In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe reflects on the spiritual intensity of Yom Kippur and its seamless connection to Sukkot, emphasizing themes of forgiveness, selflessness, and renewal. He highlights how these holidays inspire a fresh start through acts of unity and service to Hashem. Key points include:Yom Kippur's Holiness: Yom Kippur, known as Yom HaKadosh (the Holy Day), is a time when Hashem desires closeness with us through teshuvah (repentance). The Al Chet prayer combines sins done “be'ones” (by mistake) and “beratzon” (with desire), teaching that even intentional sins stem from momentary weakness due to the Yetzer Hara (evil inclination). The Tefillah Zaka prayer, recited before Kol Nidre, acknowledges this struggle, asking forgiveness for succumbing to temptations despite our deeper desire to align with Hashem's will.Divine Forgiveness: Citing Numbers 14:20 (“Vayomer Hashem salachti kidvarecha” – “I forgive you as you have requested”), Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that sincere requests for forgiveness are immediately granted by Hashem, unlike human forgiveness with preconditions. This assurance fosters joy, as seen in sages dancing post-Yom Kippur, feeling unburdened of sins.Sukkot's Role: Sukkot, beginning September 25, 2025, is not a “forgotten holiday” but a vital demonstration of Yom Kippur's renewal. Leaving one's home for the sukkah symbolizes breaking old habits and starting anew, embracing discomfort (e.g., Houston's heat or rain) to avoid complacency. The four species (lulav, etrog, hadas, arava) represent unity among diverse Jews, while the 70 offerings for the nations reflect the Jewish mission to model ethics and morality globally.Selflessness on Yom Kippur: Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal story of responding to a Hatzalah call at 1 AM on Yom Kippur, driving a patient to the hospital while his daughter babysat the patient's children until 9:30 AM with minimal sleep. This act, inspired by his grandfather's teaching in the Mir Yeshiva to visit the sick during Musaf, exemplifies Yom Kippur's mitzvah of selflessness over selfishness, reinforcing the holiday's essence.Livelihood and Service: Yom Kippur prayers frequently mention livelihood, as financial worry hinders serving Hashem fully. A secure livelihood frees one to focus on spiritual growth, aligning with Sukkot's call to trust in Hashem while living simply in the sukkah.The episode concludes with a blessing for a meaningful Sukkot, a year of health, happiness, and secure livelihood, urging listeners to carry Yom Kippur's selflessness into daily life.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on October 5, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on October 5, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

Because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.Temptation isn't a religious thing; it's a human thing. Every human being recognizes that there are things they are tempted by. But what's the solution? In Matthew 4:1-11, Jesus himself is tempted, yet he fully resists. In this sermon, we explore the fact that because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history. The Gospel of Matthew gives us a firsthand look at the life and teachings of Jesus. It stands as a “bridge” between the Old and New Testaments, grounding us in the rich story of Israel while revealing the in-breaking reality of the kingdom of heaven. Through this preaching series, we seek to help people encounter the gospel of the kingdom and embody it as flourishing disciples who live under the gracious rule of God.

Is renewal rate just another way of saying retention? Not exactly. In episode #316, Ben Murray breaks down the difference between renewal rate and the classic retention metrics—gross revenue retention (GRR), net revenue retention (NRR), and customer/logo retention. Ben explains why the renewal rate is the leading indicator of retention, especially when running annual or multi-year contracts, and why investors, private equity buyers, and your board will want to see this number alongside your standard SaaS metrics. If you're a SaaS or AI operator looking to better understand your unit economics and improve your company's valuation, this episode will help you put renewal rate into context as part of your financial metrics toolkit.

Do you ever feel unworthy of God's love? In this episode, Fr Columba explores how shame twists our image of ourselves and of God, making us believe lies about who we are.

Health care costs could rise sharply next year. A new analysis from KFF finds Affordable Care Act premiums could increase 114%, from $888 to nearly $1,900 a year, if Congress fails to renew enhanced subsidies by year's end. About 22 million Americans currently rely on those tax credits. Democrats are calling for immediate action with open enrollment beginning Nov. 1, while Republicans say they may revisit the issue later. Without a deal, millions could face sticker shock and even lose coverage.

God uses the wilderness to renew our strength and remind us of His presence.
Can fractured societies pull themselves back from the brink? Is America doomed to slide into another civil war? Or, are we already engaged in a kind of Cold Civil War? In this episode of Context, we examine three powerful case studies of recovery: England emerging from the Wars of the Roses in the 15th century West Germany rising from the rubble of 1945 America clawing its way out of the malaise of the 1970s Each story reveals how societies that seemed broken beyond repair found ways to discipline elites, renew their principles, and restore confidence in themselves and in the future. As America faces mounting political violence and cultural fatigue, these examples remind us that collapse is not destiny. Renewal has always required sacrifice, leadership, and moral courage, but history proves it is possible.

Ryan wrestles with a piercing question sparked by Charlie Kirk's testimony: Are we actually called to purity—or is purity the assumed condition of a life on mission for Christ? Drawing from Kirk's own words about victory over pornography and Psalm 97:10, Ryan reframes purity not as an end in itself but as the necessary overflow of loving Jesus and pursuing His calling with focus.Topics DiscussedPurity vs. purpose: which is the calling and which is the conditionLessons from Charlie Kirk's testimony and focusThe danger of letting the “fight for purity” become a lifelong distractionPractical safeguards (accountability, tech tools) in their proper placePsalm 97:10 and hating evil as an expression of loving GodMoving from abstinence-mindset to satisfaction in ChristSimultaneously growing in purity while stepping into God's missionKey TakeawaysPurity is not the destination; it's the runway for a Spirit-led life on mission.A life that can “comfortably accommodate” impurity is misaligned with calling.Tools and accountability help, but transformation flows from loving Christ first.Get on mission now; don't postpone obedience until you feel “fully pure.”As love for Christ increases, purity increases—because there's more of you reserved for Him.Resources & LinksCharlie Kirk's original interview: ListenCovenant Eyes — accountability software for purityReady to download the Cord App?

In his closing speech at the Labour Party Conference, Keir Starmer attacked Reform and Nigel Farage for pushing what he called the ‘politics of grievance'. The Prime Minister also said that Reform's plans to end Indefinite Leave to Remain were racist. We ask Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper if this approach could alienate Reform supporters. Also on the programme: the Taliban cuts off the internet, isolating millions of Afghan women; and as The Rocky Horror Picture Show celebrates its 50th anniversary we speak to the son of its creator on its enduring appeal.
It's speech day for the Prime Minister but will it do the job, and can he convince conference he is the man to fix Britain? Sam and Anne look ahead to Sir Keir Starmer's critical address and his argument of a choice between renewal or decline. The pair also reflect on the Chancellor's speech and her strongest indication yet that tax rises could be on the horizon for the November budget. And away from Liverpool, Donald Trump has announced a 20-point plan to end the war in Gaza – which includes the involvement of former Labour Prime Minister, Sir Tony Blair. The duo will also debrief the Starmer speech in an extra episode late on Tuesday afternoon.

In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Sana speaks with Clara Schroeder, ecotherapist, resilience trainer, and author of the upcoming book Re-Nature. Clara shares her journey of healing after a traumatic brain injury and how nature became her greatest teacher. Together, they explore how reconnecting with the natural world fosters emotional balance, builds resilience, and offers accessible practices—even for city dwellers with limited green space. From the power of visualization and sensory rituals to the importance of community climate conversations, this episode invites you to rediscover your place in the larger web of life. About the Guest : Clara Schroeder holds a master's degree in psychology from Columbia University and certifications in ecotherapy and resilience training. She has worked with leaders, first responders, and global communities at the intersection of mental health and climate well-being. Her upcoming book Re-Nature blends science, storytelling, and practical tools to help individuals and communities thrive by reconnecting with the earth. Key Takeaways : Resilience is not about force but about flow, regeneration, and adaptability—just like nature. Simple daily practices, such as noticing five things with your senses or creating a “good morning ritual,” reconnect us with nature even in urban settings. Guided visualization can shift our mood and regulate the nervous system, offering a sense of belonging to the natural world. Community support, including spaces like climate cafés, plays a crucial role in processing climate grief and building collective resilience. Reconnecting with nature is not a privilege reserved for those in the wilderness—small, mindful acts of awareness bring us closer to our environment and ourselves.

For 30 September 2025, The Memorial of St. Jerome, based on Ephesians 4:29-32
Pastor Ryan Deas preaches from 1 Corinthians 6:9–11, Revelation 21:8, Acts 2:36–39, Acts 17:22–31, Hebrews 2:1, and Romans 12:1–2, calling the church to repentance and renewal.

True salvation is not about coasting or hiding sin but about daily surrender, transformation, and living as a witness of Jesus Christ.

In previous eras, people fought and died for their views of baptism. But in our era, it's often seen as a religious ritual that has little practical significance. In Matthew 3, Jesus is baptized by John the Baptist, demonstrating that he has come to identify with sinful humanity. In this sermon, we explore the significance of Jesus' baptism and how, in Christian baptism, the Christian receives the gift of the Spirit, the intercession of the Son, and the loving voice of the Father.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history. The Gospel of Matthew gives us a firsthand look at the life and teachings of Jesus. It stands as a “bridge” between the Old and New Testaments, grounding us in the rich story of Israel while revealing the in-breaking reality of the kingdom of heaven. Through this preaching series, we seek to help people encounter the gospel of the kingdom and embody it as flourishing disciples who live under the gracious rule of God.
How do we prepare for something like our upcoming Renew Conference? We'll discover a few biblical principles to guide us.

Hi everyone! In today's segment, we cover the main transits of October... which I'm REALLY looking forward to.October's astrology offers a profound recalibration. Conversations may create tension as Mercury and Mars in Libra heighten our desire for justice and clarity, but this energy also encourages listening, questioning, and finding common ground. Venus conjoining Ketu to the degree pulls us into memories and karma of the past. The Pisces Full Moon asks us to release illusions, finalize chapters, and trust spiritual guidance amid uncertainty. Pluto going direct and Jupiter in Cancer may amplify collective restructuring, pushing us to face truths while seeking safety, home, and inner stability. The New Moon in Libra marks a turning point of rebuilding and balance, and with Mars entering Scorpio, the month closes with intensity, empowerment, and the courage to move forward.Transits: October 2 - October 24 Mercury in Libra October 4 Venus and Ketu at 24 degrees of LeoOctober 6 Full moon at 19 degrees of Pisces RevatiOctober 9 - November 2 Venus in Virgo October 13 Pluto Direct at 7 degrees of Capricorn October 17 - Nov 16 Sun in Libra October 18th - December 5th Jupiter in Cancer October 21 New Moon in Libra at 4 degrees ChitraOctober 27th - December 7th Mars in Scorpio YOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras, spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse
Jeannette discusses the "seasons of entrepreneurship," drawing a parallel between the natural cycles of nature and the business world. She shares a personal story of burnout and exhaustion after a big project, which led her to the realisation that constant hustle is not a sustainable path to success. Instead, she advocates for recognising and embracing different seasons—growth (spring/summer) and rest/renewal (autumn/winter)—as essential for long-term health and growth You'll hear why: Ignoring the need for rest can lead to burnout, creative blocks, and stalled growth, much like a marathon runner who doesn't recover A sense of feeling drained, a lack of motivation, creative inspiration drying up, and a feeling of just "going through the motions" are all subtle indicators that you may be in a season of renewal To lean into a renewal season, you can schedule intentional breaks, delegate tasks that drain your energy, use the time for learning and planning without pressure to perform Sustainable success is not a straight line but a cycle of growth and rest. By embracing these seasons, entrepreneurs can avoid burnout, stay motivated, and build stronger, more resilient businesses.

In this episode, guest host Ben Whedon explores the significant transformations in Washington, D.C. following President Trump's federalization of the police force and the arrival of the National Guard with John Lott from the Crime Prevention Research Center as they discuss the dramatic decline in crime rates, the implications of recent legislative changes, and the ongoing challenges in maintaining safety in urban areas. Later, Ben welcomes Will Tanner, co-founder of the American Tribune, to discuss the alarming state of crime in America and its parallels to historical regimes like those in South Africa and Rhodesia. Tanner shares insights on the concept of 'anarcho tyranny,' examining how law-abiding citizens are increasingly marginalized while criminal elements operate with impunity. We delve into the implications of these dynamics on urban life, the political landscape, and the potential for change in America's cities.
