She Breaks Free....Ditch the Diet & Change Your Relationship with Food & Fitness
Today's Faithful Friday is an invitation to rethink what stewardship really means. When you hear the word stewardship, you might immediately think about money or time—but have you ever considered that your health is something God has entrusted to you as well? So many women live at one of two extremes: either completely neglecting their health or obsessing over it in ways that feel heavy, rigid, and exhausting. But biblical stewardship was never meant to look like punishment or perfection. It was meant to look like faithfulness. In this episode, we're talking about what it truly means to steward your health in a way that honors God, supports your energy, and releases you from the pressure to “have it all together.” Because caring for your body isn't about vanity—it's about walking faithfully with what you've been given. If you're craving a calmer, more grace-filled approach to health, this conversation is for you. And if you'd like more support and accountability, I'd love to connect with you.

The Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast: Lead Like Never Before
In this episode, Carey asks the question of whether we're selling church growth and marketing revival on social media. As leaders, our motives are always mixed, and Carey offers a framework for checking our motives before posting on social media. Momentum doesn't need marketing. Don't sell it. Steward it.
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 6:12-14. We live in a world that treats the body like a playground—something to indulge, use, bend, and satisfy at any cost. Corinth wasn't any different. They had a saying they loved to quote: "All things are lawful for me." Translation: "I can do whatever I want with my body." But Paul takes that slogan and makes a theological adjustment, as any good Bible teacher would. "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be dominated by anything. "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power. — 1 Corinthians 6:12–14 The Corinthian church had built an entire theology to justify its sexual habits. And honestly? Churches and believers still do this today—reshaping doctrine, bending Scripture, and redefining holiness to accommodate whatever desires they refuse to surrender. For example: Some justify porn and masturbation: "It's natural." "No one gets hurt." Some justify same-sex attraction acted upon: "This is who I am." "God wouldn't deny love." Some justify multiple sexual partners: "It's just physical." "Everyone does it." Others justify emotional affairs, hookups, cohabitation, sexting, or "sleeping together because we love each other." Paul looks at all of this and declares, "Your logic is broken because your theology is broken." The Corinthians even had a clever argument for their desires: "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food…" In other words: "If my body craves it, then my body must be made for it." That logic is wild. It's like saying: "My anger flares easily, so God gave me the spiritual gift of rage." "I crave donuts at midnight, so clearly this is holy hunger." "I like Taylor Swift songs, so I must be a liberal." It sounds ridiculous because it is ridiculous. Desire never defines design. Craving never clarifies calling. Your body isn't disposable. It isn't personal property that you can use however you want. Your body has a calling. It belongs to the Lord. And the Lord is for your body. Created for holiness. Redeemed by Christ. Destined for resurrection. So don't surrender your body to impulse. Steward it and its worth. Your body isn't a playground for desire—it's a temple for the Lord. And when you understand the calling on your body, you stop using it for things that destroy it. DO THIS: Identify one desire that tries to dominate your body—lust, impulse, laziness, or escape—and surrender it to Christ today. ASK THIS: What desire most often tries to tell me my body belongs to me? How does remembering my body's calling reshape my choices today? Which impulse have I allowed to master me that Christ is calling me to resist? PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for claiming my body as Yours. Help me honor You with what I desire, what I pursue, and what I allow to shape my habits. Strengthen me to resist impulses that don't reflect who I am in Christ. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Lord, I Need You"

In this powerful message from Luke 19, we're reminded that the arrival of God's kingdom is not primarily about timing but about a Person—Jesus—who came “to seek and save the lost,” and whose presence brings the kingdom wherever He is. Using the parable of the nobleman and his servants, Pastor Josiah calls us to take seriously the assignments and opportunities we've been entrusted with now, because our faithfulness in the present realm prepares us for greater responsibility in the coming realm. The sermon warns against a fearful, passive faith that hides what's been given and instead urges risk, investment, and bold obedience—because sitting on what God gives results in loss, while faithful use multiplies it. The bottom line: make Jesus and His word your priority, let them shape how you live, and then step out to blitz culture with the message and power of God—He's already given you what you need to honor Him.

Téma Omeletek je počasí. Při cestě letadlem byly turbulence. Pořád jsem chytala za ruku stewarda a chtěla víc vína, víc pozornosti a zase víc vína a prášky. Pak jsem plačtivě zanaříkala: „Já se tak strašně bojím!“ Letadlo se v turbulencích třáslo jako blázen a steward mi tiše řekl: „Já taky!“ Halina Pawlowská nabídne recept na kaldoun s játrovými knedlíčky a přečte povídku Polévka je grunt.

On this episode of the Panoramic Outdoors Podcast, Sheldon sits down with Wisconsin land manager and conservation advocate Doug Duren for a grounded, honest conversation about land stewardship, whitetail management, Chronic Wasting Disease, and life on a working family farm. Doug is widely known for his philosophy, “It's not ours, it's just our turn,” and he breaks down what that really means when you're responsible for hundreds of acres of habitat, livestock, timber, and wildlife. The conversation dives into practical land management strategies that actually improve whitetail habitat, the realities and long-term concerns surrounding CWD, and how deer movement, carcass disposal, and hunting pressure all play a role in herd health. Beyond the science and strategy, Doug shares what it's like balancing farming with conservation, navigating modern pressures on rural landowners, and why stewardship has to come before ego. His perspective from decades of managing his family farm in Wisconsin's Driftless region brings depth to the conversation and challenges hunters to think bigger than just the next season. This episode isn't just about killing bigger deer. It's about responsibility, legacy, and making sure the land and wildlife are stronger for the next generation.

A NOTE FROM OUR GUEST: "I wanted to make one correction that you can add to the podcast notes. I was saying General Early's Army at Nashville; I meant to say General John Bell Hood's Army was at Nashville. His army was defeated at Franklin and then Nashville. The losses from those two battles had lowered his army from 60,000 down to 8,000. Sorry, I got caught up in the conversation and said the wrong general's name. I just came back from a Mardi Gras event at church and it just hit me as I got back on my computer that I said Early instead of Hood." IN THIS EPISODE-

Stewardship is part of our original calling and an act of worship. We are called by God to steward wisely the resources God has entrusted to us.
Og hvad hvis historien primært bliver fortalt af rumskibets AI – en ældre model der konstant bekymrer sig om sin “efficiency percentage” og ikke rigtig forstår mennesker? Det er præmissen i Barbara Trueloves Of Monsters and Mainframes, en science fiction-gyser der blander klassiske monstre med AI-humor og en god portion intertekstuelle referencer. Om Barbara Truelove Barbara Truelove er australsk forfatter og game designer, og hun har åbenlyst en ting med varulve. Hendes første roman Crying Wolf (2021) handlede om tvillinger der opdager de er varulve. I 2023 lavede hun det interaktive tekstspil Blood Moon, hvor plotlinjen er: “Du er en varulv.” Og så kom Of Monsters and Mainframes i 2025. Hun fortæller selv at inspirationen kom fra at læse Bram Stokers Dracula og Martha Wells’ The Murderbot Diaries samtidigt. Men sandheden er mere rodet end det: “Dracula er en del af blandingen, ja, og det samme er Murderbot, men det samme er Universal Monsters, autopiloten i en Airbus, R2D2, min erfaring med at programmere interaktive spil og (måske mest af alt) mit liv i 2022.” Bogen blev nomineret til Goodreads Choice Award i kategorien Science Fiction og har over 9.000 ratings med gennemsnit på 4,09. Demeter – rumfærgen der ikke forstår mennesker Vores “hovedperson” er Demeter. Demeter er ikke en alvidende HAL-AI. Hun er primært bygget til at styre rumfærgen sikkert mellem stjernerne. Hun kan navigere uden om kometer og håndtere tekniske kriser. Men mennesker? Det er en helt anden sag. Når varulv-angrebet rammer og børnene Agnus og Isaac flygter op på broen efter deres bedstemor har forvandlet sig, går kommunikationen ikke så godt. “It’s just a dumb AI, Isaac,” siger Agnus. Demeter reagerer prompte: “I am not lacking intelligence. You are using words marked as moderately offensive. This is antisocial behavior.” Børnene bliver stille. “I am Demeter. I am the ship. I am your friend. Report your injuries.” De begynder at lave lyde i lavt volumen. Demeters systemer kan ikke oversætte det. “How’s it going?” spørger Steward, den medicinske AI. “I wish I could lie,” svarer Demeter. “Humans are hard.” Det er denne kamp med at forstå mennesker – og begrænsningerne i hendes algoritmer – der gør Demeter interessant. Hun er dybt inkompetent til menneskelig interaktion, og det meste af tiden prøver hun bare at undgå at forholde sig til sine passagerer. Bedstemoderen med de store tænder Et af bogens bedre øjeblikke er varulv-scenen. Børnenes bedstemor forvandler sig ved et uheld, og pludselig står Demeter i en desperat kamp for at redde Agnus og Isaac. Hun får varulven lokket ind i en luftsluse. Men så forvandler den sig tilbage til bedstemor – desperat, menneskelig, helt forsvarsløs. Demeter er bundet af den første robotlov (Asimov): ingen AI må skade et menneske. Men der er et kort øjeblik hvor bedstemoderen bliver til skygge – i overgangen mellem former. I præcis det øjeblik reagerer Demeter prompte og åbner luftslussen. Bogen lader det ligge i det uvisse om bedstemoderen selv også trykker på knappen. Det er et af de øjeblikke hvor Demeter teknisk set handler inden for sine regler – men samtidig… ja, du ved. Steward overtager – og tror det er nemt Da Demeter er lukket ned, og rumfærgen skal tilbage til Jorden, bliver opgaver overladt til Steward. Den medicinske AI beslutter sig for at overtage styringen af rumskibet. Hvor svært kan det være? “You know what? Being an autopilot isn’t all that hard. I don’t know why Demeter seemed so stressed all the time. It’s day one of our journey, and we haven’t crashed yet.” Der var dog en lille bump ved afgang. Men det var ikke Stewards skyld. Dokken bevægede sig. I hvert fald tror Steward det. “I don’t exactly speak exterior sensor. They seem very alarmed all the time, constantly screaming in a strange, disjointed dialect of JavaScript.” Stewards plan? “Embrace my managerial role and endeavor to do as little as possible. The subsystems will sort it out.” Det er morsomt at følge Stewards overmodige forsøg på at være kaptajn. Som de fleste læger tror Steward de kan lidt af det hele. En leg med referencer – men måske for fragmenteret Barbara Truelove har åbenlyst haft det superhyggeligt med at skrive den her bog. Hun fortæller selv at reglerne var: smid et monster ombord, prøv at få så mange jokes og referencer til monsterets populærkulturelle historie ind som muligt, og tænk over hvordan det ville fungere i rummet. Der er masser af sjove detaljer. Skibet der transporterer Dracula til London i Bram Stokers bog hedder også Demeter. Wilhelmina Murray er Jonathan Harkers forlovede i Dracula. I bogens fem dele er der binær kode der oversættes til små jokes som “Artificial is the best kind of intelligent” og “I have never seen electric sheep.” Det er meget hyggeligt. Men det er også lidt som om bogen ikke helt selv ved hvor den er på vej hen. Anders beskriver det som om Barbara har skrevet 121 scener med monstre og rum-AI, blandet kortene, og så forsøgt at strikke en rød tråd på den måde stykkerne landede. Den fornemmelse er der lidt af. Action-scenerne er heller ikke bogens styrke. De er lidt svære at følge med i – hvem gør hvad, hvornår, hvorhenne og hvorfor. Det føles som dårlige Marvel-action-scener, hvor man mister fornemmelsen af, hvad der foregår. Det fede – og det mindre fede Det fede ved bogen er AI’erne og deres interne dynamikker. Demeter og Steward der slås om hvem der er klogere. Steward der er træt af at blive slukket midt i sætninger med “priority override.” Den scene hvor Agnus kommer tilbage efter 15 år på Jorden og skal rejse med Demeter igen? Rørende. Skibet er blevet totalt refurbished, og Agnus genkender først slet ikke Demeter. Det øjeblik hvor hun skraber overfladen af og finder sin barndoms AI-mor – det er faktisk ret godt. Men karaktererne er lidt flade. Selv Agnus, som er tættest på en hovedperson, er lidt bleg. Og monstrene? De er sjove nok som pop-kultur-jokes, men ikke særlig interessante som karakterer. Det er underholdning så længe det varer – fed til en togtur – men ikke en der skal læses igen. Vurderingen Jens: ⭐⭐⭐ (tre stjerner). “Jeg synes jeg var godt underholdt. Det var et sjovt take, og jeg hyggede mig med alle de mange referencer. Det er ikke stor litteratur. Men af og til er det rart med noget let og fornøjeligt. Synes Demeters kamp med at forstå mennesker var kongesjov og også dens kollegiale kampe med Steward AI’en.” Anders: ⭐⭐⭐ (tre stjerner). “Jeg applauderer Barbara for at have fået en sjov idé og åbenlyst have haft det superhyggeligt med at skrive bogen. Men jeg var sært ligeglad med karaktererne, selvom Demeter og Steward havde deres øjeblikke. Jeg synes der var alt for meget fokus på ligegyldig action, og historien var alt for fragmenteret uden en god fornemmelse af udvikling.” Bogen minder os om Stefano Benni’s Terra – skør, vild og kreativ science fiction. Og selvfølgelig Blindsight af Peter Watts, som også har vampyrer i rummet. Adrian Tchaikovskys Service Model har også klare paralleller med robotter der forsøger at forstå sig selv og omverden. Jens og Anders har SCIFI SNAKKET Of Monsters and Mainframes. Shownotes til episoden om Of Monsters and Mainframes Siden sidst Anders Har set Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein på Netflix – meget teatralsk og med store armebevægelser. Kulisserne er for vilde. Den er lidt i stil med Dracula-filmatiseringen med Gary Oldman. Meget Guillermo del Toro-stil – hvis man er til det, er den vellykket. Anders gav den 6 ud af 10. Har læst The Other Valley af Scott Alexander Howard – en tidsrejsebog med meget lidt science i den. Vi lever i et mærkeligt parallelunivers hvor en by ligger i en dal. I dalen østpå lever de 20 år ude i fremtiden, i dalen vestpå 20 år tilbage i tiden. Meget strenge regler for at man ikke må gå frem og tilbage. Velskrevet og medrivende historie. Jens Har læst The Mercy of Gods af James S.A. Corey – Expanse-forfatterne er tilbage med en helt ny verden. Anbefalet af Søren Bjørn. Mercy of Gods foregår i en fjern fremtid på en planet hvor befolkningen kun har myter om koloniseringen. Vi er blandt videnskabsfolk som forsker i hvordan inkompatible træer af liv kan samleve. Men planeten bliver pludselig invaderet af en alien race – kæmpe hummer/knæler-agtige typer. Menneskeheden bliver sat på prøve for at se om man kan være en nyttig undersåt-race. Og samtidig går det op for os at der er en kæmpe galaktisk krig igang, og en af menneskene er blevet overtaget af en sværm af nanorobotter! Trailer ude for Ryan Gosling i rollen som Ryland Grace i Project Hail Mary af Andy Weir. Kommer i biffen den 20/3. Traileren spoiler bogen helt vildt, og der er kommet en masse action-scener som ikke findes i bogen. Lytternes input Masser af gode kommentarer fra kommentarfeltet om de gode læseoplevelser i 2025. Hennings top 3/2025: “Dying inside” af Robert Silverberg, 1972, om en ældre telepat der gradvist mister sin tankelæserevne. “Hard landing” af Algis Budrys, 1993, om hvordan en besætning fra en forulykket UFO forsøger at glide ind i og camouflere sig i det jordiske samfund. “Dark is the Sun”, af Philip Jose Farmer, 1979, om en Jord millioner af år ude i fremtiden, hvor Solen er ved at brænde sammen. Som Henning selv siger: “Det er eddermame nogle deprimerende indskud.” Frederik Aarup Lauritsen delte sin top 3 for 2025: Stiftelsen af Isaac Asimov, Station 11 af Emily St. John Mandel og Efter London af Richard Jefferies – en tussegammel post-apokalyptisk bog fra 1885. Kristofferabild har ikke så meget tid til at læse Sci-Fi for tiden – er gået en lille smule i stå med Count Zero. I 2025 var det bedste han (gen)læste Rendezvous With Rama, Restaurant At The End of The Universe og Murderbot 2 og 3. Michael har ikke fået læst så meget SF sidste år, men var sært glad ved Krystalverdenen af J.G. Ballard, The Ministry of Time på vores anbefaling – “det var jo næsten en hel hjertevarm sag – sjov at komme i gang med noget romance!” – og til sidst Jordboer af Sayaka Murata, som nok er en snitter i forhold til ren SF, men en tour de force i japansk dagligliv, body horror og nogle måske rumvæsner. “Prøv det. Den er crazy!” Majbritt Høyrup gjorde opmærksom på at Elle Cordova behandler The Power i sin blogklub. Hun vil anbefale to vidunderlige novellesamlinger af Ursula K. LeGuin: The Birthday of the World og Changing Planes. Lise bidrog med sine tre bedste bøger: American Elsewhere af Robert Jackson Bennett: Starter som Twin Peaks, går over i H. P. Lovecraft. En kvinde arver et hus i en by, som ikke findes på noget kort. Cosmicomics af Italo Calvino: Vi følger universets og Jordens tilblivelse gennem væsner/grundstoffer og deres oplevelser, interaktioner og kærlighed. En fin og underfundig lille novellesamling. The Prestige af Christopher Priest: En overraskende god bog. Hun har set filmen, men bogen er meget anderledes – hele det spekulative element fylder mere, og historien er langt mere mystisk. Næste gang Anders vælger næste bog: Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus fra 1818. Den fås gratis som Project Gutenberg Public Domain e-pop eller PDF. Man taler tit om den som den første moderne science fiction-bog, så den er nærmest pensum for SCIFI SNAK. Jens har tidligere syntes den var røvkedelig, men er nu klar til at prøve igen – måske er han et andet menneske nu.

When you get thirsty, stop looking at what they have. You cannot drink from another man's well, and they cannot give you the Mantle I designed for you alone. Return to the Waters where you buy without money and eat without price. It is time to recognize your own Mantle, take it up, and radiate the specific Grace I placed on your life. Steward what is yours. It's already been given.I LOVE YOU.Go deeper-> https://www.curlynikki.com/
Madelyn Alfano is CEO and owner of Maria's Italian Kitchen and a lifelong hospitality leader. Raised in her family's grocery and restaurant business, she brings decades of hands-on experience, people-first leadership and a deep belief in food, culture and community.Founded in Los Angeles in 1972, Maria's Italian Kitchen is a family-rooted, Southern Italian restaurant brand known for classic comfort food, consistent quality and warm hospitality. With eight locations, the brand has become a multigenerational neighborhood staple across Southern California.Alfano grew Maria's from a small takeout operation into a multi-unit brand while navigating major challenges, including the Northridge earthquake and rapid industry change. She serves on California and national restaurant boards and is a strong advocate for thoughtful leadership, employee respect and community-centered hospitality.Early lessons from her parents taught her that customers will tell you exactly what they want if you listen closely.True hospitality means treating everyone with the same respect, regardless of status or background.Clear, consistent communication is critical, especially as a business grows.Leadership requires calm focus during crises, even when things are chaotic behind the scenes.Hiring in hospitality should prioritize personality and attitude over technical skills.Strong culture is built by leading by example and meeting people where they are.Long-term employee retention comes from respect, flexibility and genuine care.What keeps guests coming back isn't just food, it's how they feel when they walk through the door. QUOTES “People will tell you what they want to buy. If you really listen, they'll show you exactly what belongs in your business.” (Madelyn)“You treat everyone the same, from the Getty's to the gardeners. My parents taught me that respect is non-negotiable.” (Madelyn)“Whoever walks through your front door, you need to embrace them and make them feel really good about who they are and where they are.” (Madelyn)“I was the original Instacart girl. We were delivering groceries long before anyone thought to call it that.” (Madelyn)“I had to pretend that someone was coming from Mars and had never worked in a restaurant before. That's how clear your communication has to be.” (Madelyn)“Regardless of the circumstances, if you stay focused and lead with intention, you can get through almost anything.” (Madelyn)“It's like a duck in water. Underneath, you're paddling like crazy, but on top you have to look calm and steady.” (Madelyn)“Don't confuse my kindness for weakness or my casualness for not being serious. I'm very intense about our business.” (Madelyn)“I'm very interested in people. It's better to be interested than interesting.” (Madelyn)“Our first customers are the people we work with. If you don't respect your team, nothing else works.” (Madelyn)

How should Christians steward money in the end times without fear, greed, or confusion?In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, I sit down with author and Bible teacher Steve Wohlberg to talk about biblical money stewardship and why financial wisdom matters now more than ever. Many believers struggle with the tension between preparing for the future and trusting God fully—especially when Scripture reminds us that Jesus is coming soon.We unpack how financial stress impacts mental health, physical well-being, and even relationships, and why ignoring money doesn't make us more spiritual. Steve shares why the Bible calls us to both be ready and occupy until Christ returns, and how wise financial decisions can actually bring greater peace, clarity, and freedom to serve others.If you've ever felt uneasy talking about money in church, overwhelmed by finances, or unsure how to plan while keeping your faith first, this conversation will give you practical insight and biblical encouragement you can actually use.Chapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:25] Topic and Guest Introduction[05:05] Steve's Wake-Up Call About Retirement & Stewardship[09:39] The Interconnection of Health and Finances[12:27] Giving vs. Earning: Why Both Matter Biblically[14:12] How Steve Manages and Learn About Finance[16:40] Two Pillars of Truth[18:05] The Love of Money vs. Wise Stewardship[21:22] End-Times Economics: Buying, Selling & Control[23:10] Why Financial Peace Improves Longevity[25:16] Practical Steps for Financial Health[27:20] Investing Wisely for the Future[30:17] Building Wealth for Kingdom Work[33:45] The 10 Commandments & Financial Wisdom[37:40] Why This Book Is a Missionary Tool[39:30] Conclusion and ResourcesResources mentioned:Get your copy of Be Wise With Your Money in These End Times by Steve W.

Sunday morning message from the pulpit of Shawano Baptist Church
Life is a gift and a blessing from God, filled with many things that are good and sweet. God gave us many beautiful things to enjoy. But the harsh reality is that one day, our eyes will grow dim and our hair will turn gray. This is why youth, in particular, is a time to seize the day and live your life in the presence of God. Don't waste the special opportunities that the Lord has given you to make your life count now. Steward the blessings that come with youthfulness, and don't let the world snuff out your joy in Christ. Trust in Jesus now, because you don't know how much time you will have. Then you will be able to look forward to meeting your Maker with hope and joy!

Executive Pastor, Dr. Stephen Trammell, shares that the parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14-30 reveals how believers can live meaningfully while anticipating Christ's return. God entrusts each person with resources according to their abilities, expecting faithful stewardship rather than fearful inaction. Two servants doubled their investments through wise action, while one buried his talent out of fear and misunderstanding of his master's character. Faithfulness requires both faith and action across all areas of life - finances, relationships, health, and spiritual growth. God will reward those who prove faithful during this time between Christ's first and second coming. Your belief determines where you spend eternity, but your behavior determines how you spend eternity.
