Send us a textWhat if the road back is actually the road forward? I share how a return to Amazon—after swearing I'd never go back—became the exact training ground I needed to rebuild credit, heal a stubborn knee, and reset my mindset from judgment to service. The story starts with a humbling wake-up call: unpaid tickets, a suspended license, and a courtroom line that revealed a town's quiet despair. Standing there, I chose a different posture—observe without scorn, shine where I stand, and build a bridge from survival to stability one clear step at a time.Inside the warehouse, everything looks different with an open mind. I swapped picking for stowing, trading steps for squats that doubled as physical therapy. The bigger surprise? My young supervisors, whose communication, care, and adaptability flipped my assumptions about age and authority. When you drop labels, learning arrives fast. Their support, plus timely encouragement—from a 72-year-old reinventing Tai Chi to my son holding steady for his new family—created a loop of courage that pushed me to close the dashing chapter, claim a steady paycheck, and free three full days each week to grow classes, write devotional work, and refine the long game.This is a practical roadmap for anyone straddling purpose and paycheck: acknowledge the bills, make a plan, stay humble, and let curiosity lead. Openness isn't passive; it's an active choice to see meaning where others see monotony, to listen when spirit says “not yet,” and to build capacity before you leap. If this resonates, tap follow, share it with someone who needs a reframe, and leave a review with one place you're choosing to stay open today.

In today's Daily Trudge, I'm talking about “Stepping Stones to Higher Things.” In recovery, the things that once tripped us up often become the very stones that lift us higher. Every setback, mistake, or hard season can become a step toward growth — if we're willing to see it that way. In this episode, I share how to reframe life's challenges as spiritual stepping stones, how to find purpose in the pain, and how each lesson we learn becomes part of the foundation that carries us closer to freedom and peace. One day at a time, we're not falling behind — we're stepping up.

What if recovery isn't about a finish line but about finding meaning in the messy middle? In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, Dr. Marianne Miller welcomes journalist, professor, and author Mallary Tenore Tarpley to talk about her groundbreaking new book, Slip: Life in the Middle of Eating Disorder Recovery. Mallary shares her powerful story of developing anorexia at age 12 after her mother's death, navigating years of treatment, and later facing a decade-long cycle of bingeing and restricting. She describes how she reframed her experience through the concept of “The Middle Place,” which is a space between acute illness and full recovery where slips are not failures but opportunities for growth. Through her lens as a journalist and storyteller, Mallary highlights the importance of expanding the language of recovery. Instead of labeling experiences as “quasi-recovery” or “pseudo-recovery,” she offers a more compassionate and nuanced perspective...one that validates ongoing struggles while still holding space for progress and hope.

The third sermon in this series emphasizes serving God acceptably through a commitment to righteousness, peace, and edification rather than judgment. It explores the concept of imputed and imparted righteousness, highlighting the importance of meditating on God's word and presenting one's body as a living sacrifice. The message underscores the need to separate from unrighteousness, prioritize spiritual growth, and embrace suffering for Christ's sake, ultimately leading to a life of purpose and blessing for both the individual and those around them.

Dan Sindel is truly a “unique” and “one of a kind” artist like no other out there in music land. Dan's songwriting features a multi-layered approach to recording guitars and vocals that integrates myriads of styles and genres into a hard rocking experience streamlined for mass appeal. Unpopular Music for Popular People Vol.1 is Dan's debut (5 song) EP and features the radio friendly tracks; STEPPING STONE, RULE THE WORLD and ALL DUE REPSECT as well as two “6 minute deep cut” tracks; EDGE OF ETERNITY and SAY GOODBYE which would satisfy anyone with a love for classic rock /progressive hard rock/heavy metal with their technical rhythmic changes, orchestrated guitars and solid vocal production.The Los Angeles based singer/songwriter/guitarist takes his musical upbringing of 60's and 70's pop songs and classic rock, 80's-90's metal and all things current and mixes up slightly atypical artists (think: Alice in Chains meet The Byrds or perhaps the aggression of Metallica infused with Blue Oyster Cult, The BEATLES or ELO) to create those unique melodies and harmonies. Dan says, “To me, the best parts of a song are the hooks and melodies, whether vocal or instrumental they have to catch the listener's ear and be extraordinarily memorable.”As a survivor of the legendary 80's LA Heavy Metal scene, Dan has shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the rock and metal music world (ACCEPT, SAXON, KING DIAMOND, RACER X, WENDY O. WILLIAMS, ARMORED SAINT, METAL CHURCH, FLOTSAM & JETSAM, GRIM REAPER, HED-PE, MUSHROOMHEAD and HELMET being but a few) but he'd rather not be looked at as “just a metal guy” as he refuses to be typecast and limited by musical genre.“Dan states: “It is the responsibility of a true artist to find his own voice and represent the thoughts and feelings that one has and to share it in a way that hopefully does not simply mirror someone else's work, to capture the spirit and intent of the artists vision is the essence of art itself.”Unpopular Music for Popular People Vol.1 is absolute proof that bringing influences from several different musical genres can co-exist in one finely tuned package and is available on all popular streaming platforms as well as his accompaniment videos on Youtube.APPLE MUSIC: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/dan-sindel/261257155SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/12JOM4gAm4nuaXD8GXLW3xAMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/music/player/artists/B0019DMEM4/dan-sindelYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@halipinoWWW: http://dansindel.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan & Cameron dive into a nuanced theological discussion on Ross Douthat's latest book Believe, exploring the provocative idea that religion—even in its broadest form—can serve as a legitimate and vital stepping stone toward Christianity. They examine Douthat's arguments through the lens of current cultural disinterest in organized faith, C.S. Lewis's concept of “mere Christianity,” and spiritual seekers like Simone Weil and David Foster Wallace. Is structured religion still the best place to begin a sincere search for truth in the modern age? Join them as they wrestle with these questions, challenge each other, and consider whether religion is a crutch, a catalyst, or a compass in a post-Christian world.

A generation ago, student ministers would often make the leap to the lead pastor role after a few years. Does this kind of move still happen? If so, is it a good thing or not? Unfortunately, sometimes ministry positions outside of the lead pastor are seen as a lesser role in the life of the church. Josh and Sam break down the good and bad of leaping from student ministry to lead pastor. The post Is Student Ministry Still a Stepping Stone? appeared first on Church Answers.

In the lower section, SteppingStones and park officials are collaborating on what is described as a fully-inclusive, completely accessible, multi-generational playground. Much like the playground, Mylan Park's new KOA Campground will likely see its first visitors in May 2025. If that were not enough, Mylan Park also is scheduled to host competitive hockey this fall. The large steel structure taking shape in the heart of the park's lower bowl is a $15 million hockey arena. State officials say everything is on track and running smoothly.

One unwritten musical. Twelve courageous women. And stories that created healing beyond imagination. What if those detours in your life—the ones that seem like they're taking you off course—are actually preparing you for your true destiny? In this episode, I reveal how my journey as a storyteller began decades ago with a musical that was never produced, and how that seemingly "failed" project became the first stepping stone toward "Become Empowered"—a book that turned into a movement. Exactly one year ago today, "Become Empowered: Echoes of Grace and Strength" was released into the world—an anthology that has since created deep healing, unexpected reunions, and lasting impact in ways I never could have imagined. But the road to this book started over 30 years ago, when my husband challenged me to write a musical script that I thought I couldn't write. Join me as I share how reluctance turned into revelation, how each "failure" led to something greater, and how storytelling—first as an actress, then as a writer—became my purpose. Because we must become the person we are meant to be to live the life we are destined to live. This is a celebration of courage, healing, and the power of saying "yes" to your calling.   Website: https://www.sabinekvenberg.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/SabineKvenberg LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/sabinekvenberg/ Free Masterclass:  The 4-Step to Speak Like A Pro and Get Clients.
