He Must Increase: John 3:22–36In this episode of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore John 3:22–36, where John the Baptist humbly declares, “He must increase, but I must decrease.” As questions of comparison and influence arise, John's response reveals a powerful model of humility, joy, and surrender.Together, they unpack what it means to live a life that points to Jesus rather than elevates self, how identity is secured in Christ—not position—and why true joy is found in making much of Him. This passage invites us to examine our motives, release comparison, and embrace a faith that celebrates Christ's increase above all.____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Raised inside the Church of Immortal Consciousness and taken from his mother under the banner of “spiritual purpose,” Danny Rensch grew up in a world where channeling spirits and chasing chess mastery were intertwined. In this gripping conversation, the International Master and co-founder of Chess.com opens up about being groomed for greatness by a chess-obsessed cult leader, the trauma of spiritual manipulation, the collapse of the collective that shaped him, and the long road toward forgiveness and integration. Danny shares how chess became both his escape and his evolution — an unsolvable, unforgiving game that mirrors life itself — and how he helped lead the digital revolution that brought the royal game to over 200 million players worldwide. This is a raw, nuanced exploration of consciousness, power, resilience, and what it really means to reclaim your own narrative.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos' Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.chess.com/ Danny's incredible memoir “Dark Squares: How Chess Saved My Life”Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Swamiji narrates the divine story of King Bali, grandson of Prahlad, who rose to immense power and conquered the heavens. Though generous and devoted in spirit, Bali's pride led him to attempt the hundredth Ashwamedha Yajna to secure Indra's throne permanently.  Hearing the devatas' prayers, Lord Vishnu appeared as Vamana Avatar, a dwarf Brahmin, born to Aditi. At Bali's yajna, Vamana humbly asked for three steps of land. Despite his Guru Shukracharya's warning, Bali surrendered everything to the Lord, declaring that if God Himself desired all, it was his greatest fortune.  Vamana then expanded to cosmic form:  With the first step, He covered the Earth.  With the second step, He covered the heavens, piercing the universe and bringing forth the holy Ganga.  With no space left for the third step, Bali offered his own head in surrender.  The Lord placed His foot on Bali's head, granting him liberation and appointing Himself as Bali's eternal gatekeeper in Sutala.  Swamiji emphasizes that this story reveals the miracle of surrender: when one offers everything to God with faith, the Lord transforms apparent loss into the highest gain — eternal grace and union with Him.  About Swami Mukundananda:    Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best‑selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades.

What happens when a personal trainer loses the ability to walk and discovers a power she never knew existed? In episode 248 of Joy Found Here, Isabelle Daikeler shares how spending over a decade unable to move without pain after giving birth forced her into complete surrender. That breaking point became her awakening—when her body began moving on its own for three days, when channeling started, and when she discovered what she calls our "third limb": an aspect of ourselves we've all forgotten we have.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(04:59) From Skeptic to Healer(07:18) The Car Crash That Changed Everything(10:30) Discovering Adaptogenic Medicine(15:13) Giving Birth and Losing Mobility(17:10) The Prayer of Surrender(22:00) Three Days of Somatic Unwinding(24:30) Discovering the "Third Limb"(30:44) Living with Inner Guidance(34:08) Your Body's Ancestral Wisdom(39:37) Inside the Harmonic Egg(44:48) Why Knowing is FreedomAs the founder of Authenticity – The Malibu Sound & Light Healing Center, Isabelle Daikeler guides individuals toward inner alignment through intuitive channeling and the revolutionary Harmonic Egg chamber. Her journey into this work wasn't sought—it found her. After giving birth to her son seventeen years ago, she spent over a decade unable to walk, stripped of her identity as a strong, athletic personal trainer. Broken and surrendering in prayer on the floor of her Kauai home, her connection to divine guidance—what she calls her third "limb"—awakened through three days of involuntary somatic unwinding and the beginning of channeling. Her devastating loss became the doorway to a different kind of strength: one built from the inside out.In this episode, Isabelle shares why surrender is the most essential step in healing, how our bodies hold ancestral wisdom and current-life lessons in every moment, and why the negative emotions we resist are actually our greatest teachers. She introduces the Harmonic Egg—a sacred geometry chamber using personalized sound and light frequencies to reset the nervous system and shift us from reactive to responsive. Whether you've spent years searching for answers or you're carrying pain that won't let go, Isabelle's message is clear: the wisdom you need is already within you, accessible here and now, and knowing—truly knowing—is the gateway to freedom.Connect with Isabelle Daikeler:WebsiteInstagramFacebookLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Just give up! I know you hear this, and you think, “What?!” Surrender, give up control, let go of what you can't fix, what you can't change.

Welcome to Follow Your Gut. Daily Anchors.I'm Juniper, and I'll be guiding you in this daily embodiment practice for grounding, expansion, and self-leadership.Today's anchor is about trust and surrender. Because so often, what makes life feel heavy isn't what we're carrying. It's how tightly we're gripping it.This is true for healing, motherhood, marriage, growing a business and everything in between including becoming a new version of yourself.In all of these areas, our minds want to stay in control. It is so natural for us to try to micromanage, often times without even realizing it. We deeply analyze. We push so hard. All to make sure nothing goes wrong.But healing, growth, and alignment don't actually respond well to force.Now, as we come out of this practice, let's take just a minute to gently set our anchors for the day.Today, I commit to nourishing my body with microbiome friendly food and abundant water.Today, I choose to support my gut, mind, brain, nervous system, and liver with my rebalancing or maintenance supplements.Today, I trust that I am safe, and that everything is always working for me.And today, I will choose one small action that supports the life I am affirming.Let this practice orient your day and remind you that alignment is built through small, consistent choices. Let's take one slow breath here, and carry this with you. May your heart feel supported, your body feel safe, and your intuition lead your day.Trust your body. Follow your gut. Thanks for listening!

In this episode, I'm sharing five raw, honest lessons the Year of the Snake carved into me; lessons about identity, energy, surrender, and what it actually takes to evolve.We talk about:Why your old life will cost you your new oneWhy sometimes people would rather be ghosted than confrontedHow your energy is currency — and where you might be spending it unconsciouslyWhy you truly can't “f*ck it up” or get it wrongGate 28 in Human Design and the existential edge of meaningI also share reflections on current affairs (trigger warning included), the strange feeling of “getting in trouble” for speaking truth, and why deeply wounded people often need love the most.We explore how two things can be true at the same time, why the body is always the key, and how Human Design is woven into everything I do, not as a system, but as a lens for living.The ultimate lesson of this year?Surrender.This episode closes with my deeper mission, the origin story behind my Human Design reports, and an invitation to give yourself the one thing that changes everything:You.Support the show✨ Thank you for listening!

I'm back — and January was a wild one. In this episode of Operation Be, I'm sharing what really happened behind the scenes: my mom's knee replacement, getting Influenza A, both of my parents becoming seriously ill, hospital stays, rehab, endless tests, and navigating the stress of healthcare and family updates — all while running three companies. But this isn't just about what happened. It's about what it revealed. Years ago, this level of uncertainty would have sent me into panic, overwork, and burnout. This time, I practiced presence. I triaged what mattered. I listened to my body. I allowed emotions without spiraling. We talk about nervous system regulation in real time, breaking old hypervigilant patterns, and how growth is revealed in chaos — not comfort. If you're navigating stress, caregiving, or uncertainty, this conversation will meet you where you are.

n this deeply moving episode of Prayer on the Air, we enter sacred territory: motherhood, mental health, shame, boundaries, and surrender.Two courageous mothers open their hearts and speak vulnerably about walking alongside sons who are struggling. They name what so many carry silently — the embarrassment, the fear, the self-blame, the exhaustion of codependency, and the crushing weight of “personal responsibility.”Together, we explore:The cultural burden placed on mothersThe difference between codependency and interdependenceWhy suffering is not failureWhat it means to trust that “the way knows the way”How letting go may actually be loveThe courage to follow your bliss, even in hard seasonsWe reflect on the Year of the Fire Horse — a symbol of momentum, courage, and new beginnings — and what it means to move forward not from fear, but from surrender.This episode is a gentle but powerful invitation to:Release the belief that you are your child's sourceLet yourself off the hookAllow sadness without resistanceTrust the deeper wisdom unfolding beneath what appears broken“Put God on the hook. Let yourself off the hook.”If you are a mother navigating boundaries, a parent walking through mental health challenges, or anyone carrying shame about something you cannot fix — this prayer circle is for you.You are not alone.There are no winners and losers in prayer.And what appears as a fall from grace may actually be a falling into grace.Amen.

Emotional suppression doesn't just silence feelings — it shapes identity, erodes self-trust, and quietly disconnects us from who we really are.In this deeply grounding conversation, Kute Blackson joins Oliver to explore emotional healing, authenticity, self-expression, and the long-term impact of suppressing emotions. They examine why so many people learn to hide their feelings, how fear and self-judgment create emotional disconnection, and why awareness is the gateway back to clarity, confidence, and inner truth.The conversation moves into presence as emotional safety, authenticity as a lived practice, and healing as the willingness to feel rather than avoid. This episode offers clear insight for anyone ready to stop performing, reconnect with their inner truth, and live with emotional alignment and integrity.This episode is for anyone navigating emotional healing, self-discovery, authenticity, and personal alignment — especially if you feel disconnected from your emotions or tired of holding parts of yourself back.About Kute BlacksonKute Blackson is a transformational teacher, speaker, and author known globally for his work on surrender, emotional healing, and authentic living.

I went on the Kairos retreat with ~90 of my classmates at Seattle Prep.Kairos is one of those things where if you know... you know. It was four days of stillness, honesty, and sitting with questions I usually outrun.I opened up about struggles I tend to keep buried.About control. Fear. Trust. Surrender.What I felt most was the power of being known.The power of community.The power of love.The power of grace.This episode is raw, real, and unfinished.Not answers.

In this episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, Ryan Kurczak sits down with Bryan Crigler for a grounded, wide-ranging conversation on what it actually looks like to build a mature Kriya Yoga practice over time. Bryan shares his winding spiritual path—from early curiosity, martial arts, pranayama, and psychedelic exploration, to discovering Kriya Yoga as a steady, embodied way of realization. Together, Ryan and Bryan explore how disciplined daily practice evolves into something natural and enjoyable, and how surrender, curiosity, and consistency shape long-term progress. Topics discussed in this episode include: Developing pranic sensitivity and body awareness through breath and attention The role of imagination in working skillfully with pranayama and subtle awareness Navigating plateaus, distractions, and shifting expectations in meditation The difference between peak experiences and stable inner development Psychedelics and spirituality, and why steady practice offers deeper integration How meditation naturally reshapes lifestyle choices, relationships, and habits Working with surrender vs. effort in advanced stages of practice The practical value of the yamas and niyamas beyond moral rules Creating less outer drama to support deeper inner stillness Throughout the conversation, Bryan reflects on how sustained practice gradually raises the baseline of awareness, allowing meditation to remain accessible even on difficult days. Ryan adds context from lineage teachings, emphasizing patience, embodiment, and fidelity to practice over chasing experiences. This episode is especially valuable for practitioners who are past the beginner phase and are learning how Kriya Yoga integrates into daily life, relationships, and long-term spiritual maturity.

How do we run our race with full surrender to Christ? Eric Liddell's life answers this question and many more with quiet strength and unwavering faith. Known for refusing to run on a Sunday at the 1924 Olympics, Eric honored God's law above worldly praise, trusting Christ by his obedience. His gold medal in the 400m became a testimony to God's faithfulness. But Eric's race didn't end on the track—he gave his life as a missionary in China, serving others with humility and joy until his final breath. His last words, “It's full surrender,” remind us that true greatness is found in yielding wholly to Jesus. Let us run our race likewise—looking unto Him (Hebrews 12:1–2).

Send a textHow do you guard your heart without turning intimacy into something tense, controlled, or exhausting?In this episode, Chelsey clarifies a critical distinction many Christian wives miss: biblical guarding is not the same as control. While Scripture calls us to guard against the flesh, the world, and the enemy, guarding was never meant to replace trust in God—or become a form of fear-based management.This episode teaches how to protect intimacy from a place of authority, peace, and right order—without hyper-vigilance, micromanaging, or emotional exhaustion.Inside this episode:The difference between guarding and controllingWhy fear-based vigilance damages intimacyHow heart posture determines whether guarding brings peace or pressureWhat biblical stewardship actually looks like in marriageHow to protect intimacy without becoming the Holy SpiritIf guarding your heart has started to feel heavy, anxious, or exhausting—this episode will reset your framework and restore peace.

If this episode stirred something deeper and you're ready to move from insight into surrender, I created a short guided experience called From Awareness to Surrender. This mini course includes three short teachings, a guided exercise, and a prayer recorded over you to help you stop cycling and start responding differently—rooted in surrender, not striving.

Joy doesn't come from holding everything together. It comes from finally letting go.In this honest and grace-filled conversation, Brayden Brewer shares how surrender—often forged through pain—became the turning point of her story. Through betrayal, illness, broken relationships, and seasons of deep loss, God patiently revealed that true joy isn't found in control, success, or survival, but in trusting Him completely.Rooted in Psalm 16, this episode invites you to discover the freedom and peace that follow wholehearted surrender. You'll be encouraged to release what you've been clinging to, lay down false sources of security, and experience the steady joy that comes when God alone becomes your portion.If you're exhausted from striving or carrying more than you were meant to hold, this story will remind you that surrender is not the end—it's the beginning of joy. And the God who meets you there is still writing something beautiful with your life.

Lent can feel overwhelming—but it can also be transformative. Pat and Kenna Millea share how Crux: A Lenten Journey of Surrender helps grow closer to God through prayer, Scripture, fasting and discipline, even in busy lives. Then, researcher Sarah Kostick explores how wonder, humility and trust in God shape both scientific discovery and everyday life.Like what you're hearing?

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman continue Abraham's story in Genesis 18–23 and watch the promises of God begin to unfold in real and messy ways. From radical hospitality to wilderness rescues, these chapters reveal a God who shows up, pursues, and provides. The lesson begins with Abraham running to welcome divine visitors on an ordinary afternoon, reminding us that the Lord appears in everyday moments and that we choose how fully we invite Him in. Placed beside it is Lot's story, where lingering and looking back contrast with Abraham's trust. Yet even there, the rescue continues. In houses of sin and cities on the brink, God still calls, “Escape,” revealing a heart determined to save. Genesis 21 and 22 then place two powerful stories side by side. In the wilderness, Hagar discovers the God who sees and provides a well where she least expects it. On Mount Moriah, Abraham and Isaac walk together toward a sacrifice, and the Lord provides a ram, foreshadowing the Lamb who would come later. In both stories, we see the same truth: whether in personal wilderness or eternal need, Jehovah Jireh is the God who provides. These chapters invite us to remember the mountains in our own lives where the Lord has seen us and supplied what we needed. He is the God who comes unto us, who rescues, and who provides, again and again.

2.15.2026 - Spiritual Tools for Spiritual Transformation - Surrender - James 4:7 by Anacostia River Church

In this return conversation, Mark Gober opens up about one of the most intense and transformative experiences of his life: a guided ibogaine journey that forced him into direct confrontation with the roots of identity, self-judgment, and inherited fear. What unfolds is not psychedelic glamour or mystical escapism, but a brutal, compassionate reckoning with the architecture of the psyche — from parts work and suppressed rage to ancestral trauma and the meaning of real self-love. Mark describes communing with an intelligence that seemed to know him better than he knew himself, dismantling old narratives while demanding embodiment, responsibility, and integration. This is a raw exploration of what happens when insight becomes unavoidable, when healing moves through the body, and when love arrives in the form of truth.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos' Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.markgober.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

In Gospel of Mark chapter 11, we encounter a King who refuses to fit our expectations. As Jesus rides into Jerusalem to shouts of “Hosanna,” the crowd waves palms and projects their hopes of political victory onto Him. But this is no campaign rally—this is a confrontation. From the fig tree with leaves but no fruit, to the temple full of activity but empty of prayer, Jesus exposes a surface-level faith that looks alive from a distance yet withers up close. The message is clear: religion without repentance is nothing but leaves. Trusting Jesus isn't meant to fit neatly into our routines, playlists, or Sunday schedules—it's meant to overturn tables in our hearts and transform us from the inside out. In this powerful teaching, we're reminded that what isn't rooted in Christ will ultimately wither away. Jesus invites us beyond performative faith into a life marked by real fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Prayer isn't about bending God to our will; it's about aligning our hearts with His. Mountains move not because we name and claim, but because we trust and surrender. The question before us is simple but searching: are we asking Jesus to fit our lives, or are we surrendering to let Him change them? May our faith be more than leaves. May it bear fruit that lasts.

SURRENDER MONKEY STARMER? ON EU, BORDERS, CHINA 15 U-TURNS  #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #Live #Starmer #SurrenderMonkey #UKPolitics #Labour #EU #BorderCrisis #ChinaEmbassy #ChagosIslands  What's a surrender monkey? It's a political coward. A leader who talks tough, waves the flag, then folds at the first sign of pressure. Someone who gives ground, again and again, while pretending it's all part of a "reset". And that, folks, is exactly what Keir Starmer has become.  The latest big relaunch, reboot, reinvention — call it what you like — is just another desperate attempt by Starmer to reinvent himself again. New suit, new slogan, same weak leader. He doesn't need re-booting. He needs booting out.  Starmer said he wouldn't crawl back to the EU — now he's doing just that. He talked tough on border security — now it looks like he's simply given up. He's capitulated to China over the super-embassy. He's rolled over on the Chagos Islands. Yet somehow, with a straight face, he tells us Britain must be "war-ready" for Russia. You couldn't make it up.  This is not a fighter. This is a man in managed retreat — surrendering abroad, wobbling at home, and presiding over 15 policy U-turns that expose a government with no core beliefs and no backbone. A lame-duck premiership is unfolding before our eyes.  Every day he clings on, the country is dragged further down with him. Starmer should do the decent thing: admit defeat and go now, instead of letting this sorry farce grind on. That's the verdict — Jon Gaunt says it as it is.  #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #Live #KeirStarmer #Starmer #SurrenderMonkey #UKPolitics #Labour #LabourGovernment #Uturns #EU #Borders #BorderCrisis #China #ChinaEmbassy #ChagosIslands #Russia #WarReady #LameDuckPM #PoliticalCrisis #Britain  Jon Gaunt, Jon Gaunt TV, live, Keir Starmer, Starmer, surrender monkey, UK politics, Labour, Labour government, policy u-turns, EU, borders, border security, China, China super embassy, Chagos Islands, Russia, war ready, lame duck prime minister, political crisis, Britain This is political blogging and hard-hitting social commentary from Triple Sony Gold Award-winning talk radio legend, Jon Gaunt — former host on BBC, Talk Radio, and Sky News.

In this “In Brief” section of the Catechism, we review that only God has the power to create, that is, to call into existence something from nothing. God made man and the entire universe as a manifestation of his love, and he keeps the world and all of us in existence by his will. Fr. Mike discusses one of the greatest mysteries of our faith: God bringing good out of evil. He says we won't fully understand this mystery until we are united with God in heaven. In a broken world, we are called to trust in the goodness of God. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 315-324. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.
