We start our sixth week of our 7-week series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with five quotes on the theme of "Teamwork."No matter what you do or where you go in life after your experience in sports, chances are that you will always be part of some kind of team. The concepts of a team will be involved in so many different aspects of your life - work, sports, clubs, church, families - to name a few. The camaraderie of a team will be something you will continue to experience long after you are done playing sports. You will always be part of groups that are bigger than just yourself. While individual success and accolades are fun and exciting, there is nothing quite like being part of a successful team. Enjoy all of the team experiences you are fortunate enough to be a part of now and in your future. I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate." Both are gift books for coaches or parents to give to their senior athletes. "Inspiration for the Graduate" makes for a great graduation gift, and "Senior Salute" is a great gift to give on Senior Night or at the End-of-Season Banquet. Each book is filled with quotes based on various Team Themes that, hopefully, the coaches have talked with and worked on with their teams at some point in the season.Also, please consider becoming a supporter of the show.

Hold yourself accountable so that nobody else has to.We finish our fifth week of our 7-week series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with four more quotes on the theme of "Accountability."Accountability is about being responsible for your actions. An accountable person can be counted on to do the right thing. People consider you to be accountable if they expect you will take care of what needs to be done for you and your team to be successful, even if nobody is watching. Accountability builds trust between teammates because they know they can count on each other to get their jobs done. I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate."

Join us as Pastor Bob starts us off on a new Sermon Series entitled "Culture Shock!" We will discover that Jesus modeled and taught a whole new culture for leadership in the Kingdom of God. 

Pastor Stephen Martin hosts Pastor Rob McCoy for an engaging Q&A session that addresses the real questions Christians face in today's culture. Recorded live at Vintage Church, this conversation provides biblical clarity and practical wisdom on some of the most challenging topics believers encounter.TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE:- Charlie Kirk's servant leadership legacy and its eternal impact- Christian nationalism: Biblical perspective on loving Christ and country- The power of love as the ultimate apologetic weapon- How to share your faith naturally without being preachy- The essential elements of making disciples who make disciples- Why praying for your enemies transforms both parties- Building biblical confidence in hostile workplace environments- Breaking down barriers through genuine questions and listening- Why your words are a direct reflection of your heart- Living in the world but not of the world in a divided culturePastor Rob shares compelling stories—from Elon Musk at Charlie Kirk's memorial service to unexpected divine appointments in auto repair shops—that demonstrate how servant-hearted evangelism breaks down every barrier. You'll discover practical strategies for workplace witness, the developmental window for teaching children, and why genuine relationship is the foundation of effective discipleship.Whether you're navigating cultural pressure, looking for natural ways to share your faith, or building a biblical framework for engaging controversial topics, this Q&A delivers Scripture-based answers for real-world challenges. Perfect for your morning commute or workout—equipping you with the confidence you need for whatever battles you'll face today.Scripture References: Matthew 6:19-21, Philippians 4, Matthew 28:19-20, 2 Timothy 2:15, Matthew 5:44, Ephesians 4:29, Proverbs 4:23, James 1:19-20New episodes drop Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 7 AM CT. Subscribe now and never miss the biblical wisdom you need to cut through cultural noise and stand firm in your faith.

Today we're discussing the debate between feminists and non-feminists, and why I side with the non-feminists for biblical reasons. Just because women can do some of what men do doesn't mean we should. We'll also continue discussing the Charlie Kirk case, Erika Kirk's strange behavior, why being a widow doesn't automatically make you innocent, and why it's deeply concerning that TPUSA refuses to distance itself from Israel, even as Charlie's final words publicly challenged Israel, Judaism, and the control of figures like Ben Shapiro over the conservative movement.

Welcome back, friends, to Fishing Without Bait: A Lifetime Without Definitive Expectations. In Episode 490, Jim Ellermeyer and producer Mike Sorg explore what leadership truly means through the lens of Jesus of Nazareth. From the radical humility and servant leadership he modeled 2,000 years ago to his timeless call for justice and compassion, Jim examines how these teachings apply to the world's political and social climate today. This thoughtful conversation covers: • How Jesus's example challenges modern power and ego • The moral responsibility of leaders to serve everyone—not just their supporters • Why integrity, honesty, and empathy are essential in times of division • The enduring wisdom of “Blessed are the peacemakers” and “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” Jim also reflects on the story of the Good Samaritan and closes with a reminder that hope—and helping others—remains our greatest prescription.

In this episode, we explore how the servant leadership model provides the relational and even spiritual groundwork needed to create high-capacity schools where both staff and students can flourish. Listen in as Linda sits down with Matthew Flippen from Gracelyn University to unpack how servant leadership reshapes the way we think about influence, trust, and community in education. 00:00 Introduction to Servant Leadership in Education 01:04 Building Trust and Relationships 03:52 Transformational Leadership Stories 11:10 Creating a Shared Vision 16:01 Empowering Teachers and Future Leaders 18:27 Gracelyn University and Teacher Training Resources/Links Mentioned: Win With Your Talent Pipeline: Ensuring All Children Have Incredible Teachers : https://www.amazon.com/Win-Your-Talent-Pipeline-Incredible-ebook/dp/B0FS9KFGPQ Transformational Educators Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@TransformationalEducators Gracelyn University: https://www.Gracelyn.edu

What if the fastest way to unlock performance isn't to lead louder, but to host better? We sit down with best-selling author Steve Fortunato to rethink leadership through the lens of hospitality—not the restaurant kind, the human kind. Steve reveals why so much “look at me” leadership creates a vicious cycle of entitlement, and how the host mindset flips the script to “look at you,” building trust, engagement, and shared ownership.We dig into three practical principles you can apply today. First, speak the good: start by changing the inner voice you lead from, then actively name strengths in colleagues, clients, and your company to counter negativity bias and build momentum. Second, honor the other: elevate dignity with real curiosity, mine for the gold, and apply what you learn through personalized recognition, better questions, and tailored support. Third, earn respect, don't expect it: stand in their shoes to understand pressures and constraints, and pursue reconciliation when things go wrong so relationships are restored, not just transactions.Throughout the conversation, Steve connects leadership and hospitality with vivid stories: power dynamics that make customers feel “lucky to be here,” the ecosystem of value that requires giving before getting, and how small hosting rituals—clear openings, inviting voices, pronouncing names right, closing loops—quietly transform culture. We close with a simple loop to keep you improving: celebrate what worked, then pick one thing to refine next time. If you're ready to trade performative heroics for meaningful hosting, this one will change how you run meetings, lead projects, and serve customers.

Here's a notable episode with guest Mr. John McGarry, who spoke on campus for an informative general assembly. He is the Assistant Special Agent in Charge with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration in the Milwaukee District Office. A deployment with the U.S. Marine Corps to Columbia, South America, aroused his desire to become a DEA agent and facilitated his goal of joining something bigger than himself to give back to this country what his immigrant parents received. He and host Dr. Matt Davis discuss 9/11 from John's perspective at Quantico. They talk about leadership as epitomized in the Marine motto (lead by example) and the need for compassion. Then the subject turns to the threats spawned by synthetics drugs, particularly fentanyl. He explains the history, the complexity of the “war on drugs,” and its permeation of all societal levels. John describes the seemingly unachievable mission of using law enforcement to reduce demand in the illegal drug trade when we are the prime consumers. He compares the staggering numbers of drug-related deaths to Al-Qaeda-associated murders. Finally, he articulates that emulating Jesus Christ motivates his perseverance.

Darryl Wright: When Enthusiasm Became Interference—Learning to Listen as a Scrum Master Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Wait stands for Why Am I Talking? Just ask yourself, wait, why am I talking? Is this the right moment for you to give an idea, or is this the right moment to just listen and let them have space to come up with ideas?" - Darryl Wright   Early in his Agile journey, Darryl was evangelically enthusiastic about the principles and practices that had transformed his approach to leadership. He believed he had discovered the answers people were seeking, and his excitement manifested in a problematic pattern—he talked too much. Constantly jumping in with solutions, ideas, and suggestions, Darryl dominated conversations without realizing the impact. Then someone pulled him aside with a generous gift: "You're not really giving other people time to come up with ideas or take ownership of a problem."  They introduced him to WAIT—Why Am I Talking?—an acronym that would fundamentally shift his coaching approach. This simple tool forced Darryl to pause before speaking and examine his motivations. Was he trying to prove himself? Did he think he knew better? Or was this genuinely the right moment to contribute? As he practiced this technique, Darryl discovered something profound: when he held space and waited, others would eventually step forward with insights and solutions.  The concept of "small enough to try, safe enough to fail" became his framework for deciding when to intervene. Not every moment requires a Scrum Master to step in—sometimes the most powerful coaching happens in silence. By developing better skills in active listening and learning to hold space for others, Darryl transformed from someone who provided all the answers into someone who created the conditions for shared leadership to emerge.   In this episode, we refer to David Marquet's episodes on the podcast for practical techniques on holding space and enabling leadership in others.   Self-reflection Question: When was the last time you caught yourself jumping in with a solution before giving your team space to discover it themselves? What would happen if you waited just five more minutes?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Howard Behar, who as President took Starbucks from 28 stores to more than 15,000 across five continents. realized early on that impactful leadership is about accepting limitations. "I couldn't control everything. It was impossible." He literally flipped the script, embracing a simple, powerful servant leader approach focused on a constant curiosity and asking questions. "We weren't in the coffee business serving people. We were in the people business serving coffee." It was hard to get fired for missing your numbers. But mess with people? You were done. Empowerment in a growth environment is everything. "Let the person who sweeps the floor choose the broom." Be the servant leader who helps your people grow as humans, help them grow as professionals and help their achieve their personal goals in life.

Toughness is a quality that will get you through things that you wouldn't stand a chance at getting through without it.We finish up the third week of our series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with 5 more quotes on the theme of "Toughness."You will be faced with all kinds of challenges in your life. Some will require you to be physically tough - dealing with weather elements or getting physically hurt in some way. Others will force you to dig deep and find a toughness inside of you that tells you to keep going, don't give up, and fight to the bitter end. No matter what the situation is, the person that has the toughness and the perseverance to keep going, keep fighting, and never give up will always have the best chance at success. This week's episodes will all deal with this kind of toughness.I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate."

We want your feedback and questions. Text us here.Servant leadership isn't a trendy management buzzword. It's a timeless principle that transforms teams and organizations from the inside out. At its core, servant leadership is about empowering your people. But when leaders confuse service with softness, they slip into passive leadership, avoiding tough conversations, lowering standards, and calling it humility. In this episode, you'll learn how this subtle shift destroys culture, erodes trust, drags performance down across the board, and what to do instead.

The Foundation of Belief-Driven Leadership Introduction: What is culture, really? In this conversation, Matt Marcotte—who's led teams at Apple, Salesforce, and Bergdorf Goodman—helps us move past the buzzwords. We talk about why belief is the difference between teams that comply and teams that commit, why uncertainty makes this more critical than ever, and how leaders can stop trying to be the hero and start creating environments where people bring their best. Summary: Matt introduces his new book Built on Belief and explains why he pivoted from frameworks to focus on the real competitive advantage: belief. We explore how belief transforms into commitment versus compliance, why leaders feel pressure to have all the answers (and why that's wrong), and the importance of clarity around what your organization actually believes. Matt shares the "heart, head, hands" framework and explains why people feel first, think second, then act—and how leaders need to work with that reality, not against it. Key Highlights: Culture comes down to two things: how people act and what they believe Belief is the "magic elixir" for fighting uncertainty in today's business environment The myth of the hero leader: your success is predicated on your people's success, not on having all the answers The "heart, head, hands" framework: humans are wired to feel first, then make sense of it intellectually, then act Key Takeaways: Start by defining what you believe. Most organizations focus on the "how" and "what" but skip the foundational "why." Commitment is born from conflict. People need agency, voice, and the ability to challenge ideas to truly buy in. Redefine what control means. Great leaders are conductors orchestrating the whole, not soloists playing every instrument. Lead with emotion, not intellect. "I have a dream" beats "I have a plan" every time when building commitment. Put people in choice. Be clear about your mission so people can authentically opt in—or out. Next Steps for Listeners: Ask yourself: When's the last time I thought about what my organization actually believes? Identify one person on your team and practice looking at a challenge through their eyes. Think about your last big initiative—did you lead with vision (emotion) or plan (intellect)? How did people respond? Connect with Matt on LinkedIn.

Toughness is a quality that will get you through things that you wouldn't stand a chance at getting through without it.We continue the third week of our 7-week series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with four more quotes on the theme of "Toughness."You will be faced with all kinds of challenges in your life. Some will require you to be physically tough - dealing with weather elements or getting physically hurt in some way. Others will force you to dig deep and find a toughness inside of you that tells you to keep going, don't give up, and fight to the bitter end. No matter what the situation is, the person that has the toughness and the perseverance to keep going, keep fighting, and never give up will always have the best chance at success. This week's episodes will all deal with this kind of toughness.I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate." Both are gift books for coaches or parents to give to their senior athletes. "Inspiration for the Graduate" makes for a great graduation gift, and "Senior Salute" is a great gift to give on Senior Night or at the End-of-Season Banquet. Each book is filled with quotes based on various Team Themes that, hopefully, the coaches have talked with and worked on with their teams at some point in the season.For more information to help you on your road to becoming your best, check us out at SlamDunkSuccess.com or email me at scott@slamdunksuccess.com.As always, our background music is "Dance in the Sun" by Krisztian Vass.

When a handful of friends decided to turn generosity into action, they created something extraordinary.In this episode of the Spartan Leadership Podcast, host Josh Kosnick sits down with Charlie Wills and Jason Guttenberg, two of the founding members of 100 Men of Dane County—a collective of business leaders dedicated to helping local children and families move from survival → success → significance.Together they unpack how a small idea born on a golf course became a powerhouse of community transformation, giving away more than $2.8 million to Dane County nonprofits since 2018.You'll hear: • How HackFest and a cancer diagnosis sparked the idea. • Why simple structure and shared purpose beat red tape and perfection. • The real stories behind the grants changing kids' lives. • Lessons on faith, fatherhood, and legacy from three servant-leaders. • How you can start a giving collective in your own community.

A three-year-old, a muddy car wash, and a sudden flash of Scripture—Joe's everyday moment becomes a doorway into Holy Thursday. Together, Joe and Father Boniface explore why Jesus, the Master, takes the servant's role and washes the apostles' feet—and how that single act reframes leadership, confession, and the Paschal Mystery. We look at what it means for our week: letting Christ love us first, cooperating with grace, and serving others in concrete, sometimes costly ways. Through the whole conversation we keep the three lenses clear: honesty with ourselves, charity with others, under a living relationship with God.Key IdeasFoot-washing flips power on its head: Christian leadership is service, not control—parents, bosses, and pastors alike are called to the “lowest place.”The Last Supper contains the Paschal Mystery: Jesus' total self-gift in the Eucharist points to the Cross and Resurrection and becomes the measure of love.A lived analogy for confession: baptized once, we still pick up “road dust”; regular cleansing is part of walking with Jesus.Love requires our consent: Jesus heals with our permission—faith isn't passive; it's cooperation with grace.Practical takeaway: serve someone tangibly this week (especially in a humble task) and let Jesus' loving gaze cleanse discouragement, pride, and resentment.Links & References (none explicitly cited in this episode)CTA If this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

22 years of combination experience 2nd generation Firefighter. Deputy Chief Of Operations with Clarendon Fire Rescue in South Carolina.

In this message from Everyday Mission, we look at Acts 6:1–7 and discover that the gospel doesn't just call us to extraordinary acts—it extraordinarily empowers us to live as ordinary servants. As the early church grows, a practical problem becomes an opportunity for Spirit-filled service. Through humility, wisdom, and grace, the apostles and the newly appointed servants display that God's mission advances when His people serve faithfully in everyday ways. True gospel power is not about platform or recognition—it's about Spirit-empowered service that meets real needs and points others to Jesus.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! It's Monday, October 9th, and we're journeying together through the scriptures on day 283 of our year-long adventure. I'm Hunter, your host, Bible reading coach, and fellow traveler as we open our hearts to not just read the Bible, but to encounter the God who is love. In today's episode, we'll walk through Nehemiah chapters 1 and 2, Psalm 133, and Luke 22, using the New Living Translation. You'll hear Nehemiah's passionate plea for his people, witness the disciples' Last Supper with Jesus, and reflect on what it truly means to serve in God's kingdom—even when it runs counter to how the world defines greatness. Along the way, I'll share a heartfelt prayer, some thoughts from my own life, and gratitude for listeners like you who make this daily journey possible. Settle in, take a deep breath, and let's discover God's enduring love together. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He calls us to a different kind of greatness. The gospel reading today takes us to the upper room, where Jesus shares a meal with his disciples and prepares them for the suffering to come. As he breaks the bread and pours out the wine, he tells them plainly what will happen—his body will be given, his blood poured out for them. He shares that among them sits a betrayer, and the disciples, confused and alarmed, begin to question not just who will fail, but also who among them is the greatest. Jesus responds in a way that turns the world's values upside down. He tells them that in his kingdom, greatness is not found in status, power, or position. Instead, the greatest is the one who serves. “For I am among you as one who serves,” Jesus says. The path of significance in God's kingdom is radically different from the way of the world. The world says, “Prove yourself by your accomplishments, your influence, your authority.” But Jesus says, “Lay all of that down. Become a servant. That is true greatness.” And he doesn't ask us to do anything he is not willing to do himself. Jesus is the king who serves, who gives, who lays down his life for his friends—even for those who will betray and deny him. And though we may have the best of intentions, just like Peter, we're often powerless on our own to actually live out this way of love and humility. We want to be loyal, to be faithful, to stand strong. Yet we fall, we falter, we fail. But here is the comfort: Jesus prays for us, just as he prayed for Peter. He intercedes that our faith would not fail, and that once we have turned back—once we've come to the end of ourselves—we would strengthen others, not with our own strength, but with his. It is Christ's strength, his mercy, his abiding life that equips us to be servants in his kingdom. This is the invitation of the gospel: to lay aside our striving for power, for influence, for greatness as the world defines it, and instead to find our place as servants of the King. We are called to offer the same mercy and love we have received, to embody the kingdom, to bring the message of God's reconciling love to a world in need. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. That's a prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL
