I decided to sit down and chat with my friend that I dedicated my book (14 days & 40 years) to. What a joy it is to watch her grow into an amazing woman. I met her when she had just turned 20. Watching her mature so much in 4 years makes me wonder how it has only been 4 years. I feel like I've known her so much longer because I know her much like a lifetime friend. I hope we get to be that...both of us living long lives and being able to say we've laughed and loved since she was 20.This is just a fun sit down chat where we accomplish nothing but discuss a story we both love so much. I'm so lucky to have a friend like Rainey!!

The letter of Romans strengthened the ancient church, brought reformation to the dark ages, has brought hope for 2000 years, and can change your life!This week Pastor Joel continues Part 2 of his message series in Romans, “Bold Faith That Wins”. Today we look at “Self-Examination.” We are most vulnerable when we are complacent. Too often we get hung up on prophecy instead of life change. And as we examine ourselves in this passage of scripture we should ask ourselves: 1) Have I received Grace? Am I faithful? Am I relying on myself? And where is my trust?

The letter of Romans strengthened the ancient church, brought reformation to the dark ages, has brought hope for 2000 years, and can change your life!This week Pastor Joel continues Part 2 of his message series in Romans, “Bold Faith That Wins”. What is the price of unbelief? We're afraid of failure because we've been baptized in a culture of success. Especially when it comes to sharing our faith with others. But Pastor Joel reminds us that even though we are commanded to share the good news about Jesus, sometimes there is a level of unbelief that only a miracle of God is can reverse. You should take some relief from that! What else does Paul say about unbelief, let's listen in…This is a special four part series that will span the year of 2025.

In this transformative episode of The Authentic Dentist Podcast, Dr. Allison House sits down with Dr. Lauren Yasuda Rainey, a dentist who courageously stepped away from the traditional "successful" practice model to discover what authentic fulfillment actually looks like.Dr. Rainey shares her vulnerable journey from having what appeared to be the perfect practice—fee-for-service in Berkeley, California, with intelligent, engaged patients—to the devastating realization that she had created an "expensive hobby" with a $275,534 annual write-off. This wake-up call forced her to confront the gap between external success and internal fulfillment, a theme that resonates deeply with The Authentic Dentist's mission of bridging clinical excellence with personal authenticity.Through candid conversation, Lauren reveals how working with an executive coach helped her shift from being just a provider to becoming a whole person—partner, parent, and individual. Her transformation led her to sell her practice and create a 50/50 split between clinical work and teaching composites, allowing her to be present for her children's lives while building a career that energizes rather than depletes her.This episode challenges the conventional definition of dental success and offers hope for practitioners feeling trapped in the "golden handcuffs" of ownership. Lauren's story demonstrates that authentic leadership sometimes means having the courage to step off the hamster wheel and create your own path—one that honors both professional excellence and personal fulfillment.

Real answers for your real med school dilemmas. We've had some listener question stacking up like it's the ER waiting room at shift change—and now we're finally calling some names. This week, we're clearing the board and giving straight talk on everything from whether Rainey might regret her choice of DNP over med school, Worried Traveler's fears of surviving their first clinical rotations, and Zion's untested study habits. You'll hear why reputation beats job title, the art of asking questions without tanking the vibe, and some ideas on making the transition from an easier undergrad education to med school madness. M4s Hend Al-Kaylani, Maryam Ahmad, and Madeline Ungs confront the awkward task of making friends in med school and why it's okay if you're not instantly every resident/faculty favorite.

If you fear you never learned to study, visit this episode's webpage (https://theshortcoat.com/dnp-doubts-prepping-for-patients-and-smarts-self-doubt-listener-questions-answered/) for a video series by Dave and friends–Zion, this one's for you, and everyone else out there who needs to upgrade their study techniques!

On occasion we address Covenant Church family questions during the Sunday morning message. We want to engage our folks where they are, and these questions help our pastors be more effective, by understanding where they struggle.There are many decisions Covenant makes, positions we take et al that do not make the difference between heaven and hell, and on which other churches sometimes take a different approach. Because our church is multi-denominational, we have many rich faith traditions represented among our people. In this last message of this series, Joel talks about the Holy Spirit and how it's good to have questions about Him. We'll look at: what does the Holy Spirit do, how do we receive Him, and what are the results of His work?

In this episode of The Ultimate Assist, filmmaker Dean Rainey joins John Stockton and Ken Ruettgers to discuss his powerful new documentary, Why Can't We Talk About This?—a film that dares to say what others won't.

Rainey shares what he uncovered, why he risked his career to tell the story, and what it will take to break the stigma around Covid vaccine injuries. This is a conversation the media won't have—but we will.

This episode features poet, author, and intellectual Moana ‘Ulu‘ave-Hafoka. The catalyst for this discussion was a recently released YouTube video by former Mormon author and YouTuber Alyssa Grenfell, titled Tonga is 60% Mormon??????, which has currently been viewed more than 200k times since being posted. This video references one of Moana's articles, so as nerds of Tonga, Indigeneity, and Mormonism, we wanted to add further complexity to some of what was shared on that platform. We discuss nuance, blurred boundaries, historical and cultural context, as well as Mormon specificity, and even larger structures and systems of power. We shift mid-way through this episode to engage with Ryan Coogler's film Sinners (spoilers). We discuss a variety of symbols in the film, including, the global impact of Black (African-American) culture, race, global Indigeneity, diaspora, spirituality, religion, sacred time-space, and more.   References: To be Young, Mormon, and Tongan by Moana ‘Ulu‘ave-Hafoka Kinikini, Lea Lani, Kepa Maumau, Moana Uluave-Hafoka, (2021).“Raise Your Pen: A Critical Race Essay on Truth and Justice”.  In Reppin: Youth Studies in Oceania.

Kim Davis from the Slaycation Podcast talks about the death of David Rainey and the strange actions and reactions by his family members.

Ayo! This week, the Need to Know squad links up with the multi-hyphenate Bronx legend Rainey — podcaster, rapper, skit god, and all-around creative menace. He pulls up to talk Victory Light with Mero & Lisabell, his fire new project Cigarettes For Dead Men, and why he might've lowkey inspired Metro & Future (he said what he said). We get into everything from Kenan Thompson improv stories, AI beef with The Alchemist, to growing up without pops and adapting to Dominican culture (Savon really might be biracial). Oh — and yes, we put Rainey through Dominican trivia. He held it down. This one got jokes, gems, and a lil' bit of therapy. Tap in — we cookin'.

In this message we look at the question “Why Do We Baptize That Way?” What is baptism - and why, who, and how should I be baptized?Join in as we listen to answers on difficult questions about our faith, and our church.LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:• Download the free study guide by visiting and clicking on the button "Download Study Guide"⁠• Find a complete transcript here• Scripture References: Matthew 28, verse 19; Romans 6, verses 1-4; Matthew 3, verses 16-17; Colossians 2, verses 11-12; Ephesians 2, verses 8-9• Find out more about Covenant Church at ⁠covenantexperience.com

Andrew McCutchen ties Roberto Clemente on the all-time Pirates hits list—but the celebration doesn't last long as the bullpen coughs up a late lead in a frustrating 6-4 loss to the Padres. We break down the highs (Cutch's milestone, solid starts from Cruz and Heaney) and the lows (Rainey's implosion, more questionable managing), plus how this bullpen could actually be better today. Watch the full breakdown and let us know what you would've done differently in the 8th inning.

In this episode, you'll learn: How to navigate the fear and freedom of questioning your faith Why letting go of hell might be the most spiritually honest thing you do A deeper perspective on forgiveness, ego, and reclaiming your inner divinity Isn't it kind of messed up that so many of us were traumatized as kids by the idea of eternal hell? We were just trying to be good. Trying to make sense of the world. But instead of being taught how to connect with love, we were taught how to fear God. “Narrow is the gate.”Only 144,000 get in.Lukewarm believers will be spit out.Many are called, but few are chosen. So you start asking: Am I one of the chosen? And if I am… how do I know I'm choosing this? How does that even make sense? You try to believe hard enough. You pray the right way. You do everything you're told. But deep down, you still feel unsafe. Still wonder if you'll be punished forever just for getting it wrong. John Rainey was a teaching pastor who spent decades inside the system—until one question about eternal hell cracked it wide open. What followed was a complete spiritual awakening and a return to divine love, free from fear. He's the author of Finding God, Losing God, Becoming God and host of the podcast House of Saint Rainey.
