Positivity is at the heart of any kind of success. A desire to succeed, paired with a positive mindset, good friends, and hard work, can create momentum and growth in any direction you choose. On this episode of The Unfinished Print, a Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with Michael Verne, a gallerist specializing in Japanese prints and paintings. Michael shares his approach to success, the power of positivity in business, and how he navigates the ups and downs of running a small, focused gallery. Through rich stories, both his own and those of the artists he represents, Michael offers insight into how storytelling shapes his business, sustains its growth, and supports educating people about mokuhanga and Japanese art.

Humanity's earliest hominid upright walking ancestors were arboreal, tree dwellers, descending from the safety of trees to forage diverse, patchy environments with wetlands, forests, palm groves, and grass-rich areas, offering a range of resources from arboreal, terrestrial, and aquatic habitats. This ecological diversity likely supported an opportunistic lifestyle, requiring adaptability to both ground and tree-based living. The systematic hunting of large animals arose with the advent of group cooperation along with the forging of sticks and stones into weapons capable of felling prey much bigger, stronger, and quicker than their individual selves. When these proto-human ancestors were under threat themselves, they scurried back to the safety of the trees, their sanctuary from predation.

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for June 29, 2025. Today's devotion from Ecclesiastes 12:1–5, titled “Remember Your Creator in Youth,” calls us to anchor our faith in God early, before the challenges of aging make it harder to trust and rejoice. Solomon's vivid images of decline remind us that youth is a gift to be used wisely, nurturing a life of worship and dependence on the Lord. Rooted in Lutheran, Christ-centered teaching, this devotion offers hope through Jesus Christ, who knows our frailty and redeems every stage of life. Whether you are young, aging, or caring for the elderly, this message will strengthen your faith and encourage you to remember your Creator daily.

Rooted - Week 3 June 29, 2025 4 Points Church Pastor Russ Chambers

Welcome to Daily Devotion with Pastor Balla for June 28, 2025. Today's devotion from Ecclesiastes 11:7–10, titled “The Gift of Youth,” explores how Scripture views youth as a precious but fleeting blessing. Solomon encourages rejoicing in the strength and joy of youth while remembering that God will bring all things into judgment. This message challenges our culture's idolization of youth, urging instead a faithful and responsible stewardship of life's early years. Rooted in Lutheran, Christ-centered teaching, this devotion reminds us that Jesus Himself sanctified youth by living it perfectly, giving meaning and purpose to every age. Whether you are young or reflecting on your younger days, this devotion will encourage you to live boldly under God's grace and truth.

In this episode, we unpack the Latin line by line, revealing biblical echoes, theological depth, and how even the simplest prayer can draw us into divine intimacy and gratitude.

Parents in the 21st century are particularly burdened by the sense that they don't have time to do all that needs to be done. Ask any parent-friend of yours how they are and they're likely to say: “busy.” With all the things we try to provide for our kids- school, piano lessons, soccer, playdates, time with extended family- and, oh yeah, by the way, church… it all feels like too much. In this episode, Cameron and Anna explore what God's Word tells us about the gift of time, and how we can learn to steward it wisely.  Luke 12:16-21Psalm 90:12Ecclesiastes 3:1-14A Time to Hold Close and a Time to Let Go by Meredith ExlineFull Schedules and Family Bible Time Can Coexist by Joey TurnerRedeeming the Time by Vanessa DoughtyFollow us @rootedministry!

In part two of our conversation with Jessica Rivers, we dive deeper into the battle for significance and the lies the enemy uses to distract us—especially through comparison and the constant noise of the world. As women, it's easy to get caught up in measuring ourselves against others or numbing out through endless scrolling. Jessica shares wisdom on how to stay focused on God's voice and the importance of guarding who we allow to speak into our lives. What distractions is the enemy using to pull your eyes away from truth?

A local activist group, Rooted in Littleton, recently conducted a survey of more than 1,000 Littleton voters about housing density — and found that 49% of those polled think the city is in a housing shortage. But that same survey found that more than half of respondents oppose increasing housing density. Kyle Schlachter, the mayor of Littleton, took the survey himself, and has a lot of thoughts about preserving the charm of Littleton while making sure people have access to housing. He joins host Bree Davies to talk about the city's current approach to “gentle density”, what could happen if Rooted in Littleton's current petition to change land use makes it to the ballot in November, and what the effect of “protecting single family residential zoning” could have on the future of this suburb.For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.Follow us on Instagram: @citycastdenverChat with other listeners on reddit: r/CityCastDenverSupport City Cast Denver by becoming a member: membership.citycast.fmWhat do you think?

In this workshop from the 2024 Rooted conference in Dallas, veteran youth leader Vince Greenwald shares the essential values of the church, and the youth ministry where he serves. While acknowledging that what students need, more than anything, everytime they gather, is the gospel. But the additional elements of offering a safe environment- defined as “every student needs a place where they can stop trying to be impressive and start being known” - and time allow students to flourish in the manner and timeline the Lord has decreed. Stay tuned for his six questions at the end to help you discern if the gospel, safety, and time are central values in your ministry to teenagers.Vince Greenwald serves an assistant pastor at Immanuel Church Nashville and holds a MA in Biblical and Theological Studies from Covenant Theological Seminary. He and his wife Caroline live in Nashville, Tennessee with their children Bear, Lila, and Grace. Vince seeks to joyfully follow Jesus and serve the Church with Caroline, bringing students and their families along with them.Romans 1:161 Corinthians 3:61 John 1:7Rooted Resources:What Is Gospel-Centered Youth Ministry? by Chelsea Kingston EricksonThe Slow Process of Growth by Josh HussungThe Long, Slow Work of Gospel Formation by Kendal ConnorDepend, Believe, and Obey: Unleashing the Power of the Gospel by Dave HartGospel Catechisms for Young Children and TeenagersFollow @therootedministry on Instagram for more updates Register for Rooted 2025 Conference in Chicago Follow @therootedministry on Instagram for more updates andSubscribe to Youth Ministry Unscripted wherever you listen to podcasts

Every seed will produce more of its own kind of plant.' And it happened. The earth produced plants with grain for seeds and trees that made fruits with seeds in them. Each seed grew its own kind of plant. God saw that all this was good. Evening passed, and morning came. This was the third day.” Genesis 1:11-13 (NCV)“Then God said to the man, ‘You listened to what your wife said, and you ate fruit from the tree from which I commanded you not to eat.‘So I will put a curse on the ground, and you will have to work very hard for your food.In pain you will eat its food all the days of your life.The ground will produce thorns and weeds for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.'” Genesis 3:18 (NCV)“‘We are allowed to do all things,' but not all things are good for us to do. ‘We are allowed to do all things,' but not all things help others grow stronger.” 1 Corinthians 10:23 (NCV)“I will not set before my eyes anything that is worthless…” Psalm 101:3a (ESV)“So be very careful how you live.

Today, we're diving into one of the most urgent and complex challenges of our time: how to truly and equitably mitigate climate change, starting in the heart of the Amazon rainforest. This conversation spans a web of critical themes: climate finance, cutting-edge technologies, and most importantly, putting Indigenous communities at the forefront of protecting and restoring the planet's most vital ecosystems.Joining us is the brilliant Dr. Tracey Osborne, a professor at UC Merced and the Founding Director of the UC Center for Climate Justice. Tracey is also the visionary behind the Climate Justice Standard, a bold new framework that ensures climate solutions aren't just environmentally sound, but also socially just and community-led.Together, we unpack the Amazon's pivotal role in global climate stability, explore the promises and pitfalls of carbon markets, and hear how Tracey's firsthand work in the rainforest has reshaped her understanding of justice, resilience, and what it really means to live in balance with nature.Show NotesThe Climate Justice StandardUC Center for Climate JusticeAbout the Kawsay Nampi Project About Dr. Tracey OsborneTragedy of the commonsDr. Elinor OstromKeywords: climate change, indigenous communities, carbon markets, climate justice, Amazon rainforest, deforestation, environmental integrity, community-led projects, technology in climate solutions, youth engagementBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

Too much? Not enough? Exactly the right amount? How much joy would you say you experience in your life right now?“Biblical joy and a life of joy comes about when we sense in our nearness to God that he is good and that that will never change.

Jesus says, “follow me,” and we, just like the people in this text, respond with, “I will follow you wherever you go.” But. Let me go and bury my father. Let me first say farewell to those at my home. My kid has another tournament this Sunday. I can't afford to give to the church this month. I can't bring up religion to my family, I wouldn't know what to say. We all say we follow Jesus, but we have a lot of “buts.” Sarah Stenson is here to teach us that this text is holding the mirror up to our idols, and replacing them with Jesus' promise. CARE OF SOULS - ADDICTIONIn Care of Souls, a special mini-series podcast from Luther House of Study, Lutheran pastors and theologians come together to explore the deeply personal and pastoral task of preaching to and caring for those struggling with life's challenging situations: addiction, death, family disharmony, and more. Rooted in the theology of the cross and the Lutheran tradition of radical grace, this series offers both theological depth and practical guidance for pastors, church workers, and lay leaders. With conversations, real-life stories, and reflections from the front lines of ministry, Care of Souls equips listeners to enter the broken places of addiction not with easy answers, but with the crucified and risen Christ. Because in the end, it's not about fixing people—it's about preaching the Gospel. Listen to Care of Souls wherever you listen to podcasts or on the Luther House website: Care of Souls - Addiction SING TO THE LORD Martin Luther said, "Next to the word of God, the art of music is the greatest treasure in the world." To understand the importance of hymnody in the Lutheran church, Lars Olson and Mason Van Essen sit down with Zachary Brockhoff to discuss the lectionary's hymns, their meaning and history, and how the music preaches the Gospel. 

Send us a textWelcome to Week 4 of the Soul Care Challenge!Let's get rooted in who God says you are. This episode is all about dismantling the lies we've believed and anchoring our worth in our identity as daughters of God. You are chosen, known, and loved — period.Anchor verse: “You are a chosen people… God's special possession.” – 1 Peter 2:9

Shalom—“the way things ought to be”—is the foundation for understanding God's design for sexuality. Rooted in the self-giving nature of the Trinity, sex within marriage reflects a sacred rhythm of connection, strength, and vulnerability. But this gift is often attacked and distorted by the enemy through shame, lies, and brokenness. Still, Jesus redeems even our sexuality, offering healing and renewal. Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians 7 calls couples to mutual joy, responsibility, and honor in their sexual union—not as a transaction, but as covenantal love. Ultimately, sex points to the self-giving love of Christ, who restores what is broken and renews our covenant through His sacrifice.

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine where we place our trust. The central passage, Jeremiah 17:5-8, presents a stark contrast between those who trust in man and those who trust in the Lord. We're reminded that relying on our own strength or the approval of others often leads to spiritual drought and isolation. However, when we fully trust in God, we become like trees planted by streams, flourishing even in difficult times. This imagery beautifully illustrates the peace and fruitfulness that come from a life rooted in faith. The message encourages us to reflect on areas where we might be turning away from God and instead invites us to lean completely on His wisdom and strength. It's a call to surrender our self-reliance and embrace the blessings that come from trusting God with every aspect of our lives.

God at Work: The Practice of Peace in an Unstable World - Rev. Donnell T. Wyche - a2vc.org. Like us on fb.com/vineyardannarboror watch our livestream Sundays @ 10:45am - vimeo.com/annarborvineyard  Summary: In this powerful sermon, Pastor Donnell Wyche invites the community to consider what it means to be a peacemaker in a world marked by instability, injustice, and unpredictability. Rooted in Romans 12:18—“If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone”—the message challenges simplistic or false notions of peace. Pastor Donnell reminds us that real peace is not about avoidance, politeness, or keeping quiet; it is an active, justice-rooted, and costly way of living that reflects God's heart for wholeness and dignity. Drawing on both scripture and lived experience, Pastor Donnell explores how peace requires posture, participation, and power-awareness. He names the pain of being misunderstood, dismissed, or gaslit, and affirms that some people or systems may not want peace at all. Even so, Christians are called to be people of peace, not doormats. Peace, he emphasizes, should never come at the expense of truth or dignity, and peacemaking may require letting go, speaking up, or even walking away from harmful situations. The sermon closes with practical wisdom for living peaceably: stay grounded in God's story, find beauty and stillness, engage scripture deeply, and lean into community. Even when efforts at peace seem to fail, God is present in the trying, the awkwardness, and the tears. God is at work in us and through us—right in the messy, faithful practice of peacemaking.

It's likely you've had a loved one taken captive by philosophy and empty deceit —lies often disguised by other names. In Week 4 of our "Christ Over All" series, Steven walks us through Colossians 2:6-8 to highlight the enemy's process, describes in detail some specific philosophies (lies) that are used, and then outlines a path we can take to fight against them by making sure that our roots are growing deeply in Christ, not in the world, so that we aren't taken captive.

In this episode of The Electorette, host Jen Taylor-Skinner speaks with Jessica Fulton, senior fellow with the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, about the 2025 budget bill—rebranded by conservatives as the "Big Beautiful Bill"—and the devastating consequences it could have for Black households. Rooted in the Joint Center's policy brief, Centering Black Households in the 2025 Tax Debate, the conversation exposes how proposals like extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act would continue to funnel wealth to high-income, disproportionately white households—while offering temporary, shallow benefits to working-class families. Jessica explains how policies that sound equitable on the surface—like tax deductions for tipped workers, child tax credits, and overtime exemptions—actually reinforce economic exclusion. Together, they explore how tax policy has long been used as a tool of racialized wealth-building and why understanding these “wonky” details is essential to building a more equitable economy. They also touch on the dangers of cutting Pell Grants, dismantling agencies that support Black-owned businesses, and using budget reconciliation to pass policies that will have generational consequences. This episode is a powerful call for greater transparency, stronger advocacy, and inclusive policymaking that truly supports all families—not just the wealthiest. Episode Chapters: (00:00) Tax Code, Wealth, and Racial Inequality The Federal Tax Code perpetuates racial inequality, with implications for Black households, through policies like the 2025 Budget Bill. (12:23) Tax Policy and Racial Disparities Changes to child tax credit privilege higher-income households, exclude poorest families, and perpetuate systemic inequities. (23:56) Tax Policy and Worker Income Nature's financial burdens on low-income workers, tax treatment of tips and overtime pay, and erosion of worker protections. (27:28) Tax Policies and Working Class Disadvantages Tax policies can privilege certain workers, have political motivations, and create disparities between demographic groups. (39:47) Tax Code and Racial Disparities Examining how race affects taxation and economic disparities, and the importance of understanding and challenging these systems.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Deevo, known as The Brand Storyteller, for a no-fluff, high-clarity conversation on branding that resonates. Together, they unpack the myths around logos, color palettes, and surface-level marketing to get to the heart of real brand building: identity. Deevo shares how emotional alignment—not just visibility—builds trust and turns audiences into loyal communities. Whether you're a new entrepreneur or scaling a 7-figure venture, this episode shows why clarity beats complexity and why your brand starts long before your marketing does. About the Guest: Deevo is a brand architect, speaker, retreat leader, and host of The Branding Lab Podcast. With years of experience coaching leaders, creatives, and entrepreneurs, he helps clients ditch performance-based branding for something more magnetic: a bold, identity-led brand built on clarity, not comparison. Known for his unapologetic voice and strategic depth, Deevo is a trusted name in helping businesses and individuals stand out with purpose. Key Takeaways: Branding isn't logos—it's alignment between who you are and how the world experiences you. Clarity before visibility: Messaging without self-awareness leads to noise, not traction. Emotional connection is the true power of a brand—resonance over relevance. Your audience aligns with identity, not imitation. Boldness attracts the right people. Self-audits and mindset shifts—like prioritizing growth over perfection—are the real first steps.

Michael dives into the Gullah language, recently recognized as a distinct linguistic heritage spoken by over 250,000 people in South Carolina's Lowcountry. Rooted in African and Caribbean traditions, Gullah isn't just a dialect—it's a cultural treasure that's slowly fading without active preservation.Michael shares why Gullah has often been misunderstood or dismissed, and how institutions like the Smithsonian and Harvard are working to document and study it. He also reflects on today's generational divides and expresses deep concern for the future of young African-American males.The episode concludes with personal stories of family, legacy, and love. Michael speaks candidly about what motivates him: his grandchildren and the desire to leave behind more than wealth—something deeply human and irreplaceable.This is more than an interview—it's a tribute to heritage, love, and purpose. ✅ Top 3 Highlights:
