In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by two of the best experts on the Canon of the Bible, my friends Matthew Mark McWhorter and Gary Michuta. Together, we'll dig into exactly why Protestant Bibles are smaller than Catholic Bibles – what happened to the missing books and the unfounded theories that led to them being removed. We look at modern evidence which proves that the Catholic canon of Scripture was what Jesus and the apostles were reading, that it contains more intact and reliable versions of Scripture, and that Jerome's famous thesis – which led Martin Luther to REMOVE books from the Bible – is historically false, and has been proven so!

Presented by Julie Busteed We've been looking at some of the proverbs Jesus said. Here's another proverb from his Sermon on the Mount. Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you (Matthew 7:1–2). Those words make me pause every time. I find it easy to assume I'm not a judgmental person. But when I slow down and examine my thoughts—the quiet commentary running through my mind, the subtle remarks I may make—I realize I'm not as innocent as I'd like to think. And that's when confession and repentance become necessary. Jesus isn't telling us to abandon discernment. We are called to think wisely and evaluate situations carefully. There's a difference between discernment and judgment. Discernment seeks truth. Judgment often seeks to elevate self. You and I are not to judge others to build ourselves up. Every one of us has areas to grow. Every one of us has blind spots. Jesus continues with a vivid picture: Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye (Matthew 7:3–5). It's such a striking image—a tiny speck versus a massive plank. And yet, how often do I focus on the speck? For me, it's usually the small, internal judgments—the quiet criticisms that serve no real purpose. They don't help the other person. They don't help me. In fact, they only create unnecessary stress and tension in my own heart. Why am I so concerned about someone else's issue, especially when I may struggle with something similar? Perhaps that's exactly why I notice it so quickly. Sometimes what irritates us most in others reveals something God wants to address in us. Jesus' words invite humility. Before I point out someone else's flaw, I need to allow the Lord to search my own heart. Remove the plank. Do the work of repentance. Ask him to soften my spirit. Pray as King David prayed: Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me and lead me in the way everlasting (Psalm 139: 23-24).

In this episode, Jessica speaks with Susan Morgan, Education Practice Leader at CannonDesign, about radically student-centered design in educational spaces. Susan shares her unique journey from participating in school design projects as a 10-year-old Montessori student to becoming an architect dedicated to creating learning environments that inspire curiosity. She discusses innovative projects including the Irman Crest Elementary School—a groundbreaking collaboration with the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh—and the ongoing Independence High School project. The conversation explores how buildings can become tools for learning rather than just containers for activities, and how exposing students to diverse opportunities through intentional spatial design can unlock their potential. Takeaways: Buildings as learning tools: Design schools that actively participate in learning, not just house it Start with "what if": Invite all stakeholders to reimagine possibilities before focusing on constraints Remove barriers to curiosity: Create environments that support natural learning instincts rather than limiting them Make opportunities visible: Use spatial connections so students are exposed to disciplines they might not otherwise discover Design for adaptability: Treat schools like museums—plan for environments to evolve with changing pedagogy and technology When learners thrive, communities flourish: This is the heart of radically student-centered design Learn More About Kay-Twelve: Website: https://kay-twelve.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kay-twelve-com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kay_twelve/ Episode 304 of the Better Learning Podcast Kevin Stoller is the host of the Better Learning Podcast and Co-Founder of Kay-Twelve, a national leader for educational furniture.

It's Not Closed Till Money Is in the Bank Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Founders seeking funding will hear yes from an investor. Many founders consider the funding to be done. Founders should move to close the funding and not rest until the funds have been transferred. Many funding commitments never materialize. Issues come up in diligence. The investor has cash flow issues or unexpected expenses. Bad news from the financial markets shakes the investor's confidence. To close the funding, set up a timeline with the investor. Baby step in the process to get the documents signed, the diligence done, and the funds transferred. Remove areas of friction, such as docu-signing the investment documents. Diligence is a key area to watch out for, as new information will come to light. This will have the most impact on an investor's decision. Finally, keep the fundraise going. It's not closed till money is in the bank. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

In this powerful episode of The Unapologetic Man Podcast, host Mark Sing shares his secret NLP protocol to dismantle the negative beliefs that make you behave badly around women. Your beliefs create your behavior and reality—if you're not pulling girls or getting results, fear-based beliefs like "I'm not enough," "She'll reject me," or "I'm better off alone" are sabotaging you by shaping your actions and attracting more proof they're true. Mark explains the two core emotions (love vs. fear), why these limiting beliefs stick (they self-reinforce, feel protective, and follow easy neural pathways), how they install in childhood, and simple tools to question these negative beliefs and drop them completely.  Key Takeaways: - Beliefs dictate your behavior and results - How negative beliefs kill confidence and make you unattractive to women - Why beliefs persist: survival instinct, unconscious "protection," familiar brain pathways - They form early from parents, media, and suggestibility, often not even yours - Don't believe everything you think; choose empowering beliefs to change your reality Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] – Episode intro [00:00:37] – Beliefs create behavior and reality [00:01:42] – Love vs. fear: the two core emotions [00:04:20] – Why negative beliefs stick around (survival) [00:08:05] – Neural programming [00:09:14] – The first 7 years of life [00:14:29] – Tools to identify and drop limiting beliefs [00:17:42] – Client success story [00:21:18] – Final profound insight: challenges for soul growth [00:24:59] – Hip recovery update and wrap-up [00:27:11] – Episode outro Connect With Mark: Apply for Mark's 3-Month Coaching Program: https://coachmarksing.com/coaching/ Check Out The Perks Program: https://coachmarksing.com/perks/ Email: CoachMarkSing@Gmail.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachmarksing/ Grab Mark's Free Program: The Approach Formula - https://www.CoachMarkSing.com/The-Approach-Formula About The Unapologetic Man Podcast The Unapologetic Man Podcast is your resource for mastering dating, attraction, and relationships from a confident, masculine perspective.

Radical respect is the prequel to radical candor. Without it, you won't bother challenging anyone. In this encore episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Kim Scott, author of Radical Candor and Radical Respect, to tackle the workplace dynamics that quietly destroy firm culture. Kim shares how a colleague's feedback on her own book exposed the blind spots she had around bias, prejudice, and bullying in the workplace, ultimately leading her to write Radical Respect. This conversation reveals how leaders accidentally exclude top talent through "oblivious" promotion processes, and why the brilliant jerk who delivers results will ultimately cost you more than they're worth. Kim gives you the exact language to use when things get uncomfortable, so you stop defaulting to silence. Here's what you'll learn: The difference between bias, prejudice, and bullying, and how to respond to each The “I/It/You” framework for course-correcting conversations that lack respect How to create a shared vocabulary for disrupting bias on your team It's better to have a hole in your team than an asshole on your team. ---- Show Notes: 03:09 – The feedback from a black woman CEO that made Kim realize what she'd missed. 09:15 – How to know if you're dealing with bias, prejudice, or bullying in the moment. 09:15 – The I, It, You framework for responding to each type of disrespect. 16:14 – Why leaders need to create three types of consequences for bullying behavior. 19:38 – The difference between healthy conflict and repeated bullying that ignores feedback. 20:55 – What it means to be an upstander versus a bystander when you witness bias. 23:46 – Why silence is the default and how to calculate the ROI of speaking up. 26:40 – How to create a shared vocabulary so your team knows what to say when bias happens. 36:06 – How oblivious exclusion shows up in promotion meetings and how to catch it. ---- Links & Resources: Radical Respect by Kim Scott Radical Candor by Kim Scott Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman Radical Candor Podcast Bob Sutton Episode 25.

Gifts are not the goal. They are partial. They are temporary. They are imperfect. We must never boast in spiritual gifts. Our boast is in Christ—the embodiment of love. He is the “perfect” who has come and who will come again. One day faith will become sight. Hope will be fulfilled. But love—love remains.In verses 4–7, love is personified. Love acts in patience. Love moves in kindness. Love endures. Love refuses envy and pride. Put your own name in place of “love,” and the verdict is humbling. We do not measure up. Put Jesus' name there—and every line rings true.This is teaching on the gifts with gospel fluency. We do not meet the standard of agape. We do not embody hesed (God's covenant love) on our own—Christ does. And He fulfilled that love in our place. He accomplished our salvation. He now draws us into His restoring work among His people and in His world.Remove love from the gifts, and they become noise—religious performance indistinguishable from pagan worship. But when love governs the gifts because Christ is Savior and Lord, our lives reveal Jesus, the church is strengthened, and God is glorified.

Episode Title: Sky Rings, Supreme Court Limits & Olympic Pride Runtime: ~35 minutes Tone: Fast-moving, high-energy, multi-topic flagship episode

The long-running battle to remove Prince Andrew from Royal Lodge has been less about real estate and more about status, optics, and consequence. Royal Lodge, a sprawling property in Windsor Great Park, became a symbol of Andrew's continued proximity to royal privilege even after he stepped back from public duties following the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. As public pressure mounted and his formal roles were stripped away, questions intensified over why he continued to occupy one of the most prestigious royal residences. Reports indicated that King Charles sought to streamline royal finances and reduce the footprint of working royals, which in practice meant reassessing Andrew's position at Royal Lodge. The property carries substantial upkeep costs, and critics argued that a non-working royal facing serious reputational damage should not retain such a high-profile residence funded, directly or indirectly, through royal resources.The dispute reportedly stretched over years, marked by negotiations, financial maneuvering, and quiet but persistent pressure to relocate Andrew to smaller accommodations, such as Frogmore Cottage. Andrew resisted, citing the long-term lease he holds on Royal Lodge and asserting that he had privately funded renovations and maintenance. The standoff became a proxy war over accountability: whether symbolic consequences would match the gravity of the scandal that engulfed him. While Andrew maintained his right to remain under the lease terms, the broader monarchy faced reputational strain so long as he continued residing there. The struggle over Royal Lodge ultimately reflected the tension between legal entitlement and public legitimacy, underscoring how deeply the Epstein fallout reshaped Andrew's standing within both the Royal Family and public life.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Most leaders want "alignment," but what they really need is movement—people actually doing the new thing. Motivating action is devilishly hard because humans cling to habits, defend their comfort, and only rent logic after emotion has already bought the decision.  Below is a practical, talk-design framework you can use in leadership meetings, sales kick-offs, internal change programs, and client presentations—especially when you need people to stop nodding and start acting. Is motivating people to change really that difficult? Yes—because habit beats good intentions, and people protect the status quo like it's their job. Even when everyone agrees "something should change," most of us quietly mean other people should change first. In workshops, a tiny experiment proves it: put your watch on the other wrist or fold your arms the "wrong" way. Your brain throws a mini tantrum. That discomfort is what you're up against in every change initiative—whether you're a sales manager in Japan rolling out a new CRM process, or a team lead in the United States trying to shift meeting culture post-pandemic. In practice, logic explains change, but emotion powers it. People act on feeling, then justify with reasons. Do now: Identify the one habit your audience is clinging to—and name the discomfort your change will create. What's the first step to get others to take action? Start with the end in mind: choose one concrete action that is easy to understand and feels easy to do. If the action sounds complicated, political, or time-consuming, motivation evaporates. Leaders often blow it here by proposing "transformation" instead of a single step: "be more customer-centric," "collaborate better," "innovate faster." That's fog, not action. A better move is something measurable: "book three customer interviews this week," "open every proposal with a problem statement," "run a 15-minute pre-brief before the monthly meeting." This works in startups and multinationals because it reduces cognitive load—the brain loves clarity. Make the action small enough to start, but meaningful enough to matter. Do now: Write the action as a verb + object + deadline (e.g., "Call five dormant clients by Friday"). How do you make the audience actually want to do it? You must attach a strong "what's in it for me" benefit that beats the comfort of doing nothing. People don't resist change—they resist loss: time, status, certainty, competence, control. So the benefit can't be vague ("better culture") or distant ("future growth"). It needs punch: less rework, fewer angry customers, faster deals, fewer escalations, more autonomy, more commission, more trust from senior leadership. This is where comparisons help: what motivates action in Australia may be framed around practicality and time; in Japan it may be framed around risk reduction, quality, and team credibility; in the US it may lean toward speed and individual ownership. Same human wiring—different packaging. Do now: Pick one benefit and make it tangible: "This saves you two hours a week" beats "This improves productivity." Why does "telling people what to do" backfire? Because direct instructions trigger resistance, especially in experienced teams who think, "Don't boss me." If you open with the action, you invite critics to immediately attack it. Executives at firms like Toyota and Rakuten (and frankly, any organisation with smart people) have learned that persuasion is smoother when the audience arrives at the conclusion themselves. That's why context matters: when listeners hear the reality, they often decide the action is sensible before you recommend it. You're not forcing them—you're guiding them. This is especially useful across cultures and hierarchies, where blunt "do this" language can be interpreted as disrespectful or naïve. Do now: Remove your first-slide instruction. Replace it with the situation that makes the change feel inevitable. How do you use storytelling to drive action in a talk? Tell the incident with enough real-world detail that people can see it—and feel it—in their mind's eye. Story is the bridge between logic and emotion. Use people, place, season, and time. Not because it's "cute," but because specificity creates belief. "Last quarter, in our Tokyo client meeting…" lands harder than "sometimes clients…" A story can be your experience, a customer moment, a mistake, a near miss, or a win—anything that explains why you believe the action matters. This is where you build credibility without preaching. Keep it tight, but vivid. The goal isn't theatre; the goal is emotional engagement that makes action feel like relief. Do now: Draft a 60–90 second incident story with (1) who, (2) where, (3) what happened, (4) what it cost. What is the "Magic Formula" for motivating others to action? Plan your talk as action → benefit → incident, but deliver it in reverse: incident → action → benefit. This is the Magic Formula.  Here's why it works: the incident neutralises opposition. Instead of a room full of critics, you create a room full of co-diagnosticians. They hear the context, they connect the dots, and they start forming the same conclusion you already reached. By the time you state the action, they're mentally ahead of you—agreeing. Keep it disciplined: one action only, and one strongest benefit only. Multiple actions split attention; multiple benefits dilute impact. This is as true in B2B sales as it is in leadership change programs. Do now: Build your next talk in three parts: Incident (70%), Action (15%), Benefit (15%). One action. One best benefit. Conclusion: turning agreement into action Motivation isn't magic—it's design. When you make the action clear, the benefit personal, and the story vivid, you stop fighting human nature and start working with it. Whether you're leading change in Japan, selling into global accounts, or trying to shift internal behaviour, the goal is the same: move people from "interesting" to "I'm doing it." Quick next steps for leaders Write your one action in a single sentence. Choose your one strongest benefit (make it measurable). Script your incident story with real detail. Deliver in this order: Incident → Action → Benefit. End with a deadline and an immediate first step.

Former UK ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Mandelson was fired and has been under investigation over his alleged ties to Jeffrey Epstein. It comes as Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has written to his UK counterpart Keir Starmer, calling for the former Prince Andrew to be removed from the royal line of succession. Australia correspondent Donna Demaio told Ryan Bridge the line of succession is a very complex legal framework. She says the charges require all Commonwealth countries to pass new laws, but Albanese says they're grave allegations and Australia takes them very seriously.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 5:13. Some threats don't walk through the front door shouting. They slip in quietly, sit in the pew, smile during worship, and destroy slowly. Paul ends this chapter by ripping the mask off one of the greatest dangers to a church's health: unrepentant sin that everyone sees but no one confronts. God judges those outside. "Purge the evil person from among you." — 1 Corinthians 5:13 Paul doesn't whisper this. He doesn't soften the command. He ends the chapter with a call so sharp we can feel the edge of it: remove what is destroying the body of Christ before it destroys you. He's not talking about someone who's struggling or fighting sin. He's talking about the person who refuses correction, rejects repentance, and insists on living in open rebellion while claiming the name of Christ. This kind of sin doesn't stay contained. It spreads. It shapes culture. It numbs conviction. It confuses new believers. And eventually it corrupts the whole church. First | Unrepentant sin isn't just harmful—it's contagious. This command echoes Jesus' words about cutting off a hand or tearing out an eye. Some things must be removed decisively because they can't be managed gently. If we don't cut out what kills us, it will cut out what's holy in us. And Paul draws a hard line that every believer must take seriously... Second | God judges the outside world. The church must judge what's inside. Our job is not to police unbelievers—God handles that. Our job is to protect the church. Not to condemn the world, but to guard the family of God. Not to rage at culture, but to confront the compromise within our own community. This means addressing sin when we see it—not ignoring it, excusing it, or hoping it disappears. When a believer we love is drifting into rebellion, we step in. We speak clearly. We call them back. We risk the awkward conversation. That's what love does. It also means raising concerns when leaders overlook sin. Paul's command applies to pastors, elders, small group leaders, and every believer in the house. If something poisonous is spreading, silence is not faithfulness. Silence is surrender. And sometimes—this part is hard—the right response is to leave. If your church normalizes what God condemns, if leaders minimize sin or celebrate what Scripture calls destructive, if purity is treated as optional and holiness is mocked as legalism, then the command of Paul lands on your doorstep... Third | Flee. Don't let corruption disciple you. Don't stay where sin is protected. Don't remain where truth is optional. Leaving isn't betrayal. Leaving is protection. Leaving is obedience. Leaving is spiritual survival. Paul ends the chapter with a decision-point: Will we be a church that trims sin—or a church that tolerates it? Purge what pollutes. Remove what corrodes. Cut what kills. Protect what's holy. Guard what Christ died to make clean. The world doesn't shape us. Sin doesn't define us. And compromise doesn't get a seat at the table. Christ leads us. Holiness marks us. Courage protects us. This is how chapter 5 ends—with fire and clarity. And now it's our turn to act. DO THIS: Ask God to reveal one area of compromise—personal or within your church—that needs decisive action. Speak up, confront it, or walk away if needed. Protect what's holy. ASK THIS: What sin have I tolerated that God wants removed? Where do I need to speak up instead of staying silent? Is my church confronting sin—or quietly accepting it? PRAY THIS: Father, give me courage to remove whatever harms my walk with You. Help me protect the purity of Your church and confront sin with boldness, humility, and conviction. Keep me faithful and fearless as I follow Your Word. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Clean Heart"

A Prayer to Welcome Accountability with Rachael Adams Can we choose to speak the truth in live-even when it's uncomfortable?In this episode, Rachael shares a personal story of conviction after a social gathering, and through that story we’re reminded that accountability is a gift from God. Just as the prophet Nathan courageously confronted King David, we are called to lovingly challenge one another so we can grow in Christ and live lives that honor Him. Reference: Ephesians 4:15 Prayer: Father, guide and teach me what is true. Implant your truth in my heart so I am not deceived by the lies of this world and the enemy's schemes. Remove any apathy I may have for the behavior of others and give me the courage to sharpen the people in my life as iron sharpens iron. If you are leading me to intervene, let my words be filled with grace and love. May I also be open to receiving advice from others. Please place people around me to remind me of your word an hold me accountable. In Jesus' name. Amen.

What if the real battle isn't around you—but within you? Strongholds form when destructive patterns of thinking take up residence in the mind, shaping reactions, emotions, and beliefs over time. This message walks through the process of breaking strongholds—how they develop, who is most vulnerable to them, and how to remove them through the power of truth. You'll learn how to stop letting past wounds and present feelings dictate your life and how to take every thought captive under the authority of Christ.

Our N.T. reading of Mark's gospel is the heart stirring 72 verses of his 14th chapter.  It records the ‘last supper' that Jesus shared with his disciples and its' age-lasting simplicity has had heart stirring meaning for his genuine disciples in every generation since that time.  After the supper there follows the heart searching time in the garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus prays, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.” [v.36]  The individuality of the Father and Son is so evident here, Jesus sets us an example that wherever Scriptural principles are involved we should follow our Saviour's example and say to our heavenly Father, ” not what I will, but what you will.”  These words make it plain that the ‘theology of the Trinity' which the Catholic's invented centuries later, has no place in the mind of the true believer.Judas now comes “and with him a crowd with swords and clubs'.[v.43]  Jesus does not resist, he says, “let the scriptures be fulfilled.”  And so they were, the Old Testament has several prophecies about this; these Scriptures  also make it plain, as we read yesterday, that there will be a final time of trouble for our world. The words Jesus spoke then have a particular application for us now, “Be on guard; I have told you all things beforehand.” [13 v.23]  Back in today's chapter we note what Jesus told the High Priest, and we see its awesome meaning for us as we live with increasing anticipation of this event.  He was warning the High Priest telling him, ” you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” [v.62]   The High Priest will be there, among the goats! What horror will fill his heart!   But what a wondrous prospect of joy their fulfilment hold for us. Our thoughts go to the words of Paul when he described this coming event to the Thessalonians in his 1st letter to them, ” the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.” [4 v.16,17]   And where will the Lord be?  Reigning from Jerusalem! The world will experience “a new earth in which righteousness dwells” as Peter puts it in his final epistle [3 v.13]  May the “scriptures be fulfilled” very soon – and may we have the strength of faith to endure the coming tribulation with a sure anticipation of the wonders to follow.

Maybe it's about removing what's blocking the real you from emerging. If you're a woman over 50 whose life looks “fine” on the outside yet inside, something feels unsettled, foggy, or unfinished, you'll want to… Source

The All Local 4pm Update for Tuesday, February 17th,2025

1,097 applications in three days for a single VP-level role. Today's hiring strategy is overwhelmed by volume, automation, and noise. AI-powered recruiting tools are filtering resumes while candidates use AI to optimize applications, creating a talent acquisition process that feels increasingly impersonal and inefficient. In this episode, Sean Barnes breaks down why the modern recruiting and interview process is broken and what executive leaders, HR professionals, and hiring managers must do to fix it. You'll learn practical hiring best practices for building high-performance teams, improving candidate experience, and strengthening your talent pipeline through trust, referrals, and strategic networking. If you are responsible for talent acquisition, executive hiring, or leadership recruitment, this episode offers a smarter framework for attracting top talent and reducing friction in your hiring process.   Key Moments 00:00 - 1,097 applications in three days: what that says about the hiring market 01:00 - AI on both sides: resume parsing vs AI-tailored applications 02:15 - Principle #1: Trust is king in hiring 04:00 - Principle #2: Everyone's network counts, not just HR 06:00 - Principle #3: Why you should reward employee referrals 08:00 - Principle #4: Remove friction from your hiring process 10:30 - Principle #5: Know when to stop interviewing 12:00 - Closing thoughts: building an experience that attracts top talent   Key Takeaways The volume of applications does not equal quality hiring. AI has made hiring more efficient but also more impersonal and noisy. Warm introductions dramatically increase trust and probability of fit. Every leader's network should serve the organization, not just themselves. Referral programs save time, money, and recruiting friction. Overly long interview processes repel high performers. After three to four strong interviews, additional rounds create diminishing returns. Respecting candidate time builds the foundation for long-term trust.   Host: Sean Barnes Website: https://www.wolfexecutives.com   https://www.seanbarnes.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanbarnes/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/wolfexecutives https://www.linkedin.com/company/thewayofthewolf/ LinkedIn Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7284600567593684993/ The Wolf Leadership Series: https://wolfexecutives.com/wolf-leadership-series/ YouTube: youtube.thewayofthewolf.com Twitter: https://x.com/seanbarnes https://x.com/wolfexecutives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_seanbarnes https://www.instagram.com/wolfexecutives https://www.instagram.com/the_wayofthewolf TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_seanbarnes Email: Sean@thewayofthewolf.com Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Way-of-the-Wolf-Podcast/B08JJNXJ6C Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2BTGdO25Vop3GTpGCY8Y8E?si=ea91c1ef6dd14f15    

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 5:6-8. Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. Let us therefore celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. — 1 Corinthians 5:6–8 Paul moves from confronting one man's sin to confronting the entire church's tolerance of it, and he does it with a picture everyone in Corinth understood: leaven. Leaven is quiet. Leaven is small. Leaven works invisibly. Yet once it's mixed in, it spreads through the whole batch of dough. It doesn't matter if it starts in a corner—it ends everywhere. That's Paul's point. Sin never stays personal. It always becomes communal. A private compromise eventually affects public integrity. A hidden lust eventually damages relationships. A tolerated sin eventually shapes a church's culture. Just like leaven, sin spreads beyond the person who commits it. That's exactly why Paul confronted Corinth so strongly in the previous passage. Discipline wasn't only about the man—it was about the whole church, because what one person hides, the whole body eventually breathes. This is why Paul commands them to "cleanse out the old leaven." He's pulling from Passover imagery. Every Jewish family searched their home by candlelight, removing every crumb of leaven so the new batch would remain pure. Even a pinch of the old dough could corrupt everything new. Paul is applying that same spiritual search to the church: Remove the old habits. Remove the excuses. Remove the tolerated sins. Remove the attitudes that spread like rot. If we want a healed church, we must remove what is poisoning both the individual and the body. This is not just about your life. This is about our life together. But Paul ends with a powerful statement: "As you really are unleavened…" In other words, you're already made new. So live like it. Your identity is clean. Your standing is pure. Your church has been washed. So stop kneading in old corruption. Stop letting sin expand. Stop pretending one compromise won't spread to others. Don't be leavened with evil—be unleavened with truth. This is Paul's call to you. This is Paul's call to your church. This is Paul's call to every fellowship that wants to remain spiritually healthy. Remove what spreads death. Keep what spreads life. DO THIS: Do a "Passover sweep" of both your personal life and your church involvement. Remove whatever small thing you've been tolerating before it grows and affects more than you realize. ASK THIS: Where have I underestimated the spread of a small sin? How might my compromise be shaping others around me? What leaven needs to be removed so my life—and my church—can stay healthy? PRAY THIS: Father, show me anything in my life that's quietly spreading and corrupting what You want to renew. Give me courage to remove it and help me strengthen the purity of my church as well. Make me unleavened with sincerity and truth. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Give Us Clean Hands"

This week's book is The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow, the story of three sisters in 1893: Juiper, Agnes and Beatrice who are hunted by forces who will not suffer a witch to vote, they must use their magic, their wits and alliances to find a way to survive. This led to such an interesting conversation about feminism, sisterhood, science, and lots of magic with this week's guest: Angie Hilliker!Angie Hilliker (Ph.D.) is an Associate Professor of Biology at the University of Richmond where she teaches undergraduates about the amazing molecular machines in our cells. She also has a research lab where she works with these budding scientists to understand how our cells regulate mRNA, the molecular recipes cells use to make proteins. She is always curious about something, whether it's something in the lab, in a book, exploring a hobby (including playing the flute and making pottery), or exploring something with her husband and son. When she isn't reading science papers for work, she likes to read fantasy, historical fiction and romance novels.In this Episode James River WritersUniversity of RichmondThe Sackler FamilyThe Poe Museum - RichmondAlly McBealThe Wayward Sisters:Herbal, floral, lightly sweet, and aromatic — like walking through a moonlit herb garden.
