God Desires to Save You! - John 3:16-18... Who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. - 1 Timothy 2:4For God – the greatest loverSo loved – the greatest degreeThe world – the greatest companyThat He gave – the greatest actHis only begotten Son – the greatest giftThat whoever – the greatest opportunityBelieves – the greatest simplicityIn Him – the greatest attractionShall not perish – the greatest promiseBut – the greatest differenceHave – the greatest certaintyEverlasting life – the greatest possessionJesus loves me this I knowFor the Bible tells me soLittle ones to Him belongThey are weak but He is strongYes, Jesus loves meYes, Jesus loves meYes, Jesus loves meThe Bible tells me so!Now to best understand John 3:16, we need to see how it ***fits*** in the great chapter that is John 3. John 3 shows not only that God is love (1 Jn. 4:16), but also that God is holy (Psa. 99:9) and that God is good (1 Pet. 2:3).“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” - Jesus in John 3:3For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. - Romans 3:23-24Because God is holy, He must ***judge*** our sin. Had Jesus never come to deal with our sin, 100% of us would be going to Hell because of our sin.As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him may have eternal life.Because God is holy, God must judge sin. Because God is good, Jesus was ***able*** to take our sin upon Himself.Because God is love, He offers salvation to all who ***turn*** to Him and believe.Now when someone gives you an awesome gift, what do you want to do for them in return?“He must increase, but I must decrease.” - JTB in John 3:30Dakota's mom said, “I have always been prepared to answer your questions – I was simply waiting for you to ask!”“Son, I am proud of what you have become. I am going to love you well.”To all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God. - John 1:12

Heatrick Heavy Hitters – Muay Thai Strength and Conditioning
Ever watched a Muay Thai fight where one guy just seems one step ahead the entire time? No matter what his opponent throws, he's already gone—or already in his face, shutting everything down.It looks like magic, but it's not.It's range control.And if you're not thinking about it, you're giving away fights before they even start.Why Techniques Alone Won't Save You...Most fighters get obsessed with perfecting techniques. Sharper combos. Faster kicks. Better defense. But here's the thing:Techniques are just tools. If you don't understand when and where to use them, you're just throwing weapons into the void, hoping they land.Winning fights isn't about memorizing moves—it's about controlling where the fight happens.That's what separates tactical fighters from brawlers.

Cet épisode ne m'a pas du tout emmenée où je l'avais imaginé. En recherchant un témoignage de femme d'expatrié, je voulais entendre une histoire de privilèges, qu'on parle de salaires à six chiffres, de personnel domestique, de la douce vie des housewifes qui fréquentent des salons de thé de luxe....Et je n'ai pas eu ça.Elsa a bien été une femme d'expatrié. Mais loin de tout, en Chine et en Inde, elle s'est surtout retrouvée empêchée. Empêchée de travailler, d'abord. Et surtout, empêchée par un conjoint qui s'est révélé hyper contrôlant, voire psychologiquement violent. Comment fait-on quand on est à des milliers de kilomètres de chez soi, sans autonomie, sans carte bleue, et que sa seule compagnie se résume à petites filles et un mari toxique ?

This is probably a question you've asked yourself many times when building your movement, or product, or next big thing.

The Sandman Won't Save You by Max Wrestling Podcast
Overwhelmed by the number of codes required for the Geotech PE Exam? Scared by its low pass rates…year after year?
Happy New Year to the Pearl Jam Podcast Community! 2025 is set to be another great year for the band on tour in April and May, and hopefully more will get announced at some point soon. To kick off the year, we are gonna finish our look back on 2024 by covering the highly talked about tour closer in Sydney. With a plethora of storylines leading up to the show, such as the 30th anniversary of Vitalogy's release, expectations were high for the final night on the 2024 Dark Matter tour, and as per usual, the band delivered something memorable. It was the type of show that you'd call a kitchen sink show incorporating songs that had barely been brought to the table last year such as Brain Of J, In Hiding, Tremor Christ, Save You, Dissident and Alone. But the big story from that night overpowers all of the clutch deep cuts because for the first time in ten years, the band decided to pull out Hunger Strike. It had been seven and a half years since Chris Cornell's death, a subject that Eddie Vedder has rarely addressed publicly. But there is more behind this performance than just playing a famed song from their past. We'll get into details of how Ed had seemed to open up a little more about his relationship with Chris, and how this moment in Sydney was seen from a therapeutic standpoint, having the crowd pitch in and help out in the roles meant for Cornell. A powerful moment, and one that will be remembered for decades onward. We'll also hear from our Aussie crew who helped out on our reaction episodes for the run down there, we'll hear a story about a boy who challenged Eddie to rock, paper, scissors, and we'll also share some news and changes about the podcast in effect for 2025.

Join me for a walk down the driveway to discuss what that looks like in your life! I'll see you on the Rooftop.

In this time of elections and the churn, I reflect on the past few transformative years—from the chaos of Afghanistan's collapse and Operation Pineapple Express to the resurgence of my play, Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret. These experiences shaped Rooftop Leadership, a methodology rooted in four pillars: strategic impact, human nature, human connection, and deep work. Drawing from my Green Beret experiences, this approach confronts the disconnection and low-trust environments that dominate today's world. By fostering meaningful relationships and addressing “the churn” of fear, distraction, and distrust, I aim to help leaders align with their deeper nature, inspire action, and drive profound, lasting change.

Today's episode hits on a tough truth: nobody is coming to save you. In this episode, I share a recent conversation with a farm owner feeling the pressure of tough decisions and past mistakes. We dig into why ego, fear of being exposed, and avoiding tough conversations hold people back—and how those same issues can sink a family operation. I also talk about my own experiences, the lessons I learned from my granddad's mistakes, and how I hit rock bottom before finally realizing it's on me to change. At Legacy Farmer, we're not here to save anyone. We're here to lead those ready to transform their business and their life. It's not easy, but it's worth it. Let's get into it.

While reflecting on the process of vulnerability in creative work, I shared a story inspired by Bubba, a friend writing about his near-death experience and grappling with fear as he prepares to release his book. I recalled my own anxiety when handing my first manuscript to Steven Pressfield, my literary hero. Despite initial doubts, his encouragement, including offering to write the foreword, changed my perspective. This journey taught me the importance of trusting others with your work and paying forward the support and kindness we receive. I'll see you on the Rooftop.

As a nation, we can and must use the Green Beret Principles of trust, resilience, restoration, and more to face our foes abroad - and overcome the internal strife that besets American society today.” These are the words from “Hard Truths,” recently released by Congressman Mike Waltz, soon to be National Security Advisor (NSA) under President Trump. This podcast addresses the Hard Truths that Mike Waltz must consider around Afghanistan and the aftermath of the Afghanistan debacle and the “asleep at the switch” consequences of the past Administration. This podcast contains a no-B.S. run down of “hard truths” that speak to one of Waltz's critical points as the National Security Advisor to President Trump, but also hard truths for you and me. Why? As Waltz Says…”We must be vigilant. Perhaps that is the hardest and most important, truth of all.” Get a notepad for this one. Let's lean in, set our politics aside, and get focused and loud on these hard truths as we roll into 2025.

What does the new National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz think about Afghanistan, the threat, and the resistance?Even before Shawn Ryan interviewed Commander Massoud, I hosted Congressman Mike Waltz, Legend, & Commander Massoud to discuss the botched Afghanistan withdrawal and what it might mean to us in the West.As Congressman Waltz prepares to take the reins as National Security Advisor to President Trump, this seems like a good time to put this hard-hitting discussion back on the street.Please check it out and share it widely.I'll see you on the Rooftop.

This message emphasizes the importance of finding and sharing your authentic voice as a leader, embracing vulnerability, and telling personal stories to foster deep connections and build social capital. True influence goes beyond success; it requires relatability, relevance, and a willingness to share difficult experiences to resonate deeply with others. Leadership involves persevering through fear, iterating on personal growth, and accepting that no one is coming to save you—progress depends on your commitment to show up and share your journey. By doing so, you empower others, inspire reciprocal support, and create meaningful change in both your community and yourself. I'll see you on the Rooftop.

I believe in getting big sh*t done even when nobody else is coming. I believe it to my core. This country is built on this concept. For me, one of those areas is mobilizing the GWOT Generation of veterans and military family members to solve wicked problems that supplement the gaps that are often not filled by the federal government. The abandonment of our Afghan Allies. The wildfires in Maui. The hurricane - ravaged hills of Western North Carolina. Our veteran network brings enormous horsepower to solving tough problems. It's the ultimate private public partnership and it's changing the game of how veterans can maintain relevance in a time when our country is extremely challenged. Task Force Pineapple is back and our veterans are stepping up in a big way. Give this episode a listen and then let me know: What's your Pineapple Express? I'll see you on the Rooftop!

I get this question a lot. It can seem like a daunting reality when we arrive at the conclusion that some of our biggest problems in life require fully stepping into the arena and leading the way to solving these wicked problems. But, the truth is…once you take that first step on wobbly knees, there is a level of compelling connection that follows you into the darkest places. We are meaning-seeking creatures and there is a role for each one of us to play that's much bigger than ourselves. Join me on this episode of the Rooftop Podcast to talk about what your role can be. I'll see you on the Rooftop!

This is one of the most important realizations leaders can reach in this unprecedented Churn of division we live in today. But, then what? When nobody is coming, how do we step into the arena? That is exactly what this Rooftop Podcast aims to answer and this episode will get the conversation going! I'll see you on the Rooftop.

This episode begins a two-part series where we dig into the shows at the Borgata in Atlantic City from 2005. These shows were unique for the band because of the small venue size holding a little over 2,500 people, but also due to the general admission area which was something that they had not done very often since the Roskilde tragedy in 2000. After a year of touring in Canada and testing out new songs and setlists on the road, this show has it's fair share of surprises and rarities for the time. Recently we saw Porch get played as the second song in Wrigley Field, and we'll get to talk about that when it comes to this show. Songs like Sad, Low Light and Man Of The Hour are in their early infancy, so we'll chat about how those songs were continuing to evolve at the time into the big performances that we're familiar with today. We'll dive into excellent versions of Save You, Crazy Mary and Rearviewmirror as well. Javier joins in on this episode and will talk about some of the different things you're hearing at these shows including Cameron playing with an open snare and Mike's guitar featured behind in the mix. And we'll talk about our favorite performances of Dark Matter songs from this tour!

Today, we welcome back the author, actor, public speaker, Ret. Lt Colonel Scott Mann to discuss his new book "Nobody is Coming to Save You" https://scottmann.com/ The website Nobody is Coming to Save You is a practical guide for leaders who want to make a bigger impact in the world now. It distills what I've learned over my three-decade career as a Green Beret into strategies you can use to lead others through hard change. These are the same tactics Green Berets use to get vital stuff done when stakes are high and conditions impossible. You'll also learn about human behavior, strategic influence and dynamic storytelling because relationships are rocket fuel for getting big sh*t done. --- One CA is a product of the civil affairs association and brings in people who are current or former military, diplomats, development officers, and field agents to discuss their experiences on the ground with a partner nation's people and leadership.

23 years after the attacks of 9.11.2001, America is still reeling from the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan and the wholesale abandonment of our allies. It's more important than ever that we not forget the lessons of 9.11.2001. Not just because of the moral imperative, and of the numerous sacrifices made by so many, but because of the likelihood that this failed withdrawal follows us home and puts us at even greater risk for another strike. I hope you'll join me on this commemorative episode where we look at where we've been, where we are, and where we're going in the ever-progressing story of the battle against violent extremism.PREVIOUS EPISODES ON AFGHANISTAN: “Finding Meaning in the Madness of War”“Saving Space Monkey: Storytelling in Real Time”“Chaos in Kabul”“Operation Pineapple: Deadline”“Afghan Bombing” Operation Pineapple Continues”“Punching Above Your Weight” Operation Pineapple Express: https://operationpineappleexpress.com/Operation Pineapple Express Relief: https://operelief.org Own Every Room - https://rooftopleadership.com/owneveryroom/ Nobody is Coming to Save You - https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/scott-mann/nobody-is-coming-to-save-you/9781546008286/?lens=center-street Scottmann.com Join Rooftop Nation!

What's your Pineapple Express? This is the question Scott is asking everyone after the creation of Operation Pineapple Express in August of 2021. A group of veterans took a stand when no one else was coming - they saw the moral injury the withdrawal from Afghanistan was going to cause and knew something needed to be done. As we continue talking about Afghanistan, we are going to start broadening our conversations with leaders who are creating their own Pineapple Express. Join Scott this week as he fills you in on where we're going and the amazing things to come.

As Pearl Jam is preparing for another memorable weekend at Wrigley Field this week, we were put in a somewhat difficult spot as to what we should cover to get you guys excited for the show. The dilemma was that we had already covered all five Wrigley shows back in the summer of 2020, so what would we do? Well, there's a little show that took place in Chicago in 2005 that doesn't get discussed as much as it should. To raise money for Hurricane Katrina relief funds, Robert Plant and Pearl Jam combined forces to create an out of this world all-star show. Our friend Jason Brown was lucky enough to be there that night, and he'll join us to tell the stories of how it all went down. To get into this show that took place in an intimate venue that has a capacity of less than 2,000, you had to make a $1,000 donation in order to get in. Jason made that donation, but you'll want to hear the wild story of how it happened. As legendary Led Zeppelin front man Robert Plant and his band The Strange Sensation opened up the night, the place was abuzz of whether the two rock 'n' roll titans would combine forces. Lo and behold, they did! The set they played with Plant was pretty remarkable, a combination of Given To Fly and Going To California as a wink wink to the song's influence kicked things off, followed by a few standard 1960s songs such as Little Sister and Money (That's What I Want). And then the band truly breaks out the Zeppelin heavy hitters - Fool In The Rain and Thank You. We'll have a very interesting discussion on Fool In The Rain featuring facts that may surprise you. The Gear Guru also joins us for this show and while we spend some time talking Zeppelin with him, we'll dig into Save You, Porch and Rearviewmirror that may or may not have sounded like other Pearl Jam songs.

This week on the 'OPE: One Year Later' series, we are continuing our extended conversation on the collapse of Afghanistan and where we go from here. I'm reaching out to you and connecting with the prominent voices involved in the long war in Afghanistan as well as its future. Afghan voices, in many cases, have been muzzled and their voices are not heard. Our focus is to give them a platform to speak truth to power so that you can hear the stories not told and how it affects not only you and your family but the world for the future. In this episode, Lieutenant General Haibatullah Alizai, the former Commander of all Afghan Special Operations Forces and leader of the Afghan military in its final days gives a riveting description of what led to the collapse, what we can learn from it, and what we must do for the future in order to protect ourselves at home. CONTEXT ON THIS SERIESIn August of 2021, the United States Government officially withdrew from Afghanistan leaving hundreds of thousands of at-risk Afghans vulnerable to Taliban brutality. Immediately, the impact of this moral injury was apparent on out Afghan allies and veteran populations with many of them left behind to deal with the aftermath that no one was coming. Scott and a team of combat veterans began to leverage their network of relationships to provide safe passage and ultimately relocation of hundreds of at-risk Afghans. Scott now has the opportunity to share the story of those Afghan Allies who made it out and of those who are still fighting their way to safety today, alongside many of the extraordinary men and women who made this possible. In this podcast series, Scott sits down with some of the members of Pineapple Express to share their stories and reflect on where we are one year later after the collapse of Afghanistan.

This week on the 'OPE: Three Years Later' series, Scott had the opportunity to sit down with another incredible and experienced individual, Lieutenant General Sami Sadat. Over the last year, many of our veterans and citizens have asked "what was the point?" in reference to Afghanistan. It has been very hard to process the loss and impact under the shadow of the withdrawal and abandonment. But as a former member of the Afghan National Army, Sami points out - the end is not written. The men and women of Afghanistan who grew up under relative freedom and other opportunities may just take back their country and carve out their future - with or without us. The future of Afghanistan and the U.S are inextricably linked. Join Scott and Sami to learn why.
