In this message from Pastor Levi Lusko, we look at gluttony as more than overeating and uncover how easily our appetites can become disordered, asking food to comfort, control, or satisfy what only God can. From Eden to the table of Jesus, Scripture reveals that eating is never just neutral. You either eat yourself to death, or you eat to the glory of God. This message will help you:Understand what gluttony really is beneath the surfaceIdentify how food may be carrying too much weight in your heart and mindSee how Jesus modeled both feasting and fastingUncover what your cravings are really trying to tell youRedirect your hunger toward the presence of GodNEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contactRegister your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-godGive a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/giveSUBSCRIBE:Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63eDon't miss a video!

A Note from James:I've been in therapy for more than three decades.Different therapists. Different kinds of therapy. Different crises.And one question has always fascinated me: What is the therapist actually thinking while I'm sitting there talking?Are they bored? Are they judging me? Are they secretly Googling me?My guest today, Lori Gottlieb, knows the answer—because she's both sides of the story.She's a psychotherapist, author of the bestselling book Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, and the writer behind the popular advice column “Ask the Therapist.”But what makes Lori unique is that she's willing to pull back the curtain on therapy itself: what therapists think, what patients hide, and why people keep repeating the same patterns in relationships and life.This episode originally aired several years ago, but the ideas still feel incredibly relevant—especially now, when conversations about mental health are everywhere.So if you've ever wondered what's really happening on the other side of the therapy couch, this conversation is for you.Episode Description:Psychotherapist and bestselling author Lori Gottlieb joins James to discuss what really happens inside therapy—and what both therapists and patients often misunderstand about the process.Drawing from her book Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, Lori explains why therapy isn't just about venting problems but about understanding the patterns that drive them.James shares his own experiences as a long-time therapy patient, raising questions many people quietly wonder: Do therapists judge their patients? Do they get bored? Do they Google the people they treat?Lori answers candidly, discussing the hidden dynamics of therapy, the emotional complexity therapists carry home with them, and why the most important conversations in therapy are often the ones people hesitate to bring up.The conversation also explores relationships, secrets, childhood experiences, and why many people keep repeating the same life patterns—even when they know better.What You'll Learn:Why therapy isn't just about discussing problems—it's about understanding patternsThe difference between content and process in relationshipsWhy therapists rarely get bored—even when problems seem trivialThe surprising ways therapists think about their patientsWhy the hardest topics in therapy often show up at the end of a sessionTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] Lori Gottlieb on Therapy as “Editing Your Life Story”[00:03:00] Introduction to Lori Gottlieb[00:04:16] Inside the Book Maybe You Should Talk to Someone[00:05:02] Why Therapists Need Therapists[00:06:17] Are Therapists Bored Listening to Problems?[00:07:00] Content vs Process: The Real Work of Therapy[00:09:00] Why Pain Has No Hierarchy[00:10:23] James's “Statistician” Theory of Therapy[00:11:00] Why Every Patient's Story Is Unique[00:12:00] Finding Something Likable in Every Patient[00:12:45] The Hollywood Producer Patient[00:15:12] The Most “Boring” Therapy Patients[00:16:03] Labeling What's Happening in a Conversation[00:18:00] Building Trust Without Oversharing[00:20:00] Judgment vs Protectiveness in Therapy[00:23:04] What Therapists Wish Patients Knew[00:24:11] Do Therapists Care What Patients Think of Them?[00:25:00] Different Styles of Therapy[00:29:00] Advice vs Understanding in Therapy[00:32:51] Do Therapists Ever Google Their Patients?[00:36:00] Why Patients Googling Therapists Can Backfire[00:38:00] The Awkward Beginning of Every Therapy Session[00:41:00] Working With a Patient Facing Terminal Cancer[00:44:00] The Emotional Impact of Therapy Work[00:46:00] Handling Suicidal Patients[00:47:30] When Therapy Ends[00:50:00] Why Saying Goodbye Matters in Therapy[00:53:00] “Doorknob Disclosures” — The Secrets Patients Reveal LastLinks and Resources:Check out Lori's website and sign up for her newsletter at Lorigottlieb.comAsk the Therapist is the column Lori writes for the New York Times.

I'm about to tell you something that might sting: Nobody cares about your body. But stick with me, because that truth is going to set you free. We spend SO much energy terrified of what people will think if we gain weight, if we eat normally, if we stop restricting. We're scared of judgment. But here's the raw truth: People are way too busy worrying about their own bodies to spend time judging yours. Today I'm sharing 9 brutal recovery truths that no one will tell you—but I absolutely will. Because I'm tired of watching women stay stuck settling for "good enough," when full freedom is absolutely possible. These aren't feel-good platitudes. These are boss-babe-energy truths that will wake you up and change everything. The 9 Raw Truths: Your health is your wealth Nobody cares about your body 2b. You will be judged no matter what—at least be judged for something meaningful Consistency matters more than perfection Recovery takes months or years—not weeks or days Your comfort zone and "settling" will destroy your dreams of freedom No one is coming to save you You can't pray yourself away from ED behaviors—you must pray AND act Time never comes back You cannot recover from an eating disorder alone. THE 9 BRUTAL TRUTHS BREAKDOWN Truth #1: Your health is your wealth. You can fake your health to the world for a while, but malnourishment catches up with you. Your bones will tell the story. Your hormones will tell the story. You can lie to everyone else, but your body keeps the receipts. When you look back in 10-30 years, your health is what will matter most—not the number on the scale. Truth #2: Nobody cares about your body. Everyone is way too worried about their own insecurities to spend time analyzing yours. The person at the grocery store? Worried about their own body. Your coworker? Stressed about their own appearance. The people who matter don't care what size you are. And the people who care what size you are don't matter. Truth #2b: You will be judged no matter what—at least be judged for something meaningful versus your pant size. Would you rather be judged for playing small, for restricting your life, for being the woman always "on a diet"? Or judged for being bold, for showing up fully, for living a life that actually matters? People will have opinions regardless. Make sure you're living a life worth having opinions about. Truth #3: Consistency matters more than perfection. Boss babes understand this in business but forget it in recovery. You can take random action, but it's what you do consistently that leads to true freedom. Recovery isn't built on perfect days—it's built on showing up day after day, even when it sucks. Truth #4: Recovery takes months or years—not weeks or days. Trying to rush recovery is like trying to rush building a business empire. You can't shortcut the process and expect lasting results. The women who understand this is an investment in their future are the ones running companies and living their dreams while others are still counting calories. Truth #5: Your comfort zone and "settling" will destroy your dreams of freedom. Quasi-recovery isn't boss babe energy—it's small energy. It's staying in the kiddie pool when you were meant to swim in the ocean. Settling for quasi-recovery is like building a business to 50K and stopping because you're "comfortable." Your eating disorder is betting on you settling. Truth #6: No one is coming to save you. Your parents can't fix this. Your partner can't love the eating disorder away. Your therapist can't want recovery more than you do. This is your life. Your recovery. Your empire to build. That's overwhelming but also the most empowering truth—you have ALL the power to change everything. Truth #7: You can't pray yourself or "try" to get yourself away from ED behaviors. Faith is powerful. Prayer is essential. But you must pray AND act like the boss babe God created you to be. God gave you a brain, body, and free will for a reason. Use them. Trying is just failing with intention. Stop trying. Start doing. Truth #8: Time never comes back. Every day you spend restricting is gone forever. Every opportunity missed because you're obsessed with food. Every relationship you half-show up to because you're mentally calculating calories. Boss babes understand time is the most valuable currency. Stop spending yours on something that will never pay dividends. THE FINAL TRUTH TO SET YOU FREE: #9: You cannot build an empire alone, and recover from an eating disorder is the exact same. Eating disorders thrive in isolation. Every successful woman has a team, support, someone who won't let them quit when things get hard. The women who recover are the ones who stop trying to figure it all out alone and invest in themselves. KEY QUOTES
Too often, we settle for “at least” in our lives—accepting less than what God intends because we feel guilty, undeserving, or afraid to hope for more. Cindi McMenamin reminds us that God’s love is not minimal; He desires to do “immeasurably more” than we can imagine. Gratitude and contentment should not become resignation. Instead, we are called to ask boldly, trust His goodness, and anticipate His blessings in every area of life, knowing that His power works within us to exceed our expectations. Highlights Settling for “at least” limits the abundant life God wants for us. Gratitude should anticipate God’s blessings, not resign us to less. God gives good gifts not because we deserve them, but because He is compassionate. Faith unlocks God’s provision; He wants to exceed what we imagine. Avoid limiting God with disbelief or self-doubt—ask boldly in prayer. God can transform situations that seem hopeless into testimonies of His glory.

By: Cindi McMenamin Bible Reading: Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us.” - Ephesians 3:20 (NIV) Do you long for something more in your life and yet constantly feel that you shouldn’t? Whether you're longing for marriage, or for more intimacy in your marriage, or for a child, or for a more fulfilling career, I'm sure you've experienced your share of these well-intentioned remarks: "At least you have a family that loves you.” "At least you have a husband." "At least you already have a child." "You may not enjoy it, but at least you have a job.” "Well, at least you're healthy." "At least you still have…” "At least you don't suffer with…” Oh, the sting of well-intentioned remarks. And, oh, the sting of those two guilt-ridden words: "At least..." So many of us settle for “at least” in our lives. And yet, since God went to such great extremes to show His love for you and me by having His only Son die on the cross for our sins, then certainly He did not intend for us to be content with the bare minimum. Yes, God's Word says we are to be thankful "in all circumstances" (1 Thessalonians 5:18). We are also told from Scripture that "godliness with contentment is great gain" (1 Timothy 6:6). But God doesn't want our gratitude and contentment to be a form of resignation (like when we say, "I guess I should be happy with this, since it's all I will ever get anyway"). Rather, God wants His children to be full of anticipation for the "more" that He is so capable of giving—to the point that we thank Him ahead of time for all that He is about to do. This God who tells us to be thankful in all things actually raises the bar when we decide to settle for less, or at least what life brings us. In the New King James Version, Ephesians 3:20 says God is able to do “exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.” You and I often hear, think, or say the word "at least" in our lives. And yet God's Word says: "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer" (Matthew 21:22). "Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full" (John 16:24). "Without faith it is impossible to please Him" (Hebrews 11:6). Those words, my friend, come from a God who is not stingy, and who doesn't bow out after He's done the bare minimum in your life. He is, instead, the God who says, "If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!" (Matthew 7:11). Intersecting Faith & Life: You and I have our reasons for not coming to God and pouring out our hearts. Sometimes it's because we feel guilty about asking God for something. Other times it's because we don't really believe that He would want to bless us, or we feel we don't deserve anything more from Him. When you and I say, "I don't really deserve any more than I have right now," we are actually correct in our assumption, because God doesn't give us good gifts because we deserve them. He gives us good gifts because He is good and compassionate, wanting to bless His children. Especially when we seek to be obedient and please His heart. So, what are you settling for? A dating relationship with someone you know is not right for you? A job you tolerate because you don't believe God has something better for you? A diagnosis that appears untreatable? A marriage that is just okay, but not truly glorifying God? Don't fall into the mindset of saying, "I don't believe God can or will give me anything better," or "I don't deserve more than what I already have." Instead, remember that God can do anything, and He loves to bless His children. He excels in situations that you and I think are hopeless. Don't be reluctant to pour out your heart to Him. Rather than settle for the least in your life, surrender to His best and allow for the possibility that God may want to do "immeasurably more” than all you can ask or imagine—many times with what you already have.

Jesse hosts the Learnings and Missteps podcast and interviews Scott Evans, founder of Scott Evans Speaks, about mental health in the construction field as “operational integrity” and “invisible PPE,” emphasizing a 360-degree safety culture that extends beyond the jobsite gate. They discuss the disconnect between corporate, compliance-focused tools like apps and HR videos versus the field reality that trust and real conversations—often one-on-one on site—drive help-seeking, while stigma and policing language can shut people down. Scott shares lived experience with family suicide, trauma, and his own suicide attempt, reframing it as wanting a “way up,” and argues that prevention has ROI through reduced shutdowns, turnover, and insurance impacts. Jesse highlights Scott's free bilingual “five lifesaving tools” field guide (notice, ask, share, connect, act) and the need for jobsite champions.

In this message from Genesis 11–15, we follow Abraham's journey from settlement to promise and uncover powerful truths about our own walk with God.Abraham's father began the journey toward Canaan but settled short of the promise. How often do we start strong in faith, only to grow comfortable and stop short of where God is leading? This teaching challenges us to examine whether we're truly walking with God or simply maintaining a “good enough” spiritual life.Through Abraham's worship, failure, and restoration, we see our own story. When he compromised in Egypt, he eventually returned to the altar — reminding us that no matter where we drift, coming home to God is always possible. When we fail, the key is returning quickly to intimacy with Him.Finally, we're reminded that the promises given to Abraham belong to us as his spiritual children. We are called to live with integrity, to be a blessing, and to trust God to fulfill His purposes in and through our lives.

Send a textAt what point does “loving your spouse for who they are” turn into “settling for who they refuse to become”? Marriage isn't just about love — it's about growth, responsibility, and evolution. And this episode asks a question most married couples avoid because it hits too close to home. We've all heard it: “You knew who I was when you married me.” But what happens when: • effort stops • ambition fades • emotional growth stalls • accountability disappears • and “this is just how I am” becomes a shield against change? On this episode of Marriage Material, we challenge the tension between acceptance and expectation: • Are vows about unconditional acceptance… or mutual growth? • When does patience become enabling? • How long do you wait on “in progress” before admitting nothing is changing? • Is staying loyal to the marriage costing you loyalty to yourself? This isn't about quitting on your spouse. It's about confronting the difference between supporting growth and surviving stagnation. Because real marriage isn't loving someone despite who they are — it's walking with someone who's willing to become better with you. ⚠️ If this topic makes you uncomfortable, it may be exposing a conversation you've been avoiding.Support the show

Through powerful moments in Mark 14 and John 21, they unpack how fear can shrink our faith, how grace restores what shame tries to bury, and how surrender turns broken moments into burning conviction. This episode challenges listeners to step out of comfort, embrace restoration, and allow God to transform failure into fruitful, multiplying faith.

This week at Church at Viera, we continue our two-year Multiply journey with a powerful message on transformation.Looking at the life of the apostle Peter, we see three defining moments marked by fire: failure, forgiveness, and Spirit-filled boldness. From denying Jesus around a charcoal fire, to being restored by grace on the shoreline, to preaching with courage at Pentecost, Peter's story reminds us that the Christian life is not about arriving at a destination but about continually becoming more like Christ.God desires to deepen our character, expand our influence, and grow our generosity. Real transformation begins when we surrender comfort, release guilt, and allow the Holy Spirit to reshape our lives for His purposes.What could God do through a church fully engaged in trusting Him and taking bold next steps of faith?Join us as we pursue 100% engagement and believe God to multiply a harvest of righteousness in Brevard County and beyond.

Settling in relationships isn't a flaw in your personality — it's a mental pattern shaped by years of reinforced experiences, internal narratives, and emotional habits. In this episode, I break down the science behind why we settle and walk you through five practical, brain-based stepsto help you make relational decisions from a place of clarity, stability, and self-respect — rather than familiarity or pressure. We explore how the mind forms relational templates, how to accurately read your internal warning signals, and how to strengthen your standards using simple, repeatable practices that create lasting change. These steps are designed to help you build relationships that support your emotional well-being and align with the season of life you're in now — not the patterns you've outgrown. Why the mind gravitates toward familiar (even unhealthy) relationship patterns How internal narratives influence the partners and friendships you choose How to interpret warning signals without fear or overthinking How to define non-negotiables that support emotional steadiness How to use micro-alignment to shift long-standing habits How to make relationship decisions based on consistent evidence, not pressure

I spent most of my life settling in relationships. And at 49, I finally got it right.In this episode, I sit down with Case Kenny, author of The Opposite of Settling and the voice behind millions of those red pen posts you've probably seen on Instagram, to talk about the question that haunts so many of us: Am I settling or just being realistic?Case isn't your typical self-help guru. He has a background in languages and studied how words literally rewire our brains. He even measured his own brainwave activity while using different sentence structures to prove that the language we use physically changes our neural patterns. It's not woo-woo. It's neuroscience.We dive into why chemistry is overrated (yes, really), what "I need more time" actually means (spoiler: they're not worth your time), and the concept of "out of town confidence" that you should be bringing to your everyday life. We also get into competing beliefs, like those hidden contradictions like wanting success but believing power corrupts, or wanting love but thinking relationships threaten independence. Whether you're single and tired of dating, in a relationship and wondering if it's enough, or just trying to figure out your worth, this episode will help you stop second-guessing yourself.Connect with Case Kenny:Website: https://www.casekenny.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/case.kenny/Book: The Opposite of Settling (available everywhere)Podcast: New Mindset, Who Dis?

In this solo episode, Travis shares hard-won lessons from Paulo Coelho's classic book The Alchemist and connects them to entrepreneurship, parenting, and the journey of building a meaningful life and business. He distills years of publishing over 1,500 podcast episodes, reading 200+ books, and countless hours of listening into a focused breakdown of why the adventure—not the outcome—is what truly matters. On this episode we talk about: What The Alchemist is really about and why it resonates with entrepreneurs The concept of a “personal legend” and how it applies to your goals and dreams Why settling for a “good enough” life keeps you stuck and resentful How to think about risk, comfort, and the closed fist vs. open hand mindset Parenting as preparation: helping your kids face struggle, fear, and their own adventure Top 3 Takeaways If you are not willing to risk what you have for what you want, you will probably never get it. Settling for a “good enough,” dream-adjacent life slowly turns into resentment toward people, opportunities, and the belief that there's not enough out there. The real treasure is who you become on the journey—whether in business or parenting—and your job is to engineer struggle, growth, and adventure, not just comfort. Notable Quotes "If you're not willing to risk what you have to get what you want, then you probably won't get it." "It's not about having the thing. It's about who you become along the way of pursuing the thing." "The adventure is what makes life worth living."

Would you ever let a stranger stay in your house like Jess? Did Charlotte cut her needy friend off? Does Kramer finally need to settle?
Prescott, Arizona TerritoryFebruary 10, 1886In 1881, the Arizona Territory was rocked by the chilling crimes of Dennis Dilda, a man whose outward appearance as a hardworking settler masked a predatory nature. Settling near Prescott with his wife and children, Dilda's descent into infamy began with the disappearance of several travelers. Suspicion peaked when Deputy Sheriff James Bozarth went missing after visiting Dilda's ranch to investigate a theft.A subsequent search of the property revealed a gruesome scene: Bozarth's body was discovered buried beneath the floor of Dilda's cabin. Further investigation unearthed more victims on the grounds, cementing Dilda's reputation as one of the frontier's most cold-blooded killers. His capture led to a swift trial and a public execution in 1886. Dilda's story remains a haunting chapter of Wild West history, serving as a grim reminder that the most dangerous outlaws weren't always found on the open trail—sometimes, they were your neighbors.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-historian--2909311/support.You can pay more if you want to, but rent at the Safe House is still just a buck a week, and you can get access to over 400 ad-free episodes from the dusty vault, Safe House Exclusives, direct access to the Boss, and whatever personal services you require.We invite you to our other PULPULAR MEDIA podcasts:If disaster is more your jam, check out CATASTROPHIC CALAMITIES, telling the stories of famous and forgotten tragedies of the 19th and 20th centuries.
