Happy Sunday! We hope you all remembered to change your clocks forward if you are in the US (unless you live in Arizona you lucky ducks)!  This week we are discussing an ALC that we received from NetGalley called Fake Flame by Adele Buck! We want to thank NetGalley for allowing us to listen to this novel in exchange for our full and honest review, and as usual we do not sugar coat anything.  If you want to make sure you are keeping up with all the goings on for the podcast make sure you follow our socials here! Summary:  You can't fake heat like this… To an observer, hauling a baby grand piano onto a college quad to publicly serenade an ex might seem like a romantic gesture. To literature professor Eva Campbell, it's the latest manipulative move by a cheating jerk who won't take a hint. Plus, she never liked that song anyway. Setting the piano on fire might be an overreaction, but Eva's at the end of her rope, at least until hot young firefighter Sean Hannigan talks her down. And that's not all Sean does. Soon he's offering to be Eva's fake boyfriend to get her creepy ex off her back. Unexpected, maybe, but there's something about Sean—beyond the angelic face and take-me-now body—that makes Eva say yes. Sean battles infernos for a living, reads romance on the side and is a straight-up, family-loving good guy. Eva's not sure she's ready for the danger he poses to her jaded heart. Given their differences, a relationship can't last, right? But the line between fake and real keeps blurring, daring her to take the biggest risk of all… Fake Flame is a spicy, fast-paced romance you can read in one sitting.

“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.” - Psalm 127:3 Children are a precious gift from God—an inheritance to cherish and steward well. Along with the joy of welcoming a new baby comes a new layer of responsibility, including financial decisions that can shape your family's future. A thoughtful checklist can help bring clarity and peace during a season that is both beautiful and demanding. Here are several key financial steps to consider after bringing a newborn home. Add Your Baby to Health Insurance In the midst of sleepless nights and constant diaper changes, don't forget to update your health insurance. Most plans allow about 30 days after birth to add your baby to your policy. While reviewing your coverage, confirm that pediatric care, vaccinations, and potential hospital visits are included. The birth of a child qualifies as a life event, meaning you can make necessary adjustments to your plan. Review Your Life Insurance Coverage Life insurance is essential for parents—not for the baby, but for you. A common guideline is to carry term life insurance equal to at least 10 times the primary breadwinner's salary. Don't overlook the caregiving spouse either. Replacing the cost of childcare, household management, and daily care would be significant, making coverage for both parents wise and necessary. Update Your Budget A new baby brings new expenses—and often quickly. Consider creating a dedicated “baby” category in your budget to account for diapers, wipes, clothing, feeding supplies, and medical needs. You may need to shift funds from other areas to stay balanced. Planning now can ease stress later and help you adjust as needs evolve. Create or Update Your Will A will is not just about distributing assets—it's where you designate a guardian for your child. While this can feel like a difficult decision, having a plan in place is essential. After prayerful consideration, choose someone who would care for your child with wisdom and love. You can always revise your decision later. A clear will can also prevent confusion or conflict and ensure your assets pass according to your wishes. As Proverbs 13:22 reminds us, “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children.” That inheritance includes not only finances but also a legacy of faith and stewardship. Strengthen Your Emergency Fund If you don't already have an emergency fund, aim to save three to six months of living expenses. If you had one before your baby arrived, you may need to increase it to reflect higher monthly costs. Unexpected medical bills, job changes, or major purchases—such as strollers or childcare—can quickly strain finances. A strong emergency fund provides stability during uncertain moments. Update Your Taxes and Withholding With a new child, you can claim an additional dependent on your tax return, which may qualify you for a child tax credit of up to $2,200 per child. You'll also want to update your W-4 at work so your withholding reflects your new household size. This may increase your take-home pay throughout the year. Begin Education Savings Starting early can make a significant difference. A 529 plan allows tax-free investment growth for qualified education expenses, including private K–12 schooling, vocational training, and college. You can open a plan in any state, and family members or friends can contribute to it. New options like the Trump Accounts opening up in July of 2026—are government-seeded investment accounts designed to support future education, business startup costs, or homeownership—are also expanding the ways families can plan ahead. Protect Your Child's Identity Finally, consider placing a credit freeze on your child's file with the major credit bureaus. This simple step can help guard against identity theft and prevent unauthorized accounts from being opened in their name. Stewarding the Gift Welcoming a child is one of life's greatest joys—and one of its greatest responsibilities. Financial preparation won't eliminate every uncertainty, but it can create stability and margin for what matters most: loving your child and pointing them toward Christ. As you plan, remember that the ultimate inheritance you pass on is not financial—it's a legacy of faith, wisdom, and trust in the Lord who provides for every season. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: How can I evaluate whether a ministry is a wise place to give? I've received appeals from the Far East Broadcasting Company about outreach into North Korea, but I don't know how to vet them. At 70 and 75, after health and job setbacks, we want to steward about $30,000 wisely for our kids and 15 grandkids. We're not experienced investors—what's the best way to handle this at our stage of life? I began Social Security at full retirement age but still work full-time. My benefit hasn't been recalculated despite higher earnings. Who can help me resolve this—an agency or an attorney? After downsizing and paying off debt, we have a manageable mortgage and solid savings. Should we pay extra to pay off the mortgage quickly, or keep the payments and focus on saving and enjoying this season?

In this episode, Dr. Killeen reflects on a powerful idea about preparation and uncertainty. In dentistry, not every procedure goes according to plan, and the real advantage is not predicting every scenario but developing the mindset to handle whatever comes your way. He shares thoughts on staying calm when things get bumpy and focusing on the next best step instead of the perfect one. Resilience is a skill you can build, both individually and as a team.

What happens when a viral app asks you to think of “death,” “scared,” or “answers” and then sends you to a random point on the map? We take a clear-eyed tour through Randonautica's strangest stories—EVPs in bright daylight, a rusted car on an ATV trail, a roadside fence lined with burnt dolls, and the headline-grabbing Seattle suitcase case—while asking whether intention steers chance or chance fills in our intentions.We break down what the app claims to do, how users set intentions, and why vague prompts can turn ordinary spaces into ominous ones. You'll hear how urban explorers landed at an abandoned house and met the police, why a couple's “scared” prompt ended with a white Mustang following them, and how a simple word like “orange” pointed to traffic cones. Along the way, we separate plausible coincidences from obvious fakes, explore how social media rewards the most extreme narratives, and consider the psychology that makes pattern recognition feel supernatural when fear is high and expectations are set.This isn't just a reel of shock stories. We talk risk, ethics, and practical safety: go in daylight, bring friends, avoid private property, and choose neutral or positive intentions if you're going to try it at all. Curiosity has value, but it also needs boundaries—especially when “random” routes can drop you into real danger or legal trouble. If you've ever wondered whether an app can bend fate, or whether we're just very good at finding meaning in the margins, this conversation will give you a grounded framework to think about both.If you enjoy thoughtful, spooky explorations with real-world takeaways, follow the show, share this episode with a curious friend, and leave a review to tell us what intention you'd set next.

When you're raising a child with complex medical needs, the early years can feel like one long stretch of survival mode. Hospital stays, surgeries, therapies, and constant uncertainty loom large over everything.For Cindy, that uncertainty started before her son Thoren was even born. After a routine ultrasound raised concerns, her family began a medical journey that would eventually reveal not just one rare condition, but a genetic mutation so uncommon that Thor was one of the first documented cases in the world. In this episode, Cindy shares the story of Thor's early years: surgeries shortly after birth, years of hospitalizations, and learning how to advocate for his medical needs again and again. She also talks about the emotional side of caregiving: the grief that shows up in unexpected moments, the challenges of navigating medical systems, and the complicated transition that happens when survival mode finally begins to ease. Plus, she shares her thoughtful perspectives on the importance (and difficulty) of including Thoren in as many places as possible and why that can prove to be so difficult sometimes.Finally, a big thank you to our sponsor for today's episode, Huckleberry Hiking!

Transcript:Da: Nyhavn var dækket af et tyndt lag sne.En: Nyhavn was covered by a thin layer of snow.Da: Luften var kold, men frisk, og solens svage stråler gav de farverige bygninger et glitrende

When life doesn't unfold the way we expected, it can cause us to question God's love and His kindness. In seasons of sadness and disappointment, today's podcast reminds us that the Lord is still at work—bringing good on our behalf and glory to His name.   In this episode, Lauren Kelly, who shared at our Vestavia, Alabama live gathering, vulnerably tells the story of an unexpected journey. From being a single young adult to becoming the wife of a widower and the mother of three children, Lauren faced the challenges of stepping into grief, loss, and the feeling of living life in a fishbowl. Along the way, she also experienced the heartbreak of two miscarriages.   Through it all, Lauren has seen how God brings beauty from hard places. Her story reminds us that while we aren't promised an easy life, we are promised a God who is our comfort, strength, and ever-present help.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "Not one of all the LORD's good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled." Joshua 21:45   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Where are you letting your eyes focus on your feelings and expectations rather than on the goodness and kindness of God? Get your eyes focused on God's Word and Who He says He is. _________________________________________________________ Listen to a similar story: Episode 201- Jimma Smith: "Working All Things for Good"   Join us for our Stories of Hope luncheon on March 11th in Birmingham (registration ends March 9th)!   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Lauren and any of our past storytellers!   Join us "In the Room" on Patreon to access new stories straight from our live gatherings around the country!   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series~ Stories of Hope, Stories of Freedom, Stories of Faith Are you interested in one-on-one coaching with our very own Robyn Kown!?  Click HERE!   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.  

Reacting to low Spring run production, a new piece being added to the outfield puzzle, and how an imbalanced roster could have off-field implications.

Atlanta leads the nation in canceled home purchase agreements, and the financial consequences for buyers are significant. Jeff Emalaba, founder and CEO of InvestFusion, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to explain how InvestFusion centralizes risk indicators into one platform, giving buyers a clearer understanding of whether a property aligns with their financial goals. The Real Cost of Hidden Property Defects in Today's Real Estate Market Emalaba founded InvestFusion after a personal loss on a duplex purchase in North Carolina. The property appeared financially sound, and the projected cash flow worked on paper. However, after committing nonrefundable due diligence fees, earnest money, appraisal costs and inspection expenses, significant undisclosed foundation issues surfaced. “That's when I realized that the biggest risk in real estate is not the market,” said Emalaba. “It's buyers going into contract blindly without realizing what is hidden beyond the surface.” Why Atlanta Ranks Among the Top Cities for Canceled Home Purchase Agreements According to a recent report from Redfin, more than 40,000 U.S. home purchase agreements were canceled in December — the highest level since 2017. That accounts for 16.3% of contracts nationwide. Atlanta's share of that activity is particularly notable. “Atlanta represents 22.5% of that ballpark number,” said Emalaba. “If we trickle down to Atlanta, that's more than $900 million in the metro area alone lost annually by buyers going under contract blindly.” These cancellations are not primarily driven by “cold feet” or fluctuating interest rates. Instead, many buyers uncover substantial issues during inspection that fundamentally alter the financial viability of the deal. In a market where buyers have more options and more leverage than in recent years, walking away has become more common. Top Real Estate Inspection Red Flags That Cause Deals to Fall Apart One of the key reasons contracts collapse in Atlanta's real estate market is the discovery of major property defects during the inspection period. Here are some red flags to look for: Structural and foundation problems Roofing HVAC Plumbing and electrical failures Permitting and code violations Flooding and drainage issues Title or boundary disputes Hazardous materials such as mold, asbestos or lead-based paint. “These are major things you don't see in drive-bys or by MLS photos,” said Emalaba. “You only discover this after going on inspection.” Many of these issues can cost tens of thousands of dollars to repair. When buyers realize the true scope of deferred maintenance or legal complications, the numbers often no longer make financial sense. As a result, they exit during due diligence — forfeiting time and, in some cases, money. Appraisal Gaps, Overstated Square Footage & Data Accuracy Risks While appraisal gaps dominated headlines during the pandemic-era bidding wars, today's risk profile has shifted. The issue is less about buyers offering above appraised value and more about inaccurate or incomplete data. Overstated square footage, outdated valuations and discrepancies between listing information and appraisal reports can cause lenders to reconsider financing. When the appraised value does not align with the contract price — or when square footage is misrepresented — deals often stall or collapse. Buyers must now evaluate whether a property's valuation truly supports long-term equity growth. Rising Home Insurance Costs Are Reshaping Atlanta Buying Decisions Insurance premiums have risen significantly since 2021, adding another layer of complexity to real estate transactions. Unexpected flood zone designations, prior insurance claims or property condition issues can dramatically increase monthly expenses. Emalaba said, “Nearly half of buyers now see that insurance costs heavily influence their purchase decisions.” When insurance is combined with property taxes, maintenance and financing, the total holding cost can quickly erode projected returns. Buyers are no longer asking only whether they can afford the mortgage payment. They are evaluating whether they can afford to hold the property long term. How InvestFusion Uses AI to Analyze Real Estate Risk Before You Sign a Contract Traditional due diligence is fragmented, requiring buyers to gather inspection reports, appraisals, title documents and insurance information from multiple sources — typically after funds have already been committed. InvestFusion consolidates that analysis into a single AI-powered platform. Emalaba said, “At a bare minimum, buyers are losing at least $7,000 or $8,000 when they go into those deals.” The platform analyzes more than 400 data points and generates a deal score in under a minute. It flags structural risks, zoning issues, flood exposure, valuation discrepancies and other material concerns before buyers put down nonrefundable funds. Before signing a contract, buyers should evaluate three primary factors: property condition risk, true valuation compared to the listing price and long-term holding costs. Keeping these considerations in mind helps ensure a property is not overpriced and that buyers fully understand insurance, tax and maintenance expenses.

Bao smiled.Zh: 安点点头，尽量不让自己喷嚏连连。En: An nodded, trying hard not to sneeze repeatedly.Zh: 然而，春风一吹，树上樱花的小花瓣飞舞，像是下了一场花瓣雨。En: However, as the spring breeze blew, tiny petals from the yinghua trees danced in the air, like a shower of flower petals.Zh: 安的眼睛越来越红，她感觉到鼻子忍不住得要打喷嚏。En: An's eyes grew increasingly red, and she felt her nose couldn't hold back a sneeze.Zh: “你怎么了，安？”宝略带好奇地问。En: "What's wrong, An?" Bao asked with a hint of curiosity.Zh: 安不好意思，她想努力忍耐，不想破坏这样美好的氛围。En: An was embarrassed; she wanted to endure it and not spoil such a beautiful atmosphere.Zh: 但就在她打算回答时，一个巨大的喷嚏打破了宁静的气氛。En: But just as she was about to answer, a massive sneeze broke the peaceful atmosphere.Zh: 她的鼻子也一阵发红，无法再掩饰她的窘迫。En: Her nose turned red, and she could no longer hide her embarrassment.Zh: “对不起，我不想这样。”安望着地面，声音里带着歉意。En: "Sorry, I didn't want this to happen." An looked at the ground, her voice filled with apology.Zh: 宝愣了一下，然后哈哈大笑：“你知道吗？你真的不必忍耐。我们可以去咖啡厅，那里没有花。”En: Bao paused for a moment, then laughed heartily, "You know? You really don't have to endure it. We can go to a café where there are no flowers."Zh: 安抬起头，看到宝的脸上没有一丝责备，只有温暖的微笑。En: An looked up to see that Bao's face had not a trace of blame, only a warm smile.Zh: 她点点头，心里顿时松了一口气。En: She nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over her.Zh: 他们起身，离开樱花树的遮盖，朝着不远处的咖啡馆走去。En: They got up, left the cover of the yinghua trees, and headed towards the café not far away.Zh: 对于安来说，这个约会虽然有些意外，但她学会了要诚实面对白己的局限。En: For An, this date was somewhat unexpected, but she learned to be honest about her limitations.Zh: 而宝则更欣赏安的努力与坚韧。En: And Bao appreciated An's effort and resilience even more.Zh: 在咖啡馆里，他们继续着愉快的谈话，享受着彼此的陪伴，没有了花粉的困扰，约会自始至终都温暖如春日的晴天。En: In the café, they continued their pleasant conversation, enjoying each other's company, free from the bother of pollen.

What followed wasn't a clear plan, but small steps of obedience, including taking a job in a coffee shop, that God used to open the door to the work he's in today.They talk about learning to trust God when the direction isn't clear, the role of community and vulnerability, and how faith is often formed through ordinary decisions made one step at a time.

Her first birth was filled with tension and pain from beginning to end — and it left her carrying trauma for 18 months. The second time? The morning labor began, a North Dakota blizzard kept her husband home until 10 a.m. — giving them an unexpected, sacred morning together as a family of three. The birth itself was intense. Wildly intense. But not painful. She kept surrendering to each surge. At one point she thought, “If this gets worse, I'm not sure what I'll do.” And yet — it never turned into pain. Only pressure. Only power. Only peace. Her daughter's middle name is Psalm — a reminder that even when the psalmists walked through hardship, they always returned to the faithfulness of God. This episode is about what happens when God doesn't waste the hard story… when He redeems it.
