Fangirls Going Rogue: Star Wars Conversation from a Female POV
To wrap up the epic summer season, Fangirls Going Rogue's Social Media Manager Sandra Choute joins hosts Sarah Woloski and Tricia Barr on this month's episode. Don't worry! Teresa Delgado conquers her work and joins for her favorite segment: Collecting Corner. We asked our listeners what makes them #fangirlflail? Ted Lasso (Apple TV) was a clear favorite, as was The Owl House (Disney Channel). The Fangirls Going Rogue crew shared their excitement for Marvel's What If...? (Disney+), "Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian - The Making of Season 2 Finale" (Disney+), and the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer. Our character discussion focuses on The Bad Batch's Omega. Now that we've seen the first season, we ponder how she has changed the titular characters and our minds. DON'T FORGET OUR ZOOM DISCUSSIONS SATURDAY NIGHTS AT 8 PM ET/5 PM PT.

Welcome to the 72nd episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast! This week, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- embrace the newest (oldest?) additions to the Disney+ library in the form of its "Vintage Collection," specifically, the group reviews the Genndy Tartakovsky "Clone Wars" micro-series. For the uninitiated, this series is different than the Dave Filoni-helmed "Clone Wars" cartoon that recently concluded in 2020. Taking a cue from last week's "Justice League" discussion, they talk about the value in getting two different versions of the same story, but more importantly, why every Star Wars fan should check this anime-inspired series out. There are a TON of reasons to watch. Listen on Podbean, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Pandora, Tune In + Alexa, Amazon Music/Audible, iHeartRadio, and follow us on Twitter & Facebook!

On the spur of the moment, we decided to do a Q and A episode on Mike’s channel on the Twitch streaming platform and take some questions from viewers there. We don’t usually act as experts on this show, but it’s ok once in a while, right? News reports have come out this week about the possibility of 24 Hour Fitness filing for bankruptcy protection. What impact would that have on the fitness industry? Some of the issues we covered: What is daily undulating periodization? (Related) What is auto-regulation in training? What can we talk about on 4/20? What do you say on a first date? (Check this past episode.) Hosted by Mike Farr (@silentmikke) and Jim McDonald (@thejimmcd).

"I think what Luke is trying to help us see is that God doesn't care about your background; He doesn't care about your religiousness." In the last episode, Keith (https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/keith-simon/) talked about Zachariah's response when the angel Gabriel visited him. This time, Keith discusses Mary's response. God made great promises to both of Zachariah and Mary. He didn't care about their contrasting reputations or social standing. Explore what God does care about as Keith reads through Luke 1:26-45 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=luke+1%3A26-45&version=NIV) to continue our series on Learning to Follow Jesus.

"There's kind of a disconnect between the way we talk about how somebody begins a relationship with Jesus and how Jesus actually talked to people. We make it about this moment of asking people to be our Savior, but that's not the way Jesus talks." If someone asks you how to become a Christian, what do you say? Do you tell them to pray a prayer that accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior? It's a common answer, but Keith (https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/keith-simon/) explain what's wrong with it in this episode as they introduce our new series: Learning to Follow Jesus. Join us as we go through the Gospel of Luke to learn how to become a Christian and what that really means. In this episode, we talk about the bigger story of the Bible.

"One scholar calls this (https://www.jstor.org/stable/43717700?seq=1) . [...] They're not just ideas. No, these future possibilities represent human lives. As the king goes, so the people go.

Leaders don't only shape the future; they impact its viability. They can create the future, and they can destroy it.

Speaker or Performer: Bob Petersen Date of Delivery: August 4, 2019 QuotesCharles Capps Death Testimony:On Friday, February 21, 2014 Charles Capps told his wife Peggy that he would be “going home” on Sunday. He went to bed on Saturday night and woke up in Heaven about 5:30 Sunday morning, February 23, 2014.ScripturesHebrews 2:15and [that He] might free all those who through [the haunting] fear of death were held in slavery throughout their lives.1 THESSALONIANS 4:13Now we do not want you to be uninformed, believers, about those who are asleep [in death], so that you will not grieve [for them] as the others do who have no hope [beyond this present life].Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil;For You are with me;Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.John 11:25Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies.Revelation 1:17-19 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. And He placed His right hand on me, saying, Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last,and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.ArticlesAFRAID OF DEATH OR DYING? BIBLE STUDY ON FEAR OF DEATHConquer the fear of death and dying with God’s helpby Doug Britton, MFTDo you fear death or dying?Many people, including Christians, are afraid of death or afraid of dying. In fact many people are consumed by the fear of death and dying. Or they are afraid of suffering as they die. If this describes you, you aren't alone. Even David, a man who wrote much of the Bible, sometimes was afraid of dying:My heart is in anguish within me; the terrors of death assail me. (Psalm 55:4)Do you worry about end-of-life issues?Many people have end-of-life fears. For example, some people fear that they will be a burden to others in their last years, or that their spouse or children who are left behind will suffer.If you worry about or fear death or dying, or if you have other end-of-life fears, take some time to read and meditate on the passages in this Bible study. Pray as you read. Ask God to remove your death fears and help you see things through his eyes. God does not want you to be afraid of death or afraid of dying.When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? (1 Corinthians 15:54-55)Turn to God to overcome your fear of death or dyingJesus came to reconcile us with God, free us from the fear of death and dying, and to give us the assurance of eternal life with him.How can we be reconciled with God?Jesus said, You must be born again (John 3:7). He also said, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6).The apostle Paul helped us understand how to be reconciled with God when he wrote the following:If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. (Romans 10:9-10)God created you, and he loves you more than you can imagine.If you have not yet done so, I invite you to surrender your life to Christ by saying the following as a prayer:Dear Lord, I confess that I am a sinner. Please forgive my sins and accept me as your child. I invite you to be my Savior and the Lord of my life. I surrender myself to you in the name of Jesus Christ.If you prayed with sincerity, Christ accepted you into his Kingdom. You are now a Christian — a follower of Jesus. Welcome to the family of God!Related: What is salvation or being born again?Jesus came to set us free from the fear of death and dying.When you are with Jesus, you do not need to be afraid of death or afraid of dying. There is no more need to fear the end of your life.Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil—and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. (Hebrews 2:14-15)Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this? (John 11:25-26)Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints. (Psalm 116:15)Overcome the fear of death or dying by thinking about heaven.It's normal to be afraid of death or dying. One way to overcome being afraid of death or being afraid of dying is to think about spending eternity with Jesus. God has an amazing plan.Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. (Romans 8:23)Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling. (2 Corinthians 5:1-2)For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. (2 Corinthians 5:4)We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. (2 Corinthians 5:8)But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Philippians 3:20)Don't be afraid of death or dying — heaven will be amazing.Death is not the end of life. Your spiritual body is eternal, and heaven will be unbelievably wonderful.Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing. (2 Timothy 4:8)So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. (1 Corinthians 15:42-44)No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him—but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. (1 Corinthians 2:9-10)Don't be afraid of death or dying — you will be with Jesus.If you have been reconciled with God, you are part of his family. You will be with Jesus forever.Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God ; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. (John 14:1-3)If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection. (Romans 6:5)Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-14)After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. (1 Thessalonians 4:17)Don't be afraid of death or dying — there will be no sorrow or tears in heaven.He will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth. The LORD has spoken. (Isaiah 25:8)For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. (Revelation 7:17)He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. (Revelation 21:4)Related: Defeating anxiety, fear and worryDon't fear suffering before you die.God will be with you and strengthen you no matter what you go through. He will comfort you and help you overcome the fear of death and the fear of dying.Be inspired by the confidence of Paul, Peter, and John. Here's how they looked at suffering (or dying) for their faith:I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. (Romans 8:18-19)For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:17-18)Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade—kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. (1 Peter 1:3-6)They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. (Revelation 12:11)God sometimes takes the righteous away to spare them from evil.The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death. (Isaiah 57:1-2)Don't fear you will be a burden to others.People sometimes fear dying because they think they will be a burden to others. That's a normal end-of-life fear. But the Bible says we are all connected to one another (Romans 12:4-8 and 1 Corinthians 12:12-27). God expects us to care for one another. Although it sometimes can be a burden, caring for others can also be a blessing, for we give of ourselves that we become more like Christ.And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)Don't fear for those you will leave behind.If you die before your spouse, children, parents or other significant people in your life, they likely will miss you. If you die when they are living with you, they probably will miss your love, support, and care. Yet God loves them much more than you do.Write a will and provide as best you can for the future, then put yourself and your family in God's hands. Don't be afraid of death or dying for their sake. If you die first, God will still be with them. Remember, he loves them much more than you do.But you, O God, do see trouble and grief; you consider it to take it in hand. The victim commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless. (Psalm 10:14)A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. (Psalm 68:5)Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. (Philippians 4:6-8)Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7)Overcome the fear of death or dying — you have a purpose.Let the verses in this study help you overcome being afraid of death or afraid of dying. But don't stop there. God wants you to make a difference while you are here on earth. He wants you to touch the world for Christ. Meditate on the verses on this page, overcome your fear of death, then make a difference for Christ!For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. (Ephesians 2:10)For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body. Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith. (Philippians 1:21-25)If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. (Romans 14:8)Related: You have a purposeOvercome the fear of death or dying — remember God's love.Knowing and remembering that God loves you is one of the most powerful ways to overcome the fear of death, dying, or other end-of-life issues.Give thanks to the God of heaven. His love endures forever. (Psalm 136:26)For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:38-39)

This is an exclusive interview that Bill recently had with Firmsconsulting where he shared some counter-intuitive concepts you will not hear anywhere else. Bill was the partner who helped develop and implement the McKinsey philosophy that helped the firm pull ahead of BCG in the 1980’s and 1990’s. He was thereafter the partner who led BCG’s efforts to overtake McKinsey. Why are we releasing this on the first day of the year? We want you to take an aggressive hold of your career this year and begin investing in your future from the first day of the year. This insightful, inspiring and counter intuitive podcast explains the steps McKinsey took in the 1980’s to reposition the firm. To be exceptional, planning is meaningless unless you know what to plan. You need a point of differentiation and you need to consistently drive that difference.
