This week at STUDIO, we welcomed back Nate Edwardson, from The Stirring in Redding, California. He took us into 1 Samuel 16, where God chooses David to be the next king of Israel. At the heart of this story lies a profound truth: before God anoints a new generation, He first heals the spiritual fathers and mothers who will pour into them. The prophet Samuel is stuck in mourning over Saul's failure, unable to move forward until God speaks these transformative words: 'You've mourned long enough.” This passage challenges us to examine whether we're allowing past disappointments to define our future. Nate's talk reminds us that we cannot anoint what God is doing next while we're still standing over yesterday's graves. God is raising up a generation of people after His own heart, but He needs healed, whole, and oil-filled leaders to recognize and release them. The call is clear: it's time to leave the cave of disappointment, become renewed in His Spirit, and position ourselves to see those who God has already prepared in the next generation.For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

“I really care a lot about what the student wants to get out of our time together: finding a nice, healthy, balanced phonation that they identify with, that they feel is their true sound, not something I'm forcing them to sound like. More than anything I want my students to feel confident and empowered in making their own voice sound out loud. I just want people to feel joyful and confident participating in the creation of art with their voice.”Mandy Matthews is an active Brooklyn based cross-genre singer and teacher. She performs regularly in musical theater cabaret nights, pop and jazz a cappella small groups, and sings with multiple choirs including The Marble Choir (NYC), The Young New Yorker's Chorus, and The Sedona Academy of Chamber Singers. Throughout her undergrad and master's studies, she appeared regularly in operatic, cabaret, and musical productions. Mandy has music directed multiple youth music theater productions around the country, served as a high school choral director, maintained a private voice, piano, and theory studio since 2016, and has guest taught at various academies, universities, and conservatories. In 2023, she co-founded Berklee College of Music/Boston Conservatory's first ever student chapter of the National Association of Teachers of Singing. She graduated with her masters of music in vocal pedagogy from The Boston Conservatory in 2024, and a bachelors in voice performance from Northern Arizona University in 2018.To get in touch with Mandy, you can visit her website, mandymatthews.com, find her on Instagram (@mandymatthews_voice), or email her at outloudmusiclessons@gmail.com.Email choirfampodcast@gmail.com to contact our hosts.Podcast music from Podcast.coPhoto in episode artwork by Trace Hudson

In this riveting episode of the KDKD Weird News, host Steve Stevens delves into the peculiar yet fascinating world of dynamic pricing in grocery stores. With the rise of electronic shelf labels in major chain markets like Walmart and Target, shoppers are encountering unexpected price fluctuations based on the time of day or even the specific consumer. But what does this mean for the everyday shopper, and is it fair? Join us as we explore public opinions on this controversial practice and why a significant majority are in favor of banning such measures.
As we prepare for the Feast of Pentecost this Sunday, Ralph asks the question, "Is Pentecost just an historical event, the birthday of the Church, or is it something more?” He boldly asserts that the power of Pentecost is intended to be a continuing reality in the Church, as is clearly taught in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. He then examines some reasons why we may not be experiencing the power of Pentecost in our own lives and prays with us to “stir up the gift” that we have been given in the Sacrament of Confirmation.
In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend, professional actor, and educator Jeff Miller for a deep dive into the work of Jungian psychoanalyst James Hollis. We discuss why a life focused on meaning trumps the superficial cultural chase for happiness, how to face our personal shadow, and the challenging but liberating reality of taking absolute responsibility for our own lives. From navigating personal blowups with aging parents to finding ultimate wisdom in literature, Jeff shares how Hollis's writing fundamentally shifted his perspective on navigating the second half of life.

Peter opens 2 Peter 3 with two pastoral aims: to stir up the sincere minds of his readers and to call them back to the truth they already know. False teachers in his day were mocking the promise of Christ's return — dismissing it as myth and pointing to the silence of the centuries as proof it would never happen. Peter's answer? Remember what has been promised.In this expository message, Pastor Jim Osman walks through 2 Peter 3:1–4, showing that Peter's first move against the mockers is not an argument — it is a reminder. He reminds his readers of the prophetic testimony of the Old Testament and the apostolic testimony of Jesus and the New Testament writers: Christ is coming back in power, in glory, and in judgment. This promised return is not a footnote — it is referenced in every New Testament book but two, across 300 passages in 260 chapters.Osman also lays out the full outline of chapter 3, setting up a multi-week series: the doubters' derisions (vv. 1–4), the dismantling of their denials (vv. 5–10), and the duties of the disciples in light of Christ's return (vv. 11–18).The return of Christ is comfort for the believer and a sober warning for the unbeliever. Don't let the passage of time dull your expectation. He promised. He does not lie. He is coming. ★ Support this podcast ★

In recent years, Americans have faced a deluge of horrifying developments in politics and culture: stolen elections, fascist rallies, families torn apart and locked away. A common refrain erupts at each new atrocity: This isn't who we are. In American Rule, Jared Yates Sexton upends those convenient fictions by laying bare the foundational myths at the heart of our collective American imagination. From the very origins of this nation, Americans in power have abused and subjugated others; enabling that corruption are the many myths of American exceptionalism and steadfast values, which are fed to the public and repeated across generations. Working through each era of American growth and change, Sexton weaves together the origins and perpetuation of these narratives still in the public memory, and the acts we have chosen to forget. Stirring, deeply researched, and disturbingly familiar, American Rule is a call to examine our own misconceptions of what it means, and has always meant, to be an American. listen and subscribe to Jared's Podcast subscribe to his substack newsletter Pete on Blue Sky Pete on Threads Pete on Tik Tok Pete on YouTube Pete on Twitter Pete On Instagram Pete Personal FB page Stand Up with Pete FB page All things Jon Carroll Follow and Support Pete Coe Buy Ava's Art Hire DJ Monzyk to build your website or help you with Marketing
Tom Bower's upcoming book Betrayal: Power, Deceit and the Fight for the Future of the Royal Family continues to generate headlines with a series of new claims about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.One section focuses on the charity Sentebale, where Bower writes that Harry reacted angrily after being shown the results of a brand audit suggesting that his personal reputation had declined following the release of his memoir Spare and the couple's Netflix projects.The book also revisits Meghan's appearance at the One Young World summit in Manchester, with Bower claiming organisers were concerned about a speech that he says focused heavily on her personal experiences.Another chapter examines Meghan's high-profile appearance at a Balenciaga fashion show in Paris, where Bower suggests the trip may have involved expenses of around $250,000, including travel, accommodation and couture fashion.Elsewhere, testimony in the High Court privacy case involving Prince Harry reveals that his former girlfriend Chelsy Davy once warned he could end up “just like” Prince Andrew, according to evidence from a journalist recalling a conversation in 2004.Plus, PR experts weigh in on whether Harry could face difficult questions about Andrew and the Jeffrey Epstein scandal during upcoming appearances, Conan O'Brien delivers a joke at the Oscars that many viewers interpreted as a reference to Andrew, and reports claim the prince has begun therapy while remaining largely out of public life under the King's watch.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

This Bible study, is a heartfelt teaching led by guest teacher Dave Bigler at Faith Chapel Corinth. Dave begins with a tribute to Pastor Russ Melville, who is recovering from a serious car accident, explaining that he is glad to be part of Renewal Prayer Network and it's support of the congregation during this time. Using a relatable analogy of struggling to keep a fire lit with wet logs, Bigler illustrates the spiritual danger of isolation. He explains that just as logs burn brighter when pushed together, Christians are empowered and "kindled" when they gather in authentic community rather than trying to sustain their faith alone.The core of the teaching focuses on Hebrews 10:19-25, where Dave explores the profound access believers now have to God through the sacrifice of Jesus. He breaks down the significance of the torn veil in the temple, symbolizing that the "Holy of Holies" is no longer off-limits to the people of GOd. By examining the roles of Jesus as our High Priest and the necessity of a "cleansed conscience," Dave exhorts the congregation to hold fast to their hope without wavering. The study concludes with a call to active exhortation—lovingly urging one another toward good works and maintaining the habit of meeting together as the "day of the Lord" approaches.OUTLINE0:00 – Introduction & Update on Pastor Russ Melville3:46 – Opening Prayer4:18 – The Fire Analogy: The danger of isolation and "wet wood"9:15 – Scriptural Foundation: Hebrews 10:19-2510:35 – The New and Living Way: Access to the Holy of Holies (Matthew 27.50-51, Hebrews 9.12, 1 John 4.10, Ephesians 2.18)14:52 – Our Great High Priest: The Order of Melchizedek (Genesis 14.18-20)16:08 – Drawing Near: Cleansing the guilty conscience (Psalm 103.12)18:48 – Holding Fast: Confessing our hope in Christ (John 1.29, Philippians 1.6)21:03 – Stirring Up the Flame: The call to exhortation and assembly23:14 – Grace and Sanctification: Go and sin no more (John 8.10-11)24:45 – Conclusion & Closing Prayer21:03 – Hebrews 10.24: Stirring up (kindling) love and good works22:20 – Hebrews 10.25: Not forsaking the assembly of the believers (John 8.10-11)24:45 – Conclusion: Sanctification and collective fire25:52 – Closing Prayer and call to ministrySupport Iron Sheep Ministries: https://Ironsheep.org/donateListen to the podcast: https://anchor.fm/ironsheepContact Dave & the ISM team: info@ironsheep.orgJoin the email list: http://eepurl.com/g-2zAD
Empowering Professionals and Corporate Culture Through Nonprofit Board Service: Insights from Whitley RichardsIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Whitley Richards, the CEO of Cause Strategy Partners, to explore the high-impact intersection of corporate talent and social good. Their conversation highlights how nonprofit board service is no longer just an act of charity; it is a strategic vehicle for leadership development and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Whitley explains how her organization bridges the gap between major corporations and the nonprofit sector, ensuring that professionals from companies like Google and JPMorgan Chase are not only placed on boards but are equipped with the governance training necessary to drive real systemic change.The Strategic Triple Win: Professionals, Companies, and CommunitiesFacilitating nonprofit board service creates a powerful synergy that addresses the most pressing pain points for modern business leaders: employee disengagement and the "skills gap." When a company encourages its rising talent to serve on a board, it is essentially outsourcing high-level leadership training to the real world. In the boardroom, professionals must navigate complex challenges such as financial oversight, strategic planning, and consensus-building among diverse stakeholders—all of which are "power skills" that translate directly back to their corporate roles. This hands-on experience often proves more effective than traditional classroom-style leadership retreats, as it places the individual in a position of high-stakes accountability for a cause they genuinely care about.From a corporate perspective, supporting board service is a robust retention tool that satisfies the modern worker's hunger for purpose. Employees who feel their personal values align with their professional environment are significantly more likely to remain loyal and engaged. Furthermore, these placements act as a force multiplier for a company's corporate citizenship. Instead of merely writing a check, a corporation is lending its intellectual capital to the community, building deeper, more authentic ties with local organizations. This proactive approach to corporate citizenship bolsters brand reputation and establishes the company as a pillar of the community, which is increasingly vital in a consumer landscape that rewards social transparency and impact.For the nonprofits involved, the influx of corporate expertise provides a level of professionalization and strategic rigor that can be difficult to acquire otherwise. Cause Strategy Partners uses a technology-driven approach to ensure these matches are based on more than just proximity; they are based on a deep alignment of skills and passion. This ensures that the professional isn't just a figurehead but a high-value contributor who can help the nonprofit navigate resource allocation and organizational direction. By shifting the narrative from "volunteering" to "strategic board service," Whitley and her team are redefining how we think about social impact, creating a sustainable model where every participant walks away with measurable growth and a renewed sense of mission.About Whitley RichardsWhitley Richards is the CEO of Cause Strategy Partners and a recognized leader in the social impact space. With an MPA from NYU Wagner, she has dedicated her career to the belief that the private sector holds the keys to solving many of the world's most difficult social challenges. She oversees the strategic direction of the firm, focusing on expanding the reach of their board placement and governance training programs to empower the next generation of social-impact leaders.About Cause Strategy PartnersCause Strategy Partners is a social enterprise that helps individuals and corporations achieve their greatest social impact. Through their flagship BoardLead program and a suite of governance resources, they match talented professionals with nonprofit board opportunities. By providing rigorous training and technology-powered matching, the firm ensures that nonprofit boards are diverse, skilled, and prepared to lead their organizations toward long-term success.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeCause Strategy Partners Official WebsiteWhitley Richards on LinkedInKey Episode HighlightsThe "Triple Win" Framework: How board service simultaneously benefits the professional, the corporation, and the nonprofit partner.Governance as Leadership Training: Why the boardroom is the ultimate environment for developing emotional intelligence and strategic thinking.Bridging the Purpose Gap: Strategies for companies to retain top talent by facilitating meaningful social engagement.Technology in Placements: The role of data-driven matching in ensuring that board service is high-impact rather than just high-intent.The "My Cause Finder" Tool: A practical resource for individuals to identify where their skills meet the world's needs.ConclusionThe conversation with Whitley Richards underscores that nonprofit board service is a transformative opportunity for professional and organizational growth. By aligning personal passions with strategic service, individuals can develop critical leadership skills while corporations strengthen their culture and community impact.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Duck season may be in the rearview and the clocks may have sprung forward, but the forces shaping future seasons are anything but quiet. From a struggling farm economy and tensions abroad to legislation on Capitol Hill and some thorny cultural conversations closer to home, there's plenty happening that could ripple through the waterfowl world. The guys unpack it all, and with the recent passing of Cason's father-in-law, he reflects on the deeper connections duck hunting can forge between generations, family, and the memories that last long after the season ends.>>>Thanks to our sponsors: Tom Beckbe, Lile Real Estate, Perfect Limit Outdoors, Purina Pro Plan, Sitka Gear, Greenhead: The Arkansas Duck Hunting Magazine, Noah Perry-Raymond James, The Waterfowl Management Academy, Create the X, and Ducks Unlimited.Send a textAll Rights Reserved.

After getting his start in park operations and park services at Michigan's Adventure, Mark moved into sales and marketing roles at Zamperla and Ride Entertainment, including leading the SkyCoaster division. In 2020, he joined 3dxScenic in the Cincinnati area, and in December 2023 he became co-owner alongside longtime team member Matt Waldenmeyer. Today, 3dxScenic designs and fabricates themed environments, signage, facades, parade floats, and iconic photo-op pieces for parks and attractions. In this interview, Mark talks about integrity, transparency, and collaboration, stirring imagination, and being an operations nerd. Integrity, transparency, and collaboration “We have three pillars that we believe 150% in. Those are collaboration, integrity, and transparency.” Mark frames these as more than values on a wall. They shape how 3dxScenic sells, scopes, schedules, and delivers work. He explains that integrity and transparency mean being upfront about what's possible, what will be subcontracted, and what the realistic timeline and bandwidth look like, with a focus on avoiding surprises. Collaboration is the lever that makes the work better, whether it's aligning early on how a piece will live in the environment, or leaning on operators and mid-level leaders who will ultimately execute the day-to-day. He also emphasizes these pillars internally. From how ownership communicates with team members to how departments coordinate workflow, he sees consistency between culture and output as a requirement for sustainable growth and repeat partnerships. Stirring imagination “It's not always easy to sell abstract decor to someone that, say, is in finance.” Mark describes scenic work as an abstract product that often requires helping clients visualize ROI differently. A sculpture may not directly sell tickets, but it can become an iconic, repeatable photo moment that drives sharing, tradition, and brand memory. He points to examples like oversized entry pieces and themed elements that communicate what a park experience feels like before a guest ever rides anything. He also walks through how ideas become reality, using projects like Holiday World's Good Gravy as a case study in creative back-and-forth, story building, and delivering pieces that can even turn into merchandise. For Mark, the win is when theming supports the story, creates emotional connection, and provides both guest delight and practical marketing value. Being an operations nerd “I'm an operations nerd at heart.” Mark's early-career curiosity shows up in how he talks about labor, workflow, and execution. He credits his time in park services, ride ops, and other frontline roles with giving him empathy for how systems actually run, and why it matters to learn by doing. That mindset carries into fabrication, where one late step can cascade into multiple downstream delays. The “ops nerd” lens also shows up in the company's recent move into a new 30,000 square foot facility. Mark shares how they let departments help dictate the shop layout, aiming for smoother phase-to-phase movement, fewer bottlenecks, and better long-term scalability as they take on larger and more complex projects.

The second episode turns toward resilience—without pretending that the climate crisis is solved. At COP30, amid formal speeches and stalled negotiations, the episode highlights moments of disruption, protest, and lived wisdom, especially from Indigenous and local communities. Through stories of resilience, faith, lament, and embodied practices like confession and repentance, the episode asks what it means to say “we are the answer.” Rather than placing hope in global negotiations alone, it points listeners back to their own communities, churches, and daily practices as places where faithful climate action can begin. About the Series: This two-part series follows a group of Christians from around the world as they gather in Brazil for COP30, the United Nations climate summit. Rather than focusing on policy outcomes or political winners and losers, the series explores what kind of problem climate change really is—and what kind of response it demands. Through science, lived experience, and faith practices, the series asks how Christians might move beyond information and outrage toward resilience, responsibility, and faithful action in a warming world.

In recent years, Americans have faced a deluge of horrifying developments in politics and culture: stolen elections, fascist rallies, families torn apart and locked away. A common refrain erupts at each new atrocity: This isn't who we are. In American Rule, Jared Yates Sexton upends those convenient fictions by laying bare the foundational myths at the heart of our collective American imagination. From the very origins of this nation, Americans in power have abused and subjugated others; enabling that corruption are the many myths of American exceptionalism and steadfast values, which are fed to the public and repeated across generations. Working through each era of American growth and change, Sexton weaves together the origins and perpetuation of these narratives still in the public memory, and the acts we have chosen to forget. Stirring, deeply researched, and disturbingly familiar, American Rule is a call to examine our own misconceptions of what it means, and has always meant, to be an American. listen and subscribe to Jared's Podcast subscribe to his substack newsletter On YOUTUBE.com/StandUpWithPete ON SubstackStandUpWithPete Listen rate and review on Apple Podcasts Listen rate and review on Spotify Pete On Instagram Pete on Blue Sky Pete on Threads Pete on Tik Tok Pete on Twitter Pete Personal FB page Stand Up with Pete FB page
