CURRENT SERMON SERIES: In God's Presence: Three Ways to Pray October 19 – November 2 Prayer is more than words—it's a way of being in active relationship with the divine. This three-week sermon series explores the prayer practices of petition, confession, and intercession through a view of God who is profoundly relational, responsive, and ever evolving with creation. Rather than approaching prayer as a way of changing God's mind about a pre-ordained outcome, we'll discover how these forms open us to deeper transformation, healing, and alignment with the flow of divine love and possibility. Each week will offer a new pathway into God's presence, helping us cultivate a more honest, compassionate, and empowering spirituality. Join us as we learn to pray not just to God, but with God, in a world alive with divine possibility.
How do you know what you know? Most of us have been confusing three fundamentally different forms of knowing our entire lives: instinct (the body's survival mechanism), intellect (the mind's analytical tool), and intuition (direct knowing that bypasses thought). Understanding the difference isn't just philosophical, it has immediate implications for every decision you make, from choosing a career path to knowing when to trust someone. On this week's episode of Musings From The Mount, Diana Lang joins the conversation and begins the discussions with an exploration about instinct, that primal gut-level response designed to keep us alive in the face of immediate physical danger and one problem becomes immediately apparent, our instincts haven't evolved as fast as our environment. Our bodies trigger the same fight-or-flight response for a difficult conversation that it would for a predator, which can then lead to chronic stress and reactive decisions. Learning when instinct serves you versus when it hijacks you has become an essential tool for navigating modern life without being ruled by ancient survival programming. We also examine the intellect, a powerful but limited tool. It can analyze, categorize, and problem-solve brilliantly, but it can only rearrange information it already has. The thinking mind is like a computer working with existing data; it cannot access anything genuinely new, so we explore how intellect can itself become a defense mechanism, keeping us in our heads to avoid feeling what is actually happening in our bodies or hearts. This is why breakthrough insights never come from more thinking, they arrive through intuition. This episode offers practical ways to recognize real intuition: it has a quality of quiet certainty, doesn't require justification or mental gymnastics, and often surprises the thinking mind with information it couldn't have logically derived. Intuition is framed as "a download of complete knowing" that arrives whole rather than being built piece by piece and we discuss the key challenge? You can't hear intuition's whisper when you're constantly in motion or consumed by mental chatter. This is an invitation to examine your own decision-making and discover which form of knowing you're actually using and whether it's the right one for the situation at hand.

Life As It Was Meant To Be | Week 7: Three Ways To Live The Lord's Prayer // Ryland Walter // When you need an answer to a problem in your life, where do you look? To whom or what do you turn? You may have heard the Lord's prayer, but do you understand what the words truly mean? Have you uncovered God's wisdom from it? Many have overlooked the profound truths offered in these phrases.In this Spiritual Growth Campaign, we will explore the sacred wisdom of the Lord's Prayer, line-by-line, to teach us what we stand to gain from being connected to God. The Lord's Prayer takes only 30 seconds to pray, but Jesus lived this prayer. It's a pattern for prayer and a pattern for life. When you understand The Lord's Prayer, you will understand Life As It Was Meant To Be.

EPISODE 3 – THE AI TRUST TEST What if I told you that you're already being evaluated by AI—and you don't even know it?I'm Dr. Tamara Patzer, and I help you get found by AI, trusted by humans, and paid like a leader.Today, we're diving into something critical—something I call the AI Trust Test. Because here's the truth: AI isn't just searching anymore, it's deciding. It's deciding who to recommend, who to suggest, who to ignore, and who to feature as the expert. And if you're not passing the AI Trust Test… you're invisible.So what exactly is this test? It's invisible—but powerful. AI systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Siri, and Alexa scan the web for structured signals of trust: online directories, press releases, podcasts, videos, bios, reviews, social posts—and they build a profile of you, or your lack thereof.Here are three AI Trust Triggers you need right now:Entity Anchors – Your name, business, and website must appear in trusted sources like Google Business Profiles, Crunchbase, or industry directories.Authority Citations – Being quoted in press releases, interviewed on podcasts, and featured in articles helps AI connect you to your niche.Content Signals – Your content needs to be consistent, high-quality, and aligned with your expertise. Blogs, videos, and posts act like digital breadcrumbs.Failing the AI Trust Test means being skipped over—by both machines and real people. But here's the great news… You can fix it.You don't need to master every platform. You just need the right Authority Signals in the right places.In upcoming episodes, we'll talk about press release power, directory dominance, podcast positioning, and how to build an entire ecosystem that makes AI and humans say: “This is the one.”If you got value today, leave me a comment or review. DM me the word TRUST and I'll send you my free AI Visibility Checklist. Let's fix your discoverability. Let's make you AI-suggestible.I'm Dr. Tamara Patzer. Until next time—stay visible, valuable, and in demand. Text at 941-421-6563Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/the-ai-trust-test-with-dr-tamara-patzer-and-three-ways-to-trigger-trust-today

This week, Dr. Joel Kahn explores three advanced methods for cleansing the blood. He begins with apheresis, a medical technique that removes LDL cholesterol and Lipoprotein(a), and discusses new developments in access to this life-saving therapy. Dr. Kahn also breaks down two emerging treatments gaining popularity—EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation) and TPE (Therapeutic Plasma Exchange)—and how they may play a role in improving cardiovascular health. In the second half, Dr. Kahn turns to the topic of cholesterol-lowering therapies like statins, emphasizing how long-term use and individualized risk assessment matter more than online debates suggest. He highlights tools such as the Mayo Clinic Statin Decision Aid, PREVENT calculator, and Astro-CHARM calculator to help patients and practitioners make informed decisions.

In this conversation, Adam Roach and Jess Webber discuss the importance of clarity in coaching language, emphasizing that clients are more likely to buy based on clear outcomes rather than inspirational or fluffy language. They outline three key strategies for coaches: calling out fluff, creating confidence through clarity, and shifting from inspirational to transformational language. The discussion highlights the need for coaches to articulate their offers clearly to attract clients effectively.TakeawaysMost coaches use fluffy language that doesn't sell.Clients buy clarity, not inspiration.Aspirational statements make coaches feel good but don't convert.Strong offers are based on a clear person, problem, and payoff.Clarity in offers boosts confidence for both coaches and clients.Transformational language is more effective than inspirational language.Coaches should focus on the outcomes they provide to clients.Fluff in coaching language can lead to confusion and lost sales.Clear, measurable outcomes attract the right clients.Coaches should align their offers with the needs of their target audience.Chapters00:00 The Fluff Factor in Coaching Language02:59 Clarity Over Inspiration05:53 Building Strong Offers08:46 Transformational Language in Coaching11:46 The Power of Outcomes14:53 Confidence Through Clarity
In this talk, Jogen reflects on Maezumi Roshi's teaching that the greatest gift we can give or receive is freedom from fear. He explores how so much of our striving—whether for health, wealth, status, or security—is rooted in fear, and offers three simple but profound practices to reduce its grip. By cultivating the willingness to fully experience life, learning to see thoughts as just thoughts, and embodying a kind and respectful heart, we loosen fear's hold and open to trust in mind and heart. These teachings invite us into greater freedom, self-respect, and the joy of being. This talk was given at Heart of Wisdom on August 13th, 2025. ★ Support this podcast ★

Keywords purpose, fulfillment, meaning, personal growth, emotional triggers, curiosity, self-reflection, life transitions, passion projects, intentional living Summary In this episode, Jessica and Kelly discuss the concept of purpose as a practice rather than a destination. They explore how to reconnect with one's purpose through reflection on joyful moments, identifying emotional triggers, and following curiosity. The conversation emphasizes that true purpose is rooted in meaning and fulfillment, rather than productivity, and encourages listeners to live with intention and explore their passions. Takeaways Purpose is built, not found. True purpose is about meaning, not productivity. Reflect on joyful moments to reconnect with purpose. Identify what breaks your heart to find your passion. Follow curiosity to discover new interests. Passion doesn't have to be tied to your job. Reclaiming purpose involves many small decisions. Living with intention is key to fulfillment. Explore side projects that ignite your passion. Consider what you loved to do as a child. Sound bites "Follow curiosity, not pressure." "Passion doesn't need to be productive."

In this episode, Adam Roach and Jess Webber delve into the pervasive issue of distraction and its impact on focus and productivity. They discuss the concept of 'diluted focus' and how multitasking is often a disguise for distraction rather than a productive strategy. The discussion highlights the dopamine trap that many individuals, especially entrepreneurs, fall into, leading them to seek constant novelty and distraction. Adam and Jess propose practical strategies for overcoming these challenges, including creating short-term filters for success and embracing the joy of missing out on distractions. They emphasize the importance of commitment and intentionality in achieving goals and maintaining focus.TakeawaysMost people have a focus problem, not a time problem.Diluted focus leads to diluted results.Multitasking is a myth; it's just distraction.Dopamine hits can lead to addiction to distractions.Creating a short-term filter can help maintain focus.Joy of missing out (JOMO) is better than fear of missing out (FOMO).Commitment means doing what you said you would do.Distractions steal your freedom and joy.Challenge yourself to stay focused for short periods.Be present where your feet are planted.Chapters00:00 Chasing Shiny Objects: The Focus Problem04:56 The Myth of Multitasking09:33 Understanding the Dopamine Trap16:26 Creating a Short-Term Filter for Success22:14 Detaching from Distractions and Finding Joy

The emphasis is on the need for professionals to advocate for themselves by effectively communicating their value during one-on-one meetings with their bosses, seizing unexpected opportunities, and weaving their accomplishments into everyday conversations. The episode provides actionable insights for listeners to enhance their visibility and career advancement. Takeaways Visibility is about showing your value and impact. One-on-ones with your boss should be strategic. Share the most important information first in meetings. Don't assume your boss knows what you're doing. Take advantage of leadership opportunities within your organization. Be prepared for unexpected opportunities that arise. Weave your accomplishments into conversations naturally. Advocate for yourself and your team consistently. Use status reports to supplement important discussions. Always look for ways to share your value with others.

The blog postAccurate data is essential in any system–for diagnosing problems, guiding decisions, and driving improvement. But when leaders react poorly to uncomfortable data, the message often gets buried, and the system loses its ability to learn.When the truth becomes dangerous to report, people stop sharing it. That's when improvement stops too.Just recently, a senior government statistician in the U.S. was abruptly dismissed following the release of a disappointing jobs report. The data was valid. The revisions were routine. But the report didn't support the preferred narrative. So the messenger was blamed.

Donald Trump seems to move from one unpopular catastrophe to another. With people still in the streets protesting his military take-over of Washington, D.C., his disgraceful capitulation to Putin in Alaska prompted even deeper disapproval, with a new Pew poll showing his numbers steadily worsening. Meanwhile, in Texas, state Democrats have returned, enabling Republicans to restart their gerrymandering effort, another facet in Trump's effort to manipulate the upcoming midterms to preserve his hold on power.BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/maddowblog.msnbc.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/maddow.msnbc.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/maddowshow/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@maddowshow

Revelation 5:8-14 (ESV) The Scroll and the Lamb8 And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9 And they sang a new song, saying,“Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals,for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation,10 and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.”11 Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice,“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,to receive power and wealth and wisdom and mightand honor and glory and blessing!”13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lambbe blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.#DanielBatarseh #Revelation #BookofRevelation #BibleStudy #mbchicago #mbcchicago #Bible #versebyverse #sermon #sermons #sermononline #bookofrevelation #bookofrevelations #revelation #revelations #newtestament #scripture #verses #lessons #church #chicago #livechurch #churchlive #chicagochurch #chicagochurches #prophecy #prophetic #jesus #jesuschrist
Grace Bell, facilitator of The Work, assists people to identify and question their stressful ways of looking at life. She offers Year of Inquiry, a vibrant membership community of inquirers Sept-June each year. Learn more about Year of Inquiry at https://workwithgrace.com/year-of-inquiry Grace also has a special love for those suffering from eating issues including disordered eating (disordered thinking) of all kinds--having suffered from this behavior and thought/feeling process herself and finding an unshakable peace within around eating, food, health and behaviors with eating. Grace works with all kinds of compulsions, habits and addictions as they are all the same thing: a pull to some behavior, substance or activity in order to help us with our stressful feelings and thoughts. As Byron Katie offers us (founder of The Work); when we believe what we think, it creates unnecessary suffering. When we question what we think, we feel lighter and less serious about what is. We even begin to laugh. We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving. In the public sessions on this youtube channel, we have all-group inquiry sessions called First Friday Inquiry, we have interviews with practitioners of The Work, we have Eating Peace videos (on the eating peace playlist) and we have individual sessions in The Work by courageous people willing to be recorded for Peace Talk podcast and this channel. Thanks to everyone involved in what is shared here on this channel, as it is great service to others in the world who find their way here and who are curious about life without "believing" thought all the time. In all-group sessions and solo sessions, we begin with a judgment...and move into the four questions and turnarounds. Willingness to be real and honest with your thinking is the first powerful step in The Work. No one ever has to share when attending Friday Inquiry, and thank you when you do.
