Have you ever wondered if "tough coaching" is actually helping athletes grow or quietly damaging their confidence? Every coach wants athletes who perform under pressure, stay accountable, and push through challenges. Every parent wants their child to be coached hard while still feeling respected and supported. In this episode, Jason and Gina tackle one of the most debated topics in cheerleading: where is the line between effective coaching and coaching that goes too far? Along the way, they explore how coaching language impacts performance, why small flyers may be one of the best tools for developing elite technique, and how the culture created by coaches influences an entire team. Learn why certain coaching phrases can unintentionally create fear, doubt, and performance anxiety. Discover how training with smaller flyers can accelerate technique development for bases and stunt groups. Understand the difference between demanding excellence and creating a toxic environment that hurts athlete growth. Listen now to learn practical coaching strategies that build confident athletes, stronger teams, and better long-term results without sacrificing accountability or performance.

Foolish Confounds the Wise What if the very thing you trust most is the thing keeping you from seeing God clearly? For centuries, people have struggled with Jesus for the same reason. The Jews wanted power. The Greeks wanted wisdom. The Romans wanted strength. Yet God sent a crucified Savior. What looked foolish to the world became the very wisdom and power of God. In this message, we’ll explore Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians 1 and uncover why the gospel still challenges our assumptions today. Why do some people embrace the cross while others reject it? Why do we so often trust our own logic, intelligence, expectations, and abilities instead of God’s ways? And what wisdom have we embraced that might be making Jesus harder to recognize? The gospel is not advice about how to become a better version of yourself. It is the announcement of what God has already done through Christ. Because every culture has a kind of wisdom that makes Jesus harder to recognize, but God’s wisdom is still greater than our own. 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? What do you think Paul means when he says, “God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise”? Which of the five points from this week’s message stood out to you the most, and why? The gospel doesn’t fit our logic. The gospel cannot be discovered through intelligence alone. The gospel offends our expectations. God uses the wrong people. God’s method doesn’t impress the world. Pastor David said, “The gospel is not advice. It is news.” What is the difference between those two ideas? HEART – How did it make you feel? The message challenged us with this question: “What wisdom have we embraced that might be keeping us from seeing Jesus clearly?” How would you answer that personally? Examples of things that some people trust: Your own logic? Your own experience? Your own abilities? Other people’s opinions? Have you ever found yourself disappointed with God because He didn’t work the way you expected Him to work? Which statement hits closest to home right now? “The cross starts where self-help ends.” “Information can inform the mind, but only revelation transforms the heart.” “God often chooses people human wisdom wouldn’t even interview.” “The power was never in the packaging. The power was always in the message.” HANDS – What are you going to do with it? Is there a situation you’re currently trying to solve through effort, strategy, or control that may require surrender and prayer instead? Who is one person in your life that needs to hear the hope of the gospel? What is one practical step you can take to engage them this week?

In Acts 17:1–15, Paul and Silas are described as men who are turning the world upside down. But how? It was the power of the Scripture which Paul proclaimed that had the power to do such a thing. Your world can be turned upside down by the story of Scripture, through the study of Scripture, and in the sharing of Scripture. Pastor David Horner preaches from Acts 17:1–15.

The blockbuster TV series, Stranger Things, was originally to be titled "Montauk." Montauk was known to be used for MK Ultra experiments, portal openings, time travel, and other “stranger things.” With the erection and dedication of the Arch of Bal in New York, which coincided with the terrorist bombings, could a Vale of Shadows have opened the Upside Down world? On this episode of Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks with conspiracy researcher and author Tim Swartz about THE MONTAUK SHOW. The original broadcast was on September 20, 2016.

In this new episode, Patrick Hogarty fills in for Joe and exposes a nation spinning out of control, delivering a raw, unfiltered look at a system that feels completely turned upside down. From delayed ballot counting and the eroding integrity of our elections to the weaponization of radical movements targeting local, faith-based small businesses right here in Denver, Patrick connects the dots on how global and partisan interests are systematically being prioritized over everyday citizens. With hard-hitting breakdowns on the deliberate handling of the southern border and a shocking look at policies stripping away parental rights across the country, this episode is a rallying cry for common sense, accountability, and the defense of American communities before they are fractured beyond repair.Joining the conversation is Rich Guggenheim, a native Coloradan, peer-reviewed scientist, and Republican candidate for Colorado State Senate District 25. Known to his massive online following as a fearless conservative voice, Rich brings a uniquely pragmatic perspective to the fight against institutional overreach. Having successfully sued the state legislature in federal court over free speech censorship and stepped forward as a federal whistleblower, Rich details exactly how he plans to take his personal battle against the political establishment straight to the State Capitol to restore balance to a state currently dominated by one-party control.Together, Patrick and Rich dive deep into the pressing issues facing Colorado families, from skyrocketing property taxes and the defense of the state's Taxpayer's Bill of Rights (TABOR) to pulling ideological experiments out of public school classrooms. They explore how to bridge political divides, protect parental rights, and advocate for balanced, scientifically sound energy policies that keep utility bills low and the grid reliable. This is not just a standard political breakdown—it is an essential, front-line conversation for anyone ready to stand up, confront the machine, and demand a return to law, order, and sanity.

Die Upside-Down-Folgen gehören zu den seltensten Formaten im Podcast – und genau deshalb wird es höchste Zeit für ein Comeback. Diesmal übernimmt Kay, vielen bekannt durch StanceFlair und bereits Gast in Folge 320, das Steuer. Statt selbst Fragen zu stellen, sitze ich auf der anderen Seite des Mikrofons und beantworte Themen, über die ich sonst eher selten spreche.Natürlich geht es um Autos. Aber es geht auch um alles, was dahinter steckt. Um die Frage, wie wichtig es mir wirklich ist, bei Projekten bei der Orga oder auf Treffen meinen Kopf durchzusetzen – und wie schwer es manchmal fällt zu akzeptieren, dass nicht jeder dieselbe Leidenschaft für etwas entwickeln kann. Und habe ich wirklch einen Hang zum Okkulten und Paranormalen?!Wir sprechen darüber, wie viele Nerven, wie viel Zeit und auch wie viele Freundschaften Van de Schnee bereits gekostet hat. Über die Angst vor dem Scheitern, vor dem Verlust und vor Dingen, über die man normalerweise nicht spricht. Darüber, zu welcher Crew ich wahrscheinlich gehört hätte oder für wen ich gearbeitet hätte, wenn es Van de Schnee nie gegeben hätte.Außerdem geht es um Relevanz, Aufmerksamkeit und Social Media. Wie wichtig ist es mir wirklich, relevant zu bleiben? Steht das manchmal sogar über dem Hobby selbst? Warum ziehen viele Menschen ihren Antrieb aus Aufmerksamkeit – und wie gefährlich kann das werden?Kay fragt nach meinem Verhältnis zu Autos, wo ich mich selbst sehe und wie sehr ich mich überhaupt noch über Fahrzeuge definiere. Warum ich nicht gerne allein bin, gleichzeitig aber öfter allein unterwegs bin, als viele denken. Welche Kraft man daraus ziehen kann – und ob ich heute überhaupt noch ein Event besuchen könnte, ohne automatisch in den „Van-de-Schnee-Modus“ zu schalten und einfach nur Gast zu sein.Eine Folge über Stress und Freude, Familie und Freundschaften, Leidenschaft und Verantwortung. Über die Momente, in denen ich emotional werde. Und über die Frage, die wahrscheinlich viele von euch schon einmal hatten:Ist Van de Schnee eine Kunstfigur – oder bin das wirklich ich?

A blizzard has swallowed Hawkins whole, and the gang is more fractured and in more danger than ever before. In "Enter the Storm" (Chapter Seven), Darrell and Addi break down one of the season's most intense and emotionally charged episodes yet, as Lucas and Max are on the move, braving the storm to reach higher ground and get a Code Red out to the rest of the team — all while the threat from the Upside Down closes in. Meanwhile, on the other side of Hawkins, Will, Mike, and Nikki find themselves completely snowed in at school, and the tension between Mike and Will over Nikki's place in the group is still simmering just beneath the surface. But the cold outside is the least of anyone's worries because El senses something lurking inside the school. Darrell and Addi unpack the creeping dread of what it means when Eleven's instincts kick in and what she picks up on while trapped in the school with Mike, Will, and Nikki. The episode masterfully uses the blizzard as both a physical barrier and a storytelling device, trapping characters in tight spaces with rising fears and unresolved conflict. Tune in as your hosts break down the episode's standout moments, debate what El's warning could mean for the group, and tease what this perfectly crafted slow-burn setup might be building toward in the episodes to come.

Weakness is Strength What happens when the thing you trust most about yourself finally fails? In this message, we explore the life of Peter and the surprising journey from self-confidence to Spirit-dependence. Peter loved Jesus. He wanted to obey Jesus. He believed he would never abandon Jesus. Yet time after time, Peter found himself relying on his own courage, understanding, devotion, and strength. It wasn’t until his confidence in himself finally collapsed that he discovered the power of God’s grace. Through Peter’s story, we’ll wrestle with some honest questions: Where do we trust ourselves more than God? Where do we rely on our own effort instead of His presence? And what happens when life reveals we’re weaker than we thought? Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, we’ll discover that God’s power is not perfected through our strength, but through our surrender. Because before Pentecost, Peter was drawing strength from Peter. After Pentecost, Peter was drawing strength from the Spirit. And that changes everything. God is not looking for impressive people. He is looking for dependent people. Philippians 2:5-8 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? What stood out to you most from Peter’s journey?  Was there a specific moment in Peter’s life where you saw yourself? Before Pentecost, Peter was drawing strength from Peter. After Pentecost, Peter was drawing strength from the Spirit.  What do you think is the difference between self-confidence and Spirit-dependence? Which of Peter’s “strength strategies” do you relate to most? Courage Understanding Performance Helping others Devotion Passion Control Why? HEART – How did it make you feel? Have you ever experienced a season where God exposed a weakness you didn’t know was there? What did that experience teach you? One of the sermon questions was:  “Where do I trust me more than God?” How would you answer that honestly today? Which statement impacted you most? “Peter was not lying about his love. He was wrong about his strength.” “The rooster did not expose Peter to Jesus. It exposed Peter to Peter.” “Jesus did not restore Peter’s ego. He restored Peter’s calling.” “God is not looking for impressive people. He is looking for dependent people.” Why? HANDS – What are you going to do with it? What is one area of your life where God may be inviting you to stop relying on your own strength and start relying on His? Please be specific. Peter’s turning point came when he stopped drawing strength from himself. What practical step could you take this week to depend more on God? Examples: Begin your day in prayer. Ask for help. Admit a struggle. Invite accountability. Spend time in Scripture before making a decision.

A blizzard is rolling into Hawkins, and the cold outside is the least of everyone's problems. Chapter Six of Stranger Things: Tales From '85 opens with a chilling flashback to November 1984, right on the heels of the original series' second season, before snapping back to a winter that is quickly getting out of hand. The gang is scattered and the stakes are multiplying fast: Dustin heads off on a solo side quest, Max and Lucas find themselves pulled toward a desperate cry for help, and a bold move by one of the crew lands Will, Mike, and Nikki in detention. Outside the school walls, scientists are quietly experimenting on the remnants of the Upside Down vines in a secret lab, injecting them with something that almost certainly should not exist. In this episode, Darrell and Addi dig into everything Chapter Six is juggling. They break down the November '84 flashback and what it reveals about where these characters have been, explore how the split storylines keep the episode moving even as the blizzard locks Hawkins down, and get into the detention subplot and the bold choice that triggered it. We also unpack the secret lab thread, what the vine experiments mean for the mythology of Tales From '85, and how this episode feels like the season shifting into a higher gear. Plus, as always, we share your thoughts! Listener feedback was great for this episode and we had a blast interacting with you all!

When Jesus came into this world, he established an eternal community called "the kingdom of God." Anyone in heaven or on earth who has submitted to King Jesus is a part of that kingdom, and the values & priorities of his kingdom are drastically different from those found in this world. #MoRealJesus

Love Your Enemies What does it really mean to love your enemies? And how do you respond when people hurt you, oppose you, or work against you? In this message from our Upside Down Way of God series, we explore one of the most challenging teachings of Jesus from Matthew 5:43-48 and Luke 6:27-36. While culture teaches outrage, retaliation, and tribalism, Jesus teaches a different way: bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you. Together, we unpack how hatred and bitterness shape the human soul, how modern culture profits from outrage, and why Jesus calls His followers to refuse becoming what wounded them. Most importantly, we discover that loving enemies is not weakness—it is one of the clearest ways we resemble our Father in heaven. Because while we were still enemies, God moved toward us through Christ. The world understands revenge. What shocks people is mercy. Matthew 5:43-48 Luke 6:27-36 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? What stood out to you most from this week's message?  Looking at Matthew 5:43-48, what was wrong with the religious teaching Jesus was correcting? Why do you think people naturally drift toward instead of Kingdom love? tribal love conditional love transactional love Which one of these four commands that Jesus gave feels the hardest to you personally, and why? love your enemies bless those who curse you do good to those who hate you pray for those who mistreat you HEART – How did it make you feel? What did it look like when bitterness or resentment began shaping: your thoughts your speech your attitude your peace Which line impacted you the most, and why? “The Kingdom refuses to become what wounded it.” “Hatred punishes the person carrying it.” “The cross is proof that God loves His enemies.” “You cannot love enemies while protecting ego.” Is there anyone you have quietly stopped seeing as an image-bearer and started viewing only as “the enemy”? HANDS – What are you going to do with it? What is one practical way you can actively show Kingdom love this week? praying for someone refusing gossip blessing instead of retaliating doing good quietly showing compassion releasing bitterness Take a moment and ask yourself: Is there someone I need to forgive?  Is there bitterness I've been rehearsing? Is hatred quietly discipling my heart? Now pray together for: healing from offense freedom from bitterness compassion for difficult people the ability to love like Jesus Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what’s next

A secret photo, a tabloid newspaper, and an unknown monster lurking beneath Hawkins. This week's episode of Tales from '85 is packed with tension, teamwork, and an settling final reveal. In "The Weekly Watcher" (Chapter Five), Darrell and Addi break down one of the season's funnest episodes yet, where the Hawkins Investigators Club finds themselves in a race against the press after a polaroid photo of one of their Upside Down encounters lands in the hands of a tabloid editor. With Keith having already handed off Dustin's snapshot to The Weekly Watcher, the gang — with a crucial assist from Nancy — must launch a full-on newspaper office infiltration to keep Hawkins' paranormal secrets under wraps. Darrell and Addi dive deep into the episode's standout moments, including Eleven's storm-conjuring save that pulls Lucas out of an impossible corner, and the satisfying (but short-lived) sense of relief when Dustin destroys the photo for good. But it wouldn't be Stranger Things without a twist that changes everything. Darrell and Addi also dig into the emotional undercurrents running through the episode, namely the ongoing tension around Nikki's place in the group and what it means for the gang's dynamic going forward. And just when you think the crisis has been handled? The episode's closing moment pulls the rug out entirely, revealing that the so-called "snake monster" featured in The Weekly Watcher is not tabloid fiction at all. It's a very real creature from the Upside Down, and it has Jeff. Tune in as your hosts unpack all of it, including what this  cliffhanger could mean for the rest of the season.

Power Through Patience What if patience is not the absence of power, but the pathway to it? In this Pentecost Sunday message, Power Through Patience, Dallas Amsden explores the upside-down way of the Kingdom, where true power does not come through control, speed, or self-reliance. It comes through surrender, waiting, and the presence of the Holy Spirit. Looking at Philippians 2, Acts 1–2, and John 14, we'll see how Jesus models surrendered power through Kenosis, how the disciples waited in unity and prayer before Pentecost, and how the Holy Spirit empowers believers to live as witnesses of Jesus in the world. The world says, “Move faster. Take control. Force the outcome.” The Kingdom says, “Wait on the Lord. Empty your hands. Receive the Spirit.” Because in the Kingdom of God, the Spirit fills what surrender empties. Acts 2 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? What stood out to you most from this week's message on Pentecost and patience? Why do you think waiting is often uncomfortable for people? Looking at Acts 1:4-8, why do you think Jesus told the disciples to wait instead of immediately sending them out? What is Kenosis from Philippians 2:5-8, and how did Jesus model surrendered power? HEART – How did it make you feel? Which of these hit closest to home for you: confusing control with peace confusing speed with obedience confusing self-reliance with strength Why? Where in your life do you currently feel like you're in a “waiting room”? relationships healing finances purpose family clarity spiritual growth What are you most tempted to control when life feels uncertain? What does that reveal about your trust in God? HANDS – What are you going to do with it? What is one area of your life where you need to stop rushing and start trusting God more deeply? What would it practically look like for you to: wait with God instead of rushing ahead of Him? surrender control instead of forcing outcomes? seek God's presence instead of merely quick solutions?

What if the cybersecurity industry has spent decades fighting the wrong battle? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Benny Czarny, founder and CEO of OPSWAT, to discuss why he believes the traditional "detect and respond" model is no longer enough in a world where AI is accelerating cyber threats faster than security teams can react. Benny joined me to discuss his new book, Cybersecurity Upside Down, which combines personal stories from building OPSWAT with a bold argument for rethinking how organizations approach cyber defense altogether. His central belief is simple but provocative: detection-based security has trapped the industry in a losing cycle in which attackers need to succeed only once, while defenders are forced into a constant state of reaction. During our conversation, Benny explained how his thinking evolved after realizing that even layering dozens of antivirus engines and sandboxing technologies still failed to stop malicious files reliably. That realization ultimately pushed him toward a prevention-first philosophy built around Deep Content Disarm and Reconstruction, or CDR. Rather than trying to determine whether a file is malicious, the approach assumes files may already be dangerous and regenerates clean, safe versions before they ever reach users or systems. We also explored how generative AI is changing the cybersecurity landscape in ways many organizations still underestimate. Benny shared why AI is dramatically reducing the time required to create malware, weaponize exploits, and scale attacks, effectively giving even inexperienced attackers capabilities once reserved for nation states or advanced cybercriminal groups. He also raised concerns that AI data lakes could become contaminated with malicious content, creating entirely new risks for organizations rushing to deploy large language models without securing the data feeding them. One of the most fascinating aspects of the discussion was the psychology and culture within cybersecurity teams. Benny argued that the industry often celebrates visible incident response activity while undervaluing quiet prevention. In a world dominated by alerts, dashboards, and SOC metrics, truly preventing attacks can almost appear invisible, despite potentially delivering far greater security outcomes. We also talked about the sectors Benny believes are most exposed today, including energy, manufacturing, and critical infrastructure operators that still rely heavily on reactive security models while facing growing operational and regulatory complexity. He explained why some industries are advancing faster than others and why compliance mandates could become a major catalyst for broader prevention-first adoption. Beyond cybersecurity itself, this episode also offered a fascinating look into Benny's entrepreneurial journey, what he learned building OPSWAT over two decades, how AI helped him research and structure his book, and why he is now even producing a cybersecurity-focused TV series called Into the Breach, designed to make complex security concepts easier for wider audiences to understand. This conversation challenges many of the assumptions the cybersecurity industry has normalized for years. Whether you work in security, IT leadership, compliance, or want to understand how AI is reshaping digital risk, this episode offers a very different perspective on what modern cyber resilience could look like in practice.

First Will Be Last What sits on the throne of your heart?And what happens when the pursuit of being first quietly becomes the center of your life? In this message, we confront one of the deepest struggles of modern culture: the obsession with visibility, influence, comparison, and self-promotion. We live in a world where attention has become identity, where followers can feel like significance, and where people are constantly pressured to perform instead of simply live. But Jesus introduces a completely different Kingdom—one where greatness looks like servanthood, humility, surrender, and faithfulness. Through the teachings of Jesus in Mark 9:30-37 and the Parable of the Workers in Matthew 20:1-16, we uncover how comparison creates entitlement, how pride turns life into competition, and why grace feels offensive when we believe we deserve more than others. We also explore the powerful theological idea of Kenosis from Philippians 2:5-8—the self-emptying of Jesus—not as weakness, but as ultimate surrender. Because the Kingdom of God does not reward the loudest voice, the biggest platform, or the most recognized name. Heaven's scoreboard is different. The world climbs ladders… but the Kingdom washes feet. This message is a challenge to stop building the kingdom of self and surrender the throne to the true King. Because in the end, the goal of Christianity is not self-promotion… it's self-sacrifice.Message Description Mark 9:30-37 Discussion topics HEAD – What did Jesus say to you through the Word? What stood out to you most from this week's message?  What does Jesus mean when He says, “the first will be last and the last first”? How does modern culture define greatness differently than the Kingdom of God? Looking at Matthew 20:1-16, why were the workers who came first upset even though they received exactly what was promised?  Do you think they had a legit reason to be upset? HEART – How did it make you feel? Which line hit you the hardest and why:            “Visibility is not the same as significance.”            “Comparison is the birthplace of resentment.”            “Pride turns life into competition. Humility turns life into calling.” When someone else succeeds, do you naturally celebrate with them… or compare yourself against them?  What does that reveal about your heart? HANDS – What are you going to do with it? Where are you tempted to build your identity around visibility instead of obedience? What is one practical way you can choose humility over self-promotion this week?serving quietlyencouraging someone elsecelebrating another person's success stepping away from comparison choosing faithfulness over attention Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what's next

For the last decade at least, the question of free speech has been the defining issue of American higher education. One school set out to tackle those problems head on, but appears to have lost its way in the process, struggling to define itself even before opening its doors.
