Thanks to Ryan with Dad Travel Blog DadTravelBlog.com Visit him on Socials @DadTravelBlogAnd this episode is brought to you with love from QGolf.ComParenting doesn't mean the end of adventure - it's just the beginning of a different kind of journey. In this heartwarming Father's Day episode, Ryan from Dad Travel Blog joins The Romies to share his wisdom on creating unforgettable family travel experiences that strengthen bonds and shape young worldviews.When Ryan's family discovered the magical Swiss town of Lauterbrunnen, with its spectacular waterfalls and mountain trails, it made such an impression they returned the following summer. But the true magic happened after coming home - his children spontaneously began learning French and German, demonstrating how travel plants seeds of curiosity that continue growing long after the suitcases are unpacked."Working full-time, you lose that connection. They're in school, I'm at work, we're doing activities at night... You don't always get to know your kid fully," Ryan explains, highlighting perhaps travel's greatest gift: uninterrupted time together. Those shared adventures - whether navigating foreign transit systems or simply watching a sunset in a new place - create a special kind of family glue that withstands the test of time.For parents hesitant about the logistics of traveling with young ones, Ryan offers practical wisdom: start small with local adventures, build in downtime between activities, always pack extra snacks, and embrace the unexpected moments (like when his toddler began distributing their snacks to fellow airline passengers!). The goal isn't Instagram-perfect memories but authentic experiences that help children develop adaptability, curiosity, and openness.This episode also features Scott from Q Golf, showcasing their innovative all-in-one adjustable golf club that breaks down to fit in a suitcase - perfect for the traveling dad who wants to squeeze in a round without lugging a full set of clubs- Perfect for Father's Day!Whether you're planning your first family trip or your fiftieth, this conversation will inspire you to create adventures that strengthen your family's bonds while nurturing the next generation of curious, open-hearted travelers.

Guest: Ruschelle Khanna - Family business consultant, psychotherapist, and author of "Inherited Trauma and Family Wealth"Key Timestamps & Ideas3:00-5:30 - Growing Up in Coal Country Despite feeling abundant as a child, underlying financial anxiety from this environment shaped her early money scripts and relationship with wealth.5:30-8:00 - The Origins of Inherited Trauma WorkThree catalysts led to her book: inheriting a traumatic memory from her mother, experiencing Lyme disease, and 20 years of NYC client work. 8:00-12:00 - The Prison MetaphorBoth poverty and wealth can create psychological prisons. 12:00-15:30 - Practical Healing StrategiesFamily governance serves as therapeutic tool, along with genealogy research and getting families talking. 15:30-20:00 - Transparency vs. SecrecyShe advocates transparency about family wealth with next generation, explaining how secrecy robs children of pride in family legacy. 20:00-25:00 - Multi-Generational DynamicsLonger lifespans create more generations alive simultaneously. Value differences between generations are natural. Documenting family legacy helps members understand the "unique collection of coincidences" that created family wealth.25:00-30:00 - The Five Liabilities of Family TeamsFamilies fall into cycles of chaos, conflict avoidance, people pleasing, procrastination, and abandonment. Conflict in wealthy families isn't "about the money" but about belonging and unspoken pain, with underlying trauma as the root cause.30:00-35:00 - Money as Intimate EnergyMoney sits at our "root chakra" with sexuality and intimacy. The pudendal nerve means "the place to be ashamed of" in Latin, explaining why people discuss trauma but avoid talking about money in therapy.35:00-40:00 - Success vs. Failure in Wealth TransitionSuccess requires strong relational, financial, and operational systems. Even "abandonment" can resolve energetically over generations, though blended families face increased emotional complexity and trust issues.40:00-45:00 - Self-Worth and Sibling DisparitiesThe pillar metaphor describes never feeling "less than" by cultivating both inherent worth ("you're lovable because you exist") and earned worth. Wealth disparities between siblings can destroy family relationships.45:00-50:00 - Addressing Compulsive BehaviorsCompulsive spending functions as addiction: "what is the pain you're running from?" Imposter syndrome and Dunning-Kruger effect represent two sides of worth issues, while "inversion of trust" means feeling safer with strangers than family.50:00-55:00 - Individual Change Creates Systemic HealingWorking on inherited trauma individually heals entire family systems. Using the "fascia" metaphor, removing one knot improves the whole system. Success means creating lasting change while learning personally.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC. All statements and opinions expressed are based upon information considered reliable although it should not be relied upon as such.

Drawing from James 1:2–3, Mike unpacks how adversity, trials, and even self-inflicted mistakes serve as reps—the real-world training that forges character, deepens wisdom, and builds the kind of leadership that others are drawn to.You don't get stronger without struggle.You don't build resilience without resistance.And you don't become the leader others need without facing things you never asked for.The question isn't “Why is this happening to me?”It's “What is this building in me?”If you've faced tough seasons in leadership, this is your reminder that pain has purpose—and you're being shaped for something greater.Like, Subscribe, and share this with a leader who's in the fire right now and needs to hear this.

They explore groundbreaking studies from McGill University and the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology showing how music can literally alter brain chemistry—releasing dopamine or cortisol depending on what you're listening to. From rap to classical, worship to feel-good pop, Kirk and James reflect on how their own music choices have impacted their mindset, relationships, and faith over time. Plus, they share amazing insights about the spiritual origin of music, its role in Scripture, and how melodies—even from childhood—stick with us for life.

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Pastor Nate Wright sits down with Chilean documentary filmmaker Nathan Anderson to discuss how the postmillennial hope influences one's worldview and life perspective. 

“The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of fools is deception.” - Proverbs 14:8When it comes to saving, spending, and talking about money, our God-given temperament plays a bigger role than we think. Today, Kathleen Edelman shares how understanding your wiring can lead to better financial decisions and healthier money conversations.Kathleen Edelman is the author of “I Said This, You Heard That: How Your Wiring Colors Your Communication.” She is certified in Biblical Studies and Christian Counseling Psychology and has spent over 30 years coaching clients in the art of effective communication.What Is Temperament—And Why Does It Matter?Temperament was studied by Hippocrates 2,000 years ago. It's innate, unchangeable, and part of your design by God, like your eye color or fingerprint. In contrast, “personality” evolves based on culture, upbringing, education, and environment.This foundational understanding is essential not just in relationships but also in how we approach money.Temperament influences how we budget, spend, save, and even how we talk about money. Here's how each temperament—Yellow, Red, Blue, and Green—sees financial decisions through a unique lens:YELLOW (Sanguine): The Fun-Loving GiverWiring: Optimistic, relational, in-the-moment.Financial Outlook: Sees money as a way to connect and create experiences. Often spontaneous and generous, but may avoid serious conversations about finances out of fear of conflict or damaging relationships.Growth Tip: Build guardrails around spending while leaving room for joy. Schedule regular money conversations to reduce anxiety.RED (Choleric): The Visionary LeaderWiring: Goal-driven, results-oriented, confident.Financial Outlook: Excels at goal setting, budgeting for success, and achieving results. May be impulsive or steamroll others in decision-making.Growth Tip: Invite feedback and take the time to consider other perspectives. Collaboration builds trust.BLUE (Melancholic): The Cautious PlannerWiring: Detail-oriented, safety-driven, analytical.Financial Outlook: Needs detailed plans, emergency savings, and financial security. Prefers structure and predictability.Growth Tip: Communicate your need for time to process financial decisions. Allow room for flexibility while maintaining your desire for order.GREEN (Phlegmatic): The Peaceful StabilizerWiring: Calm, steady, conflict-avoidant.Financial Outlook: Values simplicity, consistency, and low-stress systems. May avoid decisions that involve conflict or complexity.Growth Tip: Don't be afraid to speak up about your financial opinions. Take the time you need, but be intentional about engaging.Why Temperament Matters in Money ConversationsMost miscommunication is not intentional. For instance, it could be that you're speaking ‘blue,' and they're hearing ‘yellow.'” That misalignment can be costly, both relationally and financially.To bridge the gap, learn to recognize both your own temperament and the temperament of the person you're speaking with. Then, speak their language.Example: A Yellow Talking to a BlueA Yellow might say: “Hey _______, I know details matter to you. Can we sit down together and make a plan that gives us both a vision with a little room for fun?” This honors the Blue's need for order and gives space for the Yellow's desire for connection.Example: A Red Talking to a GreenRather than saying, “We need to figure this out now,” a Red could say: “I'd love us to make a simple plan together so that we both feel secure. We can talk it through at your pace.” This respects the Greens' need for harmony and time.Next Steps for Growth and StewardshipKathleen's workbook, I Said This, You Heard That, is designed to help you better understand your wiring—and live it out in strength, not weakness. It's not about changing your temperament but becoming fluent in the languages of others.Inside the 2025 edition, you'll find tools to help you:Name your tendencies and choose healthier responsesDiscover your “innate needs” (which she calls a game-changer)Revisit conversations with grace and self-awarenessBecome fluent in your own and others' communication stylesWhen we understand our design, we communicate better. When we communicate better, we make wiser financial decisions. And when our finances reflect intentional, Christ-centered communication, our relationships and witness grow stronger.Learning to speak the language of others says: I care about you. That changes everything.I Said This, You Heard That: How Your Wiring Colors Your Communication (2025 Edition) is available now wherever books are sold.

As beloved children of God, formed by prayer and shaped by love, we are offered a destiny greater than our darkest prisons—a destiny not defined by our chains, but by ourchoices.  We need only trust that the prayers we offer—day after day, week after week—shape our lives and the lives of those around us.

In this powerful conclusion to the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus invites us to a moment of decision. In Matthew 7:13–27, He lays out a series of striking contrasts: • Two gates • Two trees • Two builders Each choice leads to a drastically different outcome—life or destruction, truth or deception, stability or collapse. In this episode, we explore what it means to walk the narrow path, bear true spiritual fruit, and build a life on the unshakable rock of obedience to Jesus. If your faith has ever been more talk than transformation, this message is your wake-up call—and your invitation to deeper surrender. Key Takeaways: • Why the easy road is often the most dangerous • How to recognize true spiritual fruit in your life • What it means to truly “know” Jesus—not just say His name • How to build a life that stands when storms come

Historian and journalist Molly Worthen joins Faithful Politics to explore the deep history of charisma—from the revivals of Anne Hutchinson and Joseph Smith to the populism of Donald Trump. Worthen, author of Spellbound: How Charisma Shaped American History from the Puritans to Donald Trump, unpacks how this powerful force straddles the sacred and secular.She also shares her own remarkable journey from secularism to Christianity, explains why younger generations may be rethinking faith, and reflects on the prophetic burden Christians carry in a polarized democracy. From MAGA rallies to megachurches to TikTok gurus, we explore how belief, authority, and identity are being redefined in the 21st century.

Why does the Roman Empire still hold such power over our imagination — and our institutions? In this episode, Steve is joined by journalist and bestselling author Aldo Cazzullo, whose new book The Never-Ending Empire explores the enduring legacy of Rome in everything from politics to language to architecture — and now, the papacy itself. We discuss the Roman Republic, the Gracchi brothers, Julius Caesar, the transformation into the Christian empire, and the echoes of it all in today’s world — especially with the historic election of the first American pope, Leo XIV. What connects Augustus and Zuckerberg? Caesar and Washington? The Roman Senate and Capitol Hill? Tune in to find out.

While inspirational to many, the terms diversity, equity, and inclusion also terrify some. This reality underscores why there is still so much to be learned about what diversity, equity, and inclusion mean as values that guide ethical decision-making, as strategies to upend structural inequities, and as a field of study which helps transform the way we organize and work together.   As imperative as it is to fortify this body of work, we have to keep thinking about what we mean by these terms, and what others mean when they find themselves up in arms about them. When we are in the grip of fear, it's hard to think. It's hard to imagine new possibilities. And yet, thinking and imagining have never been more important.    We begin this imagination journey by considering the role journalism plays in informing, influencing, and ultimately shaping our understanding about diversity, equity, and inclusion. We also must consider what form of journalism would be powerful enough to oppose the unfounded attacks and fear-mongering targeting this work?    Our guide for this journey is none other than Sam Ragland. Sam is the Vice President of Journalism Programs for the American Press Institute. She is a connector and a collaborator, leading a talented department of local journalists. She believes her team can impact the longevity of local news, in whatever form that news takes. On a micro level, this work looks like leading API's efforts to promote cultural transformation and business sustainability in media, helping news organizations serve diverse readers and communities more effectively.    During this episode, you'll learn about:   The crucial shift within journalism towards prioritizing diversity, equity, and inclusion in both newsroom culture and reporting practices. The power of journalism has to influence public opinion, and its promise in debunking pervasive misinformation, disinformation, and lies about this work. The ways journalism can build trust by reporting on a broader range of stories that more accurately reflect the complexities of our society. First amendment free press attacks and the need for additional resources to secure support for independent journalism.   Ultimately, this episode underscores how a genuine commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in journalism is not just about fairness; it's intrinsically linked to fostering a more informed society, strengthening democratic ideals, and contributing to a healthier, more inclusive business landscape centering our humanity. By accurately reflecting the diverse fabric of society, journalism can build greater trust and contribute to a stronger sense of belonging for all.   Want to gain the skills necessary to apply this learning into your work?

The Five Verbs of Faith: How Christ Shapes the Christian Life The Gospel message today centers on Jesus' powerful promise: “If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you.” But this promise comes with a condition . . . that we remain in Him and allow His words to dwell in us. To remain in Jesus is not a momentary feeling or a Sunday obligation; it means to make a home in Him, to live in constant communion with Him. Jesus uses the image of the vine and the branches to describe our relationship with Him. This image outlines the Christian journey using five key actions: Remain, Bear, Prune, Wither, and Burn. 1. Remain: This means to dwell, to abide, to be rooted in Christ daily. 2. Bear fruit: The visible fruits are not achievements, but spiritual qualities — love, peace, patience, kindness, and self-control — that flow from remaining in Christ. 3. Prune: Even fruitful branches are pruned — trials and challenges refine us, making us more fruitful. It is a necessary and loving part of spiritual growth. 4. Wither: When we disconnect from Christ, our spiritual life slowly fades. We lose joy, peace, and the desire for prayer. 5. Burn: A branch that continues apart from the vine is eventually lost — this represents the spiritual death that comes from separation from God. The message reminds us that unanswered prayers may not mean God has failed us. Instead, they call us to examine whether we are truly abiding in Christ. When we remain in Him, our desires align with His . . . and what we ask is shaped by His will. This is not a blank check, but a divine alignment. True discipleship means letting Christ live in us so deeply that what we seek is what He already wills to give. Listen to this Meditation Media. Listen to … The Five Verbs of Faith: How Christ Shapes the Christian Life ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jesus Teaches the People by the Sea: French Artist and Painter: James Tissot: 1886 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Gospel Reading: John 15: 1-8 First Reading: Acts 15: 1-6 ---------------------------------------------------------------- A Quote from the Homily The moment we abide in Christ our will, our desires also bend towards his desires. So we desire what the vine desires, we ask what the vine is going to give us more, especially those that we need. Not those that we want. And if we abide in him and his words abide in us, our desires are his desires, and it is from this that we receive because they are his desires
