Today, host John Norlin shares an evidence-based reflection strategy called EMR, developed by Dr. Clayton Cook. Using a simple roster exercise, educators categorize each student or staff member into one of three relationship phases: Establish, Maintain, or Restore, and then focus their energy where it is needed most. He also explains why this kind of intentional reflection matters. You cannot be all things to all people at once, but taking a few minutes to identify where each relationship stands gives educators a clear, actionable starting point for being more purposeful in the work they do every day. In this conversation, John offers important reminders for educators and leaders: Relationships with students and staff are not all in the same place at the same time. Some need to be established, some maintained, and some restored, and knowing which is which changes how you show up. You cannot prioritize everything at once. The EMR exercise helps educators zero in on the relationships that need the most intentional attention right now. Restoring a relationship takes real, deliberate action. Naming it honestly is the first step toward doing something about it. Learn More About CharacterStrong: Access FREE MTSS Curriculum Samples Request a Quote Today!

In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard welcomes Dr. Deane Waldman, a pediatric cardiologist turned healthcare reform advocate and author of Become an Empowered Patient. Drawing on nearly 40 years of clinical experience, Dr. Waldman explains why today's healthcare system often places bureaucracy ahead of patients and what individuals can do to navigate it more effectively. Together, they discuss how administrative complexity, insurance policies, and outdated systems create unnecessary barriers for both doctors and patients. Dr. Waldman shares powerful stories from his medical career, including how he helped a critically ill infant receive lifesaving treatment despite insurance restrictions, illustrating why patient advocacy is more important than ever. Gerald and Dr. Waldman also explore healthcare through the lens of productivity, examining how waste, excessive bureaucracy, and disconnected incentives reduce efficiency and patient outcomes. Gerald shares his own journey recovering from a severe vestibular disorder and explains how self-advocacy played a critical role in his healing. Whether you're managing your own healthcare, supporting a loved one, or simply want to become a more informed patient, this episode offers practical insights on asking better questions, making informed decisions, and building stronger partnerships with your healthcare providers.

As part of our Soul Care Summer, we're revisiting a conversation that's stayed with many listeners. Somewhere along the way, many of us picked up the idea that God can only look at us through gritted teeth, or worse, has to look away. Brad Jersak joins Michael to gently dismantle that picture, showing that the ache of feeling far from God was never God's doing.The conversation moves through a recovering addict's encounter with pure light, Cornelius in the book of Acts, and a fresh reading of Psalm 22, all pointing toward the same conviction, that the cross reveals a Father who stays present even in humanity's deepest cry of abandonment. Brad's higher Christology, it turns out, only widens the reach of Abba's love.Brad Jersak is an author and teacher based in Abbotsford, British Columbia, and serves as a reader and monastery preacher at All Saints of North America Orthodox Monastery. He previously joined Restoring the Soul in 2017 to discuss A More Christlike God, and returned to discuss In: Incarnation and Inclusion, Abba and Lamb.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

The Biblical Office of the Evangelist: Restoring God's Harvesters for the Last Days | KIB 539 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description The Church desperately needs to rediscover the biblical office of the evangelist. In Episode 539 of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael Lake continues his series on the biblical Fivefold Ministry by examining what Scripture actually teaches about the office of the evangelist. Far removed from modern celebrity culture and emotional revivalism, the true evangelist is a herald of God's Kingdom who faithfully proclaims the Gospel, calls sinners to repentance, equips believers for soul-winning, and establishes disciples for Christ. Mary Lou Lake begins this episode by sharing an encouraging word on God's promise to quicken His people (Romans 8:11), praying for healing, restoration, renewed strength, and spiritual refreshing for the remnant. She also discusses the importance of strategic prayer for our nation, including praying over spiritual strongholds influencing Washington, D.C. Dr. Lake then explores the biblical foundations of the evangelist through the ministries of Noah, Jonah, Isaiah, John the Baptist, Philip, Timothy, and ultimately Jesus Himself. This study challenges many modern assumptions while calling believers back to authentic New Testament ministry built upon repentance, discipleship, holiness, and covenant faithfulness. This message is an important continuation of our Fivefold Ministry series and serves as a call for God to raise up true evangelists who will prepare the harvest before the return of Christ. Scriptures Discussed Ephesians 4:11–16 2 Peter 2:5 Isaiah 52:7 Luke 19:10 Acts 8 2 Timothy 4:5 Mark 16:20 Romans 8:11 Psalm 85:6 Psalm 119:25 Psalm 119:88 Psalm 119:107 Psalm 119:149 2 Kings 22 Matthew 28:18–20 Topics Covered ✔ What is the biblical office of the evangelist? ✔ Why today's Church misunderstands evangelism ✔ Noah as a preacher of righteousness ✔ John the Baptist as the model evangelist ✔ Philip the Evangelist and Spirit-led ministry ✔ Why true evangelism produces disciples—not merely decisions ✔ The relationship between evangelists and the Fivefold Ministry ✔ Spiritual revival versus emotionalism ✔ God's promise to quicken His people ✔ Strategic intercession for America ✔ The importance of covenant faithfulness Join the Remnant If these teachings strengthen your walk with Christ: ✅ Subscribe to Biblical Life TV ✅ Like this video ✅ Share it with others who desire deeper biblical truth ✅ Leave a comment below telling us what stood out to you most from today's study.

James 1:14-15 says. “But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.15Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.”Did you know there is an anatomy of sin? Satan is very good at using our own desires to entice us to sin. In this podcast we are going to dissect sin in an attempt to help you break this cycle of sin.

Daisy trees, petrels, and pink iguanas... The Galápagos Islands are home to unique endemic species found nowhere else in the world. Sadly, the ecosystems that support them are under threat from invasive species and outright destruction. If something isn't done to turn the tide, species will be lost forever. Luckily, organizations such as Jocotoco Conservation Foundation are hard at work slowing and hopefully reversing this trend. Join me and Juan Alejo Chávez as we discuss the efforts to restore daisy trees (Scalesia pedunculata) and other native plants that comprise this unique forest ecosystem.

Healing isn't about 'fixing' a survivor or making choices for them; it's about restoring the power of choice that trauma stole. In this episode, host Sharlee Dixon sits down with Erin Williamson, the Chief Programs and Strategy Officer at Love146, a leading organization dedicated to preventing child trafficking and providing holistic care for survivors. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Public Administration and over two decades of experience across social services and criminal justice, Erin brings deep expertise to the complex realities of human trafficking and child sexual exploitation. Her leadership extends nationally through her service on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' National Advisory Committee on the Sex Trafficking of Children and Youth in the United States. Through her work at Love146, she continues to drive innovative survivor care and prevention education programs nationwide. We are thrilled to welcome Erin back to our Clinicians Series, where we take listeners behind the proverbial therapy door to explore the strategies and approaches that truly support mental health. Together, we dive into Love146's mission and trauma-informed clinical work with youth who have experienced trafficking and sexual exploitation. We examine how trust is built, how healing is sustained across complex systems, and how challenges and breakthroughs are navigated. Ultimately, we discuss how insights from the therapy room inform prevention, education, and the vital resources available to parents, clinicians, and communities who want to get involved.

Whoever you ask, you are likely find broad agreement that the world needs more energy infrastructure. Whether you are worried about ensuring secure supplies, powering new data centres, or cutting greenhouse gas emissions, the answer is most often going to be investing in new assets: power plants, transmission lines, factories, pipelines, ports… the list goes on. But all too often, getting big projects built is painfully slow, expensive and unpredictable. It is particularly difficult in high-income countries, and perhaps in the US most of all.For this episode, host Ed Crooks and regular guest Dr. Melissa Lott are joined by Craig Albert, the President and COO of Bechtel, one of the world's biggest engineering and construction companies. Together, they discuss the critical problems that get in the way of infrastructure projects, and what businesses and governments can do to get past them.First off, Craig acknowledges that the problems in the system all reflect good intentions. Communities, safety, the environment and local impacts all deserve scrutiny. The problem, especially in the US, is that the process used to take all those factors into account when approving large projects is slow, fragmented and uncertain. The result is that it pushes up costs, delays revenue, creates financing risk, and ultimately slows progress towards energy security and a lower-carbon energy system.The conversation digs into the role of trust and certainty in decision-making. Once a project has been assessed and approved, how do you stop it from being endlessly revisited? Craig argues that some aspects of the US system create particular difficulties. Other developed countries have shown that infrastructure projects can be brought in on time and on budget. Craig cites the Western Sydney International Airport project, which moved from site selection to full construction approval in just two and a half years. In the US, he says, the same process could easily take eight to ten.The discussion then turns to nuclear power, and the lessons from the two new AP1000 reactors built at the Vogtle plant in Georgia. Craig calls Southern Company and Georgia Power “national heroes” for taking on the first greenfield US nuclear project in decades, but he is candid about what went wrong. His biggest takeaway is the importance of deeply integrated EPC: engineering, procurement and construction working as one system from the start. He also stresses the need for earlier investment in workforce training, stronger supply-chain visibility and better sequencing to reduce costly reworks.From there, Ed and Melissa widen the lens to look at other energy sectors. Craig explains why the US LNG industry offers a more hopeful model of projects delivered without huge cost overruns and multi-year delays. In that industry the construction companies are building repeated, standardised projects, with integrated delivery, and a relentless focus on finding and fixing bottlenecks. Bechtel has delivered dozens of LNG trains, he says, all on schedule and within budget, while still improving speed from one project to the next. Similar lessons apply in solar, where scale, automation and better execution are helping push installation rates sharply higher.But policy and project design are only part of the story. Craig argues that workforce is the other great constraint. If every new power plant, grid upgrade, semiconductor fab and airport ultimately depends on skilled craft labour, then the US has to start treating those jobs with the respect they deserve. Restoring the status of skilled trades is not just a cultural issue. It is essential to the country's ability to build, Craig says. The closing message is both practical and cautionary: if the US wants more energy security, more electricity for AI and data centres, and faster progress on decarbonisation, it has to get much better at building. That means fixing permitting, reducing project uncertainty, investing earlier in supply chains, and treating skilled labour as a strategic asset, rather than an afterthought.This episode of Energy Gang is brought to you by ENGIE, the smarter energy supplier.

How entrepreneurs, innovation, and restoration businesses can help save coral reefs and build a new restoration economy, with our guest Sam Teicher.Coral reefs cover less than one percent of our oceans, yet they support around a quarter of all marine life and provide food, livelihoods, and coastal protection for around a billion people. Yet they're disappearing at an alarming rate.Today I'm joined by Sam Teicher, Co-Founder and Chief Reef Officer at Coral Vita - an Earthshot Prize-winning conservation business that's pioneering a new approach to coral reef restoration. Instead of relying solely on traditional conservation funding, Coral Vita is proving that a for-profit business can help restore nature at scale while creating jobs, supporting local communities, and protecting one of the world's most important ecosystems.In this conversation we explore why coral reefs matter, what's driving their decline, and how Coral Vita grows and restores climate-resilient corals. We also discuss the Earthshot Prize, conservation entrepreneurship, the idea of a restoration economy, and whether businesses can become one of conservation's most powerful tools. Finally, Sam shares his own career journey and practical advice for anyone who wants to make a meaningful impact for nature.It's an ocean conservation, conservation entrepreneurship, and restoration innovation podcast.Enjoy.
Sometimes tango music feels old because it is old.And sometimes it feels old because we're not actually hearing what's inside the recording.In this episode, I visit Christian from TangoTunes in their Buenos Aires space - literally below street level - to talk about shellac records, sound restoration, transfer quality, and why the music we dance to at milongas does not always sound the way it originally did.We talk about how Golden Age tango recordings were made, why shellac is so fragile, what happens when old recordings are transferred badly, and why “removing noise” is not always the same thing as improving the music.But this is not just an audio-nerd conversation.It's about listening.Because when a transfer is done well, you can hear more: the bandoneon, the violin, the bass, the piano, the texture, the space between the musicians — what Christian calls “the air in the music.”If you've ever wondered why the same tango can feel totally different depending on the version, transfer, or DJ — this episode will change the way you listen.LINKS + EXTRAS:
Whether you're a business owner, lender, entrepreneur, or industry leader, it probably feels like the rules of business are changing faster than ever before. Artificial intelligence is reshaping how we work, customer expectations continue to evolve, talent is harder to attract and retain, and leaders are being asked to navigate more change than at any point in recent history. The question isn't whether change is coming—it's how we adapt, stay relevant, and continue to grow in the midst of it. Today we're going to explore the major shifts reshaping business, leadership, and the future of work, and discuss what organizations can do to remain competitive while still maintaining the human element that drives innovation, trust, and long-term success. Joining us is one of the world's foremost thinkers on business transformation, innovation, and growth, Rishad Tobaccowala. Rishad has spent decades advising some of the world's largest organizations on growth, innovation, leadership, and navigating disruption. He was named one of the top business leaders by BusinessWeek, recognized by TIME as one of the world's leading marketing innovators, and is one of only 300 individuals inducted into the Advertising Hall of Fame. He's also the author of Restoring the Soul of Business and Rethinking Work, where he explores how leaders and organizations can thrive in an era defined by technology, AI, and constant change. He is the host of the What Next? The Rethinking Work Show and Unbossing podcasts and publishes a thought letter called "The Future Does Not Fit into the Containers of the Past" thought letter which is read by over 30,000 leaders every week. During the show we discuss: Why the future won't fit into old business models How AI is reshaping roles, expectations, and opportunities The difference between digitizing vs. truly transforming a business Why human skills (creativity, empathy, judgment) matter more than ever How to lead through uncertainty and constant change Why companies must unlearn before they can grow How to build organizations that adapt faster than the market The mindset shift required to thrive in the future of work Resources: https://rishadtobaccowala.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/rishadtobaccowala/
This Sunday, we unpacked Mark 6:1–6, and discovered how familiarity with Jesus can cause us to lose our expectancy for what He wants to do and were challenged to restore our faith, raise our expectations, and trust that God still desires to do extraordinary things in and through His people.
This episode recounts a medical emergency that occurred during a large conference and explains how a quick critical incident stress debrief helped restore the group and the organization. Todd outlines a simple restoration framework—who's hurt, what they need, and who will help—and walks through a seven-step debrief process that turns trauma into learning, supports people emotionally, and improves future response.
Between 1984 and 1986, to celebrate 100 years since it was dedicated, the Statue of Liberty underwent a multi-million-dollar restoration project. The statue was a gift to the USA by France, to celebrate 100 years of American independence. The project also restored the former immigration processing centre on the nearby Ellis Island, which became a National Museum of Immigration. The entire project was funded by private investment. Peter Dessauer, one of the architects who oversaw the process, tells Tim O'Callaghan about the challenges involved. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Reviving a Marching Band Legacy: How Teachers Build Community in Forest Lake | The Kindness Chronicles Steve and Jeff fill in for John and discuss Steve's volunteer experience at the Special Olympics USA Games ESPN Unified Sports Challenge at Allianz Field, where he accompanied producer Jimmy "Jam" Harris and various celebrity sideline coaches. They then welcome Forest Lake educators Jake Matheson and Katie DuBois to discuss how music and marching band create belonging as the U.S. nears its 250th birthday. Jake recounts starting on tuba, being mentored by teachers like Sandy Briggs and Rich Hahn, advocating to restore Forest Lake's marching band, and later rebuilding it in 2016 from a program that had disappeared to 140 members, supported by fundraising and scholarships. Katie describes how her passion for the clarinet evolved, joining the University of Minnesota marching band, and helping design field formations for her alma mater, while both emphasize teacher support, community, and inclusion.

How much of your team's struggle is really about the work and how much is about everything else? In this episode, Kevin talks with Dr. Liane Davey about why the real challenge many teams face isn't simply workload, but "thought load". Liane defines this as the rising cognitive demands, emotional burdens, and depleted energy reserves that make work feel heavier than it may appear. She explains how multitasking, constant urgency, oversized meetings, unclear priorities, and poor energy habits quietly drain performance and create more rework, stress, and burnout. She also shares practical ways leaders can help, including replacing urgency with true priority, creating space for focused work, taking real breaks, managing emotions rather than ignoring them, and modeling healthier boundaries.

Were you taught that a Christian cannot be oppressed by a demon? Or that if you leave the demons alone, they will leave you alone? How is that working for you? If this is true, then why do so many Christians continue to struggle with ongoing issues? Many people have tried not to be angry, not to look at pornography, not to feel rejected, or tried not to overeat but just keep failing over and over again. Often, you can “manage” your behavior and not give in to it, but if the pressure is there it's being energized by something! My friend, “managing” is better than giving in to it, but it isn't freedom. If you have tried and failed to quit doing something repeatedly consider that the demonic oppression maybe involved!

The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From April 2026. Today's 2 topics: - Artificial light at night also known as light pollution is degrading human safety and health as well as damaging the natural environment on which we all depend. The loss of the connection with the natural night sky has happened over the past 100 years. Restoring the natural night sky is relatively simple and can even save money. Before restoration can effectively begin it is essential to make night sky brightness measurements in both natural night sky and urban locations. - On a recent night my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Vivian Carvajal found 4 Earth approaching space rocks with our small but mighty Schmidt telescope on Mt. Bigelow, Arizona. These Earth approaching asteroids are all small with an average diameter about the width of tennis court. On their current paths none of them come closer than about 4 lunar distances from our home planet.

Chronic immune activation creates a feedback loop between immune cells that keeps them stuck in "on mode," increasing the likelihood of uncontrolled growth and lymphoma development over time Autoimmunity and cancer are opposite outcomes of the same immune system imbalance, meaning pushing your immune system too hard or suppressing it too much both increase disease risk Cancer treatments that boost immune activity improve tumor destruction but often trigger autoimmune damage, while autoimmune treatments weaken immune surveillance and allow abnormal cells to survive longer Your gut and mitochondrial function directly control immune behavior, and when these systems break down, your immune system receives constant danger signals and stays activated Restoring balance requires rebuilding gut health gradually, removing damaging factors like seed oils, maintaining steady cellular energy with adequate carbohydrates, and reinforcing daily rhythms through movement and sunlight
In this powerful conversation, Delano Squires, Director of the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Human Flourishing at The Heritage Foundation and author of The Vanishing Black Family, breaks down the dramatic collapse of the Black family — from stable two-parent homes in the 1940s-1950s to today's 70% out-of-wedlock birth rate. Delano explains how slavery deformed but did not destroy the Black family, but how the combination of 1960s welfare policies and new ideologies worked to undermine it.CHAPTERS:(00:00 Introduction)(01:45 The 1986 Bill Moyers Documentary)(04:20 Why Delano Wrote This Book Now)(08:10 The Black Family Before the 1960s – Surprisingly Stable)(13:40 Slavery's Real Impact vs. Welfare & Feminism)(19:55 The Economic Argument – Jobs vs. Culture)(26:40 Why the “Marriageable Men” Theory Falls Short)(32:15 Restoring the Black Family – The Multi-Generational Plan (Church, HBCUs & More))(42:50 Final Thoughts)DELANO SQUIRES LINKS:
