Bring Focus to Your Refinement Meetings - Mike CohnYour team is spending too much time in product backlog refinement.How can I make such a bold claim since I didn't participate in your most recent refinement meeting? I can make it because the vast majority of teams spend too much time refining their product backlogs.So I'm playing the odds, and betting your team is among them. Teams spend too long in refinement because they misunderstand the purpose of refinement, so let's start there. As a reminder:The purpose of backlog refinement is to ensure the highest priority items are small and sufficiently understood that they can most likely be completed within a single iteration.This means that during a refinement meeting the team does not need to get answers to every conceivable question about each backlog item. Some questions can be answered during the iteration without quashing the feasibility of finishing the backlog item in the iteration.For example, suppose a team wants to know how long a failed transaction should be retried. Perhaps 30 seconds? A minute? Two? The product owner says she's not sure but she'll decide within a couple of days.Even if the team doesn't get that answer until after the iteration has begun, that's fine.The team should not need to have all questions answered or all open issues resolved before an item is brought into an iteration. In this example, whatever answer the product owner provides about the retry duration will not affect the two concerns of backlog refinement: Is the item small enough to be brought into an iteration?Is it sufficiently understood to be completed within an iteration?This means that the amount of time spent retrying failed transactions should not be discussed during refinement. (Actually it could warrant just the briefest discussion to confirm that the retry period is minutes—not months, because *that* difference could matter.)From just this example we can see that some questions do not need to be discussed during refinement. Sure, the team will eventually need to know how long the product owner wants to retry transactions. But team members don't need to know that during refinement. And they don't even necessarily need to know it before starting work on the item.Conversations between team members and their product owner during refinement should be focused on confirming an item is small and well understood. Discussions beyond that are often very fun, but they're best had either during the iteration itself or possibly the sprint planning meeting.Keeping off-topic discussions out of your refinement meetings will shorten those meetings with no adverse effect on meeting your iteration goals, which will help you succeed,The Main Reason Refinement Bogs Down Focus on the Two Concerns of Backlog Refinement How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

As Dragon Con 2025 approaches, the air is thick with anticipation, and at the center of the excitement is the incomparable Charles "Rock God of Podcasting" McFall. Known for his captivating voice, insightful conversations, and passion for all things pop culture, McFall is a podcasting pioneer who has become a beloved figure in the digital media world. He's not just a voice, but a force shaping the conversation around fandom and entertainment. In a recent discussion, McFall offered a glimpse into the incredible plans for Dragon Con 2025. This year, fans can expect an even more immersive and engaging experience, with a focus on expanded gaming, a deeper dive into literature and science, and a star-studded guest list that includes actors from hit shows like The Magicians and Supergirl. McFall's role as the Director of Digital Media at Dragon Con means he's at the forefront of amplifying these voices and bringing the magic of the convention to an even wider audience. Web: https://www.dragoncon.org/ About: Dragon Con, a titan of pop culture conventions, has a rich and fascinating history that reflects the evolution of fandom itself. What began as a small gathering of enthusiasts in a single hotel has blossomed into a multi-venue, multi-genre extravaganza that draws tens of thousands of attendees each year. The Origins: A Small Gathering of Fans (1987-1989) Dragon Con's story begins in 1987 in Atlanta, Georgia. It was founded by a group of local science fiction and gaming fans who were part of an organization called the Dragon Alliance of Gamers and Role-Players (DAGR). The convention was initially a project of this group, with a board of directors that included John Bunnell, David Cody, Robert Dennis, Mike Helba, Pat Henry, and Ed Kramer. The name "Dragon" was inspired by Kramer's home computer, a Dragon 64, which also hosted a bulletin board system that served as a central hub for the group. The inaugural Dragon*Con (as it was originally stylized) was held at the Pierremont Plaza Hotel and attracted a modest 1,400 fans. It featured notable guests like author Michael Moorcock and Dungeons & Dragons co-creator Gary Gygax, and even included a performance by Blue Öyster Cult's Eric Bloom, singing songs inspired by Moorcock. This early convention established a key tradition: a big-tent approach that brought together different facets of geek culture. The event grew quickly. By 1989, with Anne McCaffrey as the Guest of Honor, attendance had more than doubled, prompting a move to the Omni Hotel and Convention Center to accommodate the swelling crowd. Rapid Expansion and Diversification (1990s-2000s) The 1990s and 2000s saw Dragon Con's explosive growth. The convention became known for its "big tent" philosophy, bringing together fans of everything from sci-fi and fantasy to comics, gaming, and anime. Key milestones during this period include: * Move to multiple hotels: As attendance soared, the convention expanded to encompass a cluster of downtown Atlanta hotels, including the Hyatt Regency, Marriott Marquis, and Hilton Atlanta. This interconnected "campus" of hotels, linked by skywalks and bridges, became a hallmark of the Dragon Con experience.
 * The Parade: The annual Dragon Con Parade down Peachtree Street, a showcase of elaborate and creative cosplay, was first held in 2002. It has since become a beloved and widely recognized part of the convention, drawing thousands of participants and spectators. * Charitable efforts: Dragon Con established a strong charitable component, raising money for various causes. The annual Robert A. Heinlein "Pay It Forward" blood drive, which began in 2002, is consistently one of the largest convention-based blood drives in the country.
 * Programming: The number of programming tracks and events expanded exponentially, covering a vast range of topics from writing and alternate history to robotics and space science. A New Era: Growth and Refinement (2010s-Present) In 2013, the convention officially dropped the asterisk from its name, becoming "Dragon Con," following a legal restructuring that severed ties with one of the original founders. This marked a new era of management and growth. In recent years, Dragon Con has continued to thrive, reaching a pre-pandemic attendance of over 85,000 in 2019. Post-pandemic, the convention has implemented attendance caps to ensure a safer and more manageable experience for all. While still a massive event, the focus has shifted to maintaining a high-quality experience, with an emphasis on unique programming, engaging workshops, and a strong sense of community. Today, Dragon Con stands as one of the world's premier pop culture conventions. It's a place where fans can not only meet their favorite celebrities and artists but also connect with fellow enthusiasts, celebrate their passions, and immerse themselves in a vibrant, inclusive, and unforgettable weekend of geek culture.

August 2025 Energy Forecast: The Harmonic Month of Refinement – Choosing Resonance Over Residue Welcome to the August 2025 Energy Forecast. This is a month of crystalline precision—not upheaval, but refinement. What once asked to be purged has already left. Now, the focus becomes gentler, quieter, more intentional. This is not about clearing debris—it's about honoring the shape of what remains.Throughout August, you are invited into an advanced layer of vibrational discernment: choosing what resonates over what lingers. Choosing Soul truth over softened truths. Choosing to withhold what is sacred rather than overexpose your becoming. Choosing to move in alignment rather than urgency. This is the harmonic month of refinement—a calibration into clarity.We begin with Theme 1: The Frequency of Refusal, where integrity sharpens through what you no longer allow. Refusal isn't resistance—it is refinement. It is how you choose resonance over residue.Theme 2: Radiance Through Refinement reminds us that strength doesn't always roar. Sometimes, it hums. Power this month emerges through subtleties—through micro-calibrations, inner precision, and the quiet authority of coherence.With Theme 3: Soul Silence, movement may slow, but the signal becomes strong. In this space of sacred stillness, inner instruction amplifies. You are not stuck. You are receiving.Theme 4: Prismatic Core Alignment brings the full spectrum of your Soul online. The lightline becomes color. The tone becomes image. You begin to see and feel your unique Soul frequency, not just intuit it.Theme 5: The Edge of Expression is a moment of sacred risk. What has remained internal now presses outward—through voice, vision, vulnerability. The throat and solar plexus harmonize to let your Soul lead in form.Yet, Theme 6: The Sacred Act of Withholding teaches a parallel truth: Not all that is received must be shared. Energetic privacy becomes a power. Sometimes, the most aligned action is non-disclosure.Theme 7: Harmonic Extraction guides you in removing what no longer fits—not with force, but with gentle precision. This is frequency surgery: releasing without trauma, disruption, or backlash.Theme 8: Timeline Shedding arrives with love. It invites the graceful dissolution of Soul assignments that have reached completion. Not with guilt or fear—but with deep gratitude and readiness.We close the month with Theme 9: Embodied Reverberation—where the refinement becomes rhythm. There is no more input needed. You walk now as the tone you've chosen. Your field carries what you've become.This August is not about initiation. It is about reverberation. Not about force—but frequency. Not about urgency—but purity.You are not becoming new. You are refining what's true.You are not here to rush. You are here to resonate.—

In this episode, I'm speaking directly to the Kingdom Creatives; you know who you are. If you feel that fire in your bones to speak, build, write, or launch something for the Kingdom, this one's for you. We're diving deep into the journey of what I call the Roaring Bride, those of us being refined in hiddenness, shaped in the wilderness, and prepared for something greater than comfort or applause. If you've been asking, “Why am I still in this hard season?” let me remind you: the wilderness isn't punishment. It's preparation. I'll walk you through what it really looks like to submit to the process, lean into intimacy with the Lord, and discover your true roar, the one that doesn't come from striving, but from abiding.  If you're ready to launch your podcast, monetize your message, and fund the ministry God has called you to roar—join us at resistandroar.com.

User Stories sind aus der agilen Produktentwicklung kaum wegzudenken, dennoch verursachen sie regelmäßig Reibung, Missverständnisse oder sogar echten Schaden im Entwicklungsprozess. In dieser Folge schauen sich Oliver und Tim die größten Fehler bei der Arbeit mit User Stories an und sprechen offen darüber, wie sie selbst immer wieder in diese Fallen getappt sind. Ein häufiger Fehler beginnt schon beim Schreiben: Statt sich gemeinsam ein Bild vom Nutzerproblem zu machen, werden Storys im stillen Kämmerlein formuliert und (nur) in Schriftform ins Sprint Planning gebracht. Dabei soll die Story eher ein Erinnerungspunkt für ein Gespräch sein, nicht das Gespräch ersetzen. Die Diskussion über das zugrundeliegende Problem, also das gemeinsame Verstehen der Nutzerbedürfnisse – ist der Schlüssel. Storytelling und entwickeln von Problemempathie mit dem Team führen zu besseren Lösungen. Und genau dafür braucht es ein Gespräch, kein perfekt ausgefülltes Template oder "Ticket". Der nächste Trugschluss: User Stories müssten irgendwie "abgenommen" werden. Diese Idee stammt noch aus einer Projektlogik und widerspricht dem agilen Grundgedanken. Akzeptanzkriterien dienen nicht als Vertrag, sondern als Einladung zur gemeinsamen Einschätzung: Haben wir das gemeinsam verstandende Problem gut genug gelöst? Abnahme-Rituale im Sprint Review mit "Daumen hoch oder runter" führen hier meist in die Irre. Vielmehr geht es um Reflexion ob die gefundene Lösung zum Nutzerproblem passt – im besten Fall sogar mit Feedback der eigentlichen Nutzer:innen. Besonders schädlich wird es, wenn Product Owner anfangen, in User Stories ihre Lösungen dertailliert vorzugeben. Dann bleibt wenig Raum für Kreativität oder bessere Ideen aus dem Team. Eine gute User Story wird im Problemraum formuliert und darf dabei auch gerne eine LösungsIDEE mitbringen. Sie macht Wirkung und Ziel verständlich – nicht den genauen Umsetzungspfad. Wenn alles schon vorgegeben ist, gibt es keine echte Zusammenarbeit mehr. Auch beim Schneiden von User Stories wird viel Potenzial verschenkt. Zu große Storys, die sich über mehrere Sprints ziehen, nehmen uns die Chance für kurzfristiges Feedback und verlangsamen damit die Lernkurve. Und wenn denn geschnitten wird sorgen horizontale Schnitte entlang technischer Komponenten eher für Abhängigkeiten statt echten Mehrwert. Der Weg zu kleinen, vertikal geschnittenen Storys ist nicht immer leicht, aber entscheidend für schnelles Feedback bzgl. der erwünschten Wirkung (Outcome). Und dann wäre da noch das "Connextra"-Template. Es kann helfen, den Einstieg zu finden. Aber wer alles in das Format "Als (Nutzer) möchte ich…, damit …" zwängt, läuft Gefahr, das Denken zu verengen. Nicht jede Aufgabe ist eine User Story und nicht jede User Story braucht eine feste Form in diesem Template. Es braucht ein Gefühl für das Problem, nicht nur eine korrekt ausgefüllte Schablone. Der größte Fehler ist oft der Versuch, mit der falschen Haltung an User Stories heranzugehen. Wenn das Format über das Verständnis gestellt wird, wenn Gespräche durch Jira-Tickets ersetzt werden, wenn Stories zu Mikro-Aufträgen oder Fachfeinspezifikationen verkommen, geht der Sinn für die Arbeit mit User Stories verloren. User Stories sind ein Mittel zur Zusammenarbeit, kein bürokratischer Selbstzweck. Wer das versteht, nutzt sie, um gemeinsam zu denken, nicht nur um Aufgaben ans Team zu dokumentieren. In dieser Folge wurde auf eine ganze Reihe früherer Episoden verwiesen: - Erfolgreich mit User Stories arbeiten - Wer nimmt User Stories ab? - User Story Splitting: Wie geht das "richtig"? - Arten von Product-Backlog-Einträgen: Was gibt's neben User Stories noch? - Akzeptanzkriterien richtig einsetzen - Mit Storytelling andere von Deinen Produktideen überzeugen Welche Fehler bei der Arbeit mit User Stories beobachtest du in deinem Team bzw. hast sie überwunden? Was funktioniert bei euch gut – und was weniger? Wir sind gespannt auf deine Erfahrungen, Perspektiven und Fragen.

Are You Refining Your Backlog Enough (or Too Often)? - Mike CohnHi V. Lee,Ever felt like your backlog refinement meetings are either way too long or painfully unproductive? You're not alone.Backlog refinement can be a game-changer—or a time sink. The difference? How well you understand the purpose.So, let's get clear. Refinement is when a team and its product owner look at the top items on the product backlog to make sure each is sufficiently well understood and small enough to be brought into the next sprint.That means breaking down large items, adding detail, estimating effort, and generally getting your stories “ready” for the team to work on.Great refinement helps your team:Avoid surprises during sprint planningReduce rework due to misunderstood storiesDeliver value faster, with fewer blockerOnce per sprint works well for teams that like fewer meetings. Keep in mind that the meeting will be longer, though.Once per week can help avoid long, draining sessions—especially if your once-per-sprint meetings are creeping past two hours.What Is Product Backlog Refinement? How Often Should You Do It?Most teams will either do a refinement meeting once per sprint or once per week. What I don't recommend is going beyond that.I've worked with teams in the past that were running 2–3 refinement meetings per week, each an hour or more. Unless your backlog is in serious disarray or your product is unusually complex, that's overkill.And remember—refinement doesn't only happen in meetings. It's perfectly fine for a product owner and a few team members to huddle up outside the scheduled meeting to split a story or clarify details.Keep your refinement meetings focused, lightweight, and appropriately timed—and you'll spend more time delivering value instead of just talking about it. That's a great way to succeed with agile.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

What if the thing that's working in your business… is actually the thing holding you back from what's next? In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the massive shifts I've made to my signature Mastermind, The Millionaire Mother Experience—and why refining something that's “working” is often the boldest move you can make in business. You'll hear the real story of how I decided to split the mastermind into two unique tracks: The Foundry (for mothers establishing their six-figure foundation) and The Inner Circle (for those scaling to multi-six and seven figures). This wasn't a pivot out of burnout—it was a refinement rooted in strategy, service, and soul. If you're craving more clarity, alignment, or momentum in your offers, this episode is going to give you permission to rethink what's good... so you can build something great. Tune in to hear me dive into: Why I intentionally disrupted a thriving offer The difference between starting a business and scaling one The internal nudge I couldn't ignore—and how you can spot yours What The Foundry and The Inner Circle are, and who they're for Why exquisite client experience is my top business strategy going forward The power of trusting your instincts (even when it means shaking things up) What to do if your business feels “off,” even if it looks like it's working Want to learn more about The Foundry or The Inner Circle? DM me MME on Instagram or click here explore which track is right for you.  

It's easy to say God's timing is perfect, but His timetable can leave us with questions, and a lot of waiting! Sherri Krepps shares how to count on God as you go through the process of refinement.The Word Revealed: Jesus' Power, Provision, and Promise takes you and your discipleship partner through John, chapters 5–6, inviting you to reveal your thoughts to each other and to the people in your world!    As our thanks for your gift today, you'll receive two copies—one for you and one for your study/discipleship partner.

Are We Lovers or Prostitutes? The Refiner's Fire & The True Bride of Christ | KIB 485 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing

The Omer is the 49-day time period between Pesach (Passover) and Shavuot. During this time, we climb up the emotional ladder by refining our character traits and regaining control of our emotions. We do this by focusing on the sefirot. A sefirah is an emotional attribute. For each of the 7 weeks between Passover and Shavuot, we focus on one sefirah each week.Rebbetzin Sara-Tova Yaffe, of the CBD Chabad Sydney, in Sydney, Australia, takes us through each of the 7 sefirot, and explains them in detail.Chesed--Kindness/love/benevolenceThis is the most important aspect for creating a foundation in our relationships. Rebbetzin Sara-Tova talks about the different types of relationships that we have: intrapersonal (the relationship you have with yourself), interpersonal (your relationships with others), and your relationship with Hashem (G-d). Chesed encompasses how we give and receive love.Question to ask yourself relating to Chesed: Do I take into consideration my partner's capacity to receive before I give? Gevurah--Discipline/justice/boundariesThis is the channel through which we express our love. It gives us our direction and purpose. It makes our love focused and purposeful.Question to ask yourself relating to Gevurah: Is my discipline restrained or is it excessive? Tiferet--Compassion/harmony/beautyThis is the perfect blend of chesed and gevurah. Tiferet is the truth, and it rises above the ego. It brings clarity to relationships. Tiferet helps us balance our needs with another person's needs so that we are not over giving or over taking. Question to ask yourself relating to Tiferet: Do I bond with the one you have compassion for, or do I remain apart? Netzach--Victorious/enduring/ambitiousThis is our drive, determination and tenacity to reach our goals. Netzach gives us the patience and the persistence to go after our dreams and desires without giving up. It brings security and commitment to relationships.Question to ask yourself relating to Netzach: Does my determination compromise my compassion for others? Hod--Humility/splendorHod gives Netzach direction. It gives us the awareness that Hashem is really the One who controls our success. As much effort as we put in while we persevere, it is Hashem who decides the outcome of our efforts. Hod brings awareness that all our gifts and blessings are from above, so we should not be boastful.Question to ask yourself relating to Hod: Does my humility cause me to be anti-social, or does it express itself in empathy for others? Yesod--Foundation/bondingYosod is the ultimate attribute of emotional connection. It is the fusion of individuals together; not two separate people, but rather two people coming together as one person, through the act of bonding. This brings a sense of belonging to a relationship.Question to ask yourself relating to Yesod: Is my bonding conditional? Malchut--Kingship/sovereignty/nobilityThis is a state of being; the way you show up in the world. Malchut is how you hold yourself and present yourself to the world. It's an expression of dignity.Question to ask yourself relating to Malchut: Am I aware of my limitations and my strengths?

Once men learn that being the 'nice guy' doesn't work, they usually get led down the path of being the bad boy. They'll be playful, banter with her, bust her chops. While this is important when it comes to getting her attracted to you, it's not the complete picture.

SEFIRAT HAOMERYour Journey to Personal RefinementCan a person in our generation attain the feeling to holiness described in so many stories of old? Is it possible to learn to love and reach a level where we rejoice in the merit ofspending money on matzah for Passover, tefillin for a child, or a coin for the poor, just as we do when buying a new piece of furniture?The question also arises in the opposite direction: Is it possible to distance ourselves from the love of that which is forbidden? To reduce desires for transgressions and negative things?Are we truly in a position to master, indeed change our instincts, and traits?

In this engaging conversation, Danielle Strickland, James Sholl, and Aaron White explore the themes of powers and principalities, the harrowing of hell, and the complexities of the gospel. They discuss the sacredness of life, the corruption of good systems, and the idolatry of self, while emphasizing the importance of aligning with the marginalized and understanding the true nature of God's power. The conversation challenges traditional views on hell and encourages a deeper exploration of liberation theology and the good news of Jesus. In this conversation, the speakers explore the themes of death, judgment, and the nature of hell, emphasizing the influence of Dante's imagery on contemporary beliefs. They discuss the biblical stories of the rich man and Lazarus, the concept of refinement and transformation, and the significance of Jesus' descent into hell as a means of liberation. The dialogue also touches on the nature of free will, the role of mercy in justice, and the importance of recognizing and liberating those trapped in shadows of despair. Ultimately, they advocate for a vision of good news that emphasizes love, liberation, and the relentless pursuit of God.Takeaways* The power of babies serves as a reminder of sacredness.* Powers and principalities are often misunderstood in evangelicalism.* The harrowing of hell reveals the depths of God's love and justice.* Good systems can become corrupted and serve self-interests.* Idolatry often stems from a desire for self-preservation.* Jesus invites us to die to our self-serving agendas.* The true power of the gospel liberates and transforms lives.* Understanding hell requires a nuanced theological perspective.* Liberation theology emphasizes the voices of the marginalized.* The conversation challenges traditional views on God's judgment and mercy. We often create an allegiance with death and judgment without realizing it.* Dante's portrayal of hell has shaped modern Christian beliefs.* The story of the rich man and Lazarus illustrates a great reversal.* Refinement and transformation are essential aspects of faith.* Jesus' descent into hell signifies victory over death and liberation for captives.* Free will is directed towards the good, but many remain trapped in shadows.* Jesus is the bait that leads to the liberation of souls from hell.* Justice is ultimately trumped by mercy in God's economy.* Evil is a shadow, and light must shine to remove it.* The call to action is to harrow hell and liberate those in despair.Titles* Exploring Powers and Principalities* The Harrowing of Hell Explained* Understanding the Gospel's True Power* The Corruption of Good Systems* Idolatry and Self-Preservation* The Invitation to Die with Jesus Get full access to Right Side Up: Danielle Strickland at daniellestrickland.substack.com/subscribe

“It's not the load that breaks you. It's the way you carry it.” – Lou Holtz This 100th episode is more than a milestone—it's a moment of refinement.

A sacred, strategic step back so I could step forward in alignment with peace, purpose, and power. In this episode, I open up about: The top lessons I've learned from my season of self-neglect to self-advocacy The weight of being the strong friend and the cost of silencing your own needs Navigating toxic environments and releasing toxic people Creating stronger boundaries and choosing myself without guilt How Queen Esther inspired my faith walk from survival to sovereignty My journey from Martha to Deborah—and what that refinement has required Why getting in the room still matters, including my takeaways from the recent NURSE conference Redefining success, making money moves with purpose, and doing it on my terms I also share reflections from my viral YouTube episode with Michelle of The Michelle's Touch, titled: “Putting Yourself First as a Non-Negotiable: No More Burnout, No More Self-Neglect.” That episode reached over 1,000 views in the first 10 days—and it's still rising.

In this episode of the Next Level Podcast, Michael McIntyre delivers an encouraging message to entrepreneurs and dreamers who feel like they're falling behind. He reminds listeners that delays in life and business are not denials but divine refinements—sacred setups designed to prepare you, not punish you. McIntyre warns against the trap of comparison, calling it the thief of calling, and urges listeners to stop measuring their journey against others. Your story is unique, and God's timing is perfect, even if it doesn't look the way you expected. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, staying faithful in the hidden seasons, and being open to saying yes even when it's uncomfortable. Whether through business failures, personal growth, or spiritual pruning, everything is working together to forge—not burn—you. You haven't missed your moment; you're being made ready for it.

TODAY'S VIDEO: A free prayer providing context about the work of the blood and sacrifice of Jesus Christ and the refiner's fire of God. THE FIRE OF REFINEMENT IS NOT EASY NOR IS IT MEANT TO BE EASY. Warfare by definition is not easy, but what makes it harder is presumption of a higher office & station than we're able to stand at. What are the rules of engagement, are you familiar with them? YOU CANNOT GET ANY MORE TERRITORY THAN YOU ARE ABLE OR WILLING TO MAINTAIN. YOU CANNOT HOLD ANY HIGHER OFFICE THAN YOU ARE WORTHY OF. YOU CANNOT BE PROMOTED WITHOUT COMPLETING THE LAST STAGE YOU WERE TESTED AT. IF YOU BUILD POORLY YOU WILL BE SENT BACK TO THE BEGINNING TO BUILD BETTER. IF YOU BUILD WELL HOLD YOUR POSITION AND YOU WILL BE PROMOTED. PROMOTION, HIGHER OFFICE, AND ALL "BETTER THINGS" COME AT A COST. PAY IT. GOD IS THE ONE SETTING THE COURSE, THE PACE, AND THE TESTS IN JESUS NAME. REFINEMENT IS WHAT MAKES YOU FIT TO COMMAND MORE TERRITORY AND HAVE MORE. PROCESSING IS WHAT MAKES YOU STRONG ENOUGH TO DO MORE, FOR YOU & FOR OTHERS.

Have you ever had a dream but found yourself stuck in Egypt? Life often takes us through unexpected detours, leaving us in places we never imagined. In today's message, we dive into the story of Joseph—a man who had a vision for his life but found himself betrayed, enslaved, and imprisoned. Yet, through it all, God was with him. In this powerful sermon, we explore:

I will discuss the word refinement in two parts during my devotional: What is refinement and How does God refine us?

Peter continues to share about the work God accomplishes in the midst of persecution.

Sometimes, God turns up the heat in our lives for the purpose of making us more like Himself. When we're living in obedience to the Lord and affliction comes our way, we can be certain that He's using those circumstances to refine us and purify our hearts. No matter the struggles we face, our hope and our purpose are found in Him alone.

Refinement isn't about doing more—it's about trusting what's already working. In this episode, I'm sharing how my word of the year, refine, is transforming my goals, workspace, and habits in ways I didn't expect. From resisting the urge to start over to making small tweaks that create big results, we're diving into why subtle shifts matter. I'll share how refining my home office (without spending a dime!) made a huge impact, why "procrastinate learning" was holding me back, and how revisiting forgotten habits is bringing me more clarity and momentum. If you're craving progress without the overwhelm, this episode is for you. Listen in, and if you haven't set a word of the year yet, this might just convince you to pick one.

Send us a textThis lecture explores the profound parable of The Thief by Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, who teaches that every soul contends with an inner thief—an inclination that robs us of our divine light. Drawing parallels between this concept and the Ten Plagues, Rabbi Bernath delves into how each plague symbolizes a distortion of the ten faculties of the soul, as described in Kabbalah. These ancient episodes of spiritual dysfunction mirror the psychological struggles we face today. Through understanding the anatomy of our soul and the symbolic meaning of the plagues, we uncover a roadmap to self-recovery and spiritual transformation.Takeaways:The Inner Thief: Recognizing the negative impulses within us is the first step to reclaiming our inner peace.Plagues as Life Lessons: The Ten Plagues symbolize spiritual dysfunctions in the soul, offering timeless lessons for introspection and growth.Refinement of the Soul: Each plague corresponds to a faculty of the soul—confidence, compassion, love, and others—highlighting the necessity to channel these energies positively.Path to Redemption: Liberation from our "Mitzrayim" begins with honest self-awareness, confronting our inner distortions, and returning to our divine purpose.The Power of Recovery: Even when the thief within seems to have consumed all, recovery and renewal are always possible.#Kabbalah #TenPlagues #Judaism #Jewish #Egypt #Mitzrayim #InnerThief #Sprirital #JewishHistory #Bible #Exodus #Vaera #TorahPortion #Torah #TorahLessons Create Harmony This is a podcast about setting an intentional rhythm, savoring life's blessings and...Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Eye-Opening Moments PodcastEye-Opening Moments are stories of adversity, encounters, and perspectives.
