Happy Pride month, y'all! Please help me to welcome lifelong activist and Arizona Drag Show organizer, Christopher Jay Hall, to the pod. Earlier this week, Christopher and his father were featured in a CNN article & this episode is a timely follow-up. Listen in as Christopher shares about his upbringing in rural Arizona, and how he & his dad have repaired their relationship in recent years. Despite his dad's early-on rejection of his queerness, Christopher came out as a teen and fell heart-first into LGBTQ+ activism. He shares how working with countless nonprofits led to the emergence of his drag persona, Miss Nature. Miss Nature LLC travels regionally, working in collaboration with rural organizers to create inclusive spaces and provide information and resources to underserved communities. Arizona Drag Show performances are generally family-friendly events, which in recent years has led to some virulent pushback from the right, more specifically in the city I currently call home, Cottonwood, Arizona. Thankfully, Miss Nature and local organizers have refused to be bullied & this year the production is offering a larger-than-ever, sold-out performance. Christopher and I dig into some of the common misconceptions about drag (especially as it relates to children), and he shares why he remains steadfast when it comes to bringing LGBTQ+ support to rural areas similar to the one he grew up in. Miss Nature carries on, fierce and full of heart, even when she has to dance on culture-war eggshells to bring her and her glorious entourage on stage. I think my bestie said it best: "Drag Queens have always and will always exist & thank the gay gods for that!!!"Christopher Jay Hall was born in Phoenix, AZ. He has lived all over the U.S. as a child, but spent much of his time growing up in Arizona. He has been in Tucson since 2013. He is a graduate of Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor's in Public Administration. Christopher loves bringing people together from all walks of life to help support a common cause amongst groups that normally might not come together. He does this best as his persona, Miss Nature, whom he has been bringing to stages across the country for more than a decade. Miss Nature looks forward to bringing the art of drag to new communities that have yet to experience it. She produces the annual Arizona Pride Tour, which is set to expand into New Mexico in 2026. To learn more about her, visit ⁦MissNatureLLC.com.⁩Referenced in this episode:Read the CNN article Interview with David Gallegos-RoybalFree Held (Movie 2015)Support the showThe stories and opinions shared in this episode are based on personal experience and are not intended to malign any individual, group, or organization.Join The Deeper Pulse at Patreon for weekly bonus episodes + other exclusive bonus content.

Send us a textThe passionate defense of conservation through hunting takes center stage as we welcome Rob McCanna, CEO of Dallas Safari Club (DSC). Rob's journey from small-town Pennsylvania outdoorsman to conservation leader reveals how a childhood connection to nature evolved into a mission to protect wildlife worldwide.Dallas Safari Club might sound like a local hunting club, but don't let the name fool you. This powerhouse conservation organization operates globally with 27 chapters across America and international expansion on the horizon. Through their foundation, DSC awards millions in grants supporting wildlife research, habitat management, anti-poaching initiatives, and human-wildlife conflict mitigation worldwide.The conversation tackles misconceptions head-on, particularly around African hunting. Rob shares a stunning statistic: not a single species faces extinction due to trophy hunting in Africa. Instead, the economic value created through regulated hunting provides crucial funding for habitat preservation and gives local communities alternatives to poaching or converting wilderness to agriculture.Education emerges as a cornerstone of DSC's mission. Their partnership with the Outdoor Tomorrow Foundation brings conservation curriculum into middle and high schools nationwide, rekindling connections to nature that modern life often severs. As Rob notes, "When you take people out and expose them to hunting, shooting, fishing, you immediately see the impact it has on them."Looking ahead, Rob invites listeners to the upcoming DSC Expo and Gala in July at the Gaylord Texan Resort—where a special announcement will unveil the organization's next conservation initiative. With membership options starting at just $250 for three years (currently including a custom knife worth $300), supporting wildlife conservation has never been more accessible.Visit biggame.org to discover how hunters worldwide are uniting to ensure wild places and species thrive for generations to come. As Rob puts it, DSC brings together "like-minded people with one thing in mind, and that's how to help."Check us out on Facebook and instagram Hunts On Outfitting, and also our YouTube page Hunts On Outfitting Podcast. Tell your hunting buddies about the podcast if you like it, Thanks!

Have you ever noticed how easy it is for people—even churches—to divide? Whether it's over something as serious as theology or as silly as a favorite fried chicken, we tend to split off, form factions, and guard our preferences. But Jesus prayed for something better—for unity. In John 17, He asked the Father to make us one, so that the world would believe. In this episode, we're turning to Acts 21:15–26 to see what it takes to preserve unity in the body of Christ. When tensions rise and misunderstandings happen—as they always will—how do we stay rooted in grace and keep the peace? The Apostle Paul provides a powerful picture—not just of doctrine and conviction, but of humility, sacrifice, and deep commitment to the unity of the Church. Join us as we walk through this text and discover what it means to be on the same team, deal with disunity, and give of ourselves for the sake of gospel peace. Let's dive in.

Human rebellion fractures the world, as vividly illustrated at Babel, where God scattered people by confusing their languages. In the face of that division, the Holy Spirit emerges as a divine force of unity, dramatically showcased at Pentecost when disciples miraculously spoke in different tongues to share the gospel. The Holy Spirit transformed a fearful group into bold witnesses who unite people through the powerful message of Jesus Christ. From the neighbor across the street to the global stage, the Holy Spirit's uniting power calls us to bridge divisions and spread Christ's love across all boundaries. How can we, empowered by the same uniting Spirit, share the gospel today?Pastor Schroeder's Pentecost sermon preached at Faith on June 8, 2025. Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Your sales team just closed a $50K deal. Marketing takes credit because the prospect downloaded three whitepapers. Sales takes credit because they nurtured the relationship for six months. Meanwhile, you're wondering why this kind of success feels so random—and why similar prospects are slipping away. Companies with misaligned sales and marketing teams waste more leads and see annual revenue decline. But businesses that achieve true alignment? They close more deals and grow revenue faster year-over-year. The difference isn't talent, budget, or market conditions. It's whether your marketing and sales teams are pulling in the same direction or accidentally sabotaging each other. Clashing Departments Can Crash Your Bottom Line The consequences of misalignment between sales and marketing are significant. One common side effect is sales teams complaining about the quality of leads generated by marketing, often dismissing them as "bad leads."  Another issue is messaging. Marketing can be blind to the value propositions that are working for sales if they do not understand the sellers' pitches and approach to closing deals. Their messaging is stale and ineffectual, completely disconnected from where sellers are finding success. When marketing and sales have different metrics or goals, it leads to a breakdown in communication and a lack of shared understanding. That misalignment hampers productivity, damaging morale and impacting your bottom line. Start With the Customer Journey The most important aspect that sales and marketing need to align on is the customer journey. This involves mapping out every touchpoint—from initial awareness to final purchase to customer retention.  Map the customer journey together—then act on it. This shared blueprint reveals exactly when prospects are ready for direct outreach versus when they need more nurturing. The payoff is immediate: Marketing delivers leads at peak readiness, while sales focuses their time on prospects most likely to convert. When both teams operate from the same customer journey map, handoffs become seamless and conversion rates climb. Tackle Sales Objections Together Every sales professional understands that the path to a closed deal is rarely a straight line. It's often a zig-zag through questions, doubts, and hesitations from prospects. Marketing's role is to help develop messaging and collateral assets that help the sales team deal with these objections. This includes essential resources like case studies, white papers, product demonstrations, and ROI calculators. With the support of marketing materials, sellers have the resources to back up their pitch, highlight benefits, and keep buyers engaged. Most teams fail to communicate. Marketing creates polished but generic materials that sales doesn't know exist. Sales knows which objections are the hardest to overcome but doesn't have specific collateral to counter them. The winning approach: Sales documents the top 5 objections that derail deals, complete with context about when and why they surface. Marketing then builds laser-focused tools to address these concerns. Think comparison sheets for "your competitor is cheaper," implementation timelines for "this seems too complex," or peer testimonials for "we're not sure this works in our industry." Close the loop: Sales reports back on which materials move deals forward and which fall flat. Marketing iterates based on real-world results. This feedback cycle shifts objection-handling from guesswork into a refined system that consistently converts hesitation into confidence. Get Sales and Marketing Aligned Now How can businesses foster a stronger cohesion between sales and marketing? Here are six key strategies: Establish Shared Goals and Metrics Sales and marketing should work together to define common objectives and key performance indicators (KPIs).  Action item: Schedule a joint planning session within the next 2 weeks to agree on 3-5 ...

In this enlightening dialogue, Kendall Vanderslice elucidates the profound connection between baking and spirituality as articulated in her book, "Bake & Pray."

Vanderslice articulates the spiritual dimensions of baking, drawing parallels between the preparation of bread and the sacred elements of the Eucharist. The conversation sheds light on the transformative power of shared meals and how the rituals surrounding bread can cultivate unity within the church, echoing the teachings of St. Paul in his epistle to the Corinthians.Throughout the discourse, Vanderslice emphasizes the theological implications of communion, urging listeners to reflect on how the church can embrace a more inclusive and meaningful practice of the sacrament....

 Uniting in a powerful conversation that bridges the gap between faith and mental health; host Eve McNair welcomes Deora Clairé, whose striking TikTok testimony caught Eve's attention, to share her journey with bipolar disorder.Deora candidly reveals how her mental health crisis emerged suddenly following a painful breakup in 2019. With remarkable clarity, she describes her first manic episode with psychosis—walking around vacant houses talking to them—which led to hospitalization and diagnosis at age 23. The raw details of her experiences, including believing she was invisible during a second episode, create a vivid picture of what psychosis actually looks like, demystifying a commonly misunderstood condition.What makes this conversation particularly powerful is the seamless integration of faith and professional treatment. Deora  shares how she initially stopped her medication due to denial but eventually embraced both her faith and medical support. She references Scripture throughout, including Proverbs 11:14 about the "abundance of wise counselors," providing biblical permission for believers to seek specialized help without shame. As she puts it, "God is the ultimate healer, but He also provides people to help you through those issues too."Get in touch with the guest and I Eve's Linktree info - https://linktr.ee/IAMMSEVE?utm_source=linktree_profile_share

Send us a textSPONSOR:   Briefcase MarketingCould Orthodox and Catholic Christians finally reunite after centuries of separation? As both traditions celebrated Easter on the same day this year, we explore the fascinating possibility of reconciliation between these ancient branches of Christianity.The calendrical quirk that aligned Orthodox and Catholic Easter dates this year isn't just a mathematical curiosity – it's a powerful symbol of potential unity. While Orthodox Christians typically use the Julian calendar (placing their Easter about 13 days different from the Gregorian calendar used by Catholics), this year's synchronization recalls the shared foundation established at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD.  More on this at this link.Pope Leo, whose papal crest bears the motto "In Christ we become one," is continuing dialogue started by Pope Francis regarding a permanent alignment of Easter celebrations. With the 1700th anniversary of Nicaea approaching and Pope Leo planning his first papal trip to Turkey for the commemoration, the momentum for meaningful unity seems stronger than ever. This historic moment coincides with what we're calling a "springtime in Christianity" – a period of renewal marked by increasing interest in faith traditions among younger generations seeking meaning beyond what secular culture offers.SPONSOR:   Briefcase MarketingAt Briefcase Marketing, we create marketing that inspires action and delivers results.  We will:Clarify your message to attract the right audience.Streamline your website to convert more visitors into customers, donors or volunteers.Create consistency to build trust and deepen relationships across every marketing platform (Emails, Ads, Social Media, Etc).Check out some of their  successful clients and their most recent client, Doyle Med.WomankindTheology of the Body CLESt. John Cantius ParishThe moving story of the Four Chaplains – Catholic, Jewish, Reformed, and Methodist ministers who gave away their life jackets and died together praying for others as their ship sank during WWII – provides a powerful model for interfaith cooperation.

The book explores the integration of psychology and organizational development to foster personal and professional growth. They emphasized that self-awareness is foundational to effective leadership and a healthy organizational culture. Dr. Behnam highlighted the importance of recognizing how individual actions impact an organization and advocated cultivating a culture of awareness, responsibility, and continuous learning. He also underscored the role of cultural sensitivity in addressing turnover and resistance, stressing that organizations must intentionally invest in creating empowering and inclusive environments. Dr. Foojan focused on how unresolved personal patterns—often rooted in early life experiences—can influence workplace dynamics.

Gratitude is placing ourselves into the hands of God, trusting in His providence and allowing Him to guide us where He wills (without asking us for permission or our understanding His purpose). It is like having a bucket of cold water dumped over our heads. We are suddenly awakened and our whole being is set on edge.  We realize in the words of Saint Isaac the Syrian that gratitude and faith are often not what we imagine or want them to be. To show gratitude to He who is crucified Love means that we embrace that Love in our lives, are driven by the same desires as Christ, and willing to bear affliction patiently and with joy.  In the Scriptures, we hear the surprising words: “He was made perfect by what he suffered“. We see the perfection of love and the mercy of the kingdom most fully when Christ allows himself to be broken and poured out on the cross. Life allows himself to be swallowed up by death.  From the perspective of human understanding, it seems to be absurdity and failure. Despite our acknowledgment and the celebration of the resurrection of Christ - trampling death by death, so that those in the tombs might be granted life, we do not want this reality to shape our experience of life in the world. Saint Isaac is not presenting us with anything different from the gospel and yet our almost infinite capacity for rationalization makes us avoid affliction at every cost and become resentful when we find it ever present in our lives.  The kingdom of heaven is within. Salvation is now. The life that we are called to live and the love that we are to embody has been freely given to us. Not to embrace this life and love, not to allow it to shape the very essence of our lives is the height of ingratitude. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:11 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 120 01:10:34 Catherine Opie: I think that we have been indoctrinated into only being grateful when things go the way we want, I read a story about St Dominic that he took great pains to build a church on a hill. When it was finally complete the local king demanded it be torn down stone by stone until nothing was left. St Dominic upon finding this out declared joyously "Praise the Lord!". This really struck me deeply because it is so the antithesis of the attitude I was brought up in where we bemoan and curse God for misfortune and only are grateful when we get what we want. Or we see relationship with God only as a place to demand what we want. 01:10:56 Kathleen: Tall order. Very difficult. 01:11:35 Maureen Cunningham: Wow it hard but many rewards .

Passover, which we recently celebrated, bans bread. Leviticus bans pigs. Ashkenazim banned rice, but Mizrachim and the rabbis of the Talmud did not. What do these bans and dietary practices actually say about us? For 2,000 years the Jewish people have been doing something that nowadays is indispensable... reading food labels. It's required nowadays to list whether a food contains lactose or gluten. Was this made in a factory where they also process peanuts? Is it organic and sustainable?  But the ancient Israelites and modern-day Jews have been understanding the importance of diet for a long, long time. This week on Madlik we delve into the fascinating world of Jewish dietary laws and their profound impact on Jewish identity. In this episode, we explore how ancient legal discussions about food continue to shape modern Jewish society, challenging our assumptions about the purpose and relevance of these laws today. The Torah introduces dietary restrictions in Leviticus, using language that goes beyond simple dietary prohibitions: • The text uses terms like "tameh" (impure) and "sheketz" (detestable), not unkosher, to describe forbidden foods. • These laws are presented as a means of separating the Israelites from other nations and elevating their lifestyle. The recent Passover holiday brought to light a common question among Ashkenazi Jews: Why can't we eat rice, corn, or hummus during this time? This seemingly simple inquiry opens up a complex discussion about the nature of Jewish dietary laws, their origins, and their role in shaping Jewish identity throughout history. The exploration of kosher laws and the kitniyot debate reveals that Jewish dietary practices are about much more than just food. They serve as a powerful tool for shaping identity, fostering community, and navigating the complexities of tradition in a modern world. These discussions challenge us to reconsider our assumptions about the purpose and relevance of dietary laws in Jewish life. They invite us to reflect on how our food choices can connect us to our heritage, distinguish us from others, and potentially unite us as a people. As we continue to grapple with these ancient laws in our modern context, we're reminded that the way we eat is intimately connected to who we are and who we aspire to be as a community.
