We're kicking off our 4-part anniversary series: “Off Script: Five Years Later & Still Saying What No One Else Will.”This series names what's broken in church culture—and calls us to something better. From power dynamics to discipleship, we're going there.Today's episode tackles a common problem: treating volunteers like a workforce instead of ministry partners. This mindset leads to burnout, disconnection, and people feeling used—not valued.We'll explore how to move from a task-based model to a relational one that reflects Jesus' heart for ministry.In this episode:1. Why treating volunteers as workers leads to burnout2. Helpers vs. true ministry partners3. How to build a culture where volunteers feel valued4. The power of shared ownership in ministryIf your church is stuck in a “fill-the-slot” mindset, this episode is your invitation to rethink volunteer ministry.Join our free Facebook Community: www.facebook.com/groups/smallchurchministryRate, Review, & Follow Laurie on Apple Podcasts"I love Laurie and The Small Church Ministry Podcast!!"

In this On Location episode during OWASP AppSec Global 2025 in Barcelona, Maria Mora, Staff Application Security Engineer and active OWASP lifetime member, shares how her experience at the OWASP AppSec Global conference in Barcelona has reaffirmed the power of community in security. While many attendees chase back-to-back talks and technical training, Maria highlights something often overlooked—connection. Whether at the member lounge ping-pong table, during late-night beach meetups, or over keynote reflections, it's the relationships and shared purpose that make this event resonate.Maria emphasizes how her own journey into OWASP began with uncertainty but evolved into a meaningful path of participation. Through volunteering, serving on the events committee, and mentoring others, she has expanded not only her technical toolkit but also her ability to collaborate and communicate—skills she notes are essential in InfoSec but rarely prioritized. By stepping into the OWASP community, she's learned that you don't need decades of experience to contribute—just a willingness to start.Keynotes and sessions this year reinforced a similar message: security isn't just about hard skills. It's about bridging academia and industry, engaging first-time attendees, and creating welcoming spaces where no one feels like an outsider. Talks like Sarah Jané's encouraged attendees to find their own ways to give back, whether by submitting to the call for papers, helping with logistics, or simply sparking hallway conversations.Maria also points to how OWASP structures participation to make it accessible. Through demo rooms, project hubs, and informal lounge chats, attendees find ways to contribute to global initiatives like the OWASP Top 10 or volunteer-led trainings. Whether it's your first conference or your tenth, there's always room to jump in.For Maria, OWASP no longer feels like a secret club—it's a growing, open collective focused on helping people bring their best selves to security. That's the power of community: not just lifting up software, but lifting up each other.And for those thinking of taking the next step, Maria reminds us that the call for papers for OWASP DC is open through June 24th. As she puts it, “We all have something valuable to share—sometimes you just need the nudge to start.”GUEST: Maria Mora | Staff Application Security Engineer and OWASP events committee member | https://www.linkedin.com/in/riamaria/HOST: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | https://www.seanmartin.comSPONSORSManicode Security: https://itspm.ag/manicode-security-7q8iRESOURCESLearn more and catch more stories from OWASP AppSec Global 2025 Barcelona coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/owasp-global-appsec-barcelona-2025-application-security-event-coverage-in-catalunya-spainCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

In Ephesians 5, Paul tells us to look carefully about how we walk, “not as unwise, but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.” With the summer months approaching and the kids soon getting out of school, we want to encourage you to work with your kids to get off their screens, get out of the house, and make the most of the time rather than wasting their time on foolish pursuits. Here are some suggestions. For those who are old enough, have them secure a summer job. All of our kids should be required to perform daily and weekly chores around the house. Have them engage in outside yard work. Help them look for opportunities to volunteer. If they are too old to participate in your churches vacation Bible School, have them volunteer as helpers. Guide them to develop a short list of books to read over the summer months. Encourage them to develop a daily exercise plan. Teach them how to get into the habit of having daily devotions. Encourage your kids to have a wise summer.

Chris Lee and Alfred Ezman look at the field of four in the Knoxville Regional and give picks. Topics include: Defending national champion Tennessee has struggled with defense and pitching lately. But Andrew Fischer and Gavin Kilen remain tough outs, freshman Levi Clark has flashed big things, and the Vols have a bunch of talented bats like Dean Curley and others, too. The Volunteers' fate will depend on ace Liam Doyle, starters Marcus Phillips and AJ Russell, and a bullpen with experienced flamethrowers like Brandon Arvidson and Nate Snead. Tennessee has the talent to repeat as national champions, but can it find consistency? Second-seeded Wake Forest is led by future first-round MLB pick Marek Houston at short, and had four other double-digit home-run hitters in Jack Winery (14), Kade Lewis (11), Dalton Wentz (10) and Matt Scannell (10). The Deamon Deacons also have a talented ace in righty Blake Morningstar at the top of the rotation, and lefty Matthew Dallas (who transferred from Tennessee) also starting in the rotation. Can the Demon Deacons put together a run this tournament starting in Knoxville? Cincinnati makes a rare NCAA Tournament appearance, but the Bearcats stole 127 bases (led by Landon Vidourek's 37) and have the Big 12 Player of the year in Kerrington Cross(.399/.525/.657) manning third. Whether or not the Bearkats do damage may depend on how arms Nathan Taylor and Kellen O'Connor perform. Miami (Ohio) could be one of the more challenging four-seeds in the tournament. The Redhawks have a pair of quality starters in Cooper Katskee (2.66 ERA) and Carson Byers (2.65), with Katskee being great at keeping the ball in the yard. The lineup got on base throughout the order, and the big bat is Evan Applejack (19 HR).

On June 17, 1867, a battalion of the 10th U.S. Infantry began building a fort to protect westward travelers. The Homestead Act, combined with the end of the Civil War, had led to increased westward migration. Soldiers used oak logs to construct buildings, all arranged within a fortification made of sod. An area of ten square miles with the fort at its center was designated as the Fort Ransom Military Reservation. The fort was named after Major General Thomas E.G. Ransom of the U.S. Volunteers.

What happens when photography becomes a tool for social change rather than just documentation? In this episode, Michael Dooney speaks with acclaimed British photographer and artist Mark Neville about his journey from art school to the front-lines of conflict, and how he uses collaborative photography projects to empower communities, challenge social norms, and effect real-world impact. Neville shares stories from his time as an official war artist in Afghanistan, discusses the making of influential projects like The Port Glasgow Book Project and Stop Tanks With Books, and reflects on his ongoing work in Ukraine. Listeners will gain insights into the ethics of documentary practice, the power of art as activism, and what it means to make photography for—and with—the people it represents.

His projects often involve close collaboration with communities, aiming to empower subjects and address issues such as inequality, mental health, and conflict. Notable works include The Port Glasgow Book Project, Battle Against Stigma, Fancy Pictures, and Stop Tanks With Books. Neville has exhibited internationally, worked as an official war artist in Afghanistan, and was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize by The New York Times in 2012.

Jerusalem had been a city in reproach, but now was well on its way to being a shining city on a hill once again. This was the work God had put into Nehemiah's heart. The walls had been rebuilt providing them security and the hearts of the people were being revived by the Word of God providing them stability. While these steps were vital and in many way miraculous, Nehemiah still needed to lead another important step in the restoration of Jerusalem. In order to do so, he needed willing hearted volunteers. Many gladly gave of themselves to meet the need. May the Lord help us to do the same so that His work can go forward for His glory.Download NotesThanks for joining us for this episode and please take a moment to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Send us a textWhat does motherhood really mean when you don't have children of your own? I'm diving into this question from my personal perspective as a married woman without kids who's still figuring out if biological parenthood is part of my journey.The biblical instruction to "be fruitful and multiply" often gets brought up in conversations about having children. But looking deeper, I've found powerful meaning by breaking it down: "be" (to exist), "fruitful" (exhibiting the fruits of the spirit like love, joy, peace), and "multiply" (to increase). This reframing has shown me that nurturing the next generation extends far beyond having biological children.Through my experience mentoring with Big Brothers Big Sisters, I've discovered the profound connection that forms when you consistently show up for a child who isn't biologically yours. Despite knowing my "little sister" for just over a year, I find myself deeply invested in her wellbeing – attending her events, responding when her mother needs help, and including her in my daily prayers. This relationship has taught me that motherhood isn't confined to biological connections – it's about the heart's capacity to nurture and champion a young person's growth.For those longing for children but still waiting, I encourage you to start mothering now. Volunteer, mentor, or invest in the children already in your life. Every child I've connected with has drawn something out of me I didn't know I needed or possessed. They've helped me heal and grow in unexpected ways. We all have something inside us that this world needs – don't let fear stop you from sharing it. Whether you're a biological mother, aunt, godmother, teacher, or mentor, your contribution to raising the next generation matters profoundly. You're seen, you're heard, and you're an essential part of the village.Follow us on Facebook at Standing in your Truth Podcast with Yanni and on Instagram at Talks with Yanni to join our community of truth-seekers and nurturers.Support the show Standing In Your Truth Podcast with Yanni Thomas https://www.facebook.com/share/1Kcug7eVXX/?mibextid=wwXIfr
