How do our questions impact our ability to make disciples, develop leaders and plant new churches? That's the topic of today's show! Welcome to Run With Horses! My name is Norman and my goal is to help you thrive as a follower of Jesus. The spiritual life is simple in many ways, but potentially the most difficult part of your life. God invites you to grow, to live intentionally and to join in His mission. It's very cool that we can do that together! Thank you for joining me today! “If you're new here, you can check out past episodes at runwithhorses.net.

Why Questions Matter **  Questions expose vision (or the lack of it) Show how “addition” questions limit scope vs. “multiplication” questions which expand possibilities.  Example: “How many people can I gather?” (Level 2 thinking) vs. “How many disciple-makers can I release?” (Level 4-5 thinking). .The Five Levels of Church Mutiplication 1.subtraction 2. Plateau 3.addition 4. Reproducing 5. Multiplication . *** 2. The Five Levels of Leadership (from Hero Maker) ***  • Level 1: I count (thinking addition, personal results).  • Level 2: I count what I do (improving programs).  • Level 3: I count what we do together (team success).  • Level 4: I count leaders I raise up (reproduction).  • Level 5: I count leaders who multiply leaders (movement/multiplication).  • Use examples of how each level asks progressively bigger questions. *** 3. Biblical and Theological Foundation *** .  • Jesus modeled multiplication: He invested in 12 → sent 72 → great commission to all.  • Paul's instruction to Timothy: “Entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others” (2 Tim. 2:2).  • The kingdom grows like a seed — designed for multiplication, not maintenance (parable of the mustard seed, yeast in the dough). *** 4. Why Maintenance Mindset is Dangerous ***  • It keeps leaders in survival mode (protecting what is).  • It makes ministries inward-focused rather than kingdom-focused.  • Ultimately, it limits generational impact. ***  5. Challenge: ***  • What questions are you currently asking in your ministry?  • Are they addition questions or multiplication questions?  • (Good interactive moment: invite participants to write down their top 2 questions they ask about ministry and assess what “level” they reflect.) ⸻ **(00:00) END PART 1** **(27:00 – 5:00) BEGIN PART 2* Part 2: Asking Multiplication Questions  Leaders at every level can shift from addition to multiplication by the questions they ask. *** 1. Shifting the Question at Every Level of Leadership*** .  • Sunday school teacher: Instead of “How many kids will show up?” ask “How many kids can I equip to share their faith?”  • Deacon/volunteer leader: Instead of “How do I fill this need?” ask “Who can I invite and empower to step into leadership?”  • Pastor: Instead of “How do we grow this church?” ask “How do we plant churches and send leaders?”  • Church planter: Instead of “How do I build this church strong?” ask “How do I build this to multiply from the start?” *** 2. Practical Multiplication Questions to Introduce***  • Who am I discipling right now?  • Who could they disciple next?  • What leaders am I raising up?  • Who in my ministry could replace me if I left tomorrow?  • What's stopping me from giving more away? *** 3. Tools & Practices to Reinforce Multiplication Thinking***  • Permission-giving: Start saying “You can do this” more often.  • Scorecards: Redefine success — not just how many are attending, but how many are multiplying.  • Apprenticing model: Always have someone learning beside you. *** 4. Case Studies / Stories***  • Share short stories of multiplication in action (a teacher who trained kids to lead, a church that planted another church, a small group that reproduced).  • Highlight that multiplication is possible at every level, not just at the top. *** 5. Closing Challenge & Vision Casting***  • Ask participants: “If every leader here multiplied themselves once in the next 2 years, what would happen in our church and community?”  • Cast vision for generational leadership: thinking in terms of “spiritual grandchildren.”  • Call them to choose one multiplication question they'll start asking this week. *** 6. Sample Multiplication vs. Maintenance Questions*** Sunday School Teachers  • Maintenance: How many kids will show up this week?  • Multiplication: Which kids can I disciple so they can share their faith with others?  • Multiplication: Who could I apprentice as a future teacher? ⸻ Deacons  • Maintenance: How do we meet the needs of our members better?  • Multiplication: Who else can we raise up to serve so more people are empowered?  • Multiplication: How do we multiply servant leaders, not just serve needs? ⸻ Sound Booth / Tech Team  • Maintenance: How do I make sure the sound and slides run smoothly this Sunday?  • Multiplication: Who can I train so they can run sound in the future?  • Multiplication: How do we multiply tech leaders so new services, campuses, or ministries can launch equipped? ⸻ Worship Leaders  • Maintenance: How do we sound better this Sunday?  • Multiplication: Who in the band or congregation can I mentor to lead worship in the future?  • Multiplication: How do we multiply worship leaders so that every group, gathering, or church plant has someone to lead? ⸻ Pastors  • Maintenance: How do we grow this church bigger?  • Multiplication: How do we raise up pastors and church planters from within?  • Multiplication: Who are my “Timothys” that I'm intentionally training to multiply leaders? ⸻ Church Planters  • Maintenance: How do I make this church strong and healthy?  • Multiplication: How do I plant in such a way that this church will plant another church within 3 years?  • Multiplication: How do I build a culture of sending from the very beginning? ⸻ General “Every Leader” Questions  • Maintenance: How do I succeed in my role?  • Multiplication: Who am I apprenticing to take my place?  • Multiplication: Who are my spiritual grandchildren — the people being discipled by those I discipled? ⸻ ***  7. Progression of Questions: From Addition to Multiplication*** Level 1: I Count (self-focused)  • How am I doing?  • Did I do a good job teaching / leading / serving?  • Did people like what I did today? (Example: A sound booth worker asks, “Did I get the slides right?”) ⸻ Level 2: I Count What I Do (program-focused)  • How many people showed up to my class, service, or ministry?  • How can I make this better for those who attend?  • Did the event/service/program run smoothly? (Example: A Sunday school teacher asks, “How many kids are in my class this week?”) ⸻ Level 3: I Count What We Do Together (team-focused)  • How is our team doing?  • How can we grow this ministry bigger or better together?  • How can we serve more people as a team? (Example: A deacon asks, “How can our deacon team meet more needs this year?”) ⸻ Level 4: I Count Leaders I Raise Up (reproduction-focused)  • Who am I apprenticing right now?  • Who could I trust to lead if I wasn't here?  • How can I release more people into ministry and leadership? (Example: A worship leader asks, “Who in the band can I mentor to lead a worship set?”) ⸻ Level 5: I Count Leaders Who Multiply Leaders (movement-focused)  • Who are my spiritual grandchildren — the leaders raised up by the leaders I've discipled?  • How do we create a culture where leaders naturally multiply leaders?  • How can we measure success by kingdom expansion, not just local growth? (Example: A pastor asks, “Who are the church planters being trained by the leaders I've already raised up?”) ⸻ ✅ Progression Summary (for a slide or handout):  • Level 1–2 questions: focus on me and my ministry.  • Level 3 questions: focus on our ministry team.  • Level 4 questions: focus on leaders I raise.  • Level 5 questions: focus on leaders who raise leaders.   **(1:00)**  What kinds of questions are you asking? Do your answers move you toward reproduction and multiplication or do they keep you stuck in the status quo? I know what kind of questions I want to be asking! – “Thank you for listening today!  -If you enjoyed the show you can listen to all the past shows wherever you listen to podcasts.

Recreating the natural hearing experience has long challenged researchers who study auditory perception. Recently, ambisonic panning has been developed as a method to accurately reproduce soundscapes. In this episode, we talk with Nima Zargarnezhad and Ingrid Johnsrude (Western University) about their research testing the accuracy of the "AudioDome," a device that using ambisonic panning to simulate soundscapes in the lab.Associated paper:- Nima Zargarnezhad, Bruno Mesquita, Ewan A Macpherson. and Ingrid Johnsrude.

Paul Harvey - Ribs Reproducing 

A key ingredient in a healthy church is respect, therefore a disciple-making culture should be one that is full of ever increasing respect. Wade teaches how to live worthy of respect, how to believe you are worthy of respect, and to require/teach others how to respect you.

NEW SERIES!! Today we launch a brand new series on the podcast featuring Josh Howard and Jason Ishmael.  "Today's episode will help us understand what it means to live as disciples worth reproducing by prioritizing a life transformed by Jesus and fully surrendered to His mission." Becoming Disciples Worth Reproducing | The Disciple Makers Podcast In this episode of The Disciple Makers Podcast, Josh Howard and Jason Ishmael dive into what it means to be a disciple worth reproducing. They share personal stories and insights on the significance of truly living out discipleship by prioritizing Jesus in all aspects of life. From addressing common misconceptions about ministry to discussing the importance of a deep, personal relationship with Christ, this episode is packed with thought-provoking discussions and practical advice to help listeners fully surrender to Jesus's heart, mission, and kingdom. Tune in to explore how you can start your journey to becoming a disciple who makes disciples.

Josh humorously contrasts his ministry work with Jason's role as a megachurch pastor, blending humor with humility as they transition into the heart of the discussion: being disciples who model a life others can follow. Josh highlights a pivotal question that shaped his journey: “Are we disciples worth reproducing?” He explains how this question challenged him during his time in India and emphasizes the importance of living a life that's worth replicating to spark true disciple-making movements. Jason reflects on Matthew 28, pointing out how the call to make disciples goes beyond personal salvation to living out Jesus' commands daily. He warns against reducing discipleship to intellectual belief and stresses the need for a life fully surrendered to Christ. The conversation also explores the role of guilt in discipleship. Jason notes that guilt may motivate in the short term, but only a deep love for Jesus sustains true obedience. Drawing from the Gospel of Mark, he explains that Jesus' worthiness is what compels people to follow Him, forming the foundation of authentic discipleship. Josh shares a vivid spiritual dream from 2017, where he saw Jesus and the Holy Spirit dancing in a harvest field, inviting him to join them. This powerful image captures the joy of participating in God's mission and highlights the relational, invitational nature of Jesus' call. Throughout the episode, both hosts stress the importance of living a life of overflow—being filled with the Spirit and letting that flow into every aspect of life, not just on Sundays. Jason compares this to being a funnel rather than a bucket: a funnel channels what it receives, symbolizing a life fully engaged with Jesus and His work. Josh recounts his early experiences in India, admitting his understanding of discipleship was initially shallow. He underscores that true discipleship starts with personal transformation through Christ, leading others into that same journey—not just delivering sermons. They also reflect on how God uses imperfect people for extraordinary purposes, emphasizing that it's not about being flawless but about being obedient and dependent on Jesus. Finally, the hosts invite listeners to reach out for resources and support as they grow as disciples who make disciples, promising encouragement and inspiration in future episodes. #Discipleship #Jesus #Faith #Surrender #Obedience #Christianity #Transformation Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/  Check out the following eBooks from Discipleship.org: -- What Is Church?

Global Partners, Brian and Jody Williams, recently transitioned back to the States after serving in Cambodia for 13 years. While in Cambodia, the Williams' partnered with locals to open an international preschool which, as you'll hear, God has used in incredible ways to advance His Kingdom. Even though they no longer live in Cambodia full-time, Brian and Jody are still quite active in the ministry that's taking place there, and they even have a vision for how they can extend that ministry to other parts of the world.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: It's time for a self-reproducing machine, published by Carl Feynman on August 8, 2024 on LessWrong. I've wanted to build a self-reproducing machine since I was 17. It's forty-five years later, and it has finally become feasible. (I've done a few other things along the way.) I'm going to describe one such device, and speculate as to its larger implications. It's a pretty detailed design, which I had to come up with to convince myself that it is feasible. No doubt there are better designs than this. The Autofac Here's a top-level description of the device I'm thinking of. It's called an Autofac, which is what they were called in the earliest story about them. It looks like a little metal shed, about a meter cubed. It weighs about 50 kilograms. There's a little gnome-sized door on each end. It's full of robot arms and automated machine tools. It's connected to electricity and by WiFi to a data center somewhere. It has a front door, where it accepts material, and a back door, where it outputs useful objects, and cans of neatly packaged waste. You can communicate with it, to tell it to make parts and assemble them into useful shapes. It can do all the metalworking operations available to a machinist with a good shop at their disposal. In return, it occasionally asks for help or clarification. One particular thing it can be told to make is another one of itself. This is of course the case we're all interested in. Here's what that looks like. You feed a 60kg package of steel castings, electronics, and other parts, into the door at one end. It starts by building another shed, next to the other end. The two sheds are butted up next to each other, so the rain can't get in. Once it's enclosed, there is no visible progress for about a month, but it makes various metalworking noises. Then it announces that it's done. The second shed is now another Autofac, and can be carried away to start the process elsewhere. There's also a can full of metal scrap and used lubricant, which has to be disposed of responsibly. This process can be repeated a number of times, at least seven, to produce more offspring. Eventually the original Autofac wears out, but by then it has hundreds of descendants. The software The key part of the Autofac, the part that kept it from being built before, is the AI that runs it. Present-day VLMs (vision-language models) are capable of performing short-deadline manual tasks like folding laundry or simple tool use. But they are deficient at arithmetic, long term planning and precisely controlling operations. Fortunately we already have software for these three purposes. First, of course, we have calculators for doing arithmetic. LLMs can be taught to use these. In the real world, machinists constantly use calculators. The Autofac will be no different. Second, there is project planning software that lets a human break down an engineering project into tasks and subtasks, and accommodate changes of plan as things go wrong. We can provide the data structures of this software, initially constructed by humans, as a resource for the AI to use. The AI only has to choose the next task, accomplish it or fail, and either remove it from the queue or add a new task to fix the problem. There are thousands of tasks in the life of an Autofac; fortunately the AI doesn't need to remember them all. The project planning software keeps track of what has been done and what needs to be done. Third, there are programs that go from the design of a part to a sequence of machine tool movements that will make that part, and then controls the machine tool motors to do the job. These are called Computer Aided Manufacturing, or CAM. Using CAM relieves the AI of the lowest level responsibilities of controlling motor positions and monitoring position sensors. This software doesn't do everything, of...

In this episode, I discuss the weirdness of Republicans' obsession with having children and denigration of people who don't for whatever reason, as crystalized in the selection of JD Vance to be Trump's running mate. Views my own.

On todays podcast we interview the Drakes. They share their amazing God story on how He has blessed them both with biological children and then an adopted son. The story is inspiring and provides us with a message of God's calling, dealing with rejection, God's provision, and then the realities of life and keeping their marriage strong. Join us on this first of a two part story.

Selling French Sex: Prostitution, Trafficking, and Global Migrations (Cambridge UP, 2024) is an illuminating account of the cultural, social, and economic history of the sale of 'French sex'. It explores the discourses and experiences surrounding the early twentieth century debate on sex trafficking, which mobilized various international reform movements to combat the coerced prostitution of young women abroad. According to popular legend and empirical studies, French women were present in brothels all over the world, where they were the most desired and best paid in the business. But were they trafficking victims or willing migrants? In this timely book, Elisa Camiscioli reconstructs the networks and mechanisms of cross-border migrations for sexual labor; elucidates women's motives for leaving and staying; and explains why French migrant sexual labor occupied such a prominent place in the underworld of prostitution, as well as in the imaginaries of anti-trafficking campaigners, immigration officials, and ordinary consumers of vice. Elisa Camiscioli is a professor of history at Binghamton University. She specializes in immigration to and from France, sex trafficking, and race and sexual politics in modern France and its empire. She completed a B.A., cum laude, at University of Pennsylvania and earned a M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. In addition to a number of peer-reviewed articles, she is the author of Reproducing the French Race: Immigration, Intimacy, and Embodiment in the Early Twentieth Century (Duke University Press. 2009). Dr. Camiscioli was co-editor of the Journal of Women's History from 2015 to 2020. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: AI #61: Meta Trouble, published by Zvi on May 5, 2024 on LessWrong. Note by habryka: This post failed to import automatically from RSS for some reason, so it's a week late. Sorry for the hassle. The week's big news was supposed to be Meta's release of two versions of Llama-3. Everyone was impressed. These were definitely strong models. Investors felt differently. After earnings yesterday showed strong revenues but that Meta was investing heavily in AI, they took Meta stock down 15%. DeepMind and Anthropic also shipped, but in their cases it was multiple papers on AI alignment and threat mitigation. They get their own sections. We also did identify someone who wants to do what people claim the worried want to do, who is indeed reasonably identified as a 'doomer.' Because the universe has a sense of humor, that person's name is Tucker Carlson. Also we have a robot dog with a flamethrower.

Language Models Offer Mundane Utility I too love XML for this and realize I keep forgetting to use it. Even among humans, every time I see or use it I think 'this is great, this is exceptionally clear.' Hamel Husain: At first when I saw xml for Claude I was like "WTF Why XML". Now I LOVE xml so much, can't prompt without it. Never going back. Example from the docs: User: Hey Claude. Here is an email: {{EMAIL}}. Make this email more {{ADJECTIVE}}. Write the new version in XML tags. Assistant: Also notice the "prefill" for the answer (a nice thing to use w/xml) Imbure's CEO suggests that agents are not 'empowering' to individuals or 'democratizing' unless the individuals can code their own agent. The problem is of course that almost everyone wants to do zero setup work let alone writing of code. People do not even want to toggle a handful of settings and you want them creating their own agents? And of course, when we say 'set up your own agent' what we actually mean is 'type into a chat box what you want and someone else's agent creates your agent.' Not only is this not empowering to individuals, it seems like a good way to start disempowering humanity in general. Claude can hypnotize a willing user. [EDIT: It has been pointed out to me that I misinterpreted this, and Janus was not actually hypnotized. I apologize for the error. I do still strongly believe that Claude could do it to a willing user, but we no longer have the example.] The variable names it chose are… somethi...

Past episodes and the video version of The Wisdom Journey are free and on demand here: https://wfth.me/journey  The Christian life is a growing relationship with the living Lord. As that relationship flourishes, it will naturally produce a Spirit-controlled life that mirrors the character and conduct of Jesus Christ.

Reproducing ministry is more than just finding people who are willing to do the work, it also requires a standard to which those working can be held. Not because they are better than those to whom they minister, but because to represent Christ in his ministry is to act like Christ would act.

How to be efficient in e-commerce logistics Failure can be a painful experience; it's crucial to embrace it as a valuable learning experience and use those lessons to become a better entrepreneur. Venture capitalists often appreciate entrepreneurs who have experienced failure because it shows their ability to adapt and improve their strategies. Ultimately, the ability to learn from failure separates successful entrepreneurs from the rest. Airhouse CEO and Co-Founder Kevin Gibbon started in tech, developing software for significant aerospace players like Boeing and Raytheon. After a few years, he set out to carve his own path, building Shyp, attracting $62.1M in funding, and landing on Fast Company's 50 Most Innovative Companies list. Unfortunately, Shyp was a bright star that ultimately burned out. Still, Kevin walked away from the experience equipped with priceless insight. At Airhouse, he's applying that insight to revolutionize how DTC e-commerce brands scale logistics. Key Takeaways: Venture capitalists are looking for outliers and want to see asymmetric outcomes Learning from failure and taking the lessons learned to improve on them can increase the chances of success in future ventures Product-market fit is crucial, and it's essential to make sure you have it before hiring senior executives Feedback cycles can be long, but patience is necessary for product market fit. Reproducing product-market fit requires understanding customer needs and iterating on the product Keep the team small and raise as little venture capital as possible until you have a product-market fit Avoid hiring senior executives who are risk-averse All this and more, on this week's episode of Beyond 7 Figures. Stay tuned next week when we talk about revolutionizing productivity with Jere Simpson. So, don't forget to subscribe to the show to get that episode as soon it gets released.
