On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff calls in to break down his stunning negotiations with the Iranian regime before President Trump made his decision to attack. These meetings were to explore whether a verifiable, enforceable nuclear deal was possible under Trump. From the outset, the Iranians asserted that uranium enrichment was Iran's inalienable right and declared their large stockpile of enriched material—approximately 22,000 pounds—was off the table for negotiation. This could yield about 11 nuclear bombs if further enriched. Witkoff and Jared Kushner quickly became skeptical of Iran's willingness to make acceptable concessions. These meetings convinced Witkoff and Kushner that Iran had no genuine interest in a civilian nuclear program. Instead, Iran sought to disguise an ongoing research and development effort to maintain enrichment flexibility and breakout capability. Rejecting the no-enrichment deal revealed their true motivations were not civilian but weapons-oriented, allowing rapid production of enough material for dozens of bombs if unchecked. Witkoff reported these deceptions and unassailable facts to President Trump, who then made a tough, consequential decision in response. Later, our Framers of the Constitution were so brilliant and prescient. What you see, right now, occurring in Congress, is precisely why the delegates at the Constitutional Convention did not confer war powers on Congress. In fact, the delegates specifically changed the original draft of the Constitution from Congress having the power to make war to the power to declare war. That is, Congress was granted the authority to declare its support for war, not declare war as a condition of making war or going to war. And it is precisely why declarations of war have never been determinative in whether war is made or not -- since the beginning of our Republic. It is also why Congress cannot force the commander-in-chief to go to war by the act of declaring war. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Idols can turn your life inside out. The problem is, you rarely recognize that you're idolizing something in the moment. It usually takes a shock...like a messy separation...to see things clearly. The point of today's episode is to save you from a shock of your own, because I think you'll be able to learn from my story. I had a number of idols in my life that were a big part of my separation and all that's happened since. Now, God is so gracious and has given me so many gifts in this time that I never would have had if I didn't go through this, but obviously it would have been 100x better if I'd learned them withOUT the pain. This is your chance. This is an interview I did on the Grace in the Breaking podcast with Elizabeth Harper. In this episode: 0:00 Intro 2:19 From seeking validation to true peace 11:19 Idols 15:52 Rejecting the old and new Vince 26:15 The difference in parenting 30:02 New business direction 36:27 How this has impacted the kids ---
Cyndi Ramirez-Fulton is the Founder and CEO of Chillhouse, a cult wellness destination that evolved into a category-defining, design-led nail care brand.But the version of Cyndi you see today is not how this story begins. It begins with dropping out of college twice, working nightlife to stay financially stable, starting over in her mid-twenties with unpaid internships, and quietly questioning whether she was actually “good” at anything.When she opened Chillhouse, it wasn't instant success. It was long hours, tight margins, staffing challenges, seasonality, expansion risks, and the constant pressure of making payroll. She had to learn how to raise money, survive volatility, and pivot when the original business model was not scalable. The breakthrough came when she listened to her customers and launched salon-quality press-on nails, a move that completely transformed the trajectory of the company.In this episode, Cyndi shares what it really takes to rebuild confidence when you feel behind. We talk about the unglamorous realities of running a service-based business, why shiny opportunities can become expensive distractions, how motherhood reshaped the way she leads, and what shifted when Chillhouse entered a new chapter through its acquisition by KISS Beauty Group.If you have ever questioned your path or wondered whether you are capable of building something bigger than you imagined, this conversation is for you.In this episode, we'll talk to Cyndi about:* Why becoming obsessed is what makes you “good” at something. [01:50]* Growing up around small business hustle — but craving financial stability. [03:41]* Rejecting the traditional 9–5 and carving her own path. [08:14]* Starting over at 25 and taking an unpaid internship to rebuild. [10:57]* Blogging before influencing was mainstream and monetizing early. [15:07]* The desire to build something physical and the birth of Chillhouse. [17:43]* Why the original business model had to evolve. [22:37]* Raising money for the flagship store. [27:49]* Challenging moments Cyndi experienced in the business. [28:31]* The hard lesson of expansion and chasing shiny opportunities. [32:33]* Letting customer behavior guide the pivot to nail care. [34:45]* Testing products before discovering the breakout opportunity. [36:57]* Launching press-ons and creating instant brand recognition. [40:14]* From viral growth to legacy credibility: why today's virality starts with product performance. [44:27]* Motherhood, infrastructure, and building real support systems. [47:14]* Why exiting her business wasn't the goal, but the right partnership changed everything. [54:07]* Moving from survival mode to structured, strategic growth.

Embracing God's Grace while Rejecting Satan's Shame, A Guided Christian Meditation on Genesis 3:4-7 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ. Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. You can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tense or unrelaxing. If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes. Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation: Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate, deflate. Scripture for Meditation Genesis 3 RSV 4 But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons. NET 4 The serpent said to the woman, "Surely you will not die, 5 for God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will open and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." 6 When the woman saw that the tree produced fruit that was good for food, was attractive to the eye, and was desirable for making one wise, she took some of its fruit and ate it. She also gave some of it to her husband who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them opened, and they knew they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. Reflection on Scripture: Satan directly rejects what God taught Adam and Eve. Although in one way Satan put some truth in his lie. Their eyes were in fact opened when the partook of the fruit of the tree. Yet the ultimate point is they faced spiritual death when they ate of the fruit, which is separation from the presence of God, and they became subject to physical death. God's word was fulfilled. This scripture also begins to point out the beginning of shame. When we act in contrast to what God has told us to, we feel a conviction of our guilt from God. This can be a good and Godly influence. God's desire for us is not to retain this bad feeling and live in it. His desire is really aimed at bringing our hearts back in line with His will. He wants us to feel forgiven. He wants us to feel welcome back to his presence. So I think we should be aware of the effects of sin and seek to actively reject sin. Satan is aware of God's grace. He knows God will forgive us when we turn to, and trust in Jesus as the source of forgiveness and salvation. He wants to actively deny that. He would prefer that we become immobilized by shame. He wants us to hide our sin from God which we will talk more about next week. Satan wants to turn our attention away from our God who longs to pour out forgiveness and guide us to overcome sin. So my invitation to you is to ponder, do you allow Satan to use shame to take your focus away from the forgiveness that God freely offers? Equally destructive is do you reject any negative emotions associated with your guilt because you feel sad about it? Rejoice in any guilt that draws your heart back to the Lord and reject the shame of the enemy who seeks to destroy your hope in a glorious forgiveness. Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials. Summarize what insights you have gained during this meditation and meditate and visualize positive change in your life: This is a listener funded podcast at patreon.com/christianmeditationpodcast Final Question: If you consider the invitation and command to persevere in the faith, what change in your life does that bring to your mind?

At the end of her first pregnancy, Celine's plans for the birth unraveled. Her baby was breech, and the natural birth she had envisioned was replaced with a scheduled cesarean. Though the surgery itself wasn't traumatic, it shook her confidence. She was left wrestling with painful questions: Why didn't my baby turn? Is my body broken? Her healing began in the presence of women who believed deeply in birth and in her. Their unwavering faith helped her reclaim her own. When she became pregnant again, Celine chose a different path. She planned a home birth, supported by a midwife and doula, and consciously turned away from the fear that so often surrounds VBAC. When labor came, it came swiftly. Before the midwife could arrive, Celine birthed her baby in the quiet of her own bathroom, immersed in warm water, guided by instinct alone. The experience was powerful, psychedelic, and profoundly redemptive. She did not just give birth that day. She reclaimed herself.

Purpose of the Interview To highlight Marsha Evans’ work as a licensed professional counselor and founder of Willow Tree Counseling and Educational Center. To explore strategies for navigating life’s complex stages, breaking generational patterns, and building authentic relationships. To provide actionable insights for entrepreneurs and individuals on self-awareness, fear management, and relationship dynamics.

Evans emphasizes listening and identifying what balance, peace, or contentment means for each individual. Early Awareness and Discipline At age 12, Evans set a goal to earn a scholarship, showing intentionality and discipline. Athletics taught her teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience, shaping her leadership style. Reading the Room Start by reading yourself—know your energy and intentions. Authenticity and confidence are key to building relationships and leveraging opportunities. Fear and Family Systems Fear often originates from family systems and generational patterns, not just personal experiences. Example: Parents’ limited worldview can project fear of the unknown onto children. Recognizing these patterns helps individuals break cycles and pursue their own paths. Generational Patterns & Healing Evans uses Genograms (visual family trees) to identify psychological and behavioral patterns across three generations. Acceptance of parents and family history is crucial for personal and professional growth. Rejecting parents = rejecting life and success; honor them while creating new narratives.

Cristina Clark is a Certified Master Health Coach, life coach, and Certified Personal Trainer. She had a very complicated relationship with food, her body, and exercise, and over time developed a long list of escalating health issues, including leaky gut (2010) that left her intolerant to gluten, dairy, soy, peanuts, and corn, severe fibroids that led to a hysterectomy (2018), more than 20 years of recurring UTIs and antibiotics, interstitial cystitis, thyroid and adrenal issues, skin issues, tendon problems after Cipro, leg swelling, metabolic problems, and increasing reactions to many foods. In 2022, after a severe histamine response left her reacting to everything that she ate, she discovered carnivore and committed to the transition. Through extensive trial and error, she found that a very simple carnivore approach was the only way of eating that consistently kept her healthy and free of reactions. Today, she credits carnivore with helping her eliminate UTIs, interstitial cystitis, skin issues, and leg swelling, while greatly improving her metabolic health. She now helps midlife women who are tired of chasing symptoms and being told "it's just menopause" or "your labs look fine" understand what their body has been trying to tell them, simplify nutrition, build strength, and create sustainable change. Cristina also hosts the podcast Carnivore Lifestyle for Women.

Have you ever worked relentlessly toward a goal (a vision or a dream you once felt absolutely certain about) and suddenly it stops flowing? You're still trying. You're still showing up. But no matter how hard you push, it's not progressing the way it used to? You’re wondering: Does this mean I am ungrateful for wanting more? Am I self-sabotaging? Have I lost my magic touch? Is my manifestation ability broken? Or worse… am I about to ruin my life by walking away from something I fought so hard to build? I am seeing this collective theme everywhere right now… in my private practice, in conversations with friends, and inside my own life. What if this isn't failure at all? What if you are so greatly loved that you are being redirected to a version of your life or purpose that is better than you imagined? In this episode, I'm breaking down the shift from what I call Stage One manifestation (ego-based) to Stage Two manifestation (soul-aligned) through the lens of Numerology and your Life Path number. Did you know that very Life Path (1 through 9, including master numbers 11, 22, and 33) has its own evolutionary arc? There is what you were taught to chase… and there is what your soul is actually here to embody.

You didn't lose your magic. You’re mining for an elevated version of it. And your Life Path number may be revealing exactly where it went.

By: Dr E. Allen Griffith. This is the two hundred and twenty-third episode of By the Book! Listening to this could change your life! New episodes every Friday!
DescriptionAndrew Zwerneman, writer and narrator for HISTORY250® and co-founder and president of Cana Academy, joins Christopher Perrin to argue that America's cultural crisis is, at root, a crisis of memory—and that renewing history education is a work of restoration. Zwerneman traces the teachers, places, and lived experiences that formed him as a historian, then explains why the “liberal discipline of history” must resist ideological reduction and return to observation, sympathy, and fidelity to the past. Along the way, they connect historical remembrance to the deepest human questions: personhood, responsibility, freedom, and the moral imagination that societies inherit. The conversation explores how biblical and classical sources shaped the American founding, how later leaders invoked inherited principles to confront slavery and injustice, and why the West's habit of self-criticism depends on conserving what came before. Zwerneman introduces Cana Academy and its HISTORY250® project as practical efforts to rebuild shared story through films, primary sources, maps, and teacher formation. The episode closes with a vivid picture of what great history instruction looks like: students learning to read documents, geography, art, and narrative so they can live under a shared story and recover “hallowed ground.”Episode OutlineZwerneman's formation: family travel, early teachers, and awakening to the moral weight of historyWhy remembrance is central to human and Christian life: Exodus, Passover, and “do this in remembrance of me”Rejecting “history as a force”: recovering human agency, personhood, and moral dramaAmerican inheritance: scripture, ordered liberty, common law, and natural law in the foundingLearning from paradox: freedom and slavery at the founding; reform movements that appeal to founding idealsThe liberal discipline of history: observation, sympathy, and resisting ideologyWhat students should study: imagery, narratives, structures, data, geography, and the craft of storyCana Academy and HISTORY250®: films, documents, maps, and a “gift” aimed at cultural renewalA tour of the ideal classical history classroom: what you'd see, hear, and practiceKey Topics & TakeawaysHistory restores identity: A people who lose their story lose a clear sense of who they are—and what they owe to the dead and the unborn.Human agency is central: Against “history as a force,” the episode insists that persons mediate between past and present through decisions, sacrifices, and responsibilities.Ordered liberty requires memory: American freedom is rooted in inherited sources (biblical imagination, British rights, common law, natural law), and it decays when citizens forget the responsibilities that attend freedom.History trains moral realism without moralizing: Sympathy is not excuse-making; it is the disciplined effort to understand the human condition before passing judgment.The classroom must return to concrete realities: Great history teaching works from maps, artifacts, documents, portraits, letters, diaries, and place—so students learn “what actually happened.”Shared story creates shared sympathies: Art, poetry, and narrative shape communal feeling and help students situate their lives in a meaningful inheritance.Renewal is practical: Teacher formation, curated primary sources, and accessible tools (films, documents, maps) are presented as tangible ways to fight cultural amnesia.Questions & DiscussionWhat does it mean to study the past “in its pastness”?Discuss why people in the past may act in ways we do not recognize—or approve. How can teachers pursue truth without turning history into propaganda or therapy?How do observation and sympathy change the way we teach hard topics (war, slavery, injustice)?Identify one topic where your students tend to moralize quickly or dismissively. What sources (letters, diaries, speeches, laws, artifacts) could slow them down into careful understanding?What's the difference between “ordered liberty” and “license”?Describe a modern example where freedom is framed as “doing whatever I want.” What habits, texts, or stories could help students reconnect freedom to responsibility and the common good?Which leaders or movements best model “reform by remembering”? Compare at least two examples discussed (e.g., Douglass, Lincoln, King, Chavez). What did each retrieve from the past to address present suffering?What belongs in a strong history curriculum besides a textbook? Make a list under five headings: imagery, narratives, structural analysis, data, and geography. Choose one heading and propose one new classroom routine (weekly map-reading, document lab, portrait study, artifact analysis, narrative-writing).What would you see in a “great classical upper school” history class?Describe the sounds and practices: seminar discussion, source analysis, narration, map work, interpretive writing, and shared reading. What is one change you could make this term that moves your classroom closer to that ideal?Suggested Reading & ResourcesHistory Forgotten and Remembered by Andrew ZwernemanAmerican Slavery, American Freedom by Edmund S.

I sat down with Justin Francom, an independent Mormon fundamentalist living in Missouri, to discuss his journey from a traditional LDS background to an Independent Mormon fundamentalist. Francom's story is a compelling look at how his search for deeper doctrine can lead a “Jack Mormon” turned missionary into the world of independent fundamentalist. https://youtu.be/6oY7DnOq2Ec Don't miss our other conversations on Mormon fundamentalism: https://gospeltangents.com/denominations/fundamentalim/ Path to a Faith Crisis After serving an LDS mission in South Korea and marrying in the temple, Francom experienced a profound “culture shock” within the mainstream LDS Church in Utah. This feeling was exacerbated by changes to the temple ceremony, which left him spiritually unsatisfied. His search for answers led him to the writings of Denver Snuffer, specifically Passing of the Heavenly Gift. However, Snuffer's thesis—that the Restoration had essentially failed—left Francom feeling cynical and depressed. Finding Light in “Lost” Doctrines Francom’s path took a turn when he discovered the works of fundamentalist author Ogden Kraut. Unlike Snuffer's work, Kraut's writings on “lost” history and doctrines, such as prayer circles in the home and the Adam-God doctrine, rebolstered his faith and testimony. Francom describes receiving a personal spiritual witness of these doctrines, which created a wedge between him and mainstream LDS leadership, whom he felt had been untruthful about Church history. Rejecting “One-Manism” A central theme of Francom's transition is his rejection of “one-man doctrines“—the belief that priesthood authority is a rigid control structure funneled through a single living prophet. After investigating various groups like the AUB and the Peterson group, Francom found that they often emulated the same authoritarian behaviors he found troubling in the LDS Church. This led him to remain an independent Mormon fundamentalist, believing that the true vision of the Restoration was to create a “nation of prophets and priests.“ Reimagining Priesthood Authority as Mormon Fundamentalist The summary of Francom’s theological shift concludes with his introduction to a new interpretation of Section 132 via Sean Anderson. He argues that the “one man” referred to in scripture relates to the serial nature of conferring the fullness of the priesthood (the second anointing) rather than a restriction on how many people can hold the authority at once. By viewing priesthood as something to be perpetuated and shared rather than controlled, Francom finds a way to maintain his testimony of Joseph Smith and the temple while remaining outside of traditional institutional boundaries. What do you think?
Have you ever heard the phrase "healthy competition?" Competing is often viewed as a positive: we are told that it motivates us, drives innovation, and helps us excel. But what if this approach were mistaken, and competition actually causes more harm than good? In this panel discussion, author Ruchika T. Malhotra will be joined by Ijeoma Oluo, Ekin Yasin, and La'Kita Williams to explore the central ideas of her new book, Uncompete: Rejecting Competition to Unlock Success. Author Ruchika Malhotra offers a different framework for success than what we are used to. Uncompete argues that competition leads to exhaustion, anxiety, burnout, and an isolating lack of community. It encourages a scarcity mindset and keeps us from reaching our true potential. Instead, Malhotra argues, we should be investigating this cultural norm and even rewriting it into ways that are likely unfamiliar, such as by tapping into benign envy or finding joy in other people's victories. Drawing on interviews as well as Malhotra's own experiences working with corporations as an inclusion strategist, Uncompete promotes a culture of collaboration and mutuality. The book offers that this approach leads not only to a happier workplace, but one more likely to succeed. Likewise, it can also lead to happier and healthier lives even outside of work. Malhotra subverts the dominant, dog-eat-dog paradigm and makes a radical argument: there is room for everyone at the table and everyone can succeed. Ruchika T. Malhotra is the founder of Candour, a global inclusion strategy firm that has worked with some of the world's biggest organizations.

Romans 1:21-32
The Rebbe strongly rebukes a writer for claiming their efforts yielded no results, labeling such a pessimistic outlook as **ingratitude toward Heaven**. He explains that every action in **holiness** has a lasting impact and that one must focus on the **Divine mission** rather than personal feelings of success. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/005/6078
Can you train someone in spiritual gifts? Joshua Lewis walks through why training doesn't manufacture gifts of the Spirit, but rather creates a biblical, accountable community to discover and steward the spiritual gifts God has already given.If you've wondered how to grow in spiritual gifts without sliding into charismatic chaos, this episode will give you biblical categories, guardrails, and practical next steps. You'll see why training in spiritual gifts is less about hype and more about cultivating a theologically serious, Jesus-centered community that pursues Christian theology with real accountability.0:00 – Introduction0:31 – What training isn't1:41 – Sovereign gifts explained2:12 – Impartation, Paul's role2:51 – Rejecting unbiblical methods3:45 – Training defined biblically5:50 – Prophecy and healing model6:12 – How God speaks7:44 – Practicing prophecy safely8:30 – Objections and schools9:35 – Summary of training approach Support the showABOUT THE REMNANT RADIO:

Mike Madrid flies solo to unpack the future of Latino politics — and why 2026 could mark the beginning of an entirely new chapter.From Bad Bunny's Spanish-language Super Bowl moment to the political aftershocks of Trump 2.0, Mike breaks down what he calls a Latino inflection point: a generational shift away from blind party loyalty and toward accountability.Why are Latino voters swinging harder than any other group in America?Why are both Democrats and Republicans failing to deliver real results?And why is representation no longer enough?Mike challenges Latino elected officials across the country to stop patching up broken systems in education, housing, and economic opportunity, and instead have the courage to rebuild them entirely. His point: Latino voters may be the last true swing vote in America — not because they lack ideology, but because they're demanding results.Are Latino voters redefining American democracy — or exposing its failures?Tune in for one of the most candid and consequential conversations of the season.-Recorded February 11, 2026.-Referenced in the episode:PPIC - 'Remedial Courses in Community Colleges are a Major Hurdle to Success': https://www.ppic.org/press-release/remedial-courses-in-community-colleges-are-major-hurdle-to-success/PPIC - 'Remedial Education in California's Colleges and Universities': https://www.ppic.org/publication/remedial-education-in-californias-colleges-and-universities/Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more episodes of The Latino Vote Podcast!

Mike dismantles the latest Epstein smears by breaking down newly released FBI documents showing Trump reported Jeffrey Epstein to police years before the scandal exploded. He explains why the media’s obsession with speculation distracts from facts, and how guilt-by-association politics is being weaponized to destroy reputations. Mike then widens the lens to culture and immigration, calling out the NFL halftime backlash, elite contempt for American identity, and Democrats caught on tape saying the opposite of what they preach today. The throughline is simple: the truth keeps colliding with narratives built to sabotage values, culture, and trust in elections.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The 2026 Winter Olympics have officially begun. In celebration we look back on a team favourite two-parter – the story of Hayley Wickenheiser. She's the longest-serving member of Canada's national team with seven World Championships and four Olympic gold medals to her name. Many consider her the GOAT. But before becoming Canada's women's all-time leader in international goals, assists and points, Wickenheiser was told hockey was for boys. She was rejected for teams, bullied on the ice and kicked off teams solely on the basis of sex. Hope you'll join us – and let's go Canada! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

He recalls his early musical influences, the rise of Plantashun Boiz, and the creative tensions that shaped his journey, particularly around “African Queen.”Idibia emphasizes the importance of family, privacy, and love in marriage, while candidly acknowledging past shortcomings as a father. He also urges Nigerian youth to participate actively in politics, describing music as a tool to guide social responsibility and calling for accountability at all levels of government.Rejecting comparisons between Fela Kuti and Wizkid, Idibia stresses the unique legacy of each artist. While keeping his political ambitions open, he continues to prioritize live performance and the development of Nigerian music, balancing fame, business, and civic advocacy.Guest:2Face Idibia(Legendary Nigerian Singer / Civic Advocate)
Jenny Blake, author of "Free Time," reveals how her father—an architect who gives ruthless editorial feedback with his "WKIYB" abbreviation (we know it's your book)—taught her to eliminate unnecessary qualifiers and strengthen her writing. Drawing from her experience creating a paid family newsletter at age 11 with 50 subscribers, Blake has always been entrepreneurial, guided by her mother's lesson: "you should always know how to support yourself." As the breadwinner in her marriage who rejects traditional domestic roles, Blake challenges societal pressures on both men and women around earning and gender expectations. She introduces the "time-to-revenue ratio"—a missing P&L metric that measures how much time it takes to generate revenue—arguing that revenue, ease, and joy aren't mutually exclusive. Blake dismantles Benjamin Franklin's "time is money" myth, explaining that business owners aren't rewarded for butt-in-seat time and that working less actually requires more sophistication through systems, automation, and delegation. Her three-part framework—align, design, assign—helps entrepreneurs optimize what's now, not just navigate what's next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
American culture tends to market aging as a slow fade into the background. After all, women are told that getting older comes with a loss of relevance, memory, and attractiveness.

Erin Friday is an attorney and the co-lead of Our Duty, a parent-led international organization that opposes transgender procedures for minors.When her daughter was 13 years old, she began identifying as male, and school staff began using a male name and pronouns to address her—without the knowledge or consent of her parents.When Friday found out, she called the school and told them to stop. A week later, Child Protective Services showed up at her door—followed by the police a day later. No action was taken against Friday, but it was an alarming experience for her.A few months later, her daughter ran away in the middle of the night. Under normal circumstances, a parent would probably call the police, but Friday didn't dare to, having heard about parents who had lost custody of their children when they refused to go along with their child's transgender identity.“It's two o‘clock in the morning, three o'clock in the morning, and I can't make that phone call because I know that there's already a file open on me, and that Child Protective Services can swoop in at any time and take my child,” Friday said.“I made a deal that if I could safeguard my daughter from this—which I did—that I would help save other parents and save other children.”For years now, she has joined the legal fight against school policies that allow social transitioning of minors without parental consent and medical guidelines that support puberty blockers and hormones for minors.“When have we ever treated a mental illness by cutting off body parts?” Friday says.In our wide-ranging interview, we discuss the legal battles Friday has been involved in against Child Protective Services and the state of California over the past few years.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
The Jesse Scouts crippled Lee's retreat by intercepting supply trains, forcing the Confederate surrender at Appomattox. Rejecting guerrilla warfare to preserve the nation, Lee accepted Grant's respectful terms. Post-war, former partisan Mosby surprisingly became a Republican and close friend of President Grant, aiding national reconciliation.
It’s amazing how quickly a small thing can throw everything off. In music, even one string slightly out of tune can disrupt an entire song. This devotional begins with that image—musicians tuning their instruments before a performance, listening closely for what’s true, steady, and right. With practice, they can detect when a note is off. And once the instruments are tuned properly, the music becomes harmonious and beautiful, just as it was designed to be. In the same way, our lives can drift out of tune when we start listening to the wrong voices. The world constantly offers messages about what will make us happy, secure, or successful—wealth, status, comfort, possessions, or even cynicism and hopelessness. Some of those messages sound convincing, especially when our hearts are tired or our spiritual ears aren’t trained. But when we tune ourselves to the world’s “notes,” we often end up with more confusion, discord, and heartache. The devotional points to Rehoboam as a warning about what happens when we listen to voices that feel familiar or flattering rather than wise and true. He rejected the counsel of experienced elders and followed the advice that appealed to him—leading to major loss. It’s a reminder that what seems right in the moment isn’t always right, and that wisdom often requires humility and discernment. So how do we tune our lives to God’s voice instead? We practice. We develop a trained ear by spending consistent time in Scripture, praying for understanding, and allowing God’s Word to shape our thinking. As we read, memorize, and meditate, the Holy Spirit brings truth to mind when we need guidance. Over time, God aligns our hearts and choices so our lives begin to reflect His hope, His wisdom, and His story. And when we’re tuned to Him, our lives become a kind of worship—steady, purposeful, and pleasing to the One who made us. Main Takeaways Just like instruments need tuning, our hearts and minds can drift out of alignment over time. The world offers convincing messages, but they often lead to discord and discouragement. Rehoboam’s story warns us about the cost of listening to the wrong voices. Tuning to God’s voice requires practice through Scripture, prayer, and spiritual attentiveness. As God renews our minds, our lives become more harmonious and honoring to Him. Today’s Bible Verse “The king answered the people harshly. Rejecting the advice given him by the elders, he followed the advice of the young men and said, ‘My father made your yoke heavy; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions.’” - 1 Kings 12:13-14, NIV Your Daily Prayer Here is a brief excerpt from today’s prayer: “Lead me away from the path of Rehoboam… Renew my mind, Holy Spirit, so that I may understand and follow the will of God.” You can listen to the full prayer or read the devotional at the links below.

President Donald Trump's obsession with Greenland isn't new. Back in 2019, he made an offer to buy the island, but was told by Denmark and Greenland that it was not for sale. It still isn't – as Denmark, France, the United Kingdom, and the good people of Greenland itself keep making incredibly clear. But Trump is not the first U.S. President to express interest in the island. So how did we get here? For more on our long, weird relationship with Greenland, we spoke to Ronald Doel. He's a professor at Florida State University and co-editor of “Exploring Greenland: Cold War Science and Technology on Ice.”And in headlines, Congress releases the text of a new funding package to keep the government open, President Trump gives a very weird press briefing, and the measles is having a record resurgence in the U.S.Show Notes:Check out Exploring Greenland: Cold War Science and Technology on IceCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION OF ALF LANDON Colleague David Pietrusza. The Republican Partysearches for a candidate to challenge FDR, rejecting a return of Herbert Hoover. After considering isolationist William Borah and publisher Frank Knox, they settle on Kansas Governor Alf Landon. Known as the "Kansas Coolidge," Landon is a progressive Republican who balanced his state budget, though he is considered unexciting. William Randolph Hearst throws his support behind Landon, ordering his papers to praise the governor. Landon secures the nomination largely because the GOP talent pool was decimated by previous election losses, making his rise to the top a "fluke."

Segment 1 • Not all doctrinal errors are created equal: some are skin-deep, while some are truly fatal. • Denying core attributes of God (justice, omnipotence, Trinity) moves you firmly outside Christian orthodoxy. • Secondary issues can quietly morph into primary threats if they implicate larger, more central theological issues. Segment 2 • Hell may be a secondary issue… but it's not just a “friendly disagreement.” • Rejecting eternal punishment often stems from seeking to redefine God's character as only loving. • It may seem harmless, but it warps the gospel and threatens scriptural foundations. Segment 3 • Phil Johnson says that questions can be asked, but not every doctrine should be endlessly debated. • If one wants to deny hell, one usually has to get around some pretty clear words from Jesus. • Most historical rejections of hell came from cults or liberal fringe—not the faithful church. Segment 4 • Today's “just asking questions” mindset is often doubt disguised as curiosity. • Hell isn't up for revision—it's central to Jesus' message and the urgency of the gospel. • Tone matters, but clarity matters more: eternal conscious torment is the historic, biblical truth. ___ Thanks for listening!
