Welcome back to By Their Side, everyone! Joining me today is someone with a raw, real, and inspiring story to share. Neil Underwood is the General Manager of Autonation Toyota Tempe, and he comes onto the show for this episode to share his past as a child living through what so many kids in the foster care system are living through today. Before he was leading teams and earning industry-wide awards in the automotive industry, Neil was a teenager sleeping in his car between foster placements, struggling to finish high school after losing his mom and brother at a young age. Listen in as Neil shares what it was really like to grow up in the system in the '70s and '80s, bouncing between homes, (some of which were not even licensed) and how the absence of support systems like CASA shaped his path. We discuss the turning points that helped him keep going, even when it felt like no one else was in his corner, and while Neil's story is raw and real, what really struck me most was his refusal to quit on himself, and how that mindset now drives the way that he leads others and gives back to his community. Neil and I also get into the practical ways that people can show up for youth in foster care, and we don't just just mean professionals but also neighbors, mentors, employers, anyone. Neil offers thoughtful advice to those trying to make a difference: be consistent, be real, and never underestimate the power of simply caring. This conversation got me thinking about the ripple effect of even one adult showing up, and I am sure that will inspire some deep thought within you, too! Neil is proof that resilience is real but also that no kid should have to do it alone. I am so grateful that he shared his story with me and with you! Highlights: [1:54] - Hear how Neil rose from poverty and foster care to become a longtime car industry leader. [3:51] - A lack of support systems left Neil drifting through unstable homes and sleeping in his car. [6:33] - Shelters were overcrowded and bleak, but Neil pushed forward, determined not to give up. [9:38] - Facing sudden independence when he aged out, Neil learned that trust builds via consistent care and presence in kids' lives. [12:51] - Neil believes that strong leadership means understanding and supporting employees at every level, face-to-face. [14:52] - Winning AutoNation's CEO Award helped affirm Neil's commitment to community. [16:34] - Neil is a champion for youth programs, ensuring measurable impact and long-term support even after aging out. [18:58] - Hear how having no safety net taught Neil to rely on himself and keep moving forward. [21:37] - Surrounding yourself with the right people is important for staying focused and avoiding setbacks. [24:58] - Neil found strength and purpose via sports and community support despite early failures and temptations. [27:38] - Supporting kids' dreams via volunteering can impact their future and leave a lasting impression. [30:14] - Neil believes that kids in foster care can thrive when shown care, consistency, and positive attention early on. [33:45] - Many kids in group homes flourish academically when given support, even when they are initially written off. Links & Resources: Neil's LinkedIn Page

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, where every day is a fresh journey through the pages of Scripture. It's August 5th and we're on Day 218 of our adventure together. I'm your host, Hunter—your brother, Bible reading coach, and fellow traveler as we gather from places near and far to warm our hearts by the fires of God's love. In today's episode, we dive into 2 Kings 23, 2 Chronicles 35, and John 7. We'll witness King Josiah's groundbreaking reforms to restore true worship in Israel, the powerful celebration of Passover that hadn't been seen since the time of the judges, and the challenges Josiah faced against powerful nations. Then, we'll turn to the gospel of John and find Jesus at the Festival of Shelters, teaching boldly about living water—the Spirit that he promises to pour out on all who believe. Along the way, Hunter draws out the deeper meaning behind the festival's water-pouring ceremony, connecting it to Jesus' declaration that he is the true source of life and hope. We'll wrap up with heartfelt prayers for God's guidance, mercy, and joy as we step into a new day. So grab your Bible, settle in, and join us as we encounter God's living Word together—and remember, you are loved. No doubt about it. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He is the Source of Living Water. Picture the scene at the festival of shelters—each day, the priest carries water from the pool of Siloam, pours it out upon the altar, and it runs down the temple steps. For seven days, this ritual is repeated, and on the final day, the expectation and hope of the people reach their pinnacle. This act was more than tradition; it was a symbol, a living picture of the Messiah pouring out the Spirit upon God's people, a promise rooted in the Scriptures—“I will pour out water to quench your thirst and irrigate your parched fields… I will pour out my Spirit on your descendants and my blessing on your children” (Isaiah 44:3). And in this very moment, Jesus stands and shouts to the crowds: “Anyone who is thirsty may come to me. Anyone who believes in me may come and drink.” It's as if Jesus steps into the very heart of the ceremony and says, All of this points to me. I am the One you've been waiting for. I am the Source of the Living Water the world so desperately needs. The promise, the hope, and the life the ritual anticipated is found in Him—and received by coming to Him, trusting Him, believing. That's the invitation Christ makes to you and to me: to come to the Source, to drink freely, to allow His Spirit—like streams of living water—to flow within us and out of us into a thirsty, longing world. No longer do we look for life in ceremonies or traditions—good as they may be—because the true fulfillment is Christ Himself, the One in whom all God's promises find their “yes.” We don't come to Jesus for fame, for recognition, or for any fleeting thing. His brothers sought notoriety, but Jesus came, not to be applauded, but to do what the Father asked—to seek, to save, and to invite us into the overflowing life He shares with the Father and the Spirit. His heart is to give, to pour out, so that we too would be channels of living water, blessing, hope, and renewal to the world. So, today, let's come to Him who is the Source. Let's drink deeply of the life He freely gives. Let's allow the living water to flow through us—transforming us, refreshing us, and reaching out to others. That's the prayer I have for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Almighty and ever loving God, you have brought us to the light of a new morning. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit that we may walk this day in peace. Guard our steps from temptation. Shield us from the weight of fear and shame, and lead us deeper into the joy of your presence through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. O Christ, light of the nations, shine in every place where shadows dwell. Call the scattered home, heal the wounds of division and gather all people into the communion of your grace. May the knowledge of the Lord cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Amen. And now, Lord, make my hands ready for mercy. Make my eyes quick to see the hurting, my ears open to the cry of the lonely, and my feet swift to bring good news. Let me seek to bless, not to be noticed, to serve, not to be praised, to forgive, not to hold back. For in your way is life, in your mercy is healing, and in your love is the peace this world cannot give. 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 trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.

Cattitude - Cat podcast about cats as pets on Pet Life Radio (PetLifeRadio.com)
This week on Cattitude, host Michelle Fern welcomes Tori Fugate, Director of Communications for Shelter Animals Count, to talk about the peak of kitten season and what new national data is revealing about the influx of feline intakes across shelters. Tori shares critical insights from 2024's shelter data showing how kitten intakes (0–8 weeks old) surge in May, followed by a boom of juvenile cats in June and July. This seasonal trend puts enormous pressure on animal shelters, making it vital for rescues to proactively plan for fosters, staffing, medical care, and community support. Learn how this data helps shelters better prepare, save lives, and support these most vulnerable feline arrivals—and what you can do to help!EPISODE NOTES: Kitten Tsunami: Why Kitten Season Floods Shelters with FelinesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

On a long family road trip, I spent hours driving through the sparsely populated states of Montana and South Dakota. As I drove, I began to notice a pattern: vast stretches of farmland were dotted with groves of trees surrounding a house. As I worked hard to keep our van in our lane due to strong winds, it dawned on me that the trees were there for more than beauty. They were also intentionally cultivated windbreakers designed to protect the home and its occupants from the powerful gusts of wind buffeting the landscape. The prophet Isaiah once described a future in God’s care as a shelter from wind and storm. Having called God’s people to repentance (Isaiah 31:6–7), Isaiah also wrote of a future time when “a king will reign in righteousness” (32:1) and all who rule with Him will be “a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm” (v. 2). The resulting blessing is people who are able to see, hear, understand, and speak truth (vv. 3–4) in peace and safety. While we still await the full benefits of this promise, we already see God at work through those who actively look out for the interests of others (Philippians 2:3–4). Christ’s Spirit helps us cultivate a safe space where people can flourish even in difficult times. This is a tangible way we can exemplify God’s loving care.

Teaching Text - Deuteronomy 16:1-17Observe the month Abib and keep the Passover to the Lord your God, for in that month he brought you out of Egypt by night. 2 You must sacrifice the Passover animal (from the flock or the herd) to the Lord your God in the place where he chooses to locate his name. 3 You must not eat any yeast with it; for seven days you must eat bread made without yeast, as symbolic of affliction, for you came out of Egypt hurriedly. You must do this so you will remember for the rest of your lives the day you came out of the land of Egypt. 4 There must not be a scrap of yeast within your land for seven days, nor can any of the meat you sacrifice on the evening of the first day remain until the next morning. 5 You may not sacrifice the Passover in just any of your villages that the Lord your God is giving you, 6 but you must sacrifice it in the evening in the place where he chooses to locate his name, at sunset, the time of day you came out of Egypt. 7 You must cook and eat it in the place the Lord your God chooses; you may return the next morning to your tents. 8 You must eat bread made without yeast for six days. The seventh day you are to hold an assembly for the Lord your God; you must not do any work on that day.9 You must count seven weeks; you must begin to count them from the time you begin to harvest the standing grain. 10 Then you are to celebrate the Feast of Weeks before the Lord your God with the voluntary offering that you will bring, in proportion to how he has blessed you. 11 You shall rejoice before him—you, your son, your daughter, your male and female slaves, the Levites in your villages, the resident foreigners, the orphans, and the widows among you—in the place where the Lord chooses to locate his name. 12 Furthermore, remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and so be careful to observe these statutes.13 You must celebrate the Feast of Shelters for seven days, at the time of the grain and grape harvest. 14 You are to rejoice in your festival, you, your son, your daughter, your male and female slaves, the Levites, the resident foreigners, the orphans, and the widows who are in your villages. 15 You are to celebrate the festival seven days before the Lord your God in the place he chooses, for he will bless you in all your productivity and in whatever you do; so you will indeed rejoice! 16 Three times a year all your males must appear before the Lord your God in the place he chooses for the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Shelters; and they must not appear before him empty-handed. 17 Every one of you must give as you are able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you.

His brothers mock his messianic claims, and the religious leaders plot his death. Jesus slips into the festival quietly, then teaches boldly in the temple, challenging both popular misconceptions and legalistic hypocrisy. He warns against superficial judgment and calls for a discerning look “beneath the surface.”Sermon Notes • Recap of John series: six months in Galilee (feeding 5,000, walking on water, “I am the bread of life”). • Many disciples fell away (John 6:60–71); Peter's confession (“To whom would we go?”) set the tone for wholehearted follow-through. • Today: chapter 7, “Trouble – Part 1,” focusing on mounting opposition from family, the crowd, and religious authorities. • Scripture Passage • John 7:1–10: Family skepticism—brothers urge Jesus to seek fame in Jerusalem; Jesus refuses, pointing out that the world hates him because he exposes its sin. • John 7:14–24: Mid-festival, Jesus teaches in the temple; crowd astonished at his authority; he contrasts truth-seeking and self-seeking motives, rebukes their Sabbath-law hypocrisy, and urges “stop judging by mere appearances, but judge correctly.”Main Points 1. Opposition from Family & World • Jesus' own brothers don't believe (v 5–7); the “world” (festival crowd) hates the truth about sin (v 7–10). 2. Discern True Authority • A God-sent teacher speaks truth to convicts the heart, not just pleases the crowd (v 16–18). • Authentic ministry seeks God's glory, not self-glory. 3. Judge Beneath the Surface • Legalistic enforcement (e.g., Sabbath laws) can hide self-righteous pride (v 19–24). • Jesus calls us to discern heart-motives, not merely outward compliance. • Illustrations & Stories • Festival Tension: Imagine navigating Jerusalem crowds amid threats on your life—Jesus' courage in teaching under pressure. • Youth Leader Story: A new believer, Troy, faced condemnation for imperfect attendance and dress, while his inner transformation went largely unseen—highlighting the danger of focusing on appearances over heart change.Application • When Truth Offends: Notice where you resist honest conviction; embracing Jesus on his terms may conflict with family, culture, or personal comfort. • Discern Teachers & Messages: Does this teaching seek God's glory by calling you to heart-change, or does it pander to what feels good? • Cultivate “Beneath the Surface” Vision: In your relationships and church life, look for genuine fruit of the Spirit rather than mere outward conformity.ClosingPastor Nathan led a prayer inviting the Holy Spirit to transform our hearts, strengthen authentic unity, and empower us to live out justice, mercy, and love—“more of You and less of us.” • Resources & Links • Bible Passage: John 7:1–24 (NLT) • John Journals: Available in the foyer for note-taking#hillschurch #beencouraged #nathanbell #evertonhills #brisbanechurch #brisbane #wesleyanmethodistchurch #hillschurchsermon
Understanding the traditional festivals that God required Israel to celebrate, help us to better understand the world into which Jesus came and taught. In today's sermon Russ teaches us about Sukkot - The Feast of the Tabernacles (aka The Festival of Shelters).
Chiens errants à Maurice : Entre stérilisation, shelters et amendes, des propositions pour sortir de l'impasse by TOPFM MAURITIUS
In this episode, we dive into two topics that might just save you stress—or even your life. Dog Training: Why a “Growl” Speaks Louder Than Words First, we explore the importance of putting a "handle" on your dog or puppy at a young age. Discover how using a natural, mother-like growl can teach respect, set boundaries, and prevent long-term behavioral issues—without yelling or punishment. Setting Boundaries Early with Your Dog or Puppy Putting a “handle” on your dog or puppy at an early age is critical for establishing authority and structure. A dog that respects boundaries grows into a confident, balanced companion. Why a Growl Works Using a low, natural growl as a correction tool mimics the way a mother dog disciplines her pups. It's instinctual, effective, and avoids yelling or physical punishment. Growling is a natural, recognizable tone for dogs. It grabs attention and commands respect without fear. This technique works best when started young, alongside leash work inside the home. Tornado Season 2025: Camping, Shelters & Staying Safe Tornado Activity Is Surging in 2025 Next we shift focus to Tornado Season 2025, which is already more intense than 2024. With 1,296 tornado reports as of June—well above the historical average—we break down what every family or camping group needs to know. From finding shelter at campgrounds (or lack thereof) to understanding the difference between a Tornado Watch and Warning, this is a must-listen for anyone traveling, camping, or living in storm-prone areas. Notable Trends: Iowa: 100 tornadoes in June 2024 → only 16 in June 2025. North Dakota: 2 tornadoes in June 2024 → 34 in June 2025. Whether you're raising a pup or planning your next outdoor trip, this episode brings practical tips and critical awareness together in one powerful conversation.

The Wood Street encampment in West Oakland was at one point the largest homeless encampment Northern California. In 2023, the city of Oakland completed final evictions of Wood Street residents. Dozens of Wood Street residents ended up at a city-funded shelter site where part of the encampment used to be. It includes an RV park and a "community cabins" site. Now, this shelter site is scheduled to close on Monday. Today, Oakland journalist and filmmaker Caron Creighton tells us about the cabin sites, and introduces us to two unhoused people who have been living there. Learn more about your ad choices.

The recent Iranian missile fire on Israel underscored protection gaps in the Israeli population, especially Bedouin society in the Negev where the longstanding lack of adequate shelter is acute, affecting other critical spheres of life. Ilan Amit, co-CEO of AJEEC-NISPED, an Arab-Jewish organization for social change, presented the issue in Knesset parliamentary committee discussions this week. He later spoke with KAN reporter Naomi Segal (Photo: Reuters. Inset: Courtesy AJEEC-NISPED)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Fifteen days before the Festival of Shelters began, the priests had begun to sacrifice burnt offerings to the Lord. This was even before they had started to lay the foundation of the Lord's Temple (Ezra 3:6). Lord, you're worthy!

Tuesday's second hour.
Shelters are full and overburdened, and that puts women and gender diverse people at risk — especially when many are escaping bad situations at home. The conversation is around the importance and challenges of women and gender diverse shelters...the need for shelters, and transitional housing, gender violence, how poverty impacts the need.
For the last three nights in a row, ever since Israel's military and the Mossad began the ongoing strikes on Iran's nuclear program, Maddy Eisenberg and Dave Heilbron—two Canadian tourists in the Holy Land—have been spending hours sheltering in a safe zone beneath a beachfront hotel in Tel Aviv. The two only met this week, while participating in a government-sponsored trip for Jewish LGBTQ leaders who were meant to attend Tel Aviv's famous Pride parade. That was supposed to take place on June 13—but the parade was hurriedly cancelled, and their itinerary curtailed, as news of the initial strikes broke. Since then, every time air raid sirens go off, or their phones alert them to incoming Iranian rockets and missiles, they rush down to the bomb shelter and ride out the anxious hours, together with other tourists and Israelis alike. While the death toll of Israelis killed and wounded continues to climb, and first responders try to dig out those still missing from direct hits on Bat Yam and other Israeli cities, the Pride delegates—who are required to stay within 100 metres of the hotel—are now also worrying about how they will get home, since all flights in and out of the country have been cancelled until further notice. Maddy Eisenberg, a broadcaster and communications strategist in Ottawa, and Dave Heilbron, a human resources executive and Jewish leader now living in the Netherlands, join North Star podcast host Ellin Bessner to describe what they're seeing on the ground.

*Bonus Episode from the Muddy Paws and Hairballs podcastThe no-kill movement promised to revolutionize animal sheltering by saving lives and ending unnecessary euthanasia. But behind the catchy slogans and glowing statistics, a different reality lurks – one that's rarely discussed. In this eye-opening conversation with animal welfare expert Daniel Ettinger, we dig deep into the issues plaguing some shelters striving for that elusive 90% live release rate.As a rescuer myself, I'm experiencing a system overwhelmed by its own ambitions. Shelters don't have a clear understanding of what it means to be no-kill, and communities are not set up to provide all the realities needed to make no-kill work. Instead, shelters are closing their doors when full to avoid euthanasia and maintain high live-release rates, finders are stuck with animals they can't keep, and rescues are buckling under overflow. Even worse, some animals are warehoused for years, leading to questionable quality of life. Daniel shares a more balanced alternative – SMART (Saving More Animals Responsibly Together), an approach that addresses the root causes and focuses on community resources, transparency, and responsible care.We discuss how the relentless pursuit of arbitrary statistics, like the 90% live release rate, has led to dangerous consequences, including the adoption of unsafe animals and public safety issues. We also explore why adopting more pets isn't the solution and how real change starts with accessible veterinary care, housing policy reform, and community education.This episode challenges the black-and-white thinking surrounding animal rescue and offers a fresh perspective on how we can all contribute to more sustainable, humane solutions. Tune in for an honest look at the no-kill movement and discover why we need a smarter approach to animal welfare.Comment on this episode!
