Podcasts about Resolve

What does it mean to live an unshakable life in a culture that pulls you in a different direction? In this message from Daniel 1, we explore the power of resolve — the decision to remain faithful to God, even when everything around us pressures us to conform. Daniel and his friends faced three major challenges: • A new education shaped by Babylonian culture • New names designed to redefine their identity • Royal food that conflicted with their convictions Yet Daniel resolved not to defile himself. His quiet, courageous obedience led to God's favour and blessing. We reflect on what it means for us today: Daniel resolved — intentional faithfulness matters. God blessed Daniel's action — obedience invites transformation (Romans 12:1–2). What about broken resolutions? — grace meets us when we fall. Remember, we are exiles — called to live distinct lives that glorify God (1 Peter 2:11–12). In a world that constantly seeks to reshape our identity, this message challenges us to anchor ourselves in who God says we are and to live with courage, conviction, and hope.

Send a textWhat if the behavior that broke your heart was actually the brain asking for help?In this episode Rayna sat down with author and advocate Lori Jones to explore the hidden contours of Huntington's disease, where genetics, uncertainty, and everyday caregiving collide and uncover the small, human choices that change everything.Lori grew up in an HD family, later becoming a legal guardian for her father through care homes, hospital handoffs, and hospice. She opens up about the emotional math of pre-symptomatic testing, the weight of a 50% genetic risk, and why learning about CAG repeats and symptom variability can bring clarity without stealing hope. We also trace powerful parallels with Alzheimer's: early psychiatric shifts that go unnoticed, late diagnoses that miss the window for treatment, and the hard truth that behavior often reflects brain change, not character.The heart of this conversation lives in the stories. A care home director who said we get creative and meant it. A third-shift art student sketching while Lori's dad savored ice cream, reconnecting with the artist he once was. A retired neurology chair arriving with a paper bag of fries, earning trust one salty bite at a time and clearing a path for much-needed meds. These aren't grand gestures; they're precise mercies that honor personhood and make care sustainable.Lori also names the quiet undertow of relief: survivor's guilt after testing gene negative. Her way through was service- organizing Team Hope fundraisers, writing Spared: A Memoir of Risk and Resolve, and speaking anywhere to help caregivers find language and community. If you've ever felt isolated, triggered, or unsure how to de-escalate fear-driven moments, you'll leave with practical tools, compassionate reframes, and a reminder that you're not supposed to carry this alone.Listen now, share this with someone who needs it, and tell us: what small act made a big difference in your caregiving? If this conversation helped, subscribe, leave a review, and pass it on so more caregivers can find hope and practical support.

If you've been telling yourself you're unmotivated or burnt out or lazy or somehow broken, I want you to pause for a second. Because there's a good chance that none of that is true. There's a good chance you're not lacking drive. You're avoiding grief. The Grief Creative Entrepreneurs Don't Name Before you check out, this isn't about tragedy or loss in the obvious sense. This is about the kind of grief that creative entrepreneurs rarely name. It's grief for expectations that didn't pan out. The grief of versions of yourself you thought you'd be by now. The grief of timelines that expired. Most people don't talk about this because it feels dramatic. But it's not dramatic. It's subtle and it's quiet, and it shows up as I just can't get myself to do the thing. What Grief Actually Looks Like Creative entrepreneurs are really good at mislabeling this. We call it burnout or lack of motivation or discipline. But what's actually happening is something inside of you is unfinished. And for people like us, that's hard to deal with. It's not a task. It's a feeling. Grief doesn't always look like crying. Sometimes it looks like: Doom scrolling Procrastinating Getting yourself ready to do the thing, and then just sitting there Rearranging your workspace for the fifth time instead of starting Productivity with no direction You're doing things. You're just not doing that thing. The one that matters. The one that could move you forward. Because moving forward would mean acknowledging what didn't happen, and that's the part we avoid. Why We Skip Grief (And What Happens When We Do) We're taught to stay positive, right? How many times have you been told that? Just stay positive. Reframe. Pivot. Look for the lesson. And yes, okay, that's useful eventually. But grief doesn't like being bypassed. If you skip it, it doesn't just disappear. It shows up as fatigue or lack of desire that you can't really explain. And you might tell yourself, I should be more grateful. Other people have it worse. And that could be true. But gratitude doesn't cancel grief. They can coexist. You can be grateful for what you have and still mourn what you lost or what you never got. A lot of creative entrepreneurs are carrying grief for things that never had a funeral. What You Might Be Grieving The career that didn't take off the way you imagined. When I was a child, I knew with my whole heart I was going to be doing Shakespeare in the park. That didn't turn out for me. Maybe it will someday, but that's something I've had to grieve. A version of yourself that you believed would be easier to have by now. No one really tells you how to grieve those things, so you don't. You just kind of push harder, or you stop pushing altogether, and then you judge yourself for it. Here's something important: Motivation is an output. It is not a moral quality. It tends to disappear when you're carrying unresolved emotional weight. Grief is heavy. And when you start to notice it, you realize your body isn't resisting the work. It's protecting you from feeling something that you haven't given yourself permission to feel. Grief Doesn't Resolve with Time, It Resolves with Attention Avoiding grief looks like waiting for clarity or inspiration or to feel like yourself. But grief doesn't resolve on its own with time. It resolves with attention. I'm not saying you need to fall apart or wallow or stop working and take a break. I'm just saying you might need to acknowledge what you've been pretending didn't matter. Because I say that to myself all the time when something doesn't pan out for me. I'm like, oh, well it didn't matter. It did matter. Ask yourself this, very gently: What version of my life am I quietly disappointed didn't happen? What did I believe would be true by now that isn't? What am I still trying to outrun by staying busy, or by doing nothing? These questions aren't meant to derail you. They're meant to unstick you. Because grief that goes unnamed will keep hijacking your energy. Grief Isn't the Opposite of Ambition This is the part most people miss. Grief isn't the opposite of ambition. It's often the doorway back to it. Because once you stop pretending you're fine with something you're not fine with, your energy starts to return. As this steady willingness to engage again. You don't have to fix the grief. You just have to stop avoiding it. Sometimes that looks like saying out loud: I thought I'd be further along by now. Sometimes it looks like letting yourself feel sad without immediately turning it into a lesson. Sometimes it looks like saying: This didn't go the way that I hoped. And that honesty doesn't weaken you. It frees up space. And from that space, guess what comes back? Motivation. Not forced or frantic, but grounded. What Happens After You Acknowledge Grief Things don't suddenly feel amazing. But they do feel clearer. And clarity can feel uncomfortable. Because grief, when you acknowledge it, has a way of reorganizing things. You might realize you don't want what you used to want anymore. You might notice certain goals feel hollow now. That chapter is really done. That can be destabilizing, especially for creative entrepreneurs, because so much of our identity is wrapped up in our projects. We're so used to asking, What's next? What's the plan? What am I building toward? And grief doesn't answer those questions. It asks a different one: What matters now? And sometimes that answer is smaller than you expected. Sometimes it's rest, or simplifying, or choosing depth over growth. The Fear of Slowing Down This is where people start to panic. An actor actually said this to me a couple days ago: If I slow down, I'll lose everything. If I stop pushing, I will fall behind. I can't let myself feel this because I won't come back from it. But avoiding grief doesn't keep you in motion. It keeps you stuck in cycles. Push, crash, recover, repeat. Push, crash, recover, repeat. Acknowledging grief is often what interrupts that loop. Grief Recalibrates Your Tolerance Grief inconveniently recalibrates your tolerance for bullshit. Things you used to tolerate now suddenly feel unbearable. Projects that once felt exciting now feel draining. Obligations you said yes to out of fear start to feel misaligned. This isn't you becoming difficult. It's you becoming honest with yourself. And honesty has consequences. You might disappoint people. You might change your mind. You might need to renegotiate your relationships. That's part of it. Grow up. Grief strips away the versions of ourselves that we've built to survive, not necessarily to thrive. And yeah, that can feel scary because survival strategies are familiar, even when they're exhausting. The Reframe That Matters You're shedding urgency that no longer makes sense. You're letting goals go that were fueled by pressure instead of your actual desire. That space is more sustainable for you because that's where you can really grow. Not in panic. Rooted in choice. Grief clears the noise so you can hear that steady place again. What to Do Next Don't ask what's wrong with you. Nothing's wrong with you. Ask yourself: What am I asking myself to ignore? What disappointments haven't I named? What ending haven't I acknowledged? What hope am I still holding onto that might need to be released? This isn't about giving up. It's about letting go of what's already gone so you can show up fully to what is here now. Sometimes you're going to feel fine. Sometimes it's going to hit you sideways in the middle of a workday. Sometimes it's just going to make you tired. All of that is normal. What matters is that you stop treating those moments like obstacles to productivity. They're information. Your system saying, Hey, pay attention to this. And if you let yourself listen, even just for a second, you might find that motivation starts to come back in small ways. This willingness to engage again. This okay, yeah, I can do the next thing. And the next thing.

Canadians live in an era defined by unprecedented access to information – and equally unprecedented vulnerability to misinformation. False narratives can take root and spread at the speed of lightning and no sector is feeling the impact more severely than health care.Misinformation impacts not only individual Canadians driven to find online health solutions but increasingly impacts the government's ability to trust in health policy data provided by our allies.How vulnerable are Canadians to an information system driven by American big tech, opaque AI-driven search and algorithms and state-sponsored health disinformation of the Trump era? How does this impact the trust in our health care system?On February 10, 2026, the Empire Club of Canada, in partnership with the Canadian Medical Association, presented Diagnosing and Combatting Health Misinformation: 2026 CMA Health & Media Tracking Survey Launch  to answer these questions and provide solutions.The event began with a special presentation by David Coletto, CEO, Abacus Data on exclusive 2026 CMA Health & Media Tracking Survey data followed by Dr. Tom Frieden, former director of the CDC and founder and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, a global health organization that accelerates action against the world's deadliest health threats.Join us to explore solutions on how to protect the health of Canadians and its own information environment from bad actors. Our expert panel moderated by Vassy Kapelos features Dr. Jen Gunter, Vass Bednar and David Skok.

Les Canadiens et Canadiennes vivent dans un monde où l'information est plus accessible que jamais. L'envers de la médaille, c'est que la population n'a jamais été aussi vulnérable à la mésinformation. En effet, les idées fausses se propagent à la vitesse de l'éclair, et le domaine des soins de santé est celui où les répercussions sont les plus importantes.La mésinformation ne touche pas seulement les personnes qui cherchent des solutions à leurs problèmes de santé en ligne : elle entrave également la capacité du gouvernement à se fier aux données fournies par nos alliés en matière de politiques sanitaires.À quel point la population canadienne est-elle vulnérable face aux géants technologiques américains qui dominent le système d'information, à l'opacité des modèles de recherche et des algorithmes des outils d'IA, ainsi qu'à la désinformation en matière de santé financée par l'État à l'ère de l'administration Trump? Comment la confiance envers notre système de santé s'en trouve-t-elle altérée?Le 10 février 2026, l'Empire Club of Canada, en partenariat avec l'Association médicale canadienne, présentera l'événement Reconnaître et combattre la mésinformation en matière de santé : lancement de l'étude de suivi annuelle de l'AMC sur la santé et les médias 2026, dont le but est de fournir des réponses à ces questions et de proposer des solutions.L'événement débutera par une présentation spéciale de David Coletto, chef de la direction d'Abacus Data, qui communiquera des données exclusives sur l'étude de suivi annuelle sur la santé et les médias 2026 de l'AMC. Cette présentation sera suivie par celle du Dr Tom Frieden, ancien directeur des CDC et fondateur et chef de la direction de Resolve to Save Lives, une organisation de santé mondiale engagée dans la lutte contre les menaces sanitaires les plus mortelles au monde.Venez découvrir des solutions pour protéger la santé des Canadiens et des Canadiennes, ainsi que leur environnement informationnel, contre les personnes mal intentionnées. Notre table ronde, animée par Vassy Kapelos, réunira la Dre Jen Gunter, Vass Bednar et David Skok.

Read Online“Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave from there. Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them.” So they went off and preached repentance. The Twelve drove out many demons, and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them. Mark 6:10–13During the first half of Jesus' public ministry, despite the religious leaders growing increasingly hostile, He accomplished many things. Numerous conversions took place, many began to believe He was the Messiah, miracles abounded, and His fame spread far and wide. During this time, Jesus gave special attention to twelve of His disciples, setting them apart and designating them as Apostles. Honored by Jesus' special attention, perhaps these twelve men struggled with pride, thinking they were above the rest of the disciples.In today's Gospel, “Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits” (Mark 6:7). This divine authority was something new to them, a gift beyond anything they had ever known. For that reason, Jesus exhorted them to rely on Divine Providence for their mission, exercising it with humility and simplicity: “He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick—no food, no sack, no money in their belts […] He said to them, ‘Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave from there'” (Mark 6:8, 10).This was a pivotal moment for the Twelve. During the first half of Jesus' public ministry, the Twelve were our Lord's students: listening to Him, accompanying Him, praying with Him, and learning about the Kingdom of God. Suddenly, the time came for them to act in Jesus' name and with His authority. As they went forth, two by two, preaching repentance in the surrounding towns and villages, something amazing took place. They witnessed God's power working through them, changing lives. With the newfound authority of their words and actions, they must have been amazed to see miracles take place at their command and demons fleeing in their presence.Though the Twelve were entrusted with the unique mission of becoming the foundation upon which Jesus would build His Church—especially Saint Peter, the Prince of the Apostles—we must all see ourselves in this divine commissioning. In accord with the requirements of our own divinely appointed missions, we, too, will be entrusted with “authority over unclean spirits.” Though only those officially sanctioned by the Church act in the formal role of exorcists, God's authority is entrusted to each of us to thwart diabolical activity every day. By simply remaining in a state of grace and relying upon that grace, we participate in Christ's victory over evil, thwarting satan's works, revealing his lies, and assisting others in their quest for interior freedom. We do this in varied ways, depending on our vocations and particular missions.Reflect today on the mission Christ has entrusted to you. Parents, spouses, siblings, co-workers, friends, and neighbors are all called to share in Christ's mission in unique and varied ways. As you ponder your own mission, consider two questions. First, have you, like the Twelve, embraced repentance and conversion by drawing closer to our Lord? Have you committed yourself to deepening that conversion so as to be more fully united with Christ? Secondly, have you allowed your union with Christ to equip you for the mission God has entrusted to you? Do you sense His divine authority in your life, enabling you to preach in His name through your words and deeds? Does your mere presence bring Christ's grace, dispelling darkness and evil? Resolve to continue the mission given to the Twelve in accord with God's will, and you, too, will be amazed at what God will do through you. My glorious Lord, You called the Twelve and formed them in Truth and grace, drawing them into lives of profound conversion. You then sent them forth in Your name to preach repentance and to dispel evil with authority.

Do you struggle to wonder what God's will is for your life?Many of us do.Although it isn't a quick answer, the best way to find God's will for your life is to read His Word. The Bible will tell you the answer to that question.Romans 8:31 tells us, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”Actually, finding God's will isn't the hardest part. Deciding to follow His will is where we get tripped up.People need the skill and discipline of being persistent. Too often, the impulse is to give up and then, if we're honest, pretend that God hasn't revealed His will to us.Good old Abe Lincoln had it right when he said that the only important response is to make sure we are on God's side, not whether He's on ours.God has already told us that He's on our side. He sent His Son, Jesus, to take the penalty for our sin. It doesn't get any more “on our side” than that.Change your thinking a bit. Don't focus on what you think God is supposed to do.Resolve instead to follow God, and do it every day.Let's pray.Lord, your will is the thing that drives us on to find our purpose in life. Thank you for sticking with us. Help us to stick with you. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

What if serving God didn't mean doing more, but serving differently with what you already have? Jesus shows that true service isn't about competition, pressure, or piling on commitments, but about humility and faithfulness right where you are. When we reorient everyday moments instead of overloading our lives, service becomes life-giving and quietly transforms both us and our community.

He discussed Travelers' focus on digitization and modernization, the critical need for attracting young talent to the industry and his mission to leave the insurance world better than he found it. Watch the video recording: https://connerins.com/risk-and-resolve/?wchannelid=6jgsnm0r44&wmediaid=puxrzk434z.  --- Visit the Travelers Institute® website: http://travelersinstitute.org/. Join the Travelers Institute® email list: https://travl.rs/488XJZM. Subscribe to the Travelers Institute® Podcast newsletter on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7328774828839100417.  Connect with Travelers Institute® President Joan Woodward on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joan-kois-woodward/. 

Thanks for worshiping with us! Let us know you're here at tulsafbc.org/next we'd love to connect with you! Don't Resolve. Just Remember. – Part 4 — Titus 3:4-8 Sermon from January 25, 2026 – Deron Spoo, Pastor Part 4 of 6 in the series "Don't Resolve. Just Remember."

Let's unpack a truth most people don't want to admit: the thing you're avoiding is action. When you leave inaction untouched, it does not sit quietly. It grows. It drains you. And it quietly reshapes your life through mental drag, stress, and procrastination. Unaddressed conversations don't sit still. Ignored decisions don't pause. Delayed action doesn't disappear. It compounds. It leaks energy, creates anxiety, and slowly trains your nervous system to stay stuck. In this episode, Troy introduces the Bison Theory, a counterintuitive truth rooted in real behavior: while most animals run away from storms and stay trapped in them longer, bison run straight into the storm, shortening how long they suffer. This episode isn't about hype or grit for grit's sake. It's about why facing the thing you're avoiding is the fastest path to transformation, and how movement, not certainty, is what breaks the loop. If you've felt the weight of indecision, the drag of unfinished business, or the mental exhaustion of too many open loops, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.This Episode Covers:Why avoidance is active, not neutral, and how it quietly compounds stressHow “direction determines duration” when it comes to pain and changeWhy facing the storm creates momentum even before clarity shows upHow anticipation of pain often hurts longer than the pain itselfThe real reason action restores energy faster than motivation ever willHow to stop negotiating with reality and start reclaiming agencyWhy transformation begins the moment you turn toward what you've been running fromBeyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize.

Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples, “Is a lamp brought in to be placed under a bushel basket or under a bed, and not to be placed on a lampstand? For there is nothing hidden except to be made visible; nothing is secret except to come to light. Anyone who has ears to hear ought to hear.” Mark 4:21–23What guides your life? What influences your decisions? Many are motivated by worldly desires, such as wealth or status. Others seek fulfillment in fleeting pleasures. Some take their inspiration from cultural icons or those deemed successful by society. But as Christians, we are called to draw our inspiration and motivation from one source: the Light of God's Truth.In today's Gospel, the lamp symbolizes Christ Himself, Who illuminates our minds and guides our decisions, just as a lamp lights up a dark room. A lamp cannot fulfill its purpose if it is hidden under a bushel basket or bed. Similarly, Christ must enlighten every aspect of our lives and shine forth in our words, deeds, and witness to others.If the lamp symbolizes Christ, Who is divine Truth, then the lampstand represents the means by which we elevate and share that Truth. Though God, His grace, and the Truth of the Gospel are the light, that light comes to us in various ways. Our first goal as Christians is to make sure that God's Light is the center of our lives. This means that when questions arise in our lives, we turn first to the Light as the one and only Source of Truth and guidance. We do this by turning to the Scriptures, the Catechism, the lives of the saints, and the inspiration of other holy people.Just as a lampstand supports and elevates a lamp, it also provides a firm foundation, ensuring the light remains steady and visible even amid the winds of life's challenges. Similarly, prayer, sacraments, and good works help stabilize the Light of Truth in our lives, enabling it to shine brightly and consistently.Once our lives are enlightened and we clearly see the path God has chosen for us, we naturally begin to radiate that light to others. This is the essence of evangelization. By our daily prayer, sacramental life, acts of charity, and courage in witnessing to the Gospel, we become the lampstand that lifts high the Light of Christ. As others encounter that light through our example, they too are invited to draw closer to its Source, allowing the Truth of the Gospel to illuminate their lives.Sometimes we can struggle in our efforts to evangelize. When we encounter others who express no interest in the Gospel, it is tempting to remain silent and cover up the Light of Christ. But that leaves others in darkness. The evil one often deceives us into thinking that we shouldn't act as a lampstand for the Light of Christ if others prefer the darkness. We might fear offending them or sounding “holier than thou!” This is a dangerous trap.Charity demands evangelization. All people need Christ in their lives, even if they do not know it or are hostile to Christ's light. If you struggle being a lampstand for Christ, reflect on Jesus' next words: “For there is nothing hidden except to be made visible; nothing is secret except to come to light.” In other words, we all will stand one day before the judgment seat of Christ when every hidden thought and action will come to light, visible to us and all who stand before Christ at the Final Judgment. On that day, will we regret having done everything possible to be a lampstand for Christ's light to others? Certainly not. Instead, we will rejoice in every effort we made, even if our words and actions seemed futile. The light we shine might not immediately brighten someone else's path. Yet, like seeds planted in the soil, it has the potential to grow and bear fruit in God's perfect timing. Reflect today on whether you have allowed fear, complacency, or self-doubt to hide the light of Christ in your life. Consider the people God has placed in your path who need His light but have not yet encountered it through you. Resolve to be a lampstand for Christ, courageously and lovingly lifting His truth high for all to see. Jesus, Light of the World, You came to reveal Yourself as the Truth that sets all people free and the Light Who dispels all darkness. Please shine brightly in my life and be my guide always so that I, in turn, may act as an instrument upon which You rest and shine forth in the lives of others. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Andreas F. Borchert, CC BY-SA 3.0 DE, via Wikimedia CommonsSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc.

As a society, and as an industrial complex, we've made health complicated…and expensive. But, epidemiology suggests that what we need to do to achieve and maintain personal health is really quite simple. Dr. Tom Frieden returns to the show to talk about the second half of his book, The Formula for Your Health. Through extensive research and review of hundreds of epidemiological studies, he distills the findings down to six basic things we need to be doing in order to be healthy. Dr. Frieden acknowledges that there is nuance, but he also affirms that history is clear. There are other societies in the world that were and are far healthier than the US population, and NOT because they had wearables, packaged food, home massagers, or Pelotons.  Dr. Frieden is author of the book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own. He is also the founder and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, a global health organization that accelerates action against the world’s deadliest health threats. Resolve to Save Lives has worked with governments and other partners in more than 60 countries to save millions of lives. Dr. Frieden previously served as director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and New York City Health Commissioner, where he led efforts that increased life expectancy by 3 years and helped end major health crises including the largest US outbreak of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, and responses to H1N1, Zika, and other threats.

Rogers for America with Lt. Steve Rogers – The United States gave Maduro several chances to prevent this military operation from happening. The U.S. government urged him to come to the table and talk; urged him to step down from his presidency, and finally urged him to surrender or face the U.S. military. What next for Venezuela? Time will tell...
