Yes, there is good in all of us. But that doesn't mean you should ignore red flags in a relationship because you want to see the good in people. And it certainly doesn't mean it's your job to make those red flags go away; to shine that diamond in the rough! When you tell yourself what an amazing person you are for seeing the good in someone, that's your ego talking. It's the false part of yourself seeing the false part of others. And it's totally rooted in insecure attachment. Emotionally healthy people don't sacrifice their own wellbeing for others. When you believe this martyr story and ignore or excuse red flags, you sell yourself short. You do NOT deserve a “broken” person who needs rescuing. That road leads to unhappiness because it's an impossible journey, and you'll never find what you're looking for. Focusing on the other person means you're avoiding yourself. In today's podcast we'll explore this story we tend to create, and how to change it. Ignoring red flags doesn't make you noble. Let's dispel that belief so you can shift to the real work: the work that begins with you. WISDOM NUGGET (#wisdomnugget) You are your own red flag. Surrender to reality, stop the story and be that hero for yourself.
Send me a Text Message!In this episode, Mike gets brutally honest about the current season of life and business — and what it feels like when things aren't clicking like they used to. With vulnerable reflection and zero ego protection, he shares how embarrassment surfaced, what it revealed about identity, and why surrendering to reality is the path to true peace. If you've ever been caught between who you thought you were and what life is actually showing you… this one's for you.Key TakeawaysTeach From Messiness, Not Mastery Real leadership is built in honesty. Vulnerability liberates the teacher and the listener.Embarrassment Is a Signal — Not a Shame When you feel embarrassment, it's pointing to a false identity you've been clinging to.Identity Is Not Reality Building a self-concept around outcomes is a trap — especially when those outcomes change.There Is No Winning a War With the Present Moment Resistance creates suffering. Surrender creates peace, joy, and integrity.You Don't Need It to Be Bigger — You Need It to Be Real The soul doesn't want quantity. It wants honesty, alignment, and service.Notable Quotes“You know, I like to say that I teach from messiness, not mastery.”“Embarrassment is this disconnect between your reality and your identity.”“In a battle between identity and reality, we can either keep doubling and tripling down on trying to make reality look like this identity we've built… or we get to let go of the identity.”“There's a saying that a truly humble human being cannot be embarrassed.”“Please understand, at this point, I don't have everything figured out — and that's why I teach from messiness and not mastery.”Call to Action

Most of us want to “move on” or “let go,” but we skip the one phase that makes surrender possible. In this episode, I sit down with transformational teacher and bestselling author Kute Blackson to break down what surrender really means and why it's the opposite of weakness. We talk about how to let go without giving up, recognize the ego's survival patterns that keep you in control mode, and the step-by-step “anatomy of surrender” process. Tune in and discover the practices that will help you release control, grieve what's past, and open yourself to bigger opportunities and a life that feels more aligned and alive. In This Episode, You Will Learn Why SURRENDER is not weakness but the PASSWORD to FREEDOM. Why GRIEVING is the missing step before surrender can happen. How CONTROL is the ego's master addiction and keeps you stuck. How to tell yourself the TRUTH and stop negotiating your life away. Why PAIN is feedback that you're out of alignment. Ways to ALIGN with your soul's deeper vision and act from authenticity. Why LETTING GO of what's not for you creates space for greater blessings.

Warning: this episode may contain MIND-BLOWING moments. Stephen Gross is a practising psychoanalyst and a personal hero of mine. He has worked with patients for more than 45 years and his first book, The Examined Life, drew on these experiences. When it was published in 2013, it caused a sensation and went straight to number one in the Sunday Times bestseller list. Since then, hundreds of thousands of readers, including me, have taken it to our hearts. Now 12 years on from his debut, Grosz is back with Love's Labor, which asks fundamental questions around how to love and be loved in return, drawing on his almost half a century of clinical expertise. In this episode we discuss why real love causes suffering, why failed marriages are often the best kind, the difference between surrender and submission in relationships, why loss has to be part of being human and how we can be happy. Plus: a fascinating peek into what it's like to be a psychoanalyst when I get to ask ‘are you ever annoyed by your clients?' ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 02:28 Understanding Attachment to Suffering 04:25 The Role of Denial in Our Lives 06:32 Failures and Self-Perception 07:23 Stephen's Childhood 21:46 The Power of Unconscious Signals 25:24 Navigating Change and Loss 26:25 The Anxiety of Letting Go 28:22 The Price of Love 29:23 Writing from the Heart 30:16 Support Systems 32:27 Family Dynamics and Psychoanalysis 36:51 Surrender vs. Submission 45:25 Understanding Pain and Grief 48:25 Final Thoughts and Farewell

This week's episode is coming to you straight from the hospital with my child. The sound might be different, but the message is the same: God is faithful—even here.In today's short reflection, I share how quickly life shifted for our family, what God has been doing in the middle of the chaos, and how faith deepens in hard seasons of motherhood. You'll hear real stories of His provision—moved appointments, kind helpers, even hospital laundry—and the reminder that trusting God during hardship and surrendering control are powerful ways to find peace in chaos.If you've been walking a hallway of your own—whether it's fear, waiting, or uncertainty—this short encouragement for overwhelmed moms will help you pause, breathe, and remember that God's goodness and faithfulness are steady, even when life feels unpredictable.

Think about a goal you have accomplished. When you first set yourself on the path towards that end, you were committing to a new way of life until it was completed. Along the way, you became a new sort of person. God uses these seasons of effort to transform us. In Acts 9:1-19, God calls Saul and Ananias into something new. There would be beauty for them in the end, but the process took effort, surrender, and cost.

A resounding truth from Ecclesiastes is that humanity has little control over what happens in our lives "under the sun." As we approach the end of this study, the Preacher/Teacher reminds us that there is freedom when we surrender our efforts to hold on to this world and trust the God who is at work.
Message by Chris Brown on October 4, 2025. Have you ever wondered if everyone who calls themselves a Christian is really a Christian? Or wondered if there are actually qualifications needed to be a Christian? Did Jesus ever define for us what it meant to follow Him? This message not only answers all these questions but also gives us step-by-step tools to make sure that we are truly followers of Jesus.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this October 3rd episode, join your host Hunter as we journey together through Day 277 of our year-long exploration of scripture. Today, we'll open the pages of Ezra chapters 5 and 6, where we witness the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem and God's faithfulness to His people. We'll pause with David in Psalm 138 to reflect on gratitude and God's loving kindness. Then, we'll dive into Luke 16, where Jesus shares parables about stewardship, faithfulness, and the powerful story of the rich man and Lazarus—a timely reminder about the true riches found in God, not in material wealth. Along the way, Hunter offers reflections on heart posture, spiritual blindness, and the gift of being “named” and known by God. He closes with heartfelt prayers and practical encouragement to care for both body and soul, reminding us all that as we seek God together—no matter where we are in the world—we are deeply loved.

Inspired by the voices of prophets like Haggai and Zechariah, who urged the people to rebuild in the name of their God, Hunter joined Zerubbabel and Jeshua in rekindling the effort to reconstruct the Temple. Their work soon attracted attention from the authorities: Tataniah, the governor west of the Euphrates, accompanied by his associates, challenged the project, demanding to know who had authorized the reconstruction. Despite the obstacles and scrutiny, Hunter and his companions persevered, guided by faith and the encouragement of the prophets—striving to restore both their temple and their community spirit. Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this October 3rd episode, join your host Hunter as we journey together through Day 277 of our year-long exploration of scripture. Today, we'll open the pages of Ezra chapters 5 and 6, where we witness the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem and God's faithfulness to His people. We'll pause with David in Psalm 138 to reflect on gratitude and God's loving kindness. Then, we'll dive into Luke 16, where Jesus shares parables about stewardship, faithfulness, and the powerful story of the rich man and Lazarus—a timely reminder about the true riches found in God, not in material wealth. Along the way, Hunter offers reflections on heart posture, spiritual blindness, and the gift of being “named” and known by God. He closes with heartfelt prayers and practical encouragement to care for both body and soul, reminding us all that as we seek God together—no matter where we are in the world—we are deeply loved. So, grab your Bible, settle in, and let's walk this path of faith together today. Absolutely! Here are 10 thoughtful discussion questions based on the October 3rd, 2025 episode of the Daily Radio Bible: Reflecting on Ezra 5-6, what stood out to you about the rebuilding of the Temple and the challenges the Jews faced? How did God's intervention influence the outcome? In Psalm 138, David expresses deep gratitude and trust in God's faithfulness. Are there recent moments in your life where you experienced God's faithfulness in a personal way? In Luke 16, Jesus shares the parable of the shrewd manager. What lessons do you think Jesus wanted us to learn about stewardship, honesty, and the use of worldly resources? The story of the rich man and Lazarus highlights issues of wealth, privilege, and compassion. How do you see these themes playing out in your own life or in your community? Hunter discusses being blinded by riches and what it means to ‘forget your name.' In practical terms, what are ways we can guard our hearts against spiritual blindness or self-centeredness? What role do faith and trust play in our interactions with others, especially those in need, as reflected in the teachings of this episode? The episode highlights “the named ones”—those remembered in scripture for their faith. Who are the ‘named ones' in your own spiritual journey that inspire you? Hunter encourages listeners to take care of both body and soul. How do you balance spiritual and physical well-being in your daily life? Prayer is central to this episode. How has prayer—either through traditional prayers like the Lord's Prayer, or your own spontaneous prayers—shaped your relationship with God? The episode ends with the reminder that ‘you are loved.' How does knowing and internalizing God's love change the way you approach daily challenges and relationships? Feel free to use these questions for personal reflection or group discussion! Certainly!

Emphasizes the goal: to let the Bible guide towards the Living Word, Jesus. 2.

Reflection and Commentary on the Readings Focus on the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. Contrast between the nameless rich man (representing spiritual blindness) and Lazarus (a named, faithful individual). Warning about the hardening of heart due to wealth and reliance on status.

Invitation to return for the next podcast episode and a reminder of God's love for each listener. This episode weaves together Scripture reading, reflection, prayer, and practical life encouragement, offering both spiritual insight and daily life application for listeners. Today we dove deep into the wisdom of Ezra, Psalms, and Luke, exploring how faith, gratitude, and humility can transform both our personal and professional lives. We learned that true success isn't measured by wealth or status, but by the richness of our soul and our generosity toward others. Remember: Invest in what truly matters—your character, your purpose, and your impact on those around you. Let every day be an opportunity to build lasting value, both in business and in life. Absolutely! Here's a LinkedIn post inspired by the October 3rd, 2025 episode of the Daily Radio Bible podcast: On today's episode of the Daily Radio Bible, I was reminded of the power of faith, perspective, and gratitude. Hunter took us through passages from Ezra, Psalms, and Luke—forming a moving meditation on humility, spiritual focus, and the value of small, daily investments in our souls. Here are three key takeaways that resonated with me: Guard against the blindness of privilege: The story of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16) serves as a reminder not to let wealth or comfort blind us to our own need for God or the needs of others. Faithfulness in little things matters: Whether it's tending to the tasks at hand, caring for your health, or nurturing your relationships—Hunter encourages us to value the daily “little things” that shape our character. Invest in what truly pays off: As Hunter beautifully put it, spending time listening, reflecting, and drawing near to God is an investment that yields lifelong dividends, unlike many of the distractions that vie for our attention. Let's prioritize what's truly valuable—both in our spiritual journeys and our day-to-day routines. Have you made time lately for what matters most? #DailyRadioBible #Faith #PersonalGrowth #SpiritualWellness #Gratitude Subject: Feasting with the Named Ones – DRB Newsletter for October 3, 2025 Dear DRB Family, Grace and peace to you on this beautiful October day! As always, thank you for joining us on our daily journey through the Bible. Our latest episode, "October 3rd, 2025," is now available, and we're so glad you could share in this time around the warmth of God's love. Today's Readings: Ezra 5-6 Psalm 138 Luke 16 Highlights from This Episode In today's reading, we revisited the incredible story of how faith, perseverance, and God's providence enabled the Israelites to rebuild the temple amidst opposition. As we learned from Ezra, even earthly kings like Cyrus and Darius can become surprising instruments in God's redemption story. Psalm 138 reminded us of God's constant faithfulness, while in Luke 16, Jesus offered the stirring parable of the rich man and Lazarus. A Reflection on Names, Riches, and Faith Host Hunter shared a poignant meditation on the difference between the “named ones” and the nameless in Jesus's story. While the rich man in the parable was left without a name—lost in his riches and blind to his need for God—Lazarus was named, honored, and welcomed at Abraham's side. The reminder for us: our trust belongs not in wealth or reputation, but in the God who raises the humble and knows us by name. Let us nurture hearts that recognize our need for God and rejoice in the gifts—both earthly and eternal—that He freely gives. Daily Encouragement Hunter also encouraged us to move our bodies in gratitude for the life we have, just as we invest time nourishing our souls with Scripture. Whether it's a walk outdoors, a gentle stretch, or simply deep breaths of fresh air, these moments can remind us of God's presence. Let's Pray Together As always, this episode closed with heartfelt prayers of thanksgiving, intercession, and the Lord's Prayer—rooting us in God's goodness and mercy each new day. Action Steps: Take some time today to move your body and thank God for the life and breath you've been given. Reflect on the ways God has named and loved you, regardless of your circumstances. Invite someone to listen to today's episode and join our community of daily Bible readers. Thank you for investing these precious moments into your soul. Until next time, remember: you are loved. In His love, The Daily Radio Bible Team P.S. Have feedback or a prayer request? We'd love to hear from you—just reply to this email!

“To will is human, but to surrender is divine.” - Guy Finley So much of our suffering comes when life does not go our way. Traffic makes us late, meetings unfold differently than expected, or loved ones face challenges we cannot control. In this episode of 10 Minutes to Less Suffering, you will learn how our will can equal pain, how uncertainty can become an ally instead of an enemy, and how pure surrender eases stress and creates space for renewal. These practices show us how to meet everyday struggles with less resistance and more peace. Affirmation Poem: When my will demands what life does not give, I meet the birthplace of pain. I breathe, I soften, I release. Uncertainty is not my enemy. It carries hope, renewal, and possibility. In the unknown, I am free. Surrender is not giving up. It is giving over. It is opening to life itself, allowing it to reshape me, polish me, make me whole again. Here I find less stress, less suffering, and the peace of flowing with what is.

Key Takeaways:True leadership often means loosening your grip. You cannot force outcomes, timelines, or people, but you can release and lead with trust. Surrender opens space for wisdom and growth.Surrender is not weakness but strength in disguise. Rest becomes a strategic act when we allow it to restore us. In slowing down, we sharpen clarity and courage.Perfection and rigid plans weigh leaders down. Balance is found in the natural rhythm of effort and rest. Honoring both flow and pause leads to sustainable impact.Leadership is not a solo journey but a shared one. Trusting your team and support network empowers them to rise higher. In giving space, you multiply strength together. “Surrender isn't weakness. It's wisdom. Choosing rest is a strategic decision.” “Let go of perfection and timelines. Whatever you missed happened anyway. It's all okay, nothing's going to pass you by.” “Balance comes from rhythm, not rigidity. Leadership is expansion and contraction. Go with the flow… honoring the rest as much as the pushes, honoring the ebb and the flow.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

In this week's episode, we dig into the paradox at the heart of the spiritual path: how to surrender to life's unfolding while still staying fiercely committed to your dreams.This conversation was sparked by a listener question that felt so alive for both of us right now:"Hello universe. I keep circling around the same dilemma. How do I balance surrender with my own will and desires? I have clear dreams for my life and business, and I feel called to pursue them, but how do I know when I'm gripping too tightly in control versus when I'm actually being asked to stay committed and persevered despite the obstacles? Sometimes devotion and discipline feel like the opposite of surrender. How do I weave them together? Signed God, take the wheel, but not my dreams."We get real about:The subtle difference between devotion and self-abandonmentWhy “should” is almost always a red flag that you're forcingLearning to trust life moment by moment (even when things fall apart)How attachment to a specific outcome often masks the deeper desire underneathFinding the wisdom inside the “gripping” without bypassing or bulldozing over itAlong the way, you'll hear stories about our own messy edges with business, health, parenting, and money—and how the practice of surrender meets the daily reality of deadlines, big goals, and longing for stability.✨ If you've ever wondered how to trust life without losing sight of your dreams, this episode is for you.A Gentle & Fierce Path Forward: A Workbook for Staying Present, Committed and Resourced in Times of Crisishttps://portal.kyleycaldwell.com/gentle-fierce-workbookEvaSign up for Awakening for FREEhttps://dogged-trailblazer-8821.kit.com/756fe8553dEva's instagram: @iamevaliaoBook a discovery call with EvaKyleySign up for upcoming FREE Workshop - Torchbearer: Build a Business That Builds a Better World https://portal.kyleycaldwell.com/torchbearer-workshopKyley's Instagram: @kyleycaldwellKyley's free mini-course

Out of all the prayers we pray, there is one prayer that is more difficult than all the others. It is the prayer of surrender. The prayer of submission to God is harder than all other prayers. It requires great trust in God. It demands a letting go of our control. It's releasing the situation in God's hands and trusting Him to meet the need as He sees best.Main Points:1. The reason this prayer is more difficult is because we like control, or at least the illusion of control. If I sincerely pray for God's will to be done, I have to allow for God's will to be done. 2. While the prayer of surrender is often the hardest prayer we pray, it is the most rewarding. God rewards those who submit to his will.3. Let us pray along with our Savior, “Father, not my will, but your will be done.” Let's be willing to pray this most difficult prayer of surrender, acknowledging that God knows what Today's Scripture Verses:Matthew 6:10 - “…your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”Matthew 26:39 - “not my will but your will be done.”Hebrews 5:7 - “During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
