Have you ever felt that conflict deep in your soul? The world screams for justice, but the words of Jesus echo in your spirit, telling you to turn the other cheek. This isn't a contradiction; it's a battle plan—a spiritual technology so powerful it changed the world. In this episode of "Coffee with Conrad," we trace the revolutionary path of nonviolence not as passive pacifism, but as an offensive spiritual declaration of war against the enemy. We'll uncover how the torch of truth, lit by Jesus, was passed to Leo Tolstoy, Mahatma Gandhi, and finally to Martin Luther King Jr., igniting transformative change in their wake Key Takeaways:The Battlefield and the Weapon: The true meaning of "turning the other cheek" is an active confrontation with spiritual weapons of love and truth, not passive resignation. Our battle is not against "flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness" (Ephesians 6).A Chain of Torchbearers: Learn how the radical idea of non-resistance to evil was passed from Jesus to Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy, who wrote The Kingdom of God Is Within You. This book then influenced a young Indian lawyer, Mahatma Gandhi, who forged the concept into a weapon he calledIgniting America: Discover how Martin Luther King Jr. found in Gandhi's satyagraha the method he needed to put the Christian doctrine of love into social action. King's nonviolent approach, rooted in agape love, led to monumental change like the Voting Rights Act of 1965.Your Calling and Your Hill: Each of us has a specific calling—a "divine assignment" where our passion aligns with kingdom purposes. The key is to find your "hill to die on" and confront the spiritual forces behind that specific injustice with Jesus's revolutionary love.Study the Word and the Torchbearers: "Study to shew thyself approved unto God" (2 Timothy 2:15). The chain of truth shows that one idea from Jesus can change the world, and we can be warriors for this cause by studying these principles"The Demon Slayer: John Wesley's Hidden Spiritual Battles" https://youtu.be/LK5npfA0YWA?si=zHcjynJx0uTaLweT The Kingdom of God Is Within You by Leo Tolstoy https://amzn.to/3H8klSu Letter from Birmingham Jail by Martin Luther King Jr https://amzn.to/45kqkM8 My Experiments with Truth by Mahatma Gandhi https://amzn.to/3JiOS0k Connect With Me:Blog: conradrocks.nethttps://www.conradrocks.net/Social Media: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | TikTok https://www.facebook.com/conrad.carrikerhttps://www.instagram.com/conradcarrikerhttps://twitter.com/MostRadicalManhttps://www.tiktok.com/@supernaturalchristianityFree Resources:Try Audible Free Trial https://amzn.to/2MT9aQWGet Readwise Free Trial https://readwise.io/i/conrad8Get Remnote Free Trial https://www.remnote.com/invite/sRJnqJujEgsGoLuc2Start Amazon Prime Free Trial https://amzn.to/2JtymteFor Creators: Get $10 off StreamYard https://streamyard.com/pal/d/5663052624035840My Work:Books: Open Your Eyes | Night Terror https://amzn.to/3RJx7byhttps://amzn.to/3XRFohlShop: Team Jesus T-Shirts https://teespring.com/stores/team-jesus-4Support:PayPal https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ConradRocksThings we need on our Ministry WishList https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2GSBT99APHFQR?ref_=wl_share

In the tenth and final episode of "Holiness," Duane Sheriff teaches that transformation into holiness occurs progressively as we continually behold God's glory instead of focusing on our sins or the sins of others. This holiness is not achieved through self-effort or willpower but through the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. We are gradually transformed into Christ's image when we shift our focus from our failures and past struggles to God's goodness and love.https://pastorduane.com/holiness/

For this special edition of TCP Talks, Justin Brodley is joined by four distinguished guests from the FinOps Foundation following the recent FinOps X conference in San Diego. Rob Martin, Mike Fuller, Graham Murphy, and the TCP team dive deep into the evolution of FinOps from pure cloud cost management to the broader “Cloud Plus” world, the rapid adoption of Focus 1.2, and how AI is transforming both what we manage and how we manage it. About Our Guests Rob Martin has been with the FinOps Foundation for four years, currently focusing on the AI working group, ITAM initiatives, and the rapidly growing public sector adoption. His experience spans training development and strategic initiatives that have helped shape the foundation’s direction during a period of explosive growth. Mike Fuller is one of the founding members of the FinOps Foundation and co-author of the Cloud FinOps book. As a member of the Focus project steering committee, he’s been instrumental in developing the specification that’s standardizing cloud billing data across the industry. Graham Murphy serves as Director of SaaS P&L for Technology One in Brisbane. With 8-9 years in FinOps and recently nominated as both a FinOps Ambassador and Focus Ambassador, Graham brings a practitioner’s perspective from the APAC region and insights on implementing Focus in a SaaS environment. Conference Growth and Evolution The 2025 FinOps X conference in San Diego marked a significant milestone with approximately 2,000 attendees—a substantial increase from the previous year. Despite the larger venue, the conference maintained its intimate feel, allowing for meaningful connections and knowledge sharing. 2:49 Graham: “AI definitely grew a lot this year. A lot more talk about how you go about managing AI, how FinOps is going to drive better value out of your AI investments. And also just a lot of people trying to understand where to start.” The conference format evolved with more senior leadership participation, including executives from PepsiCo, Ticketmaster, and Nubank sharing their FinOps journeys. The quality of presentations notably improved, with practitioners willing to share deeper insights into their mature FinOps programs. The Cloud Plus Revolution A dominant theme throughout the conference was the expansion beyond traditional cloud cost management into what the foundation calls “Cloud Plus”—encompassing SaaS, data center, licensing, and AI costs. 4:31 Mike: “We saw that sort of echoed quite well across many of the breakout sessions by practitioners exactly how they’re sort of incorporating other costs into the conversation of their practices.” 6:56 Rob: “Ticketmaster said something that I loved, which was that they were ‘happily hybrid’… we understand that we’ve got all these different modalities that we’re going to use to deliver value—SaaS models and data center models and cloud models.” This shift represents a fundamental change in how organizations view FinOps, moving from a cloud-specific practice to a comprehensive IT financial management approach.

In just the last two decades, we've experienced a global financial crash, a pandemic, multiple wars, and a climate crisis with repeated natural disasters. I talk with LIZZIE WADE about the ideas in APOCALYPSE: How Catastrophe Transformed Our World and Can Forge New Futures. If a society enters a cataclysm - climate crisis, war, plague, etc. - behaving one way and emerges behaving another, she defines that as an apocalypse. Looking at these situations over time reveals they need not end badly. In fact, such transformation have often nudged us forward. Faced with today's news, we could all use a dose of hope.

Join us for a lively discussion of Christina Hillsberg's book Agents of Change: The Women Who Transformed the CIA. Hillsberg is a former intelligence operative who has written a narrative exploration of the agency's history, told through exclusive interviews with current and former female CIA officers, many of whom have never spoken publicly until now. The book fills a necessary gap in the agency's history and takes a critical view of the agency's indisputable record of suppressing the women who would become its most valued trailblazers—and its most vocal troublemakers.  These were women who sacrificed their personal lives, risked their safety, defied expectations, and boldly navigated the male-dominated spy organization, routinely passed over for promotions, recruiting assets, and managing clandestine operations.  Terry Shames, who worked at the CIA and is an acclaimed, award winning mystery writer, will provide additional energy and knowledge of both the CIA and writing.  You won't want to miss this program and a chance to ask questions to both writers. About the Speakers Christina Hillsberg of Chicago is a former CIA intelligence officer and writer. While at the CIA, she wrote analytic assessments for the president, his cabinet, and other senior-level policymakers. Hillsberg specialized in African politics and leaders and was one of the intelligence community's few Swahili and Zulu linguists. She later worked in the CIA's Directorate of Operations, clandestinely collecting intelligence from the field. She is the recipient of multiple CIA Exceptional Performance Awards. After leaving the CIA, Hillsberg worked in information security at Amazon, where she stood up the company's first insider threat program, created a new global framework to analyze cyber risks, and established new processes to utilize intelligence tradecraft to analyze information security threats. Terry Shames is the award-winning, best-selling author of 11 Samuel Craddock mysteries. As well as winning the Macavity Award for Best First Novel, her first book, A Killing at Cotton Hill, was also shortlisted for the Strand Critics Award. She has been short-listed for the Left Coast Crime Lefty Award, and in 2016 won the RWA Editor's Choice award for The Necessary Murder of Nonie Blake. The eleventh in the series, The Troubling Death of Maddy Benson, October 2024, was an Amazon Editor's Pick. In April 2024, she debuted the Jessie Madison thriller series with Perilous Waters. In March she published Out of Control, her first domestic suspense novel. After graduating from The University of Texas, Shames worked for the CIA for three years in the China division. After she left the CIA she went into computer programming and analysis for 10 years, during which she began writing fiction. Shames lives in Southern California with her husband, her dog Monty and her cat Max. She is a member of the Mystery Writers of America, Sisters in Crime, International Thriller Writers and the Texas Institute of Letters.

Welcome to Week 8 of Fruitful Girl Summer!

Ever wondered what the best way is to start your morning for optimal gut health? In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact routine I follow (and recommend to my clients) that supports digestion, boosts energy, helps with skin issues, and sets the tone for a smoother day overall. I'm also sharing the backstory—how I discovered my gut was behind my cystic acne, why your mouth health directly impacts your digestive system, and why skipping breakfast may be one of the worst things you can do for your hormones and metabolism. Whether you're starting from scratch or ready to fine-tune your current routine, this episode gives you 3 simple steps to implement right away—and a deeper understanding of why they matter. Inside the episode:  Why your gut is at the center of everything (mood, skin, hormones, metabolism—you name it!) The real reason cystic acne and bloating may have nothing to do with your skincare or diet How our culture has brainwashed us into treating symptoms instead of the root The 3-step morning gut routine I swear by and recommend to every woman: Oil pulling or tongue scraping to reset your oral microbiome Morning lemon + ACV water to wake up your enzymes 30g of protein within 1 hour to fire up digestion and stabilize energy Why being “not hungry in the morning” is a red flag and not a flex How deep testing like GI mapping and Dutch hormone testing can uncover what routines alone can't fix Learn more:  Dutch Testing: https://drbethwestie.com/dutch-hormone-testing/ GI Mapping: https://dr-beth-westie.mykajabi.com/offers/atCzhzkQ/checkout The Female Hormone Solution Program: My deep-dive coaching program that gets to the root of your hormone and gut health issues ➡️ Join the Waitlist Here

Transformed By Love // “Love Is” How can we, as a church and as individuals, live in our community in a way that reflects the grace and kindness of Jesus? But What Is the Love of God? Ephesians 3:14-19 (ESV)“For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” Agape - noun used 18x = benevolence, goodwill, flowing from God's charter. Agapáo - verb used 28x = The proof of love. Love Is + Love Does God is Love What is the Love of God Like? His Love Appears First 1 John 4:19 (ESV)“We love because he first loved us.” His Love Cannot be Earned 1 John 4:9-10 (NLT)“God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.” Romans 8:38-39 (ESV)“For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” “The gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.” - Timothy Keller His Love is Proven by the Cross Romans 5:6,8 (ESV)“For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly… but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” John 3:16-17 (NIV)“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.” His love is revealed by the Holy Spirit Galatians 1:11-12 (ESV)“For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached is not man's gospel. For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.” Ephesians 3:14-19 (ESV)“For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” “Holy Spirit, Give Me a Revelation of Your Love, I Need It!”

A richly imagined new view on the great human tradition of apocalypse, from the rise of Homo sapiens to the climate instability of our present, that defies conventional wisdom and long-held stories about our deep past to reveal how cataclysmic events are not irrevocable endings, but transformations. A drought lasts for decades, a disease rips through a city, a civilization collapses. When we finally uncover the ruins, we ask: What happened? The good news is, we've been here before. History is long, and people have already confronted just about every apocalypse we're facing today. But these days, archaeologists are getting better at seeing stories of survival, transformation, and even progress hidden within those histories of collapse and destruction. Perhaps, we begin to see, apocalypses do not destroy worlds, but create them anew. Apocalypse offers a new way of understanding human history, reframing it as a series of crises and cataclysms that we survived, moments of choice in an evolution of humanity that has never been predetermined or even linear. Here Lizzie Wade asks us to reckon with our long-held narratives of these events, from the end of Old Kingdom Egypt, the collapse of the Classic Maya, to the Black Death, and shows us how people lived through and beyond them—and even considered what a new world could look like in their wake. The more we learn about apocalypses past, the more hope we have that we will survive our own. It won't be pleasant. It won't be fair. The world will be different on the other side, and our cultures and communities—perhaps even our species—will be different too. Lizzie Wade is an award-winning journalist and correspondent for Science, one of the world's most prestigious scientific journals. She covers archaeology, anthropology, and Latin America for the magazine's print and online news sections. Her work has also appeared in Wired, The Atlantic, Slate, The New York Times, Aeon, Smithsonian, Archaeology, and California Sunday, among other publications.
