Imagine a seasoned grandfather pulling up a chair beside his restless, frustrated grandchildren — children upset about the apparent success of dishonest people and the seemingly unchecked wrongdoing in the world — and offering them hard-won, life-tested wisdom: don't fret. That is precisely the spirit Lia Girard finds in Psalm 37, written near the end of King David's turbulent life by a man who had seen plenty of evil, committed some of his own, and repeatedly returned to the God who proved faithful through it all. This is not the advice of someone who has lived a sheltered life. It is wisdom forged in the fire of real experience. Psalm 37 was written as an alphabetic acrostic — each stanza beginning with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet — designed to be teachable, memorable, and passed down through generations. And its message is as urgent today as it ever was: do not fret when wicked people seem to prosper. Refrain from anger. Wait patiently for God. Because divine justice is coming, in His perfect timing, by His sovereign hand. We are not called to be passive in the face of wrongdoing. We can still love, still serve, still reach out to those in need. But we are called to keep the faith, guard our own spiritual integrity, and trust that the God who sees every atrocity is not indifferent, and that wrath is not ours to wield. Bible Verse "Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger, and turn from wrath; do not fret — it leads only to evil." — Psalm 37:7-8, NIV Ponder Today Fretting is not just unpleasant, it is dangerous. Psalm 37 warns that fretting leads only to evil. Unchecked anger over injustice, left to simmer, can pull us away from faith, integrity, and the peace God desires for us. God sees every atrocity and every wicked scheme. Waiting patiently for Him is not the same as believing He is uninvolved. He sees it all, and Psalm 37 promises that the swords the wicked wield against the poor will ultimately pierce their own hearts. David wrote this psalm as a man of deeply imperfect but genuine faith. His wisdom is credible precisely because he earned it through failure, repentance, and watching God come through in the mess. His counsel is not naive. It is seasoned. Stillness and action are not opposites. Being still before the Lord does not mean doing nothing. We can still love, serve, and reach out to those in need, but we do so from a place of trust rather than outrage, faith rather than fear. A Prayer for You Today God, I know You see our world in turmoil. It's hard to tamp down anger when I see wrongdoing seemingly rewarded with power and success. Help me stop the fretting in my heart. Remind me that You have this. Equip and guide me to do good in my own circle of influence, and to refrain from worry and wrath. Give me an overflowing measure of the inner peace only You can provide — and help me stay hopeful, joyful, and merciful in these confusing times. In Your mighty name, Amen. Don't Miss an Episode If today's prayer helped quiet the noise of a confusing world and anchor your heart in God's justice, we'd love to stay connected.

Sin: Taking a GODLY DESIRE and fulfilling it in an UNGODLY WAY.Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.Meekness is not weakness. Meekness is STRENGTH under CONTROL.Matthew 11:29–30 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.HARSHNESS can drive short-term results, but it will lead to long-term DESTRUCTION.2. TRUST puts your power under control because you know WHO'S IN CONTROL.When you TRUST God completely, GENTLENESS comes easily.Psalm 37:1–11 “Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret—it leads only to evil. For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land. A little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look for them, they will not be found. But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity.”Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.3. The reward of meekness: PROGRESS.Proverbs 15:1 A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.Galatians 5:22–23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.Matthew 11:29–30 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

"Stadium Arcadium" von den Red Hot Chili Peppers erschien am 5. Mai 2006 und hat alles, was ihren typischen Sound ausmacht. Es brachte fünf Erfolgsongs hervor, darunter "Dani California". Eigentlich solle "Stadium Arcadium" sogar noch epischer werden. Geplant war eine Album-Trilogie, deren Einzelteile im Abstand von sechs Monaten erscheinen sollten. Am Ende blieb es bei diesem reichhaltigen Doppelalbum mit 28 Titeln. Trotz vier Grammys und über sieben Millionen verkaufter Exemplare, kam das Werk aber nicht an den Riesenerfolg von "Californication" ran. Das Besondere an "Stadium Arcadium" ist, dass die Chili Peppers quasi ihre komplette Karriere auf dem Album vereint haben, ohne sich zu wiederholen. Ihr kreativer Antrieb ist in jedem Song spürbar und verbindet den vertrauten Klang früherer Werke mit neuen Ideen. Der Opener "Dani California" zählt zu den größten Erfolgen der Red Hot Chili Peppers und ist ihr dritter und bis dahin letzter Top-10-Hit. Im Mittelpunkt steht eine Frau namens Dani, die vom lyrischen Ich verehrt wird und deren Geschichte auch schon in früheren Songs wie "Californication" und "By The Way" erzählt wird. Dani lebt in Armut und kennt kaum ein anderes Leben. In "Dani California" erreicht sie nach einer langen und harten Reise Kalifornien, wo sie schließlich zerbricht und stirbt. Ihre Geschichte wirkt wie ein Sinnbild für den gescheiterten amerikanischen Traum. Das Besondere an den Red Hot Chili Peppers, das hört man auch auf "Stadium Arcadium" deutlich, ist ihr außergewöhnliches Zusammenspiel als Band. Die Songs werden gemeinsam geschrieben und entwickelt, wobei jedes Mitglied seinen Raum zum Glänzen bekommt. Unterstützt wurden sie von Produzent Rick Rubin, der bereits mehrere ihrer Alben betreut hatte. Sein Ansatz ist bewusst zurückhaltend. Die Band arbeitet beim Songwriting organisch, oft ausgehend von einer Idee wie einem Riff, einer Strophe oder einem Refrain. Daraus entwickeln sich nach und nach vollständige Songs. Rubin greift erst am Ende ein und konzentriert sich darauf, Überflüssiges zu streichen. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Stadium Arcadium" sprechen wir im Podcast (12:39) – "Dani California"(39:32) – "Snow (Hey Oh)"(46:30) – "Stadium Arcadium"(51:22) – "Hump De Bump"(58:50) – "Wet Sand"(01:05:10) – "Tell Me Baby" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "Stadium Arcadium" findet ihr hier: https://1.ard.de/red-hot-chili-peppers-stadium-arcadium __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Mandy Manglers Buch „Don´t miss the Clitoris – eine Bedienungsanleitung“ – geht mit einem Zitat aus einem Christina Aquilera Song los.I´m a genie in a Bottle, BabyYou gotta rub me the right way  - da war natürlich sofort klar – hier hat ein Lied etwas mit Halt und Orientierung zu tun – ich frag mal nach und …-  das ging dann ganz fix mit der Zusage – danke  Mandy Mangler Der wiederkehrende Refrain "I'm a genie in a bottle / You gotta rub me the right way" besingt, dass Erfüllung und Lust an den richtigen Umgang gebunden sind. Der "Genie" ist mächtig, doch mächtig ist der Flaschengeist nur, wenn die Person, die ihn befreien will, weiß, wie. Das ist eine gute Parallele zur Klitoris: sie ist ein zentrales Lustorgan, das Erregung und Orgasmen maßgeblich beeinflussen kann — doch ohne Wissen über Lage, Struktur und richtige Berührung bleibt dieser Zugang verschlossen. Der gute Geist bleibt in der Flasche. Denn sexuelle Erregung ist komplex, individuell unterschiedlich und erfordert Kommunikation, Kenntnis über den eigenen Körper und dem Körper von anderen und natürlich Respekt.Daher sollte dieses Wissen nicht weggeschlossen werden, sondern wir sollten offen darüber reden – schon die Aufmachung des Buches mit einer ganz auffallenden Klitoris fordert dazu heraus. Und der Song natürlich auch.Viele von uns sind mit Begriffen wie Kitzler, Schamlippen oder Scheide aufgewachsen. Diese Wörter sind historisch gewachsen und tief im Sprachgebrauch verankert. Gleichzeitig transportieren sie – oft unbewusst – Vorstellungen von Scham oder reduzieren den weiblichen Körper auf eine funktionale Rolle – ein Ort wo etwas weggesteckt werden kann.Gerade im schulischen Kontext sollte ein Raum geschaffen werden, in dem Sexualität sachlich, respektvoll und selbstbestimmt thematisiert werden kann. Die bewusste Wahl von Begriffen ist dabei ein kleiner, aber wichtiger Schritt. Diese Entscheidung kann dazu beitragen, tradierte Rollenbilder zu hinterfragen und ein zeitgemäßes Verständnis von Körperlichkeit und Gleichberechtigung zu fördern.Wir sollten gemeinsam darüber nachdenken, welche Wirkung Sprache hat – und wie wir sie bewusst einsetzen können.Mandy Manglers Buch „Don´t miss the Clitoris“ liefert hier einen wichtigen Beitrag.In Gedanke 3 gibt es interessante Informationen von Hebamme Evelyn.Foto © Christina AguileraHomepage: https://7tage1song.dePlaylist Podcast und Song: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/20KHRuuW0YqS7ZyHUdlKO4?si=b6ea0b237af041ecInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/7tage1song/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pg/7tage1song/Kontakt: post@7tage1song.deLink zum Song: https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/track/11mwFrKvLXCbcVGNxffGyP?si=7ce19f9250e4408aSpotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0M5tOXTC0lM8RVycUBQnjy?si=idKC-CFaRp2ZD992gvWvsQ

Buddha - How To Live A Good Life (Buddhism)After reaching enlightenment, the Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama,  wrote out some basic rules to be followed in daily practice which he called “The Five Precepts”. These five precepts of Buddhism can be seen as a representation of Buddhist values and principles. They have a lot of depth, and involve renouncing some behaviours, while developing other, more wholesome qualities. Hence following these precepts helps us build our moral character, and by developing our moral character we accumulate good karma and as such are able to live a good life. The teachings of Buddha have always had a huge influence not only in Asia, but around the world, which is why in this video we take a look at how to live a good life, according to the 5 precepts from the philosophy of the Buddha.  The 5 ways to live a good life following  the 5 precepts from the philosophy of the Buddha are - 01. Abstain from Killing02. Abstain from Stealing03. Abstain from Sexual Misconduct04. Abstain from Wrong Speech05. Refrain from taking intoxicantWe hope that these 5 ways to live a good life following the 5 precepts from the philosophy of the Buddha will add value to your life.  The Buddha was a philosopher, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who is credited as the founder of Buddhism. He was born as Siddhartha Gautama in India in 566 BC into an aristocratic family and when he was twenty-nine years old, he left the comforts of his home to seek the meaning of the suffering he saw around him. After six years of arduous yogic training, he abandoned the way of self-mortification and instead sat in mindful meditation beneath a bodhi tree. On the full moon of May, with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the awakened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realised in that moment. Around him developed a community of people, drawn from every tribe and caste, devoted to practicing this path. Nowadays, he is worshiped by most Buddhist schools as the enlightened one who has escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth, transcending Karma. Their main teachings focus on their insight into duhkha meaning “suffering” and into Nirvana, which means the end of suffering. 

There are times in our lives where we ask ourselves, “Am I doing this right?” Or, “Should I be doing that too?” It's normal to compare ourselves to friends around us. But in order to grow and have fun, we must remember to focus on our own journey instead.

Why Do My Words Keep Getting Me Into Trouble?"In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips is wise." — Proverbs 10:19Social media has multiplied our words beyond anything Solomon could have imagined. In his day, your words reached the people in your immediate circle. Today, your words can reach millions. And every word is permanent. Screenshotted. Shared. Weaponized.Solomon says in the multitude of words there is no lack of sin. That means the more you talk, the more likely you are to sin with your words. And social media has created a multitude of words like never before. Tweets. Posts. Comments. Stories. DMs. Replies. We're producing more words in a day than our grandparents produced in a week.And all those words are getting us into trouble. Because we're posting in anger. Commenting without thinking. Tweeting reactions instead of responses. Sharing opinions that should stay private. And every careless word is creating problems.Here's what social media has done. It's removed the natural consequences that used to restrain speech. In face-to-face conversation, you see the person's reaction. You feel the tension when you say something hurtful. You experience immediate feedback. But on social media, you don't see the damage your words cause. You just hit post and move on.And because there's no immediate consequence, we say things online we'd never say in person. We're harsher. Crueler. More judgmental. Less gracious. Because we're not looking into someone's eyes when we wound them with our words.Solomon's solution is simple. Refrain your lips. Talk less. Post less. Comment less. Not everything needs to be said. Not every opinion needs to be shared. Not every thought needs to be tweeted. Wisdom restrains words.But our culture celebrates the opposite. It rewards people who post constantly. Who have hot takes on everything. Who never miss an opportunity to weigh in. And the result is exactly what Solomon predicted. In the multitude of words, sin abounds.Here's my challenge. Before you post, ask yourself: Is this necessary? Is this true? Is this kind? Will this help or hurt? If you can't answer yes to those questions, don't post. Refrain your lips. Or in this case, refrain your thumbs.The wise person on social media isn't the one with the most followers or the wittiest replies. It's the person who restrains their words. Who thinks before posting. Who values silence over constantly adding to the noise.In the multitude of words there lacks not sin. Social media has given us unlimited capacity for words. But it hasn't given us wisdom to handle that capacity. And until we learn to restrain our lips, our words will keep getting us into trouble.Let's pray: Father, we post too much and think too little. Teach us to restrain our lips. Help us to speak less and listen more. Give us wisdom about social media. Protect us from the sin that comes with too many words. In Jesus' name, Amen.#Faith #Priorities #ChristianLiving #DailyDevotion #KnowingChrist #SpiritualGrowth #RTTBROS #NightlightBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

(Refrain 1): The splendor of Lord Gauranga's (Caitanya) arati attracts the minds of all living entities of the universe! 2) On Lord Caitanya's right side is Lord Nityananda and on His left is Sri Gadadhara.

This kirtana music is supremely sweet and relish able to hear. (Refrain 2): Conchsells resound! bell resound! Sweetness, sweetness, and sweetness resounds! 6) The brilliance of Lord Caitanya's face conquers millions upon millions of moons, and the garland of forest flowers around His neck shines. 7) Lord Siva, Sukadeva Gosvami, and Narada Muni are all there, and their voices are choked with the ecstasy of transcendental love. Thus Thakura Bhaktivinoda envisions the glory of Lord Sri Caitanya. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #gauraarti #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

In this episode of Words That Burn, I sit down with poet Shannon Kuta Kelly to explore the beautifully haunting landscapes of her debut poetry collection, The Tree is Missing (coming this April from Faber and Faber).Shannon's work has been featured in the New England Review, Poetry Ireland Review, and The Irish Times. As a PhD graduate from the Seamus Heaney Centre at Queen's University Belfast and a 2025 Ciaran Carson Fellow, she brings a profound depth of knowledge and intuition to her craft. We discuss the tension between the past and present, the eerie realities of urbanisation, and how transient living shapes our identities.This episode explores:The Meaning of "The Tree is Missing": Unpacking the symbolic, ecological, and geographical resonances behind the collection's title.Liminality and Urban Sprawl: How manmade borders, transient city living, and the meeting point between nature and concrete influence her writing.History's Phantom Limbs: Grounding the tragic, echoing histories of places like Tarnów, Poland, through human-centric storytelling and everyday images.Folklore and Dream Logic: Why poetry and myth are a "match made in heaven," and how Shannon taps into our shared subconscious and collective symbols.An Exclusive Reading: Shannon treats us to a reading of her poignant poem, Gost, and discusses the linguistic overlap between "ghosts" and "guests."Whether you are a writer looking for advice on peeling back the layers of your own poetry or a reader fascinated by the intersection of myth and reality, Shannon's insights are not to be missed.Follow the Podcast:Read the Script on SubstackFollow the Podcast On InstagramFollow the Podcast on X/TwitterFollow the Podcast on TiktokFollow the podcast on BlueskyTime Stamps:00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro01:05 Why The Tree Is Missing02:25 Borders Urban Sprawl Erasure03:33 Liminal Life and POV Shifts04:49 Observing Strangers and Details06:00 From Reality to Spare Images08:43 Tarnov and Haunted History12:44 Storytelling Women and Three Sisters15:20 Poetic Truth and Let It Be August16:58 Endings Claustrophobia and Book Shape19:58 Editing Influences and Breathing Space22:28 Decay in Pastoral Scenes24:56 Folklore and Poetic Logic26:48 Two Brothers Divided29:31 Nostalgia and Lost Homes32:11 Dream Time Symbols34:45 How Poems Are Collected36:07 Gost Guests and Ghosts39:50 Refrain and Repetition42:05 Advice for other poets Hosted on Acast.

At our Pa Ba Ceremony of Offering Forest Cloth on Magha Puja Full Moon, Ajahn Dhammasiha gives a Dhamma Talk about the Ovādapātimokkha:Abstain from any evil deed accomplish what is good and true, And fully purify your mind - That is what all the Buddhas teach. Enduring patience is the best of all ascetic practices; The best of everything at all is called Nibbāna by the sage. If you cause harm to anyone you can't be called a genuine monk! Refrain from harming and abuse, and strictly keep the Buddha's rules; Be moderate when taking food, and dwell alone in solitude devoted to the Higher Mind - That is what all the Buddhas teach. The Buddha recited this concise summary of the whole practice leading to Nibbāna on the full moon of Magha, at the 'Sāvaka-sannipāta', the spontaneous gathering of 1,250 Arahant Bhikkhus, all of them ordained by the Buddha himself. Ajahn Dhammasiha also explains that the Veluvana (Bamboo Grove Monastery), the location of Magha Puja, was the first monastery ever offered to the Buddha. King Bimbisāra of the Kingdom of Magadha offered a park to the sangha, located outside the gates of his capital Rajagah. The Buddha accepted it and declared that the monks are now allowed to accept property the to be owned by the sangha communally (but not by individual monks). However, the monks continued to live in the open and under trees even in the newly offered monastery. The billionaire banker of Rajagaha saw the monks still living in the open, and asked the Buddha for permission to erect buildings for them. The Buddha granted permission, and from then on numerous structures were erected and offered to the sangha.Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/news⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our email Newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest Photos⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://latest-pics.dhammagiri.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Youtube Channel:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@dhammatalksatdhammagiri8724#buddhism #buddha #buddhistmonastery #rajagaha #rajgir #maghapuja #ovadapatimokkha

'Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: he will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret – it leads only to evil. For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land,' (Psalm 37.1-8).

Abstain from any evil deed accomplish what is good and true, And fully purify your mind - That is what all the Buddhas teach.

Ajahn Dhammasiha introduces us to the location of the event, the Bamboo Grove Monastery ('Veḷuvana') at Rājagaha, and goes through the Ovādapātimokkha line by line (By the way, it's actually 14 lines of verse in the Pāli. When Ajahn Dhammasiha talks about 16 lines, he was thinking about the English translation, which has two lines more. It can be difficult to express meaning in English as succinct as in Pali, often one requires more words in modern languages to get the meaning accross)Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/news⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our email Newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest Photos⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://latest-pics.dhammagiri.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Youtube Channel:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@dhammatalksatdhammagiri8724#buddhism #buddha #arahants #magha #maghapuja #ovadapatimokkha

The death of king Josiah is given more detail in 2 Chronicles 35 (cf. 2 Chronicles 35:20-25). The account shows that God spoke to Josiah through Necho, the king of Egypt. God was warning the king not to meddle with His affairs. The account demonstrates how Josiah meddled with God, and we should avoid doing the same.

This week on The Gaming Duo, we dive deep into Traveler's Refrain, the music-driven action RPG from Red Essence Games that blends combat, melody, and melancholy into a surprisingly powerful indie experience. Wielding a magical bouzouki, Traveler's Refrain asks a bold question: what if music wasn't just atmosphere but the heart of gameplay, storytelling, and self-discovery?We break down how song-casting works in combat and exploration, whether the music mechanics feel meaningful or gimmicky, and how the game balances rhythm-adjacent action without becoming a full rhythm game. From its atmospheric world design and light puzzle-solving to its emotional themes of memory, loss, and longing, we discuss who this game is really for and why its smaller scope may actually be its greatest strength.We also dig into the game's minimalist storytelling approach, pacing, and overall length, along with its biggest strengths and shortcomings. Plus, we wrap things up with our recommendation and final score.If you love emotionally driven indie games like Transistor, Hyper Light Drifter, or Death's Door, this is one journey you won't want to miss.Discord link: https://discord.gg/B7YYMvZtZ2

We dive into the game's standout song-casting mechanic, where music drives both combat and world interaction, and how that idea evolved throughout development.To wrap things up, Nik answers our signature Gaming Duo questions, shares what he's playing right now, and offers advice for aspiring indie developers.

This guided Scripture meditation is in Psalm 37 using Lectio Divina. Waiting on God is hard. This Psalm reminds us that God will act on our behalf – in his timing and in his ways. It also reminds us to not get caught up in comparison. It will only agitate us, and nothing good comes from this. So, take a deep breath and allow the Lord to guide you into this meditation in Psalm 37. I believe he has something just for you. Here’s some links I discussed in the podcast: The guided retreat to help you move into this new year with intention is here. You can find Jodie at http://www.jodieniznik.com/ Instagram @jodieniznik Facebook @JodieGNiznik Learn more about Lectio Divina and download your free Lectio Divina Journal here. And if you’re ready to make Scripture Meditation a part of your new year, I encourage you to join my Monday email newsletter here. I’ll send out link to the newest meditation every Monday morning. Download free sample chapters from my Bible studies here. Listen to another meditation on Psalm 37 from the Summer Series 2023 here The passages we meditated on is as follows: Psalm 37:5-9, CSB 5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act, 6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn, your justice like the noonday. 7 Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him; do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way, by the person who carries out evil plans. 8 Refrain from anger and give up your rage; do not be agitated—it can only bring harm. 9 For evildoers will be destroyed, but those who put their hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

Eric introduces the concept of the Eisenhower Matrix as a tool for improving time management and business efficiency. This matrix is explained through its four quadrants—urgent/important, not urgent/important, urgent/not important, and not urgent/not important—and Eric emphasizes that Quadrant Two (not urgent, but important) is the "magical spot" for strategic planning and growth, encouraging listeners to delegate or eliminate tasks in the other quadrants to avoid living in a state of chaos. The discussion then broadens into how different personality types may perceive urgency and importance, with participants sharing personal anecdotes and challenges related to over-helping, procrastination, and managing staff expectations using these principles. Ultimately, Triplett advocates for a deeper understanding of one's own behavioral patterns and the matrix to improve leadership and business outcomes, citing related concepts from other business authors. Key Takeaways: Prioritize activities that are important but not urgent, which is the most effective zone for vision and future planning. Turn off phone notifications because they create false urgency for things that are not truly important. Delegate urgent and important tasks whenever possible to avoid being constantly stuck in a reactive state of "firefighting." Protect your time by learning to say "no" to other people's emergencies that are not important to your core goals. Refrain from giving customer discounts to ensure you can afford to hire teams and take care of your staff at a higher level.

The Fallacy of Stealth Mode Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Startups often choose to stay in stealth mode in the early days to protect their idea. In most cases, stealth mode doesn't help the startup and can actually hurt it. Here's the downside of going into stealth mode: It's difficult for others to help the startup because they don't know what is going on. It's harder to hire for the startup because it's a secret. You can't tell customers about it because you may reveal too much. It's difficult to talk to investors because the startup wants everyone to sign an NDA. Startups that commit fraud are often in stealth mode to hide their activities. Instead of going into stealth mode, be open about what you are doing. Refrain from explaining to everyone how you are doing it. This gives exposure to the startup for investors and customers. Consider keeping certain functions as a trade secret. Investors will appreciate the fact that you have intellectual property in the form of a trade secret. They will be less impressed by your stealth mode. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

The antiphonal nature of Psalm 136 is seen in the repeated second half of every verse: “His steadfast love endures forever.” This psalm helps us to give thanks to the LORD for His steadfast love shown forth in His work of creation, redemption, and His ongoing care for His people. For these reasons and more, we give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!  Rev. David Vandercook, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in North Little Rock, AR and Shepherd of Peace Lutheran Church in Maumelle, AR, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 136.  "Psalms of Thanksgiving” is a series on Sharper Iron that looks to several psalms to help us give thanks to God. The LORD gives blessings to His whole creation, even all evil people. As we pray the psalms, He teaches us to receive all His gifts with thanksgiving, knowing that He is good and His steadfast love endures forever.  This episode originally aired on November 25, 2024. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Today Eric emphasizes the crucial role of professionalism and word choice in sales interactions. He argues that just as one wouldn't appear in unprofessional attire for an in-person meeting, using inappropriate language or slang is equally detrimental to a client's perception. The episode provides numerous examples of unacceptable vocabulary in sales, such as "cost," "problem," "cheap," "try," or "part ways," contrasting them with more effective alternatives like "investment," "challenge," "cost-effective," "experience," and "agreement." The overarching message is that every word contributes to the client's perception of trustworthiness and competence, underscoring the importance of thoughtful communication in sales presentations and discovery calls.  Key Takeaways: Always dress professionally for sales consultations to convey respect and seriousness. Refrain from using profanity, locker room talk, or casual slang in professional interactions. Choose positive and professional vocabulary, such as "investment" instead of "cost" and "challenge" instead of "problem." Frame your sales approach as a service or presentation aimed at helping clients, rather than merely "pitching." Be mindful that every word you use shapes the client's perception and can either build trust or create resistance.

Psalms 42 and 43 share a common refrain in which the psalmist recalls the comfort of the hope he has in God, his salvation, even in the midst of terrible turmoil. He thirsts to be with God, and yet, his enemies question where his God even is. He cries out to God who, at times, seems to have forgotten him. He prays that God would answer with light and truth and so bring him back to the altar of God. Through the ups and downs of this life, the psalmist's focus—and ours—comes back over and over to the real hope that is found in the salvation of God.  Rev. Sean Kilgo, pastor at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Lawrence, KS, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalms 42 and 43.  To learn more about Redeemer Lutheran, visit Redeemer-Lawrence.org Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
