Tommie is a beautiful representation of a real runner. Enjoy! Show notes + MORE Watch on YouTube Newsletter Sign-Up Today's Sponsors: WHOOP: Join now and get one month free

Join us for the Fall Feasts 5787: https://curtlandry.com/registerThere is a seat for you at the table – will you take it? In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt and Pastor Michael discuss the spiritual significance of the Hebrew Month of Tishrei, a season of new beginnings, renewal, and redemption.

He is the God who brings beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, redeeming our suffering and calling us to our true identity and Kingdom mission.This year, 5787, the Father is pouring our empowerment for His people to align our voices with His Word, bringing Heaven's perspective to earthly situations.Join Rabbi and Pastor Michael as they unpack the prophetic significance of the Tishrei and Hebrew Year 5787, how the timing of the Fall Feasts is a spiritual wake-up call for America, and what it means to anticipate both resistance and reward during this season.

On this week's episode of the Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris are joined by England, Nottingham Forest and Manchester City legend Stuart Pearce — aka Psycho — for a proper trip down memory lane.Stuart opens up about his remarkable journey from playing non-league football and working as an electrician to becoming a professional footballer, England international and one of the most recognisable defenders of his generation. He tells the story of how a chance encounter with Brian Clough eventually led to his move to Nottingham Forest, and how the famous “Psycho” nickname came about.The lads also get into Stuart's England career, including the highs and lows of Italia '90 and Euro '96, his infamous penalty miss against Germany, and the emotional redemption of scoring from the spot against Spain six years later. Stuart explains why the experience of missing that penalty stayed with him — and how it ultimately changed the way he approached pressure, failure and success.Away from football, there are some brilliant Stuart Pearce stories too, from his love of punk music and a particularly surreal night at a gig in Moscow, to travelling to North Korea and his obsession with seeing as much of the world as possible.And, of course, there's plenty of classic Crouch Podcast chat along the way — including hedge diving, football stickers, Stuart's legendary toughness and some seriously good dressing-room and Cloughy stories.A fascinating conversation with one of English football's great characters.Chumbawamba- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 0:00 – Pete, Sids & Chris are back – plus a huge guest03:30 – Sids with Carlo and Tuchel?!05:30 – Shaniqua's Box returns with a very unusual giveaway07:43 – Stuart Pearce joins the podcast12:00 – Stuart's wild Russia trip & Rise Against gig16:00 – North Korea, travelling the world & hedge diving20:00 – From electrician to professional footballer24:00 – Taking a pay cut to play in the top division28:00 – The Crazy Gang wanted Stuart Pearce32:00 – Brian Clough discovers “Psycho”36:00 – Pearce's tackling, referees & Nobby Solano40:00 – Stuart Pearce's England debut & representing his country44:00 – Italia 90, Euro 96 & England's feel-good factor48:00 – The penalty miss that haunted Stuart Pearce52:00 – Redemption against Spain & fighting for England56:00 – Life after playing & the lessons of failure1:02:00 – Pearce's penalty research & changing England's shootouts1:08:00 – The transfer that could have changed everything1:14:00 – David James up front?!

In this week's LPL Market Signals, Chief Fixed Income Strategist Lawrence Gillum and Chief Economist Jeff Roach talk key takeaways from last week's Jackson Hole Symposium. After weeks of market doubt, Chair Kevin Warsh used Jackson Hole to put inflation first, retire regular forward guidance, and say the Fed still “has work to do.” Traders took it as a credibility reset: September hike odds jumped from the mid-30s toward a coin flip or better, two-year yields rose, the dollar firmed, and gold slipped, while the long end stayed relatively contained. The strategists unpack whether that reaction was justified, what the next jobs and inflation prints must show, and how advisors should talk with clients about cash, duration, and rate volatility from here.

How do you rebuild a life after the justice system takes 16 years from you for a crime you did not commit? Wrongful convictions represent one of the most devastating failures of the criminal justice system. An estimated 1% to 6% of incarcerated Americans are innocent, translating to roughly 20,000 to over 100,000 wrongfully convicted individuals currently serving time in U.S. prisons. According to data compiled by organizations like the Innocence Project and the National Registry of Exonerations, over 3,300 people have been exonerated since 1989, collectively losing more than 27,000 years behind bars. Jeffrey Deskovic knows that reality firsthand. At just 17 years old, Jeffrey was wrongfully convicted of the rape and murder of his high school classmate, Angela Correa. He spent 16 years in prison, losing much of his youth and early adulthood, before DNA evidence finally established his innocence and led to his exoneration. The DNA evidence identified Steven Cunningham as the actual perpetrator. While Jeffrey was incarcerated, Cunningham remained free and later committed another murder—an agonizing reminder that wrongful convictions can create additional victims when the real perpetrator escapes accountability. Jeffrey could have allowed those 16 stolen years to define the rest of his life. Instead, he transformed his experience into a mission. Since his exoneration, he has dedicated himself to preventing wrongful convictions, advocating for criminal justice reform, educating legal and law-enforcement professionals, and fighting to free innocent people still behind bars. He has delivered more than 100 presentations, authored more than 200 articles, participated in hundreds of media interviews, testified before lawmakers, and contributed to conversations surrounding wrongful-conviction reform and the death penalty. He also invested $1.5 million of his own compensation to establish The Deskovic Foundation, an organization dedicated to exonerating the wrongfully convicted and pursuing reforms designed to prevent future miscarriages of justice. Through its work, the Foundation has helped innocent people regain something that can never truly be replaced: their freedom. Jeffrey's pursuit of justice eventually took him somewhere particularly meaningful—the legal profession itself. After earning a B.A. in Behavioral Science and a master's degree from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, he earned his law degree from the Elizabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University, twice making the Dean's List. Today, he is a licensed attorney in New York, giving him another powerful avenue to fight directly for people who maintain their innocence. This week on Let's Have This Conversation, Jeffrey Deskovic joins me for a deeply meaningful conversation about wrongful conviction, redemption, equality, accountability, and what genuine criminal justice reform requires. We explore what happens when the institutions entrusted with delivering justice get it catastrophically wrong, the human consequences of prosecutorial and investigative failures, the reforms necessary to reduce wrongful convictions, and how Jeffrey turned unimaginable injustice into a lifelong commitment to securing justice for others. His story ultimately challenges all of us to consider a fundamental question: If justice is supposed to protect the innocent and hold the guilty accountable, what responsibility do we have to confront the system when it fails to do either?       For more information: https://www.deskovicfoundation.org/ Follow: @TheJeffreyDeskovicFoundation Watch: https://www.primevideo.com/detail/0T652A1QC6N6Y3K8WSIX2VQW2I Learn more about your ad choices.

Brian discusses the disturbing new Netflix docuseries on the death of pastor's wife Mika Miller and the alleged abuse she suffered, pushing back hard against the narrative that her husband's horrific actions represent normative evangelical teaching on marriage. He shares a Nine Marks article on how pastors and church families can protect their kids from growing bitter toward the church even after painful experiences, drawing on his own story of being let go from the church he planted. Brian highlights a viral moment of poor sportsmanship backfiring when a Texas high school football team refused to shake hands before a game and lost 38-0 at halftime, and digs into a Detroit Public Schools program paying students up to $1,000 a year just for attendance amid a chronic absenteeism crisis. He shares a moving Christianity Today profile of former MLB star Daryl Strawberry, whose journey from addiction and prison to prison ministry now brings hope to society's most forgotten, plus a Gospel Coalition reflection on the surprising peace found in intentionally not knowing answers by blocking search engines, and closes with a Charles Stanley devotional on the practice of listening for God's voice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brian Burke got into corrections in his early twenties, spent four years working inside the New York state prison system, and then spent twenty-nine years as a New York court officer — experiencing the full spectrum of what the American justice system looks like from the person responsible for maintaining order in the room where it all happens. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares what four years in the New York state prison system taught him, what twenty-nine years as a court officer — the juries, the defendants, the prosecutors, the judges, and the heartbreaking and strangest moments the job produced — really looked like from the inside, and what his most significant professional experience actually involved: personally escorting Rex Heuermann — the Gilgo Beach serial killer — throughout his arrest, conviction, and sentencing, and what that specific proximity to one of the most disturbing criminal cases in recent New York history actually revealed about the person at the center of it. _____________________________________________ #officer #truecrimestories #court #newyork _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

For this episode, we handed the podcast studio over to one of our UCLA interns from the Luskin School of Public Affairs, Mei-Mei Barnhardt.  She interviews Marc Novick who brings a wealth of lived experience to his role as a case manager for Project 180, a program that is focused upon diversion and reentry programs for people involved in the criminal justice system.  Since late last year, Heart Forward has been involved in a Hilton Foundation-funded project which involves taking a deeper look at the residential ecosystem that is connected to LA County's Office of Diversion and Reentry (ODR).   This program, working in concert with Superior Court judges in the criminal and mental health courts, offers programs that divert individuals with serious mental, physical or behavioral health needs from jail into community-based care, housing and supportive services. The Heart Forward team, as part of this project, has been visiting various service providers who staff these residential placements, and when we visited Project 180's Crescent House last fall, one enthusiastic member of the case management team captured our attention.  That was Marc.  Mei-Mei, in particular, was drawn to his positive energy and asked if she could meet with him to learn more about his life.  As she relayed back to us the substance of their three-hour meeting – where he candidly shared his challenges with family trauma and addition, starting at a very young age, we thought he would be a great candidate for an interview.  And, in the spirit of promoting student learning, we offered Mei-Mei the opportunity to take the reins in the podcast studio. His journey out of addiction is inspirational, and undergirds the role he plays as a peer supporter with other men facing similar life challenges.  With special recognition to our key sponsors:Presenting Sponsor, Tony HaleCommunity Impact Sponsor, Peter LizotteAnd a special thank you to those who have helped to make this season possible:Sarah Dusseault, Brian Folb, Dave Pilon, Nick Halaris, Jae Lee and David Israelian.

What does it look like to forgive when the hurt runs deep, and how can we keep walking in forgiveness when painful feelings return? Through Jesus' teaching in Matthew 18 and the remarkable testimony of Corrie ten Boom, we see that forgiveness is not merely an emotion but an act of faith and obedience empowered by the Holy Spirit. As we remember how freely God has forgiven us for Christ's sake, we can forgive those who have wounded us, and trust God with the healing process. Forgiveness may happen in a moment while healing takes time, but as forgiven people, we are called to forgive—believing that Christ can free our hearts from bitterness and lead us into His peace, love, and freedom.

Redemption

As the gospel of John comes to a close, a resurrected Jesus gives his disciples peace, purpose, and power. Then Jesus spends some critical moments with his friend, Peter, to redeem his failure. From John 20-21

The Unchanging Blessing | Pastor Jonathan MorganWhat does it mean to live under the blessing of God? In this message, Pastor Jonathan Morgan continues teaching from Galatians 3, revealing that the blessing of Abraham is part of the gospel and is received through faith in Jesus Christ.From Abraham to Adam, Scripture shows us that God's blessing is more than a feeling—it is His power at work in our lives. It empowers us to be fruitful, multiply, overcome limitations, and walk in what God has provided through redemption.Your circumstances may change. Your location may change. The economy may change. But the blessing of God is not dependent on what is happening around you. Through Christ, we have been redeemed from the curse so that the blessing of Abraham might come upon us.In this message:• The blessing of Abraham and the gospel• Righteousness and blessing by faith• What God's blessing produces• Redemption from the curse• Living blessed regardless of circumstances• The power of God to bring fruitfulness and increase“The blessing of the Lord brings wealth, without painful toil for it.” — Proverbs 10:22 NIV___________________________Sundays at 8:30 & 10:30 AMWe are branded by the fire of God.

It's possible to follow all the rules and still have a heart far from God. In Mark 7, Jesus confronts a religious system that had become more committed to its traditions than to the heart of God. But then He takes it even deeper: our biggest problem isn't the evil around us—it's the sin already […]

Following Jesus isn't a negotiation. We don't get to set the terms, hold onto certain parts of our lives or simply swap a few habits. Jesus came for our hearts, and His invitation is to surrender everything. In this message from Matthew 22, we're reminded that the question isn't just what we believe about Jesus, but whether He is truly Lord of our lives. When we stop playing games, stop negotiating and give it all back to Him, that's where true life is found.

Brett Knight has spent his career standing in the space between justice and grace. A former criminal defence attorney who later became an ordained pastor and author, Brett has watched the drug epidemic up close from both sides of the courtroom. In this conversation with Rodney Olsen, he traces his own faith journey from head knowledge to a genuine relationship with Christ, and shares the pivotal moment as a prosecutor when he asked God to let him see addiction the way God sees it.   Brett's book, From the Gavel to Grace, grew out of hundreds of real encounters with people trapped in addiction, and the families desperate for answers. In this episode he unpacks the true meaning of tough love, the boundaries that protect without abandoning, the reasons churches often struggle to welcome people in recovery, and the "sin snobbery" that keeps many of us from extending the grace we've received ourselves. Alongside stories of heartbreaking loss, Brett offers real accounts of restoration that continue to fuel his conviction that no one is beyond reach.   Brett Knight's Website

Psalm 82 confronts us with a God who sees injustice and calls His people to see it too. In a world where power can be misused, where the vulnerable can be overlooked, and where justice can feel out of reach, this Psalm reminds us that God stands above every authority and holds every ruler accountable. What does it look like to live faithfully when the world around us feels anything but fair? Psalm 82 invites us to trust the God who judges rightly and to take seriously His call to defend the weak, care for the vulnerable, and pursue what is good. But Psalm 82 ultimately points us beyond the broken systems and imperfect people around us to the perfect King who is coming. Our hope isn't found in human power, political influence, or our ability to fix everything ourselves. Our hope is found in Jesus—the One who reigns with perfect justice, brings redemption where there is brokenness, and calls His people to live differently in the world. As we sit with Psalm 82, we're invited to ask not only, ""What's wrong with the world?"" but also, ""How is God calling me to live in it?"" Join us as we discover what it means to trust God's justice, reflect His heart, and live faithfully under the reign of Jesus.

Topic: Justification Whiskey Review: Monkey Shoulder the Original Check out our Substack: Manhood Neat Podcast  Follow us on all your podcast platforms and: Instagram: @manhoodneat X: Manhood Neat (@ManhoodNeat) / X Youtube: Manhood, Neat Podcast - YouTube Reach out: manhood.neat@gmail.com   Show Notes: Justification Salvation Justification - Sanctification - Glorification How are the benefits of the cross transferred into our lives or how does that saving work become ours? We are declared right before God by faith in Jesus Christ alone.  Justification by faith.  We do not achieve righteousness. We receive it.  The Performance Reward System Eph. 2:8-10 “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” We are trained from early life to think about how performance produces reward.  From childhood on we learn: Behave well and receive praise Achieve and receive recognition Fail and experience disappointment Perform and prove your worth This framework has quietly shaped how we approach God.  Eph 2 destroys that logic. Its Salvation: By grace Through faith Not from ourselves Not by works Good works matter, but they come after Salvation, not before it.  They are the evidence of salvation and part of sanctification, not the basis. Have I done enough? No. Christ has.  The only thing we bring to our salvation is the sin that requires it A disciple obeys from acceptance, not for acceptance.  The Righteousness of God: Just and Justifier Rom. 3:21-26 “But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in[a] Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[b] through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.” “The righteousness of God” is often misunderstood.  “God is righteous and we are sinful” This drives us into religious performance, trying to please a God that we fear we can never please. God feels: Difficult to please Perpetually disappointed Constantly evaluating Always waiting for improvement God is not only just, He is also the One who justifies. He gives us righteousness.  Our confidence must lie in Christ's completed work, not in our ability to satisfy.  God does not look at sinners and pretend no crime occurred.  We are “guilty as charged” And immediately we are told “ You are free. The payment has been made” Justice has not been ignored. It has been satisfied.  Forgiveness/Justification is not divine denial.  God remains perfectly just while also justifying sinners.  Redemption and Propitiation: Justice Meets Mercy Rom. 3:24-25 “24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[a] through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—” Redemption is the price paid to set someone free. Christ's life becomes the ransom price for ours.  Propitiation is the satisfaction of righteous anger. We do not provide the sacrifice to satisfy God. The Father gave the Son  Christ bears the penalty Justice is satisfied Mercy is extended The cross says two things at once: Sin is more serious than we want to believe God loves us more deeply than we dare to imagine.  Faith in Jesus Christ Rom. 3: 21-31 “21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in[a] Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[b] through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith. 28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too, 30 since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith. 31 Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law. Faith is the means by which the righteousness of Christ becomes ours. Faith is not: Temporary dependence Not an emergency phone call An intellectual agreement Knowing Christian facts is not the same thing as trusting yourself to Christ.  Saving faith has an object: Christ Do I have faith? Where or what is your faith placed in? Faith is an admission of Bankruptcy Saving faith means recognizing that our spiritual account is overdrawn We are bankrupt. Works-based religion says: “Let me show God I can make this right” Faith says” “ I have nothing with which to make myself right” Saving faith is abandoning self-righteousness and ego and throwing ourselves at the foot of the cross and asking for mercy.  We all come to Christ the same way. Empty handed.  There is no room for spiritual superiority when everybody got in the same way.  Faith Produces Obedience - Sanctification Rom. 1:5 “5 Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from[a] faith for his name's sake.” Faith is not passive. Faith means putting our entire life at Christ's disposal. Trust Dependence Commitment Surrender Obedience does not create justification Real faith does produce an obedient life.  Grace and obedience are not enemies.  Works cannot save us.  Resting in the Finished Verdict.  Rom. 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,” We can trust ourselves: Our goodness Our effort Our ability to control outcomes Our religious performance. Or we can trust Christ. To trust in Christ means to relinquish control and receive His righteousness as a gift.  Christ righteousness has credited our account and we are “Paid in full” Justification gives us something the performance-reward system never can: Rest.  No more endless “Have I done enough?” We stop trying to impress God. We live faithfully because Christ has secured a place for us before God.  Closing Thoughts: Justification means the full truth about us is known: Guilty.  And because of Christ, another verdict is spoken: Free.  The righteousness we could never produce has been given to us.  Questions: Where do I still approach God through a performance-reward mindset? When I fail, do I run toward God or try and fix things myself? What am I most tempted to trust besides Christ? Where should my faith be producing more visible obedience?

Everyone is invited to experience redemption—but someone has to offer the invitation. In Luke 14, Jesus shares a story to highlight how we're to personally, urgently, and passionately invite others. Once we've experienced redemption, we're called to bring in others to experience it too!

ROOTED | Rooted in DiscernmentIn a world filled with competing voices, shifting values, and growing instability, how do followers of Jesus remain grounded? In 2 Peter, the apostle calls believers to be firmly established in the truth, growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. This series explores how a deeply rooted faith enables us to discern truth from error, resist spiritual drift, and live with confidence and hope until Christ returns.Jeremy Olimb | Lead PastorAugust 30, 2026

Acts 15 shows us a poignant picture of the brokenness and wreckage that still exists in the Church. But what this passage reminds us is that the wreckage never gets the final word. Because the brokenness of Christ's people cannot stop the faithfulness of Christ to His people. Jesus is more faithful than His servants are broken.

Can we trust that God is good? Pastor Duane Brooks preaches from the book of Genesis on humanity's rebellion in the garden and God's redemptive response. Through it, we see the nature of temptation, the cost of mistrusting God, and God's relentless pursuit to cover our shame, even when we fall short.

Family can be one of life's greatest blessings, but it can also be one of its greatest challenges. Every relationship we have, whether with a spouse, children, parents, or friends, is shaped by mutual submission, our own choices, and our character. In Ephesians 5 and 6, Paul reminds us that healthy relationships don't begin with changing the people around us. They begin with allowing Jesus to change us. When we follow Christ, we learn to love sacrificially, honor faithfully, forgive generously, and serve selflessly.

Passage: Job 42In Job's final chapter, he moves from hearing about God to seeing Him—and finally repents in dust and ashes. God forgives him, restores him, and even makes him the mediator for his friends. This message calls us to real repentance, faithful endurance in misfortune, and trust that every blessing is grace, not something God owes us.Key Takeaways:Repentance begins with the recognition of our error, and ends with the physical display of change.Repentance is a grieving process, in which we must mourn our failure, and accept grace.Even at our worst, we must remain faithful to God.This, like all blessings, isn't obligatory, but a gracious act of a loving God.

When crisis hits—whether a sudden wildfire evacuation, an unexpected medical report, or economic uncertainty—we are confronted with a truth we usually try to ignore: our bank accounts, achievements, and self-reliance cannot buy us out of the grave. In this expositional sermon on Psalm 49, we explore the universal human struggle with mortality, wealth, and fear. While no human fortune can pay the ransom for a soul, God provided the ultimate ransom through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Discover how resting in Christ's completed work frees us from envy, fear, and misplaced trust in a fragile world.
