Tap here to send us a message!When opposition rises and the enemy applies pressure, the call is not to draw back but to stand firm in confidence and faith. A heart that has made up its mind to follow God will remain steadfast regardless of the obstacles, fears, or battles that come its way. Victory belongs to those who refuse to retreat, choosing instead to press forward in obedience until the promises of God are fulfilled.06/12/26 - Thursday Night Scriptures: Hebrews 10:35  

In this Meaningful Money Q&A episode, Pete and Roger answer six listener questions on pensions, retirement planning and tax for a UK audience. We cover whether to put life insurance into trust, how to reduce the 60% marginal tax trap around £100k income, and whether taking a defined benefit pension early can make sense when health is a factor. Plus, we explain the Royal Mail Collective Defined Contribution (CDC) pension, share practical guidance on dealing with overseas pensions, and discuss when to take 25% tax-free cash for the best outcome. Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA51    01:36  Question 1 Hi both, I have a question relating to discretionary trusts for life insurance policies. I'm from Scotland, 37, married with 2 young children and have a life assurance policy with Vitality which is currently not in trust. I was considering putting into a trust for the benefits associated to inheritance tax but was looking to get your opinion on whether it was necessary or not, and what the pros/cons are. Thanks, Marc 05:46  Question 2 Hi Pete and Roger I am a relatively latecomer to the podcast - its been a year or so now but your work makes the complications of planning for retirement so much more understandable so thank you for bringing clarity to a very difficult subject. I have two first world questions if I may.  Neither are time critical. I am in a fortunate position.  DB pensions will kick in over the next 2 years (I am 63) totalling circa £75K pa and with the state pension at 67 it won't be very long - if tax thresholds and rates don't change - before I will be hitting the 60% effective rate.  So to delay the inevitable, I am thinking I will need to contribute to a DC pension!  As I understand it, if I have a DC scheme for three tax years and presumably contribute to such a scheme each year (say £100?) in the year I hit the £100K income, I will be able to contribute gross £3600 x 4 (so £2160 pa or £8640 in total, less any annual contributions along the way) in the first year or with care spreading that amount over 2-3 years to ease the tax burden.  I realise when the money is withdrawn it will still be taxed at my marginal rate, but maybe the 60% marginal rate will have been removed by then - I can hope!  Is that right?  Have I missed anything or are there any other techniques generally available? I am also in a position that when my wife and I both die, unless carehome fees have eaten into the estate, there will be inheritance tax to pay as our combined wealth is well over £1m and we have already given away what we reasonably can to our children.  As I understand it, inheritance tax is payable 6 months after death but all being well probate will be granted well before that so our bank accounts can be used to pay the tax (our children have financial and health powers of attorney but they are irrelevant on death).  Apart from incredibly expensive life assurance or a lifetime gift of cash for this purpose, is there anything else we can do to facilitate payment (the nature of our affairs means there's not much more we can do to mitigate the liability itself, ie the vast majority of the value is in the family home!) Many thanks, David   11:46  Question 3 Hi Roger and Pete,   First of all thank you for all the content you provide, it has been incredibly useful as I start to really take the idea of early retirement seriously.   I am 49 and looking to retire as early as financially possible as I have medical issues that mean my life expectancy is somewhat curtailed - though I plan on defying the inevitable for as long as possible.   I have a DC pension which I plan to access as soon as I stop working in hopefully 10 years' time. I also have an index-linked deferred DB pension which provides a 50% widows pension as one of the benefits.   I am torn between accessing this 6 years early (with a 25% reduction) as I start drawing from my DC pension, or delaying so that my wife is better taken care of later in life. Whatever I choose, all the projections seem to stack up that my DC pension should last into my 90s, but I'm acutely aware that I will probably want to go a bit overboard when I first retire and try to maximise travel and experiences.   My question is, am I missing something in the DB trade off?  Assuming I live a while after retiring, accessing the pension early will take a decent amount of time before we're financially worse off than we would have been if we'd waited (~13 years). However the combined loss of my state pension and the smaller DB income could leave my wife short of funds.   I would really appreciate your perspective on this scenario and anything else you think I might want to consider, many thanks again for all of your words of wisdom, Dan Meaningful Academy Retirement Planning: https://meaningfulacademy.com/retirementplanning  19:40 Question 4 Hi Pete and Roger! My partner works for Royal Mail, she is under the new starters contract and started in 2022, at which point the pension scheme was a typical defined contribution scheme with very generous contribution levels from the employer of 10% with a 6% contribution from the employee. This was 'easy' to make assumptions on for compound calculations to plan for our very far away retirement as we are both currently 27 years of age. Now this brings me to today's pension scheme, which is known as a Collective Defined Contribution plan. I'm struggling to find any information on this type of scheme as it seems to be the first of its kind in the UK, and seems to have been used for a while in the Netherlands. Now the wording of the scheme seems to be worded as if it's a Defined Benefit scheme with a lump sum being paid at retirement age and a 'Guaranteed income for life' amount being paid each month, however it has the caveat that the payout per month may decrease if investments do not perform as expected for better or for worse, so this is not a guaranteed amount at all in reality. The issue I have with this is that with a standard DC scheme like my own, if I was to die either before or during retirement, the remaining money in the pot would be inherited by my surviving spouse or if she was to pass away before I do, it would go to the next nominated beneficiary. With the Collective DC scheme, it's worded that if my partner was to die before she claimed it then I would receive the 'income for life' portion at a reduced rate of 50% and lose out on the lump sum entirely or if she was to pass away after claiming it then she would clearly receive the lump sum and I would remain to collect 50% income for life for as long as I remain alive. This seems to be very unfavourable for anyone receiving the benefit of this scheme on the whole. Now with some calculations, not using exact figures but somewhere close, I've just done some comparisons as the new Collective DC plan was sold as far and away a better option than the old DC Plan, but I cannot find a way for it to make sense. It's hard to see how this new scheme is better in any way compared to the old scheme, even if the contributions from the employer look more generous on paper. Is there something I am completely missing or misunderstanding with this new type of pension scheme? I have not seen much content online about it at all and would love for this to be featured in a podcast episode or video or even just for a chat on this matter as I feel very underwater with this. I can't seem to find a good way to factor this pension into our plan as we do plan to retire before the age of 67, this is just the age stated on the CDC scheme for payout so this is the assumption I am working with. There is an option to opt out of the CDC plan and join a regular NEST DC plan instead but this only has 4% employer contributions on top of the 5% employee giving a yearly contribution of x per year. I suppose my main gripe would be how much you would lose out on if the worst was to happen as traditionally this would remain as a pot for next of kin to inherit, however if my partner and I both passed away at age 70 (I certainly hope not!) and didn't have kids under the age of 18, the entire amount of money would be lost. This is the part I'm struggling to wrestle and the NEST pot even looks appealing with this in mind. I know the future is uncertain and we could live to 100, but the chances are relatively low. Apologies this got a bit long and ranty, I would appreciate any feedback. Keep up the amazing work and I have learned loads from your content over the years. Many Thanks, Joe 29:56 Question 5 Hi Pete and Rodger, Like many people these days, I spent part of my career working overseas. I'm now 52 and have been thinking about how best to deal with personal pensions I accrued while working abroad, in my case, in Japan and the United States (both broadly equivalent to 401(k)-type schemes). While working overseas, I didn't accrue sufficient qualifying years to receive any state pension benefits, but I did build up some company personal pension entitlements. The amounts are relatively small (less than £100k in total), which makes me question whether it's worth the time and cost of seeking formal financial advice. My UK-based pensions and ISAs are relatively straightforward and well organised, but these overseas pots feel more cumbersome by comparison. I imagine there must be many people in a similar position, holding small overseas pension pots and unsure what the most sensible approach is. From an administrative perspective, it feels as though the simplest option may be to access these pensions as soon as I reach the relevant retirement ages, rather than continuing to manage them long term. That said, I'd welcome any general thoughts or guidance on typical approaches people take in this situation, and any obvious pitfalls to be aware of. Many thanks, Lawrence Perceptive Planning - https://www.perceptiveplanning.co.uk     34:20  Question 6 58 now and both thinking of retiring at 61 with no mortgage and kids self sufficient. At age 61 we will have around £300k in savings (inc stocks n shares ISAs, cash ISAs, Premium Bonds and Bank Accounts) and between us will have around £450k in Pensions at age 67 and the wife will get a £7k a year NHS DB pension. Our idea is to live off the cash first from age 61 till age 67 to let the pension pot grow to its absolute max and then draw down the 25% tax free to add to state pension at age 67 then live off the rest at about 4% per year BUT others say take the tax free 25% before 67 because if do it at 67 it will add to the state pension taking you over the personal allowance! We want to let the pot grow more for actual retirement age of 67 onwards and leave more for the kids inheritance long term if we don't use it all so unsure what to do. For clarity, it's our intention to lump sum some money in to our pensions and ISAs in April with some of our 'available cash' and may also lump sum in to my Stocks n Shares ISA to leave it growing for say between 8 to 15 years until we need it. Any advice welcome, Steven. James Shack video on Withdrawal Strategy  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4MDvcEcHXI

K-Pop Demon Hunters is a 2025 American animated musical film. The story follows a K-Pop (Korean popular) girl group named Huntr/x, who lead double lives as demon hunters. They face off against a rival boy band, the Saja Boys, whose members are secretly demons. The film began streaming on Netflix in June 2025 and became the most watched original title in Netflix history with over 500 million views. K-Pop Demon Hunters received acclaim for its animation, visual style, voice acting, story, and music. In this sermon series, we will explore the themes of good and evil, shame, identity, and the power of community.  We hear many voices every day. Not all of the voices are good. There are evil voices, too. Our task is to discern which voice is worthy of our attention. Jesus says his sheep follow him because they know his voice. The battle of voices is a central theme for both Rumi and Jinu.  John 10:1-6 Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit.   Support the showContact Village Presbyterian Churchvillagepres.orgcommunications@villagepres.org913-262-4200Have a prayer request?  congregational-care@villagepres.orgFacebook @villagepresInstagram @villagepreschurchYouTube @villagepresbyterianchurchTo join in the mission and ministry of Village Church, go to villagepres.org/givingWe are a Presbyterian (USA) congregation located in the greater Kansas City area.

Does science lead us away from God—or toward him? In this episode of the Truth Changes Everything podcast, Rodger Price shares how a lifelong interest in science unexpectedly led him from agnosticism to Christian faith. Drawing from his book Faith and Physics Uncovered: The Compelling Relationship Between Timeless Faith and Modern Physics, Rodger explains why scientific discovery doesn't diminish belief in God but can actually deepen it. Together, we explore how the wonders of the universe raise profound questions about reality, purpose, truth, and the existence of a Creator. From the vastness of space to the mysteries of light and the nature of reality itself, Rodger shows how science can serve as a powerful bridge to conversations about faith and the gospel. In this conversation, you'll discover: • How studying science led Rodger Price from agnosticism to Christianity • Why science and faith are not enemies • What the universe reveals about God and creation • How scientific discoveries can strengthen belief in a Creator • Why the Bible's extraordinary claims may be more reasonable than many people assume • How science can help Christians engage skeptics and seekers • The relationship between truth, evidence, and faith • Why the gospel remains essential in an age of scientific advancement Rodger Price is a leadership development expert based in Holland, Michigan. Once an agnostic, he embarked on a journey through science that ultimately led him to embrace Christian faith. Today, he combines leadership training, scientific curiosity, and biblical insight to help others think more deeply about life's biggest questions. Summit Ministries equips students, parents, and mentors to embrace a biblical worldview and live out their faith with confidence. Learn more at:

California voters approved Proposition 12 by a decisive 63% margin, establishing minimum space requirements for farm animals and restricting the sale of pork, eggs, and veal produced from animals confined in spaces smaller than those standards. For pork producers, the law effectively prohibits the sale of meat from pigs born to sows housed in gestation crates that fail to meet California’s requirements. State regulators and many pork processors have maintained that California’s pork demand can be supplied under Proposition 12, although compliance costs may contribute to somewhat higher prices—much as California consumers often pay premiums for products produced under stricter standards. Opponents of Proposition 12 vowed to challenge the law all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. In 2023, however, the Court upheld the measure in a closely divided 5–4 decision.Writing for the majority, Justice Neil Gorsuch concluded that states have broad authority to regulate products sold within their borders, even when those regulations affect producers in other states. The Court rejected arguments that the Constitution’s dormant Commerce Clause bars statesfrom adopting non-discriminatory laws simply because they impose compliance costs on a national industry. While the Constitution prohibits economic protectionism, the Court held that it does not prevent voters from restricting products they believe are produced through practices they consider cruel or unethical, provided the law applies equally to in-state and out-of-state businesses.Having failed in the courts, opponents have shifted their efforts to Congress. Language included in proposed Farm Bill legislation—often referred to by supporters as the “Save Our Bacon” provision—would limit states’ ability to impose production standards on agricultural products sold within their borders. Critics argue that the provision would effectively overturn Proposition 12 and similar state laws. The debate has attracted national attention. In a New York Times opinion essay titled “America’s Livestock Gulag,” columnist Nicholas Kristof argued that “the pork industry istrying to pull a fast one with this year’s farm bill,” citing polling that found strong public opposition to housing pregnant sows in gestation crates. A common misconception is that gestation crates are necessary to prevent sows from crushing piglets. That concern is generally addressed through the use of farrowing crates, which are used for a relatively short period around birth and weaning. Gestation crates, by contrast, typically confine pregnant sows in narrow metal enclosures for their 114- day pregnancy. Many pork producers in Europe have adapted to alternative housing systemsfollowing restrictions or bans on gestation crates. The question now moves from the courtroom to Capitol Hill: Should Congress override the will of voters and the Supreme Court’s ruling through the Farm Bill, or should states retain the authority to establish animal welfare standards for products sold within their borders?For listeners seeking a broader and balanced discussion of pig housing systems, we also recommend our earlier conversation with Dr. Pete Lammers of the University of Wisconsin–Platteville, who explores the practical, economic, and animal welfare dimensions of providing space for pigs.

“A healthy community is a thick system of relationships. It is irregular, dynamic, organic, and personal. Neighbors show up to help out when your workload is heavy, and you show up when theirs is. In a rich community, people are up in one another's business, know each other's secrets, walk with each other in times of grief, and celebrate together in times of joy. In a rich community, people help raise each other's kids. In these kinds of communities, which were typical in all human history until the last sixty years or so, people extended to neighbors the sorts of devotion that today we extend only to a select few.” –David Brooks, The Second Mountain: The Quest for a Moral Life Support the showContact Village Presbyterian Churchvillagepres.orgcommunications@villagepres.org913-262-4200Have a prayer request?  congregational-care@villagepres.orgFacebook @villagepresInstagram @villagepreschurchYouTube @villagepresbyterianchurchTo join in the mission and ministry of Village Church, go to villagepres.org/givingWe are a Presbyterian (USA) congregation located in the greater Kansas City area.

“One problem with the individualistic view of the first mountain is that it traps people in the small prison of the self. If you go into marriage seeking self-actualization, you will always feel frustrated because marriage and parenting and being part of a family will constantly be dragging you away from the goals focused only on yourself. To be in relationship is a heroic quest in which the ego is sacrificed for the sake of the relationship.“ – David Brooks, “The Second Mountain” Support the showContact Village Presbyterian Churchvillagepres.orgcommunications@villagepres.org913-262-4200Have a prayer request?  congregational-care@villagepres.orgFacebook @villagepresInstagram @villagepreschurchYouTube @villagepresbyterianchurchTo join in the mission and ministry of Village Church, go to villagepres.org/givingWe are a Presbyterian (USA) congregation located in the greater Kansas City area.

“Really? You have never felt overwhelmed by, and in some way inadequate to, an experience in your life, have never felt something in yourself staking a claim beyond your self, some wordless mystery straining through words to reach you? Never? Religion is not made of these moments; religion is the means of making these moments part of your life rather than merely radical intrusions so foreign and perhaps even fearsome that you can't even acknowledge their existence afterward. Religion is what you do with these moments of over-mastery in your life.” –Christian Wiman, My Bright Abyss Support the showContact Village Presbyterian Churchvillagepres.orgcommunications@villagepres.org913-262-4200Have a prayer request?  congregational-care@villagepres.orgFacebook @villagepresInstagram @villagepreschurchYouTube @villagepresbyterianchurchTo join in the mission and ministry of Village Church, go to villagepres.org/givingWe are a Presbyterian (USA) congregation located in the greater Kansas City area.

“The thing everybody knows from finding a calling is that it's quite different from finding a career. In the calling mentality, you're not living on the ego level of your consciousness—working because the job pays well or makes life convenient. You're down in the substrate. Some activity or some injustice has called to the deepest level of your nature and demanded an active response.” –David Brooks, The Second Mountain: The Quest for a Moral LifeWe are one church worshiping each Sunday at two locations: Mission Campus in Prairie Village and Antioch Campus in south Overland Park.

If you've ever struggled with photographing your jewelry—or wondered if it might be time to invest in professional images—this conversation is going to give you a lot to think about.Today I'm joined by jewelry photographer Cole Rodger, whose work many artists in our industry trust to bring their pieces to life. Cole didn't start out planning to photograph jewelry, but through years of experience in both photography and running her own product-based business, she's developed a deep understanding of what it takes to create images that not only look beautiful… but actually help sell the work. In this conversation, Cole shares what goes into creating strong, impactful images—and why photography is often one of the most overlooked (and misunderstood) parts of an artist's business.We talk about when it makes sense to invest in professional photography, how different types of images serve different purposes, and what artists can do right now to improve their own photos at home.This is one of those episodes that can shift how you see your work—and how you present it to the world.Follow Along:Cole on Instagram: ⁠@coleimage & @colerodgerimageCole's Website: coleimage.comLove the Podcast?Support an episode: ⁠Click here to learn more!⁠Without your support I couldn't continue the Slowmade Podcast.

Writer David Brooks' concept of the “Second Mountain” speaks to a profound spiritual truth: that our lives are a journey from being centered on oneself to being centered on living in a way that creates a better world for everyone. The first mountain is self-centered. The second mountain is centered on a life committed to others. In this sermon series, Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka will explore God's call to us to move from the first to the second mountain. Brooks says we achieve the second mountain through four commitments: commitment to calling, family, faith, and community.

Rodger Shanahan joins John Anderson to examine the true objectives behind U.S. and Israeli military action against Iran. Is this about preventing a nuclear capability, dismantling Iran's proxy network, or ultimately forcing regime change? Shanahan argues that while public messaging has been inconsistent, the rhetoric and targeting patterns increasingly point toward regime change — a strategic ambition with a poor historical record when pursued through air power alone.The discussion unpacks Iran's ideological foundations, its history of foreign intervention, the erosion of its “forward defence” strategy, and the real limits of military precision in shaping political outcomes. From contested nuclear claims to the future of the rules-based order, this is a sober, strategic assessment of whether the world will emerge safer — or more unstable.Rodger Shanahan is a non-resident fellow at the Lowy Institute specialising in Middle East security and strategic affairs. He holds a PhD in Arab and Islamic Studies from the University of Sydney and is a former Australian Army officer with operational deployments to Lebanon, Syria, Afghanistan and East Timor, as well as diplomatic postings to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. He has also served as an expert witness in more than 30 Australian terrorism cases.

This week on Oil & Whiskey, Rodger Lee of Ironworks Speed & Kustom is back for his third time on the show and it's a solid catch-up on what's happening in the shop world right now.We talk hot rods, custom cars, shop life, and the stuff nobody sees: managing the work, managing the people, and keeping the business moving while still building at a high level. Rodger shares real-world perspective on running a custom car shop, how the industry's shifting, what's working (and what isn't), and the mindset it takes to stay consistent over the long haul.We also get into what Rodger's been doing on the business education side — including his business development classes designed to help builders and shop owners tighten up their process, pricing, scheduling, and overall business structure.If you're into Ironworks Speed & Kustom, custom car building, hot rod shops, or you're trying to learn how to run a better operation behind the scenes, this episode is for you.Grab official Oil & Whiskey gear at oilandwhiskey.com.

The Rachel Zoe Project, Season 1, Episode 5This week, Princess is talking Rachel crying, Rodger's ridiculous hair, and what to do when your uncle dies during Oscar week.

Amy Phillips is joined by Deanna Cheng. They open with the news that Jill Zarin was quickly removed from the E! RHONY reboot after a social media backlash, with Dorinda Medley brought in soon after. They also note Luann posting a reward for her missing cabaret hat. The episode then shifts to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, focusing on Rachel Zoe's return, her tense-but-efficient team dynamic, and her storyline framing her marriage issues with Rodger, which the hosts say resonates with Dorit's situation with PK. They dig into the confusing claims about whether PK texted Dorit (including a finances spreadsheet) and Dorit's sit-down with Mauricio, which they felt turned confrontational and left key questions unresolved. They cover the Hamptons trip setup, behind-the-scenes exhaustion before travel, and Zoe's jabs at Kyle. The hosts react strongly to Erika criticizing Amanda Francis as a “scam,” defend Amanda's Barbie dream narrative and self-publishing, and argue she's misreading the room by trying to “teach” the group through her manifestation party. They highlight standout moments like Rachel Zoe's sister Pamela appearing, Donna Karan visiting and sharing early-career kindness toward Zoe, and Zoe referencing Michael Kors. They close by hoping Zoe's return doesn't backfire, teasing that Beverly Hills is about to get even better, and promoting Deanna's How to Be Less Old Substack/podcast and her montage work.DAME Get 20% off your site wide! https://dame.com/ Promo Code: DRAMAONE SKIN Get 15% off OneSkin, go to: https://www.oneskin.co/ Code: DRAMA HONEYLOVE Get 20% OFF Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/DRAMA Promo Code: DRAMAHERS puts your health and goals first. forhers.com/dramaFor more Drama, Darling, and exclusive content, subscribe to: http://Patreon.com/dramadarling Follow Drama, Darling on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dramadarlingshow/   Email Drama, Darling with YOUR comments, questions and drama:  DramaDarlingz@gmail.com Follow Amy Phillips on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dramadarlingshow/   MERCH Drama Darling Shop https://drama-darling-shop.printify.me/
