What kind of heart brings God the most glory? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper presses into the truth that God is not merely to be known — he is to be savored above all else.

GO BACK AND LISTEN TO THE SNEAK PEAK FIRST

Here is an important mantra: We don't want a sale, we want the re-orders. That task however is getting harder and harder.  Customers today are more educated, better prepared and have more alternatives than ever before.  Satisfying a customer is not enough – we have to exceed their expectations and provide exceptional customer service.  Customer service has only one truth – how the customer perceives the quality of the service. Forget what we think is good customer service.  We have to be really clear about what is the customer's perception of good customer service.  This is a totally subjective idea on the part of the customer, but that doesn't mean we can't have influence on that perception.   Here is a quick audit on your understanding of the customer. How well do you know the customer's perception of high quality customer service?  When was the last time you asked about how well you were doing with serving that customer? Are you assuming that because there are no claims, that the customer is fully satisfied?  Do you have a clear idea of the level of service your competitor is providing in terms of customer service?   The building of a strong fan base amongst your clients is a key step to becoming more successful.  We all know the acquisition cost of finding a new customer is many times more expensive than deepening the scope of the relationship with an existing customer. That is fine but we need to also expand our numbers of customers. We always need more good customers, but how can we create new fans?  How do we do that when there are so many rivals?  Here are four approaches to consider.   Have broad product knowledge Whenever we ask a salesperson a question and they cannot answer it immediately, we doubt their value to us.  Often however, we salespeople can become concentrated on just a few products and lose touch with the broader perspective.  We need to keep studying our total product line-up, so that we have broad knowledge to show we are professionals in our business.  Prove that we can be trusted to serve the customer.  So ask yourself, how well do you know your own product line-up?   Have an extreme desire to help So many times, as customers, we are told “no” by salespeople. Are we ever happy about that response? Buyers are looking for salespeople who they feel are really motivated to serve.  The way to prove that is to show your strong desire to serve at every customer face to face meeting, on every phone call and in every response.  Great in theory but are you really doing that now?   Have a sincere interest in the customer's situation We have targets to achieve, pressure to perform and so often we can become totally focused on our own situation.  By the way, here is a newsflash - the client only cares about their own situation and how dedicated you are to helping them.  Are you really sincere about helping the customer or are you focused on yourself, your numbers, your deadlines?  Don't be in any doubt - customers can feel the difference.   Understand the customer's expectations Customer expectations change, but often salespeople are not changing with them. Business moves and what was enough some months ago, may not be suitable enough now.  We have to really monitor the customer's situation to see what has changed.  That means we have to keep asking them about their expectations of service from us.  Are we serving them in the way they want to be served.  Most salespeople never want to ask this type of question because they are scared of the answer.  We have to be brave and ask and if we do, we will be delivering exactly the type of service the customer wants and expects.  When we do that, we differentiate ourselves from our competitors   So what percentage of your customers would you count as your loyal fans?  What are you currently doing to drive that percentage score much higher?  Customers will become someone's loyal fan.  We have to make sure that is us and not our competitor. Assume that the customer's expectations and perceptions of what they consider outstanding service will keep changing.  We have to keep up with the change but are we doing it?

Ep 150 Description:  “Pleasure is not a luxury. It is not a distraction. It is a human right. And reclaiming it—in childbirth, in healthcare, in life—is a path toward healing,  well-being, and activism.” —Debra Pascali Bonaro   Our bodies are intricate landscapes of sensation, where hormones dance, nerves communicate, and physiological responses intertwine in ways we're only beginning to understand. And these same pathways that create sexual pleasure are remarkably active during childbirth, challenging centuries of medical narratives that have reduced this transformative moment to a clinical, painful procedure.  This week, Debra discusses her landmark article, Orgasmic Birth: The Anatomy of Pleasure in Childbirth, published in Frontiers in Global Women's Health Journal, delving into the science of orgasmic birth, systemic obstetric violence, reproductive justice, hormonal landscapes of pleasure, the anatomy of childbirth, cultural narratives of pain, bodily autonomy, and the transformative potential of reclaiming women's birthing experiences. Don't miss this groundbreaking episode!

This is an excerpt from a previous episode of Patrick reading from the first two chapters of The Satisfying Lies of Dr. Salome Kamaria.

One of the hallmarks of the rare genetic disorder Prader-Willi syndrome is hyperphagia, an insatiable desire to eat. Households with someone with Prader-Willi syndrome often have to take measures to restrict access to food, such as locking refrigerators, pantries, and trash cans. They must also deal with the complex behavioral challenges associated with the condition. Earlier this year, Soleno Therapeutics won approval for VykatXR, the first FDA-approved therapy for treating hyperphagia. We spoke to Anish Bhatnagar, CEO of Soleno Therapeutics, about Prader-Willi syndrome, its therapy to treat the condition, and the significance of having a medicine that can address hyperphagia associated with the disorder.

Ep 149 Description:  “Your birth is yours to shape— not in every detail as the baby has some too— but in energy, intention, and experience. You deserve to be heard. You deserve to be honored. You deserve a birth that reflects YOU, your power, your pleasure, and your love.” —Debra Pascali-Bonaro  Birth isn't just a medical event—it's a deeply personal journey where you hold more power than you realize. What if your birth experience could be transformed from a clinical procedure to a profound, empowering moment of connection? Imagine stepping into your birth with confidence, clarity, and the ability to shape an experience that honors your deepest desires. Tune in as Debra breaks down the essential roadmap for creating personalized birth preferences, revealing how to communicate effectively with your healthcare team, understand your provider's practices, explore holistic approaches beyond medical interventions, and ultimately reclaim your birth as a sacred, intentional experience that reflects your unique vision of bringing new life into the world.   Connect with Debra!

Learn, Understand and Master the LANGUAGE of WOMEN

John 4:13-14 Jesus answered and said to her, "Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again; but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life." Everything in the natural physical world has limitations. Let's think about what Jesus said. The one who drinks of the water from Jacob's well will thirst again, not because there's something wrong with the water. The physical body needs water to survive. We have to drink daily. In contrast, the spiritual man also has thirst, but the water Jesus offers not only satisfies the thirst, but the living water becomes a well of more water producing eternal life. Our encouragement today is that as God's children, we have a never-ending, all-satisfying, eternal life-producing fountain dwelling in our souls. As we will learn, it is spiritual. In any circumstance or relationship, we may drink from the life of Christ, and He will fill us with what we need to express His life in this world. As we read this account, we see how living water was pouring forth from Him to the Samaritan woman. Although He was physically thirsty, He ministered to her out of fullness. Such is the life we have as we live to love with Jesus. We may have many people cross our paths today who are like the woman from Samaria. They are thirsting for eternal life, but don't know it. May the love we show them prepare the way for conversations about living water that springs up to eternal life. May we live out of the fullness of Jesus' life. You begin with a statement of faith. “Jesus, You are my life. You are the source of everything I need today.” Then follow with a request of faith. “Lord, make me a spring of living water to those around me. Pour out Your love to everyone who crosses my path today.” We close with gratitude. “Thank You for giving me eternal life. Amen.” I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of “giving it forward,” so others may receive encouragement to turn their hearts to God and to live to love with Jesus.

What's the one thing that can produce lasting fruit in our parish ministries?If we want to see real growth in areas like attendance, vocations, and community life, we must focus on making and maturing disciples. There are no shortcuts—superficial fixes won't yield lasting change. True fruitfulness comes from healthy individuals, thriving ministries, and a clear vision rooted in mission. In this episode, I break it all down using the metaphor of a fruit tree—and show why discipleship is the key to everything.

Ben and Brent continue into the final hour of today's show with a big-picture view of the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The hosts welcome on Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli, who discusses how these conference quarterfinal matchups have satisfied hockey fans, before diving deeper into the Maple Leafs' Game 4 loss. The trio chat about if the defeat should scare Leafs Nation at all, the physical play in the series, and the officiating across the first round. Speaking of hard hitting action, the boys check in with TVA Sports' Renaud Lavoie (26:13), who is covering the Canadiens-Capitals. They get into the atmosphere of the series; the toughness Washington has tried to impose and the fight Montreal has shown, especially after losing their goaltender. The trio also look at how Leafs can finish off the Sens, the Oilers never out of the fight, and the Jets collapsing over the last two games. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

How can language help shape your worldbuilding? We're not necessarily talking about conlang here -- that can certainly be part of worldbuilding, but it doesn't have to be, and many works of speculative fiction manage perfectly fine without invented languages. But the words you choose in description and dialogue will also communicate something to your reader. There are so many ways that words can create the vibes for your world: the aural quality of different languages, choosing character and place names, the cadence and flow of sentences, and the conscious emulation of other genres or eras. We also explore what the conceptual availability of certain ideas, technologies, or worldviews may mean for the vocabulary, idioms, and metaphors of a culture. Being very intentional about word choice can help a writer communicate a location's aesthetic, let a reader know what to expect from a book's tone, help reveal character through dialogue, and even drop information about all your other worldbuilding in quick and subtle ways. And since we are huge word nerds, we delight in examining all of it! The episode begins, however, with a 15-minute diversion into how much we love Shakespeare, so -- enjoy that! And happy birthday, Bill! We are also delighted to announce that we are, for the fifth year in a row, a Finalist for the Hugo Award for Best Fancast! Anyone who has a WSFS membership for this year can vote, and we would love your consideration. Membership costs $50 and gets you access to the voters' packet, digital versions of almost everything you'll find on the Finalists lists -- novels, novellas, novelettes, short stories, poetry, and even audio and video.

Ep 142 Description:  “Healing begins as you start honoring every aspect of your birth story and celebrate your wins. No one fails in birth. Sometimes, you have to dig deeper into that well of strength than you ever would have imagined prior. This is something to take pride in.” —Debra Pascali-Bonaro   The notion that hospitals inherently rob birthing individuals of their autonomy and joy is a limiting belief that deserves to be challenged.
