Podcasts about trusting

What if new parents aren’t failing, but simply unsupported? Morgan sits down with Michelle Pool, nurse at Maven Clinic and the person behind One Minute Milk Bites, for an honest, deeply validating conversation about breastfeeding, postpartum mental health, and why modern parents feel so overwhelmed. Michelle shares her own journey from struggling new mom to lactation expert, breaking down why breastfeeding can feel impossibly hard, how baby instincts actually work, and why the “breast is best” messaging has caused more harm than help. Together, they explore postpartum depression, the loss of the village, C-sections vs. vaginal birth, and the quiet identity shift that happens after a baby arrives. This episode is for: New and expecting parents Partners who want to show up better Anyone who’s ever wondered, “Am I doing this right?” If you’ve ever felt alone, unsure, or like you’re not enough, this conversation is your reminder: your best is good enough, and you are the perfect parent for your baby.

What does it look like to live daily—and throughout the day—under the influence of the Holy Spirit? In this message, we explore how a Spirit-filled life is shaped by intentional responsiveness to the Spirit's work within us. A heart open to the Spirit experiences freedom, life, and transformation that honors God and impacts others.Key Points: 1. Submitting: submitting to the Holy Spirit's lordship and leadership in your life 2. Listening: listening to the Spirit's written word and to His inner prompting 3. Obeying: obeying what the Spirit is telling you in thought, word, and action 4. Trusting: trusting that following the Spirit will honor God and bless others and youThis sermon invites us to examine our hearts and consider what it means to live continually influenced by the Spirit—today and every day.

What if balance is a lie and self-care does not look anything like Instagram told you it would?  In this powerful and refreshingly honest episode of Whinypaluza, host Rebecca Greene sits down with writer, speaker, activist, and mom of eight Elisha Beach for a real conversation about motherhood, burnout, and why the idea of “having it all” is complete nonsense. Elisha shares the moments that broke her open, including a very public mommy meltdown, clinical burnout, and the pressure to put everyone else first. Together, Rebecca and Elisha unpack what self-care actually looks like in real life, how guilt sneaks in, why villages matter more than ever, and how moms can reclaim control without adding another impossible to-do list item. This is the episode every overwhelmed parent did not know they needed.Six Key Takeaways→ Balance is not real, and that is not your failureElisha explains why the idea of perfect balance sets moms up to feel like they are always falling short → Burnout does not mean weakness Clinical burnout is real and often comes from prioritizing everyone else for too long →Self-care must fit your season of life What works for one mom may not work for another, and that is exactly the point → Guilt can exist without running the show You can feel guilt without letting it dictate how you treat yourself → Your village is bigger than you think Support can include people, systems, services, and small choices that reduce mental load → You are the expert in your own life. Trusting yourself is the most important form of self-care there isMemorable Quote“Balance does not exist. You just choose what you are going to focus on and let the rest fall off for a bit.”About the GuestElisha Beach is an experienced speaker, writer, and professional mom of eight. She went viral in 2015 after sharing a raw photo of breastfeeding her daughter while on the toilet and has been unapologetically telling the truth about motherhood ever since. A former staff writer for Scary Mommy and founder of The Mom Forum, Elisha is a Certified Strategic Planner who helps moms create realistic self-care practices without guilt. She is the author of The Mom Selfcare Planner and the upcoming book Balance Is Bullsht The Truth About Motherhood and Self Care* releasing November 11, 2025. If this episode made you feel seen, heard, or even a little less alone, share it with another parent who needs permission to stop chasing perfection.

Through all of the ups and downs in David's life, he clings to the promises of God. In the end, God comes through on His promises, like He always does. We hope this comes as a great encouragement to you as you turn into the new year.

Sermon Summary: Joshua – Session 11 (Ending the Year Right)   God Calls His People to Possess What He Has Given As the land is divided in Joshua 17–18, God reminds Israel that the inheritance already belongs to them—but they must rise up and take possession. Delayed obedience, fear of opposition, or spiritual passivity keeps believers from fully walking in God's promises. Incomplete Obedience Leads to Future Struggles Some tribes failed to fully drive out the Canaanites, choosing compromise instead of obedience. What is tolerated today often becomes a snare tomorrow. God calls His people to remove what competes with devotion, not manage it. Faith Requires Action, Not Excuses When tribes complained about limited territory, Joshua challenged them to get up and do the work. God had already given them power, but they had to act in faith. Blessing follows obedience, diligence, and courage—not passivity. The Lord Is Our True Inheritance The Levites received no land because the Lord Himself was their inheritance. This points to a greater truth for believers today: our ultimate reward is not earthly security but life with God. Like Abraham, believers are called to live as pilgrims, prioritizing spiritual inheritance over temporary comfort. God Is a Refuge for the Guilty and Broken The cities of refuge reveal God's mercy. Long before sin occurred, God provided a place of safety. These cities foreshadow Jesus Christ as our refuge, where sinners can flee for forgiveness, protection, and restoration. Salvation Must Be Received, Not Ignored A refuge only saves those who run to it. Jesus is God's provision for sin, but each person must choose to enter. Trusting in goodness, effort, or delay is dangerous—Christ alone is the safe place. A Call to Renewed Commitment As the year closes, the sermon challenges believers to: Be honest with themselves Reject spiritual sluggishness Recommit to disciplined faith Place God first without reservation The message closes with hope: when all hope seems lost, the Lord shows up. God remains faithful, and those who trust Him will find safety, purpose, and victory in Him.  

Beautiful soul, this episode is for anyone who has lost someone they love, asked for a sign from Heaven, or wondered if their loved ones are still near. Julie is joined by Mike, who shares deeply personal and unmistakable angel stories following the loss of his best friend. Through dreams, nature, synchronicities, and messages delivered through others, Mike's experiences offer powerful reassurance that Spirit communicates in ways that are meaningful, precise, and impossible to dismiss. Together, they explore how loved ones often come through when we least expect it, why Spirit uses dreams and signs differently for each person, and how trust in these moments can bring grounding, strength, and a profound sense of being supported. This episode is a reminder that Heaven is not far away and that love continues to guide us from the Other Side.

What does it really look like to follow Jesus completely and wholeheartedly in the new year? Maybe you've felt spiritually complacent or maybe you are seeking Jesus—but you want even more of Him. More intimacy. More obedience. More surrender. More purpose. In today's episode, we're talking about how to follow Jesus wholeheartedly, not through pressure or perfection, but through a daily lifestyle of grace-filled devotion.  Whether you're listening on January 1 or March 1, this conversation is meant to leave you encouraged, stirred, and excited to walk into this season with more of Jesus. As the episode unfolds, we'll go deeper and deeper into what it looks like to live a surrendered, Spirit-led life with Christ. In this episode we talk about:  • Why taking Bible reading SERIOUSLY changes everything • How Christian fellowship brings healing, accountability, and growth • Developing a daily prayer life that's intentional and natural • Learning to pray for God's leading—and how to discern His voice • Trusting that God has purpose for you right where you are • How to fall more in love with Jesus through remembrance • What radical surrender really looks like (decisions, fears, and secret sins) LINKS:  • New Year's Guide: https://mailchi.mp/fbe0f363b092/christianewyear • Get 15% off Hosanna Revival (undated WOOHOO!)

I can't quite believe that yet another year of us going on Wise Walks together has come and gone. In our last episode, I invited you to reflect on your previous Word of the Year, and I've been doing that too. Looking back, I can see how my word, Co-create, supported me in ways I couldn't have fully anticipated at the time. Sometimes we choose a word with a clear sense of direction or intuition about what will help us feel more aligned and in our True Stride. When I think about why this practice matters to me, I always come back to the idea of choosing a word for the year not as something to achieve, but as something to lean and live into. A word that helps me stay grounded when things feel uncertain and reminds me of who I want to be when life gets messy. As this new year begins, I found myself slowing down and really asking what kind of support I need right now, not just externally, but from within. On today's Wise Walk, I invite you to explore what a Word of the Year might look like for you. I share the word that emerged for me after reflecting on the past several years and what it means to create the conditions for growth, even when life feels transitional. Together, we'll consider how a single word can act as a quiet compass, helping us stay aligned, rooted, and open to what wants to unfold next. As you reflect on where you've been, where you are now, and how do you want to show up? What word best captures that intention for you this year? Is there a word you want to embody more fully, whether it feels literal and clear or more like a feeling or essence that you're drawn toward? Do you give yourself permission to let one word, or perhaps a few words, or a mantra, gently guide you through the coming year? What word could serve as a navigational star for you, grounding and centering you when things feel rocky or out of alignment? Looking back over the past five years and the seasons that shaped you, what feels ready to carry you into what's next? What word might help you transform, open, or root yourself in ways that feel aligned with who you are becoming? Which areas of your life feel most important to focus on right now, whether physical, mental, spiritual, or relational? Can you choose one word to serve as a steady reminder of how far you've come and where you're headed next? And as you acknowledge the work you've already done, how can you honor your continued growth and unfold it with compassion and trust? I look forward to going on this epic adventure with you in the coming year and blooming in ways we can't even expect right now. Trusting that it will unfold naturally. As always, I would love to hear what you took away from today's episode.  Feel free to reach out and share. Then tune in to next Thursday's Wise Walk for another conversation. Until then, happy, happy New Year. In this episode: [03:37] Upon reflection, the idea of opening myself up to further possibilities washed over me. For the last 5 years, I've been going inward and looking for words that would help me grow. [04:44] I give myself permission to choose again and wonder what the possibilities are if I open myself up. [05:38] There has been a tending to my inner self, so my outer self can show up the way it's meant to. Co-create supported me last year, and this year the word that popped up for me is bloom. [06:06] Bloom is tending your garden and appreciating nature's growth from the soil nourishing a seedling, to growing and flourishing. [07:01] I love that this word means that I'm going to put some roots down even in my transitional stage. [10:03] Another cool thing about the word of the year is that many others including striders like yourself are going on this journey with me. [11:03] Thank you so much for listening, and I look forward to going on this adventure with you in the coming year! Memorable Quotes: "Blooming isn't about pushing or proving. It's about creating the conditions that allow growth to happen." - Mary Tess "You don't have to know exactly what's coming next to trust that something meaningful is unfolding." - Mary Tess "A word for the year isn't something to chase. It's something to return to when you need grounding." - Mary Tess "Sometimes the most powerful growth happens quietly, beneath the surface, long before we see the bloom." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

Trusting yourself in business sounds simple, but in practice it can feel complicated. Especially when you are capable, prepared, and still hesitating at the moment it matters most. In this solo episode, we unpack what audacity really looks like for Black entrepreneurs. Not the loud or performative version, but the quiet conviction it takes to move without guarantees, stop self editing, and let your own judgment lead even when the outcome is uncertain. This conversation is for the entrepreneur who knows they are ready, but keeps waiting. Waiting for better timing. Waiting for more confirmation. Waiting until it feels safer. DURING THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: Why hesitation often shows up after you've done the work, not before How self editing quietly costs Black entrepreneurs opportunities before a "no" is ever given What audacity looks like in everyday business decisions, not viral moments How to tell the difference between seeking perspective and avoiding responsibility Why waiting for certainty keeps you stuck in preparation mode How to rebuild trust in your own judgment one decision at a time Thank you so much for listening!

In this episode, we explore a counterintuitive finding from the 2025 National Confidence Study: the pressure to constantly improve may be eroding confidence rather than building it. We unpack the data behind comparison, confidence fatigue, and the growing belief of "not enough," including why this mindset is especially heavy at the start of a new year. You'll hear how performance psychology explains the link between pressure and insecurity, why mastery builds confidence more effectively than endless goals, and how the Learn–Burn–Return™ framework helps you move forward without abandoning who you already are. We close with a grounded reflection question and a confidence-building power phrase to help you start the year with clarity, not comparison. Power Phrase: "I build confidence by honoring who I am and not by chasing who I think I should be." Quote of the Week: "Rest is not falling behind. Reflection is not stagnation. Trusting your current path is not complacency." - Cindra Kamphoff   To view the Oprah Daily article, go here: https://www.oprahdaily.com/life/wholeness/a69822509/learn-burn-return-reset/ To download our full study report, visit: confidencestudy.com To Request a Free Breakthrough Call with a Mentally Strong Coach, visit: http://www.freementalbreakthroughcall.com/ To learn more about the Mentally Strong Institute, visit: https://mentallystronginstitute.com/ To learn about Dr. Cindra Kamphoff's speaking and coaching, visit: https://cindrakamphoff.com/ To follow Dr. Cindra on Instagram, visit: Cindra Kamphoff, PhD (@cindrakamphoff) • Instagram photos and videos

Hey friend, I've been sitting with this past year—and not in a highlight-reel kind of way. The kind where you get honest about what it actually felt like. The kind where you notice patterns you didn't want to admit were still there. The kind where you realize… your body and your gut knew things long before your mind caught up. In today's podcast episode (Part 1), I'm sharing what this year revealed to me: what surprised me what stretched me what I ignored longer than I should have and how I've been learning to listen to my intuition again Not the loud, anxious voice. The quiet, steady knowing in your gut. This episode isn't about fixing anything. It's about awareness. Because you can't release what you won't first acknowledge. If you've felt tired, conflicted, or like something's been “off” but you couldn't name it—this one's for you. Give yourself permission to pause. The clarity comes when we stop rushing past ourselves.   Here are a few questions to ponder: If this past year had a theme, what would it be? When did my body or intuition try to get my attention this year? What did I know early on but talked myself out of? Where did I abandon myself this year? What did I tolerate that quietly drained me? What am I carrying that no longer fits who I'm becoming? Have questions for me? Let's set up a call. Email me at michelle@setfreesisterhood.com

Be A Warrior: Closing Season Five, Trusting What Comes Next As I sit down to record this episode, it honestly feels surreal. This is the final episode of 2025 and the close of Season Five of Be-YOU-tiful Adaptive Warrior. Five years. 210 episodes in all! When I say that out loud, it stops me in my tracks a little. What started as a quiet nudge on my heart has grown into something that now feels woven into my life, my healing, and my purpose. My 2025 year in review If you've been with me on this journey for a while, thank you. Truly. You are part of this family. And if you're new here, welcome. I hope you'll stick around—because Season Six starts next week, and I can hardly believe I get to say that. When I launched this podcast, I didn't have a master plan. I wasn't chasing perfection, production polish, or algorithms. I was chasing meaning. My prayer from the very beginning was simple: If this reaches one person—if it brings hope, peace, or strength to someone in the middle of chaos—then it's worth it. This podcast exists because of my faith, my lived experience, and the road that brought me here—one that forever changed on December 19th, 2018. That was the day I chose an elective above-knee amputation after five years of failed surgeries following a taekwondo accident. Five years of fighting my own body. Five years of pain, loss, and unanswered questions. My TaeKwonDo time, pre-amputation If you've never heard my full amputation story, I shared it back in Season One. And honestly, as I step into Season Six, I may revisit it again—because time gives perspective, and perspective gives depth. My first full year as an amputee was 2019, and I set goals like my life depended on it. And in many ways, it did. I hit every single one. I skied again. I surfed. I water skied. I hiked. I rode horses. I proved to myself, my doctors, my family—and maybe the world—that I wasn't disabled. I was differently abled. But once I checked every box, something unexpected happened. I felt empty. That emptiness wasn't failure—it was calling. I realized I wasn't meant to keep all of that hard-earned wisdom to myself. I wasn't meant to just do life again. I was meant to share it. That's where this podcast was born. I'll be honest—I don't love listening to myself talk. I don't script these episodes. I don't cut out the pauses or clean up the edges. There's an intro, there's an outro, and everything in between is real. I show up as a mom, a wife, an amputee, a human still figuring it out. This podcast is raw on purpose—because life is raw. As this year closes, we're also shifting seasons symbolically. If you follow the Chinese calendar, we're leaving the Year of the Snake and entering the Year of the Horse. And if you know me at all, you know how much that resonates. Horses have become central to my healing and my heart. As a little girl growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, I dreamed of horses, but access and finances made it unrealistic. Life had other plans. It wasn't until after I lost my leg that horses came back into my life in a powerful way. I reached out to a friend who worked with rescue horses, and something clicked—deeply and instantly. That connection led me to become certified in horse training, advanced training, and most recently equine therapy. Horses taught me regulation, presence, trust, and stillness in ways nothing else ever had—especially after trauma. Now, I work with people who are searching for grounding, healing, and reconnection to their bodies, especially after limb loss. The Year of the Horse represents freedom, movement, soul searching, and wellness. And honestly, I can't think of a better theme for what's ahead. I don't know exactly what this year will bring—but I know I'm ready to meet it. If you've followed me for any length of time, you know I don't believe in New Year's resolutions. I think the phrase itself sets us up to fail. Words carry power. When we label something as temporary or flimsy, our minds treat it that way. By February, resolutions fade, gyms empty out, and people convince themselves they'll “start again later.” So instead, I believe in fresh starts. Turning a page. New perspective. And one of my favorite end-of-year rituals is choosing a word—or a short phrase—to guide the year ahead. Not a checklist. A compass. Last year, my words were ‘Be Present’. And those words carried me through one of the most challenging years of my life. In May, I traveled to Boston to see if I qualified for an experimental procedure and revision surgery. In June, I had surgery. July through September were filled with healing, setbacks, crutches, fittings, and learning my body all over again. Through it all, I stayed present. I documented the journey. I let myself feel it. And when the holidays arrived—busy, beautiful, chaotic—I stayed present there too. I soaked up baking, gift-making, family moments, and even the exhaustion. I welcomed January's slower rhythm with gratitude instead of guilt. This year, my word found me quietly—in church, listening to our pastor speak. My word for the coming year is ‘Trust”. That word is heavy in the best way. Trusting the process. Trusting the people around me. Trusting my body as it continues to change. Trusting God's timing—even when it doesn't match my own. I like control. I like schedules. I like certainty. And trust requires letting go. It's a trust fall—stepping back and believing you'll be caught. My prosthetic journey is still unfolding. My leg continues to change. A new socket is likely coming soon. Nothing feels finished or neat right now—and that's okay. This year, I'm choosing to stop forcing outcomes and start allowing space. If something is meant to be, it will unfold. And if it isn't, that doesn't mean it was a failure. Sometimes closed doors are protection. Sometimes the blessing only makes sense in hindsight. So here's my invitation to you. As we sit in this quiet space between years, I want you to choose a word or phrase of your own. Something that speaks to where you are—not where you think you should be. Be honest. Reflect. Meditate on it. Ask yourself where you struggled this year and where you want to grow—not from shame, but from curiosity. Write your word down. Put it somewhere visible. Make it your screensaver. Stick it on your mirror. Tell someone you trust. Accountability matters. Growth requires reflection—and sometimes reminders. And remember this: you are not meant to be at the same place as everyone else. We rise and fall at different times so we can lift each other when it's needed. Start with yourself. Speak kindly to yourself. Life is too short for your own inner voice to be your harshest critic. You are already enough. Growth is not about fixing yourself—it's about expanding into who you already are. As I close this chapter, I want to thank you for being here. For listening. For trusting me with your time and your heart. If this podcast gave you even one moment of hope or clarity this year, then it has done its job. Season Six is coming. New challenges are coming. A virtual race is on the horizon. And the Year of the Horse is inviting us forward—with strength, freedom, and trust. Until next year—keep showing up, keep listening to your heart, and trust the process. And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!! Much love,

Hello my friend, Have you ever quietly wondered, "Why do I feel different?" Not better. Not worse. Just… different. I've carried that question most of my life—and this year, I received an answer I didn't expect. In my latest podcast episode, I share a very personal experience: a soul life regression with Dr. Linda Backman that helped me understand why I am the way I am—and why so many intuitive, sensitive, purpose-driven people feel out of place in the world.

In today's episode, I'm reflecting on the liminal space between the end of one year and the beginning of the next—the hazy “in-between” where routines fall away, time feels weird, and it's tempting to either over-hustle with resolutions or completely check out. I explore how this in-between mirrors our financial journeys, where growth is rarely linear and the quiet, uncertain seasons often hold the most potential for clarity, healing, and new stories around money. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you loved this episode, please take a moment to follow, rate, or review Money Isn't Scary — it helps more women find these much-needed conversations.

As another year comes to a close, we're reminded of how little control we truly have over the future—and how much peace we find when we stop trying to carry it ourselves. Rooted in Matthew 6:33, this episode invites us to step out of anxiety and into trust by choosing to seek God's Kingdom first.Reflecting on the past year and looking ahead to an uncertain future, this message explores what it means to release control, love God and others sacrificially, trust the Lord one step at a time, and let go of what's behind so we can press forward into what God has next. The future may be unknown, but the invitation remains the same: seek first the Kingdom and trust the King who is fully in control.Support the show

In this episode, Paul and I explore different ways people approach God, the often unseen work of ministry, and the tension many churches feel between caring deeply for people and pursuing growth. We talk about authenticity in study and preaching, trusting in the transforming power of new life in Christ, and choosing contribution over criticism.Quotes for Notes:“In the end, if you're going to impact people, you've got to link together what you're learning, and studying, and preparing with the authentic, real-life situations of the people that you are teaching.”“You have got to count on the new life. You've got to believe that the new life can deliver on the promise of God that you will be a new person, that you can go on to holiness, that righteousness is real.”“We've got to realize that in order to be fulfilled in our spiritual experience, I think, we've got to move away from what do I get out of all of this to what can I contribute in service to others?”Links:Help for Holiness: https://www.amazon.com/Help-Holiness-Rediscovering-Resources-SanctificationHoliness Reconsidered: https://www.amazon.com/Holiness-Reconsidered

ACIM with Denise. https://www.newparadigmoflove.org/#trust #trusting and the Ego Jevon Perra explained that learning to trust God, the one power manipulating and directing life, allows for rest because all challenges are directed by God for one's highest good. The lack of trust stems from the ego, which includes not trusting oneself or feeling inadequate, which Jevon Perra stated is the untrustworthy and "not good enough" ego (00:03:06). They invited participants to trust their "higher self" and develop the awareness to distinguish between the ego and the peaceful movements of the Holy Spirit (00:04:19).Perception, Cause, and Effect Jevon Perra discussed how a lack of trust is associated with the expectation of an external effect needing to happen for them to reach a desired state, such as gaining possessions to be at peace or achieving respect after learning enough (00:04:19). They highlighted the teaching that perception is learning and cause and effect are never separated, suggesting that the suffering comes from the belief that a specific external effect must happen (00:05:55). Jevon Perra also suggested naming the ego, sharing that their ego's name is Dorca, to create separation and to not take the ego's fear-based, trouble-causing actions seriously (00:07:04).Trust, Expectation, and Surrender When in trust, Jevon Perra noted that they let go of all their "rackets" and expectations, including the meaning of what is happening (00:08:34). Kristen shared that this concept feels like having "split personalities" between the true self and the ego, and confessed that their rage stems from going off emotions rather than trusting God (00:09:36). Jevon Perra emphasized that the ego is arrogant and thinks it knows everything, but the reality is that surrender and trust in God's governance are necessary to experience the "kingdom of heaven on earth" (00:13:07).Trust in Difficult Circumstances and Medical Treatment Kristen, who was starting radiation that day, discussed how the "not knowing" triggers them and turns them into a different person, but they must trust the process and believe that the experience is their path. Jevon Perra suggested that the doctors and medical staff are operating through the mind of God and that trust should be placed in God's directive, noting that even if we do not like the circumstances, the ultimate purpose is love (00:10:40) (00:15:35). Jevon Perra also shared a personal story about their son being shot at while in Iraq, where God invited them to live in the present moment and assured them of their presence if the worst happened, encouraging Kristen to trust that God will be with them through their challenges (00:28:53).The Process of Undoing and Developing Trust Jevon Perra referred to the stages of trust development as the "period of undoing," where things that were always meaningless, such as material things, identity, and security, are removed from one's life (00:20:44). Kristen acknowledged the difficulty of trusting the process, especially when taking time off, noting that confronting the ego is uncomfortable (00:24:37). Jevon Perra recommended that Kristen look into a detox with a holistic practitioner in Mission Viejo to get the radiation out of their system more quickly (00:25:49).Ego Awareness and Practical Tools Jevon Perra emphasized that willingness to change directions and be governed by the Holy Spirit is the only requirement for moving from fear to trust (00:32:20). They also highlighted that awareness of the ego's predictable patterns and strategies is 80% of the work toward awakening and suggested using the Enneagram, which profiles the ego, to learn about its fixations and core beliefs (00:34:22). Jevon Perra concluded by offering to text Kristen contact information for the holistic practitioner and links for the Enneagram test, suggesting a future discussion about their results (00:37:19).

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Revelation 18 An angel descends from heaven with great authority, and the earth is illuminated by his glory. He declares the fall of Babylon, calling it a dwelling for demons and a prison for every unclean spirit. Babylon is condemned for her pride, immorality, and corrupt influence over the nations. A voice from heaven urges God's people to come out of her so they will not share in her sins or plagues. Her destruction comes quickly, and kings, merchants, and sailors mourn her fall because she once brought them great wealth and power. Yet no one can save her. Babylon is thrown down with violence, never to rise again. Heaven rejoices, for God's judgment is fair, holy, and true. Her fall is a warning not to trust in earthly riches or corrupt power.  Trusting in wealth, luxury, and worldly power is a dangerous foundation for life. What appears secure and impressive can collapse in an instant. The world often values success, riches, and influence, but God sees the pride and corruption behind it. When judgment comes, those who gained from evil mourn their loss, not because of love, but because their comfort is gone. God calls His people to live differently, to separate from what is impure and temporary. We are called to live with integrity, humility, and eternal purpose. Earthly riches will fade, but God's kingdom endures. Our hope must rest in Him alone. Let us pursue what is holy, knowing only what is built on Him will truly last.  Holy Lord, You are righteous in all Your ways and worthy of all praise. You see through every illusion of wealth and power. Help us not to be deceived by the temporary glory of the world. Teach us to value what is eternal and to walk in purity and truth. Call us out of anything that pulls our hearts away from You. Give us wisdom to live with integrity and strength to turn from sin. May we trust in Your justice and rest in Your promises. Lead us to honor You with our lives as we wait for Your everlasting kingdom.  Thought Questions: What worldly influences are you tempted to trust in over the Lord, and how can you shift your hope and allegiance fully to Him? How do you respond when God directs you to separate from things that are comfortable or convenient but are spiritually harmful? Do you believe that God's judgment will remove all the evil powers of this world? How should your daily choices today reflect that belief?

“He's not happy because he's rich, he's rich because he's happy!”Consciousness is money and money is just consciousness. Prosperity is the result of a faithful consciousness. And consciousness like attitude is your mental approach (your thoughts and feelings) to life. Feelings aren't facts: they are indicators. They're indicators of our consciousness: our present thoughts and the direction we are headed. Trusting in Good = happiness. And Happiness indicates you are in alignment with your greater good, you're walking with God.

Send us a textYear-end conversations get real fast when you measure a year by people, not projects. We sat down with Pastor Mark to trace God's fingerprints across 2025—sending out a new church plant, welcoming guests from around the world, celebrating dozens of baptisms, and watching a young woman meet Jesus and start serving kids with contagious joy. We also faced hard moments head-on: losses, strained marriages, and the wear and tear of a world that doesn't always make room for hope. Through all of it, the refrain was steady: Jesus is near, Scripture is sure, and the Spirit helps us endure.From there we pivot to what's next. Our theme for 2026 is drawn from Zechariah 4:6: not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit. That line isn't a slogan—it's our strategy. We unpack a balanced, biblical vision of the Holy Spirit that avoids hype and honors His person and work. Think deep prayer, Scripture illuminated, gifts used to build up the church, and everyday mission with supernatural help. We'll preach through Zechariah, learn from Acts—the real “Acts of the Holy Spirit”—and keep planning hard while holding plans loosely, ready for God's “left turns” that lead to better fruit.We also celebrate a powerful act of generosity: a $218,000 in one offering, given by the whole church family from kids to grandparents, fueling missionaries, church planters, and local partners. Generosity is how our hearts follow God's heart, and it turns encouragement into action for people on the front lines. As we look ahead, we're asking God to deepen our dependence, widen our witness, and make our church a signpost that points past us to a great God.If this resonates, follow along: subscribe, share this with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review to help others find the conversation.

In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Monique Lindner — a late-identified Autistic woman whose life once revolved around relentless achievement, overwork, and endurance.Monique was a high-performing systems thinker, corporate leader, and entrepreneur who learned early how to push through trauma, chronic pain, sleep deprivation, and sensory overload. What finally cracked the façade wasn't a dramatic breakdown — it was a slow unravelling, followed by a single, unexpected question from her book editor that sent her down a ten-month path toward understanding her neurodivergence.Together, Angela and Monique explore late identification, masking, Autistic burnout, trauma, friendship loss, unmasking, psychic pattern-matching, and what happens when you stop explaining yourself and start protecting your nervous system.

On this special Christmas Day episode of the Real Life Runners Podcast (Episode 441), we slow things down and explore a different side of running — one that goes far beyond pace, mileage, or goals.Today's conversation invites you to see running as a spiritual practice — a space for reflection, waiting, preparation, and renewal. Drawing inspiration from spiritual traditions like Advent, we talk about what it means to trust the process, honor seasons of growth (and rest), and show up with intention, not just in running, but in life.We share personal reflections on how discipline can become a form of devotion, how movement can reconnect us to our bodies, and why some of the most meaningful progress happens when we stop forcing and start listening. Whether you view spirituality through a faith-based lens or simply as a deeper connection to yourself, this episode offers a gentle reminder: your body is wise, your journey matters, and you don't have to rush to become who you're meant to be.As you move through the holiday season — and into whatever comes next — we hope this conversation encourages you to run with presence, trust where you are, and step forward with courage and compassion for yourself.00:16 Spirituality and Running01:49 Running as a Higher Practice06:00 Advent and Running08:51 Trusting the Process17:33 Discipline as Devotion27:22 Body as a Gift29:43 Unlocking Your Body's Potential30:21 Shifting Perspectives on Fitness31:48 The Infinite Game of Health and Fitness34:04 Embracing Numerology and Spirituality35:48 The Symbolism of Years and Traditions39:31 Reflecting on Life's Transitions46:15 Running as a Devotional Practice47:03 Meditation and Presence in RunningJoin the 30 Day Running Reset and get a plan that will help you build a strong and injury-proof body by combining running and strength training in a way that actually works for runners like you.Gain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.
