In this conversation with Dr. Marc Brackett, founder and director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, Karena explores the science of emotional regulation, the RULER framework (Recognizing, Understanding, Labeling, Expressing, and Regulating emotions), and why traditional approaches to handling feelings often fail. Dr. Brackett shares his personal story of childhood trauma, discusses the unique challenges men face with emotional expression, and provides practical strategies for dealing with grief, anxiety, and everyday emotional overwhelm.How do you actually deal with your feelings instead of suppressing them—and why is emotional intelligence the key to better mental health, relationships, and longevity?Understanding how to regulate your emotions isn't about fixing or judging them—it's about building the vocabulary and tools to recognize, understand, and work with what you're feeling.(01:23) The RULER Framework & Navigating Grief Without JudgmentHow to be present for others during loss while protecting your own well-beingBecoming an "emotion scientist vs. emotion judge" during difficult timesEmotionally intelligent time travel: recognizing temporary circumstances and taking space when needed(07:18) Why Men Are Drowning in Suppressed Emotions & The Uncle Marvin StoryGender differences in emotional expression are socialized, not biologicalHow "toughen up" culture teaches boys to deny and suppress feelingsDr. Brackett's childhood sexual abuse, bullying, and why suppression creates emotional debt(15:42) From Trauma to Yale: Building Emotional Vocabulary & Understanding AnxietyHow childhood pain sparked Dr. Brackett's career researching emotional intelligenceWhy precise emotional vocabulary mattersBuilding emotional granularity to better understand your internal state(27:35) Realistic Optimism, Toxic Positivity & Six Strategies for Dealing With FeelingsWhy "everything will be fine" is dangerousLearn to deactivate your nervous system through meditation and breathworkThe biology of regulation: sleep, nutrition, and movement directly impact your ability to manage emotions(38:46) The Dealing With Feeling Wheel: Monthly Check-Ins for Emotional HealthMonitoring self-talk, breathing practices, reflection, and social connectionAssessing sleep quality, nutrition habits, and movement patternsWhy all these elements work together for mental health and longevityYou Are Note Alone, Try These Resources to Find Support:Text HELLO to 741741 to connect with a Crisis Counselor.

Join host David Watson for a candid and wide-ranging conversation with his returning guest, author Martin R. Nelson. In this episode, they tackle everything from the universal comfort of cookies and milkshakes to the heavy burdens of self-doubt and financial struggle. Martin opens up about his hectic life juggling a full-time teaching job, a move, and a second child on the way, all while promoting his latest high-fantasy novel, The Culling of Souls, the sequel to Children of the Dying Hearth. He shares the profound themes of his Annals of Tessian series, exploring how characters must leave their comfort zones and "cull their souls" to grow. The discussion then pivots to the harsh realities of the creative world. Martin and David have a raw and honest talk about the challenges of indie publishing, the feeling of creating for an empty stadium, and the constant battle with the question: "What will people think?" They also dive into broader societal issues, touching on the housing market, the paradox of tolerance, and the state of free speech and politics in the UK and beyond. This is a must-watch for aspiring authors, fantasy fans, and anyone who has ever questioned their own worth or path in life.

Sir Michael Jenks & Mark "The Mark" are bringing royalty back to wrestling podcasts, unlike WWE with the Royal Rumble!! Nope! That is a lie...it's a FAFO episode of Can Crushers! What surprised the guys during WWE's latest PLE? Who are they keeping their eye on in AEW? Do they still "Believe" in NXT and so much more!!WWE ShopCan Crushers Merch Store
Have you grasped the concept that God is masterful all by Hisself!! Therefore He had Jesus already in mind when creating Adam and Eve. Jesus was always the solution! He was always the Vindicator, Justifier, and Sacrifice!! It was nothing we could do or deserve. Because truth is we don't deserve the grace or mercy but I pray you bask in it! Let it overwhelmingly overtake you. Because we are filthy and need a Savior!! But don't let Jesus just be Savior let Him be your Ruler too.

“GOD, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; 3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right and of the Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.” Hebrews 1:1-4 “Hebrews is basically a book that encourages [exhorts] discouraged Christians to continue on strong with Jesus in light of the complete superiority of who He is and what He did for us.”- David Guzik. The messenger vs. the message “Are they (angels) not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” Hebrews 1:14. “GOD, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets…” the message > the messengerChrist is not another messenger. He is the message“GOD, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son” Hebrews 1:1-2. “The Bible is the record of the different places and different ways by which God has spoken to man. In the book of Genesis, we find God speaking to man by angels; they were the messengers…then God began to speak through anointed men such as Moses and Joshua…. Then God spoke to them through priests…then as time progressed God raised up prophets…But God's final revelation was given to man through Jesus Christ. Jesus came to bring man the final, the ultimate message of God. The ultimate understanding of God. So, all that man is to know about God can be discovered in and through Jesus Christ. This revelation is superior than all of the other revelations. His revelation through the Son is superior than the revelation through the angels.”- Chuck Smith.“39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me.” John 5:39“It isn't so much that Jesus brought a message from the Father; He is a message from the Father. He has revealed something no other prophet could”- David Guzik. “(Jesus)who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they” Hebrews 1:3-4“He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born over-all creation.16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.” Colossians 1:15-18. Preeminent: surpassing all others; having the highest rank, importance or excellence. Gnosticism: salvation comes through special, hidden knowledge.Agnostic: without knowledge.

In this episode, host Stephanie Rice shares information about the origins of Ancient Egyptian kingship during the Predynastic period.Discover the real archaeological evidence of two different rulers known as King Scorpion that inspired the Scorpion King from The Mummy franchise. But unlike the cinematic portrayal, the real kings didn't amass and sustain their power through military conquest.Explore the Tomb of Scorpion I at Abydos which was filled with imported wine, lapis lazuli, and the first evidence of writing in Egypt. Learn about the ceremonial Scorpion Macehead that depicts Scorpion II planting crops.Together, their stories reveal that Egypt's first kings built their power through prosperity, order, and the sacred duty to sustain life not through warfare.TranscriptsFor transcripts of this episode head over to: https://archpodnet.com/tpm/30Works CitedBard, Kathryn A.

The Seven Attributes of Jesus (Christology 1)Big Idea: Jesus Christ is not just a chapter in the story of God; He is the Author, the Hero, and the Ending. When we see Jesus for who He truly is, every other priority in our lives finds its proper place.Today we begin a nine-week journey through the Book of Hebrews, a letter written to magnify the greatness of Jesus Christ. Hebrews isn't primarily about religious rules, moral improvement, or spiritual techniques. It's about Jesus—who He is and what He has done. Everything else flows from that foundation.The original audience was likely Jewish Christians living under Roman rule, facing intense persecution. As pressure mounted, many were tempted to abandon their faith in Jesus and return to the familiarity and safety of traditional Judaism. Hebrews speaks directly into that tension with one clear message: Jesus is greater than anyone or anything that came before Him. To walk away from Him would be to walk away from the fulfillment of all God's promises.The author of Hebrews remains anonymous, one of the great mysteries of the New Testament. While Paul may have influenced it, the writing style is far more polished and rhetorically sophisticated than Paul's letters. Hebrews chapter 1 proves this immediately. Verses 1–4 form a single, majestic sentence in the original Greek—an exordium, designed to grab attention with both beauty and weight.Hebrews 1:1–4 (NLT) sets the stage:“Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son…”In the Old Testament, God spoke in fragments—a dream here, a burning bush there, a prophet's warning along the way. But in Jesus, God didn't just send messages; He sent the Message. This is Christology—the study of the person and work of Jesus Christ—and Hebrews wastes no time getting to the point.In verses 2–3, the author unleashes a rapid-fire description of Jesus using seven distinct attributes. In Scripture, the number seven represents completeness and perfection. Together, these form a full portrait of the Son.Jesus is the Heir—the goal of history. God has promised everything to Him as an inheritance. History is not random; it is moving toward the coronation of King Jesus. He is the “why” behind all creation.Jesus is the Creator—the architect of reality. Through Him, God made the universe. Jesus is not a created being; He is the source of all things. Nothing exists apart from His will.Jesus is the Radiance—the shining glory of God. He doesn't merely reflect God's glory like the moon reflects sunlight; He radiates it. The Son is the visible manifestation of the invisible God—“Light from Light.”Jesus is the Expression—the exact imprint of God's nature. The Greek word charaktēr refers to a stamp or seal. Jesus doesn't resemble God; He perfectly represents Him. To see Jesus is to see God.Jesus is the Sustainer—the glue of the cosmos. He holds everything together by the power of His word. The universe doesn't persist on autopilot; it endures because Jesus commands it to.Jesus is the Savior—the cleanser of sin. When He purified us from our sins, the work was finished. Unlike Old Testament priests who never sat down, Jesus completed the work once for all.Finally, Jesus is the Ruler—the seated King. He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven, a position of total authority. The victory is won.Hebrews 1:4 reminds us that Jesus is far greater than angels, traditions, or anything else we might be tempted to trust. For believers facing hardship, this truth re-centers everything.The message of Hebrews is clear:...

Greg Jenner is joined in ancient Rome by Professor Mary Beard and comedian and actor Patton Oswalt to learn all about Emperor Nero. Nero has gone down in history as one of Rome's most infamous rulers – the villain in any number of films and television programmes, and the man who fiddled while the eternal city burned. He was also emperor during a number of momentous moments in the history of ancient Rome, including the revolt in Britain led by Iceni warrior queen Boudica. But does he deserve his notorious posthumous reputation? This episode explores the man and the myth, examining Nero's complicated path to the imperial throne, his relationship with famous philosopher Seneca the Younger, his murderous behaviour towards the women in his life, and the numerous plots that swirled around him. Along the way, we take a look at the more ridiculous moments in Nero's life, including the athletic games he founded, the festival to himself that he instituted, and his numerous dramatic appearances on the stage. If you're a fan of evil emperors, political plots and the bloody history of Ancient Rome, you'll love our episode on Nero. If you want more from Patton Oswalt, listen to our episode on the American War of Independence. And for more Roman history, check out our episodes on Agrippina the Younger, Boudica, and the Rise of Julius Caesar. You're Dead To Me is the comedy podcast that takes history seriously.

My mother was born in Bethlehem, Palestine, a land where hospitality is not sentiment, not a virtue to be cultivated, but obedience. It is not taught, debated, or defended. It is enacted. The land itself bears witness to a scriptural way of life that precedes institutions, borders, and claims of authority. The earth remembers what human beings forget. It remembers what it means to live under decree rather than under ownership.Scripture itself is formed by this memory. It speaks in a Semitic grammar in which unity precedes sequence and must never harden into possession. Genesis opens not with “the first day,” but with yom eḥad, one day. Creation does not begin with order imposed over time, but with a complete, bounded unity named before anything is divided or accumulated. Wholeness precedes sequence. Unity precedes control.Arabic preserves this same grammar. Like Biblical Hebrew, Arabic counting does not begin with an ordinal. One says yawm wāḥid, one day, not “the first day.” Ordinals only begin with “second,” al-yawm al-thānī. Linguistically, “one” does not mark position. It marks unity, closure, and intelligibility. Only once unity is given can differentiation follow. Counting does not produce wholeness. It presupposes it.This is not a linguistic curiosity. It is a refusal written into the language itself. Scripture does not allow the world to be treated as an object assembled piece by piece. The land is first named as a whole before it is ever divided. Life is first declared worthy before it is ever administered. Unity is given, not achieved.That is why in that land, people did not write treatises on coexistence. They did not construct ethical systems to justify themselves. They lived. They lived because Scripture was never an abstraction. It was not an idea to be mastered but a Command to be obeyed. Hospitality was not a moral accomplishment but a reflex, the uncalculated response of those who know that they are not masters. The outsider is received not because one has reasoned it to be good, but because this is what life looks like on land that belongs to someone else.Israel in the Scriptural text is itself constituted according to this same grammar. Twelve is not a governing structure but a symbolic totality, the whole addressed by God for a purpose. The Twelve in the Gospels function the same way. They do not rule. They signify. They address Israel as a whole, not as an institution to be preserved. Once that address has been made, unity is not hardened into continuity. It is released.Paul's mission embodies this release. What was gathered symbolically is carried outward. Election is not converted into ownership. Unity is not turned into administration. It is sent, so that the nations may be addressed.Scripture consistently contrasts this covenantal unity with another numerical grammar. The nations appear as ten, the number of human totality, the fullness of empire and power. Ten names what human beings claim when they totalize, when they consolidate, when they rule. Scripture does not resolve history by allowing twelve to rule ten. It resolves history by confronting ten through twelve, by addressing power without becoming power.God alone remains uncounted and undissolved, because God is not one element within the sequence. God is the unity that makes all counting possible. God is not the first proprietor among others. God is the only Proprietor.That is why what happened in Gaza was wrong. Not because one group could assemble better arguments about history or entitlement. It was wrong because mothers and children were killed. This is not political speech. It is witness. The decree that rendered the land worthy is the same decree that rendered every life upon it worthy. To violate that life is not to offend an ideology but to profane what was entrusted. Those who claimed the land while denying the life upon it testified against themselves. They forgot the one thing Scripture never negotiates.There is only one Proprietor.Scripture arose to interrupt such forgetting. When kings enthrone themselves and devour, when power names itself necessity, when land is reduced to possession rather than received as inheritance, Scripture speaks. It does not bargain. It does not flatter. It calls heaven and earth to witness. The land does not belong to those who conquer it, nor to those who administer it, nor to those who explain it away. It belongs to the One who provides it. Everything that breathes upon it is under his protection, whether rulers approve or not.There is only one Ruler.Those who lived there knew this without commentary or defense. When neighbors arrived from Europe, speaking other tongues and carrying other memories, the question was never whether they had a right to be there. They came. They were received. Some remained. That was not the transgression. The transgression came when the memory of Scripture was erased by claims of ownership, when inheritance was renamed possession, when sovereignty displaced obedience.I was born in St. Paul, Minnesota. I am not formed by charters, statutes, or arrangements of power. What governs my path is older and heavier than law. My neighbor is not determined by documents but by encounter. Those who have come to this place, as others once came to the land of my mother's birth, are my neighbors because they have been placed in my path by him and because they walk upon land that is not mine. This land too belongs to the same Proprietor. And because he has deemed it worthy, all who dwell upon it are worthy, whether they are welcomed or rejected, named or erased.By his decree, I am a Minnesotan, just as surely as all who dwell herein, every fragile life bearing the terrible gift of his living breath.Hear the word of the Lord. Every encounter is a divine summons. The mother. The child. The worker who serves your food. The one who teaches God's children. Do not deceive yourself. It is not them you face. It is the One who holds their breath in his awesome and terrible hand.Surely, he is not mocked.You fools!Who is like God?This week, I discuss Luke 9:1.

In Colossians 1:15–23, Pastor Jared Proctor lifts our eyes to the supremacy of Christ, over creation, over the church, and over our lives. This passage reveals Jesus as Creator, Sustainer, Ruler, and Reconciler, reminding us that everything holds together in Him. As we reflect on who we once were and who we are now because of Christ, we are challenged to continue steadfastly in faith. This sermon invites us to ask an honest question: Who do you say Jesus is, and is He truly supreme in your life?

I'm back and I'm so happy to be talking about my favorite sport in the world: COLLEGE FOOTBALL. I'm today's episode, I cover Indiana winning the CFP, B1G 10 vs SEC supremacy, and share my opinion on some teams going into next season.
主播:Flora(中国)+ Erin(美国) 音乐:《成神仙》��最近国产动画《中国奇谭2(Yao-Chinese Folktales Season 2)》上线了,大家都看了吗?这部动画的第一集名字是“如何成为三条龙(How To Become Loongs)”,其中有一句台词翻译的很有趣,将“得罪龙王爷”翻译成了“Angered the Loong, the Rain Lord”。01. “龙王爷”翻译成了“the Rain Lord”,lord是什么意思?其实,“龙王爷”在汉语中是一个非常具有中国特色的一个概念,所以翻译的时候需要结合语境(context)。��那么,lord在西方文化中到底有什么含义呢?Lord refers to someone who has authority(权威), status(地位), and responsibility(责任感). 总而言之,就是有权力的人。同时,lord与社会秩序(social orders)和等级制度(hierarchy)也有关系。Examples:(1)电影《指环王》的英文名The Lord of the Rings就是指主宰整个戒指体系的索伦,他就是主宰其他戒指的一个统治者(controller)。He has the most power or authority.(2)英国的上议院叫作The House of Lords,因为最早的英国议会就是“贵族们(lords)的议会”。直到今天The House of Lords还在英国沿用。“Lord” doesn't necessarily mean someone who runs everything (掌控一切), but someone with status and influence (影响力). 02. 英文中还有哪些单词可以表示“掌控者”呢?① Ruler 统治者、管理者Ruler是实际管理(govern)和做决策(make decisions)的人,也就是那个有最高权力的掌控者。Basically, a ruler is someone who runs things.② Sovereign 君主、元首Sovereign拥有法律层面上的最高权力(ultimate legal authority)。例如:在电影《权力的游戏(Game of Thrones)》中,坐在铁王座上的人就是七大王国的最高统治者。The person on the Iron Throne isn't just a ruler, they're the sovereign of the Seven Kingdoms.③ King 国王King更强调世袭统治(hereditary rule)、传统(tradition)以及合法性(legitimacy)。例如:查尔斯三世(King Charles III)——伊丽莎白二世和菲利普亲王的长子,就是名正言顺的king。④ Emperor 帝王Emperor掌管一整个帝国(empire), not just a single kingdom (王国). Emperor的头衔和权力都更高更大。例如:秦始皇就是“First Emperor of Qin”。还有罗马皇帝(the Roman Emperor),他们的统治是覆盖多个地区的(multiple regions)。⑤ Master 主人、师傅Master侧重于重掌控别人命运、行为的人。It emphasizes control (控制), not necessarily political power (政治权力). 例如:在电影《星球大战(Star Wars)》中,Darth Vader (达斯·维达) calls Palpatine (帕尔帕廷) “my master”.Master除了有“主人”的意思之外,也可以是“师傅”。It means someone who you learned a unique (特殊的) skill from.⑥ Overlord 霸王Overlords就是对其他的lords有统治权的人(hold power over other lords),但是近几年通常用来形容专横跋扈(tyrannical)的人,特别带有负面意味(negative or villainous tone)。在一些科幻作品或者电子游戏中可能会见到overlords这样的主宰者。Overlord is used for an unwanted or feared ruler (不受欢迎或令人畏惧的统治者), or in video games for the final boss.Final boss(最终BOSS):指电子游戏中最终关卡的最终敌人,通常是游戏中最难打败的敌人。⑦ god 神A god or deity (神) refers to a being beyond humans, someone controlling nature or the universe (宇宙). 它比较抽象(abstract)、和人类很有距离感(distant)。03. 为什么“龙王爷”用“lord”,而不是“king”或“god”?��为什么“龙王爷”翻译成了“the Rain Lord”而不是“the Rain King”或者是“the Rain god”呢?(1)King是人类的国王,拥有政权。“龙王爷”不属于这个范畴,所以不能用king。(2)“god” feels a little abstract (抽象的) and distant (遥远的). 它更像是宇宙生物,不像是现实生活中与人有联系的人。但是在中国的民间信仰里,“龙王爷”和人类是有某种人格化关联的。例如:在《中国奇谭2》里面,真正的“龙王爷”知道人们在供奉3条蛇之后,勃然大怒,天空马上就电闪雷鸣了。Villagers fear him, respect (尊敬) him, and depend on (依赖) him. So he's involved in their lives.��用“lord”代指“龙王爷”,好在哪里?Lord是权力和责任的象征,不像king的“传承”和“延续”、也不似god的“抽象”和“距离”,所以Lord是比较贴近龙王爷的一个概念。而the Rain Lord里面的“rain”恰好说明了龙王爷掌管降雨的职能。It's not just about status, it's about function (职能) and relationship (关系).04. 中国的“龙”和西方的“dragon”有什么不同呢?龙王爷在《中国奇谭2》里面叫“Loong, the Rain Lord”,“龙”用的是音译词——LOONG。西方的dragon通常有喷火的能力,而且是非常有破坏性的反面角色。中国龙 are powerful but also protective (保护的) and wise (智慧的). 人们通常把中国龙和帝王(emperors)联系到一起。例如:中国古代皇帝的龙袍。“Loong, the Rain Lord”这个翻译抓住了龙王爷的自然属性和神话职能,便于西方观众理解这个角色的作用。欢迎大家在评论区留言:大家有没有看《中国奇谭2》呢?你们觉得怎么样呢?Have you ever watched Yao-Chinese Folktales Season 2? What do you think?

What are you really seeking in life? Success? Comfort? Or something deeper?In Matthew 7:7-8, Jesus promises: "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you." But the question isn't just IF we're seeking—it's WHAT we're seeking and HOW we're pursuing it.Are we seeking Jesus as the true Ruler of our hearts, or just looking for someone to give us what we want? God isn't a genie in a bottle. He calls us to seek Him diligently, persistently, and wholeheartedly—not for what He can give us, but for who He is. When we seek Him with all our heart, Jeremiah 29:13 promises we WILL find Him.The incredible truth? Your pursuit is not in vain. No matter where you are or what you've done, God is with you. He sees you as so valuable that He sent His Son to die for you. So ask yourself honestly: What are you seeking today?

Verse by verse exposition of Daniel ch. 2.
Dear friends,As we start off another year, we are still conscious of how troubled our world is. Wars and rumours of wars continue to fill our news media. When will mankind ever come to peace? … not until the Lord returns! It may look as if God has lost control of the world as nations war against each other, but that is a failure to understand God's purpose in creating and appointing the nations. Paul, in his speech in Athens, speaks of God's ongoing rule of the world through his rule of the nations.Yours,PhillipFreely available, supported by generosity.If you enjoy Two Ways News, why not lend us a hand?

Verse by verse study through the book of Acts Chapter Seven and Verse Twenty Seven
Chaplain Don Moldstad was preacher for this service. Matthew 2:1-12: Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.” When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. So they said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet: ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are not the least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you shall come a Ruler who will shepherd My people Israel.' ” Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.” When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.

PREVIEW FOR LATER TODAY EMPEROR MANUEL: CHARISMA WITHOUT SUSTAINABILITY Colleague Professor Ed Watts, Author of The Romans. Professor Ed Watts critiques Emperor Manuel, a 12th-century ruler who prioritized grand gestures, such as jousting, over strategic governance. Although Manuel's conquests looked impressive, his failure to create sustainable systems left the empire superficially powerful but institutionally weak, unlike successful Roman predecessors.457 AMBROSIAN ILLIAD

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Revelation 13 A beast emerges from the sea with ten horns and seven heads, receiving authority from the dragon. It speaks proud and blasphemous words and wages war against the saints for forty-two months. The world is amazed and follows the beast, worshiping both it and the dragon. Another beast comes from the earth, with two horns like a lamb but speaking like a dragon. It performs signs, deceives people, and tells them to make an image of the first beast. Those who refuse to worship the image are threatened with death. It causes all people to receive a mark on their hand or forehead, without which no one can buy or sell. The number of the beast is revealed as six hundred sixty-six, a number God gives the wisdom to understand. Evil often appears powerful and convincing, but its strength is ultimately limited and short-lived. The beasts symbolize forces opposing God and deceiving many with false authority and signs. We must be careful not to follow what is sinful, even if it looks powerful or seems to have an unstoppable influence. The mark of the beast represents loyalty, but we are called to stay loyal to God, even when it is hard. Our worship belongs to Him alone. Although the enemy might appear to be winning temporarily, God remains in complete control. We should not fear those who can harm our bodies, but instead remain faithful to the One who holds our souls. Our perseverance and trust in Christ are our victory. Mighty God, we praise You as the one true Ruler who reigned even when the beasts rose in power. Though they once deceived the nations and fought against the faithful, their time was brief, and their authority was limited. You allowed their rise for a purpose, but You also brought about their fall. Strengthen us through this reminder of Your past sovereignty and unshakable rule. Help us stay faithful as others did when pressured to compromise. Let us worship You alone and cling to truth. Your victory lasts forever. Keep us loyal to Christ through every trial we face. Thought Questions: Evil powers attacked God's people. How did the faithful endure, and how are you preparing to stand firm under governmental pressure? “Here is the perseverance and the faith of the saints.” What kind of faith can accept captivity or death in the name of Jesus Christ? Why would Christians give up worldly comfort and financial stability to follow Jesus, and what are you willing to surrender now?

Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman
Hey lady! You know we’re all about our gentle growth and continuous improvement over here so we’re excited to share an episode that will help grow your toolkit for whatever life may bring your way.As we heal and process it’s common to notice where your childhood has yet again shaped your behavior and caused patterns that at one time seemed normal but now no longer serve you. Growing up in environments where our caregivers were doing the best they could with the tools they had means that we may not have always had the space to be your full self. And, if you grew up in a Black household it’s entirely plausible to not be allowed to feel your feelings and bury them instead.But, we’re grown now and you are not only allowed to feel your feelings but you are encouraged to and there are frameworks that can help.

What’s an empowered way to show this?”· Regulating: Tools and tips (breathwork, journaling, therapy, movement, prayer, etc.)Quote of the Day:“If you don’t know what you’re feeling, it’s hard to know what to do with your feelings.” – Dr. Marc Brackett Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.
