He knows the hairs on your head, He knows the circumstances of your life. He shows up in unusual ways.Adoption is a reasonable small investment up front to change a life.If you want to experience God, see where He's moving and join in that movement.  "Begin with the end in mind, think what you want to do, write it down, and have some people hold you accountable to that." —  Gary Ringger About Gary Ringger: Gary is the founder of Lifesong for Orphans, but his preferred title is Orphan Advocate.

In this deeply reflective episode of the Spiritual Journey Podcast, hosts Nimesh Radia and Stacey Brown explore the often uncomfortable, yet profoundly transformative, experience of waiting on the spiritual path.Together, they unpack the difference between emotional stagnation and spiritual stillness, the surrender required when things feel paused, and how to stay connected to presence and purpose even when the next steps feel uncertain.Through powerful personal stories — from Stacey's current visa journey to Nimesh's career pivot from corporate to soul-led — this episode invites listeners to see waiting as sacred, and to trust that the universe is always working behind the scenes.Whether you're in a season of stillness, transition, or seeking clarity, this episode is a reminder that you're not behind — you're becoming.Topics explored:

You weren't just saved to sit.You were built, broken, refined, and redeemed — to give it back.Today's message is a call to every person who's ever gone through something and wondered, “Why me?”Here's the answer: Because someone else needs what God taught you in the process.You're not just a survivor — you're a steward.You're not just a learner — you're a leader.You're not just blessed — you're being sent.If God taught you through the fire, it's because you're called to teach others how to walk through it with Him.

In a season of Stillness, but I'm still here. ❤️‍

Can people really leave behind same-sex attraction? Kimberly Zember says yes—and that claim alone makes her a controversial figure. But as she shares with Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, her story is not about politics or slogans—it's about a soul seeking truth, stumbling through pain, and ultimately finding peace in Christ.   Raised Catholic but lacking a clear picture of God's love, Kimberly lived a double life for years—dating women in secret, wrestling with fear and isolation, and seeking help from those who too often offered affirmation instead of truth. Despite the confusion and the failures, she never stopped searching for something more than feelings or labels could offer.   Kimberly's refusal to reduce herself to an identity—whether lesbian, missionary, or even “religious”—points to a deeper Christian anthropology: our actions do not define our essence. Through her testimony, she invites us to consider what it really means to live as a child of God in a culture that pushes us to define ourselves by our desires.   Subscribe to our newsletter to get this amazing report: Refuting the Top 5 Gay Myths https://ruthinstitute.org/refute-the-top-five-myths/   Have a question or a comment?

Through her personal testimony she helps give others insight into how to love those around them who identify within the LGBTQ community and also gives hope and direction to those who may have same-sex attraction or struggle with their identity.   For more information on Kim's ministry visit: www.BoldlyBeloved.com For more information on Kimberly's Mission in Ethiopia: https://www.unforgottenfaces.org/   Have a question or a comment?

From anger and lust to love for enemies, Jesus redefines obedience, showing that true holiness starts within. Join us as we explore how guarding and surrendering our hearts reflects the character of God in everyday life.   Give to The Great Pursuit Missions Offering - https://firstbaptistbg.org/give Submit a question - bit.ly/BeyondSundayQuestions

In this heartfelt episode of Enchantress Society with Tia Johnson, Tia shares an honest reflection on what it means to experience a “Tower Moment”- a time of sudden change, endings, or upheaval - and how those moments, while difficult, can be powerful catalysts for growth, alignment, and deep healing. As Tia prepares to take a well-deserved pause from the podcast, she invites you into her world one last time (for now) to talk about the beauty in surrendering, the wisdom in rest, and the magic that can only come when we make space for what's next. This isn't goodbye - it's a sacred pause. Let this episode be a reminder that transformation is part of the journey, and even Tower Moments can build the foundation for something even more aligned and beautiful. Thank you for being here. Thank you for listening. And thank you for walking this path with Tia.

It's the foundation for success. What You Consume Shapes Your Thoughts: Social media, negativity, and poor influences affect your game more than you realize. Practice Must Simulate Pressure: If your practice isn't harder than competition, you're not preparing properly. Detach from Outcomes, Stay Present: Golf is unpredictable—accept it, embrace it, and play freely. Success is Built on Objectivity, Not Emotion: Learn to evaluate your shots with facts, not feelings. Play More, Practice Smarter: A perfect swing isn't the answer—playing in real conditions builds skill and adaptability. Your Why Matters More Than Your How: Understand why you play, and your path to success becomes clearer. Key Quotes: "You think the thoughts you consume—be careful what you feed your mind."  "The best players don't beat themselves; they stay present, focused, and in control."  "To gain control, you have to lose control. You can't force success."  "Every round has setbacks. The difference between great and average players is how they respond."  "Golf is not black and white—it's 50 shades of green."  "The scorecard only has a box for a number, not a narrative. Stop trying to control the story."  "The more we sweat in peace, the less we bleed in war."  Time Stamps: 00:00 The Power of Early Mornings 02:57 Introspection Amidst Chaos 05:59 The Impact of Social Media on Focus 08:56 Understanding Self 1 and Self 2 11:58 The Journey of Continuous Learning 14:57 Embracing Challenges with Curiosity 18:04 The Importance of Acceptance in Golf 20:56 Practicing Mindset for Performance 23:54 Training for Real-World Scenarios 31:07 The Commonality Among Tour Golfers 34:43 The Mental Game of Golf 37:24 Surrendering to the Process 40:10 Objective Evaluation of Performance 42:50 The Joy of Golf and Relationships 46:55 The Balance of Practice and Play

In this episode of Pandora's Box, I share two deeply personal experiences from this past week that reminded me what it means to surrender to something greater. From getting unexpectedly stuck in the sand on the beach to making the difficult decision to walk away from a summer job due to EMF exposure, I explore the powerful theme of letting go of the plan — and trusting the soul's compass instead. We talk about the difference between ego-driven control and soul-guided alignment, how to recognize when life is rerouting you, and why honoring your inner knowing — even when it disrupts your plans — is essential for walking the true path. If you're navigating uncertainty, feeling stuck, or facing unexpected redirection, this episode offers a grounded and soulful reminder that the path of surrender often leads exactly where you're meant to go.

As we close out the beautiful month of May, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, join me this week, as I reflect on Mary's Fiat—her courageous and wholehearted “yes” to God—and how it continues to inspire Catholic women today. Through personal stories, scripture, Marian devotion, and insights I unpack the obstacles we face when trying to say yes to God—fear, control, suffering, and doubt—and how, like Mary, we can find the grace to trust even when the path is painful or uncertain. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, questioning your next steps, or longing to grow deeper in faith, this episode offers gentle encouragement and powerful reminders that: Saying yes is not a one-time moment—it's a daily mindset. Surrendering to God isn't giving up—it's claiming your victory. Even in suffering, God walks with you—and will equip you for the path ahead. Jennie Guinn is a Catholic life coach, podcaster, and radio show host who walks with women facing life's unexpected turns. She helps them encounter the Father's love, be transformed by the Holy Spirit, and find healing from pain and disappointment so they can magnify Christ with their lives. Through faith-filled coaching and heartfelt conversations, Jennie empowers women to rediscover hope and to live life with purpose and joy.

When we encounter a problem in life, we often try to deal with it ourselves. We struggle with that until we turn it over to God. The truth is, God should be our first option, not our last. How much trouble would we save ourselves if we went to Him first rather than later? Stop turning to doctors, friends, and YouTube for help with our problems; let God be God. We cannot stop the enemy from taking his turn. We cannot stop the weapon from being formed, but the fight is over once God has His turn. The bible has many stories where God moves in to confuse the enemy and turn them against themselves, or wins the battle before it begins. The people of God could not have won the battle despite all their energy and effort, but God was more than enough to prevail. Time and time again, God will do what we cannot do. When we think we are at our end, God is just getting started. Surrendering to God is not weakness. He will not look at us in shame for turning to Him. In our text, the woman with the issue of blood had spent many frustrating years, exhausted her savings, but still suffered. Then she heard about Jesus. In a moment, her years of suffering were over. The bible says she knew in that moment that God had healed her. When you've tried everything you can do, let God have His turn.

In this episode, Han and Emily speak through an array of reminders that were important to hold close when diving into a committed recovery. The key takeaways are…Surrendering involves consistently doing. Even in the presence of doubt.Doing good often doesn't feel good.Your brain doesn't have to be on board.Neuroscience and psychology tells us the brain is wired for familiarity and survival, not joy or fulfilment.Your thoughts are not the truth. They cannot force you to act.Hunger is normal and safe. A body relentless communication of it (including mentally!) is absolutely reasonable.Discomfort is temporary. The hard moments will pass. Slips are not failures. Recovery is non linear.Embrace the fact that recovery is messy.Recovery is absolutely possible, and absolutely going to be worth it!

Regardless of where life takes us, let’s hold onto hope. Let’s live our days with joyful anticipation of the good God will certainly continue to pour out into our lives. Let’s trust that God’s mighty, caring hand is working on his master, good plan. Even right now through what isn’t going as you planned. Know that he will lift you up in due time. - Keri Eichberger Today’s episode of Your Daily Prayer speaks directly to those wrestling with disappointment when life doesn’t go as planned. Keri Eichberger shares personal moments of heartbreak and missed expectations, reminding us that even in life's detours, God's plan is still good. This devotional invites listeners to release their anxious striving and to trust in God’s timing, provision, and care. Topics covered: Trusting God through unexpected setbacks Finding hope in disappointment Surrendering our plans to God's will God’s sovereignty and timing Holding tightly to eternal hope Scripture References 1 Peter 5:6–7 “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”

The central theme of this podcast episode revolves around the profound connection between artistic expression and personal surrender, particularly in the context of the speaker's musical journey. We delve into the creation of the album titled "if in case you feel the same," which began in 2016 and faced numerous delays due to external pressures from the record label. The speaker recounts the moment of clarity when they resolved to release the album amidst a global pandemic, asserting that the music was "looking for a fight." This decision led to unexpected recognition, including being invited to perform on "The Tonight Show" shortly after contemplating a career shift. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the unpredictable nature of artistic endeavors and the importance of remaining open to the possibilities that arise, even when one considers stepping away from their passions.Takeaways: The creation of art is an evolving journey that often involves significant delays and challenges. The album 'if in case you feel the same' was conceived in 2016 but released amid a pandemic in 2020. Artists frequently navigate the complexities of their relationships with record labels regarding release decisions. Music serves as a powerful medium for connection, often leading to profound conversations between artists and their audiences. Surrendering to the unpredictability of a creative career can lead to unexpected opportunities and recognition. The act of making music embodies a sense of service, aiming to resonate with listeners on a deeper level. Companies mentioned in this episode: Jimmy Fallon The Roots

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. And a big shout-out today to William Beaumont from Hampton, FL. William, thank you for being a part of this movement through Project23. You are making a difference. This one's for you. Today, we're looking at Mark 3:7-12: Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great crowd followed, from Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem and Idumea and from beyond the Jordan and from around Tyre and Sidon. When the great crowd heard all that he was doing, they came to him. And he told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they crush him, for he had healed many, so that all who had diseases pressed around him to touch him. And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.” And he strictly ordered them not to make him known. — Mark 3:7-12 Jesus withdraws from the synagogue in our last text, but he doesn't withdraw from the growing mission. Word has spread. People are coming from every direction. Not just from one region (Galilee) but from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, Tyre, and Sidon. These were regions far and wide, Jewish and Gentile alike. And the scene gets chaotic. Mark describes it as "crushing." It was "mob-like." The crowd is so massive and enthusiastic that Jesus tells his disciples to keep water transport ready—just in case things they need to make a quick escape. Thus, Mark reveals that following Jesus wasn't always safe at times. It wasn't always peaceful. But it was always revealing. Why were they coming? Well, one part of the crowd came because they had heard what Jesus was doing. The healings. The power. The miracles. And they came—not necessarily because they understood who Jesus was—but because they wanted something from Jesus. They wanted relief, not necessarily repentance. They wanted his power but not necessarily his presence. But notice how those possessed by unclean spirits respond. The demons in them recognized Jesus. They fell before him and declared, “You are the Son of God.” They, unlike others, understood his identity, power, and authority, and they submitted to him. One group of people seeks what Jesus can do. The other group of people surrenders to who Jesus is. So today, ask yourself: Do you only come to Jesus when you seek something or to fully surrender to the King? ASK THIS: Why do I approach Jesus—seeking relief or fully surrendering to his lordship? Have I valued what Jesus does more than who he is? In which areas of my life am I holding back submission to Jesus? How can I shift from using Jesus to genuinely following him? DO THIS: Do this: Before you reach for Jesus' help again, pause and offer him not just your needs but your full submission. PRAY THIS: Lord Jesus, I come to you both for healing and for heart‑change. Teach me to lay down my agenda and fully submit to your authority. Amen. PLAY THIS: Need A Favor.

Modern society loves the concept of ‘saving time' – but at what cost? There's nothing wrong with streamlining and efficiency, but today Meagan and Sarah push back against the notion that time-saving strategies – and products – unilaterally bring more calm to our days. Instead we look at ways to think about shifting time to our advantage, batching tasks and opting out to free up schedule space, simplifying rather than optimizing, and finding our own peace with our relationship to time.This is Part 2 of a three-part series about Time running this spring.
