Send us Fan MailFinding Meaning Through Viktor Frankl, Chabad Chassidus & TherapyIn this episode of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah Krinsky and Eda Schottenstein, we interview Rabbi Daniel Schonbuch, a therapist and author of "Viktor Frankl and the Psychology of the Soul," about integrating CBT, marriage/family therapy, Viktor Frankl's logotherapy, and Chabad Chassidus. Schonbuch explains Frankl's core idea that humans are driven by meaning, not pleasure or power, and outlines three ways to find meaning: purposeful work, love/experience, and changing one's attitude when suffering can't be avoided. He describes creating TorahPsychology.org, holding Hakhel conferences inspired by the Rebbe's encouragement and a message sent to Frankl, and using a 30-day logotherapy workbook to reduce depression and anxiety. The conversation also covers shared meaning in marriage, rising divorce and estrangement, parenting tools (I=QR, connection/communication/reduced control), reflective listening, trauma and meaning, and incorporating Mitteler Rebbe  teachings and “Tracht gut vet zein gut.”EPISODE SPONSORSYakira BellaYakira Bella is a modest, beautiful clothing brand with dresses that look and feel like designer pieces — elegant, well-made, and made to move with you all night — without the designer price tag.

In this episode Gina offers listeners a series of questions they can ask themselves and suggestions they can implement during their experience of the discomfort associated with anxiety and panic.Turning to face the discomfort we are presented with during high anxiety moments can offer us the opportunity we are seeking to overcome the discomfort.Questions to ask oneself:What if there were more beyond that?What if distracting was keeping us in the loop and holding us back from the joy in life?What if chasing the desire to make the discomfort stop is actually keeping the pain and discomfort alive?What if the joy was in going through vs giving in to distraction and running away from discomfort?What if what we are looking for is in the opening of moving through the discomfort of what we think should be different than it is?Suggestions to implement:1.Slow down2.Get to neutral and be curious about the situation (take the personalization out of it ...look at it as if you were a researcher without an agenda)3.Remind yourself why you want to get to the other side of this situation and that it is joy that is found from going through the urge to fight flee or freeze when it is discomfort that you are dealing with not true danger.Stillpoint Fridays is my once-a-week Friday note — a slower, more personal reflection that's different from what I share on the podcast.If you'd like a quiet place to land as the week winds down, you can join here: http://eepurl.com/bR2F9P or on our website anxietycoachespodcast.com and sign up for the newsletter.Please visit our Sponsor Page to find all the links and codes for our awesome sponsors! https://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.com/sponsors/Website https://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.comJoin our community Group Coaching Join our Group Coaching Full or Mini Membership Program1:1 Coaching Learn more about our One-on-One CoachingIf you prefer to listen AD-FREE, try our Supercast premium access membership:Learn more about anxiety What is anxiety?Free Guided Meditation for Calming Your Anxious Mind 10-Minute Body-Scan Meditation for AnxietyQuote:A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor. -Franklin D.

We also note that people do not need a diagnosis to benefit from the discussion, since we all experience stress and discomfort in life.We focus on the idea of finding joy beyond discomfort. We repeat that discomfort is not dangerous, and we discuss the importance of letting that understanding move beyond logic and into the body. We explore the idea that distraction can keep us stuck in anxiety cycles, while going through the feeling can lead to freedom, peace, and joy.We distinguish between smaller fears that are easier to avoid and larger life events that cannot be avoided, such as loss, accident, or ending. We suggest experimenting with the smaller situations by choosing the opposite of the usual avoidance response and approaching them with curiosity and a sense of adventure.We then offer three practical suggestions: slow down, get to neutral and stay curious, and remind ourselves why we want to move through the situation. We emphasize noticing when we have gone back to old patterns without judgment, resetting, and trying again.We close by returning to the main questions about what lies beyond discomfort and how moving through it can open the way to what we are looking for.#Anxiety #AnxietyRelief #PanicAttacks #MentalHealth #EmotionalWellness #FindingJoy #Discomfort #CopingMechanisms #SelfImprovement #PersonalGrowth #Mindfulness #JournalPrompts #SelfCare #StressManagement #Vulnerability #OvercomingFear #MindsetShift #HealingJourney #SelfAwareness #Resilience #Podcast #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #Episode400 #Milestone #4MillionDownloads #Gratitude #CommunitySupport #Awareness #Presence #Acceptance #FeelYourFeelings #EmotionalRegulation #InnerStrength #PersonalTransformation #MentalClarity #SlowDown #BeCurious #NonJudgment #EmotionalFreedom #LifeLessons #Quotes #FranklinDRoosevelt #Aloha #Peace #WellBeing #MentalHealthAwareness #StressRelief #SelfReflection #Journaling #SelfDiscovery #GinaRyanSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The differences between an adult Sunday school class and one for kids are quite striking. A class for toddlers and preschoolers is rarely organized around the logic of a Bible passage, or even a lesson outline. Instead, lessons are structured by the classroom schedule and environment—by a basic routine and activity centers that are designed for play, music, the Bible story, and other games or crafts. How do we prepare children's lessons that are Christ-centered, biblically faithful, engaging for kids, and oriented towards the distinct ways that kids learn? This workshop will help you learn how to do just that. Jared Kennedy serves as an editor for The Gospel Coalition. He is also co-founder of Gospel-Centered Family and the author of books for children and families like Faith-Builder Catechism (New Growth Press, 2023), Keeping Your Children's Ministry on Mission (Crossway, 2022), and The Beginner's Gospel Story Bible (New Growth, 2017).

Teachers are a gift to the world, and the work they do each day is transformational. They leave special marks on our lives, and their work is impactful. Teachers need to be reminded how remarkable and appreciated they are; they need to be reminded that their work matters in so many ways. This episode is about the big and small ways we can show appreciation and the impact that those demonstrations have on educators. The truth is that all employees and leaders need to know they are appreciated, and we get so much out of demonstrating gratitude. In this episode, Dr. Janet Pilcher talks with one of the remarkable gifts that we call “teacher,” Brian Hostetler, an educator at Aspen Academy in Greenwood Village, Colorado. Listen as Dr. Pilcher and Mr. Hostetler discuss why gratitude matters, particularly to educators; how to show gratitude in big and small ways; and the impact that demonstrations of gratitude have. Recommended Resources:  Express Gratitude for Those on Your Journey, Three Ways to Show Gratitude  Follow Host Dr. Janet Pilcher on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/janetpilcher/ 

The midterms will definitively fall into one of three scenarios. Republicans began this Congress with a 220–215 House majority and hold the Senate 53–47. The environment is brutal for them: Trump's approval is at 33 percent, 70 percent disapprove of his handling of inflation and the cost of living, and the Democratic advantage on the generic ballot is getting close to eight points. But Republicans have a big money advantage, and the Senate map still requires almost everything to go right for Democrats.Scenario one is Ah, Nevertheless: Republicans retain both the House and Senate. They can lose two House seats and still hold 218, and a few candidate-specific wins, redrawn districts, or polling errors could get them there. The Senate is already a hard climb for Democrats, and all Trump has done his entire career is surprise people. But pretty much everything argues against this. The president's party usually loses seats in the midterms, Trump's approval and cost-of-living numbers stink on ice, and the battlefield is expanding into Republican territory. If the GOP holds both chambers, the story won't be that Trump beat the odds. It'll be that he is the odds. You don't bet against Big Donny T.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Scenario two is WINO — Win in Name Only: Democrats win the House by fewer than 10 seats while Republicans retain the Senate. This is, in my view, the most likely scenario as of August. Democrats get Speaker Hakeem Jeffries, control of the legislative agenda, committee gavels, subpoena power, and the ability to impeach by a simple majority. But with a tiny margin, every ideological bloc becomes a potential veto point. A handful of members could threaten Jeffries' speakership or stop legislation, and impeachment would be ceremonial without the Senate. Republicans keep the brake pedal while their senators become less Trump-aligned as his duck gets lamer. Democrats win the gavel, Republicans keep the brake pedal, and Jeffries ultimately pays the bill.Scenario three is My Blue Heaven: Democrats win the House by more than 10 seats and take the Senate, giving them at least 223 House seats and 51 Democratic-aligned senators. Trump's approval would need to remain in the low-to-mid-30s, affordability would need to dominate, and Democratic enthusiasm would have to survive the transition from the primaries to November. Progressives and the establishment would need to mend their fences and say, “Onward, onward, onward.” The Senate table would have to be almost entirely clean, including pickups in Alaska, Iowa, and Maine, plus a Michigan hold with Abdul El-Sayed.Ah, Nevertheless would mean Trump wriggled out of it yet again and avoided impeachment. WINO would produce a loud, hectic Democratic House that can investigate and pass bills but can't get much through the Senate. My Blue Heaven would give Democrats control of both chambers, allowing them to send legislation to Trump, multiply the investigations, and begin asking whether they have the votes to eliminate the filibuster.Those are the three paths in front of us: Republicans hold, the parties split power narrowly, or Democrats get their deliverance. It's a multi-versal ride that will only get clearer as we approach November.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:19 - Midterms Scenarios Revealed00:23:35 - Bernie Endorses Angie Nixon00:27:43 - National Debt00:31:01 - Iran00:35:16 - Kirk Bado on the Midterms01:06:41 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Pastor Aaron Prelock preaches on the warnings from Matthew 23 about how churches die.

What if everything you've been told about your "normal" thyroid labs is wrong? After years of struggling with unexplained weight gain and fatigue, I wish I had known then what I know now. My guest today, Dr. Amie Hornaman, experienced this firsthand. A former competitive bodybuilder, she suddenly found herself gaining weight and spiraling into a deep depression. Despite strict dieting and exercise, six different doctors told her she was "normal." It wasn't until she found a practitioner who looked beyond standard testing that she discovered the truth: she had Hashimoto's and was suffering from what she now calls "thyropause." In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Amie, a functional medicine practitioner and founder of the Institute for Thyroid and Hormone Optimization. We dive deep into what thyropause actually is, why standard thyroid testing is failing women, and what every woman in midlife needs to know about the connection between sex hormones and thyroid health. The medical establishment is finally catching up to what Dr. Amie and I have been saying for years. We cover everything from the science behind T2, the forgotten thyroid hormone, to why women are routinely dismissed by their doctors. You will learn what you can do right now to actually optimize your hormones, not just accept the symptoms of aging.

567. There's a voice in your head that has opinions about everything you do — and most of them are unkind. It replays your mistakes. It pre-edits your ideas before you even say them. It tells you that you're too much, not enough, or both at once. This week Dr. Judy Ho unpacks the inner critic: where it comes from, why it's louder for some people than others, what the neuroscience says about why it's so hard to shut up — and three evidence-based tools to change your relationship with it for good.Have a mental health question?

What if everything you've been told about detoxifying your body is backward? After years of trying every functional medicine protocol, I wish I had known then what I know now about therapeutic plasma exchange. My journey with plasma exchange started a few months ago when I was looking for ways to address my own toxic burden. I was immediately presented with several options, including various binders, saunas, and IV therapies. Then, I discovered the profound impact of actually removing the plasma that carries these toxins. In the last year, I have opted to explore plasma exchange, and the results have been incredible. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Paul Savage, former ER doctor, now functional medicine physician and founder of MDLifespan. We dive deep into what therapeutic plasma exchange actually is, why standard detox methods often fail for severe toxic burdens, and what everyone needs to know about chronic inflammation right now. The medical establishment is finally catching up to what Dr. Savage has been practicing for years. We cover everything from the science behind plasma exchange and how it compares to standard treatments, to why environmental toxins are the root cause of so many chronic illnesses. You will learn what you can do right now to actually reduce your toxic load, not just manage the symptoms. What you'll learn in this episode: Why standard detoxification methods often fail to remove forever chemicals and plastics  What therapeutic plasma exchange is and how it mechanically dilutes the body's toxic burden  Why pacing the treatments a month apart is crucial to avoid severe Herxheimer reactions  How the increase in environmental toxins is driving chronic fatigue, autoimmune issues, and cognitive decline  Why the source of the albumin used in the exchange is a critical safety factor  The truth about chronic infections like Lyme and how reducing toxins helps the body fight them  How to effectively minimize your exposure to toxins in your daily environment About Dr. Paul Savage: Dr. Paul Savage is a functional medicine physician, author, and founder of MD Lifespan. He spent 10 years as an emergency room physician before his own health crisis led him to integrative medicine. He now helps patients with severe chronic illnesses truly heal by addressing their toxic burden through specialized plasma exchange protocols.

What if the Lie the Character Believes isn't really a lie? For years I've taught the Lie the Character Believes as the foundation of character arc. But over time, I've come to see that this concept may point toward something much deeper than just a mistaken belief. In this episode, I explore three increasingly complex models for understanding the Lie the Character Believes—from a simple false belief, to a limited perspective, and finally to an ego identity. Along the way, we'll look at why character arc may be less about transformation and more about alignment, how the backstory Ghost creates the identities that shape our stories, and why the deepest arcs mirror the lifelong process of individuation. We talk about: • Why the Lie the Character Believes isn't always a lie • The difference between false beliefs, limited perspectives, and ego identities • How the Ghost creates the coping mechanisms behind character arc • Why character arc may be better understood as alignment rather than transformation • The relationship between story, consciousness, and individuation • Why archetypal stories resonate so deeply with readers • Examples from Jane Eyre, Everything Everywhere All at Once, A Court of Thorns and Roses, The Matrix, and more Whether you're developing a story, studying character arc, or simply fascinated by the deeper psychology of storytelling, I hope this conversation offers a fresh perspective on one of story theory's most foundational concepts.

It may come as a surprise, but in this world of stress and anxiety God doesn't want us to be afraid. But how is that supposed to work?   Do Not Worry About Anything Well, here we are – this is the last message in a series of four programmes that I have called "Do Not Be Afraid." So many people spend so much time being afraid in their lives. Either it's a crisis or just an ongoing nagging, ongoing sense that something bad is going to happen – a negativity; a pessimism, always thinking the worst. Always imaging the worst outcome – always expecting the worst. So often through the Bible, God says to His people "Do not be afraid." He doesn't want us living in fear; He doesn't want us worrying, and so many of us do. Okay, we might have a brave face; we might have a cool, calm exterior but inside, a lot of people are torn apart; shaken to the core by fear and worry. Well, today we are going to finish up this series by looking at three very practical things that we can do to overcome that. I'm talking about living a life that, by and large, is free from fear and worry. Scary things will still come along at us in life – it's about living through those things with a calm delight and a resolve, with a deep knowledge that God is in this place with us. The first thing I want to share with you is this: our mind matters! What we do with our thoughts really matters. Back in 1953 a man by the name of Norman Vincent Peale wrote a classic book – it's called "The Power of Positive Thinking" and for a long time I pooh-hooed that idea. "It's not about 'positive thinking'"; I said to myself, "it's about trusting in God." And even when I started reading his book fairly recently, I was sceptical but what he expounds in that book is exactly what God talks about in the Bible. Basically what he says is that: our mind matters. Let me take you to a passage that I often go to myself – it's written by the Apostle Paul in prison, on death row in a Roman prison, writing to his friends, the Philippians. Listen to what this man Paul writes from his dank prison cell. If you have a Bible, grab it – we are going to Philippians chapter 4 today – beginning at verse 6: Do not worry about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me and the God of peace will be with you. I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at last you have revived your concern for me; indeed you were concerned for me but had no opportunity to show it. Not that I'm referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have. I know what it is to have little, and I know what it is to have plenty. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of being well-fed and of going hungry, of having plenty and of being in need for I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Let me start with just the first couple of verses – let's look at them again. Do not worry about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your requests be known to God and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. How do we not worry? You see, in my experience, worry is just something that happens. I have wanted to turn the worry tap off many a time but this stream of worrying thoughts keeps flooding into my mind. Now, I am as strong willed and disciplined a person as you'll find anywhere. When I set my mind to achieving something, I invariably do – I have all my life. But you know something? What I have discovered is that I am powerless to turn off the worry tap. It's horrifying because when you worry it grips your whole life – you're waking and you're sleeping. Have you ever noticed that – you toss and turn at night and you can't sleep? It is believing in these two verses that have enabled me to end the worry in my life! Can I say that again? It is believing in these two verses in the Bible that has enabled me to end the worry in my life. And you know something? When you stop worrying, you have peace! That's exactly what Paul tells us; that's exactly what God wants to tell you and me today: Do not worry about anything but in everything …  How do I stop worrying – not by turning the tap off by myself but by replacing it with something else – with the "but in everything … " "Do not worry about anything but in everything … " So what's the "but"; what's the thing that we should replace the worrying with? All that time and energy we spend worrying, what do I do with it? I transfer it to something else – to what else? "Do not worry about anything but in everything ..." - that means "everything" – "in everything" that is causing me to worry, "by prayer and supplication" – what does that mean? Praying and entreating God – asking Him, seeking Him – so instead of wasting all that time and energy on worrying, spend it on praying and asking God. Imagine how different life would be if every time a worrying thought came to haunt the deepest recesses of our mind, we said "Hang on a minute – stop. I am not going to think on that. I am not going to dwell and brood and worry, but instead, in everything I am going to pray." How….how do we pray? – with thanksgiving – "God I thank You that I am in this place. I thank You that I have the opportunity to trust in You. I thank You that unless You show up, I'm in trouble. Now Lord, here's my problem, will You help me? Thank You!" If every time we go to worry we did that, here's what the Bible promises us – now listen to it very carefully – to this promise … a promise that is going to change your life: "Do not worry about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your request be known to God" – here comes the promise, "and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your minds in Christ Jesus." There it is! And you know something? That is exactly what happens! Try it, just for a few days, every time you start to worry about something, go to God, do the 'but' thing and here's what happens – He turns the worry tap off. No amount of strength or resolve or anything else is going to turn that worrying tap off, only God and it's an amazing peace; it's an incredible peace. The storm can still be raging, in fact, circumstances can be getting worse, but you have been praying and entreating and thanking God instead of worrying. And you think to yourself, "I can't explain this but I have a peace – how, why, how can this be?" That's why Paul calls it "a peace that surpasses all understanding" – God turned the worry tap off. He did what you and I can't do: and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  The worry can't get in – there is where the rubber hits the road.   My Mind Matters Okay, let's look at another practical thing that we can do to eradicate that fear and worry from our lives. See, it's more than just having faith – I mean faith is great but there are some practical things that we need to do to participate in God's plan for us not to worry and not to be afraid. Back with the Apostle Paul, in that dungeon again, on death row – if anyone had a reason it was the old Paul. We are going to have a look at what he wrote to his friends in Philippi about this whole subject of not being afraid. Pick it up in Philippians chapter 4, beginning at verse 8. He said: Finally beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you. Now I want to start with the second bit of this first. And here is the reason for that: because what Paul is telling us is that he has discovered how to have God's peace; how not to be afraid; how not to spend worrying. See, this is not some theory lesson. This is a guy on death row explaining how to have peace. "Keep on doing the things that you have learned and received and heard and seen in me and the God of peace will be with you." So Paul is saying, "You know my life; you know how often it's been threatened; you know how often people have rioted when I got up to speak and they wanted to harm me and kill me. You know that, you have seen me in action and you have seen how I have coped with the pressures and the threats. You want to have peace? You want to live a life free from fear and worry? Then do the things that you have seen in me and the things that I am telling you now and you will have peace too - God's peace." I think that is fantastic because what we are about to have a look at is a proven thing – it works in the direst of circumstances. Doesn't that excite you? You know, there is not one of us who doesn't have some reason to worry – not one of us, who isn't going through some storm right now. And just in case there is the odd person who isn't, just recognise that it is because you are between storms – the last one has blown out and the next one hasn't swept in yet. So what is the practical guidance that Paul gives us in this passage about how to dispense with fear and worry? Let's take a look: Philippians chapter 4, verse 8: Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure and pleasing and commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. You know what he is saying here? What we do with our mind matters! That's what Norman Vincent Peale wrote in his book in 1953, "The Power of Positive Thinking". And as I have said before, I used to be very sceptical about this – faith isn't just positive thinking … positive thinking has a self-help connotation to me – like I can think my way out of problems without God. All I have to do is think positive but that's not what he meant and that's not what Paul means here. Paul is setting out a simple truth – we only have so much brain-band with each day; so much time that we can spend thinking; so many hours to think. Some of our time we spend sleeping, some we spend doing things that require our complete attention so we don't have time to think about anything else. We spend time "veged" out in front of the TV I guess, not really thinking about much at all. And then there is the rest of the time when we have time to think and we can think good thoughts or bad thoughts, encouraging thoughts or discouraging thoughts. We can think thoughts that look at our situation, which may be difficult; which may be scary; which may be whatever and what we 'think' is going to influence how we see things and how we "feel" them. The human brain – get this – has about seventy thousand thoughts a day! Busy little thing, isn't it? And what Paul is say here is: "Look, spend your brain time; your think time, thinking good thoughts – true, honourable, just, pure, pleasing, commendable, excellent; things worthy of praise – think about these things." You know something? That makes a lot of sense to me and it's something we have to teach ourselves. Here's how it works for me: a negative thought comes into my mind "You know, that guy just doesn't get it. He's never going to get it. He just drives me nuts." Maybe he doesn't get it; maybe he has some issues, but I have decided something – if I think that way it's going to influence how I treat the guy. So when one of those thought comes floating in, I boot it out! It's not some unrealistic thing where I sweep things under the carpet, but I replace the bad thought with a good one. "How can I care for him today? How can I support him today? God you love him just as much as You love me, show me Father how I can build him up; how I can develop him; how I can grow him?" That makes sense and it's a discipline and the more we do it; the more we get into the habit of recognising a bad thought when it comes in and booting it out and replacing it with a good thought – God thoughts – here is what happens: our whole outlook starts to change. God honours that and where things were once a threat, He gives us the solution. Where things once scared us, He gives us faith and peace and all of a sudden we find ourselves in a habit of resting our minds in good things and all good things come from God and more good things come from that – peace is one of them; joy is another. Whatever is true, honourable, pure, just, pleasing, commendable, excellent, worthy of praise, think about those things!   A Word in Time As we come to the end of our series, "Do Not Be Afraid," I want to share with you the most important thing that I know about banishing fear and worry from our lives. It is the most important thing; the most effective thing and it comes from the last part of this passage in Philippians chapter 4 that we have been looking at today on the programme. The Apostle Paul is on death row; he is teaching us how to banish fear from our lives, from the most dire circumstances you and I could ever imagine and here's what he says – beginning at Philippians 4, verse 10: I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at last you have revived your concern for me. Indeed you were concerned for me but had no opportunity to show it." Remember, he is writing to his friends at Philippi, he is in his dungeon and he says: "Not that I referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have. I know what it is to have little; I know what it is to have plenty. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of being well-fed and of going hungry; of having plenty and of being in need, for I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Paul was an itinerant minister who travelled across most of the known world. A good part of his time he spent in jail and he is writing to his friends here about his physical needs. Obviously they provided for him and sent him money and resources when he has been in need and he is saying, "Thank you" – that's a good thing. I love how much of God's Word is about real, practical things in people's lives but he takes even this opportunity from his dungeon to teach them something. And I believe that God is taking the opportunity to teach us something. Here it is: For I have learned to be content with whatever I have. I know what it is to have a little; I know what it is to have plenty. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of being well-fed and of going hungry; of having plenty and of being in need for I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Paul is saying, "You know something, it doesn't matter what circumstances I am facing – good or bad, plenty or little, full or hungry – I have learned … learned in practice; in my experience, I have learned the secret ... the secret of getting through any and all circumstances and that secret is this ..." Philippians chapter 4, verse 13, that: I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. It doesn't matter what the world throws at me because God is the one who strengthens me. And when I am hanging close with Him; when I am relying on Him, He comes through – He does the things that I can't do – He saves me, He encourages me. "And I have been through this so many times", says Paul, "riots, so many times people have tried to hurt me; so many times people have criticised me, misunderstood me and rejected me because I was telling them about Jesus over and over and over and over and over again." Paul has learned this truth: I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. And you know why this is so important? Because whenever I feel a sense of despair, I come back to this one Scripture. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or hurt or rejected or alone or distressed or afraid, I stop; I clear my mind and I say this Scripture verse: Philippians chapter 4, verse 13: I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. This is the Word of God! And so I have a number of Scriptures, some that I have memorised, some I have got on my mobile phone. Another one of them is Mark chapter 11, verses 22 to 24: Jesus answered them, "Have faith in God. Truly I tell you, if you say to this mountain, "Be taken up and be thrown into the sea," and if you do not doubt in your heart but believe that what you have said will come to pass, it will be done for you. So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours. I have memorised that Scripture passage, can I tell you? I don't find it easy to memorise Scripture passages – that one and a few others I have memorised and I go to them again and again and again and again. Those I can't remember, I look at them on my mobile phone. You may not have a mobile phone – write them down on little cards, stick them in your pocket. God's Word changes our hearts and when we are struggling; when we are going through the hard stuff, we need access to God's Word. This is absolutely the most important thing that I know about living a life that's free from fear and worry. The more I do that, the more I find myself able to do all things that God calls me to do, through Him who strengthens me. I want to challenge you today. God's Word is not something to be trifled with. God's Word is not something we leave in a cupboard or on our shelves and then we wonder why our lives are full of fear and anxiety and stress. God's Word brings peace. God's Word convinces us of the truth of what God is saying: I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. You can do all things through Him who strengthens you – through plenty or through little, through hunger or through fullness. The most important thing that I know about dealing with fear is to fill your heart and your mind with the Word of God because it has healing power. It will build your faith; it changes your outlook; it is the stuff of healing and transformation. God and grab some Scripture verses that really speak powerfully to you – put them on some cards or in your mobile phone or memorise them and go to them again and again and again – every day. When you get up in the morning; when you have a break during the day to get away from the madness, just to pause; when you go to bed at night. I tell you something, you will learn what Paul learned through the school of hard knocks that you can do all things through Him who strengthens you. You know, I challenge you today. You do this for just a couple of weeks; two or three weeks, and fear will be banished from your life because your perspective changes; you start to see things through God's Word and all of a sudden you start to live it by faith and your faith grows. It's not rocket science – this is so practical, anyone can do this. You can do all things through Him who strengthens you

Have you ever made a decision that, on reflection, made no sense? Stayed in a job you hated, a relationship that was wrong, a group that did not value you? And wondered why you could not just leave? The answer is not weakness. The answer is biology. We are wired to belong. Not as a preference, not as a personality trait, but as a survival imperative. And when that wiring is running quietly in the background, it shapes far more of our lives than we realise. In this Moment of Awe, we explore what the science reveals about belonging, why the pull to fit in is so powerful, and three ways to begin cultivating the kind of belonging that fills you rather than depletes you. The Hunger You Did Not Choose For most of human history, being cast out of your group meant death. Your nervous system has not forgotten that. It still treats rejection and exclusion as a physical threat, and it responds accordingly. This is not poetic language. Neuroscientist Matthew Lieberman, in his research at UCLA, found that the brain processes social rejection in the same region it processes physical pain. Being left out hurts, literally, in the same way a broken bone does. Psychologist Roy Baumeister found something similar from a different angle: the need to belong is one of the most fundamental human motivations, operating across cultures, ages and contexts. When that need goes unmet, people will go to extraordinary lengths to satisfy it, often at significant cost to themselves. I call this belonging hunger. It is the background drive that makes you shrink yourself to fit in. It keeps you in rooms that diminish you, because being in the room feels safer than being outside it. It makes you agree when you disagree, perform when you are exhausted, and betray your own values to avoid the terror of exclusion. And most people have no idea it is happening. That is what makes it so powerful. Belonging hunger does not announce itself. It simply distorts everything quietly: your choices, your relationships, the way you see yourself. Counterfeit Belonging and the Real Thing Here is the distinction that changes everything. Counterfeit belonging requires you to hide parts of yourself in order to be accepted. It feels like belonging from the outside. It looks like belonging on paper. But there is always a cost, and you pay it in the quiet exhaustion of maintaining a version of yourself that is not quite true. Genuine belonging is what happens when you are accepted because of who you actually are, not in spite of it. Brené Brown puts it perfectly: fitting in is the opposite of belonging. Fitting in requires you to change yourself. Belonging requires you to be yourself. Three Ways to Cultivate Genuine Belonging This is not a single dramatic act. It happens in small, honest moments. Here is where to begin: Audit where you currently belong. Look at the groups, relationships and environments in your life and ask honestly: do I feel safe to be myself here? If the answer is no, that is not belonging. That is performance. And performance is exhausting. Risk being seen in one relationship. Genuine belonging begins with one moment of authentic self-disclosure. Not a dramatic revelation, simply a real opinion, a real feeling, a real admission. Then notice what happens. The people who respond with warmth to your authenticity are the ones worth investing in. Build your belonging from the inside out. The most durable sense of belonging comes not from finding the right group, but from belonging to yourself first. When you are deeply connected to your own values, your own truth, your own sense of who you are, you carry belonging with you. No one can grant it, and no one can take it away. The Distance You Have Been Feeling So here is the invitation. What if the loneliness you have been feeling is not about the people around you, but about the distance between who you are with them and who you actually are? What if genuine belonging, the kind that actually fills you rather than depletes you, is available to you right now? Not when you find the right people or the right place, but when you stop hiding the person you already are. You were not made to fit in. You were made to belong. And belonging begins the moment you stop asking permission to be yourself. Because the more human we are with each other, the more we all rise. You can watch the video of this episode on YouTube.

Christians in much of the world today face pressures. Few, however, face anything as intense as those Christians who lived under the first few decades of authoritarian rule in either the Soviet Union or Communist China. At least not yet.While freedom and opportunity still remains, Christians today would be wise to consider the experiences of Christians under the Soviets and Chinese Communists. Though both situations shared many similarities, they developed in starkly different manners. Why did they differ so much? What lessons can we glean and apply in our own situations? And what cautionary flags can we recognize and avoid?On this encore episode of the Christian Emergency Podcast, Andy examines a helpful case study of the Christian experience under the Soviets and Chinese. This comparison, produced originally by Nik Ripken in his book The Insanity of Obedience, provides many helpful insights for Christians today.If you find this material helpful, please share it with your friends and leave us a five-star rating wherever you listen to your podcasts.

Drawing from Matthew 5:21-32, this sermon explores Jesus' teachings in the Sermon on the Mount as he uses three case studies from the Law to reveal how the condition of the human heart determines the health of our relationships. The pastor argues that the kingdom of God is fundamentally relational, and that Jesus consistently moves beyond outward behavior to address the inward condition of the heart. Using the central statement "the value you place on people determines the value of your relationships," the sermon identifies three destructive patterns -- devaluing people, objectifying people, and making people replaceable -- and contrasts them with how God values humanity. The sermon concludes with the reminder that every person bears inherent worth as an image-bearer of God, and that Christ's sacrificial death is the ultimate demonstration of human value.

Some months your money feels calm, and some months it feels like chaos, even when your paycheck stays exactly the same.This week on the podcast I'm reading Chapter 3 of my book, SpendFirst®. It's the chapter where a lot of people finally set down the self-blame and see that their system was the thing missing all along.Most budgeting sorts your spending by category: housing, food, fun. And the piece it leaves out is the one that actually gets to you, which is timing. When you start looking at how your money behaves instead of only what it's for, the whole picture settles.A few things this chapter opens up:Why knowing what you spend still leaves the stress in place, and what's been missing.The three waves your money moves in: SpendFixed, SpendFreely, and SpendFuture, and how sorting by them brings order to the mess.The moment people exhale, when the shape of their money finally comes into view and the calm follows.You can start sorting your own waves before the book is even out.

This episode is for the teachers, the homeschool parents, and anyone with a kid in a classroom of any kind. Billy Hutchinson, director of Colson Educators at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview, joins the show to break down a simple but powerful idea: nothing about education is neutral. Every teacher, every textbook, and every campus culture is shaped by a worldview, whether anyone says so out loud or not. Billy walks through the three places where worldview actually gets formed in a kid's education: the teacher, the curriculum, and the campus culture. He explains why a "Christian school" can still function just like a secular one, why a secular curriculum isn't automatically the enemy, and what parents should actually look for at graduation season if they want to know what a school truly values.We also get into phones, social media, and AI, and why Christian parents need to think beyond "how do I use this tool better" to the bigger question underneath: what is this doing to my kid's understanding of what it means to be human?If you're a teacher, a homeschool parent, or just someone raising kids in this cultural moment, this conversation will change how you look at every school day.Learn more and access free resources for educators at colsoneducators.org/tbu.

Episode SummaryOto sits down with Tom Barendregt to go deep on TAG/CopyX — and the "Amplified Account" that lets clients trade with up to 12X their deposited capital. Tom shares his personal story (three cancer diagnoses, a decade in affiliate marketing, and how he ended up in Dubai), then breaks down exactly how the platform works: the mechanics of leveraged trading, how CopyX protects elite traders from being copied in real time, the fee structure and high watermark system, and the affiliate ecosystem tying TAG, Bit.one, and BIX together. Oto plays devil's advocate throughout, pressing Tom on negative reviews, regulatory questions, and the classic "is this an MLM" concern — and Tom answers all of it directly.Chapters / Timestamps(Shifted +52s to account for the trailer at the top of the episode)00:00 – Trailer00:52 – Intro & Meet Tom Barendregt01:52 – From Hockey Prospect to 3x Cancer Survivor05:52 – How Tom Got Into Affiliate Marketing10:52 – Is TAG/CopyX an MLM?

Minimum to qualify as an affiliate: $250 in an active strategy.The ecosystem (TAG, Bit.one crypto exchange, BIX card) shares one referral link and one affiliate back office — affiliates earn across all three.Tom addresses negative reviews directly explains WikiFX's pay-for-score model, a retracted Dutch regulator complaint, and the ownership transition from Pure North Markets to TM Financials Ltd.**THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE, THIS IS FOR EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY**JOIN TAG/COPYX TODAYGET TAG/COPYX ONBOARDING SUPPORTCONNECT WITH OTO:Instagram - https://instagram.com/otogomesWebsite - https://otogomes.liveJOIN CFA FREE

The fragile ceasefire between the United States and Iran has broken down, and the Middle East is once again on the brink of a much larger conflict. Buck breaks down the latest developments, including Iranian attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, President Trump's military response, the impact on global oil markets, and what could happen next. He outlines three possible scenarios: a limited exchange followed by renewed negotiations, a sustained U.S. military campaign to pressure Iran, or a broader regional war involving Iran's proxies and Israel.

Are you a real estate agent waiting for the market to recover before you start pushing harder? In this video, I break down the exact framework I have used to grow our team's production every single year since the market shifted, covering mindset, skill development, strategy, and accountability. Waiting is a strategy and it is a losing one, so we are going to talk about what the agents who are actually winning right now are doing differently. I cover the three strategic pivots every agent should be making in a slow market including expired listings, investor relationships, and your own database, plus the daily accountability system that separates agents who dominate from the ones who are just hoping something falls in their lap. Whether you are a newer agent trying to get traction or a seasoned agent who has lost momentum in this market, this video gives you a clear and actionable path forward.

There is a word, duḥkha, which is generally translated as misery, but what it really means is to be out of alignment. Duh- kha, 'kha' means space. We say in California, "I'm in a bad space, man." Or sukha means I'm in a good space. But what it refers to is being out of alignment and then feeling friction because of that. That's simple enough, right? For instance, if an axle is bent and it's not aligned properly with whatever it goes into—(don't ask me, because I'm not a mechanic)— sooner or later there'll be friction, there'll be heat, there'll be a fire, there'll be extra expenses and there'll be insurance claims where the deductible is so high that you might as well not even make a claim anyway. What to speak of, it could cause an accident, you could even die from being out of alignment. And so, there is a way in which the idea of the life of Kṛṣṇa consciousness—of practicing bhakti-yoga—is to come into alignment with our spiritual purpose in life. That solves the problem; it really does. You can't solve it any other way, because any adjustment in the material world ultimately does not solve the main problem, which is that we have a nature which is defined in several ways. But I will mention three of them, because they will be instantly recognizable by you, and there are ways in which you may instantly feel aligned with Kṛṣṇa. The first one is...

Have you ever felt a quiet unease you couldn’t quite name? Your life looks fine, maybe even good. Nothing is technically wrong. And yet something follows you, a sense that the person you present to the world and the person you actually are, are not quite the same. That distance has a name. I call it the identity gap. And it is one of the most common, least talked about sources of suffering I see in the work that I do. In this Moment of Awe, we explore where this gap comes from, why it was never a character flaw, and three practical ways to begin closing it. The Space Between Two Selves Most of us were shaped by other people’s ideas of who we should be. Our parents, our culture, religion, school, the version of success handed to us before we were old enough to choose our own. For a long time, we live inside that shape. We perform it so well that we forget it is a performance. Until we don’t. Until something shifts, and the quiet anxiety becomes impossible to ignore. The identity gap is the distance between who you were conditioned to be and who you actually are. It is the space between the self you show the world and the self that surfaces when you are completely alone. Psychologist Carl Rogers called this the gap between the real self and the ideal self, and when that gap is wide, anxiety lives right in between. Not loud, dramatic anxiety. Quiet anxiety. The kind that shows up as a low hum of dissatisfaction. Decisions that look good on paper but feel wrong in the body. Relationships where you feel unseen, not because the other person is failing, but because you have never shown them who you actually are. A career that made sense at 25 and feels like a cage at 40. It Was Never a Flaw. It Was Survival. Here is what is important to understand. The gap is not a character flaw. It is the result of adaptation. You became who you needed to become in order to survive in your environment, to be loved, to belong. That was intelligent. That was necessary. But you are no longer that child, and the shape you adapted into may no longer fit the person you are growing into. When you can see the gap this way, something softens. You stop blaming yourself for the distance and start getting curious about crossing it. Three Ways to Begin Closing the Gap Closing the identity gap is not a single dramatic act. It happens in small, honest moments. Here is where to begin: Get curious about where you feel most like yourself. Not where you perform best, not where you are most productive or most admired. Where do you feel most at ease in your own skin? That feeling is data. Follow it. Notice the moments of resentment. Resentment is almost always a signal that something you are doing is out of alignment with who you actually are. It is not a flaw, it is a compass. Ask yourself: what am I doing that does not feel like mine? Practise small acts of authentic expression. You do not close the identity gap in a single conversation. You close it in tiny daily choices. Sharing a real opinion. Saying no to something that is not yours. Letting someone see you, even slightly, as you actually are. A Signal, Not a Problem So here is the invitation. What if the anxiety you have been trying to manage is not a problem to solve, but a signal to follow? What if the version of you that feels most real, most alive, most like home is not something you have to build from scratch, but something you have to return to? The gap is not the truth of who you are. It is simply the distance between where you are and where you belong. And every step towards your truth closes it a little more. Because the more human we are with each other, the more we all rise. You can watch the video of this episode on YouTube. Newsletter: https://catherineplano.com for transformation.

Preached by Jared Kress on June 28, 2026. Main Idea: The movement of Joseph's bones speaks to his own faith in God's promise, as well as to the multi-generational obedience of many people. His bones, which could have been an inconvenience, served as an anchor to the past and a beacon for the future. Challenge: What is something you look at that reminds you of God's faithfulness? What anchors you to the past, and what gives you hope for the future?   The Bones of Joseph Testified in Three Ways, in Three Times:1. How We Got Here (Egypt)2. We Can't Stay Here (Wilderness)3.

In this interval workout, Alisa Keeton invites you to move your body so you can return to your body—and encounter a God who created it. This is not a "have to." It's a get-to. A chance to care for your body, nourish it, and remember that worry and striving lead toward bondage, while presence leads toward freedom. A Question to Begin When was the last time you felt truly seen by God? Because the God who sees… sees you. Today's Scripture

Inflation just hit 3.8%, the highest it's been since 2023. That means that $100 you had in January? It's worth about $96.30 today. So today, Nicole breaks down three tools that protect your money when inflation runs hot: I bonds, TIPS, and gold. She explains exactly how each one works, who each is best for, and the critical differences between them — including why gold didn't spike during the pandemic inflation surge the way everyone expected, and why right now might actually be different. Plus, Nicole shares a little-known strategy called the "gift box" method that lets couples legally stack up to $40,000 in I bond purchases in a single calendar year.
