Read OnlineJesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his native place and among his own kin and in his own house.” So he was not able to perform any mighty deed there, apart from curing a few sick people by laying his hands on them. He was amazed at their lack of faith. Mark 6:4–6It's an old expression that “familiarity breeds contempt.” It is often easier to harbor contempt for those closest to us than to offer admiration. This dynamic frequently manifests itself among relatives, neighbors, and friends. The “contempt” might remain subtle, without clear outward expression. Yet, when those close to us are honored, it is often easier to call to mind their faults than to join in their praise. These feelings, if left unchecked, not only harm human relationships but also blinds us to the workings of grace in those closest to us.Today's Gospel tells the story of Jesus returning to His hometown of Nazareth after beginning His public ministry. Soon after He was baptized and emerged from the desert, Jesus began gathering disciples, preaching authoritatively, and performing miracles. Though His ministry began in Capernaum, about twenty miles northeast of Nazareth, word spread quickly about Him, leaving the people of Nazareth uncertain about what to think.When Jesus returned to Nazareth for the first time, He entered the Synagogue and read from the Prophet Isaiah, declaring that the “Spirit of the Lord” was upon Him (cf. Luke 4:18). Mark's version of the event, which we read today, tells us that “many who heard him were astonished.” They asked one another, “‘Is he not the carpenter, the son of Mary…?' And they took offense at him” (Mark 6:2–3).Their refusal to believe stemmed not from Jesus but from their inability to reconcile the Jesus they thought they knew—a carpenter, a local boy—with the Jesus who now spoke with divine wisdom and authority. The reaction of the people of Nazareth reveals the danger of clinging to preconceived notions about others, which blinds us to God's presence in the ordinary.When you consider the people with whom you are familiar, do you exhibit a similar tendency? Do you struggle to recognize Christ at work in family members, friends, or even within yourself? Familiarity can make us dismissive, but it also invites us to look more deeply for the divine, even in what appears humble and mundane. We must approach everyone we know with eyes of faith, searching for the presence of Christ, despite their weaknesses and sins. As Jesus reminds us, “Seek and you will find” (Matthew 7:7). This exhortation extends to seeking Christ in the people around us, especially those closest to us.This can be difficult. We are often tempted to focus on faults rather than goodness in others. The tendency is well illustrated in social media. Sensational and shocking posts draw our attention far more than uplifting and inspiring ones. This reveals the fallen human inclination, much like the people of Nazareth, to reject goodness and the deeper truth we are called to see. We often want others to fail as a way of feeling better about ourselves. Among the people of Nazareth, despite Jesus' perfection, those who knew Him allowed their preconceived judgments to blind them, leading to their rejection of Him as the Messiah. This reaction challenges us to examine our own hearts. How often do we fail to recognize Christ's presence in those closest to us? Reflect today on those closest to you and ponder how easily you seek and find Christ in them. Everyone you know—including yourself—is a sinner. It's easy to find fault and dwell on it, even sometimes when there is no fault to be found—such as with Jesus at Nazareth. Prayerfully reject that fallen human tendency and embrace the mission of seeking Christ in others, for “the one who seeks, finds.” Seek Jesus everywhere and celebrate the Good News of His ongoing presence in our world, especially in the lives of those with whom you are most familiar. My omnipresent Lord, You reveal Yourself to me in countless ways—through the Sacraments, Your holy Word, and the lives of those around me, especially those closest to me. Grant me the grace to seek You each day with faith and love, that I may find You in the hearts and actions of those You have placed in my life. Transform my vision, Lord, so that I may see Your presence even in the ordinary and humbly respond with gratitude and trust.

The difference between agroecology and regenerative agriculture is the deep social change we need in the food and agriculture system. As Laura Ortiz Montemayor told us once "ecology without social justice is just gardening". Million Belay, who leads the Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa, the largest social movement on the African continent, is very clear stop intervening with agriculture on the continent, stop imposing all kinds of rules, practices, seeds, inputs etc, which don't serve in this context (and we could argue in the context we come from as well, how many European banned pesticides are exported to the continent?)We talk about the shut down of the USAID which was actually a good shock to the system. And finally donors, which unfortunately dictate quite a bit the direction, are talking and slowly also acting around agroecology. We discuss how through lobbying they managed to get many countries to adopt agroecology policies in the last few years, what Million would do with a billion dollar and what his message for investors is.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Founder and Head of Product Clint Brauer has developed robots that help reduce—or even eliminate—chemical use while improving the efficiency of farming practices. This innovative approach not only protects workers from exposure to harmful substances but also addresses growing concerns about the safety of food and its environmental impact.Clint's journey began with a deeply personal motivation. “Greenfield comes from my dad,” he explained. “I got Parkinson's years ago, about 20 years ago. And so I decided to do something about it. And I thought it was from farm chemicals.” His mission quickly evolved into creating technology that could solve problems for all farmers, regardless of their stance on chemicals.The robots Clint and his team developed are capable of cutting weeds and providing precise foliar feeding. “We weed by day and we foliar feed by night,” Clint shared. By targeting the stomata of the plants, these robots can deliver nutrients effectively while avoiding the need for excessive synthetic fertilizers. This process not only protects crops but also helps regenerate the soil, creating a more sustainable farming ecosystem.Greenfield Robotics has already seen promising results. Operating in 17 states with about 80 robots in the field, the company is steadily scaling its operations. Clint emphasizes that the work is still in its early stages, but the potential for widespread adoption is clear.In addition to its technological breakthroughs, Greenfield Robotics is raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine. Clint's goal is to make the company a grassroots movement, with farmers and consumers becoming co-owners. “We want farmers and consumers to own Greenfield,” Clint said. “Food is one of the very few things we all share.”By reducing chemical use and fostering a more sustainable future, Clint and his team are paving the way for a revolution in agriculture. It's an inspiring story of innovation and determination, with robots leading the charge for cleaner, healthier food.tl;dr:Greenfield Robotics uses robots to reduce farm chemicals, improving safety, efficiency, and sustainability.Clint Brauer's mission is personal, inspired by his father's Parkinson's diagnosis linked to chemicals.The innovative robots weed and feed crops, helping farmers transition to regenerative practices.Greenfield Robotics is scaling operations and raising capital via StartEngine crowdfunding.Clint's relentless perseverance drives his mission to revolutionize agriculture for farmers and consumers alike.Guest ProfileClint Brauer (he/him):Founder & Head of Product, Greenfield RoboticsAbout Greenfield Robotics: Greenfield Robotics is revolutionizing weed control with autonomous farming robots designed to reduce operational and maintenance costs while removing herbicides from the process. Demand has been exceptional: Our entire fleet is sold out this year and with reservations already filled for 2026, our BOTONY™ fleet of robots is helping drive our mission to eliminate all chemicals from farming and food.Website: greenfieldincorporated.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/greenfieldroboticsInstagram Handle: @greenfieldrobotics Other URL: startengine.com/offering/greenfield-roboticsBiographical Information: Clint is a third-generation regenerative farmer turned agtech entrepreneur, with deep roots in Midwest agriculture and a career spanning both broad-acre and greenhouse growing. Before returning fully to farming, he was an early data science systems pioneer at Sony, where he helped launch Sony's e-book systems in North America. He later bridged technology and agriculture by creating a regeneratively grown ingredients supply chain for Canidae Pet Food, proving that scalable, soil-first farming models can succeed inside global consumer brands.Clint's work is deeply personal. His father developed Parkinson's disease after years of chemical exposure on their family farm and ultimately passed away from it—a tragedy echoed across the Midwest, where Parkinson's rates among farmers over 50 have reached epidemic levels linked to long-term herbicide and pesticide use. Greenfield Robotics was born from this reality and a single driving question: What if we could farm without poisoning the people who feed us? Today, Clint is building technology to remove toxic chemicals from agriculture, protecting farmers, restoring soil, and redefining what modern farming can—and must—be.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/clintbrauerThe Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation, is proud to have been named a finalist in the media category of the impact-focused, global Bold Awards.Support Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

Eric addresses the psychological hurdles and financial risks contractors face when refusing professional guidance. He argues that while many business owners believe they can figure it out alone, this independent path often results in wasted time, lost profit margins, and severe personal strain. By collapsing time, coaching allows operators to avoid repetitive mistakes and move from being merely "good" to achieving intentional growth. He uses real-world examples, such as social media messaging and pricing strategies, to demonstrate how small shifts in perspective can yield significant returns. The episode serves as an invitation for contractors to prioritize their time and health by investing in mentorship rather than learning everything the hard way. Key Takeaways: Stop trying to figure everything out on your own and instead learn from the experiences of others to collapse the time it takes to reach your goals. Shift your messaging from being about yourself and your needs to focusing on how you provide value and serve your community or clients. Reevaluate your schedule to recognize that a lack of time is often a priority problem that can be solved by removing friction and focusing on proactive growth. Strive for greatness rather than settling for being "good enough," as true success involves creating opportunities and a bigger vision for those who work for you. Seek outside perspectives to identify the personal and professional blind spots that you are unable to see on your own.
"I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak; and the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them in justice." Ezekiel 34:16

During today's episode, Sharon shared the remarkable journey of her company, including how it raised $3.8 million in funding and acquired a groundbreaking stroke rehabilitation startup, Imago Rehab.Sharon explained that their success stems from a commitment to creating solutions that improve lives. “It's about really making connections and growing community with like-minded people who understand mission-driven businesses that work for good as well as doing good,” she said. This philosophy helped Health Care Originals achieve groundbreaking milestones, including closing a $1.1 million Reg CF round and securing significant venture capital investments.The acquisition of Imago Rehab exemplifies Sharon's vision. The startup, which develops robotic gloves for stroke rehabilitation using Harvard-developed technology, aligns perfectly with Health Care Originals' mission to deliver tech-enabled healthcare solutions. “We saw in Imago Rehab the kinds of therapies my grandma needed after her stroke. It resonated deeply with me,” Sharon said. The deal, she explained, was also about ensuring the technology reached those who need it most, a value shared by the company's lead investors.Sharon also highlighted how their impact extends to respiratory health. Shortly after winning the SuperCrowdLA awards, Health Care Originals became the exclusive respiratory care provider for a health coalition representing 400,000 lives. The company's ability to integrate proprietary hardware, AI, and specialized therapy continues to drive growth and innovation.For those inspired by mission-driven entrepreneurship, Sharon's story provides a roadmap. By combining purpose and perseverance, Health Care Originals isn't just a company—it's a movement. If you're interested in supporting their journey, consider exploring their offerings or participating in their crowdfunding efforts.tl;dr:Health Care Originals raised $3.8 million, including $1.1 million through a crowdfunding campaign.The company acquired Imago Rehab, a startup developing robotic gloves for stroke rehabilitation.Sharon outlined how mission-driven innovation drives their impact-focused healthcare solutions.Sharon's superpower, resilience, has been key to overcoming challenges and driving the company forward.Health Care Originals integrates AI, hardware, and therapy to deliver transformative healthcare solutions.How to Develop Resilience As a SuperpowerSharon describes her superpower as resilience—her ability to persevere and overcome challenges without giving up. Reflecting on this trait, she shared, “What has become evident to me over the last year is that I don't give up.” Sharon's unyielding determination has been pivotal in navigating the hurdles of leading a startup, from raising capital to acquiring and integrating other businesses. Her ability to stay focused and committed to her mission, even in the face of adversity, defines her approach to entrepreneurship.One powerful example of Sharon's resilience came from her first job as the only female engineer in a 50-year-old, failing factory with outdated equipment. Despite the challenges, she worked tirelessly to restore operations, eventually increasing production by 33%. The validation of her efforts came from the factory's furnace designer, who recognized her unique understanding of the process and her unwavering commitment to improvement.To develop resilience, Sharon suggests finding a clear purpose and staying passionate about what drives you. She explains, “If you find something you're sure you want to do and it makes you happy, it helps you to not give up.” She also emphasizes the importance of staying grounded and resisting the urge to let past experiences cloud your judgment.By following Sharon's example and advice, you can make resilience a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

I'm excited to welcome Ryan Sternagle for a two-part series. Ryan is the father of a child diagnosed with neuroblastoma shortly before his first birthday. Their family navigated an incredibly challenging journey and is now committed to educating others to support the body's natural healing processes. Ryan hosted the Anti-Cancer Revolution, a movement that empowers individuals with integrative strategies to prevent and fight cancer by combining nutrition, lifestyle changes, and cutting-edge science, promoting a holistic, evidence-based approach to healing and wellness. In Part 1 today, Ryan shares their family's story, and we begin exploring the foundations of health. What you can do when something feels wrong — even if you're told it isn't: Notice when multiple “small” concerns start forming a pattern Ask for objective testing instead of verbal reassurance Stay calm but be persistent when explanations don't align with your instincts Seek a second opinion Keep a clear record of your concerns to avoid having them minimized or reframed Bio: Ryan Sternagle Ryan Sternagel is the cofounder, along with his wife, Teddy, of The Stern Method, a platform informing and inspiring families preventing or reversing cancer to succeed on all fronts. In May of 2014, their son Ryder was diagnosed with stage four neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer of the nervous system, eleven days before his first birthday. Through an integrative approach leaving nothing on the table, and ridding their lives of all possible causes, including building a non-toxic house in the middle of the woods, today Ryder is thriving. Through continually seeking out and interviewing the world's top integrative cancer doctors to stay up to date, their Going Integrative Plus member community, and Our Health Naturally supplement line, The Sternagels have committed their lives to making healing and prevention easier for others than it was for them. In this episode: The early signs that were easy to dismiss — until they weren't How Ryan's initial instincts clashed with the medical reassurance he received How that reassurance obscured patterns that only began to make sense in hindsight What it's like to push for answers when no one else is alarmed How the situation suddenly shifted from prolonged uncertainty to medical urgency The benefits of being proactive How everything shifted once the care was individualized rather than standardized Links and Resources: https://yourlongevityblueprint.com/product/glutathione-60-ct/ Use code BIND to get 10% off ENVIROBIND Use code TURMERIC to get 10% off TURMERIC Guest Social Media Links: The Stern Method Relative Links for This Show: Going Integrative + Membership: Use the discount code: BLUEPRINT50 for 50% off the first month subscription Our Health Naturally-Time-sensitive Podcast Special Deal: Use the code BLUEPRINT20 for 20% off during the 2 weeks after podcast launch OR use the code BLUEPRINT for 10% off, ongoing Follow Your Longevity Blueprint On Instagram| Facebook| Twitter| YouTube | LinkedIn Get your copy of the Your Longevity Blueprint book and claim your bonuses here Find Dr. Stephanie Gray and Your Longevity Blueprint online Follow Dr. Stephanie Gray On Facebook| Instagram| Youtube | Twitter | LinkedIn Integrative Health and Hormone Clinic Podcast production by Team Podcast

Shame will cause you to hide. It will paralyze you. It will keep you from living your life with purpose and will hold you back from all the amazing things that God has planned for you! Shame isolates and convinces you that you are the only one in your situation. Eric and Gena challenge us all in this episode to seek the help needed—-in every area of life; whether it's in marriage, parenting, or just navigating the challenges of home and family life. Be intentional about seeking help when you know it's needed!
In this episode, Jesus reminds us of the Father's great love for us and tells us to ask for what we need!
Change demands more than motivation; it requires renewal that begins at the heart and reshapes how we think, speak, and act. Trace that living rhythm through Scripture: seasons in Ecclesiastes, Sabbath rest for the land, and the sound of Jubilee that announces release and return. From there, we wrestle with Jesus' promise and warning in John 15—pruning hurts, but it is how fruit multiplies—and we press into why so many of us resist the very shifts that make growth possible.Together we unpack the parable of new wine and new skins, confronting the hard truth that yesterday's habits can't carry today's anointing. Paul's guidance frames a pathway: put away bitterness and corrosive speech, be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, renewed in knowledge after the image of Christ. We also acknowledge an all-too-common trap that derails many: mistaking a past move of God for a permanent resting place. The river keeps flowing; comfort can turn into an eddy that spins us in circles while we think we're moving forward.What does faithfulness look like on the ground? Prepare for the next season with simple, concrete steps. Keep asking, seeking, and knocking. Seek humble companions who still hunger for the living God and build small, sturdy communities where repentance comes quickly and obedience is normal. Renewal is not a one-time surge but a daily exchange: shed the old, receive the new, and stay light enough to move when the Spirit shifts like the wind."Message Our Father's Heart a Question or Response"Support the showThank you so much for listening and sharing with others!

Welcome to episode #255!
Ask the hard questions. The narratives that are shaping our matrix reality are not of God, but from the forces that seek to divide and rule. We are rallying behind the bi-polar narratives that amplify our biases not the love of God. We need to recognize the emotions within us that are being manipulated to provoke reactions. Truth is the center point, truth is the rock, truth only comes from a relationship in God. Chaos is the tool of men, to divide and conquer. Truth is rooted in love, and is the force that binds us in the body of Christ. Seek truth in all things, no matter how uncomfortable that makes you within the groups you are part of. #BardsFM_Morning #SeekTruth #TheWisdomOfChrist Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

What is needed to truly move the needle on health? Create more research, more trials on nutrient density, more advocacy? Or, as Martin Reiter, founder of RARE argues, create the next regen Nestlé or Unilever: a 100 billion (yes, that's a B) regenerative consumer goods conglomerate, with only better-for-you and better-for-the-planet brands. The demand is there; the current incumbents are unable to innovate in regen, as they are built on chemical ingredients.The story usually goes like this: a group of people sets up a food (or cosmetics) brand that is better for you and better for the planet. Much better ingredients, honest sourcing, actually healthy, not UPF, etc. Then they need some money and raise funds, keep building, scaling, and at some point, 10–15 years down the road, the founders get tired and want to take some money off the table. and their existing investors need to get out and return money to their LPs.Currently, their only option is to sell to an incumbent, which then unfortunately usually screws it up. They start tweaking the ingredients, squeezing farmer margins, etc. The original founders leave after a few frustrating years.Is there a better way? A permanent home for regen, good-for-you, good-for-the-planet brands? A regen Nestlé or Unilever, if you will?More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

During today's episode, Richard explained his compelling vision for a community built on intentional mutual benefit—a concept that resonates deeply with me.Richard's new book, Birthing the Symbiotic Age, is the culmination of over two decades of work, blending personal experience, community organizing, and a belief in the interconnectedness of humanity and nature. He challenges the idea that we are separate, saying, “We're actually all connected…within our families, neighborhoods, local communities, nations, and worldwide.”This intentional mutual benefit, as Richard describes it, is a culture where every action, thought, and decision considers its impact on others. It's about making connection a core value, from small personal interactions to global systems. Richard explained, “Symbiotic culture…is a culture in which intentional mutual benefit between human beings and with nature becomes the norm at all scales.”He draws from practical experience, sharing stories of community transformation. Richard recounted his involvement in initiatives like the Nevada Micro-Enterprise Initiative, which provided low-income entrepreneurs with seed funding, mentorship, and technical assistance. These efforts exemplify his belief that mutual benefit can underpin economic and social systems, creating a “virtuous economy.”This vision aligns beautifully with the principles of impact crowdfunding, where investors and entrepreneurs unite to create positive change. Richard's work shows how embedding intentional mutual benefit into our economy has the power to transform not only individual lives but entire communities.Richard's book, Birthing the Symbiotic Age, offers a roadmap for rebuilding our culture with love and connection at its heart. As he said, “When we engage the world, we are coming from that deeper connected perspective.”For those interested in this vision, Richard's book is available at richardflyer.com. By embracing his ideas, we can take steps toward realizing this symbiotic age together.tl;dr:Richard Flyer shares a 20-year journey to create a symbiotic culture of intentional mutual benefit.He explains how his book, Birthing the Symbiotic Age, challenges the myth of separation in society.Richard highlights community-building efforts, including crime reduction and micro-financing initiatives.He describes his superpower: recognizing the intrinsic divinity or goodness in every individual.Richard provides actionable advice for fostering connection and building a culture of mutual benefit.How to Develop Recognizing the Divinity in Others As a SuperpowerRichard's superpower is the ability to see the divinity—or intrinsic goodness—in everyone. He explained, “The superpower is to see the truth that we're all made in the image of God…underneath all of the apparent polarization.” This perspective allows him to bridge divides and unite communities, focusing on the shared humanity that connects us all. Richard emphasized that this principle applies universally, regardless of one's spiritual or secular beliefs, making it a powerful tool for fostering connection and collaboration.Richard shared a transformative story of overcoming his personal biases to unite his community. In Reno, Nevada, he recognized his antipathy toward religious organizations was limiting his ability to include them in community-building efforts. To address this, he spent a year visiting various religious and spiritual groups, from Christian churches to Buddhist sanghas. This experience helped him see individuals beyond their labels, fostering greater understanding and collaboration. This shift enabled him to unite diverse groups to address shared challenges.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Attend events hosted by organizations or people you may disagree with to foster understanding.Practice small, intentional acts of kindness, such as holding the door open for others.Consciously remind yourself of the shared humanity in everyone, even those with opposing views.Reflect on personal biases and take steps to overcome them for greater connection.By following Richard's example and advice, you can make recognizing the divinity in others a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

It integrates insights from community development, economics, spirituality and faith traditions, and living systems to help people move beyond polarization toward shared purpose and practical collaboration. Rather than advancing ideology or top-down solutions, Symbiotic Culture emphasizes connecting the good already present in local communities—linking people, initiatives, and institutions so they can work together more effectively through shared values and virtues such as trust, mutual responsibility, and care. The work holds that lasting social renewal is both practical and spiritual, beginning not with systems alone but with people learning how to live, work, and solve problems together in meaningful ways.Website: richardflyer.comBiographical Information: Richard Flyer is an author, community-builder, and faith-rooted cultural strategist whose life's work bridges science, spirituality, and civic renewal. Trained as a biologist, he studied pilot whale and dolphin communication at UC Santa Cruz and San Diego State before earning an M.S. in Biology. His grounding in living systems science later became the foundation for Symbiotic Culture—a framework that integrates spiritual insight with practical tools for regenerative community life.Richard's career spans health, education, and grassroots leadership. He pioneered hyperbaric oxygen therapy programs in Nevada hospitals, taught in community colleges and detention facilities, and led nonprofits including the San Diego Food Bank, Neighbors United, and the Nevada Microenterprise Initiative. Internationally, he served with Sri Lanka's Sarvodaya Shramadana movement, supporting a national network of over 5,000 communities. His work draws inspiration from Jesus and the early church, Gandhi's village republics, and Václav Benda's idea of the Parallel Polis.For Richard, following Jesus is not about dogma, but about daily practice—learning to embody love, reconciliation, hospitality, and neighborliness in a divided world. He sees in Jesus not only the center of his faith, but a bridge across traditions, calling people into deeper connection and shared responsibility.Today, through Symbiotic Culture, Richard mentors leaders across faith, civic, and cultural spheres. In Birthing the Symbiotic Age, he offers a vision for a Global Commonwealth of 50,000 empowered communities—a parallel society rooted in love, justice, and mutual flourishing. He lives on O‘ahu, Hawaii with his wife Marta, drawing renewal from the islands, time with family, and the simple joy of Connecting the Good wherever he goes.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/richard-flyer-6820727Personal Twitter Handle: @Richard_Flyer Personal Facebook Profile: facebook.com/richard.flyerInstagram Handle: @richard.flyerSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

What are you known for—your job, your strengths, your quirks? In this episode, we dig into a different kind of reputation, the kind Acts 4:13 highlights when leaders recognized Peter and John had been with Jesus. Their courage didn't come from status or training; it flowed from their relationship with Him. As we walk through Acts 3–4, we follow the moment a lame man stood, a crowd gathered, and two ordinary fishermen stood firm before the Sanhedrin with Spirit-given clarity.We share a simple, life-giving rhythm that anchors everything we do at Family Disciple Me: Seek Him Speak Him. Seek Him means opening Scripture, asking honest questions, and lingering with God until His Word meets your life. Speak Him means letting that fresh encounter overflow into conversations with the people God has entrusted to you—kids, friends, roommates, neighbors. No scripts. No pressure. Just the natural spillover of time with Jesus. Along the way, we connect this rhythm with Philippians 1:20, naming a vision for unashamed boldness that holds steady under pressure and shines in ordinary moments.If you've ever felt too common, too busy, or too underqualified to make a spiritual impact, this conversation reframes the story. God uses ordinary people. Presence becomes courage. Devotion becomes discipleship. By the end, you'll have practical next steps for opening the Bible, listening for God's voice, and carrying that truth into simple, meaningful conversations that shape homes, friendships, and communities.Ready to be known for time with Jesus—and to make Him known? Listen now, share this with someone who needs courage today, and subscribe for more devotion-driven discipleship. If this encouraged you, leave a review and tell us the one step you'll take this week to seek Him and speak Him.______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world. We believe that discipleship starts with a conversation, and FDM provides free, easily-accessible, biblical resources to encourage these meaningful conversations along life's way.

Ever notice how we can gush about a great meal or a new show, yet freeze when it's time to talk about Jesus? We open that tension with a straight path forward: boldness doesn't start with a megaphone, it starts with presence. Walking through Acts 4, we sit with Peter and John as they heal a man, face arrest, and announce the line that still shakes timid hearts today: we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.We share how this kind of courage grows from a simple, repeatable rhythm: Seek Him Speak Him. That means leaning into Scripture with practical prompts, lingering long enough to hear God's voice, and letting that overflow spill into natural conversations with the people entrusted to us. You'll hear why boldness is leadership, not loudness, and how everyday discipleship can move from forced to fluent. We also tackle common barriers—fear of awkwardness, not knowing enough, or worrying about pushback—and offer clear steps that make faith talk feel honest and inviting.Along the way, we connect key passages like Psalm 107:2 and 1 John 1:3, show how presence produces clarity, and how clarity makes courage reasonable. You'll leave with language you can use today, from simple questions that turn reading into dialogue to ideas for sharing your story with a child, spouse, friend, or neighbor. Ready to be known for time with Jesus and to make Him known in your world? Press play, try the companion conversation guide, and tell us who you'll speak with this week.

Tuesday of the Third Week in Ordinary Time
If you've been told your failed IVF cycle was "just bad luck" or blamed on "egg quality," that explanation is incomplete. Bad luck is not a diagnosis. It simply means the underlying biological patterns have not yet been identified. IVF is a technical process that happens in a lab, but embryos still develop inside a living biological environment. If inflammation, energy production, immune signaling, or sperm DNA integrity are compromised, no protocol change alone can override that physiology. Repeating cycles without deeper interpretation often leads to the same outcomes, higher costs, and more emotional exhaustion. In this episode, I walk through the three biological patterns I consistently see behind embryo arrest, poor blast development, failed transfers, and unexplained IVF failure. More importantly, you'll learn how to use your past cycles as meaningful data so you can stop guessing and start making more strategic decisions before another round. In this episode, you'll learn: Why a technically "perfect" IVF cycle can still fail despite good labs and protocols How low cellular energy production impacts embryo development and early growth Why sperm DNA fragmentation often matters long before clinics flag it as abnormal How oxidative stress, inflammation, hormonal signaling, and metabolic strain influence embryo quality How to interpret repeated IVF outcomes instead of labeling them as unexplained or bad luck I'm Sarah Clark, founder of Fab Fertile and host of Get Pregnant Naturally. For over a decade, my team and I have reviewed hundreds of low AMH and failed IVF cases using functional testing alongside conventional fertility care. We specialize in helping couples identify the physiological patterns driving poor outcomes so decisions are grounded in interpretation, not guesswork. This episode is for you if: You've experienced embryo arrest, failed transfers, or repeated IVF cycles without clear answers You've been told everything looks "normal" but results keep falling short You want a smarter way to evaluate what your body is signaling before investing in another cycle
Homeschooling is exploding across the US, while public school enrollments fall. The state's response? $1 billion toward systems like homeschooling vouchers. Kevin and Danny discuss the problems of "free money"…becoming dependent on government rather than God…how funding inevitably leads to regulation and control…the precautionary history of countries like Sweden and the UK…and the danger of Title IX applying to any education funded by government money.
Today's Passage: Psalm 27The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh,my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall.Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear;though war arise against me, yet I will be confident.One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after:that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble;he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will lift me high upon a rock.And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me,and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy;I will sing and make melody to the Lord.Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud; be gracious to me and answer me!You have said, “Seek my face.”My heart says to you, “Your face, Lord, do I seek.”Hide not your face from me.Turn not your servant away in anger, O you who have been my help.Cast me not off; forsake me not, O God of my salvation!For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord will take me in.Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies.Give me not up to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence.I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living!Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!NOTES & LINKS:21 Days of Prayer & Fasting WebsiteSubscribe to the 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting NewsletterPDF Guide to Prayer & FastingAs Part of the 21 Days, we are committing to 24/7 prayer during this time.

The price of an ounce of gold surged past $5,100 on Monday as investors flock to precious metals and away from currency and treasury markets. The trend underlines growing global uncertainty fuelled by debt concerns, US President Donald Trump's attacks on the Federal Reserve and general geopolitical uncertainty. Also in this edition, Canadian PM Mark Carney says he has "no intention" of pursuing a free trade agreement with China. Finally, a plush toy horse with a frown could be the star of the upcoming Lunar New Year.

Send us a textEXPECTATION VS. REALITYDisappointment with Myself | Part 4Senior Pastor Keith StewartJanuary 25, 2026Many of us carry regret over past decisions, failures, or missed opportunities—and we're often harder on ourselves than anyone else. In “Disappointment With Myself” (Expectations vs Reality – Part 4), Pastor Keith Stewart explores why our past keeps intruding on our present and how the gospel frees us from shame, false guilt, and self-condemnation. You'll discover why God is not disappointed in you and how real change begins by accepting God's acceptance. If you're ready to stop living under regret and start living from grace, this message is for you.1. What part of the message felt most “for you” right now, why? 2. Which kind of backward-looking thinking do you struggle with most: woulda (decisions), coulda (failures), or shoulda (expectations)? What does it typically sound like in your head? 3. The message distinguishes examination from rumination. What's a practical sign that you've crossed the line from learning to self-punishing? 4. Where do you most feel false guilt (expectations from others, old “shoulds,” perfectionism)? How can you tell the difference between conviction and condemnation in your own experience? 5. The message says, “God is never disappointed,” because disappointment includes surprise and frustration. How does that idea challenge or heal your view of God? What makes it hard to believe? 6. What does it look like, concretely, to “send your past packing” this week? (One habit, one conversation, one confession, one boundary, one step of repair.) 7. “Seek progress, not perfection.” Where do you need to apply that in your spiritual life, relationships, habits, or recovery? 8. “Before we can become who we will be in Christ, we must accept who we are in Christ.” What's one identity statement from Scripture you need to rehearse daily right now?
This week, we finish our New City DNA series. In Hebrews 13, the author reminds believers to place our hope in Christ and seek the city that is to come. Pastor Eric shares three points from the text: 1) Jesus is our strength, not this world (13:8-9). 2) The sacrifice of Jesus is our model to follow in this world (13:10-12). 3) Proper worship moves us to radical sacrifice.

Episode Summary:There is no ambiguity about what Jesus told us was to consume our lives as our top priority. He says, “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.” The Greek verb “to seek” means, to strive after, to desire. It is the opposite of being lackadaisical, indifferent, or nonchalant. It is pursuit that is self-motivated, intentional and passionate. The word “first” indicates that Jesus is telling us to make this pursuit the all-consuming top priority of our lives. In context, this verse is about being preoccupied. We are to be pre-occupied with spreading Christ's agenda of righteousness and restoration over the earth.As we saw last week, Nehemiah became a man who was consumed with God's agenda, in his case the restoration of the wall around the city of Jerusalem. In this episode we see that when you adopt God's agenda, he will provide the resources needed to accomplish it. For Further Prayerful Thought:Can you relate to Nehemiah praying intensely for the wall to be rebuilt and seeing God do nothing? What have you learned about overcoming discouragement in prayer?It's not stated explicitly but surely looks like Nehemiah had built a very strong relationship of servanthood and loyalty to Artaxerxes. What pieces of evidence do you see in the text that suggest such a strong relationship?Contrast the loyalty and respect for authority required of God's people and shown by Nehemiah to cultural Marxism's worldview that labels all authority figures oppressors. Where do you see the seeds of cultural Marxism in our culture? In the church?Which insights from Nehemiah do you most want to remember in seeking to implement Christ's agenda of righteousness in your spheres of influence?
