In this revisited episode, we have a very special show because we are celebrating the anniversary of Independent India, which fell on August 15th. Our special guest is Shukla Lal, a writer based in New Delhi, who has recently written a book detailing her personal experience from the partition that led to India's Independence. We hear the amazing story of her father's incredible escape in the midst of the violence and mayhem of the partition. Later in the episode, Shukla's daughter, Sonia Kullar, reads an excerpt from Shukla's book, Rano and Phulo.  IN THIS EPISODE: [01:50] Shukla and her new book on the 75th Anniversary of the Partition of India are introduced. [05:39] We hear about Shukla's family's experience before the partition and how her father escaped. [11:45] We learn how her true events are interwoven into her short story. [14:30] We explore how Shukla's story captures an India frozen in time. [18:50] Has India grown into the identity it desired after the partition? [21:16] We hear about the future of India and more about Shukla's written work. [24:57] An excerpt from Rano & Phulo written by Shukla Lal, and read by Shukla's daughter, Sonia Kullar  KEY TAKEAWAYS: Shukla and her family left for Shimla on holiday, never believing that they would not return to their home due to rising political and religious tensions, now known as the partition of India. Her book is based on her family's experience during this time. Following the partition, there was a renewed sense of nationalism and patriotism. It was also a time where women were leading out in entrepreneurship and contributing as business women.  India continues to rise and be recognized for its culture and ethics. Since the 60s and 70s it has grown from being a developing and poor nation to being a globally recognized and self-respecting nation.  Subscribe to Reenita's Storytelling Den on Substack for free!

As a child, she imbibed the beauty and diversity of this beautiful land – India, as her family moved from Amritsar, Lahore, Shimla, to the Central and Southern cities of Madras (now Chennai), Nagpur and Hyderabad and eventually found their anchor in Calcutta (now Kolkata) in the early-1950s. Over 40 years later, she moved to New Delhi to retire. Since catching the literary bug on her 80th birthday, Shukla has written two historical romance sagas, Floating Logs set in Kolkata (published by Notion Press in December 2019), and Rano and Phulo set in Undivided and then partitioned India (published by Goya Publishing in March, 2019), and a collection of poems, Meri Nazmon ka Ehsaas (soon to be published) all captured gamely on her iPad Notes App. She has finished the first draft of her third historical novel, Soul's Rapture, a mystical romance set in Lahore and Mumbai. She has also written several short stories. She was invited to write for the Chandigarh Tribune, and has been interviewed for the Reader's Digest, the Times of India, the Telegraph (Kolkata), and www.womensweb.com.

Too many frontline managers are promoted for hitting quota, then left to figure out leadership on their own. In this episode, Jeff Cummings, COO at LLC Attorney, shares a battle-tested coaching playbook built through 20+ years of leading high-growth teams. He challenges the “leadership lie” that there's no time for 1:1s and lays out a structured, repeatable framework that transforms one-on-ones from status updates into high-impact coaching sessions.Jeff walks through how to coach top performers without coddling them, how to use AI to scale personalized development, and why being a good manager has nothing to do with being in the deals. This episode is packed with practical guidance for CROs, RevOps, and enablement leaders looking to build durable revenue teams, starting with better coaching habits at the frontline.Key Takeaways1. The “Leadership Lie” is that there's no time for 1:1s.Jeff calls out the myth that leaders are too busy to coach; if you're too busy for your people, you're too busy to lead.2. One-on-ones should be structured, consistent, and focused on development, not deals.Effective 1:1s follow a repeatable process that goes beyond pipeline reviews to drive skill growth and accountability.3. Coaching should start with reflection by the rep.Asking “what went well?” first gives the rep ownership and builds a coaching culture grounded in self-awareness.4. Top performers need coaching, too, especially around behavior and professionalism.Being a high producer doesn't exempt someone from expectations; true leaders help reps round out their game.5. Managers must separate being in the action from building the team that drives the action.If you're still acting like a super rep, you're not creating leverage, and you're stunting team growth.6. Missed 1:1s should be rescheduled immediately, not skipped.Treat coaching like a customer meeting; canceling without rescheduling signals that people aren't the priority.7. AI can be used to scale coaching, not replace it.Jeff uses AI to track commitments, organize feedback, and personalize development, but the human connection stays central.8. Be fully present, no Slack, no inbox, no distractions.Undivided attention during coaching moments signals to reps that their development matters.9. Coaching isn't a task; it's a leadership mindset.Great leaders don't wait for permission to coach or train; they take ownership of their team's growth trajectory.10. Pay mentorship forward, build a legacy through people.Jeff credits his early mentors and reinforces that the best ROI in leadership comes from investing in others and teaching them to do the same.LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffcummings/

Pastor Anita taught from Nehemiah 3 that every believer has a place in building God's work, and we cannot build the Church while disconnected from each other. She reminded us that we must join the work, link arms in unity instead of pride, and take ownership of the mission God has given us. When God's people stay united in heart and purpose, the enemy has no room, and restoration cannot be stopped.

This sermon, "Undivided and Unbroken," explores the concept of integrity as a hard-fought virtue, not an intrinsic value. Using David's journey in 1 Samuel, it highlights how integrity is built through small, consistent choices and how it can be compromised by fear and rage. The sermon examines David's reaction to Nabal's insult, showing his initial lapse in integrity before being reined in by Abigail's wisdom. It also discusses how David's developing integrity is rewarded, as seen in his compassionate treatment of an abandoned Egyptian slave, which ultimately leads to a blessing from God. The central message is that integrity is a conscious, daily choice that aligns our human agency with God's character, leading to greater blessings and a louder, clearer connection to God's voice.

In this episode we are finish Luke 7 with a look at Luke 7:36-50. In this passage, Jesus is invited over to Simon, the Pharisee's house, and is encountered by the sinful woman. Together we again discuss the role of dependence in our lives and the importance of our undivided dependence on Jesus in everything we do. When our dependence is divided among multiple things, we find anxiety and fear, but when our dependence is focused on Jesus alone, despite the uncertainty around us, we can find true peace.

The post Living Undivided in a Fragmented World appeared first on Common Thread Church.

This sermon, titled "Undivided and Unbroken," centers on the theme that integrity is a hard-fought and difficult virtue, but one that ultimately wins the day. It defines integrity as being consistent in what you say, believe, and do, especially when no one is watching. The sermon uses David's actions in 1 Samuel 23-30 as a primary example, highlighting two instances where he had the opportunity to kill King Saul but chose not to, demonstrating his unwavering integrity and trust in God's timing. It concludes by presenting the idea that integrity is not just about avoiding temptation, but also about the blessings that come from aligning one's human will with God's, ultimately building trust and hope for others.

This week, Pastor Daniel Strosnider begins a series titled “Church 2.0.” Pastor Daniel goes deeper into The Book of Acts and how we are to live unhindered. We must have an undivided heart, undistracted eyes, and an unashamed ego.  For more information, visit our website: www.Kingdomemc.com.  #thisiskingdom #jesus #jesuschirst #sundaysermon #church #sermon #westvirginia

John brings us another message through 1 Corinthians 7:25-40, where Paul teaches that whether single or married, we are called to live with undivided devotion to God, making choices that prioritize His eternal kingdom over temporary distractions

A local school board candidate is being targeted by LGBTQ activists for hosting an event with unDivided. As far as the news is concerned, riots outside Portland ICE facility are just a ‘block party.' Homeowners seem perplexed why jugs of urine are showing up on their front lawns. Florida begins work on ‘Alligator Alcatraz.” 

What happens when we stop trusting God – and start making our own plans? As Pastor Natasja wraps up our miniseries, we shift from Colossians to the powerful story of Jeroboam, Ahab, Jezebel, Elijah, and the prophets of Baal in 1 Kings. It's a vivid picture of a divided kingdom … and divided hearts. Faced with uncertainty and fear, Jeroboam chose control over trust, leading Israel into syncretism – the blending of true worship with false gods. His compromise would ripple through generations, until Elijah stands alone on Mount Carmel, calling God's people back to wholehearted devotion. But this isn't just ancient history. It's our story too. When life feels dry, delayed, or desperate, how often do we turn to other sources of hope, mixing things into our faith that were never meant to be there? From the sins of Jeroboam to the warnings in Colossians, Scripture consistently challenges us to root out compromise and live fully devoted, undivided lives.

There's a unique joy that comes from finishing something meaningful. But what about the unfinished parts of our lives—the spiritual setbacks, the things left undone, the prayers unanswered? How do we keep going when faith asks more than we think we have to give?

Sometimes, we need to use a different word in order to let Grace in. In this meditation, I explore 'presence' as another name for Self, Oneness, and Reality—so we can deepen our somatic experience of the undivided now. Whether you're seeking peace, clarity, healing, or a sense of belonging, this inquiry invites you to rediscover Wholeness - not as something to achieve, but as something that we already ARE. Even pain becomes a doorway back into inclusion when we realize what holds it is inherently complete and loving. I don't want to add more words to our conceptual understandings, but challenge the assumptions we often make on this path, which can become what limits us from a deeper homecoming.

The new Trump presidency has led to pressure on the First Amendment, and the lines between free expression and political enforcement are blurring. Those who say speech is now freer argue that his actions are restoring viewpoint diversity. Those who argue it's more restricted argue it's a crackdown on speech that doesn't align with the administration's views, especially in Harvard's case. In partnership with the Cascades PBS Ideas Festival, we debate free speech's evolution in the Trump 2.0 era.

In the Kingdom of God, relationships aren't optional – they're essential. This week, Pastor Louis zooms in on something deeply human and deeply spiritual: relationships. From Paul's closing greetings in Colossians 4 to his bold call in chapter 3 to put off sins that divide, we're reminded that how we relate to others is a reflection of who we are in Christ. Even under house arrest, Paul's life overflowed with meaningful connection. Friends visited. Captors respected him. His relational world was full, even in chains. Contrast that with today's loneliness epidemic. The difference? Paul's life was anchored in Jesus and given over to something greater than himself. We'll explore: ✔️The beauty and challenge of Christian community. ✔️Why greed and idolatry aren't just personal sins – they fracture relationships. ✔️What it means to live with relational integrity in a divided world. ✔️How “the immoderate love of possessing” (Aquinas) pulls us away from love, purpose, and joy. ✔️And how the presence of Jesus makes a real, relational difference in how we live with one another. Let's live lives that are undivided, where our hearts are fully the Lord's and our relationships reflect His grace, truth, and love.

You can't live a resurrection life without first dying to the old one. Pastor Louis moves into the heart of Christian transformation in Colossians 3. Here, Paul gets practical in his letter, calling believers not just to believe in Christ but to become like Him. This means putting to death the old self: sinful desires, fractured relationships, disunity, and distorted sexual morality. In a world that encourages self-expression at all costs, Colossians invites us to something deeper: a life of death and resurrection in Jesus. Explore:

We're not just invited to believe in Jesus – we're called to be filled with Him. In Colossians 2, Paul confronts deceptive ideas that threaten to replace Christ with lesser cosmic claims, including legalism, mysticism, philosophy, and spiritual forces. He reminds the Colossians, and us, that we don't need to add anything to Jesus. Why? Because in Him, the fullness of God dwells, and we have been given fullness in Him. In this message, Pastor Louis explores Christian cosmology – the grand story of creation, fall, redemption, and restoration with Jesus at the very centre. It's not a tribal or partial Gospel. It's a universal truth for all of creation. You'll discover:

In this episode of our Sermon on the Mount series, we explore Jesus' call to devotion, undivided loyalty, and fearless trust. From fasting in secret to fixing our eyes on God instead of wealth, and seeking His Kingdom above all else, Jesus invites us into a life shaped not by outward performance but by faithfulness.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. And a big shout-out today to Jon Carr from Richmond, VA. Jon, thank you for being a part of this movement through Project23. You are making a difference for the Gospel. This one's for you. Today, we're looking at Mark 3:20-26: Then he went home, and the crowd gathered again, so that they could not even eat. And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, “He is out of his mind.” And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “by the prince of demons he casts out the demons.” And he called them to him and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end. But no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. Then indeed he may plunder his house. — Mark 3:20-26 Jesus couldn't even sit down to eat. I bet he feels like a mother of three at home without a husband who wants to lock herself in the bathroom to get five minutes of peace. I bet he felt like a manager who skips lunch to survive back-to-back Zoom calls. I bet he felt like a dad in the carpool line, answering work emails while refereeing a sibling war in the backseat. The house was full. The crowds wouldn't stop pressing in. But as the ministry was growing, so was the resistance. Even his own family thought he'd lost his mind. And the religious elite? They were now making accusations that went far beyond criticism. They said he was "possessed." Let that settle in for a moment. Jesus wasn't just misunderstood—he was accused of being aligned with Satan himself. Then Jesus speaks. But instead of defending himself with anger or argument, he pronounces a simple truth—one that cuts through both confusion and conspiracy: “If a house is divided against itself, it cannot stand.” It's a familiar phrase. One we quote often in politics. An adage we reference frequently in leadership. But Jesus wasn't talking about politics or corporate leadership. It was a reference to spiritual authorities. The claim itself was a logical fallacy—suggesting that a fallen creature like Satan could empower the One who casts him out. That demonic spirits serve the One who casts them out. The point Jesus was making was: You can't belong to two kingdoms. You can't walk in two directions. You can't claim spiritual power and ignore spiritual alignment. Because division doesn't just weaken things. It destroys them. That's true for nations. That's true for families. That's true for churches. That's true for hearts. When we live with divided loyalties—when we try to follow Jesus while clinging to sin, pride, or worldly thinking—we slowly collapse from within. Divided hearts drift. Whole hearts stand. Jesus calls us to wholeness—unity of heart, mind, and life. He invites us to live fully surrendered. To live all in for him. He's not asking for perfection. But he doesn't want your half-hearted allegiance. He wants all of you. A heart divided won't stand. But a life fully surrendered? That's where the kingdom of God breaks in with power. #DividedHouseCannotStand, #BindTheStrongMan, #WholeHeart ASK THIS: Where in my life have I allowed divided loyalties to weaken my faith? What “strong man” am I letting control my actions and decisions? How can I take practical steps today to bind that stronghold? What would wholehearted surrender to Jesus look like in my daily life? DO THIS: Examine one area of your life where you're divided and take steps today to surrender it fully to Jesus. PRAY THIS: Lord, I confess the divisions in my heart and ask you to bind every stronghold that opposes you. Fill me with undivided devotion to follow you fully each day. Amen. PLAY THIS: Undivided.

Portland’s Aurora Chorus is an inclusive, non-audition women’s chorus that formed in 1992 with the goal of elevating women’s voices through the art of choral music. Led for much of its history by renowned composer and conductor Joan Szymko , the chorus also emphasizes female conductors and composers as well. Rebecca Parsons has directed the chorus for the last few years and says one way this group is distinct from others is the simultaneous quality of the music and the community the women create together. The theme of this year’s International Women’s Day concert is “Undivided” and focuses on the mental health of young women. Parsons joins us, as well as soprano Jae Douglas, who has sung with Aurora since 2018.
