Podcasts about true greatness

We're closing out our 10-part Wellness Series with a conversation that couldn't feel more fitting. Today's guest is my friend Brad Stulberg, who returns to the podcast to talk about his new book, The Way of Excellence: A Guide to True Greatness and Deep Satisfaction in a Chaotic World. I read this book over the past couple of months and finished it on the plane heading to a busy week of interviews at the running event, and I genuinely felt more grounded and prepared because of it. Brad has been on the show many times, and I always leave our conversations with tangible takeaways for how to live and lead better. He's the author of The Practice of Groundedness, Master of Change, Peak Performance, and The Passion Paradox, and he brings such a thoughtful, practical lens to ambition, growth, and fulfillment. In this episode, we talk about caring deeply, the inevitability of failure, and why caring, even when it opens us up to heartbreak, is still worth it. We also touch on goal setting as we head into a new year and how to think about excellence in a way that's sustainable and meaningful. I hope you love this conversation as much as I did and that it leaves you feeling encouraged as we wrap up this series. Check out Brad’s work and pre order his newest book at BradStulberg.com What we talked about: December as a natural season for reflection, and the tension of “ramping down” while launching something big The Way of Excellence and how excellence can be a mindset you practice, not just an outcome you achieve “Brave New World” as a fear-to-curiosity reframe for big moments (races, interviews, parenting, hard lifts) Curiosity vs fear, and why curiosity helps you perform better (and feel better) under pressure Caring deeply as the cost of stepping into the arena, and why “too cool to care” is actually insecurity Excellence as heartfelt (not robotic) and a critique of “pseudo excellence” culture and optimization obsession Cold plunges and “hacks”: what's legit, what's hype, and when hard things are useful vs unnecessary Identity and the “house with rooms” metaphor (runner, parent, creative, partner) so one setback doesn't collapse your whole sense of self Reading vs short-form video for attention, cognition, and emotional health, plus habits that support focus New Year goals: why resolutions fail, and how values-based goal setting helps you climb the right mountain Sponsors: Eternal This entire Wellness Series has been made possible by Eternal, a science-backed preventative health company for people who take their health and training seriously.

I found a post from one of my favorite character actors from my childhood - Anson Williams, who played Potsie from the awesome show “Happy Days”. This post centered around the tragedy of Rob Reiner and his wife being killed over this past weekend.  It also brings to mind the sad and troubling examples of violence & evil with two high profile shootings this past weekend as well. It brings a reminder (sadly every day it seems we are being reminded) that the world needs to do better. What I mean by that is the people of the world need to do better. Anson's quote he shares coming from Rob is this:  “True greatness isn't just what you create — it's how you lift everyone around you while doing it.”  I know that if we examine a little deeper about what we are doing here with our time on earth, what our calling, purpose, burn, etc., is; along with how what we are doing affects other people. Is it helping them or hurting them? Is it encouraging or discouraging? Is it lifting others up, or constantly putting them down? Is it making this world a better place or making it worse along with our legacy?  We can do better. We must do better. I'm first in line looking to do better AND knowing I have to. I have plenty of room to improve in so many ways. How about you?   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Sermon: Ang Pagiging Servant Ni Christ: A Pattern For True Greatness Series: God's Perfect Servant Speaker: Rev. Michael Cariño Scripture: Mark 10:32-45 Naghahanap sina James at John ng mga posisyon ng karangalan, habang si Hesus naman ay nakatuon sa mga paghihirap na darating. Ngayong Linggo, itinuturo ni Rev. Mike Cariño na ang tunay na kahulugan ng kadakilaan ay hindi nakabatay sa kasikatan o sa palakpak ng tao, kundi sa kahandaang magsakripisyo at maglingkod. In today's passage, James and John were seeking positions of honor, while Jesus focused on the sufferings to come. This Sunday, Rev. Mike Cariño says the true essence of greatness is not based on glory and prestige, but rather on the willingness to sacrifice and serve.

Sermon by Andrew Flowers on December 7, 2025.Key scripture: John 13:1–17, Philippians 2:5-7, 1 John 1:9Jesus, knowing the cross was hours away, bent low to serve, even the one who would betray Him. In John 13, we see not just an act of love, but a pattern for how His grace transforms our posture toward others.

Sermon by Ant Frederick on December 7, 2025.Key scripture: John 13:1–17, Philippians 2:5-7, 1 John 1:9Jesus, knowing the cross was hours away, bent low to serve, even the one who would betray Him. In John 13, we see not just an act of love, but a pattern for how His grace transforms our posture toward others.

In ‘True Greatness and the ransom’, visiting speaker Andy Arscott looks at Mark 10:35-45 Andy preaches on the stark contrast between worldly ambition and Kingdom greatness. Focusing on the request of James and John to sit at Jesus’ right and left hands, the message highlights how the disciples still misunderstood Jesus’ mission, seeking glory while He was marching toward suffering. The preach culminates in the definition of true Christian leadership: self-sacrificial service, modelled by Jesus giving His life as a ransom. How do we apply this Bible teaching practically? In the Church: We must resist the “climbing” mentality. If you want to be great in the church, pick up a towel, not a title. Look for the unglamorous tasks (setting up chairs, cleaning, caring for the unnoticed). In Relationships: The root of conflict (like the ten disciples getting indignant) is often self-glory. The cure is looking at the Cross. When we realize how much we have been served by Jesus, our demand to be served by others melts away. The post Andy Arscott: True Greatness and the Ransom first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.

Fr. Mike discusses our call to deny ourselves and take up our cross, specifically focusing on God's call to renounce all that is ours and trust in him. He also highlights the story of Mary and Martha and encourages us not to allow the cares of life to choke the life of God out of our lives as Martha allowed her troubles and anxieties to do. Today's readings are from Luke 9-10 and Proverbs 26:4-6. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

This sermon was preached by Philip VanderWeide at Covenant Fellowship Church on November 9, 2025. Series: What a Savior! - Seeing Jesus in the Book of Luke Scripture: Luke 22:24-30

The Rebbe expresses surprise at a long silence, urging renewed involvement in spreading Chassidus and communal life. He blesses that the upcoming wedding take place promptly, advising focus on spiritual and qualitative greatness rather than lavish expense, for true blessing and lasting joy. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5817

Luke 9:37-50

Send us a textThe sacrifice of Christ is a world changer. It will change anybody's world! Jesus demonstrated what true love is when He gave Himself for us and He teaches us what true greatness really is. You may be surprised that the world you live in and what it calls greatness is far from what God considers to be great. And yet, you have the ability to achieve this gretness, should you so desire.

In this episode we feature a talk by Dave Jensen on John 19 and Jesus' death on the cross. It was a talk delivered to enquirer's and guests to a midweek church service, and serves as a great example for how to preach the Gospel effectively and winsomely. Questions answered in this episode: - Why did Jesus die on the cross? - Does Jesus' death matter to me? - Why did Jesus say 'it is finished'?   Got a question about John's Gospel?

The stadium had 4 permutations and hosted several sports over its years with some wonderful history.Our Hall of Famer this week is pitcher Warren Spahn. This one was another laugher and Spahn is a no doubt hall of famer, but just how ridiculously impressive was he?In our singlular parting shot his week discuss the overblown HOF cases for a current pitcher and a current hitter with baffling buzz for Cooperstown.Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials with Judge and Stanton for T-Mobile, Buster Posey for Topps cards, and Jon Miller for Dick's Sporting Goods.Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small.

In Luke 9:46–48, right after Jesus speaks of His coming betrayal, the disciples argue about who among them is greatest—a striking picture of human nature. Jesus responds by placing a child before them, showing that true greatness isn't found in power, rank, or recognition, but in humility and in welcoming the least and overlooked. In God's kingdom, greatness is measured not by status or wealth—what the world treasures most is as ordinary as pavement in heaven—but by service, love, and grace. Real greatness is found in following Jesus with humility and lifting up those society ignores.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

Last Sunday, we saw Jesus heal a boy possessed by an unclean spirit in Mark 9:14-29 after the disciples failed to cast it out. The boy's father cried out honestly, "I believe; help my unbelief," acknowledging his faith mixed with doubt, and Jesus taught the disciples that their failure stemmed from not depending on Him through prayer — they were trying to serve in their own strength. Jesus had previously spoken of His death and resurrection and told the disciples that they must deny themselves and take up their cross (8:31-38). In Mark 9:1-12, the Father told three disciples to “Listen to Him.” Yet they have struggled with Jesus' teaching about His death. This Sunday, we continue in Mark 9:30-41 as Jesus heads toward Jerusalem. Coming off the disciples' failure, Jesus privately teaches the disciples again about His betrayal, suffering, death, and resurrection — referring to Himself as the Son of Man from Daniel 7. Still, they don't understand because they're preoccupied with their own greatness, arguing about who's the greatest. These disciples are chasing status, control, and glory, like we often do today with our idols of control, comfort, and significance. Jesus models true greatness through His sacrifice, being delivered by the Father to die for our sins, as it says in Isaiah 53, but the disciples miss it, letting their preconceptions cloud His words. Misunderstanding Jesus and the gospel distorts how disciples understand what following Him means. When we embrace our worth and identity in Jesus' death and resurrection, we find an unsurpassed greatness, which is then expressed in humble service — being last and the servant of all. Jesus illustrates this by embracing a child, a picture of the insignificant with no status, and says receiving such a one in His name is receiving Him and the Father. It's not about worldly gain but denying oneself from the strength of our gospel identity in Christ. Then, when John complains about an outsider casting out demons in Jesus' name — something they couldn't do in the previous passage — Jesus says don't stop him. Rather than assume their service is greater than others, they should rejoice when Christ is glorified, no matter who does it, because anyone not against us is for us. Even small acts like giving a cup of water in His name will be rewarded. True greatness comes from the gospel and is expressed as His people serve for His glory. I. True Greatness Is Modeled In Jesus' Sacrifice (v. 30-32) II. True Greatness Is Expressed in Humble Service (v. 33-37) III. True Greatness Prioritizes Christ's Glory (v. 38-41)

Today on Bridging the Gap we'll talk about greatness from a Biblical perspective - what Jesus Himself said about being great in the kingdom of God. Now, I'd love to be able to hit like Shohei, or hit the ball a mile like Judge, but wouldn't you rather be considered great by God Himself? Our scripture text is Mark chapter ten.

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley continues out series in Mark's gospel by looking at what Jesus said about true greatness. In this section of scripture we've looked at our passions, and then our possessions, and today we'll look at our position in the kingdom of God. Join us in Mark chapter ten

What makes someone truly great? In this final message from the life of Joseph, Stephen Davey walks through Genesis 46–50 and identifies seven defining marks of true greatness. These are not the things the world rewards—fame, wealth, or control—but the quiet qualities of godly character. You'll learn how Joseph used authority with humility, administered honestly, grieved openly, and forgave freely. Even in his final days, Joseph looked ahead with confidence in God's promises. He wasn't just a powerful man—he was a faithful one. Stephen highlights Joseph's leadership during a national famine, his care for his broken family, and his grace toward those who betrayed him. More than once, Joseph had the chance to take revenge or seek comfort. Instead, he chose service, forgiveness, and faith. You'll also hear how Joseph's decisions mirrored Jesus Christ, the true model of greatness. Like Jesus, Joseph used his power to save others. He was humble, visionary, and trustworthy—even when no one was watching. This episode isn't just a summary—it's a call to action. Do you want to be great in God's eyes? Start with character, not influence. And finish with faith, not applause.

Jesus demonstrated true greatness by taking the place of a servant in his life and in his death.
