    On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Rabbi Jason Sobel for a powerful conversation about his book Transformed by the Messiah. Raised in a Jewish family in Long Island, Rabbi Jason Sobel shares his unexpected spiritual journey and how discovering Jesus as the Messiah brought about dramatic transformation in his life. We dive into how connecting the dots between the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament reveals God's intentional story, and why faith isn't just about information...it's about experiencing deep change. Rabbi Jason Sobel discusses the importance of oneness, the link between forgiveness and healing, and how spiritual truth can bring hope and meaning in our everyday lives. If you're searching for real transformation and spiritual clarity, this episode offers inspiration and practical wisdom for anyone ready to step into their own story of change.   About Rabbi Jason, Rabbi Jason Sobel grew up in a Jewish home in New Jersey. In his late teens, Jason set out on a quest to discover the truth. After years of study, he discovered and embraced his true destiny as a Jewish follower of Jesus. As the founder of Fusion Global, Jason's purpose is to bring people's understanding of Jesus into high-definition by revealing the lost connection to our Hebrew roots and restoring our forgotten inheritance in Him. Rabbi Jason received his Rabbinic messianic ordination in 2005 and has a BA in Jewish Studies and an MA in Intercultural Studies. He is the spiritual advisor to The Chosen TV series and host of several TBN programs. He is the author of several books—including national best-sellers Mysteries of the Messiah and The God of the Way—and a much-anticipated new release in the fall of 2025. Rabbi Jason also leads and organizes rabbinic study tours to Israel and Greece at rockroadrabbitours.com.

    Belonging is not something you arrive at. It is something you build. In this episode of Walk-In Talk Media, Carl Fiadini sits down in studio with Marina Baronas, hospitality leader and author of A New Life, A New Menu: An Almanac of Belonging. Raised across Lithuania, Russia, and Azerbaijan, Marina came to the United States at nineteen without speaking English and built a life through the unseen work of hospitality. Her journey moves through kitchens, dining rooms, leadership, motherhood, burnout, and reinvention, offering an honest look at service as lived experience, not performance. Joining the conversation is Chef Carl Riding, who came up through hotels and kitchens before stepping away from the line to build Crab Island Seafood, a small, independent, chef-driven company producing elevated crab dips. Together, they explore dignity in invisible labor, identity beyond titles, redefining success without leaving hospitality, and why this industry continues to feel like home even after it takes its toll. This episode is for anyone who has carried their roots across borders, worked until they were unseen, or searched for belonging inside the hospitality industry. What to Expect From This Episode Immigration, identity, and finding belonging through hospitality The emotional cost of invisible labor and long-term burnout Front of house and back of house perspectives shaped by hotels and kitchens Redefining success without walking away from the industry Why hospitality continues to feel like home, even after reinvention Brand Partners Crab Island Seafood https://www.crabislandseafooddip.com Metro Foodservice Solutions https://www.metro.com RAK Porcelain USA https://www.rakporcelain.com/usa Pass the Honey https://www.passthehoney.com Trade Show & Event Partners New York Restaurant Show https://www.nyrestaurantshow.com California Restaurant Show https://www.californiarestaurantshow.com Florida Restaurant Show https://www.flrestaurantshow.com Pizza Tomorrow Summit https://www.pizzatomorrow.com U.S. Culinary Open (NAFEM Show) https://www.usculinaryopen.com Cause Partners We Support The Burnt Chef Project https://www.theburntchefproject.com Operation BBQ Relief https://operationbbqrelief.org Hogs for the Cause https://hogsforthecause.org Sustainable Supperclub https://www.sustainablesupperclub.org

    Today I'm chatting with the oh-so-talented out recording artist Cornelius Versa. Raised on a soundtrack of LeAnn Rimes, Brooks & Dunn, and Verdi, Cornelius blends country storytelling with the drama of his classical roots. His debut album, “The Crystal Cowboy,” is a wide-open jukebox of heartache, rebellion, and queer identity, tracing the road to finally finding his voice. At its core, the new collection is a country album, but the listening experience is bigger than that blending touches of classical arrangements, opera, folk, rock, and pop — or as he likes to call it, “Operatic Americana.” “The Crystal Cowboy,” is available now on all major music platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music. You can find him on Instagram at instagram.com/corneliusversa, his official website corneliusversa.com, and on YouTube at youtube.com/@corneliusversa

    I am SO excited about this episode. I got to sit down with Rian Johnson to talk about Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, and honestly? This might be my favorite conversation I've had all year. Not just because it's a blast of a film (which it absolutely is), but because Rian brought so much theological depth and personal wrestling to this project. I'm always looking for that sweet spot where great storytelling meets profound questions about faith, power, community, and what it means to be human. This film? It's the jackpot. I literally told Rian I now have an excuse to show a movie I genuinely enjoy in class and call it “movie day.” You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube The Film: Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery is now streaming on Netflix. Watch it. It's spectacular. Rian Johnson is an acclaimed writer-director best known for creating the Knives Out mystery franchise, including Knives Out (2019), Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022), and Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025). His work is characterized by genre-bending storytelling that weaves together intricate plots with deep thematic exploration. Johnson's other notable films include Brick (2005), a neo-noir set in a high school; Looper (2012), a science fiction thriller; and Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017). He also directed several critically acclaimed episodes of Breaking Bad, including the Emmy-winning “Ozymandias.” Raised in the evangelical church, Johnson draws on his formative religious experiences to explore themes of grace, moral complexity, and the tension between reason and faith in his work. He cites influences ranging from G.K. Chesterton's Father Brown mysteries to Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell's work on storytelling and myth. Known for his meticulous approach to storytelling—he still writes his screenplays longhand in notebooks—Johnson creates films that function as both wildly entertaining genre exercises and thoughtful examinations of contemporary moral and social questions. ⁠Join us at Theology Beer Camp, October 8-10, in Kansas City!⁠⁠ ⁠UPCOMING ONLINE CLASS: The Rise of the Nones⁠ One-third of Americans now claim no religious affiliation. That's 100 million people.  But here's what most church leaders get wrong: they're not all the same. Some still believe in God. Some are actively searching. Some are quietly indifferent.

    Tom and I talk about the moment I turned down a multimillion dollar cash-out offer and instead decided to raise twenty million dollars and buy control of Somewhere.com. I walk through how that deal came together, how I borrowed nine million from the founder, structured the investor tranches, and rebuilt the leadership team while still running Bolt Storage and RE Cost Seg. We get into why I believed the company could become a publicly traded business and how my media brand helped me raise over forty million for storage, somewhere and other deals. I also explain how I split my time across multiple companies, why I spend 350k a year on my personal media team, and how building a brand on X completely accelerated my career.

    How I Got Here with Dave Fiore

    Host Dave Fiore speaks with David Clark, owner of Allegiant Strategies Group and MyGovGuide. The Tallahassee-area native is a former military officer and entrepreneur with a passion for leadership and making the most of every opportunity. David began his career answering phones at the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, saw opportunities to make himself invaluable and eventually was named Deputy Chief of Staff to Gov. Ron DeSantis, which included helping deliver Florida's response to the worldwide pandemic. Raised by a World War II veteran father and a mother from British Guiana, David learned early the value of hard work, humility and learning from others. That perspective carried him into the Army, where he graduated at the top of his class and allowed him to choose his assignment to the 82nd Airborne to honor his father. After a parachute malfunction and traumatic brain injury ended his military service, David transitioned into entrepreneurship. They talk about being coachable, servant leadership and the importance of mentorship, faith, and most of all, family. The conversation also covers David's decision to start multiple companies—including Allegiant Strategies Group, MyGovGuide, and also Divergent Solutions, all while pursuing concurrent MBA degrees. When it comes to tackling new challenges, David's philosophy is actually pretty simple. He just asks himself, "Why not, why not me, and why not now."

    In this episode, conservationist and filmmaker Tom Opre sits down with Mark Sather, a longtime Montana sportsman and employee of the Sieben Livestock Company, to unpack one of the most volatile and misunderstood issues in Western conservation: access, entitlement, and responsibility. Raised hunting the Gates of the Mountains and the Bob Marshall, Sather brings a generational sportsman's perspective shaped by years working inside a large, wildlife-rich cattle operation. He speaks candidly about what happens when public wildlife, private land, federal agencies, state managers, and modern hunting technology collide—sometimes literally—with helicopters, drones, and rising tensions in the field. The conversation moves deep into block management, helicopter access to landlocked public ground, changing hunter behavior, and the real-world consequences ranchers face when gates are left open, cattle are displaced, and trust breaks down. Sather also explains how proactive management—cow elk harvests, hazing with drones, and collaboration with Fish & Game—can reduce conflict while still putting meat in freezers. This is not a theoretical discussion. It's a ground-level look at how conservation actually works—or fails—when emotion, politics, and entitlement replace humility, stewardship, and dialogue. If you care about hunting, public land, private land, and the future of wildlife in the American West, this is a conversation you need to hear.

MJ Cole reflects on his classical upbringing, his early love for hardcore and jungle, and how discovering slower tempos helped shape his signature sound. He shares how he keeps creativity fresh by avoiding autopilot in the studio, constantly experimenting with new tempos, tools, and sound-design techniques. They also revisit the journey behind “Sincere,” his breakthrough single and album, and discuss the realities of performing live, where passion often outweighs profit. Despite the industry's pressures, MJ Cole emphasizes that he has never wanted to quit because his drive comes from true artistic expression.Who is MJ Cole: The 90s reshaped UK culture with garage, jungle and more, and MJ Cole stood at the center with a 2-step sound that influenced grime, dubstep and artists like The xx. His breakout hit “Sincere” became one of the first garage tracks to reach the UK top 40, leading to a career producing for Dizzee Rascal, Katy B, Becky Hill, Stormzy, and co-writing Mary J Blige's “Nobody But You.” Raised in a musical West London home and trained at the Royal College of Music, Cole blended classical skill with electronic experimentation, eventually landing at Sound of the Underground and scoring chart success with “Crazy Love.” Today he stays focused on new ideas, pushing his sound through collaborations like AJ Tracey's “The Rumble,” releases on labels like Method White, and his own imprint 892, all while championing underground artists and music that feels real and connected.⏲ Follow Will Clarke ⏱https://djwillclarke.com/https://open.spotify.com/artist/1OmOdgwIzub8DYPxQYbbbi?si=hEx8GCJAR3mhhhWd_iSuewhttps://www.instagram.com/djwillclarkehttps://www.facebook.com/willclarkedjhttps://twitter.com/djwillclarkehttps://www.tiktok.com/@djwillclarke Hosted on Acast.

    In this powerful and deeply moving episode of the Rooted in Christ Podcast, Eric Stephens sits down with Mick Wienholt to share a testimony shaped by unimaginable loss, raw grief, and God's relentless pursuit.Mick opens up about the tragic stillbirth of his firstborn son, Luke—a moment that shattered his world and forced him to confront a truth he could no longer avoid: what he thought was a Luke-shaped hole in his heart was actually a God-shaped one. Raised around Christianity but without a real relationship with Jesus, Mick describes how that moment of desperation on a hospital floor became the beginning of true surrender.Through honest storytelling, Mick walks us through:Crying out to God for the first time in genuine desperationHow grief became the doorway to real prayer and authentic faithThe transformation of his marriage, priorities, and daily lifeLearning to trust God's plan after loss, miscarriage, and high-risk pregnanciesThe difference between believing about God and living in obedience to HimThis episode dives deep into themes of suffering, obedience, surrender, and redemption—reminding us that Jesus meets us not after the mess is cleaned up, but right in the middle of it.Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of stillbirth, miscarriage, and grief.Part 2 is coming, where Mick will share even more about God's miraculous protection over his life and the calling that followed.If you've ever questioned God in pain, struggled with control, or wondered if He can redeem your darkest moments—this conversation is for you.

    Send us a textFor today's episode we got to read another fictional running story. These are rare but we've enjoyed every single one we read so far and this one was no exception.Toeing the start line of the 1983 Boston Marathon, Cooper McKenzie (the main character) finds himself in a race to make meaning of his troubled, unimpressive life. Cooper McKenzie is contending with the stark realities of middle age—he is fully disenchanted with his career, he is struggling to meet the financial needs of his young family, and he has accumulated an unbearable number of “what ifs” and regrets. Staring down a serious medical diagnosis, Cooper takes inventory of the pivotal moments of his life—things left unfinished, unfortunate outcomes, and a negative sense of self. He resolves to rewrite his script of failure even as his own body is failing him. A story of resilience builds as Cooper makes his way to the start of the Boston Marathon to run a distance he has never attempted, let alone completed. His reasons for risking it all to finish are painfully clear, but with such high stakes, finishing could mean the end. The Road to Redemption captures a personal journey that is altogether universal. We must traverse our lived experience, particularly those moments of vulnerability and shame, to reach the end goal of knowing the truth of what we can do and who we are.In this episode we had two guests... Tom's son, Matt Fitzgerald (yes, the same Matt Fitzgerald who has written more than 30 books about endurance), was there to help with questions if needed and Tom's other son, Sean, was in the background to help set up the technology. I guess we had 3 guests? Tom Fitzgerald doesn't always write about running but has his own impressive resume. He has authored a wide-ranging collection of impactful books, including the bestselling novel Chocolate Charlie, the popular fitness title Get Tough!, and the critically acclaimed Poor Richard's Lament. Raised in Upstate New York on the St. Lawrence River, Fitzgerald completed a series of solo open-water swims in his late teens and early 20s before joining the United States Navy and serving in Vietnam as a member of the Special Forces. He later ran the Boston Marathon three times. Fitzgerald began working on Road to Redemption (originally titled A Private Agony) in 1982, completing the novel after a lengthy hiatus at the urging of the second of his three sons, Matt Fitzgerald, himself the author of many books on running.If you'd like to learn more about the author, his website is: https://www.kingsleybooks.infoIf you'd like to see some of the othLink for 20% discount on Caffeine Bullet https://caffeinebullet.com/RUNNINGBOOK Discount automatically applied and visible on checkoutSupport the showAny feedback or suggestions on this review or any of our other podcast episodes would be greatly welcomed.

Raised on native range south of the Moose Mountains, this herd is known for cattle that are hardy, functional, and built for real-world ranch conditions. Why Moose Creek Genetics Stand Out For over five decades, the Ippolito family has focused on the traits that truly matter: Maternal strength with females that consistently raise high-quality calves Longevity to thrive in tough environments Fertility and efficiency for low-maintenance, easy-keeping cattle Proven performance in both purebred and commercial herds No shortcuts—just reliable genetics that keep customers coming back. 2025 Moose Creek Red Angus Herd Dispersal This complete dispersal includes: Bred heifers and cows Bull and heifer calves Pregnant recipients Herd bulls Semen and embryos Whether you're building a maternal-focused purebred herd or improving commercial replacements, these genetics offer long-term value and herd-shaping potential.

The move came Saturday through an executive order. It directs both the Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission to form separate task forces, each charged with taking “all necessary and appropriate actions” to look into the food supply chain. That includes examining whether foreign ownership in food-related industries is driving up grocery prices or posing a national or economic security risk. In the order, Trump said anti-competitive behavior — especially by companies under foreign control — threatens the stability and affordability of America's food supply. He pointed to past settlements in which some companies paid millions to resolve price-fixing allegations. The administration, he said, intends to determine whether such practices are raising the cost of living for Americans and whether they pose any security concerns. The President also said that if Attorney General Pam Bondi uncovers criminal collusion, the Justice Department could pursue criminal charges, including convening grand juries. The task forces are required to provide their first updates to Congress within 180 days, and again within the first year of the investigation. This executive order follows Trump's earlier directive for the DOJ to immediately investigate alleged collusion and price manipulation among U.S. meatpackers. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Attorney General Bondi voiced support for the effort, even as reports surfaced that a previous DOJ probe into beef-packer concentration, launched in 2020, ended without charges. According to the Wall Street Journal, Rollins, along with trade adviser Peter Navarro and Homeland Security Adviser Stephen Miller, has recently met with Trump to discuss rising beef prices.

    For her, the paranormal wasn't a surprise; it was an inheritance. She was born into a bloodline where intuition ran deeper than memory, where sensing the unseen wasn't unusual—it was expected. But nothing could have prepared her for how intimately the spirits would weave themselves into her life. From the moment a six-year-old girl saw a shadowy figure wearing her brother's Halloween mask, the line between the physical world and the one just beyond it began to blur. No matter where the family moved—new house, old house, even a pristine suburban home—the activity followed. Footsteps in empty rooms. Lights flicking with intention. Whispers threading themselves through the dark. And later, the unmistakable weight of phantom animals curling at her feet as if she were their chosen guardian. But not all presences came softly.

    For her, the paranormal wasn't a surprise; it was an inheritance. She was born into a bloodline where intuition ran deeper than memory, where sensing the unseen wasn't unusual—it was expected. But nothing could have prepared her for how intimately the spirits would weave themselves into her life. From the moment a six-year-old girl saw a shadowy figure wearing her brother's Halloween mask, the line between the physical world and the one just beyond it began to blur. No matter where the family moved—new house, old house, even a pristine suburban home—the activity followed. Footsteps in empty rooms. Lights flicking with intention. Whispers threading themselves through the dark. And later, the unmistakable weight of phantom animals curling at her feet as if she were their chosen guardian. But not all presences came softly. Some watched her more closely. Some learned her rhythms. Some seemed to be waiting. Now, standing between curiosity and caution, she realizes something profound: the spirits aren't just haunting her life— they're trying to welcome her into theirs. #ParanormalLife #GrowingUpHaunted #GenerationalSensitivity #SpiritEncounters #HauntedHomes #ShadowFigures #Medium #GhostStories #RealParanormal #Ghosts Love real ghost stories?

    What if the part of you that feels restless, uncertain, or ready for more isn't a problem to fix - but a calling from your soul inviting you higher? In this week's episode, Ashley sits down with James Robbins, leadership strategist, keynote speaker, and bestselling author of The Call to Climb. Raised on a small cattle ranch in the foothills of the Rockies, James grew up quiet, observant, and deeply connected to the natural world - but it wasn't until adulthood, after seasons of burnout, spiritual restlessness, and profound inner questioning, that he began to understand the deeper call tugging at his soul. James spent years serving in ministry, helping people while secretly wrestling with the growing sense that something in his own life was misaligned. That quiet inner discomfort became the beginning of his awakening - what he now calls “the summons of the soul,” the moment when life begins nudging you toward the path you were actually meant to walk.In this conversation, James shares how saying yes to the climb, both spiritually and physically, transformed his understanding of purpose, intuition, courage, and the fears that hold so many of us back.This inspiring dialogue offers a fresh lens on how to listen for the signs that your soul is speaking, how to honor the life you're meant for, and why every mountain, internal or external, exists to help you rise.Tune in to Episode 295 of Uncover Your Magic to explore the deeper journey of becoming who you were always meant to be. You'll hear about the moment James recognized he was living someone else's version of his life, what it really means to “slay your dragons,” and how to discern the difference between ego's voice and the quiet truth of intuition.Plus, James reveals why you must learn to create your own inner weather, and how this simple shift makes every climb possible.May this episode remind you that your soul is always guiding you, and that every nudge, whisper, and spark is an invitation to rise into your highest, most aligned self.Episode Takeaways (timestamps)00:00 – When James realized his life no longer fit his soul10:30 – Saying yes to the mountain23:00 – Intuition vs ego38:00 – Slaying fear and old identity55:00 – Creating your inner weatherResources:Connect with James: Website • Instagram • FacebookThe Call To ClimbConnect with Ashley: Website • Instagram • FacebookYour Next Move: Subscribe to the PodcastShare with a Friend: Forward or tag on socialFree Gift: Download your Easy Magical Morning Routine Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 396: In this episode, we learn about an enigmatic narcissistic psychopath who led the Californian cult called The Children of Thunder. Glenn Taylor Helzer, and the other leadership was comprised of his brother Justin Helzer and their follower Dawn Godman. Raised in a strict Mormon home, Taylor's life spiralled after years of mental health trouble. By 2000, the trio had formed a cult under Taylor's delusional leadership. That summer, they murdered Ivan and Annette Stineman, Selina Bishop (daughter of guitarist Elvin Bishop), Jennifer Villarin, and James Gamble. The crime spree and investigation shocked authorities and families, exposing how Taylor twisted faith and loyalty into violence.
