I'm excited to introduce a new podcast series created specifically for Gen Z-ers and the people who love them. Each episode features a real, honest conversation between me and my Gen Z co-host (who you will meet in today's episode) as we unpack what it actually looks like to follow Jesus in today's world… in college classrooms, workplaces, friendships, dating, online spaces, and everywhere in between. We explore faith not as a checklist, but as a way of life that shapes every decision, season, and struggle. Together, we tackle the challenging questions young adults are asking: How can you handle relationships, money, and big decisions in a way that honors God? What does it really mean to hear God's voice or experience God's presence? How can you live out your faith without caving to the pressures around you? What does it really take to build a faith that lasts? This podcast is for any young adult learning how to build a life with Jesus at the center, and for every parent, pastor, mentor, or friend who wants to better understand and support the next generation. Authentic, practical, biblical, and sometimes a little raw, this is where real life meets real faith. Join the conversation. Let's grow together. ABOUT: Lina AbuJamra is a Pediatric ER doctor, now practicing telemedicine, and the founder of Living With Power Ministries.

When Suuna Hassan and Madinah Babirah founded Masaka Kids Africana in the Masaka District of Uganda, they hoped to help a handful of orphaned children and other young people living on the streets. They had no way of knowing where their efforts would lead or that one day the whole world would be watching. Directors David Vieira Lopez and Oscar-nominated filmmaker Moses Bwayo (“Bobi Wine: The People's President”) join Ken on the pod to discuss this extraordinary organization, as well as the viral dance videos performed by the children of Masaka that caught the world's attention during the pandemic. David, who was a volunteer at the organization at the time, and Moses, who is himself Ugandan, teamed up to tell the powerful story behind this Internet sensation. To their credit, the filmmakers are just as impressed with what Nabirah and Ian, and other children of Masaka, have to say, as with the dance steps that made these kids famous. In a place where HIV/AIDS has afflicted many thousands of people over the years and left many young people orphaned, Masaka Kids Africana is not just a symbol of hope but a vibrant community that is actively changing young people's lives. “Masaka Kids: A Rhythm Within” will be released on Netflix on December 9th.

Brent Kaup (William & Mary University) and Kelly Austin (Lehigh University) come on the podcast to discuss their new book connecting disease and capitalism. They begin by discussing the financialization of America and link it as a cause of climate change. Financialization is also linked to diseases and specifically vector borne diseases through the suburbanization of areas such as Virginia. In parallel, Brent and Kelly also examine financialization in the context of malaria in Uganda, and how the increased exploitation of coffee created an environment that is more conducive to mosquitos, which coincided with a deterioration of the public health system. At the end of the interview, Brent and Kelly discuss how to do co-authorship.
Hii leo jaridani tukiendelea kukupa taarifa mbalimbali kuhusu siku 16 za kuhamasisha umma kutokomeza ukatili dhidi ya wanawake, leo tunaelekea Mjini Hoima Magharibi mwa Uganda kusikia hisia za wanawake kuhusu ukatili dhidi ya wanawake mtandaoni.Watu takribani 100,000 wamekimbia makazi yao kaskazini mwa Msumbiji ndani ya wiki mbili, huku Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia wakimbizi UNHCR likionya kuwa mashambulizi yanaongezeka na kuyakumba hata maeneo yaliyokuwa salama. Mwakilishi wa UNHCR, Xavier Creach, amesema mgogoro “unazidi kuzorota kwa kasi ya kutisha” huku familia zikikimbia usiku gizani wakati watu wenye silaha wakivamia vijiji vyao. UNHCR inasema linahitaji dola milioni 38.2 kukidhi mahitaji yanayoongezeka.Kaskazini mwa Asia, dhoruba za kitropiki na mvua zisizo za kawaida zimesababisha vifo vya mamia na watu wengi kukimbia makazi yao, imesema WMO. Clare Nullis, msemaji wa shirika hilo, alisema Indonesia, Ufilipino, Sri Lanka, Thailand na Vietnam ndizo zimeathirika zaidi. “Tunahitaji kuzingatia kuwa Asia iko hatarini sana kutokana na mafuriko,” amesema Nullis, akibainisha kuwa dhoruba karibu na Ekweta ni nadra na jamii hazina uzoefu wa kukabiliana nazo. Indonesia pekee, watu 604 wamefariki, 464 hawajulikani walipo, na 2,600 wamejeruhiwa, huku zaidi ya milioni 1.5 wakiathirika na 570,000 wakikimbia makazi yao.Wakati dunia ikiadhimisha Siku ya Kimataifa ya Kukomesha Utumwa leo Desemba 2 Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kazi Duniani ILO limeonya kuhusu kuongezeka kwa utumwa wa kisasa wa binadamu, likionesha kuwa watu milioni 10 zaidi walikuwa wakiishi katika kazi za kulazimisha au ndoa za shuruti mwaka 2021 ikilinganishwa na mwaka 2016. Makadirio haya mapya yanaweka idadi ya walioathirika duniani kote kuwa watu milioni 50 huku wanawake na watoto wakiendelea kuwa wenye hatari kubwa zaidi.Na katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili, leo mchambuzi wetu ni Dkt.

We also discuss the affects to the farming community when sustainability is not a priority.We also tell the story of how Crimson Cup worked with a group of farmers in Uganda to provide them the ability to roast coffee for the first time and make a difference in the process.Brandon grew up in rural Indiana and has a passion for farming and sustainability. He brings that passion to the work he does at Crimson Cup. After studying the culinary arts Brandon became a barrista and then a coffee roaster and educator.

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Heike Rath, der Gründerin des Lichtstrahl Uganda e. V. – einem Projekt, das seit 2010 mit Mut, Herz und Tatkraft im Norden Ugandas Hoffnung schenkt. Heike erzählt von ihrem Weg nach Gulu, von den kulturellen Unterschieden, den Herausforderungen nach Jahrzehnten des Bürgerkriegs – und von den Menschen, die sie dort geprägt haben. Wir sprechen über Bildung und medizinische Versorgung als Schlüssel für Zukunft, über Frauen und Kinder, die neue Perspektiven finden, und über eine Gemeinschaft, die zeigt, was echte Hilfe auf Augenhöhe bedeutet. Mehr als 140 ugandische Mitarbeiter:innen arbeiten heute im Lichtstrahl-Projekt – sie versorgen jährlich Tausende Patient:innen, ermöglichen Bildung und schaffen Lebensräume, in denen Zukunft wieder möglich wird. Ein Gespräch über Mut, Mitgefühl und die Kraft, aus einer Vision Wirklichkeit zu machen. Meine Takeaways Mut beginnt im Herzen: Heikes Weg nach Uganda entstand aus einer persönlichen Krise – und wurde zu einer Mission. Emotionale Intuition war ihr Kompass – sie führte sie durch Herausforderungen, kulturelle Unterschiede und Unsicherheiten. Respekt und Miteinander sind die Basis jeder Zusammenarbeit – nur auf Augenhöhe kann echte Hilfe entstehen. Bildung & Gesundheit sind die Schlüssel für Veränderung – besonders für Frauen und Kinder. Das einfache Leben lehrt Zufriedenheit: Glück misst sich dort nicht am Besitz, sondern an Gemeinschaft. Sicherheit und Stabilität sind keine Selbstverständlichkeit – Heike stand zwei Jahre unter Polizeischutz. Veränderung braucht Kontinuität: Das Lichtstrahl-Projekt wächst durch langfristiges Engagement, nicht durch schnelle Lösungen.

In this episode David F.K. Mpanga —lawyer, and author of The Politics of Common Sense — breaks down why many African societies struggle not with resources or intelligence, but with the absence of collective reason. We discuss Kampala's chaotic traffic, Uganda's 2026 elections, whether democracy can deliver common-sense leadership, the cultural clash between kingdoms and modern states, citizenship, exile, and the tension between law, power and identity in Uganda and East Africa.

In dieser Ausgabe des „Fernrufs“ legen wir auf zwei Inseln an. Zunächst bei Marco Meyer, der mit seiner ugandischen Frau auf Kreta gelandet ist. Er hat sich noch nicht ganz entschieden, ob es nicht doch wieder nach Uganda geht. Eines jedoch ist ziemlich sicher: Nach Deutschland geht es nicht mehr zurück. Die zweite Insel, die wir besuchen, ist ebenfalls eine griechische. Melanie Altenkamp wohnt mit ihrer Familie auf Nordzypern, dem türkisch geprägten Teil der Insel. Von ihr erfahren wir, wie normal einem die Spaltung einer Insel im Alltag vorkommen kann und dass es dort ein großes Potenzial für Bildungseinrichtungen gibt. (Wiederholung vom 11. November 2024)

In this tender and hope-filled conversation, Ginny sits down with beloved children's author Sally Lloyd-Jones, whose Jesus Storybook Bible has shaped the spiritual childhood of millions of kids (including the Yurichs'!). Sally shares her remarkable backstory - being born in Uganda, growing up in East and West Africa, going to boarding school at age eight, and how God used both beauty and early wounds to form her as a writer. She and Ginny talk about her brand-new book Jesus, Our True Friend: Stories to Fill Your Heart with Joy, and what it means to write children's stories that are playful, deeply theological, and never “dumbed down.” Along the way, Sally explains the heart behind unforgettable phrases like “extra super holy people,” why Jesus' first miracle at a wedding is all about restoring joy, and how good children's books quietly preach hope without ever becoming preachy. The conversation also turns deeply personal as Ginny shares the painful story of her family being kicked out of their church after raising concerns about a youth pastor who was later arrested on multiple felony charges. Together, she and Sally reflect on spiritual abuse, disillusionment with “extra super holy” leaders, and the miracle of God still meeting children directly in the middle of heartbreak. Ginny tells how her youngest daughter found comfort and theological clarity in the Joseph story from the Jesus Storybook Bible, using Sally's words to interpret her own church trauma and see God's redemption at work. From bullied kids to exhausted “Martha” moms, from online mobs to stone-throwers in Scripture, this episode is a balm for anyone who needs to remember that Jesus is a true friend who loves us before we ever “get it right", with a never stopping, never giving up, unbreaking, always and forever love.

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
This lecture explores the provocative question: Can magic stop wars? Drawing on historical and cross-cultural sources, we examine how rituals and spells have been used not merely as private acts of devotion but as technologies of politics, resistance, and reconciliation. From the Assyrian Maqlû tablets and Egyptian execration rites, to the Wiccan “Cone of Power” against Hitler and the modern #MagicResistance movement, we uncover how ritual has been mobilised to defend rulers, resist tyranny, and shape the course of events.The lecture also turns to reconciliation practices such as the Acholi Mato Oput in Uganda, Hawaiian ho‘oponopono, and Arab-Islamic sulha, showing how communities have ritualised the difficult work of forgiveness and the transformation of enmity. By analysing these cases, we see how ritual externalises conflict into material or symbolic form, such as burned effigies, bitter drinks, and shared meals, so that violence can be reframed, managed, or dissolved.CONNECT & SUPPORT

Welcome to GRCAM Monthly Virtual Interactive Conference, I'm your host Emmanuel Barbee. I am the Founder, President and CEO of (GRCAM) the Grass Roots Community Activist Movement. It does not matter how bad I would like to get my Christian business up and running in Chicago with out financial support from the Black Grassroots and the Global African Family then I am unable to do my God given assignment. For 34 years I have sacrifice my life trying to recruit like minded Black Americans in Chicago and online to work with me in turning my vision and plan to help improve Black Chicago and yet still to this day I am on first base this is unacceptable ladies and gentlemen.Global African Family if you are serious about me expanding my Christian business to the African continent then first please purchase my e-book and read my story. If you agree with my vision and plan to help improve Black Chicago then you will automatically become a GRCAM Member. Please help me get my revised book on the best seller's list so that the Black world would take our cause seriously. Secondly, encourage African Immigrants who live in the United States of America from 10 African nations: South Africa, Kenya, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, Angola, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana and Nigeria to work with me. This will help speed up the process. The reason African Immigrants are able to reach their American dream is because of my ancestors who fought and died during the Civil Rights Era to help get African Immigrants, Afro-Caribbeans and other non-White Immigrant groups to come to this country. They have access to Education, Immigrant loans, Housing and Employment. The Vision of GRCAM is to build a bridge between the African American community and the African Immigrant community. Our main objective for Black Americans who become GRCAM Members is for them to heal from this Slave mentality imposed on our people by the White Supremacist Financial Elites. And for African Immigrants who become GRCAM Members to heal from this Colonized Mindset imposed on them by the White Supremacist Financial Elites. GRCAM Members will build the best African American business within the United States of America. The Grass Roots Community Activist Institute of Chicago. In GRCAI of Chicago, both groups will learn how to respect each other's culture, learn how to trust one another, learn how to do business with each other so that we can replicate this business model on the African continent. We want the Diaspora to invest in the people, the culture, help assist in building the infrastructure, and bring business development to Africa and viceversa for Native Africans to do international trade with our people within the low income African American community in order for their to be a win win situation for both groups.We host these Zoom Live Event on the last Saturday of the month in order to interact with our listeners and to raise funds for our film project (Hood Liberator Made In Chicago The War Against Willie Lynch Begins). We're using three crowd funding sites: GoFundMe, Buy Me A Coffee and PayPal Giving Fund. Our objective is to raise $250 thousand dollars then we will encourage GRCAM Members who are part of our Film Project Team to come to Chicago so that we can begin hosting auditions for a role in the film etc .. Once we get this film project fully funded and made I want to make sure that Sister Rena will be well taken care of then I plan on turning the business over to my management team and lead by example by applying for dual citizenship in South Africa. My focus is on legacy building. #NotAnother34Years #M1

When we live grateful and thankful lives, it changes everything! Our perspective on the world and the things that God has done for us completely shifts. Pastor Mark talks about this, and more, during our Thanksgiving One-Shot message. **********
How do we live with eternal purpose? How do we as God's people, live a life well lived? How do we "prepare our yes"? Let's look at what it means to make one choice at a time as we follow the plan that God has for our lives. Pastor Dalton brings us the last message in our "The Office" collection of talks.**********
Welcome to GRCAM Monthly Virtual Interactive Conference, I'm your host Emmanuel Barbee. I am the Founder, President and CEO of (GRCAM) the Grass Roots Community Activist Movement. It does not matter how bad I would like to get my Christian business up and running in Chicago with out financial support from the Black Grassroots and the Global African Family then I am unable to do my God given assignment. For 34 years I have sacrifice my life trying to recruit like minded Black Americans in Chicago and online to work with me in turning my vision and plan to help improve Black Chicago and yet still to this day I am on first base this is unacceptable ladies and gentlemen.Global African Family if you are serious about me expanding my Christian business to the African continent then first please purchase my e-book and read my story. If you agree with my vision and plan to help improve Black Chicago then you will automatically become a GRCAM Member. Please help me get my revised book on the best seller's list so that the Black world would take our cause seriously. Secondly, encourage African Immigrants who live in the United States of America from 10 African nations: South Africa, Kenya, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, Angola, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana and Nigeria to work with me. This will help speed up the process. The reason African Immigrants are able to reach their American dream is because of my ancestors who fought and died during the Civil Rights Era to help get African Immigrants, Afro-Caribbeans and other non-White Immigrant groups to come to this country. They have access to Education, Immigrant loans, Housing and Employment. The Vision of GRCAM is to build a bridge between the African American community and the African Immigrant community. Our main objective for Black Americans who become GRCAM Members is for them to heal from this Slave mentality imposed on our people by the White Supremacist Financial Elites. And for African Immigrants who become GRCAM Members to heal from this Colonized Mindset imposed on them by the White Supremacist Financial Elites. GRCAM Members will build the best African American business within the United States of America. The Grass Roots Community Activist Institute of Chicago. In GRCAI of Chicago, both groups will learn how to respect each other's culture, learn how to trust one another, learn how to do business with each other so that we can replicate this business model on the African continent. We want the Diaspora to invest in the people, the culture, help assist in building the infrastructure, and bring business development to Africa and viceversa for Native Africans to do international trade with our people within the low income African American community in order for their to be a win win situation for both groups.We host these Zoom Live Event on the last Saturday of the month in order to interact with our listeners and to raise funds for our film project (Hood Liberator Made In Chicago The War Against Willie Lynch Begins). We're using three crowd funding sites: GoFundMe, Buy Me A Coffee and PayPal Giving Fund. Our objective is to raise $250 thousand dollars then we will encourage GRCAM Members who are part of our Film Project Team to come to Chicago so that we can begin hosting auditions for a role in the film etc .. Once we get this film project fully funded and made I want to make sure that Sister Rena will be well taken care of then I plan on turning the business over to my management team and lead by example by applying for dual citizenship in South Africa. My focus is on legacy building. #NotAnother34Years #M1
It's Friday, November 28th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes written by Jonathan Clark and heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. Filling in for Adam McManus I'm Ean Leppin. (Contact@eanvoiceit.com) New Anti-Conversion Laws in India According to Persecution.org Police in the northwestern Indian state of Rajasthan recently registered the first case under the state's recently enacted anti-conversion legislation against two missionaries. The Christians were accused of carrying out religious conversions at a gathering through “allurement,” according to media reports. After registering the case on Nov. 20, police issued notices to the two missionaries – Chandy Varghese from New Delhi and Arun John from Kota – claiming they promoted conversion and baptised several people during a three-day program known as ‘Spiritual Satsang' at Beersheba Church in Kota. Police investigated after videos and social media clips surfaced showing event speeches and activities. Several youths allegedly announced from the stage that they put their faith in Jesus Christ and were baptized, while calling upon others to adopt Christianity. Rajasthan is one of 12 states in India that has strict anti-conversion laws. A first information report (FIR) was registered by the police after complaints were lodged by hardline Hindu groups active in controlling Christian activities. 2 Thessalonians 3:2-3 That we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith. But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. Christians in Uganda Threatened Despite Freedom of Religion Laws A Sudanese Christian family in Uganda is living in fear after Muslim extremists from Sudan and Somalia threatened to kill them. Safaa Yousif, who fled her native Sudan to Uganda due to conflict and religious persecution in 2016, received a text message from an anonymous number threatening to kill her family. Muslims from Somalia have also threatened her. Yousif said she once gave discipleship classes to new converts, and a Somali Muslim who had put his faith in Christ was kidnapped and tortured by his co-religionists from Somalia and Sudan. Somalia is ranked 2nd on the Christian support group Open Doors 2025 World Watch List of the 50 countries where it is most difficult to be a Christian. Its constitution establishes Islam as the state religion and prohibits the propagation of any other religion, according to the US State Department. It also requires that laws comply with Sharia Principles, with no exceptions in application for non-Muslims. The threats on Yousif's family in Uganda were the latest of many instances of persecution of Christians in Uganda. An interesting fact to consider is that Uganda's constitution and other laws provide for religious freedom, including the right to propagate one's faith and convert from one faith to another. Muslims make up no more than 12 percent of Uganda's population, with high concentrations in eastern areas of the country. Pray that the Yousif family be reminded of the words of Jesus in Acts 1:7-8 It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit as come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria and to the end of the earth. New hurdle in James Comey case The prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey hit another hurdle last Wednesday as the Justice Department encountered mounting questions about how the case was presented to a grand jury for indictment, reports the Associated Press. The development risked further jeopardizing a politically charged prosecution already subject to multiple challenges and demands for its dismissal. It came during a hearing in which Comey's lawyers asked U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff to throw out the case on grounds that the government was being vindictive and as a separate challenge to Lindsey Halligan, the hastily appointed and inexperienced prosecutor who secured the indictment, is pending. The Justice Department's acknowledgment under questioning from a judge that the full grand jury did not review a copy of the final indictment is the latest indication of its seemingly disjointed pursuit of a criminal case against one of President Donald Trump's political enemies. Comey was fired by Trump in May 2017 while overseeing an FBI investigation into potential ties between Russia and Trump's 2016 campaign. The two have been publicly at odds ever since. New Exoskeleton Suit is Accomplishing Miracles At a Canadian wellness center, a unique robotic exoskeleton is allowing children with developmental disorders to walk-often for the first time. The nonprofit's Regina location in Canada is eager to get families to come and try it out. It can be used to correct a child's gait or help them take their first steps, and is suitable for a variety of conditions including spinal cord injuries and cerebral palsy. Good News Network reports that the First Steps Wellness Center in Canada received the Trexo exoskeleton out of the goodness of someone's heart! The $100,000 machine was donated to help children like Leo, a boy born with a rare genetic disease which left him a prognosis that walking would be impossible. But, latched into the Trexo walker at First Steps, his mother Anna has watched her son learn to walk and develop a musculature that has him able to take steps on his own. ANNA: “He does a few steps right now by himself, and with Trexo, I'm pretty sure he'll be able to do more steps in the future, once we start using it more often.” There are currently 6 Trexo exoskeletons sold and in use today. After a few sessions, how is Leo doing today? ANNA: “He can walk! You know, be part of everybody else, like walk like other kids. So, it's kind of- It's unique. He did amazing. I have butterflies. I can't believe [this] thing even exists!” Despite the 6 figure price tag it is the hope that more of the Trexo walkers will be made available in Canada and the US.

Everyone wants to be happy. Don't you? Yet happiness seems one of the most elusive feelings in the world for most people. One of the most shocking and powerful aspects of the apostle Paul was his ability to live happy. This guy didn't fake it. He didn't hide it. He didn't struggle with it. He simply found the secret to happiness and couldn't wait to share it with us. While the whole letter of Philippians is aimed at joy, this last lesson focuses in on happiness and how to achieve it. This is gold and it's ours for the taking in Christ Jesus! Discussion Questions: How did Paul always rejoice? Can you remember the definition given for contentment? How would you define contentment? Do you remember the five (or some) obstacles to contentment? What hinders you from contentment? What are some things you practice to grow in contentment? Social media is one of the obstacles to joy in modern life. How's your relationships with social media and in what ways do you need to make changes to it? Consider these thoughts and write down what comes to mind. Jesus + nothing = everything. Contentment is the bold affirmation that my Father knows best. We're all going to go through various seasons in our life. The key to joy is to learn what Paul learned, which is to be content.

Ep 136 is personal.I'm back behind the mic after six life-changing months. I became a girl dad. I traveled to Africa for the first time and delivered my first TEDx talk in Uganda.

I talk about killing hustle culture, choosing intention over pressure, and building a life that feels aligned, not forced. I also break down the Shadow Line Principle and how one tiny shift can unlock real growth in your life and your business.If you are rebuilding, recalibrating, or trying to grow with more intention and less noise, this one is for you.Let's talk life.Let's talk growth.Let's talk about the tiny shift that changes everything.And let's celebrate your friendly neighborhood Strategy Hacker® giving you perspective once again.Tune in.

Confronting the paralyzing question that plagues every leader, parent, and dreamer -"How do you know if you are on the right path?" - McKay challenges the common misconception that clarity must precede action. He argues that confidence is not a prerequisite for starting, but a result of "walking the path" and leaning on proven principles rather than fleeting fads.McKay opens with Kiva co-founder Jessica Jackley, who discovered her purpose through a single connection in Uganda rather than overwhelming data. He then spotlights Bill Courtney, a coach who rebuilt a team by valuing character over the scoreboard. The episode weaves in lessons from NFL legend Jerry Rice and McKay's own career pivot to Idaho to illustrate the power of proven principles. It concludes with his daughter's story, illustrating that clarity often arrives only after we commit to the journey.Main Themes:Clarity is found by walking the path, not by waiting for certainty.When the destination is unclear, rely on "proven principles" like character and discipline.True happiness comes from "self-concordance" - aligning goals with internal values, not external pressures.The sign of the right path is peace, not comfort; comfort is ease, but peace is alignment.Direction often comes through "small miracles" and quiet confirmations rather than dramatic signs.Failure isn't a stop sign; it's "fertilizer" for your growth and potential.Top 10 Quotes:"Rarely do we know with absolute certainty that we're on the right path. We start something new without certainty, hoping that it's right, but often unsure.""Character is what you do when no one is watching.""Stick with the critical activities. The self-assurance you get from doing so will carry you through the less-than-clear times.""Comfort means ease. Peace means alignment.""Peace says, ‘I might be struggling, I might be working hard, but I know I'm in the right struggle.'""God will give you some signs. And those signs come in the form of people, encouragement, moments of clarity, or a feeling of certainty.""You have to walk down the path of uncertainty a bit... you have to try the thing on and start as if you're going to do it, and then you find the answer.""Start walking, give it your all, and soon you will know.""Failure can be good. It's fertilizer.""The difficult road you are on is a purposeful road to help you rise to become more like your Maker."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen
