A rock star, atheist, Marxist, world-class theologian, African missionary, and a Greek Orthodox Bishop all in one lifetime? Hank Hanegraaff is joined by Bishop Themi—a personal hero of his and a beacon of hope and inspiration to millions of Christians around the globe. Bishop Themi earned degrees in theology, languages, and Biblical studies at some of the most prestigious universities in America and became a distinguished scholar—however in the 90s Themi questioned his life's direction. Was he serving Christ best as a top-tier academic? A series of events led him to follow another path, serving the poor in his native Africa. Themi founded the Holy Orthodox Mission in Freetown, Sierra Leone where he has battled Ebola and foes, both earthly and spiritual, to feed, educate and offer the love of Christ to thousands of West African people.opics discussed include: How Bishop Themi's roots as a white man born in Africa formed his nomadic DNA and understanding of not feeling completely welcome (3:15); the impact that the British Invasion and the Beatles had on Bishop Themi becoming a Marxist (9:15); the guru and the cross—Bishop Themi's first steps towards Christianity (19:00); mystical experiences that reveal the reality of Jesus Christ (25:00); how reading the Bible led to Bishop Themi being born again, selling everything and giving it to the poor to follow Christ (29:30); Bishop Themi was a serious academic until he was convicted that he must do missions due to the impact of Mother Teresa (34:00); how Bishop Themi's belief on missions led him to Africa (40:05); the impact of HIV/AIDS on Bishop Themi's first mission in Kenya (43:15); why Bishop Themi thinks the experience in Sierra Leone with Ebola was worse than HIV/AIDS (45:25); what does it truly mean to live in poverty? (48:30); what is Paradise 4 Kids? (51:25); the methodology of indigenous missions (54:20); the impact of Bishop Themi on the life of Hank Hanegraaff (59:35); what we do with our lives and resources matters for all eternity—we will be judged (1:06:00); sharing among the poor is not unusual—the poor tend to practice generosity beyond their means (1:10:25); the simple truth is that the more you give the more you will receive (1:12:20); Bishop Themi owns nothing—he has surrendered completely in confidence to God (1:14:20); how can we teach our children how fortunate they are? (1:16:40); how can people support Bishop Themi's mission? (1:18:40); Christ identified with the suffering and we must follow Christ by imitating Him (1:21:00).

Opposition parties are demanding Justice Minister Thembi Simelane's suspension or resignation over a questionable VBS-linked loan. Simelane faces the ANC's integrity commission to explain a R575,600 loan from the defunct VBS Mutual Bank. Critics argue her position as Justice Minister gives her control over the National Prosecuting Authority, NPA potentially allowing her to thwart investigations into her own conduct.

In a state where shock-and-awe snowmaking is a baseline operational requirement, the mountain's system is underwhelming and bogged down by antiquated equipment. The lower-mountain terrain – Blue Knob's best – opens sporadically, sometimes remaining mysteriously shuttered after heavy local snows. The website at one time seemed determined to set the world record for the most exclamation points in a single place. They may have succeeded (this has since been cleaned up):I've always tried to couch these critiques in a but-damn-if-only context, because Blue Knob, considered purely as a ski area, is an absolute killer. It needs what any Pennsylvania ski area needs – modern, efficient, variable-weather-capable, overwhelming snowmaking and killer grooming. No one, in this temperamental state of freeze-thaws and frequent winter rains, can hope to survive long term without those things. So what's the holdup?My goal with The Storm is to be incisive but fair. Everyone deserves a chance to respond to critiques, and offering them that opportunity is a tenant of good journalism. But because this is a high-volume, high-frequency operation, and because my beat covers hundreds of ski areas, I'm not always able to gather reactions to every post in the moment. I counterbalance that reality with this: every ski area's story is a long-term, ongoing one. What they mess up today, they may get right tomorrow. And reality, while inarguable, does not always capture intentions. Eventually, I need to gather and share their perspective.And so it was Blue Knob's turn to talk. And I challenge you to find a more good-natured and nicer group of folks anywhere. I went off format with this one, hosting four people instead of the usual one (I've done multiples a few times before, with Plattekill, West Mountain, Bousquet, Boyne Mountain, and Big Sky). The group chat was Blue Knob's idea, and frankly I loved it. It's not easy to run a ski area in 2024 in the State of Pennsylvania, and it's especially not easy to run this ski area, for reasons I outline below. And while Blue Knob has been slower to get to the future than its competitors, I believe they're at least walking in that direction.What we talked about“This was probably one of our worst seasons”; ownership; this doesn't feel like PA; former owner Dick Gauthier's legacy; reminiscing on the “crazy fun” of the bygone community atop the ski hill; Blue Knob's history as an Air Force station and how the mountain became a ski area; Blue Knob's interesting lease arrangement with the state; the remarkable evolution of Seven Springs and how those lessons could fuel Blue Knob's growth; competing against Vail's trio of nearby mountains; should Vail be allowed to own eight ski areas in one state?; Indy Pass sales limits; Indy Pass as customer-acquisition tool; could Blue Knob ever upgrade its top-to-bottom doubles to a high-speed quad?; how one triple chair multiplied into two; why Blue Knob built a mile-long lift and almost immediately shortened it; how Wolf Creek is “like Blue Knob”; beginner lifts; the best ski terrain in Pennsylvania; why Mine Shaft and Boneyard Glades disappeared from Blue Knob's trailmap, and whether they could ever return; unmarked glades; Blue Knob's unique microclimate and how that impacts snowmaking; why the mountain isn't open top-to-bottom more and why it's important to change that; PA snowmaking and how Blue Knob can catch up; that wild access road and what could be done to improve it; and the surprising amount of housing on Blue Knob's slopes. Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewSo here's something that's absolutely stupid:That's southeastern Pennsylvania. Vail Resorts operates all of the ski areas in blue font. Ski areas in red are independent. Tussey, a local bump serving State College and its armies of sad co-eds who need a distraction because their football team can't beat Michigan, is not really relevant here. Blue Knob is basically surrounded by ski areas that all draw on the same well of out-of-state corporate resources and are stapled to the gumball-machine-priced Epic Pass. If this were a military map, we'd all say, “Yeah they're fucked.” Blue Knob is Berlin in 1945, with U.S. forces closing in from the west and the Russians driving from the east. There's no way they're winning this war.How did this happen? Which bureaucrat in sub-basement 17 of Justice Department HQ in D.C. looked at Vail's 2021 deal to acquire Seven Springs, Hidden Valley, and Laurel and said, “Cool”? This was just two years after Vail had picked up Whitetail, Liberty, and Roundtop, along with Jack Frost and Big Boulder in eastern Pennsylvania, in the Peak Resorts acquisition. How does allowing one company to acquire eight of the 22 public ski resorts in one state not violate some antitrust statute? Especially when six of them essentially surround one independent competitor.I don't know. When a similar situation materialized in Colorado in 1997, Justice said, “No, Vail Resorts, you can not buy Keystone and Breckenridge and Arapahoe Basin from this dog food company. Sell one.” And so A-Basin went to a real estate conglomerate out of Toronto, which gut-renovated the mountain and then flipped it, earlier this year, to Vail arch-frenemy Alterra. And an independent ski area operator told me that, at some point during this ongoing sales process, the Justice Department reached out to ask them if they were OK with Alterra – which already operates Winter Park, owns Steamboat, and has wrapped Copper, Eldora, and the four Aspen mountains into its Ikon Pass – owning A-Basin (which has been on the Ikon Pass since 2019). Justice made no such phone call, Blue Knob officials tell me on this podcast, when Vail was purchasing the Seven Springs resorts.This is where Colorad-Bro reminds me that Pennsylvania skiing is nothing compared to Colorado. And yes, Colorado is unquestionably the epicenter of American skiing, home to some of our most iconic resorts and responsible for approximately one in four U.S. skier visits each winter. But where do you suppose all those skiers come from? Not solely from Colorado, ranked 21st by U.S. population with just 5.9 million residents. Pennsylvania, with Philly and Pittsburgh and dozens of mid-sized cities in-between, ranks fifth in the nation by population, with nearly 13 million people. And with cold winters, ski areas near every large city, and some of the best snowmaking systems on the planet, PA is a skier printing press, responsible not just for millions of in-state skier visits annually, but for minting skiers that drive the loaded U-Haul west so they can brag about being Summit County locals five minutes after signing their lease. That one company controls more than one-third of the ski areas – which, combined, certainly account for more than half of the state's skier visits – strikes me as unfair in a nation that supposedly maintains robust antitrust laws.But whatever. We're locked in here. Vail Resorts is not Ticketmaster, and no one is coming to dismantle this siege. Blue Knob is surrounded. And it's worse than it looks on this map, which does not illuminate that Blue Knob sits in a vast wilderness, far from most population centers, and that all of Vail's resorts scoop up skiers flowing west-northwest from Philadelphia/Baltimore/D.C. and east from Pittsburgh. So how is Blue Knob not completely screwed? Answering that question was basically the point of this podcast. The mountain's best argument for continued existence in the maw of this Epic Pass blitzkrieg is that Blue Knob is a better pure ski area than any of the six Vail mountains that surround it (see trailmap above). The terrain is, in fact, the best in the State of Pennsylvania, and arguably in the entire Mid-Atlantic (sorry Elk Mountain partisans, but that ski area, fine as it is, is locked out of the conversation as long as they maintain that stupid tree-skiing ban). But this fact of mountain superiority is no guarantee of long-term resilience, because the truth is that Blue Knob has often, in recent years, been unable to open top to bottom, running only the upper-mountain triple chairs and leaving the best terrain out of reach.They have to fix that. And they know it. But this is a feisty mountain in a devilish microclimate with some antiquated infrastructure and a beast of an access road. Nothing about this renovation has been, or likely will be, fast or easy.But it can be done. Blue Knob can survive. I believe it after hosting the team on this podcast. Maybe you will too once you hear it.What I got wrong* When describing the trail network, I said that the runs were cut “across the fall line” in a really logical way – I meant, of course, to say they were cut down the fall line.* I said that I thought the plants that sprouted between the trees in the mothballed Mine Shaft and Boneyard Glades were positioned “to keep people out.” It's more likely, however, based upon what the crew told us, that those plants are intended to control the erosion that shuttered the glades several years ago.* I mentioned “six-packs going up in the Poconos at the KSL-owned mountains.” To clarify: those would be Camelback and Blue Mountain, which each added six-packs in 2022, one year before joining the Ikon Pass.* I also said that high-speed lifts were “becoming the standard” in Pennsylvania. That isn't quite accurate, as a follow-up inventory clarified. The state is home to just nine high-speed lifts, concentrated at five ski areas. So yeah, not exactly taking over Brah.* I intimated that Blue Knob shortened the Beginners CTEC triple, built in 1983, and stood up the Expressway triple in 1985 with some of the commandeered parts. This does not appear to be the case, as the longer Beginners lift and Expressway co-exist on several vintage trailmaps, including the one below from circa 1989. The longer lift continues to appear on Blue Knob trailmaps through the mid-1990s, but at some point, the resort shortened the lift by thousands of linear feet. We discuss why in the pod.Why you should ski Blue KnobIf we took every mountain, fully open, with bomber conditions, I would rank Blue Knob as one of the best small- to mid-sized ski areas in the Northeast. From a rough-and-tumble terrain perspective, it's right there with Berkshire East, Plattekill, Hickory, Black Mountain of Maine, Ragged, Black Mountain (New Hampshire), Bolton Valley, and Magic Mountain. But with its Pennsylvania address, it never makes that list.It should. This is a serious mountain, with serious terrain that will thrill and challenge any skier. Each trail is distinct and memorable, with quirk and character. Even the groomers are interesting, winding nearly 1,100 vertical feet through the trees, dipping and banking, crisscrossing one another and the lifts above. Lower Shortway, a steep and narrow bumper cut along a powerline, may be my favorite trail in Pennsylvania. Or maybe it's Ditch Glades, a natural halfpipe rolling below Stembogan Bowl. Or maybe it's the unmarked trees of East Wall Traverse down to the marked East Wall Glades. Or maybe it's Lower Extrovert, a wide but ungroomed and mostly unskied trail where I found wind-blown pow at 3 p.m. Every trail is playful and punchy, and they are numerous enough that it's difficult to ski them all in a single day.Which of course takes us to the reality of skiing Blue Knob, which is that the ski area's workhorse top-to-bottom lift is the 61-year-old Route 66 double chair. The lift is gorgeous and charming, trenched through the forest on a narrow and picturesque wilderness line (until the mid-station, when the view suddenly shifts to that of oddly gigantic houses strung along the hillside). While it runs fast for a fixed-grip lift, the ride is quite long (I didn't time it; I'll guess 10 to 12 minutes). It stops a lot because, well, Pennsylvania. There are a lot of novice skiers here. There is a mid-station that will drop expert skiers back at the top of the best terrain, but this portal, where beginners load to avoid the suicidal runs below, contributes to those frequent stops.And that's the reality when that lift is running, which it often is not. And that, again, is because the lower-mountain terrain is frequently closed. This is a point of frustration for locals and, I'll point out, for the mountain operators themselves. A half-open Blue Knob is not the same as, say, a half-open Sugarbush, where you'll still have access to lots of great terrain. A half-open Blue Knob is just the Expressway (Lift 4) triple chair (plus the beginner zone), mostly groomers, mostly greens and blues. It's OK, but it's not what we were promised on the trailmap.That operational inconsistency is why Blue Knob remains mostly unheralded by the sort of skiers who are most drawn to this newsletter – adventurous, curious, ready for a challenge – even though it is the perfect Storm mountain: raw and wild and secretive and full of guard dog energy. But if you're anywhere in the region, watch their Instagram account, which usually flashes the emergency lights when Route 66 spins. And go there when that happens. You're welcome.Podcast NotesOn crisscrossing chairliftsChairlifts are cool. Crisscrossing chairlifts are even cooler. Riding them always gives me the sense of being part of a giant Goldbergian machine. Check out the triple crossing over the doubles at Blue Knob (all videos by Stuart Winchester):Wiley mentions a similar setup at Attitash, where the Yankee Flyer high-speed quad crosses beneath the summit lift. Here's a pic I took of the old Summit Triple at the crossover junction in 2021:Vail Resorts replaced the triple with the Mountaineer high-speed quad this past winter. I intended to go visit the resort in early February, but then I got busy trying not to drop dead, so I cancelled that trip and don't have any pics of the new lift. Lift Blog made it there, because of course he did, and his pics show the crossover modified but intact. I did, however, discuss the new lift extensively with Attitash GM Brandon Swartz last November.I also snagged this rad footage of Whistler's new Fitzsimmons eight-pack flying beneath the Whistler Village Gondola in February:And the Porcupine triple passing beneath the Needles Gondola at Snowbasin in March:Oh, and Lift 2 passing beneath the lower Panorama Gondola at Mammoth:Brah I could do this all day. Here's Far East six-pack passing beneath the Red Dog sixer at Palisades Tahoe:Palisades' Base-to-Base Gondola actually passes over two chairlifts on its way over to Alpine Meadows: the Exhibition quad (foreground), and the KT-22 Express, visible in the distance:And what the hell, let's make it a party:On Blue Knob as Air Force baseIt's wild and wildly interesting that Blue Knob – one of the highest points in Pennsylvania – originally hosted an Air Force radar station. All the old buildings are visible in this undated photo. You can see the lifts carrying skiers on the left. Most of these buildings have since been demolished.On Ski Denton and LaurelThe State of Pennsylvania owns two ski areas: Laurel Mountain and Ski Denton (Blue Knob is located in a state park, and we discuss how that arrangement works in the podcast). Vail Resorts, of course, operates Laurel, which came packaged with Seven Springs. Denton hasn't spun the lifts in a decade. Late last year, a group called Denton Go won a bid to re-open and operate the ski area, with a mix of state and private investment.And it will need a lot of investment. Since this is a state park, it's open to anyone, and I hiked Denton in October 2022. The lifts – a double, a triple, and a Poma – are intact, but the triple is getting swallowed by fast-growing trees in one spot (top two photos):I'm no engineer, but these things are going to need a lot of work. The trail network hasn't grown over too much, and the base lodge looks pristine, the grasses around it mowed. Here's the old trailmap if you're curious:And here's the proposed upgrade blueprint:I connected briefly with the folks running Denton GO last fall, but never wrote a story on it. I'll check in with them soon for an update.On Herman Dupre and the evolution of Seven SpringsBender spent much of his career at Seven Springs, and we reminisce a bit about the Dupre family and the ski area's evolution into one of the finest mountains in the East. You can learn more about Seven Springs' history in my podcast conversation with the resort's current GM, Brett Cook, from last year.On Ski magazine's top 20 in the EastSki magazine – which is no longer a physical magazine but a collection of digital bits entrusted to the robots' care – has been publishing its reader resort rankings for decades. The list in the West is fairly static and predictable, filled largely with the Epkonic monsters you would expect (though Pow Mow won the top place this year). But the East list is always a bit more surprising. This year, for example, Mad River Glen and Smugglers' Notch claimed the top two spots. They're both excellent ski areas and personal favorites, with some of the most unique terrain in the country, but neither is on a megapass, and neither owns a high-speed lift, which is perhaps proof that the Colorado Machine hasn't swallowed our collective souls just yet.But the context in which we discuss the list is this: each year, three small ski areas punch their way into an Eastern lineup that's otherwise filled with monsters like Stowe and Sugarbush. Those are: Seven Springs; Holiday Valley, New York; and Wachusett, Massachusetts. These improbable ski centers all make the list because their owners (or former owners, in Seven Springs' case), worked for decades to transform small, backwater ski areas into major regional destinations.On Vail's Northeast Value Epic PassesThe most frightening factor in the abovementioned difficulties that Blue Knob faces in its cagefight with Vail is the introduction, in 2020, of Northeast-specific Epic Passes. There are two versions. The Northeast Value Pass grants passholders unlimited access to all eight Vail Resorts in Pennsylvania and all four in neighboring Ohio, which is a crucial feeder for the Seven Springs resorts. It also includes unlimited access to Vail's four New Hampshire resorts; unlimited access with holiday blackouts at Hunter, Okemo, and Mount Snow; and 10 non-holiday days at Stowe. And it's only $613 (early-bird price was $600):The second version is a midweek pass that includes all the same resorts, with five Stowe days, for just $459 ($450 early-bird):And you can also, of course, pick up an Epic ($1,004) or Epic Local ($746) pass, which still includes unlimited Pennsylvania access and adds everything in the West and in Europe.Blue Knob's season pass costs $465 ($429 early-bird), and is only good at Blue Knob. That's a very fair price, and skiers who acted early could have added an Indy Pass on at a pretty big discount. But Indy is off sale, and PA skiers weighing their pass options are going to find that Epic Pass awfully tempting.On comparisons to the liftline at MRGErf, I may have activated the Brobots at Mad Brother Glen when I compared the Route 66 liftline with the one beneath their precious single chair. But I mean it's not the worst comparison you could think of:Here's another Blue Knob shot that shows how low the chairs fly over the trail:And here's a video that gives a bit more perspective on Blue Knob's liftline:I don't know if I fully buy the comparison myself, but Blue Knob is the closest thing you'll find to MRG this far south.On Wolf Creek's old summit PomaHimes reminisced on her time working at Wolf Creek, Colorado, and the rattletrap Poma that would carry skiers up a 45-degree face to the summit. I was shocked to discover that the old lift is actually still there, running alongside the Treasure Stoke high-speed quad (the two lifts running parallel up the gut of the mountain). I have no idea how often it actually spins:Lift Blog has pics, and notes that the lift “very rarely operates for historic purposes.”On defunct gladesThe Mine Shaft and Bone Yard glades disappeared from Blue Knob's trailmap more than a decade ago, but this sign at the top of Lower Shortway still points toward them:Then there's this sign, a little ways down, where the Bone Yard Glade entrance used to be:And here are the glades, marked on a circa 2007 trailmap, between Deer Run and Lower Shortway:It would be rad if Blue Knob could resurrect these. We discuss the possibility on the podcast.On Blue Knob's base being higher than Killington'sSomewhat unbelievably, Blue Knob's 2,100-foot base elevation is higher than that of every ski area in New England save Saddleback, which launches from a 2,460-foot base. The five next highest are Bolton Valley (2,035 feet), Stowe (2,035), Cannon (2,034), Pico (2,000), and Waterville Valley (1,984). Blue Knob's Vail-owned neighbors would fit right into this group: Hidden Valley sits at 2,405 feet, Seven Springs at 2,240, and Laurel at 2,000. Head south and the bases get even higher: in West Virginia, Canaan Valley sits at 3,430 feet; Snowshoe at 3,348-foot base (skiers have to drive to 4,848, as this is an upside-down ski area); and Timberline at 3,268. But the real whoppers are in North Carolina: Beech Mountain sits at 4,675, Cataloochee at 4,660, Sugar Mountain at 4,100, and Hatley Pointe at 4,000. I probably should have made a chart, but damn it, I have to get this podcast out before I turn 90.On Blue Knob's antique snowmaking equipmentLook, I'm no snowmaking expert, but some of the stuff dotting Blue Knob's slopes looks like straight-up World War II surplus:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

I've been gone for almost 3 months here's what happened:I had 2 romantic relationships blow up around this time. They blew up because of me tbh and thinking I could manage both of themI tried to keep one of them alive but it was hurting me more than filling my cup upMy best friends mom got diagnosed with CancerMy mom and her man got married and I officiated the weddingSoccer season ended and I had 2 injuries I had to overcome from the seasonI started my newest certification for OPEX which was 2 hours every Tuesday for 12 weeks and will take me a year to finishMy dad's wife had been sick for the last 2 years and she just passed away a couple weeks agoI let go of the relationship I tried to keep alive and that to me felt like someone in my life just diedHealth complications I've been dealing with all year were persistent during this time of high stressMy business was slowly declining due to the fact that I was declining as a personThe reason I'm making this podcast is to share my struggles with you all so that you can relate and know you're not alone when shit gets hardBut also made this podcast to share how looking back at these last 3 months; a lot of the pain I am going through now could've been avoided if I was able to forgo the immediate pleasure that most of my decisions gave me.The 2 relationships blowing up is really what's taken me out for this long. I did tell both of these people I wasn't looking for anything serious and that I would be talking to other people but the way I handled it was poor and as a result it caused me more pain and griefThese relationships were great in their own ways but they weren't serving me and helping me become the man I want to be or help my business because if my personal life is in turmoil, as a solopreneur that turmoil will effect my business so I have to be hyper vigialant of who I let in and if you're out there trying to work on yourself then you need to be just as vigilant so you can avoid what I've been going throughThe reason I made this podcast is to share my fuckups but also to call out anyone listening who is trying to make improvements in your life and ask them “what remarkably stupid things am I doing right now that I could change, that I would be willing to change?”If you ask that question and really want to know the answer you'll get some answers you don't want to hear.I didn't want to let go of this relationship, its one I've had over the last 3 years of my life (with me from the beginning of my own coaching business) but in order to be the guy who can lead others, make 10k months consistently, be in quality shape, and have positive habits, rituals, friendships in my life then I had to let her go and its one of the hardest things I've doneI'm still hurting from it while recording and will probably still be hurting from it long after this podcast is posted but I'm making this now to share with you all that I'm choosing the harder choice now in life in the hopes that there is something better for me in the future and I urge you to do the sameI've had to do this along my journey plenty of times; first it was giving up junk foods, then it was stopping drinking, then it was putting the weed down, now its let the relationship go….For you it might be a different vice but ask yourself is this vice getting me closer to my goal or just helping me think its okay that I'm never going to reach my targets I've set out?If your vice is only for the latter then this podcast was made for you as a challenge to stop your self destruction for 60 days and then evaluate and see if you want it back in your life or not.I've already started, now it's your turn!
But when are you at your best?You have more than you've ever had before.But when are you at your best?You're traveling to exciting new places, meeting interesting people.But when are you at your best?You have freedom and new friends.But when are you at your best?Look back on your best seasons.Look at the people you want to be like.Look at the version of you that you want to be like. When are you at your best?When this is the question being asked, a breakthrough is never very far away. I have learned:I am at my best when I seek to understand more, not to have moreI am at my best when I choose to be happy about the hard workI am at best when I prioritize conversations with my wifeI am at my best when I go out of my way to be challengedI am at my best when I go out of my way to be around stronger people than meI am at my best when I eat and sleep wellI am at my best when I start my day earlyI am at my best when I start my day with truthI am at my best when I pray for wisdom and discernmentI am at my best when I seek to look at people as a loving, forgiving God would look at themI am at my best when I realize that my best is usually a few choices away.I believe you are, too.Suppose I'm right… What would those choices be?And… what are we waiting for?Cheers,BWDo you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

Every single night before I sleep it passes from my mind that I might be robbed in my home while sleeping.Context. I live in a very safe area in Australia. It is in suburbia just near the end of the city. People are eitherwell off with some nice mansions and the regular houses are just above median price.I live on the low end housing within the suburbThere are 0 homeless people around and I have not heard from anyone that I know that they have been robbed.I am early 30s and have 2 kids.Never been robbed (other than the gov)Financially stableHi Stef,Recently I visited some family with my wife and almost 2 years old son, and at some point and without provocation, his cousin, that is about my son age, lightly hit him in the head with his palm. Having raised my son peacefully, this is was his first time experiencing violence, so he just stared at me shocked not knowing how to react, after a minute he started crying, and we tried not to exaggerate and make peace between them.After this visit I felt puzzled and incompetent as a father. How I and my son should properly respond to this type of events, and how my son should react when he is bullied or attacked by other kids, this is excluding the obvious violent self-defense? This also raised up memories from when I was bullied in middle and high school, and I was equally unprepared to handle the situation, and just took the abuse. We had similar situations at the playgrounds, but unlike with family and public schooling there was an easy way out.I live in an Eastern European country, where public schooling is mandatory and homeschooling almost impossible, so the topic of handling bullies/violent adults weighs heavily on my mind. Just recently there was a news from my town with a preschooler that violently beat up some classmates and the modern type school didn't do much about it.I was also left wondering how seemingly normal and well off children become violent, especially in the case of my nephew, that from my knowledge is also raised peacefully? The only problem I see in his household, is that the father is blue-collar and leaves for extended periods of time as he works in a different country.Thanks,What do you think of the data that show that parenting seems to have minimal long-term impact on values transfer? Is it just parents doing a very poor job with their children, leading to “backfire” effect of rebellion, or values not taking? Or is there something to sociologists' conclusions that the median level of parenting (ie not abuse) doesn't affect behavior as much as we think?what is willpower?Why is it that some people are able to do things they don't like such as exercising or sticking with something unpleasant and others are not?In light of your recent call in show, "I'm Sorry I Called You Evil", how does it feel when listeners project their issues with their fathers onto you, whether for good or for ill? How do you feel if a listener feels something akin to a familial bond with you- that you embody the virtuous qualities of a wise, empathetic and engaged father figure that her own father did not manifest? Perhaps this is merely the mark of a parasocial dynamic, but in my mind at least, you have forged your own path through the wreckage of generational abuse and trauma and transcended to the level of Peaceful Parent Philosopher Archetype- you have become the best example of the father I wish I had. Thank you for being you, and for sharing your gifts with the world.Have you ever witnessed someone who had done evil become humble, make restitution, and truly turn thier life around and embrace virtue?Hey Stef, I hope you're doing well.In a previous livestream you mentioned about 60-70% of call-in requests are young guys who can't get their life together.I would love if you could give some general advice in regards to that because im one of themI'm 28 years old, I have an OK job, no GF, no friends, lots of savings and live with my parents and I hate it all. It's unbelievably enraging at times. I see no path forward, yet I do next to nothing to find one as well with the exception of my work with my therapist.The work I do with my Therapist helps a lot, I do believe in time I'll get my life sorted out with her. However, there's got to be something more I can do. I feel like I'm going insane.Thanks in advance,what is the truth about polygamy ? What happens when you have 6 wives and they make you choose dinner
The Humble and Contrite in Spirit 66Thus says theLord:Heaven is my throne,and the earth is my footstool;what is the house that you would build for me,and what is the place of my rest?2All these things my hand has made,and so all these things came to be,declares theLord.But this is the one to whom I will look:he who is humble and contrite in spiritand trembles at my word. 3He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man;he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck;he who presents a grain offering, like one who offerspig's blood;he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol.These have chosen their own ways,and their soul delights in their abominations;4I also will choose harsh treatment for themand bringtheir fears upon them,because when I called, no one answered,when I spoke, they did not listen;but they did what was evil in my eyesand chose that in which I did not delight. 5Hear the word of theLord,you who tremble at his word:Your brothers who hate youand cast you out for my name's sakehave said,Let theLordbe glorified,that we may see your joy;but it is they who shall be put to shame. 6The sound of an uproar from the city!A sound from the temple!The sound of theLord,rendering recompense to his enemies! Rejoice with Jerusalem 7Before she was in laborshe gave birth;before her pain came upon hershe delivered a son.8Who has heard such a thing?Who has seen such things?Shall a land be born in one day?Shall a nation be brought forth in one moment?Foras soon as Zion was in laborshe brought forth her children.9Shall I bring to the point of birth and not cause to bring forth?says theLord;shall I, who cause to bring forth, shut the womb?says your God. 10Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her,all you who love her;rejoice with her in joy,all you who mourn over her;11that you may nurse and be satisfiedfrom her consoling breast;that you may drink deeply with delightfrom her glorious abundance.[a] 12For thus says theLord:Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river,and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream;andyou shall nurse, you shall be carried upon her hip,and bounced upon her knees.13As one whom his mother comforts,soI will comfort you;you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.14You shall see, and your heart shall rejoice;your bones shall flourish like the grass;andthe hand of theLordshall be known to his servants,and he shall show his indignation against his enemies. Final Judgment and Glory of theLord 15For behold,theLordwill come in fire,andhis chariots like the whirlwind,to render his anger in fury,and his rebuke with flames of fire.16Forby firewill theLordenter into judgment,and by his sword, with all flesh;and those slain by theLordshall be many. 17Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go into the gardens, following one in the midst,eating pig's flesh and the abomination and mice, shall come to an end together, declares theLord. 18For I know[b]their works and their thoughts, and the time is coming[c]to gather all nations and tongues. And they shall come and shall see my glory,19and I will set a sign among them. And from themI will send survivors to the nations, toTarshish,Pul, andLud, who draw the bow, toTubal andJavan,to the coastlands far away,that have not heard my fame or seen my glory. And they shall declare my glory among the nations.20And they shall bring all your brothers from all the nationsas an offering to theLord, on horses and in chariots and in litters and on mules and on dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says theLord, just as the Israelites bring their grain offering in a clean vessel to the house of theLord.21And some of them also I will take for priests and for Levites, says theLord. 22For asthe new heavens and the new earththat I makeshall remain before me, says theLord,soshall your offspring and your name remain.23From new moon to new moon,and from Sabbath to Sabbath,all flesh shall come to worship before me,declares theLord. 24And they shall go out and look on the dead bodies of the men who have rebelled against me. Fortheir worm shall not die,their fire shall not be quenched, and they shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.
Join us for a dynamic chat with the exceptional leader for entrepreneurs, Shawn Shepheard. We traverse his fruitful career in the coaching sphere, focusing on his unique mission to assist family-owned business owners and their leadership teams in attaining the next level of growth without the burnout of working around the clock. We also unpack a revolutionary concept: the power of congregating your best clients in the same room. Shawn regales us with his experiences of his first virtual event and the profound impact of connecting with clients through technology. We also explore the challenges of sustaining potent connections beyond an event, along with the concept of nurturing a group that remains connected, supports each other, and fosters healthy competition. Listen as Shawn sheds light on his innovative approaches, such as the Leadership Olympics and One Month Challenge, which have proven successful in cultivating connection and engagement within his group. We also dissect the merits of competition in constructing a new culture, a common language, and encouraging a friendly rivalry that ultimately aids in retaining people who desire to stay connected to Shawn's world. You won't want to miss these insights from one of the industry's best.*The upcoach podcast is produced by Ventures FM.*Episode Quotes:The people he serves and how he helps themI work with family-owned business owners and their leadership teams, companies that have gotten to a certain point of growth, so not beginner companies or startups, and they get to a certain level of growth that you know, in the words of Marshall Goldsmith, what got them here will not get them to the next level, and they don't know what to do next. I help them get to the next level without working 24 seven. The magic in group connectionSo people love groups. When we meet live in person, there's a genuine human connection. When you break bread with people, the relationship changes; when they sit down and work together and get to know each other and their issues and their problems and their dreams and their challenges. My challenge was how do I make that last after one day or two days of the event because we've all gone to events, even small, intimate groups, and then nothing. You wake up on the third day, and it's kind of sad. I would walk by the meeting room in the hotel and feel like, oh my God, yesterday we were just laughing and joking. So, the question was always like, how do you keep that? Because it works. The magic of the group works. The accountability, the connection, the friendship, all of those things work. But how do we keep it going past the event? How do we make that lasting connection and real change? So number one, they want to be connected. Number two, they want to support each other in whatever dream and vision they have. And number three, they want to be held accountable by me and others. And number four, especially with my clients or with peak performers, they're super competitive. So, when I actually put them into a group that doesn't end at the end of two days, where they can go in and connect, where they can get updates with me, where they could share their wins which is the biggest thing, and they could share their challenges and see they're not alone between sessions, is powerful.A simple thing to implement in group dynamicsBring the people that love you and who you serve together. I hear a lot of coaches that are struggling reach out to me, and that's the number one thing I say. Do you do anything where you bring them together? Have they ever met each other? Let them meet each other. Bring them together and give them a challenge to rise to. Show Links:Shawn Shepheard's websiteShawn Shepheard on LinkedInShawn Shepheard on YouTube

Find out how Calgary is leading the agribusiness revolution: www.CalgaryAgbusiness.comSoiltech Wireless: https://www.soiltechwireless.com/Today's episode features Soiltech Wireless founder and CEO Ehsan Soltan. To try to summarize, Soiltech Wireless builds sensors and platforms that helps farmers and downstream partners produce more with less by optimizing inputs, organizing manpower, and collecting data from the farm and beyond more seamlessly. Ok, what does that mean? Their flagship product is a small round device that appears indestructible - that's my claim not their's - but it's meant to either be buried in soil or to be placed anywhere else that the data it collects can be useful such as a developing crop or a warehoused harvest. Soiltech has its own app for cell phones and tablets and its own web browser application for farmers to interact with the data, but they and have also integrated with other parties as well to make sure customers can access the data wherever makes the most sense for themI really enjoyed this interview in which Ehsan will share about the technology and the company, how they've relied on early farmer customers to really guide the development of the product and even become early investors, and some of his thoughts on agtech more generally. Coincidentally, I found out after reaching out to him for an interview that he and I live in the same town, so that was kind of a cool connection as well. Before Soiltech, Ehsan was living Taiwan and working in the telecommunications device manufacturing industry. But his wife was from Southern Idaho and her mother works for a potato packing house, so she was really the genesis for the whole venture to get started and off the ground.Special thanks to Jim Cupples for the guest recommendation.

The Poet The rhythm of the footsteps Nor the chatter will not Shake her now The steady beat of the kora Invites the words to string into sentences The warm drink is Her safety blanket When her mind is empty The food is a source of nourishment For her body A comfort and a luxury To afford the inner kind of nourishment That a regular landing of the page brings She is slowly becoming a part of the furniture In this busy cafe To be hardened by practice To be broken and built up by The admission of herself There is a poet in the cafe Now she is finally writing She has already arrived She is finally writingI actually don't know the first time I wrote poetry. I can only trace it back to a written poem I have in a book. When I went on a study abroad trip to the US for a semester back in 2013, someone gave me a present as part of a Secret Santa we were doing before Christmas. For my gift, I received a small square book. It had a soft blue cover to the front and back. Indented to the blue was a series of words repeating the same thing: “write.” So if you look at the cover, all it had was a series of “write, write, write, write, write….” And on the first page of the book, my secret Santa had also written:For all the places you'll goFor all the people you'll meetFor all the sights, sounds and feelsA place to forever store themI never wrote in that book until January 2017. It was a love poem.A few years forward, when I really began to have a regular practice of writing poetry, I realised how healing it was. What began as a way of expressing pain and confusion, turned into a myriad of poems talking about power and love. What continued were poems about having faith, trust and surrendering to the mysteries of life.The more I wrote, the more my mind opened. I could not un-do what happened. Soon enough I realised that the words I was writing down had power themselves. I realised that every word I wrote could not only be used as a way of acknowledging my experiences, but also they are influential in how I perceived my reality.If I wrote a word that did not hold the vastness of my experience, it didn't feel right. This is because the page isn't a person to whom I have a prior relationship with or a person with whom I felt all kinds of obligations. The page wasn't a person I was trying to impress. I had only myself to answer to on the page. And if I wrote something that didn't feel quite right, I knew it.Therefore, I had to be honest with myself. And the page forced me to be honest. It taught me to think wider and bigger.I also started to observe how my poems had an effect on me. Every word I used was an opportunity to either contract or expand. If I wrote a sad poem, it was intentional so I could allow feelings of pain to flow through me. But I couldn't end it there because I didn't want to feel sad forever.Therefore I would then write another poem. One of courage and understanding. One of holding the bigger questions to life's humanly experiences; of both limitations and possibilities.I knew that with every word I used, the power was in the tip of my pen to transform my perspective of the experience. I also realised that if I was feeling a certain way in life, I could not just think from a bias perspective.The rhyming words, the vocabulary, the structure of the poem questioned me to think bigger, to dream bigger, to feel bigger. I had realisations such as this one:“That if I had a particular way of experiencing and feeling and doing things in life, then the opposite way of experiencing, feeling and doing things must also be equally true.”Very simple but for me, it was profound. It meant that if I was feeling negative about something, I couldn't deny in my mind that the opposite must also be equally true- that a positive or even a peaceful outlook was possible, and equally real.At present, I am also shifting into something similar but slightly different. I spent the past few years writing about me. My life experiences, my emotions, my learnings. And somehow this is translating into my understanding of others.I am currently writing a book named, “The Faces We Hold and The Faces We Meet.” The book in itself is accidental- both in theme and name. However, it came about from realising that suddenly, I was not just observing myself but others around me.My close friends, my family members, even the strangers I meet! And there on the page, I write to capture a particular essence I observe, feel and meet. I capture a particular essence of who they are and sometimes also the entirety of who I feel and observe they seem to be.Of course, like with all art forms, everything is subjective. But like a photographer taking a snapshot of a moment, I write a poem to capture the moments of loved ones and strangers.Just as writing poetry taught me to see bigger, it is teaching me of the similarities in us all. Perhaps, more so than the differences. I see that, in a poem I write about my friend, my mother or a stranger, there lies an aspect in me that is the same, if not similar. I have met this particular “face” before and it is from this place that I write- both in observation and in intuition. This poetry is allowing me to understand people. Perhaps even people that I find unpleasant. Simply because I know from my past years of writing that a particular capture is also not the entirety of their character and essence.Last week, I wrote a newsletter about “The Selves We Meet” Coincidently, even before a friend of mine knew about my topic of choice and even before my understanding became whole, about why I wrote what I wrote, she came to visit me and we had a great conversation about this very topic.We shared honestly, as honest as I am to the page, about the pieces of ourselves that we find are opposite. Pieces that serve us in different ways but yet somehow we feel the struggle to unify, to strengthen a weaker characteristic and to stabilise our default thinking and behaviour. Something that served as a tug of war inside us.Suddenly, out of my friends mouth came this phrase that was so very enlightening, “I would call it the tug of peace.” And, right there and then, in that moment, instantaneously, my experience to my many selves came to a halt. There, indeed, was nothing but a feeling of understanding- of peace. Right there, in that moment, all I felt was perfection. Both in myself and in her. My relationship to myself changed. Right there, I realised that she indeed was perfect as she is. All was happening at the right time. She was unfolding, growing and evolving perfectly, like the perfectly sinuous lines of a drawing. And I also came to know that, indeed, so was I.This is how powerful language and words are. Turning to the page is spending time with ourselves and I am learning that in a world like ours, where we can give ourselves over to many external musings, poetry and art is where I converse with myself- the parts of me that I know and the parts of me that I do not yet know but am willing to take the time to find out. In turn, I create a belonging in this world that expand my perspective of this life and the people that inhabit this world. Everything is perfect. And there is a part to everyone, despite the seemingly chaotic mannerisms and their doing, is indeed perfect.Contemplations:How are you using language in your life?What practices allow you to connect with yourself?What is allowing you to have a bigger perspective and understanding of our human experience?

Life is Unfair! Let's Talk About It! | Life Coach Amber Lynn
In today's podcast we are learning what it means to hold space for other people. Lately a common theme I see with my clients is this sense of needing to make other people feel better. So often we take on the responsibility to make other people feel a certain way… Sometimes this comes from a place of love (we just want them to not feel the way they feel)Sometimes this comes from a place of control (it makes us feel so uncomfortable when they feel this way so we need to make it stop)Sometimes this comes from a place of selfishness ( we want to feel better about something so we need them to feel better)So I want to teach you all a few things People are allowed to feel their feelingsPeople are allowed all the time they want not just need but want to take to process their feelingsPeople are allowed to not always be happy, joyous, content, etc it's actually normal and apart of the human experiencePeople are allowed to have their thoughts about your actions even if you didn't do whatever the thing is on purpose, it is their thoughts that create their feelings, and they are allowed those, it is not your job to control or change their thoughtsOf course you can apologize when you “hurt” someone's feelings or cause negative emotions, but you have to be doing it for yourself- not for them to change how they are feeling because you are not in control of themI also want to take about what I learned from my Teacher's Brooke Castillo and Kara Loewentheil- they taught me the concept of the Manual When we have a miscommunication with someone- we hurt their feelings or they quote hurt ours we have an internal manual that states what the other person should doThey should forgive me right away or they should change how they feel immediatelyThey should “know where we are coming from”Whenever we are “shoulding” someone else we need to take a look at our thoughtsWhy is it so important that they change the way they feel right away? What are we making their feelings mean about us? What are we making it all mean? What we have to learn to do is hold space for other people, their thoughts, their feelings and their opinions:What this looks like is creating space outside of us. Picture yourself with a belt on with water bottle holders, and inside each of those water bottles is the space for someone else.

We bind and loose when we decide who Jesus is?V13-15This question right here is the most important question that anyone can ask in their life-Jesus comes to Peter- and says- what are people saying about me? Who do you say that I am?Now for many people- this question is not one that they ever answer- or should I say- they answer it without answering it by their choice to ignore who Jesus is-Now what interesting- is that these people around the region had an opinion of who Jesus was-John the Baptist? Elijah? Jeremiah? One of the prophets?And all of these thoughts about who Jesus was were centered around who he wasn'tAll of those mentioned were those who would announce the arrival of messiahJohn the Baptist preached repentance and returning to God- he taught baptism. He called out sinConsider John the baptist- They lived at the same time, related by blood, about the same age, had angel Gabriel announce their births, religious and political leaders didn't care for them, wanted them dead, people followed both of them,John the Baptist had a ministry and it was an important one- but it wasn't he ministry of JesusConsider Elijah- prophetic rebuke of Israel for idolatry that was pagan, baal worship, to turn back to God, Prophesying miracles of rain, oil and meal for a starving widow, raising a widows son from the dead, Message of promise to his followers before he departed, and then he left earth by a chariot of fire and did not dieConsider Jeremiah- Jeremiah prophesied God's judgement on Israel and Judah, He pleaded with Israel to repent, the ‘weeping prophet', Jeremiah was rejected by his own people- he told his own people that God was going to judge them for their sin and rejecting God, he had words of hope for Israel if they repented, that God would be with them-so the people at the time had a working knowledge of these three people-But here was the issue- they were trying to understand who Jesus was based on THEIR frame of reference instead of considering and listening to who Jesus actually was-This is human- this is what we do- we take a limited amount of information and make decisions about who we think people areWe do it on Social media, books, TV, movies, sports, we make sweeping statements about people on limited information- we don't even know them- “I know who Justin Beiber is”We even do it with people that we somewhat know- we have a short interaction with someone and think that we know them- See at church, read online, You think u know me from the pulpitIt took me 10 years of deep emotional and physical intimacy with my wife and after 10 years I thought I was just starting to get to know her- but someone sends one tweet and you know everything about themI don't know nothing about Russel Wilson that the news hasn't told me- I don't know what he eats, who his friends were in HS, what he's afraid of, what makes him happy, what his hobbies are.But today- still- based on Limited information- people declare who Jesus is-Good moral teacher, condemner, prophet, 2.

You all know how I like to talk about how life is 50/50. I believe that life is both black and white. Both, good and bad. Today I'm going to talk to you more about feeling the “bad” parts, but learning how to do so in a productive way. I want to challenge you to take a step back, and really question, when and why did it become a defining life goal to “be happy” all the time? Society has conditioned us to strive for this unrealistic expectation of getting to a point where we are always going to be feeling joy and just being happy. I'm going to walk you through this ideal that is in most of our heads and invite you to challenge your thinking on why this shouldn't be the goal, like I do with my clients.This can open you to a whole new way of thinking, where you can embrace both the bad and the good parts of life. I truly believe that one of the main points of life is learning to fully experience all of your emotions. So many people struggle to do this, it's time to embrace this change, and I can't wait to help show you how!In this episode, I'm sharing with you:Life is 50/50The ideal that our life goal should be to be “happy”It's time to start questioning itWe are going to feel all of the different feelings, but we need to learn how to feel them and experience them fullyGive yourself permission to feelThe benefit of allowing yourself to truly feel “bad” sometimesIt is very common to repress some of your emotions & avoid feeling themI help MANY of my clients on how to identify, feel, and process their emotionsToxic Negativity AND Toxic PositivityIt is okay to feel badFear of feeling badFear that it will slow down their manifestationResistance to experience those feelings in our bodyNot allowing these feelings and processing them, creates more resistance Thought work is important, BUT, just slapping a positive thought to mask a negative emotion is not helpfulCircumstances are neutralThoughts about circumstances are what create our feelingsWe are allowed to feel badWe are allowed to feel goodWe are allowed to choose our thoughtsProductive negativity vs. unproductive negativityMaking yourself feel bad, about feeling badJust because you feel bad, does not mean something has gone wrongGiving yourself a time limit to sit in negative emotions & to processHonoring both the good and bad feelingsYou can listen to this podcast on any platform or app you listen to podcasts, just search The Dream Builder Society!Click here to listen on Apple Podcasts Work with me:Book a Clarity Call: https://workwithrachel.as.me/schedule.phpEmail: hello@rachelolstad.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/rachel_olstad Website: rachelolstad.com Hosted on Acast.

Themi's Orthodox mission in Sierra Leone, where it is his work to preach the Gospel and meet the needs of the poor in the name of Jesus. Fr. Themi lived in the epicenter of the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone and joins Hank to give practical insight on dealing with the current Coronavirus pandemic along with biblical wisdom and the comfort found in Christ Jesus. Topics discussed include: How facing death led Hank Hanegraaff to wonder whether he has done enough for the poor and downtrodden in his life (7:30); Fr. Themi on taking a vow of poverty in Africa (9:20); what we can learn from previous epidemics as we face the Coronavirus Covid-19 (11:25); what does the Bible tell us about epidemics (pestilence)? (20:20); practical tips and advice from Fr. Themi that he learned from dealing with the Ebola outbreak (24:55); churches being shut down during this pandemic (26:00); Fr. Themi discusses his experiences of partaking of the Eucharist from a common cup during an outbreak (29:20); after losing connection with Fr. Themi due to technical difficulties, Hank goes on to discuss the power of partaking of the Eucharist (31:30); Hank finishes the podcast by discussing a conversation with his friend Elijah who exhorted Hank in the Holy Spirit to call the Body of Christ to “pray three times a day for 21 days in one accord” in response to the High Priestly Prayer of Jesus chronicled in John 17: “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.” (36:15).Listen to Hank's podcast and follow Hank off the grid where he is joined by some of the brightest minds discussing topics you care about.

This Hank Unplugged podcast features a wide-ranging conversation with Fr. Themi Adamopoulo. Fr. Themi is a former atheist, rock star turned missionary priest serving in one of the poorest countries in the world, Sierra Leon. As Fr.
