In this powerful message, Dr. Charles Stanley teaches that following God's will is often not a smooth or easy journey—it's a rocky road filled with challenges, testing, and moments of uncertainty. He explains that obedience to God doesn't guarantee comfort or instant success, but rather spiritual growth, character development, and deeper faith. Dr. Stanley reminds believers that God's path is designed to refine and strengthen them, not to harm them. The “rocks” along the road—disappointments, delays, and difficulties—are tools God uses to shape humility, trust, and perseverance. He urges listeners to remain steadfast, even when circumstances seem to contradict God's promises, trusting that every hardship is part of His divine preparation. Ultimately, Dr. Stanley emphasizes that walking the rocky road with faith and obedience leads to maturity, blessing, and fulfillment of God's perfect will.

Ryan Coogler's Sinners (2025) isn't just another horror movie — in fact, it might not even be horror at all. On this episode of The Two Please Podcast, we explore Sinners' haunting reflection of America's real history and culture while shining a light on its scarier real-life inspirations. This Sinners (2025) review and breakdown, discusses:Cultural theft — how Elvis and others “fed” off Black music without giving back.Vampires as metaphor — not just monsters, but symbols of exploitation and power.Racism and survival — the forces that drive the film's narrative.& Why Sinners isn't really horror — and why that makes it even scarier.If you've seen Sinners, you'll never look at vampires or Elvis Presley the same way again.

Send us a textThe Pelicans' 2024-25 schedule has arrived, and hosts Raphael and Garrick Rattler dig into what might be the NBA's toughest slate of games this season. With brutal honesty and sharp analysis, they break down how New Orleans cleverly embraced their challenging circumstances by while signaling their determination to control their own destiny.The conversation centers on the murderer's row of opponents the Pelicans face in their first ten games, including matchups against Memphis, Wembanyama's Spurs, the champion Celtics, Denver, the Clippers, and OKC. Only two nationally televised games all season reflects how the NBA views the Pelicans' relevance, but this could serve as powerful motivation for a roster featuring Zion Williamson, Herb Jones, Trey Murphy, and newcomers Jordan Poole and Sadiq Bey. The brothers highlight key schedule stretches, including emotional homecomings when Brandon Ingram and CJ McCollum return to New Orleans in March.The discussion underscores a critical message for the Pelicans' success: start strong and establish position early rather than relying on late-season heroics. With 15 back-to-backs and constant questions about Zion's availability, this team's playoff hopes hinge on consistent health and performance from the opening tip. Make sure you're locked in with us.

What does it really take to scale toward $100 million while staying aligned with your values, vision, and calling? In this candid episode of The Kelly Roach Show, Kelly pulls back the curtain on the real journey to her $100M goal: the messy pivots, crushed dreams, and the moments of divine direction that shaped her path forward. You'll hear how she went from running six companies at once with no clear “one thing” to identifying thecornerstone of her next era of growth. She shares why she walked away from the idea of scaling her high-ticket coaching model to $100M, faith-led decision-making and why she's embracing a decade-long vision instead of chasing big, immediate results. If you've ever wrestled with long-term strategy, business model decisions, or trusting the process in uncertain times, this episode is for you.

Today's episode is a special one, a powerful reminder that the Rocky Road of boxing isn't just about what happens inside the ropes, but the profound human connections forged outside them. We travelled to Drogheda to meet an extraordinary group of guests: a team of Palestinian boxers, mainly from the El Barrio club in Ramallah, who have just completed a poignant and inspiring tour of Ireland, from Waterford to Dublin and Belfast.I was privileged to sit down with their coach, Nader Jayousi, and an incredible group of boxers: Nada Al-Khawaja, Nidal Foqahaa, Zaid Shkukani, Tamer Touriman, and Shamali Adamov. We also speak with Wasem Abusal, Palestine's first Olympic boxer. We were also joined by former Irish boxer and now county councillor Eric Donovan, who welcomed them to Louth.This historic tour, organised by Shamrock & Olive Tree Boxing, is a testament to the power of sport to strengthen bonds between nations and offer hope in the face of conflict. The proceeds from their recent boxing events will go directly to two vital causes: The Lajee Center Boxing Club in the Aida Refugee Camp and the Beit Lahia Development Association, a grassroots organisation providing humanitarian support in Gaza.This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who believes in the unifying power of boxing and its ability to help heal the pain of a people.

Michael Conlan's on The Rocky Road to Dublin. Host Kevin remembers his first time seeing the precocious Belfast teenager in action at the National Stadium, sweeping to Irish senior glory in the 2011 final at 52kg on the same night when a 17-year-old Joe Ward shocked Kenneth Egan in the 81kg decider. A year later, Mick became an Olympic medallist in London and when he was named RTE Sportsperson of the Year in 2015, as reigning European and World champion, an upgrade to gold in Rio looked on the cards. At the time it also seemed like he'd morph into a Dublin mainstay when he eventually turned pro but it was not to be. Yet, as Mick says, it's better late than never, and he'll finally headline at the 3Arena on September 5 against England's Jack Bateson as he chases what would be a third world title shot. Here, we sit down with the Falls Road fighter to find out why he's so excited to box in Dublin at last as a pro, how the 13 years since London 2012 have gone by in a blink, feeling no nerves before his last fight and why that was unusual for him, being one loss away from quitting, not needing boxing anymore, why it's his opponent's world title fight coming here, and his own ambition to face one final title shot at Madison Square Garden on Paddy's weekend, 2026. After a cosy lunch in the capital, we also chew the fat with irish-boxing.com pair Joe O'Neill and Matt Meehan as we look forward to a bumper couple of weeks for the domestic scene. Hosted on Acast.

The manga follows the journey of Sawa Mitawa, a sixteen-year-old girl with severe social anxiety due to her abusive mother, as she's taken in by the next generation of Sohmas as a friend. Her bonds with Mutsuki, Hajime, Riku, and the rest of the Sohmas gradually pull her gaze up from the ground and put a smile on her face.
