Podcasts about talents

On this episode we are joined by **Tracy Michael Davis**, as he share his experiences, musical talents, and discusses lessons drawn primarily from the Parable of the Talents. Davis, originally from Brooklyn, New York City, recently moved to Colorado to start the **first healthcare high school in Colorado Springs**, which will open in 2027 and offer students the ability to earn associates degrees and college credits. The conversation centers on faithfulness and stewardship, highlighting that **faithfulness absolutely unlocks promotion** and warning that neglect leads to loss when managing the gifts and talents God has given.Connect with Tracy:Instagram: @tracymichael_Connect with us:Facebook @KingdomMisfitsemail us at [kingdommisfitsco@gmail.com](mailto:kingdommisfitsco@gmail.com)Music in the episode is brought to you by Epidemic Sound and UppBeat.io

In this week's message, Matthew Balentine explores Jesus' Parable of the Talents from Matthew 25:14–30, reminding us that everything we have—our time, our talents, and our treasures—belongs to God. Through this story, we learn that God entrusts each of us with different resources, not equally but intentionally. The question isn't what we've been given—it's what we're doing with what we've been given. Matthew challenges us to examine whether we're investing our blessings for God's glory or burying them in fear and excuses. True faithfulness isn't about quantity or comparison—it's about obedience, gratitude, and action.

[School of Movies 2025] In an unprecedented show-type for us, what we have here began life as an After School Club commission by Tylor Long. Before it could be released it got upgraded to become a full Main Event show after this wonderful, darkly-funny, warm-hearted ghost story got included in our Discord Halloween watch-along. The premise is familiarly bureaucratic, and simple enough for little kids to understand; In the afterlife ghosts must work to scare the living in order to be remembered. The results are what feels like the Taiwanese Beetlejuice, utilising the trappings of horror movies without ever actually being scary. It also seems to have a hell of a lot of things to say about the attention economy in a world where MrBeast is the highest aspirational figure for so many young people. What Dead Talents Society hints at is that there's so much more to existence than just being talked about by strangers. Released straight to streaming in 2024, this movie is ironically virtually unseen and unheard of, but you should absolutely listen to this show and track this film down. It's going right at the top of our films of the year list.

Tom Logue - November 2nd 2025 God forgives 10,000 talents — and forgiven people forgive. This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:21–35, where Jesus teaches what forgiveness actually is, and what reconciliation actually requires. Using the parable of the unforgiving servant, Tom shows how forgiveness is not pretending nothing happened — forgiveness is paying the debt yourself instead of making the other person pay. He also unpacks why reconciliation requires both ingredients: repentance + forgiveness… not one without the other. This message calls us out of pride, bitterness, tally-keeping, and “they owe me,” into the freedom and humility of the gospel — where God cancels our unpayable debt through Christ, and empowers us to extend that same mercy toward others.

We hope you enjoy today's message from Pastor Josh Shelton at LifeChurch, St. Louis

Bass After Dark — inch for inch and pound for pound, the best show in fishing — is back for another lively, and LIVE, episode. Don't miss Ken Duke, Brian the Carpenter, and our three mystery panelists (spoiler alert: it's Kurt Dove, John Johnson, and Ben Milliken) as we tackle the question: Where should I take my talents in 2026?

Matthew 25:14-30

Generosity encompasses time, energy, resources, and prayers, shaping how we live, serve, and influence the world around us. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind believers that God is the ultimate standard of generosity and that everything we have comes from Him, from spiritual blessings to everyday provisions. The guys emphasize that giving is rooted in being fully satisfied in the Lord, recognizing that our most profound joy and fulfillment flow from His hand. When we hunger for Him, our time, talents, and treasures naturally become instruments to bless others, build community, and point people toward God's goodness.The guys explore generosity in daily life, encouraging believers to offer their skills, invest time in relationships, and give with grace and thoughtfulness. Giving is not limited to finances; it can mean lending possessions, offering gifts of service, mentoring the next generation, or using influence for the good of others. True generosity is sacrificial, not just a matter of convenience or abundance. It extends to sharing the gospel even in the face of rejection or persecution. The generous soul is made rich as it reflects God's heart, mirrors the ultimate gift of Christ giving His life for humanity, and points others to the joy of living under His provision.Generosity also shapes our finances, relationships, and daily choices. Money and resources amplify what is already in the heart, revealing whether we trust God or cling to security in material things. The guys explain that cheerful, sacrificial giving requires faith, humility, and awareness of the heart, going beyond money to include time, attention, and intentional priorities. Forgiveness is a vital expression of generosity, reflecting the gospel by offering mercy even without reconciliation or recognition. By esteeming others, freely giving of ourselves, and modeling grace, believers demonstrate the transforming power of Christ in both ordinary moments and extraordinary acts.The guys remind believers that generosity is central to the gospel and has historically distinguished Christians in the world. Early believers revolutionized society through radical giving, serving those who hated them, and standing apart through sacrificial love. Generosity continues to witness to both Christians and the unsaved, speaking volumes where words alone cannot reach. It is a freeing practice grounded in trust in the living God. True generosity flows from hearts devoted to Him, willing to give freely and abundantly because His love compels us to reflect His character in every aspect of life.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Assessing Mark Carney's Ability to Resolve US-Canada Tariff Conflict Conrad Black Conrad Black discusses Mark Carney, Canada's new Prime Minister and distinguished senior banker, regarding his talents to mediate the deteriorating US-Canada conversations over tariffs. Black, despite having significant differences with Carney on issues such as climate policy and Brexit, believes Carney's deep financial expertise, diplomatic personality, and well-informed perspective make him the right person to deescalate the conflict. Black expresses confidence that Carney can work toward a reasonable agreement that addresses both nations' concerns and prevents further economic damage. 1884 OTTAWA

On Sunday morning, we concluded a five-part message series called “Entrusted: The Joys of Stewardship.”  In this final message, we studied Jesus' famous story, “The Parable of the Talents.”  While many Christians today want to stand by at a safe distance or sit comfortably in their Sunday seats, Jesus calls every follower of His to the ‘stewardship of doing.'  What vital truths are unleashed in this text for your everyday life? What will it take for you to be rewarded by your Master? (Entrusted: The Joys of Stewardship, part 5)

Did you know your financial advisor can actually help you invest in ways that reflect your faith?Advisors do more than just help you hit financial targets—they can also guide you in making a lasting impact with your investments. Today, Josh Bean joins us to share how to start the conversation about faith-based investing.Josh Bean is the National Sales Manager for Praxis Investment Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.25 Years of Change in Faith-Based InvestingAbout 25 years ago, Praxis conducted its first major study on faith-based investing. This year, they decided to revisit that research and see how investor attitudes have evolved.Partnering with Bellomy Market Research, the Praxis team surveyed over 1,000 individual investors and 400 financial advisors to explore the motivations, opportunities, and concerns surrounding faith-aligned portfolios.The exciting part is that the results confirmed what they've believed all along: people genuinely want to align their investments with what matters most to them. You can explore the full report at PraxisInvests.com/FaithBasedInvesting.According to the study, nearly half of all investors—48%—have already aligned their portfolios with their faith or are interested in doing so. What's striking is that this number encompasses all investors, not just those with a religious background.People see investing as more than performance—it's about purpose. They want their portfolios to reflect their convictions.The Advisor Gap: 78% Want Guidance, But Only 9% Are AskedPerhaps the most surprising finding is the communication gap between clients and advisors.78% of investors said it's important for their advisor to discuss faith-aligned options, but only 9% of advisors say they actually bring it up.That gap is one of the biggest barriers to growth. Investors are eager. Advisors often just don't know how to start the conversation. That's where firms like Praxis can help bridge the gap.One reason some advisors hesitate? The lingering myth that values-driven investing means sacrificing returns.That's just not the case anymore. At Praxis, they aim for benchmark-like returns through diversified, optimized portfolios. They screen out approximately 15% of companies that don't align with their values and incorporate positive impact strategies—all while closely tracking performance.This approach isn't just about numbers—it's about stewardship. In the Parable of the Talents, Jesus commends the faithful servants who wisely managed what they were given. That's our model—faithful stewardship with Kingdom impact.An Expanding Landscape of Faith-Based OptionsFaith-based investing has come a long way. What once seemed niche now includes mutual funds, ETFs, and multi-fund portfolios that reflect a range of Christian values and causes.Investors today can build diversified, competitive portfolios entirely within the faith-based space. There are more options—and better tools—than ever before.Among those tools are screening systems that allow investors to exclude companies that conflict with biblical values or to include those that make a positive social or environmental impact.Taking the First Step: Talk With Your AdvisorFor those new to this space, start the conversation. Ask your advisor, Can my faith be reflected in my investment strategy? That one question could open the door to an entirely new way of stewarding your money.To help, Praxis has created a free Faith-Based Investing brochure, available at PraxisInvests.com/FaithBasedInvesting. It provides practical guidance on initiating faith-aligned conversations with your financial advisor.And if you'd like to find a Certified Kingdom Advisor who specializes in Faith-Based Investing, you can visit FindACKA.com. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 82 years old and recently got a cold call from someone asking if I'd like to sell my house for cash. I don't owe anything on it—just pay for homeowners' insurance and utilities. Since God has blessed me to live mortgage-free, should I even consider their offer?I'm considering taking out a $20,000 loan, but I'd rather not use a home equity loan, even though my credit is good. I was thinking of a personal loan through Bank of America instead.

What if every sales call you made came with instant coaching from Jeremy Miner himself, powered by AI? Paul Allen, founder of Ancestry.com and now Soar AI, covers how sales psychology and AI coaching are transforming the way knowledge workers master communication. In this conversation, Jeremy Miner and Paul explore how game film analysis, what elite athletes have used for decades, can now be applied to sales calls through AI-powered feedback, creating personalized coaching at scale.   See why most sales training fails (forgotten within weeks), how asking better questions changes entire conversations, and what happens when Jeremy Miner's NEPQ methodology gets cloned through AI to coach hundreds of thousands of salespeople simultaneously. Walk away understanding how to turn every call into a learning moment, why humans must remain at the center of AI design, and how communication skills shape not just sales outcomes but entire societies.   Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (01:13) From CD-ROMs to Building Ancestry (05:17) Shifting from Past to Future (08:01) Born with Talents, Built Through Skills (13:33) Why Jeremy and Paul Partnered (19:10) What ChatGPT Can't Do That 7Q AI Can (26:16) Speaking Things Into Existence (33:06) Why AI Creates More Jobs Than It Destroys (37:33) Building Movements That Outlast You (45:28) Where to Get AI-Powered Sales Coaching

Don't Hide What God Gave YouWhat happens when fear makes you bury the gifts God gave you? In this episode, we break down Jesus' Parable of the Talents and why faithfulness—not perfection—is what matters to God.We're diving into the fourth of Jesus' five parables about His second coming, and this one hits different. It's about a master who entrusts his servants with investments before going on a journey. Two servants double what they're given. One servant? He digs a hole and hides it out of fear.Jesus isn't calling you to be perfect. He's calling you to be faithful with what He's given you—whether that's hospitality, preaching, serving, or loving the people everyone else ignores. This parable shows us that slothfulness isn't just laziness—it's spiritual passivity. It's wanting God without the work. It's playing it safe when Christ never called us to be safe.In this episode:* Why faithfulness matters more than the size of your gift* What it means to be a “good and faithful slave”* How fear and passivity can bury your God-given talents* Why Jesus took the place of the “worthless slave” on the cross* How to identify and invest the gifts God has given YOUAfter the Amen Question: What are the talents God has given you that you need to be more responsible with?

As a part of disability Shabbat, IKAR member Matan Koch explores the ideas of openness, welcoming and access in the context of embracing each person's unique reflection of the divine. He takes us on a journey from Talmudic thought to present-day actions, exhorting us to be the kind of community where all of the reflections of the divine are known, and seen.

Don't Hide What God Gave YouWhat happens when fear makes you bury the gifts God gave you? In this episode, we break down Jesus' Parable of the Talents and why faithfulness—not perfection—is what matters to God.We're diving into the fourth of Jesus' five parables about His second coming, and this one hits different. It's about a master who entrusts his servants with investments before going on a journey. Two servants double what they're given. One servant? He digs a hole and hides it out of fear.Jesus isn't calling you to be perfect. He's calling you to be faithful with what He's given you—whether that's hospitality, preaching, serving, or loving the people everyone else ignores. This parable shows us that slothfulness isn't just laziness—it's spiritual passivity. It's wanting God without the work.
