Dallas the Dog Welcomes Skittish Sparrows. Jeremy details Dallas's affinity for birds, noting that usually skittish common garden sparrows are now drinking and eating from the dog's bowls. The destructive cockatoos, while still present and stripping pine trees, have thankfully avoided attacking the damaged roof. Crows remain cautious, staying distant to avoid aerial "dogfights" with the aggressive magpies. PURPLR FINCH

7. The Tree Sparrow: Mao's Folly and the Emu Wars AUTHOR: Stephen Moss BOOK TITLE: 10 Birds That Changed the World This excerpt details Mao's 1958 "Four Vermin" campaign targeting the Tree Sparrow. Maoordered the sparrows killed, believing they consumed grain; however, because sparrows feed their young on insects, their eradication led to an insect population boom. The subsequent crop failures caused a famine that resulted in potentially 45 to 50 million deaths, making it the worst human-created disaster in history. The segment contrasts this tragedy with the "Emu Wars" in 1930s Australia, where highly adaptable Emussuccessfully defeated the Australian army. 1938

At first glance, many of the sparrows in North America look pretty much the same: like small, drab-colored songbirds hanging out on the ground. But these “little brown jobs” can be fun to identify if you know what field marks to look for!More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

Addressing hunger should be about more than just putting food on the table. That's exactly what Angels & Sparrows in Huntersville has been proving since 2008.  While they're feeding people, they're also empowering them to find long-term stability so they can break the cycle. In this episode, Host Pamela Escobar is joined by Interim Executive Director Brandi Jones to discuss how Angels & Sparrows approach helps people transition from survival mode to thriving mode – and how you can support their mission.

Higher education institutions face strained budgets, declining enrollments, and shifting donor behavior—making fundraising a strategic priority, not just an operational function. In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Bill Crouch, CEO of BrightDot and former university president, about how presidents and boards can strengthen higher education fundraising by aligning it with strategic planning. Topics Covered: Why fundraising must be integrated into institutional strategic planning The shift from the 80/20 rule to today's 95/5 donor reality The concept of “mattership” and why donors need assurance that their lives matter Eagles vs. Sparrows as a framework for donor tiers Updating the Five I's of fundraising with creativity and emotional intelligence Why presidents should dedicate two hours a week to intentional donor cultivation How boards can become fundraising multipliers through accountability and “Perk Banks” The growing importance of local impact in donor decision-making Real-World Examples Discussed: A philanthropist redirecting gifts locally to ensure her contributions “mattered most” The researcher who cried after 16 years without ever being thanked for her role in million-dollar gifts A president telling his young faculty member, “You're asking today,” in a million-dollar donor meeting The lasting impression of a three-sentence handwritten note from President George H. W. Bush Three Key Takeaways for Leadership: Fundraising must be elevated into strategy, not treated as a background function. Presidents should focus time and energy on cultivating high-capacity relationships while modeling gratitude across the institution. Boards need clear expectations and creative tools to fully activate their networks and influence.

Professor of avian behavioural ecology at Macquarie University in Australia, Simon Griffith joins Emile Donovan.

Billy Graham once said, “Tell me what you think about money, and I will tell you what you think about God, for these two are closely related.”In Jesus' Parable of the Talents, we see that stewardship isn't just about money—it's about how we view God. Today, Taylor Standridge joins me to explore how our image of God influences the way we give, spend, and live.Taylor Standridge is the Production Manager here at Faith and Finance, co-author of Look at the Sparrows, our 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and Anxiety, and a frequent contributor to our quarterly magazine, Faithful Steward, as well as other FaithFi studies and devotionals.Our View of God Shapes EverythingA.W. Tozer once wrote, “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” This truth has enormous implications for stewardship. How we see God determines how we handle what He has entrusted to us.If we see Him as generous, trustworthy, and sovereign, we will hold our resources with open hands and joyful hearts, confident that He is both our provider and our treasure. But if we see Him as distant, demanding, or indifferent, we may fall into reluctant giving, fearful hoarding, or selfish spending.Stewardship is far more than budgets and giving—it is about trust, worship, and living in light of who we believe God to be. A distorted view of God is like setting sail with the wrong coordinates: you may move with confidence, but you'll end up in the wrong place.Lessons from the Parable of the TalentsIn Matthew 25, the tragedy of the third servant wasn't his lack of ability—it was his lack of trust. Believing his master to be a “hard man,” he buried what was given to him. His fear led to inaction.This parable isn't only about money. The “talents” represent everything God entrusts to us—time, relationships, opportunities, gifts, and resources. Faithful stewardship flows not from skill, but from trust. The first two servants stepped out boldly because they trusted their master's character. Their faith led to joy, not judgment: “Enter into the joy of your master.”The deeper warning is this: when we misjudge God's heart, we hold back. When we trust His goodness, we invest boldly for His Kingdom.Obedience as God's GiftMany believers think of obedience as something they give to God. But Scripture reminds us that even obedience is a gift of grace. “It is God who works in you to will and to act according to His good purpose” (Phil. 2:13). He not only prepares good works for us (Eph. 2:10)—He empowers us to walk in them.This truth transforms stewardship from a burden into a blessing. We're not managing resources to prove ourselves; we're participating in the good works God has already prepared. Stewardship becomes a relational act of grace, not a transactional duty.The Sobering Warning—and the Joyful InvitationIn Matthew 7, Jesus warns that some will say, “Lord, Lord,” but hear Him reply, “I never knew you.” The issue wasn't activity—it was relationship. Faithful stewardship begins with knowing God as gracious, faithful, and abundantly generous.If you feel stuck or fearful—like the third servant—remember this: God isn't waiting to punish you. He invites you to trust Him. Start small. Ask Him to reshape your view, to see Him not as a harsh master, but as a loving Father.As 2 Timothy 1:7 declares, “God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” When we live from that truth, stewardship becomes delight, not duty. We don't just manage money; we step into joy, walking with the One who is our ultimate treasure.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm a retired senior and recently heard about the new $6,000 tax break. How does this affect my overall tax liability? Should I consider withdrawing a larger amount from my 401(k) to maximize this deduction?I used to work in the financial field selling tax-sheltered annuities, and I've always thought they were strong investment options. Lately, I've noticed some advisors speaking negatively about annuities.

These are rare and contingent on getting all expected work done, and can be withdrawn for "bad" behavior (such as talking back or thinking independently).I honestly have no idea what an "airing cupboard" is. According to the pictures and descriptions I found online, it seems to be what we silly Americans would call a "linen closet," to keep towels, sheets, and other linen in, but when Jon said he used it for airing clothes, it only confused me further. Help/ clarification from other UK folks would be welcome.Sparrows are lovely birds and deserve all the love, kindness, and breadcrumbs they can get.

Somehow it happened, we've passed the halfway mark for 2025 (where did the time go)! That means it's time to take a look at my reading journey so far (yes, I know it's a bit late). So, in this episode, I'm reflecting on the books that have shaped the last six months, the highs, the lows and everything in between. Well, not quite everything, that would take a little bit too long! I'll be talking honestly about what worked for me, what didn't quite hit the mark, and why. Of course, there was that one stand-out read that should already be placed on a podium somewhere, and I am going to be working up to that one, because it's special...and if you haven't read it already, maybe you should...I can't wait to tell you why it's stayed with me long after the final page. Plus, if you're already planning your next few reads, I'll also be sharing the titles I'm most looking forward to for the rest of the year. Whether you're here for inspiration, reflection, or just to compare notes, if you find joy in a good book and love to talk about them, you're in the right place. Sit back, relax and enjoy my six-month check-in, a month late! Mentioned Episodes Brat: An '80s Story by Andrew McCarthy Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry Death of the Author by Nnedi Okorafor

Migratory birds connect the Northern Plains with many parts of the Western Hemisphere. Lark Buntings, Baird's Sparrows, Upland Sandpipers, and many other birds winter from Central to southern South America. But their reproduction depends on the bounty of the prairie spring. Disrupting any part of their annual life cycle — breeding habitat, stopover places during spring and fall migration, and wintering habitat — reduces the survival of the species.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

In today's world, scarcity seems to be everywhere. Not enough money. Not enough time. Not enough security. It's easy to live like we're always behind, always grasping, always worried. But is that the full story?Here at FaithFi, we believe Scripture paints a different picture—one where scarcity isn't the final word. Instead, through Christ, we're invited to live with hope, wisdom, and trust in God's abundant care.The Root of ScarcityThe fear of “not having enough” isn't new. Ever since sin entered the world, our hearts have struggled with distrust. In John 10:10, Jesus describes the enemy as a thief who “comes only to steal and kill and destroy.” And that's what a scarcity mindset does. It steals peace, kills joy, and destroys our trust in God's provision.This mindset urges us to hoard instead of share, grasp instead of give, and stress instead of rest. It traps us in anxiety—a form of slavery where our lives are defined by what we lack instead of who God is.Jesus doesn't leave us in fear. In the second half of John 10:10, He offers a better way: “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”This abundance isn't about luxury—it's about the richness of God's care. From the very beginning, God created generously. Genesis 1 shows a God who overflows with creativity and provision, filling the skies, seas, and land with life. He didn't create out of need but out of joy.As Elisabeth Elliot wisely said, “God has promised to supply all our needs. What we don't have now, we don't need now.”Jesus Offers Something BetterJesus lived simply, with no home of His own, yet He never operated from scarcity. He lived generously, turning water into wine, feeding multitudes, and offering forgiveness to all. In Matthew 6:25–34, He urges us not to worry, pointing to the birds and lilies as evidence of the Father's care.“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,” Jesus tells us, “and all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). This is the antidote to fear: a trust-filled life focused on God's Kingdom.So, how do we break free from the scarcity trap? Here are a few biblical steps:1. Renew Your MindRomans 12:2 calls us to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. Ask God to help you see life through the lens of His abundance, not the world's lack.2. Practice GratitudeThankfulness shifts our focus from what's missing to what God has already provided. It's a simple but powerful habit that reorients our hearts toward trust.3. Embrace StewardshipWe are not owners but stewards. Everything we have is a gift from God. Proverbs 3:9 reminds us to “Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce.”4. Give in FaithDon't give out of fear—give out of faith. 2 Corinthians 9:8 promises that God will provide all we need so that we can abound in every good work.God Is More Than EnoughLiving in God's abundance doesn't guarantee an easy life. But it does guarantee we never face our challenges alone, and we never need to be enslaved by fear.So when the world says, “There's not enough,” we can respond with confidence: Our God is more than enough. His abundance isn't just material—it's spiritual. It's peace, joy, and confidence that our Father knows exactly what we need.If you're struggling with financial fear or anxiety, we invite you to explore our 21-day devotional, Look at the Sparrows. It's designed to help you shift from fear to faith as you grow in your trust of God's provision. Order a copy or place a bulk order today at FaithFi.com/Sparrows. Let this journey lead you into deeper peace and stronger trust, because your Father really does care for you.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've been looking into Fisher Investments to help manage my portfolio, but their 1.25% advisory fee seems a bit high. With $1.4 million in assets, is that rate competitive, or should I be considering other options?I'm on a limited income and have had serious health issues in the past. My husband is retired, and I'm struggling to find affordable health insurance. I'm also worried that my health history might lead to penalties or denial. What are my best options?I set up an LLC for a rental property and assumed I could report the income as a pass-through on my personal 1040. But my tax preparer says I now need to make quarterly estimated tax payments. Is that really necessary, and how do I know what to pay?I'm 62 and a half and thinking about retiring early this coming January. My current job no longer aligns with my values. I plan to take Social Security at around $1,835/month, which is about $500 less than my current income. My wife is still working and will cover our health insurance.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we dove deeper into our weekly theme of “Killing Sin” by discussing the importance of eradicating sin. We were all born into sin, so it’s the nature of our flesh to sin, but we aren’t bound to it because Jesus Christ delivered us from it. As followers of Christ, we are to cast down and kill the sin, which is precisely what God wants us to do. We turned to Proverbs 6:16-19, where we see how God feels about sin. We then examined Romans 12:1-2, where Paul instructs us to present our bodies as holy to God and not to be conformed to the world. Are you killing the sin in your life? Dr. Drew Dickens also joined us to discuss how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help us overcome sin. Dr. Dickens is a visionary leader, AI expert, and scholar who has made significant contributions to the intersection of technology, spirituality, and faith-based engagement. He is also the founder of the Encountering Peace app and the Encounter Podcast, which provides biblical meditations, resources, and dialogue. Dr. Dickens has also authored the book “Whispers of the Spirit: A 40-Day Guide to Intimate Prayer.” We then had Rob West join us to discuss the three sins we need to overcome to achieve biblical financial stewardship: Greed, Fear, and Pride. Rob West is the host of the nationally syndicated radio program, Faith and Finance Live, which airs weekday afternoons at 3 pm on 90.1FM. He is also the host of the Faith and Finance podcast and the CEO of Kingdom Advisors, a community of financial professionals who deliver biblically wise financial advice. Rob has also authored the 21-day devotional, “Look at the Sparrows.” You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
