Most of the time when we talk Gospel, we only talk about how we accepted Jesus, and then we need to preach about the world being sinners who need Jesus. It is a part of it, but then for us to tell others about the Gospel is living our lives as the evidence of the change in us.Bible Verses: Ephesians1:3-10; Phillipians 1;2 Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 4:22-24; 1 John 1:5-10----------------------------------------------------------------Top 100 list at Feedspot: https://podcast.feedspot.com/christian_men_podcasts/E: warriorwithin.christianmanhood@gmail.com|TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pastorwarriorwithinMerch Store: https://wwcm-podcast.printify.me/productsPayPal DONATIONS: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=KC3DTP8HM7DAEYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WarriorWithinMinistriesStudios-----------------------------------------------------Affiliated with Talitha Coffee: https://talitha.com/pastordido-----------------------------------------------------Track: Jim Yosef - Samurai [NCS Release] Music provided by NoCopyrightSounds.Watch:Free Download / Stream:http://NCS.io/Samurai
Los samuráis fueron mucho más que guerreros del Japón feudal. Entre historia, mito y leyenda, su figura se convirtió en uno de los símbolos más fascinantes de la humanidad. En este episodio de Abismo exploramos el origen real de los samuráis, el código del bushidō, los clanes, las guerras, los rituales y los secretos que rodean a estos guerreros. También hablamos de los mitos que los rodean: duelos legendarios, ronin errantes, honor, suicidio ritual y las historias que el tiempo convirtió en leyenda.

The Government's migration and asylum plans have had that unique Keir Starmer way of annoying everyone. Including many of their own MPs, such as Walthamstow's Stella Creasy. She says her party is now asking people to live in “limbo” and that the new policy change is not “socially just”. She joins the panel to explain why. And in the second half, monsters are everywhere (including politics). But what is a monster? Why do humans keep inventing them — and what does that say about us? Dr Surekha Davies' new book Humans: A Monstrous History, explores all of that, and she joins the panel to give her take. ESCAPE ROUTES: • Jonn has been reading the work of Iain M.

This week on NAFC, the crew starts off with Discord issuing an apology for that weird age verification fiasco—because nothing says community like uploading your ID to talk about anime.Izzy goes deep into Mewgenics again, fully embracing whatever chaotic timeline we're living in. There's also talk about Resident Evil Requiem and whether Capcom still knows how to cook.Somehow the episode spirals into a heated debate: back in or front in parking? Friendships are tested.

We are still in the series of Faith Walk, this week is about having faith when we pray. If we think that all we need to do is do things for God to give us what we want... we have a false teaching.

In this deeply insightful and soulful conversation, I sit down with David C. Olcott, founder and CEO of Samurai Success, Inc., to explore what it truly means to live with awareness, purpose, and spiritual alignment.Drawing from over three decades of coaching experience, David shares how subconscious programming shapes our lives from childhood—and how we can reclaim our power through conscious choice, self-awareness, and personal ethos.From his early work with Tony Robbins to the creation of his transformative book Swords of Illumination, David offers wisdom on bridging the gap between human potential and divine consciousness. Together, Serena and David explore what it means to live as a modern samurai—disciplined, intentional, and in service to others.In This EpisodeThe evolution of coaching — how the industry has shifted from mass seminars to deeply personalized 1:1 transformation.Choice and programming — understanding how our beliefs and responses are formed before age seven, and how to rewrite them.From awareness to transformation — why awareness alone doesn't create change, and what steps to take next.Divinity and consciousness — what it means to recognize the divine within, and how that awareness changes how we live and lead.Living the Samurai ethos — how service, discipline, and alignment become pathways to mastery and meaning.Identity and attraction — how our inner frequency shapes the opportunities and relationships we draw into our lives.Spiritual energy made practical — using mindset, authenticity, and intention to project the energy you want to attract.The ultimate reminder — you are not here to discover who you are; you are here to create who you say you are.Key TakeawaysAwareness is the first step, but change requires consistent new behaviors and beliefs.You are always making choices—whether consciously or through old programming.Spiritual energy is not abstract; it manifests in your attitude, presence, and authenticity.Your identity determines your alignment, coherence, and what you attract.True mastery is being in service to others while continually refining yourself.The greatest freedom comes from remembering your divinity and choosing who you become.About the GuestDavid C. Olcott is the founder, president, and CEO of Samurai Success, Inc., an international coaching firm based in Denver, Colorado. A nationally recognized speaker and author of Swords of Illumination, David integrates psychology, performance, and financial strategy to help individuals and organizations achieve sustainable success through conscious design and spiritual awareness.Learn more about David's work and Swords of Illumination at samuraisuccess.com.Connect with SerenaIf you're a quiet woman leader ready to be visible without performing extroversion or burning out, the Visible Introvert community has the solution to your struggle.

Our itinerant samurai expert Donovan H. joins us for this set of three Zatoichi films, giving us some insight into Ichi's sword fighting style and what some of the movies we won't be watching say about Ichi's blindness. As for what we did watch: Kenji Misumi, who directed the first Zatoichi, directs his last two films of the series: Samaritan Zatoichi (1968) and Zatoichi and the Fire Festival (1970). While both suffer from the poor scripts that have accompanied many of Misumi's outings, he at least tries to make visually interesting films as he says goodbye to the series, and Zatoichi and the Fire Festival may be a top tier Zatoichi movie because of it (and the naked bathhouse brawl). Between those two, Kihachi Okamoto (The Sword of Doom and Kill!) drags Toshiro Mifune's Samurai with No Name into the Zatoichi universe in the overly long, surprisingly by the numbers Zatoichi Meets Yojimbo (1970)

In Day 7 of Mood Mastery the Samurai Way, inspired by the steady-minded wisdom of Miyamoto Musashi, you'll complete the week with a gentle review and integration practice. This episode guides you to reflect on what shifted for you—what steadied your mood, what helped you return to calm, and what you want to carry forward—so the progress you made becomes something your body remembers. You'll briefly revisit the week's tools—your equanimity affirmation, Samurai breathing, Prithvi Mudra for clarity, and Second Chakra flow—then choose a simple "carry-forward" ritual you can repeat in just a few minutes. Leave feeling grounded in your growth, clear about what works for you, and quietly confident stepping into the next week with more balance and inner command. Focus: Weekly review + integration Best for: strengthening consistency, emotional balance, self-trust, and sustainable calm Takeaway: Mood mastery isn't perfection—it's practice, reflection, and a steady return. ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to Mastering Your Moods—a meditation series designed to help you stop feeling at the mercy of your emotions and start feeling steady, clear, and in charge of how you respond. Moods can shift fast—one message, one memory, one stressful moment—and suddenly you're anxious, irritated, heavy, or overwhelmed. In this series, you'll learn how to work with your nervous system instead of against it, using simple daily practices that help you regulate in real time—so you can come back to yourself without spiraling, snapping, or shutting down. This isn't about pretending you're fine; it's about building emotional skill: noticing what you feel, understanding what's underneath it, and shifting your state with calm, practical tools you can actually use in your real life. This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, "Mood Mastery: From Reactive to Regulated," episodes 3043-3049. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE - "Mushin (No Mind) Quest Musashi was known to advocate for the concept of mushin, or "no-mind," in combat. It involves acting without conscious thought, free from hesitation, fear, or distraction. By training himself to enter into a state of mushin during duels and battles, Musashi could maintain emotional equilibrium and react instinctively to his opponents' movements. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Day 1: Focus Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "I embrace both light and shadow with equanimity." Day 3: Hara Breath: Inhale deeply through the nose, allowing the belly to expand. Exhale fully through the mouth, drawing the navel towards the spine.

Samurai (British Museum Press 2026) is a richly illustrated volume co-authored by exhibition curator Rosina Buckland (British Museum) and Oleg Benesch (York) to accompany the special exhibition "Samurai" at the British Museum 3 Feb - 4 May 2026. More than a catalogue, Samurai uses the exhibit to explore the overlapping and diverging myths and histories of the samurai from medieval warriors to bureaucrats to global pop culture phenomena. As the exhibition website observes, "The samurai is an iconic figure, evoking images of formidable fighters possessing ideals of courage, honour and self-sacrifice. Yet much of what we think we know about samurai is invented tradition." Samurai is the kind of book that epitomizes how rigorous academic work can be transformed into effective public communication. The museum encourages listeners, readers, and guests of the exhibit to explore more of the collection here. Learn more about your ad choices.

In Day 6 of Mood Mastery the Samurai Way, inspired by the calm discipline of Miyamoto Musashi, we bring everything together in a layered meditation designed to help you return to center quickly and gently. You'll combine the week's key techniques—equanimity affirmation (light + shadow), Samurai breathing for calm focus, Prithvi Mudra for clarity, and Second Chakra (Sacral) flow—into one cohesive practice you can use whenever your mood starts to swing or your mind feels pulled in too many directions. This is your "whole system" meditation: steady the breath, anchor the body, clear the mind, and soften emotional resistance—so you can respond with quiet strength and graceful balance. Leave feeling calmer, clearer, and more emotionally regulated—ready to meet life with steadiness rather than reactivity. Featured practice: Layering affirmation + Samurai breath + Prithvi Mudra + Sacral Chakra flow Best for: overstimulation, mood swings, scattered focus, emotional overload, decision fatigue Takeaway: Steadiness isn't something you find—it's something you practice and return to.

Today, we dive into the chaotic final act of Japan's Warring States period, and hear about the three warlords who brought it to an end. Oda Nobunaga, the ruthless innovator who shattered the status quo on the battlefield. Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the peasant-born schemer who climbed from the lowest social ranks to the very top of Japan's hierarchy. And Tokugawa Ieyasu, the patient survivor who outlasted them all and built a shogunate that would rule Japan for over 250 years.Joining us for this is Chris Harding, a cultural historian of Japan, India and East-West connections, based at the University of Edinburgh.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.Dan Snow's History Hit is now available on YouTube!

Track it with 7 checkmarks (one per day) and notice the moment your body starts to relax faster—proof your nervous system is learning.

A lawyer, artist and curator discuss different examples of censorship and self censorship in Radio 4's weekly discussion of ideas to kick off the week. Tom Sutcliffe's guests are: Ai Weiwei: a major name in contemporary art and for decades a leading voice for freedom of expression in his native China – and the wider world. In 2011 he was detained for eighty-one days in a secret location, unable to communicate with the outside world. His new book, On Censorship moves from authoritarian regimes to the pervasive influence of corporate power, social media and dominant interest groups in democracies. Baroness Helena Kennedy has written the introduction to collected writings of Anna Politkovskaya, the Russian journalist who was murdered outside her home in Moscow twenty years ago. With continued attacks in Russia on press freedom, the way she spoke truth to power remains inspirational for Baroness Kennedy. The figure of the Samurai is often associated with ideas about discipline, sacrifice and war but a new exhibition at the British Museum (on until May 4th) looks at the way this warrior class became consumers and patrons of culture. Rosina Buckland has co-curated the show. Producer: Ruth Watts
