Pastor Andy Cass "Neediness" is by design. Jesus teaches us that our neediness is not a flaw—it's an invitation. We are invited to ask, to knock, and to trust that God gives good gifts to His children. TEXT: Luke 11:5–13, James 1:5, James 4:6, James 5:16, James 2:16 NOTES: -God is a Giver, and Satan is a Taker. -God gives permission to ask, and Satan takes your confidence in asking God by whispering, “You're annoying. You're too needy. You're too much.” OR God gives permission to ask, and Satan takes your humility and replaces it with pride by shouting, “You deserve it. You don't have as much as they do. What's wrong with God?” ART OF ASKING // According to the Book of James -Permission — James -Posture — James 4:6 -Person of Good Reputation — James 5:16 -Pay It Forward — James 2:16 Action Step: Permission to ask, so ask way The Problem: We forget that we are designed to be needy, or at other times we are just too whiny about what we don't have. The Plan: Ask in order to give, appreciate what you receive, and become more like God the Giver.

In this episode, Mariana speaks with Alan Stoga, former partner of Henry Kissinger and Chairman of the Tallberg Foundations, about the historical consequences of the Trump presidency, how the world we grow up in is morphing, and what is likely to be America's role in this new world.  They also discuss how countries like Mexico will not only have to learn how to adapt to this new context but also recognize that President Trump will not shy away from merging economic, commercial, military and security tools to achieve his desired outcomes.  Lastly, they discern how the Don-Roe Doctrine is different (or similar) to the traditional U.S. approach towards Latin America, and how, in this context, China's presence in the Americas might be challenged.   

Pastor Andy Cass In this message from the If I Won the Lottery… series, we confront the lie of scarcity and discover a better way forward. Jesus reframes losing, finding, and generosity through three powerful stories — a lost sheep, a lost coin, and a lost son. God is a giver, which makes us winners — but distraction, waste, and isolation can cause us to live like we're losing. TEXT: Luke 15:3–12, Ephesians 2:10, Joel 2:25, John 10:10, Hebrews 10:24–25 NOTES: Big Idea: Patch the Pitcher and Pour out the first 10% God gives purpose — Satan takes purpose and replaces it with distraction. God gives restoration — Satan takes what is broken and exploits it. God gives community — Satan takes community and isolates. Stop losing, Start Finding God is a Giver, Satan is a Taker, What are you?

The road to King of the Ring features a chaotic main event and one of the most dangerous splashes in WWE history.We break down Rikishi's legendary splash off the 10-foot stage onto Val Venis, a move that still makes our knees hurt just watching it.

Morning Mantra: "There are two kinds of people in this world; Givers and Takers.  The Takers might eat better, but the Givers sleep better." Will you be a Giver or a Taker today?Givers advance the world, Takers advance themselves at the expense of others.Givers are relationship oriented, Takers are agenda oriented.Givers understand that we are all connected, Takers separate themselves from others they deem less than.Givers offer grace, Takers offer judgement.Givers can fill their own cup, a Taker is in constant need to have their cup filled by others.Givers appreciate more, Takers criticize more.Life shouldn't be about taking and having, but about giving and living. Each day we get a new opportunity to be the face of God.  To be the face of love.Sleep well tonight knowing you gave the world your love.#BeAGiver  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Comments/ideas: asiaclimatefinpod@outlook.comAsia's climate finance landscape is evolving rapidly. In our discussion, our guest,  KPMG's Ha Do, explores how Asian governments are shifting from policy ambitions to concrete implementation, the climate finance mechanisms proving most effective in mobilising capital, and why state-owned enterprises remain at mid-stage ESG maturity.

She serves as a board director of Pacific Basin Economic Council (PBEC), an international business association that promotes cross-border trades. She also sits in the Asia Pacific Advisory Council for Global Infrastructure Project Financing Association (IPFA), a global organization for the infrastructure and energy financing industry.

My guest this week is Alma Katsu, the award-winning, critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling author of nine novels. Alma has written two spy novels, "Red Widow" and "Red London," inspired by her 35-year career working in intelligence. She also writes novels that combine historical fiction with supernatural and horror elements."The Hunger" was a re-imagining of the story of the Donner Party and named one of NPR's 100 favorite horror stories. Her first book, "The Taker," was named one of the top 10 debut novels of 2011 by Booklist. And her latest novel, brand new, hot off the presses, is "Fiend," which examines our fascination with the ultra wealthy through a lens that combines dark fantasy and horror. Think Succession meets Angel Heart, if you're old enough to remember that movie.Alma's books have been translated into over a dozen languages and several are in various stages of film and television development. She's also a contributor to the Washington Post book world where she reviews thrillers.We covered:- How she came to work in US intelligence for 35 years, despite having early ambitions of being a writer- Why she writes so many different genres (spy thrillers, horror, speculative fiction)- An inside peek at just an absolutely fascinating government career- The illness that got her writing again- The challenges of building a readership- Why she thinks writing a novel that's inspired by the news is more persuasive than writing an article- How her background in intelligence helps her come up with ideas for her novels- Unlearning old habits of driving herself too hard- Recommitting to exercise so she has stamina for book toursConnect with Alma on Substack: https://substack.com/@almakatsuFor full show notes with links to everything we discuss, plus bonus photos!, visit katehanley.substack.com.Thank you for listening!And thanks to this week's sponsor, Aqua Tru.

Bob and Luis discuss TNA TV deal, WWE's plateau, and review In Your House: Revenge of the Taker!

Before The Rock, John Cena, or Batista did it, The Undertaker went Hollywood! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White alongside fellow P.S.K. member Stephen Zieman as they hop in the time-traveling hearse back to 1999 and the summer The Undertaker was making guest appearances on all sorts of tv shows! It's an often overlooked era of Taker's career and even The Dead Man's most dedicated fans may have never even heard of some of these offbeat appearances. We'll break down his guest roles on MTV cartoons like "Celebrity Deathmatch" and "Downtown," his brief stint as a host on the SciFi Channel, and in our main event, his biggest acting role yet as The Soul Chaser on an episode of "Poltergeist: The Legacy"! Taker actually has a major role on this episode as the "monster of the week" character and we get to see what he could have done had he chased down fame and fortune as an action star. It's also hilarious time-capsule of low-budget 90s tv and we have a great time breaking down even if you've never seen or heard of this one. All that plus our monthly Undertaker Sightings including his role in the WrestleMania 43 press conference and his big surprise for Stephanie McMahon at WrestlePalooza. Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!      Make sure you're subscribed to the Collecting Deadman channel to see Stephen's incredible toy room tour!   Pick up our new P.S.K.
