Pastor Dru Rodriguez highlights how anxious, racing thoughts can trap us in a mundane routine and points to humble obedience before God as the path to freedom, drawing from Peter's exhortation to cast all our worries on Him who cares for us.
When it comes to money, most people are searching for two things: security and peace of mind. That's understandable—life is unpredictable, expenses arise, and markets swing. But what if true peace isn't found in your circumstances at all?Financial wisdom doesn't start with a budget or a savings plan. It begins with trust—specifically, trusting in the Lord. Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.”If you chase peace through your paycheck or portfolio, you'll always come up short. But when Christ is your foundation, you begin to see money in a new light—not as a source of peace, but as a tool to steward.Five Secrets to Financial Wisdom from God's Word1. Know Who Owns It All. Psalm 24:1 says, “The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.” Everything belongs to God—your income, your retirement, even your ability to earn. That means we're not owners; we're stewards, entrusted with God's resources to manage faithfully.2. Spend With Purpose. Jesus asks in Luke 16:11, “If you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?” Spending should reflect God's priorities—giving, saving, living within your means, and investing in eternal impact.3. Avoid the Slavery of Debt. Proverbs 22:7 warns, “The borrower is slave to the lender.” Debt can limit your freedom to give and respond to God's calling. Wise stewards build margin and pursue freedom—not because debt is always wrong, but because freedom is better.4. Save With Perspective. Proverbs 21:20 says, “The wise store up choice food and olive oil, but fools gulp theirs down.” Saving isn't about hoarding; it's preparation for what God might have ahead. But remember: your security isn't in your savings—it's in the Savior.5. Give First, and Freely. 2 Corinthians 9:7 tells us, “God loves a cheerful giver.” Generosity reflects God's heart. It breaks the grip of greed and aligns us with His Kingdom. When we give, we declare, “God, I trust You more than I trust this money.”Anchored in ChristFollowing these biblical principles won't guarantee worldly success. Even the most faithful stewards face trials. But when your foundation is Christ, you're anchored. Isaiah 33:6 says, “He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge.”So if you're looking for security or peace, don't start with a spreadsheet—start with surrender. Financial wisdom begins when you recognize that your Provider is also your Redeemer. And in Him, you have more than enough.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My deceased friend's estate is in probate, and he owned an LLC registered in another state.

While they are away, please enjoy listening (or re-listening) to this previously released episode, and join us in continuing to pray for Fr. Mark-Mary, Fr. Innocent, Fr. Angelus, and Fr.

Thinking about helping out? You can give at https://spiritjuice.org/supportpoco. Thank you! --- “I haven't believed enough that he is enough.” That's what Br Angelo says as a guest on this episode, and how true is it for each of us? Even when we experience God's goodness, repeatedly and in big and small ways, it can be a struggle to keep believing that God is enough. He is LORD. He is enough, and we only have to give him permission to work. It sounds simple, but it can be tough when we've faced rejection in other areas of our lives. How do we believe? How do we find the courage and take the risk—to learn he always shows up? Surrender to the Lordship of Jesus. It can be a struggle, but while we might have many struggles, this is the right one.

Hey sister, This is Part 2 of our devotional series—and we're diving deeper into what it really means to pray for change. Not just surface-level fixes, but heart-level transformation. Because sometimes, it's not just the mess in your house—it's the clutter in your spirit, your mind, your schedule—that's keeping you from hearing God clearly (and getting our work done). In this episode, I share how a single word—obedience—sent me on a journey through Scripture, from the psalms of David to the boldness of Esther to the radical transformation of Paul. What I discovered? True obedience isn't possible without surrender—and surrender doesn't come without sacrifice. We'll talk about: Why your prayers might feel unanswered How fear—especially fear of losing control—can block our ability to obey Why Esther's story still speaks to every woman with doubts about the future How to adopt a God-perspective instead of a worldly one—and how that can bring more wisdom and peace And how emotional, spiritual, and even physical clutter may be keeping you stuck If you've been asking God to change something—but feel like you're circling the same mountain—this episode is for you. Key Scriptures: Ecclesiastes 12:13 Philippians 4:11–13, 19 Acts 9:1–22 Esther 4:14 Romans 12:1–2 Matthew 6:33–34 Isaiah 1:16–19 Jeremiah 29:11
This one's personal. I'm sharing a story from one of the scariest seasons of my life—and how learning to surrender to God and still show up changed everything.If you've been waiting, feeling stuck, or wondering if God's really working behind the scenes… I hope this encourages you.Surrender doesn't mean sitting still—it means trusting God while taking the next right step. Let's talk about what that can look like in your life, too.
In Week 3 of our Fully Devoted series, we unpack what it really means to lay our lives down at the altar. Being fully devoted to Jesus isn't just about public worship — it's about private surrender, sacrificial obedience, and doing the will of the Father even when no one's watching. This message challenges us to ask: If God asked for my most valuable possession, my future, or even my life — would I be willing to lay it down? True devotion is more than words — it's obedience in action. Follow us on Instagram @lyahampton & join us every Tuesday in the LSM building at 7 p.m.!

Not so fast! We unpack the surprise EU-US trade deal that has everyone shouting sellout but we see it differently. In this episode, we take a deeper look at what really went down in the Trump-triggered tariff negotiations. The headlines scream defeat: Europe folds, Trump wins, 15% tariffs slapped on all EU goods while the US gets full access to the European market. But is that the full story? We break it down, the EU runs a $200 billion trade surplus with the US. So why would they agree to this? Because sometimes in poker, the smartest move is folding a bad hand to fight another day. We also lift the lid on the civil war brewing within Europe: the Commission vs. the member states, nationalism vs. federalism, free trade idealism vs. geopolitical realism. Germany wants to protect its cars. France its booze. Ireland? Our pharma sector's now hanging in the balance. We talk street-fighting Trump vs. rulebook Europe, why this deal might actually be good news for investment in Ireland. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this passionate two-part commentary, the host dismantles the legacy of globalist trade policies pushed by the Bush-era political establishment and exposes the near-catastrophic consequences of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Celebrating Donald Trump's trade victories—particularly the EU deal described by France's prime minister as “total submission”—the segment underscores how Trump reversed decades of bipartisan failure, reclaimed American economic sovereignty, and exposed media and political elites as consistently wrong. From trade reform to media bias in mass shooting coverage, the show argues that a new era of unapologetic
Surrender, submission, humiliation. Those are the words floating around in Europe after the US and the EU reached a tariff deal this weekend that President Trump described as the “biggest deal” ever made.

The Pitfalls of Leadership are descending steps, one connects to the other with predictable effects. Some leaders have referred to the descent as a “chain reaction.” The descent can be stopped at any time, with an intervention from others who the leader listens and healthily responds to, or a cry out from the leader in descent who is heard and responded to by others. The Five Pitfalls: Work becomes confused with one's worth. Performance begins to be valued more than one's presence. People become things. To be an example to others, the true self is isolated. Secrets sap one's passion and purpose. These pitfalls can destroy careers, friendships, reputations, marriages and families—unless one is freed from them. Living in freedom from the Pitfalls is work. It is a daily activity and a lifestyle. In the Pitfalls, we are driven by what we are running from. Essentially, we are running from: Feelings, needs, desire, longings, and hope that expose our vulnerability; Telling the truth about our hearts that expresses our need of others; Trusting a process that we are not in control of, which expresses our distrust of God. The daily activities that become the recovering leader's lifestyle are: Confession - the acknowledgment of my own healthy shame, and need of others and God. Admission - the full awareness that I do not have control over life, and the more I attempt to get control, the more unmanageable my life becomes. Surrender - practicing believing and trusting that God has control; therefore, I give myself to God and the way God works, because my attempt to control life hasn't worked. Acceptance - the practice of turning my heart and life over to God who cares for me, knowing that whatever happens, God wants good for me because I am loved. Daily activities have to be practiced until we see the results and their benefits; The daily practices become a lifestyle. The leader eventually desires for his/her life to be different and adopts the new lifestyle because it is “better” than what life was like in the Pitfalls.

If our spiritual guides are not perfect, what will inspire us to surrender to them? by Exploring mindfulness, yoga and spirituality
This week on Let's Try This Again, I'm your host B Simone, and I'm inviting you deep into my solo journey of surrender, discipline, and stepping fully into purpose—even when the weight feels heavy. Filmed before a wave of backlash in my own life, this episode felt prophetic in every way: as I spoke encouragement to you, I was unknowingly pouring into myself for what was to come. I open up about my time at Tasha Cobbs' Inner Glow conference, the anxiety of performing for a new audience, and the power of having someone as anointed as Tasha truly see and pray for me. We'll get raw about feeling unqualified, not waiting to “clean up” before you share your testimony, and realizing that God's anointing doesn't need to look like anyone else's.We talk about my 10-day water fast, those breaking points where all you can pray is “help me Jesus,” and the courage it takes to obey seemingly small convictions—like picking up a water bottle at the airport. I challenge you to ask: what's your “water bottle” moment, and where might disobedience or doubt be keeping you from your next step? This episode is packed with honest encouragement for anyone tired of being strong, feeling unseen in a season of solitude, or wrestling with letting go of what no longer serves you. From practical gratitude exercises to brutal truths about fighting your flesh and honoring your calling, I hold nothing back. If you're ready for a dose of faith, realness, and a fire to pick up that next baton—this one's for you.//SPONSORS//Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau: Visit www.FindYourMiami.comMint Mobile: This year, skip breaking a sweat AND breaking the bank.

This week we'll study Luke 9:21-27 under the theme “Take Up Your Cross.” Jesus' call to discipleship is startlingly clear: following Him requires daily self-denial and cross-bearing. We'll explore what this means (and doesn't mean), why the cost of refusing Him is far greater than the cost of obedience, and how this difficult path paradoxically leads to true freedom and joy.SERIES SUMMARY: This series is based on the best-selling Christian book, Practicing the Way, by John Mark Comer. This work guides Christians toward spiritual formation by following the lifestyle of Jesus — through intentional practices like silence, sabbath, simplicity, and community. It emphasizes becoming like Jesus by doing what he did, integrating faith into everyday life through rhythm, discipline, and deep apprenticeship.How can we pray for you? tinyurl.com/stmarcusprayersFill out our online connection card: tinyurl.com/stmarcusconnectcardIf you'd like to leave an offering or monetary donation to our ministry please click here: https://tinyurl.com/stmarcusgive

Why does keeping Christ's commandments matter so much? Because obedience leads to intimacy. Jesus promises to manifest Himself to those who treasure His words (John 14:21). As we keep His commands, we receive His love, experience answered prayer, grow in joy, and reflect His heart to others. In loving Him this way, we find life and lasting fellowship.In this series, we've seen that true love for Christ is shown by keeping His commandments—not to earn His favor, but because we already have it. As we treasure His Word, He transforms our minds, fills our hearts, and draws us into deeper intimacy. Obedience is not a burden, but a pathway into the joy and presence of the One we love.Want to go deeper in studying this command of Christ?

What if experiencing a miracle isn't about formulas, prayers, or luck… but about posture? In Part 4 of Miracles: Then & Now, Andy Stanley challenges a common assumption about miracles: they aren't random, but they do happen where people position themselves in surrender to God's purposes. It's not about manipulating outcomes — it's about embracing trust even when it costs us something. If you've been wrestling with a big decision, wondering where God is, or hoping for something more — this message will help you reframe the conversation. Sometimes the miracle isn't what God does for you — it's what God does in you.

Hello Fam, Due to some changes in policies in streaming platforms like Spotify, we would be changing our Sleep Music only content to Guided Meditation + Sleep Music to help you sleep better. As uploading Music Only Tracks would make the Spotify remove our Podcast, so that's the reason for changing To Guided Meditation Tracks. We will also be coming soon with our own Android/iOS app to serve you better. Hope you understand and continue to support us.

Message by Larry Osborne on July 26, 2025. Jesus doesn't say you can't have both God and money—He says you can't serve them both. This week, we'll learn how Matthew 6:19-24 helps us navigate the fork-in-the-road decisions we all face and figure out how to enjoy God's blessings without letting them master us.

"At M2 The Rock, we fully respect the anonymity of all 12-step fellowships. In alignment with their traditions, we do not represent or speak on behalf of any of these groups. Our mission is to share hope, not affiliation."About M2 THE ROCK - MICHAEL MOLTHAN:I'm Michael Molthan, host of The M2 The Rock Show—one of the fastest-growing podcasts and shows on self-improvement, mental health, addiction recovery, and spiritual transformation. I'm so grateful you're here.I started M2 The Rock in 2017 to bring you conversations designed to make you happier, healthier, and more healed. Through raw and unfiltered discussions with experts, celebrities, thought leaders, and athletes, we uncover new perspectives on personal growth, recovery, and overcoming life's toughest challenges.My Story:What sets my journey apart is that there wasn't just one rock bottom—there were many. From being a successful luxury homebuilder to falling into addiction, homelessness, crime, and eventually 27 mugshots and prison, my life was in absolute chaos.Addiction was my temporary escape from childhood trauma, but it only led to destruction.It wasn't until I hit the lowest point imaginable that I finally found true freedom, redemption, and purpose. After an unexpected early release from prison in 2017, I walked 300 miles back to Dallas to turn myself in—only to be miraculously pardoned and told to “pay it forward.”And that's exactly what I've been doing ever since.My MissionI believe that rock bottom is not the end—it's a stepping stone to something greater.My goal is to redefine what "rock bottom" means by helping others rebuild their Spirit, Mind, and Body. On M2 The Rock, I speak openly about trauma, addiction, recovery, and the power of transformation. I don't shy away from topics like:✅ Trauma & Addiction – Understanding the root causes✅ Self-Sabotage & Mental Health – Breaking negative cycles✅ Codependency & Enabling – How relationships impact recovery✅ 12-Step Programs & Spiritual Healing – Finding true freedom✅ Religious Trauma & Personal Growth – Healing from past wounds"Everyone Is An Addict."Whether it's substances, work, validation, or negative thinking, we all have something we struggle with.But recovery is possible, and transformation is real.

It's a reminder to stay open, surrender control and let yourself be surprised. Because anything is possible… and your desires might be closer than you think.
