Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Ecclesiastes series.Solomon had it all — pleasure, progress, wealth, legacy — and still said, "I hated life."

Have you ever heard of SCRIPTING? Scripting is a powerful manifestation technique rooted in the Law of Attraction. It's essentially writing a story about your life as if your desires have already come true. Think of it like journaling, but with a twist: you're writing from the future you, not the present you. The energy behind it is all about alignment- Feeling the emotions of your desired reality now, so you can attract it more easily. Why scripting works: It reprograms your subconscious mind, helping you believe that your goals are possible. When your beliefs shift, your actions and energy naturally align with the version of you who already has what you want. Quick Tips: *Start with “I'm so happy and grateful now that…” *Don't worry about “how” it'll happen focus on the feeling and vision. *Use a special notebook just for scripting to make it sacred and intentional. _________________________________________________________ Follow us on IG: @straightupsistersthepodcast @raqcsworld @lasusie Follow us on YOUTUBE: Straight Up Sisters Podcast For full episodes in AUDIO and VIDEO subscribe to Patreon.com/straightupsisters Email us: hello@straightupsisters.com
Associate Pastor Ron King continues our Ecclesiastes series.Solomon had it all: wealth, wisdom, wine, women, and work. Yet he called it all hevel: vapor, mist, a striving after the wind. In Ecclesiastes 2, we meet a man who tried everything under the sun and still found himself empty.But this isn't just ancient pessimism; it's a timeless invitation to stop grasping for satisfaction in things that can't fulfill you, and to start pursuing God, the only pursuit that lasts, the only One who gives true joy.If you've ever asked, "What's the point?" — this is for you.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on June 15, 2025, at 10:15am.

Will the life you're building truly stand the test of life's inevitable storms? As we conclude our journey through Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, we're confronted with a powerful image: two houses, two builders, two outcomes.Both people heard the same teaching and faced similar challenges, yet one stood firm while the other tragically collapsed.The crucial difference is not merely hearing Jesus' words but choosing to build your life on them slowly, intentionally, and obediently. Let's dig deep beneath the surface, learning how to truly anchor ourselves to the Rock, Jesus Christ, so that when the winds rage and the floods rise, our lives remain unshaken.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on June 1, 2025, at 10:15am.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Woolner is a widely-recognized expert in the functional medicine community, known for helping functional medicine practitioners optimize their practice. With a deep commitment to aiding practitioners across various disciplines—chiropractors, nurse practitioners, medical doctors, and more—he focuses on improving both their clinical outcomes and business success. Dr. Wells is an accomplished figure in the functional medicine industry, committed to revolutionizing how practitioners convert potential clients into patients with effective communication and business strategies. He is renowned for his expertise in patient communication, sales strategies, and developing heart-centered approaches to healthcare. Episode Summary: In this pivotal episode of the Simplified Functional Medicine Podcast, Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells dive deep into the often challenging aspect of sales within the healthcare sector, especially focusing on high-ticket program conversions. They propose a paradigm shift for practitioners who are averse to traditional sales approaches by presenting a framework that makes enrollment as natural and ethical as possible, without the off-putting pressure of conventional sales techniques. The episode explores key strategies for transforming how practitioners approach patient interaction to achieve higher conversion rates for their high-ticket health programs. Highlighting the importance of understanding patients' goals and the role of tension rather than pressure in the sales process, Dr. Woolner and Dr. Wells share invaluable insights on building trust and developing authentic patient-practitioner relationships. Additionally, they discuss the significance of scripting and preparation to turn the potentially intimidating sales conversation into a reassuring and collaborative dialogue. They draw parallels with real estate agents to illustrate effective selling techniques and emphasize creating an alignment between practitioners' offerings and patients' desires. Key Takeaways: Understand the Patient: Take the time to ask open-ended questions to fully understand what the patient wants, beyond mere symptom relief. Scripting is Essential: Properly practiced scripting guides the conversation effectively, sounding natural and confident rather than robotic. Build Trust Early: Making a strong first impression in the initial five minutes with the patient is crucial for building a lasting relationship. Differentiate Pressure from Tension: Pressure seeks escape while tension seeks resolution; operate in a way that establishes natural tension to help patients reach their goals. Align Solutions with Goals: Present solutions that align directly with patients' articulated goals for more successful conversions.

Worship director Justin Jackson continues our Sermon on the Mount series."A wolf in sheep's clothing" is someone who appears harmless but is inwardly destructive. Jesus warns us about false teachers who will come like this, and tells us to be on guard because the ways deception can creep into the truth are subtle.This isn't just about identifying those who might lead us astray; it's a call to examine our own understanding of truth and the path we're choosing to walk. Thankfully, there is a practical way Jesus equips us to discern what's genuine.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on May 18, 2025, at 11:00am.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Sermon on the Mount series.There are moments in life when thinking about decisions isn't enough—when you have to choose. In Matthew 7, Jesus brings us to exactly that crossroads.He presents us with two clear paths: a narrow gate opening to a hard road, leading to real life, or a wide gate leading down an easy road, ultimately ending in ruin. Faith in Jesus isn't just a one-time moment—it's also a continuous journey of choosing to follow Him, even when it's difficult.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Sermon on the Mount series.When people are difficult, Jesus doesn't tell us to avoid them. He calls us to engage with wisdom, grace, and courage. In Matthew 7, we're called to judge without a judgmental heart, pray when we feel stuck, and then act, even when no clear answer comes.And we're not just called to treat others fairly, but to treat them as we would want to be treated when we fall short.

Today, youth pastor Gary Jones continues our Sermon on the Mount series.Ask and you will receive. Is this too good to be true? It's easy to doubt that God is listening sometimes, especially during difficult times.

Lead pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Sermon on the Mount series.Similar to last week's topic of generosity, Jesus calls us to pray in secret. There are many ways we might subtly use prayer or spiritual practices to seek the approval of others, but ultimately this is a poor substitute for a genuine connection with God. Prayer starts with God and ends with us. If we can follow the model of prayer that Jesus gives us, we will have a much greater reward, found in an intimate and vulnerable place of dependence on the God who loves us deeply.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on March 16, 2025, at 9:30am.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Sermon on the Mount series.Have you ever felt secretly thrilled when someone noticed you doing something good? You're quietly reading your Bible or helping someone out—deep down, you're glad someone saw it, even though you didn't intend it. For the last six weeks, we've heard Jesus tell us clearly: Live your life boldly so others see your good deeds and glorify God.But in today's message, Jesus flips the script in his sermon. Suddenly, He says certain things should be hidden, lived quietly, away from public eyes. Why such a dramatic shift? Why does Jesus now tell us to live parts of our lives in secret—and what's at stake if we don't?If you've ever wrestled with the desire to be seen versus the call to humble secrecy, this is for you.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on March 9, 2025, at 9:30am.
