Send us a textWhat if the most spiritual thing you do this week is build something that lasts? We dive straight into a gutsy thesis: God is glorified not only by private devotion but by public fruitfulness—by redeemed people building enduring work, institutions, and cultures under the lordship of Christ. Anchored in Luke 19's parable of the minas, we examine stewardship that multiplies, the danger of burying potential, and why faithful risk is a sign of faith in God's character.From there we get practical. We unpack calling through two levers—ownership and opportunity—and make the case that motion beats overthinking. We talk about the inner life that fuels outer fruit: prayer that asks bigger, self-talk that aligns with Scripture, and habits that carry us when feelings fade. Competence matters, and so does confidence, defined as keeping promises to yourself. We touch on structured discipline like 75 Hard, the value of paying to learn so you actually pay attention, and a simple ethic of excellence every day and every way.Then we widen the frame to scaling and legacy. You haven't truly built until the work can live without you. Teaching what you know creates capacity and multiplies impact. We explore money as a magnifier and reproducer, pushing past guilt toward generous stewardship that creates jobs, lifts communities, and funds mission. The heart check is plain: are people blessed because you are building?We close with continuity and courage. Valleys shape endurance; mountaintops clarify direction. Lone-wolf Christianity fails, so we lean into community to go far. Don't kill ambition—aim it. Trailblazers take arrows, but scars become currency in God's kingdom. If faithfulness turns to fruitfulness, and fruitfulness to expansion, the outcome is inheritance that outlives us.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who's building, and leave a review with one bold, God-sized goal you're committing to this year. Let's shine where we work and give our Father glory.Support the show

Travis Demers and Chad Doing go off the rails a bit to open the podcast, and then talk about what everyone is thinking.  Why haven't the injured players returned yet? Plus the development of Donovan Clingan, and how has Deni Avdija continued to shine?

The Celtics lose 114-108 to the Trail Blazers because of some costly turnovers and offensive rebounding. JB continued his stretch of 30+ pt performances tying Larry Bird for a franchise record 9 consecutive games and even passed Bill Sharman for 12th all time in franchise scoring but it was a bit over shadowed tonight by the turnovers down the stretch. Him and White were just not on the same page in the final stretch and it really cost the Celtics.

2:03 Recapping the night honoring the 1999-2000 team.19:00 Dunk updateThen, We had a talk about YOUR takes. What's on your mind, Takers? 28:25 Dave's not here man‬ ‪@pacnwce.bsky.social‬ Take:  finding out Deni can produce like a star is the most important thing to happen to the Trail Blazers future since Cronin took over.  It's Deni's world, we're just living in it32:35 Octdesertlover‬ ‪@octdesertlover.bsky.social‬ You've probably seen this one from me before but......they should sell peppermint bark year round.  I know there are other peppermint chocolate stuff the rest of the year but peppermint bark > York peppermint patties.35:30 Jason‬ ‪@hecubus01.bsky.social‬ Ok, I've thought of one. Robert Williams won't be traded & will be signed to a team friendly deal in the off season.38:00  Jason ‪@hecubus01.bsky.social‬ Also the Golden Globes need to figure out some of their categories like what constitutes a comedy/musical nominee. Cinematic & Box office Achievement?! C'mon! You have the new Avatar nominated in that category & it hasn't even come out yet!41:30  ‪Pedro‬ ‪@linssenp.bsky.social‬ I wish the Blazers (and other sports teams) would be more forthcoming with information on players injuries and their progress/rehab. What's your take?Catherine‬ ‪@catrenzer.bsky.social‬ Sneak-attack cheering is not cool. What is that? When GS & Lakers fans flood Moda and don't cheer for their team until they gain a good lead in the 3rd or 4th Q, and come to life only when they are winning. If you are going to cheer for your team, do it (respectfully), winning or losing.‪53:29 Keanu_reevebooks‬ ‪@jamesgameboy.bsky.social‬ Here's a crazy one: I don't care if the Blazers ever win another championship. We currently have a roster full of guys that I like watching/hearing about. As long as they're competitive/progressing, that's what I want. (Obviously I don't want the players or front office to feel that way haha)58:00 ‪Mr. 503 Gavi HaCohen‬ ‪@gavihacohen.bsky.social‬ My take is that whatever Meredith Marks did on the airplane can't be that bad because the air marshals didn't get involved and im tired of hearing Heather talk about it like she's Jen Shah1:06 Rose's friend Chelsea: I feel like many people have this take, but it's honestly just refreshing to watch these guys play. Win or lose. The entire team seems to have a fight in them and I don't think that's something we've really seen in a long time. Even when Dame was on the team way back when it often felt like he was the only one holding us up. It feels like we have a team who plays together and not just a whole bunch of guys supporting one or two others.1:10:00 Die Mad (@playest.bsky.social ) Deni is our best player but the secret MVP is actually Sidy!Our best lineup for the season was when Sidy started.Deni is 6.1 points per 100 possessions better with Sidy on the floor than withoutSharpe is 7.1 points betterToumani is 6.3 points betterJerami is 14.6 points betterGood things happen when he is on the floor.1:13: 30 Rose's daughter:  Ollie is going to win MVP season 1:16 Rose's husband: my year-end take in honor of the late Rob Reiner: The Princess Bride is the greatest movie of all time and 2nd place isn't close1:20 Tara and Rose's takes

Day 1,399. Today, President Zelensky has revealed details of the proposed peace plan worked out between US and Ukraine delegations last weekend in Miami, that is due to be put to Russia later today. Plus, since it's Christmas Eve, something a little different: a special look at the Ukrainian art scene, past and present.We begin with the generation of Ukrainian artists at the dawn of the 20th century who helped drive the Modernist movement, breaking with centuries of figurative tradition and pushing art decisively into modernity. We examine how artists are later reclaimed by national narratives – and why – as well as how the full-scale invasion has reshaped the global art market. We then turn to Ukraine's contemporary art scene, focusing on one young, emerging artist and exploring how their generation, and their creativity, is being transformed by the war.CONTENT REFERENCED:In the Eye of the Storm, Modernism in Ukraine, 1900–1930s, Royal Academy of Arts: https://www.royalacademy.org.uk/exhibition/eye-of-the-stormJames Butterwick.

The Kings rematched the Blazers Saturday night and while the game was close, there was no spectacular or controversial ending. The Kings simply got outplayed, so on to the Rockets game the next night.And what a game it was, the Kings battled hard against the Rockets all night and sent the game to OT with a spectacular 3 pointer from Westbrook where they would win with a go-ahead 3 from Schroder in the final seconds.In both of these games, the Kings have leaned into a set lineup where they embrace the young players along with an interesting combo of veterans to stir the drink.It will be interesting to see how these things develop together as the season goes on.Use code SKT15 on checkout to get 15% off from HYVDesigns on Etsy during checkout or use this link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/hyvdesigns/?etsrc=sdt&coupon=SKT15Intro Music by Blue Dot Sessions. https://www.sessions.blueIf you want to email us: kingtherapypod@gmail.com

The guys spend hour one talking about the Kings coming up short in their comeback to the Trail Blazers.

The Kings screwed the Kings, referee Marc Davis says. After pulling a miraculous comeback after being down 15 with under 2 and a half minutes to go to tie the game and go into overtime, the Kings would take a 1 point lead in OT with 4.4 seconds to go after trailing by 6 with 33.2 seconds to go.Deni Avdija would take the ball down the court with 4.4 seconds to go and miss a runner from just inside the 3 point line.The game was over, everyone thought, but no so fast, as referee Marc Davis calls a foul that occurred just prior to the clock expiring on Russell Westbrook to give Deni 2 freethrows to win the game by 1.It was one of the wildest games this year and perhaps in history and Owen goes through it.Use code SKT15 on checkout to get 15% off from HYVDesigns on Etsy during checkout or use this link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/hyvdesigns/?etsrc=sdt&coupon=SKT15Intro Music by Blue Dot Sessions. https://www.sessions.blueIf you want to email us: kingtherapypod@gmail.com

Ben Rafter: Sure, I fit into the fall into it category, without a doubt. I was a, uh, tech guy for better part of 15 years, mostly startups. Sold two of 'em and after selling, the second one was locked out of the industry for a year and got a phone call from a hotel guy. And he said, what are you doing? You want to come to Mount Everest with me? And just because nothing better to do for the next month. We packed up and headed over to Nepal and on about the third day he said to me, so what do you think of the hospitality industry and hotels? And it was dumb enough to open my mouth and give him my opinion that you needed to sort of fuse together larger than life hoteliers, which was his background and kind of quant tech data, guys like me. And over the next 20 days, we hashed out starting a hotel company literally on the side of a mountain, in this case. And after that ended, it was 2008, the market crashed. We had a new president. I flew to Hawaii and we started with four hotels in Hawaii. And it's been nonstop ever since. So definitely not a traditional way to get into the industry. Ryan Embree: Yeah, yeah. You give new meaning to kind of climbing the corporate ladder, so to speak, when, when talking about that. But I think that's what honestly makes hospitality so fascinating. Because yours, honestly, a lot of the majority of the guests we talked to Ben, hospitality was not their final destination, so to speak, what you were talking to. But I think it brings new perspective and obviously insights into an industry that, quite frankly, we're gonna talk about it in a minute, but needs some more technology integration into hospitality right now. And to fast forward to today, obviously a strategic merger in May, 2025 with Springboard Hospitality. It's been extremely busy second half of the year for you and your team, including a couple exciting announcements we're gonna talk about in a second, Ben. But, you know, can you share some of the biggest kind of takeaways and lessons you've learned for the business, over this past six months? Maybe give us a state of the Hotel Equities as you would say. Ben Rafter: Yeah, absolutely. I mean one thing, coming from sort of independent and generally either gateway market or leisure focused. You learn how diverse some of these markets are and how much different it is running a courtyard or a Rest Inn or a Hamp...

First we talk about how we're feeling after a rough stretch of games for the Portland Trail Blazers. Injuries suck, waiting sucks, but watching a team lean into its identity, and watching young players make the most of their unexpected opportunities always warms our hearts. We talk about how Deni Avdija, Jeremi Grant, Duop Reath and Toumani Camara are keeping the team afloat while carefully falling down and quickly getting back up.  Then, We Have A Talk about Sidy Cissoko and what a surprisingly hard time getting pretty basic information about his journey to the NBA.
