What walls can we tend to construct for ourselves? Can we build walls with other people, keeping them out to protect ourselves from hurt somehow? Perhaps we try to isolate, staying away from people where it is safe. Or perhaps, we have walls in the form of numbing substances and distractions, so that we don't have to feel anything. Still yet, we can maintain walls by being endlessly busy, so we never have to get quiet, deal with things, and hear from God.On today's episode, we look at an astounding passage where Joshua hears directly from the pre-incarnate Jesus about bringing the walls of Jericho down, and we learn how we, too, can live a life of faith without walls!Turn to Hebrews 11:30 and Joshua 5-6 for todays' episode of Rinse and Repeat!(RAR2025EP340

What if your firm could attract qualified prospects, convert them automatically, and scale without the constant hustle?Sam Mollaei and Neil Tyra unveil the Rapid Law Firm Growth Formula—a proven 6-step system combining high-converting ads, virtual intake specialists, and ROI tracking. Learn how to create ads that attract your ideal clients, qualify leads automatically, and let virtual intake sign clients while you focus on practicing law.Key Takeaways from Sam and Neil:1. Create Ads To Attract LeadsRun targeted ads that address audience pain points, like "Injured in an accident?" with strong CTAs such as "Click ‘Learn More' to see if you qualify," and leverage platform optimization for better performance.2. Qualify LeadsUse tools like Facebook Lead Forms or landing pages to ask essential questions that filter out unqualified leads, and automate the process with tools like ChatGPT to streamline qualification.3. Integrate Leads Into a CRMAutomate lead management by connecting CRM tools like Zapier to ensure seamless data flow and set up automated follow-ups through text and email.4. Have Dedicated Virtual Intakers To Sign Up Clients For YouHire virtual intake specialists to focus on qualifying and signing up clients quickly, offering a cost-effective solution, and ensuring timely follow-ups to maximize conversions.5. Scale Marketing Budget to Match ROITrack CPA and CLV to assess profitability and scale spending on campaigns with at least a 200% ROI, using live dashboards to reallocate funds effectively.6. Rinse and RepeatRefine ads, automations, and processes regularly to improve performance and scale into new markets once the system is running smoothly. "We've seen ourselves becoming closer to more and more of the virtual intake. It's like we're what we focus on. Much easier, much faster, more room to scale, easier to train." — Sam Mollaei"Having the data to make that decision is key, and your live dashboard is the penultimate development of those numbers, to the point where you have this graphic and visual tool that lets you answer these questions in real time. It makes the decision point easier." — Neil Tyra

When you get bad news, maybe you do what I do, and immediately start running through worst-case scenarios - what you will do when this happens, or that happens...But the beautiful thing about our faith in Christ is that we do not have to live with this doomsday mentality. We do not always have to be striving to figure out how to handle life, because God has promised to be our refuge, our fortress, our ever-present help in time of need!In this special episode, I look at an instance in Scripture when all seemed lost for Israel, and what God showed His people to do. I also examine what it means for us when God allows the worst thing to happen - when our loved ones die, when we get incurable diseases, when relationships are irreparably damaged. Does it mean God is not good? That He is not to be trusted?Join me as I explore the question, "Will He Protect Me?" in this lagniappe episode of Rinse and Repeat!(RAR2025EP25rev)

Cheat the system, make it easier for yourself by creating your own meal plan. You'll want 2-3 options for each of your meals and snacks. Make them delicious, so yummy that you would want to have them often. Then, based on those options, create your meal plan for the week, adjust your portions to hit your macros.  Finally, RINSE and REPEAT. Occasionally changing up your meal plan, or adding new meal ideas to your rotation.  This is the best of both worlds, the flexibility of macros and understanding food and making it mindless, efficient, and consistent. Take one hour to complete this. I would highly recommend this to anyone before starting their calorie deficit, or before starting to track macros.

The biggest tin foil hat conspiracy theory we all need to pay attention to is we humans have the ability to think and exist in a bigger way.   From a young age, we're programmed to play smaller.    Why would we do this?     First off, control.    When a colt horse is a colt or a pony, you can tie it to the reigns and to a poll.    Once it realize it can't break free from the pole, it stops fighting.    The reigns are removed and now, they're tame.     The same goes for humans.    If you think you can do something or you can do something, you're right.    How do you do bigger things?    It's simple.    Goaling and regoaling.    If you want to make one million dollars.    Goal number one is $100,000.    Goal number 2 is $250,000.    Goal number 3 is $500,000.    And so on and so forth.    It takes time to hit your goals, but you can't go from 0 to a million.    If you want to make $100,000, you have to make $300 a day.    Set an attainable goal.    Reach the goal.    Reset the goal.    Rinse and repeat.      About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Rinse and repeat, as Trump confounds the so-called experts and thwarts all the tenets of Leftism like he's playing whack-a-mole with a sledge hammer.As I said yesterday, the man is unstoppable. You know why Trump is so formidable? He's one of the first presidents who doesn't need the money, nor does he care about it. What miracles did Trump work today. Because when it comes to what this guy does it's rinse and repeat. A broken record, where the same piece repeats over and over. And it's good news.Trump has put away all the Leftist tropes:He's a racist. He's sexists. He's whatever. And he's burying them on Epstein, piling dirt on top of their coffins, and they are too stupid to realize it's happening.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this empowering episode, Tina Tower takes listeners through the 10 universal problems that every entrepreneur faces—no matter where they are on their journey. More importantly, she offers clearly actionable steps for overcoming each obstacle, helping you to anticipate and navigate the challenges that are simply part of the entrepreneurial “game.” Tina breaks down everything from the struggle to clarify your vision and inconsistent sales, to overcoming fears around visibility and burnout from trying to do it all yourself. You'll finish this episode with a renewed mindset, practical strategies, and encouragement to treat business as a series of solvable challenges—and maybe even learn to enjoy the process! Key Topics Covered: No Clear Vision Many entrepreneurs are flying by the seat of their pants. Tina shares how crucial it is to define your version of success and reverse-engineer the path to get there. Poor Time Management Being busy ≠ being productive. Use ruthless prioritization and weekly planning to stay focused on high-impact tasks—those that bring joy, enhance customer experience, or make you money. Inconsistent Sales Avoid “feast or famine” cycles by building predictable sales systems. Balance launches with evergreen marketing efforts and build your email list continuously. Weak Financial Controls Know your numbers! Regularly monitor revenue, expenses, and the sources of your income. Use targets and cash flow forecasting to avoid surprises. Fear of Visibility Fear often stands between you and growth. Start small with visibility—like Instagram stories—and build your courage through practice, focusing on who you serve rather than yourself. Undercharging for Services Price based on the value and transformation you provide—not your time or number of lessons. Align your pricing with your confidence and competitor analysis. Hiring Challenges Don't hire too early or too late. Systemize and outsource tasks thoughtfully, and aim to hire people who can take full ownership of their responsibilities. Shiny Object Syndrome Stay focused! Resist the urge to constantly pivot. Rinse and repeat your core offers at least three times before considering a major change. Not Enough Thinking Time Schedule regular “CEO” thinking time to evaluate what's really moving the needle and to course-correct as needed. Trying to Do it All Alone Building a support system—both in your business and at home—is essential for sustainability. Delegate, automate, and eliminate wherever possible. Business will always present new challenges, but every obstacle is 100% solvable when you approach problems as opportunities to level up. Accept these challenges as part of the entrepreneur's journey, and remember: enjoy the process!   Resources & Mentions: Monday.com (for dashboards & finance tracking) Tim Ferriss, The 4-Hour Workweek (on automating, delegating, eliminating) Pareto Principle (80/20 rule)   Where to find Tina: Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder

The Bible says that as a man THINKS, so is he (Proverbs 23:7). In other words, we ARE what we THINK. Think anxious thoughts, and become an anxious person. Think hateful thoughts, become a hateful person. Today on Rinse and Repeat, we revisit a message about putting our thoughts on trial. Using Philippians 4:8 as your guide, ask yourself questions like, "this this thought true?  Is it honest/honorable?" We will also explore how then to RENEW OUR MIND with whatever things are true, honest, etc. Join me for this special lagniappe edition of Rinse and Repeat!!(RAR2025EP29)

Introduction: Guard Your Heart… (Proverbs 4:20–27) With the WORD OF GOD (Proverbs 4:20–22) Psalm 119:9–11 (ESV) – How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word. With my whole heart I seek you; let me not wander from your commandments! I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. Because it BRINGS TRUE LIFE (Prov 4:22a) Because it BRINGS LASTING HEALING (Prov 4:22b) With UNWAVERING VIGILANCE (Proverbs 4:23–27) Luke 6:45 (ESV) – The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. By Watching WHAT YOU SAY (Prov 4:24) Proverbs 13:3 (ESV) – Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin. By Controlling WHAT YOU FOCUS ON (Prov 4:25) By Directing WHERE YOU GO (Prov 4:26–27) 1 Kings 11:2–4 – ...for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods.” Solomon clung to these in love... For when Solomon was old his wives turned away his heart after other gods... Sermon Notes (PDF): BLANKHint: Highlight blanks above for answers!

How would you describe your devotional life and the ways it needs to improve?What does it look like to be vigilant in guarding your heart? How have you been lazy in guarding your heart in the past?What actions steps do you need to take moving forward?BreakoutPray for one another. AUDIO TRANSCRIPT The Lord saved me at a young age, but my relationship with Him wasn't really deep until I was a senior in high school.At that time, I became a serious student of God's Word and I bought myself a nice new Bible.Do you want to see that nice and new Bible 16 years later?Alright, thanks. I'll show Jay. Jay wants to see it.Here's how it looks now. How's it look?Some of you get it. Yeah, it does look good in some ways. It doesn't look great in other ways, though, does it?You may be wondering, did you get run over by a lawn mower or something while you were reading it?Nothing as dramatic as that, but for years, this Bible went everywhere with me.It took it to Haiti, twice to Kenya, all the missions, trips I led as a youth pastor.I preached a lot of sermons and taught a lot of lessons from this Bible.When I first bought it, I protected it. I guarded it. I kept it in the box. It came in whenever I put it into my backpack or went on a trip.But as years went by, I stopped protecting it with the box and I just hoped for the best.And I kept getting more worn out, kept getting more beat up.With each passing year, I kept looking worse and worse and worse and worse.It really bummed me out to look at this Bible and what it had become.Other people would comment on it as well, like, "Do you need to buy a new Bible or get it rebounded?"It's going to fall apart any minute.So I eventually took people up on that and I bought a nice leather-bound Bible.And I learned my lesson with my old Bible because I still have the box for the new one.And I still keep it in there all the time whenever I travel or put it into my backpack.I am resolved to guard this copy of God's Word moving forward.It has immense value to me. It is precious to me.So I want to take care of it by any means necessary.According to God's Word, there is something of immense value within youthat you often fail to consider and guard properly.Your heart. Your heart should be precious to youand you should want to take care of it by any means necessary.Over this past year, we have focused on one major theme from Scripture.God wants your heart.God wants your heart.But what if you don't want God like you used to?What if you don't want to give God your heart like you used to?This is the final week of our latest series, Heart Problems.What to do when you don't want God?Every single person in this room has a heart problem of some kind.It could be apathy and prayer, spiritual laziness and gratitude,unrepentant sin in your life.Thankfully, God has solutions to every single heart problem you can experience.Over the past few weeks, we've discovered three of God's solutionsto these heart problems.Evaluating your heart. Confessing sin from your heartand giving thanks with your heart.Maybe at this point you're thinking, "Well, Taylor, I'm good to go.I've done all those things. I've evaluated my heart.I've confessed sin from my heart. I've given thanks to my heart.Time to move on from this series and go back to the Sermon on the Mount.Thanks so much. I'm done with this."Well, not so fast.You are missing one important piece of the puzzle,and that is guarding your heart.Because if you fail to guard your heart,you will lose all the progress that you've made over the past few weeks.And all the old heart problems that you had will return and intensify.New heart problems will pop up and spiral out of control.You must protect yourself from this danger.You must do your best to resolve these heart problems when they first pop upinstead of ignoring them and leaving them undoubt with.We'll spend the rest of this message talking about what it looks liketo guard your heart in action.I want you to walk out of this series with a confidencethat you can resolve heart problems right when they appearthrough God's power and with God's methods.So before we continue, let's go to the Lord in prayer.Please pray for me, and I will pray for you.Father, we come to you with a sense of weightiness.But we all have a heart problem of some kind right now.None of us can say that we don't.I pray that we can be honest about it this morning.Bring those things to you that you can change us,that you can convict us, that you can build us up.Lord, I can do none of those things.All I can do is share your word,and you are the only one who can use your word to change lives.And I ask that you would do that this morning.I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.So over the past two Sundays,we spent a lot of time with King David in the Psalms.This morning we're going to spend some timewith King David's son Solomon in Proverbs chapter 4 verses 20 through 27.So if you have a Bible with you,you can turn to Proverbs chapter 4 verses 20 through 27.And as you turn there,let me give you a quick crash course on King Solomon.At a young age, this man was given a blank check by God himself.Name what you want, and I'll give it to you.You ever think about how awesome that is?Just imagine that.What do you think you would ask forif God gave you that blank check?Well, Solomon didn't ask for what was expected.He didn't ask for riches, for honor, or the ability to fly.That would be really cool though.No, what does he ask for instead?Wisdom.Wisdom, which is the ability to apply God's wordto every situation you experienceand every decision that you make.Wisdom is knowledge and action.And God was so pleased with this answerthat he still gave Solomon all the stuffhe didn't ask for minus the superpower flighthe didn't get that.But Solomon was blessed with so much material stuff,most importantly, with wisdom from God.And he used this wisdom to accomplish a lot of great thingslike building the first temple,but later in life, he squandered that wisdom,which we'll talk about at the end of this message.But the first nine chapters of Proverbsare written from the perspectiveof a father speaking to his son.Solomon is addressing his own son,but he's also acting like a fatherly figureto anyone who listens to what he has to say.His wise words should not be ignored.They should not be forgotten.They should be treasured.And in these chapters, Solomon tells his sonthat wisdom is the most valuable thing.It's better than silver, gold, or precious jewels.He's seek after wisdom and get it.He also warns his son against many thingsthat he should not do.But our main focus this morningis Solomon's words of wisdom about his son's heart.That is the thing that Solomon is most concerned aboutbecause if your heart is wrong,it doesn't really matter what else you get right.Solomon gives his son and everyone who readsProverbs 4, 20 through 27 the same command,guard your heart.So on your outline,guard your heart with the word of God.Guard your heart with the word of God.Let's read verses 20 through 21."My son, be attentive to my wordsand climb your ear to my sayings.Let them not escape from your sight.Keep them within your heart."These verses remind me a lot of conversationsI had with my dad when I was younger,when he made it very clear that I should listento what he had to say and not tune him out.I have very similar conversations with my own sonthat vary in their level of effectiveness and success.In those moments, I want my son, Sam, to close his mouth,open his ears, and heed my warningsto listen to what I have to say.But you have to remember that this instructionfrom an earthly father isn't the only thinghappening in this passage.Remember, this is the authoritative word of God.It's not just the end of the Andy Griffith Show.When Sheriff Andy sits down with Opieto give the major moral lesson,no, your heavenly father is sitting you downto give you commands and instructions.God himself is calling you to be attentive to his words,to incline your ears to his sayings,to not let them escape your sightand to keep them within your heart.That sounds very similar to Psalm 119-11.How can a young man keep his way pureby guarding it according to your word?With my whole heart I seek you.Let me not wander from your commandments.I have stored up your word in my heartthat I might not sin against you.You cannot guard your heart, fight sin,and lead a pure life apart from significant time in the Bible.It's just not possible.It's like trying to build a deck on the back of your housewithout any tools or any supplies of any kind.You can have the best of intentions,but you will get nowhere fast.It's not enough just to read the Bible.You need to keep it stored up in your heart.How do you do that?You push out other things to make room for it.You kill the bad habits in your life.You let go of those hobbies that hold you backand that vie for your attention.You make room for God's word by memorizing it.I know what some of you are thinking,"Taylor, I can't memorize stuff. I have a horrible memory."Let me share a universal truth with you.You memorize what you care about.If you love sports,you have a ton of information about players,games, teams, write your fingertips at all times.If you love golf in this room,you have a lot of informationdownloaded into your brain about the perfect golf swing.All the courses you want to play at in the world,if you're a movie freak,you have film knowledge, directors, actors,write in your brain,what is the focus of your memorization?What do you make the most room for in your heart?John Bunyan, the man who wrote one of the best-selling books of all time,The Pilgrim's Progress, hundreds of years ago,was described in this way."This man is a living Bible.Prick him anywhere and he will bleed the Bible.The very essence of the Bible flows from him.He cannot speak without quoting a textfor his very own purpose.He cannot speak without quoting a textfor his very soul is full of the Word of God."Is that description true of you?I wish I fit this description far more than I do.But this can describe you.It can describe me if we grab ahold of the right motivations.And let me tell you this morning,I have no desire to guilt youfor spending more time in the Bible.Do you want to know why?Because that motivation won't last beyond the end of this week.You may be diligent in studying, reading, praying this week,but it won't last any longer.You need the motivation only God can provide.You need to believe that this book is far more importantthan anything else you can set your mind toor fill your time with.Truly be convinced from your heart that reading this book,studying it, living it, applying it,blesses and benefits you in every wayand in every area of life.My yelling, my nagging, my pesteringmay make you feel like a shame dogpopped on the nose with a rolled up newspaper.But those tactics will not make you lovethe instructions of your heavenly mastereven one bit more.So let's talk about two motivationsthat will inspire you to guard your heartwith the Word of God.So on your outline,guard your heart with the Word of Godbecause it brings true life.Because it brings true life.Let's check out the first half of verse 22."For they are life to those who find them."You are only as healthy as what you consume.As the old saying goes, "You are what you eat."That is true both physically and spiritually.Your physical well-being cannot rise abovewhat you put into your body.Your spiritual well-being cannot rise abovewhat you put into your heart.When he was tempted by Satan and the wilderness,Jesus quoted Deuteronomy 8.3,"Man shall not live by bread alonebut by every word that comes from the mouth of God."Maybe you are spiritually starving this morningbecause you have never feasted on the Word of God.You have never tasted the goodness of Jesus Christin the gospel.Listen, nothing and no one can satisfy your longingsand cravings apart from Jesus Christ.Stop poisoning yourself with the junk food of this world.That diet will do nothing but make you sick,hurt your heart, and kill your eternal soul.Life is offered to you today in the Word of God.Let go of the junk food of this worldand grab a hold of Jesus Christ who suffered,died, and rose again so that you can have eternal lifethat starts now and lasts forever.Grab a hold of Christ by faith and you will have that life.Guard your heart with the Word of Godbecause it brings true lifeand because it brings true healing.Because it brings true healing.Let's read all of 22."For they are life to those who find them in healingto all their flesh."The Word of God provides a remedy for every ailment.It provides a solution to every heart problem.This book is like the ultimate Swiss army knife.It is multifaceted, multi-purpose,and useful for every situation.It is a genuine lifesaver.I can't guarantee you much,but I guarantee you there is no trial,there is no discouragement,there is no relational issuethat you cannot come to the Word of Godand find wisdom for.There is no issue, you'll come across and be like,"Well, the Bible can't help me with this.Time to buy a self-help book or watch that lifetime movie.Maybe that'll help me."No.The healing help you are looking for is in the Word of God.It's right at your fingertips.You can have access to it every single secondof every single day.And the Lord has brought me so much healing personallyby praying through Scripture,especially through the Psalms.The Psalms provide you a vocabularyfor how to pray to Godas you experience every emotion.Anger, fear, frustration, confusion, sadness,excitement, joy.Do you pray through Scripture?If you don't, let me teach you how to do it.This is very complex.Are you all ready for this?All right, really pay attention.Read a verse and then pray about it.Read the next verse and then pray about it.Read the next verse and then pray some more about it.Rinse, wash, and repeat.Can you do that?You can do that.Pray through God's Word.Pray through the Psalms.Are you overwhelmed right now?Are you at the lowest point that you've been in a long time?Are you in need of healing?Push out what the world has to say about you and your issues.Make room for what God has to say about you and your issues.Guard your heart with the Word of Godand you will experience the healing and the lifethat you are so desperate for.Guard your heart, secondly, with unwavering vigilance.With unwavering vigilance.Verse 23 is the centerpiece of this entire passage.It is one of the go-to verseswhen it comes to the importance of your heart.Solomon writes this,"Keep your heart with all vigilancefor from it flow the springs of life."After a year of repetition,you may be tired of hearing it,but I'm going to say it again,your heart is who you really are on the inside.Your heart is like a spring or a fountain.Everything that you think, say, and do flows from it.Most fountains only pour out what they are filled with.If a decorative fountain is filled with contaminated water,it will only pour out unclean water that you shouldn't drink.If a fondue fountain is filled with cheese and chocolate,you shouldn't be surprised when it only pours out cheese and chocolate.Your heart is a fountain that will only pour out what it is filled with.Have you ever come across a person who is rude in every situationand constantly rags on everyone?And then someone comes along to defend this person."Oh, well, you know, they might be rough around the edges,but deep down, he or she really is a nice and kind person."What do we think about that?Is that true?Incorrect.What is in that person's heart spews out of their mouth.Their heart is full of resentment and disrespect,so it comes out in how they talk to everyone.I can't put it any better than our Lord when He said,"The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good,and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil.For out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks."You show who you really are by what you say and by what you do.And with that essential truth in mind, Solomon says,"Keep your heart with all vigilance."Vigilance.Do you know who I think of when I hear that word?McGruff the crime dog.Does anyone remember McGruff?He was a character in the '80s who was created to increase personal safetyand awareness of crime.He was a bloodhound in the trench coatwho had a really deep and intimidating voice.Does anyone know what his tagline was?Anyone remember?"Take a bite out of crime."McGruff set his sights on important issues like bullying, drug use, home invasion.And he would just be so emphatic that you have to defend yourself.You have to have alarm systems. You have to have a deadbolt on your door.McGruff wants you to be constantly aware and unwaveringly vigilantin order to guard your loved ones and yourself from the crime that wants to take a bite out of you.Well, God himself wants you to be constantly aware and unwaveringly vigilantin order to guard your heart from the sin that wants to take a bite out of you.You cannot take breaks or vacations from this vigilance.Heart security is infinitely more important than home security.Spiritually, your head needs to be on a swivel at all times.You must be circumspect, not careless, cautious, not casual.So what should you be on the lookout for?How should you guard your heart with unwavering vigilance?What should you be focused on your outline?Guard your heart with unwavering vigilance by watching what you say.By watching what you say.Let's read verse 24."Put away from you crooked speech and put devious talk far from you."Crooked speech and devious talk, what does that mean?It's not about trying to be honest, it's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.It's about trying to be honest.That is a stupid thought that you and I both fall for.We've already established that you show who you are on the insideby what you say on the outside.So let's run that through.If you lie to others on the outside, who does that make you on the inside?That makes you a what?A liar.It's that simple.You cannot call yourself a lover of the truthif you constantly indulge in one of the activities that God hates the most.Elsewhere in Proverbs it says, "Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord."So should you mess around with something that is described so harshly?No, we really shouldn't.The pathway of Christian speech is straight, not crooked.You need to walk the straight highway of God's truthinstead of stumbling down those side roads of deception.Put away crooked speech and devious talk by fessing up to how you've been deceitful.Sit that person, sit those people downto unravel every single lie that you've told.Those conversations sure won't be fun,but they sure will set your heart free.Put away crooked speech and devious talk by entering into tough conversations,by praying to God, "God, I know I'm going to be tempted to be dishonest.I know I'm going to be tempted to stress the truth.Guard my heart.Help me to only say what is true, even if it costs me."Put away crooked speech and devious talk by diving into Proverbs that talk about how you speak.Proverbs like the one we're studying this morning, or Proverbs 13.3,"Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life, he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin."Be vigilant in guarding your heart by guarding your mouth.Be vigilant in what you say and what you don't say.Guard your heart with unwavering vigilance by controlling what you focus on.So Solomon moves from what you say to where you look in verse 25."Let your eyes look directly forward and your gaze be straight before you."Where you look is where you'll end up.Where you look is where you'll end up.Imagine that after church, I take a nice long walk,I find myself on a road with a really steep embankment.And for some reason, I stop looking directly aheadand my eyes start to wander to the embankment.Keep looking at it, keep looking at it, keep looking at it.If I keep doing that, where am I going to end up?Smashing into the guardrail or through the guardrailand rolling down the entire road.Smashing into the guardrail or through the guardrail and rolling down the embankment.I will most likely get in a very serious accident.I could have avoided that if I had kept my eyes looking directly forwardwhere I should have been looking.Where are you looking right now?Are you looking where God wants you to look?Or are you looking where the enemy wants you to look?Where the world wants you to look?If you keep up with watching those corrupting movies and shows,you'll end up with those movies and shows rewriting your thinking.If you keep up with mindlessly, endlessly scrolling on social mediaall hours of the day, you'll end up as a spiritual zombie.As an undisciplined slacker who doesn't give his or her familythe time and attention that they deserve.If you keep up with that pornography addiction,you will end up feeling very aloneand ruining the good connection that you have with your spouse.You become what you behold.Be vigilant in guarding your heart by controlling where you lookand what you focus on.Finally, guard your heart with unwavering vigilanceby directing where you go.By directing where you go.Let's wrap up with verses 26 through 27."Ponder the path of your feet, then all your ways will be sure.Do not swerve to the right or to the left.Turn your foot away from evil."Staple this truth to your brain and never forget it.You are one decision away from life-shattering disaster.You can destroy all the trust that you've worked so hard to build up in an instant.You can tear your reputation to shreds with one choice.You can do serious damage if you're not careful of where you go.Don't do what feels good.Don't do what feels right.Do what is good.Do what is right."Ponder the path of your feet.Direct yourself to where you should go."But here's the thing.You can't ponder the path of your feet on your own.You will go to the right or to the left if you isolate yourself.You will not turn your foot away from evil if you try to go this way alone.Direct yourself towards worshiping with God's people every single week.Direct yourself towards intentional Christian community in small groups.Direct yourself to honest and accountable relationships in the body of Christ.If you've been on the outskirts of this church for weeks, months, or even years,I want to encourage you to dive in.Take a risk.Be vulnerable.Listen, you may have been hurt in the past by a church,and I in no way want to nullify that or minimize that pain.But that pain will not go away if you don't get involved in this church.It will only get worse and worse and worse.To truly be in community, to be truly known, to truly know others,it's always a risk.It always requires you being vulnerable.Take that step in faith and trust the Lord.Trust that He will direct you to where you should go.That He will direct you towards greater maturity and connectedness in the body of Christ.Please know that we love you and we want you here.Be vigilant and guard in your heart by directing where you go.At the end of this message, you may be thinking, "Well, Taylor,all this stuff that Solomon is saying is very obvious.I already know all this stuff. It's not complex."You're right.Keeping your heart, guarding your heart is not complex,except when it comes to actually doing it.When theory becomes reality, when rubber meets the road,when your worldly desires experience a head-on collision with your godly affections.Before we close a curtain on this series,I want to give you a word of warning from Solomon himself.It's actually a warning from his own life,because Solomon didn't listen to his own words.As time went on, he didn't guard his heart with the word of God.He didn't guard his heart with unwavering vigilance.He was told, "Time and time again,don't marry foreign wives from pagan nations who worship other gods.If you do that, they will cause you to not be faithful to the Lord."Solomon knew that, but he didn't listen.Which leads to one of the saddest passages in the entire Old Testament.Solomon clung to these in love.He had 700 wives who were princesses and 300 concubines.And his wives turned away his heart.For when Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods.And his heart was not wholly true to the Lord, his God,as was the heart of David, his father.What a heartbreaking end for Solomon.What a serious warning for you and for me.Solomon knew it all.He knew what the right thing to do was, but he didn't do it.He didn't guard his heart.It's tempting to think, "Well, my heart seems like it's fine right now."But then you fail to think,"Well, I'm going to have heart problems moving forward."You may not think that you have heart problems right now,and that you're free from them.But what about tomorrow?What about next week?What about next month?What about next year? Are you ready?Evaluating your heart is not a once in a lifetime appointment.It is a daily appointment with the Lord.Confessing sin from your heart isn't something you just do once at your conversion.No, it is a daily acknowledging and repenting of your sin.Giving thanks with your heart isn't something that you just do in Novemberwhen you're eating turkey with your family.It is a daily discipline that shapes how you view Godand how you view your own life.Guarding your heart isn't just something you do when you have the time.No, it's something you do 24/7, 365 days a year.Guard your heart with the Word of Godbecause it is the only source of help, encouragement, and strength that you can find.Guard your heart with unwavering vigilancefor from it flow the springs of life.Your heart problems can only be solved by God's solutions.Let's pray.Father, we come to you.And we acknowledge that there is something going on within all of us.Whether it's doubt, severe anxiety, constant complaining,a sin that we don't think anyone knows about, but you do.What help us to lay all those things at your feet,help us to seek after you for help, for encouragement, for strength.Lord, we don't have the energy in ourselves to guard our hearts.We don't have the passion that's needed within ourselves, but you do.Give us your strength, give us your encouragement, give us your passionso that we can guard our hearts, not just today, but every day moving forward.We ask all these things in Jesus' name. Amen

Summary In this episode of the Conquer Athlete Podcast, Ryan Bucciantini and Jason Leydon discuss the critical importance of mastering the basics in sports and coaching. They emphasize that regardless of an athlete's level, revisiting fundamental skills is essential for long-term growth and performance. Through anecdotes, including a story about Kobe Bryant's training habits, they illustrate how foundational skills underpin success in various sports. The conversation also highlights the need for coaches to assess athletes' foundational strength and stability to support their progression and longevity in their respective sports.   Takeaways Mastering the basics is crucial for long-term success. Fundamentals cannot be overlooked in athlete development. Kobe Bryant exemplified dedication to the basics. A strong foundation supports athletic growth. Revisiting fundamentals is essential for advanced athletes. The tallest trees have the deepest roots, symbolizing strong foundations. Coaches must assess athletes' ceilings and foundations. Building a solid base is key to performance. Rinse, wash, and repeat to elevate athletes. The best athletes continuously master the basics. Topics Mastering the Basics for Athletic Success The Power of Fundamentals in Sports Sound Bites "Mastering the basics wins long term." "You can't discount the fundamentals." "Assess what their ceiling is."

Consistency. Discipline. Perseverance. Pursuing mastery in business through tedious tasks is an unusual path. Repeating the fundamentals over and over again, tweaking, and adjusting, only to come back to the same “boring” tasks, is not everyone's cup of tea.

This week, we're digging into something that's helped a lot of folks — including me — actually make progress: #my3things. Around here, it started as a simple habit. Write down three things. Do them. Rinse and repeat. Turns out, that's enough to change your whole trajectory. I'll share how it's helped me stay focused while we expand the Holler Homestead, plus read some thoughts from listeners who've made it part of their daily rhythm. Also on deck: a green bean canning marathon, why my kitchen looks like a tornado hit it, the story behind my new (super cheap) workstation, and how Basecamp is turning into a legit lodge.

Why I need that permission is beyond me, but it's a hack that works for me. And instead of moving on to another thing on my to-do list when I've done the three things, I usually reward myself with something fun. The something fun might still be productive work, but it is work I want to do, not work I have to do. Joe: Being retired, #MyThreeThings helps me stay active, even if many of the Things are now minor; sort of a more goal-directed puttering. I'm certainly glad the drain issue is resolved. Scott: #mythreethings gives me focus on things that need done for that day. Keeps non important stuff for fill-in work. Ann: Most days my #mythreethings looks like just a to do list but it gives me 3 of the most important things to get done that day. They might not be things that are moving me forward, but they are things that keep me from falling behind. There are days those ADHD butterflies would get the best of me without 3 things to focus on. The world, and we, are messy. Do three things anyway and see how far you can go in a month, then 2 months, then a year! Make it a great week. GUYS!

How good would it feel if you didn't have to chase sales every month and could create them on demand with a simple, repeatable system? Predictable sales aren't just possible; they're practical when you've got a rinse-and-repeat sales cycle you can count on. Let's break it down step by step so that you can create a predictable sales cycle that creates for a more profitable business!

Brad and Jules welcome author, podcast host, photographer, and cocktail spherification expert Renya Edmonds to push the boundaries of drinkable science. Think Jello shots are impressive? Renya is about to revolutionize your cocktail game entirely.    In this episode, Brad walks you through the classic Cantarito served in traditional clay mugs, Jules freestyles a completely unmeasured riff straight into a bottle, and Renya guides us through the precise art of molecular mixology to create edible cocktail pods. Yes, cocktails you can bite into.    Cantarito (the drink, not the pod):  First, go order some clay mugs on amazon - look up cantarito mugs, get those  Get your clay mug, chill it, and then rim it with Tajin  In your shaker add:  2.0oz of Reposado Tequila (blanco is fine if you prefer)  0.75oz of Fresh orange Juice  0.75oz of Fresh lime juice  0.5oz of Fresh lime juice  Pinch of salt  Ice  Shake it like you mean it - about 20 secondes  Fill your clay mug halfway with ice  Strain your shaker into the mug  Top off with Squirt  Garnish with a lime wedge    Ready to attempt the pods? You'll need some specialized equipment: a kitchen scale (gram precision), sodium alginate, calcium lactate, an airtight container, and an immersion blender. We know it sounds intimidating, but the payoff is extraordinary. Oh… and get some ice cube trays if you don't have them. The ones with the silicon bottom work pretty slick.     Sorry, I know this is a lot, but the fun that will follow is worth it    FIRST make your Sodium Alginate bath  5g Sodium Alginate  1 Liter Distilled Water (IT MUST BE DISTILLED)  1/3 cup of sugar  Using an immersion blender, combine sodium alginate, sugar and distilled water in a large airtight bowl  Let sit for 1-24 hours to allow bubbles to dissipate   Next, make your ingredients for your pods (ratio for about 10 pod)  60 grams Reposado Tequial  40 grams Fresh OJ  20 grams Fresh grapefruit Juice  15 grams Fresh lime juice  65g Squirt  Pinch of salt  TOTAL should be 200 grams  (you'll need 6 grams of Calcium Lactate - hold this off to the side until you've read the directions)  Heat 65g of Squirt on the stove top or in a mug in the microwave until boiling  Add in 6g of calcium lactate, stir until dissolved.  Add all ingredients together, measuring each liquid correctly  Pour cocktail into ice molds, freeze for at least 6 hours, the longer the better  Warm the sodium alginate bath to about 120 degrees F and prepare two bowls with cold water   Drop one frozen cocktail pod into the sodium alginate bath and gently stir the water with a spoon (be careful not to touch pod with the spoon until the membrane has formed)  Pick up the pod with a slotted spoon, wipe the bottom of the spoon with a paper towel, and transfer to the first cold water bath  Rinse thoroughly by stirring the water, repeat the process rinsing the pod in a second water bath.  Enjoy!  Reyna Edmonds  Find more ideas @reyna.edmonds  Check our her podcast, Lunatic Soup  Buy her book(!), The Unauthorized Court Of Cocktails: Recipes for your Romantasies    The Art of Drinking  IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast   Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com     Join Jules  IG: @join_jules  TikTok: @join_jules   Website: joinjules.com    Uncle Brad   IG: @favorite_uncle_brad    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Here's a scenario that'll hit close to home: What do you do when you were crushing your numbers just months ago, but now you can't seem to close anything and your confidence is in the gutter? That's exactly what happened to Dhruv, a business development rep from Saint Louis. After figuring out his rhythm in Q1 and hitting strong performance numbers, he found himself in a two-month slump with low attainment and shattered confidence. If you're nodding your head right now, you're not alone. Every sales professional faces these valleys, and how you respond determines whether you bounce back stronger or spiral further down. The Confidence Crisis: When Success Breeds Complacency Dhruv's story reveals a pattern I see constantly in sales organizations. After a strong Q1, he got comfortable. His dials dropped. He thought he had it all figured out. Sound familiar? Here's the brutal truth: Success without discipline is temporary. The moment you stop following the process that got you there, you're setting yourself up for a fall. When things started going sideways in April, Dhruv did what most salespeople do—he panicked. He started questioning everything, looking for new scripts on LinkedIn, using AI to find the "perfect" approach. Everything except the one thing that would actually help: going back to basics. The Fundamentals Never Go Out of Style I told Dhruv about John Smoltz, the Cy Young Award-winning pitcher who spoke at an event I attended. Smoltz explained that when baseball players get into a slump, they start changing everything—looking for magic pills, new techniques, secret solutions. But here's what champions do differently: They go back to the fundamentals. Take Kobe Bryant. Every morning at 4 AM, he'd spend three to four hours working on the same basic skills he learned as a kid. The fundamentals that made him great in the first place. The same principle applies to fanatical prospecting. When you're in a slump, you don't need new techniques—you need to execute the proven process with precision and discipline. Process Goals vs. Outcome Goals: The Confidence Builder When your confidence is shaken, outcome goals become your enemy. Focusing on "I need to close three deals this week" when you're struggling just adds pressure and anxiety. Instead, shift to process goals: How many calls will you make today? Are you using your five-step framework consistently? Are you delivering your ledge statements with conviction? Are you following up with discipline? I shared with Dhruv my own experience from when I was 24 and going through a terrible quarter. I was so down I didn't want to come to work. Here's how I climbed out: I started with 10-minute call blocks. Call for 10 minutes, then read three pages of an inspirational sales book as a reward. Rinse and repeat. Within 30 days, I was performing well. Within 90 days, I was the number one rep in my region. The key wasn't finding a secret technique. It was trusting the process in shorter, manageable increments. The Economic Reality: When Markets Tighten, Double Down Dhruv's slump coincided with companies pulling back on spending. But here's what most reps get wrong: When markets tighten, you need to make more calls, not fewer. The prospects with budget and urgency are still out there, they're just harder to find. That means more activity, not less. More discipline, not shortcuts. This is exactly what I cover in Selling in a Crisis—when economic conditions get tough, the fundamentals become even more critical. Your Confidence Comeback Action Plan If you're in a confidence slump right now, here's your roadmap back: Stop Looking for Magic Solutions Get off LinkedIn. Stop asking AI for the perfect script. The answer isn't out there—it's in the process you already know works. Break It Down When confidence is low, work in shorter blocks. Fifteen-minute call sessions with quick wins and self-recognition for executing the p...

Sin, repent—Rinse and repeat. That was Israel's spiritual resume, and they often paid dearly for it. But sometimes, a grace-filled God raised an unexpected leader to save them. In today's message, God's first-round draft choice was a left-handed (considered a defect in Jewish culture) man named Ehud and the incredible things God did through him.

A friend was just telling me about having several family members visiting here in AK for the summer. He purchased one of those enormous water floats designed for tons of people so they could enjoy it during their stay. Towards the end of summer, the float developed a small leak but made it through their visit. Even though they had used it all summer long, the store they bought it from had a return policy stating they could still bring the float back if it was faulty, so they did. In telling me all of this, his demeanor and tone suggested feelings of guilt even though the store's return policy clearly stated they basically expected him to return the product.  This week, we are getting into God's "return policy", learning to live in His grace, His freedoms, and why we don't need to go back to living like we did before His adoption of us that Pastor Jonathan spoke about last week. Christ exchanged His life for ours and His grace for our guilt. The heartbeat of Church on the Rock is to help people discover how they can LOVE God and LOVE one another, LIVE with passion, purpose and freedom, and LEAD others to this same experience in Jesus. We simply say, “helping others Love, Live, and Lead in Jesus".

Welcome back ragers to the best movie review podcast on the planet. The rage rolls on from the Film Rage Studio. This week the Film Rage Crew went to the seventh installment of the Jurassic franchise. This time Scarlett Johansen is battling dinosaurs. Then they were treated to the surprise of the weekend, the Canadian action flick 40 Acres where Danielle Deadwyler continues to impress. And then they watched the 41st Anniversary edition of This is Spinal Tap. Did the boys enjoy it as much as the first two dozen times they saw it? Then finally Jim and Bryce were forced to watch Chuck Norris and a dog in a movie that is for nobody and leaves the boys wondering, how did this thing even get greenlit in the first place?

This week, Tom and Dylan unpack the politics, precedent, and potential fallout of a U.S. default. With Trump's past brushes with bankruptcy in focus, they ask: is this just financial brinkmanship, or something deeper?
