    The Road to Mount Zion: Walking Toward God's Peace The Gospel recounts Jesus' warning that the coming of the Son of Man will be sudden, . . . . . . just as the flood came unexpectedly in the days of Noah. Therefore, believers must remain spiritually awake and prepared at all times. The Homily connects this vigilance to the Advent call for peace and reconciliation. Reflecting on the United Nations monument inspired by Isaiah's prophecy . . . “They shall beat their swords into plowshares” . . . the Homily notes that true peace does not come from political power or military strength but from turning toward God, the God of Jacob. Despite global efforts, . . . . . . wars persist, reminding us that peace must begin within each person. During Advent, Christians are invited to “beat their swords into plowshares” by reconciling with those who have hurt them. The greatness of a Christian lies in seeking peace, healing relationships, and living each day as though the Lord is coming in every moment. Paul's call to “wake from sleep” emphasizes living daily life in holiness, attentiveness, and readiness. Advent begins not with the beginning of time but with the end in view . . . the ultimate fulfillment when God will be all in all and peace will reign. The Church becomes the place where this peace begins as believers set aside hostility and walk together toward God. Listen to this Meditation Media.

    Walking is something we all do every day, but did you know it has numerous health benefits? It's not just a simple way to get from point A to point B; walking can improve cardiovascular health, boost your mood, and even enhance your overall well-being. According to specialists, it can also help you lose weight under certain conditions. By incorporating regular, brisk walks into your routine, you can take advantage of these benefits and work towards your weight loss goals. First, you need to walk enough. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends at least 10,000 steps a day to stay fit and maintain a stable weight. But if your goal is to lose weight, you'll need to walk more and at a higher intensity. To really shed those pounds, aim to walk at least three times a week for an hour or more at a brisk pace (between 6 and 8 km/h) and maintain a heart rate between 135 and 160 beats per minute. So, what are those conditions? Is that enough to lose weight? Is one type of walking more effective than another? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    Two months ago, a now-fired Sucker Punch developer lost her job due to an ill-timed social media post, and she's been fairly quiet ever since, at least until now. In a new article, artist Drew Harrison talks about what befell her, but -- truth be told -- she seems to have missed the biggest part of her own story: How much she could have (and did) harm the hundreds of other people that worked for years on Ghost of Yotei, only to disrupt the entire marketing roll-out of the game on the precipice of its hyped release. Let's revisit the situation with new context and insights, and see if we can make sense of whether her dismissal was fair, unfair, or perhaps just the product of the environment many industry professionals gleefully cheered on when the shoe was on the other foot. Plus: Death Stranding 2 gets an ESRB rating for a PC release, PlayStation 3 emulation is actively being worked on outside of Sony's walls, Stellar Blade 2 is abandoning PlayStation as its publishing partner, RAM price spikes threaten the future of console pricing, and more.

    This week on Beekeeping Today Podcast, Becky welcomes guest co-host Bridget Mendel as they sit down with virologist Dr. Declan Schroeder from the University of Minnesota's College of Veterinary Medicine. Together, they explore the unseen world of honey bee viruses—how they evolve, how they spread, and why understanding them is essential for modern beekeeping. Declan brings a fresh perspective to virus ecology, sharing how his early research on marine viruses led him into honey bee health just as colony losses began escalating worldwide. He describes why viruses were overlooked for so long and how the arrival of Varroa shifted viral dynamics from background agents to major colony-level threats. Becky and Bridget dig into what this means for beekeepers: why Varroa management remains the cornerstone of reducing virus pressure, how viruses move within and between colonies, and what new research is revealing about potential spillover concerns between honey bees and native bees. Declan discusses findings from a multi-year Minnesota study showing that while bumblebees may encounter honey bee viruses, they are rarely infected—an important distinction in ongoing conservation conversations. The discussion wraps with a look ahead: evolving virus–vector interactions, improved surveillance efforts, and the growing role of researchers and veterinarians in supporting beekeeper decision-making. It's an engaging, approachable dive into a complex subject—one that every beekeeper will benefit from hearing.

    Hope for Right Now: A Walking with Purpose Podcast

    Hope for Right Now Podcast – Trust in the Impossible: An Advent Series, Zechariah While Walking with Purpose founder Lisa takes time to write our next women's Bible study, Laura is keeping the Hope for Right Now podcast going strong with a four-week series: Trust in the Impossible: An Advent Series. Advent is meant to be a time of interior reflection—the weeks we prepare our hearts and homes to receive the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. But with the secular world's demands and distractions, keeping our eyes on what matters can be challenging, and the season of quiet we dream about feels impossible. What if this Advent, we said no to the overwhelm of the secular world and yes to the overshadowing of the Spirit? Each week, Laura introduces a Biblical figure from the gospel of Luke, whose story reveals the secret to a simple, peace-filled Advent—one where we yield to God's will, respond in faith, and trust in the impossible.   Today's Biblical figure: Zechariah. Discover how Jesus is so close to us, and that even when we give up on our impossible prayers, we can be assured that God never does.  Open your Heart to our key Scripture. Luke 1:5–20 Open your Bible to other Scriptures referenced in this episode. Luke 1:35: And the angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God.” Matthew 17:5: He was still speaking, when behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” Exodus 40:34–35: Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. And Moses was not able to enter the tent of the meeting, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Exodus 25:20: The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings. Daniel 8:16–9:21 Romans 8:24–25: Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we have hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. (ESV) Invite Him in with this episode's questions for reflection. What circumstance overwhelms you this time of year? Bring it to God in prayer, especially in the moments after you receive Him in the Eucharist. Do not rush out of Mass. If possible, stay for fifteen minutes in the quiet, thanking God and praying for the impossible. Show mentions. Our presenting sponsor is CB Jewelry. Faith is beautiful—and it's your best accessory.

    You don't have to step away for three weeks to feel like yourself again. Walking the Camino reminded me that freedom doesn't come from clearing your calendar — it comes from reconnecting with yourself. Burnout blurs that connection, especially when you're living in overdrive, measuring your worth by how much you do. But presence returns when you give yourself permission to pause, even for a few minutes at a time. In this episode, I share how micro-sabbatical moments can shift the rhythm of your day and help you come home to the truth of who you are. These simple morning, midday, and evening rituals invite ease, clarity, and sovereignty back into your life — without waiting for the "right time" to rest. When you ground yourself in small, intentional pauses, you create a life that feels more aligned and less pressured. What we explore Why burnout convinces you rest must be earned How micro-sabbatical moments restore inner spaciousness Three tiny rituals that reconnect you with yourself The role of resistance, guilt, and busyness in keeping you stuck How to shift from performance to presence The truth about building freedom through daily choice If you're craving deeper clarity and connection, join me for Reignite Your Spark, my free five-day experience designed to help you reconnect with your desires and the feelings you want to live inside of.

    How to Get a BLACKBELT.....from Me.

    The Hickory Academy Leadership Podcast

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 1, 2025 10:39


    #1) Be consistent. That means training two to three classes a week. Your house does not count, coming in and assistant instructing does not count. You should be on the mat training twice a week if your intention is to get a black belt. If not….you can still get an enormous benefit of training once a week, or twice a week every other week, etc…..you just aren't going to earn a black belt until you get serious about your attendance. Just like you can get very knowledgeable about medicine and surgery at the library and attending some classes at college…..but until you commit to medical school and graduate….you will not be a doctor. #2) Train Hard, Train Smart. You can come in and give a halfhearted effort, you can come in and train like every fight is personal…..neither will earn you a black belt. The lukewarm person will not gain the real skills to pass, and definitely not survive the test, the overzealous person will end up hurting themselves or getting too injured to train frequently enough to test, or have the finesse required to become a black belt. #3) Know the Curriculum.  We have had many world champions and amazing athletes at the Academy, all of them that received black belts know the curriculum and are able to teach it. You don't have to love all of it, and in fact most gravitate to one of the big four: Fighting, Forms, Self Defense, or Pad Work…but you have to know it all and be able to demonstrate it. #4) Be a Good Ambassador. In some fields your talent can make up for your personality, in martial arts it cannot. You have to be a good role model….not a perfect person, but a person in pursuit of perfection. #5) Be in Shape. You do not have to be an Olympian, D1 athlete or on the cover of Muscle and Fitness….but you should be in good cardiovascular shape, be strong, and have healthy habits. That means making sacrifices outside of the Dojo for your health and fitness and should reflect a life long goal of longevity and good overall health. #6) Be Motivated. You should come to class ready to learn and your passion for training and improving should be evident. Everyone has tough days and we are here to support your through those….but not every day. You are responsible for being passionate about growth, getting better, and being the best version of you! #7) Be Positive. Very similar to number 6, and maybe even more important. “Where attention goes, energy flows.” especially when we are talking about having a positive or negative mindset. What to find the good in your life…start looking for it, what to find the bad…..start looking for it. Find the good in martial arts, and training hard! #8) Be ok with walking alone. Walking with friends is always more fun, it just is. Training with friends is too. Understand however some of your training partners are going to break your heart. Everyone does not make it to black belt, and even some of the ones that do will quit. They are really quitting on themselves….but it feels like they are quitting on you and the Academy. That's difficult to deal with, but it's a part of high level success at anything. Sometimes we have to be ok with walking alone. #9) Bring Someone with you. The antidote for #8! Invite people to train, encourage them to stay, invest in their success and watch your success skyrocket. #10) Have a White Belt Attitude, with a Black belt Brain. White belts are so excited and grateful to train, they give it 100 percent and desperately want to improve…..their only hindrance is the lack of repetition and knowledge. As people increase in rank that fire can diminish. The saddest thing I see is a Green/Brown belt that has gone lukewarm, cynical, or thinks they know everything. Have a white belt mentality, upgraded with the reps and knowledge of a black belt. It truly is the best of both worlds.

    In this message, we dive into the uncomfortable but necessary truth about living one way in public and another in private. Jesus calls us to authenticity—real, rooted faith—not a life spent balancing on the tightrope of double standards. We start by examining the Reality Disconnect Jesus warns about in Luke 12:2–3, where everything hidden will eventually be revealed. From there, we look at how “flexible morals” can feel right in the moment but ultimately lead us down a destructive path, just as Proverbs 14:12 warns. We then confront the difference between a superficial faith and a deep, rooted walk with Christ. Colossians 2:6–7 reminds us that true discipleship is built on spiritual depth, not performance. And as Galatians 6:7–8 teaches, living a double life always carries consequences—our choices will eventually bear fruit, for better or worse. But this message doesn't end in warning—it ends in hope. You don't have to keep walking the tightrope. We talk through four practical steps to break free from the double life: Confess and Repent (1 John 1:9) Fix your eyes on Jesus (Hebrews 12:2) Walk in the Spirit daily (Galatians 5:16) Pursue Accountability (James 5:16) If you're tired of pretending, tired of juggling two identities, or simply hungry for a more genuine faith, this message will encourage and challenge you.

    Date: November 30, 2025 Speaker: Rev. Jason Coker Scripture: Isaiah 2:1–5 Welcome to the first week of Advent at The Collective Table. In this episode, Co-Lead Minister Jason Coker explores the season's first theme: Hope. We often think of hope as a childish wish for magic—like the anticipation of Santa Claus on Christmas morning. But what happens when we grow up and face the inevitable disillusionment of the world? Jason guides us through the journey from "childish naiveté" through adolescent cynicism, and finally into what philosopher Paul Ricoeur calls a "Second Naiveté"—a mature, chosen hope that believes in peace even when the world is at war. Drawing from the prophet Isaiah, we look at the radical vision of a God who teaches wisdom rather than conquest, and an invitation to turn our swords into plowshares right here and now. Key Takeaways: The Evolution of Hope: Moving from the "childish magic" of believing in Santa Claus to the "adult magic" of realizing we are loved by people who truly see us. Tribal Warrior vs. Universal Teacher: How Isaiah 2 shifts the image of God from a tribal chieftain of war to a universal source of wisdom and instruction. The Second Naiveté: Overcoming cynicism not by forcing God's hand, but by choosing to believe in goodness and righteousness despite the evidence around us. Walking the Talk: A celebration of the Oceanside Sanctuary community's 150th Anniversary and a reminder that our actions provide the evidence that this "naive" hope is real. Memorable Quotes: "When you go and try to conquer on that God's behalf, you have fundamentally said you do not believe in a God of goodness and righteousness and peace." "We can be the evidence for the rest of the community... that this naive hope is worth believing." Resources: This Podcast is a production of The Oceanside Sanctuary.

    Title: The Eternal WordSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this sermon from John 1, Pastor Nate Holdridge explores the profound opening of John's Gospel—the Logos, the eternal Word who was with God and was God, and who became flesh to dwell among us. Walking through the encounters of John 2–11, Pastor Nate shows how Jesus met every form of human darkness: religious confusion, moral shame, physical helplessness, spiritual blindness, and even death itself. The sermon culminates in the Bethany scene of John 12, where Mary's extravagant anointing and Judas's cold calculation present two starkly different responses to the Light who has come. We must consider which response will be ours—will we pour out our lives in worship, or will we remain calculating in the darkness?

    November 30th, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 1:5-25In this powerful Advent message, Pastor Matt Darby kicks off our series, “Attributes of Advent,” by taking us deep into the story behind the story—the God who longs to be known. Advent means arrival, and in the arrival of Jesus we don't just discover a Savior—we discover the very heart, character, and nature of God Himself.Walking through Luke 1:5–25 and the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, Pastor Matt reveals two attributes that shine brilliantly in the Christmas narrative: God's sovereignty and God's mercy. Through a faithful but barren couple, an unexpected priestly assignment, and a long-awaited angelic message, we see a God who rules over every detail and moves with relentless compassion.Pastor Matt shows us:God's Sovereignty over Seasons — Our waiting is never wasted. God orchestrates every chapter of our lives with purpose, even when circumstances feel silent or stagnant.God's Mercy in Our Suffering — He sees our obedience, acknowledges our hurt, and meets us with His presence before His provision.God's Sovereignty Over Every Detail — Nothing about Zechariah's moment in the temple was random; God had placed him precisely where he needed to be.God's Mercy in Hearing Every Prayer — Even long-buried prayers are remembered by the God who treasures the cries of His people.God's Sovereignty Over the Impossible — Age, biology, and limitation cannot hinder the purposes of God.God's Mercy in the Miracle — God not only gave Zechariah and Elizabeth a child—He gave them a prophet who would prepare the way for the Messiah.God's Sovereignty and Mercy in Our Doubt — Zechariah's unbelief didn't derail God's plan. God lovingly disciplines, but He never abandons. Doubt doesn't disqualify us—God's mercy holds us even there.Through this message, Pastor Matt calls us to see our own lives through the lens of who God truly is: a sovereign King writing every line of our story, and a merciful Father filling those lines with compassion, patience, and purpose.If you find yourself waiting, suffering, longing for the impossible, or wrestling with doubt—this episode will remind you that God is working in every season, hearing every prayer, and moving in ways far greater than you can see.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

Walking through Jonah 1, he shows how the prophet's reluctance exposes the gap between knowing God's heart and actually sharing it with the world.Jonah is called to preach to Nineveh, a violent enemy of Israel, yet he runs—fast and far. Not out of simple fear, Pastor Billy explains, but because Jonah knows God is merciful… and he doesn't want that mercy extended to people he considers undeserving. Even still, God's mercy moves relentlessly: toward pagans, toward enemies, toward stubborn prophets who would rather drown than obey.

    Why Independent Financial Advisors Choose Income Over Index Performance for Retirement Portfolios

    Building a Financial Advisory Firm That Puts Clients First: An Inside Look at the Process Meta Description: Discover why Tom Dupree founded Dupree Financial Group in Lexington, Kentucky—focusing on personalized investment management, team accountability, and retirement planning for local clients. For pre-retirees and retirees in Kentucky searching for personalized investment management, understanding the “why” behind your financial advisor matters just as much as the “how.” In this special episode of The Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, Tom Dupree Jr. and Mike Johnson share the founding story of Dupree Financial Group—a journey that began with a simple walk in the woods near Natural Bridge in Kentucky in February 2002 and evolved into a comprehensive wealth management approach designed specifically for Lexington-area retirement investors. The Origin Story: From Brokerage Dissatisfaction to Independent Registered Investment Advisor Tom Dupree recalls the pivotal moment that sparked the creation of Dupree Financial Group. Walking through the woods with his young son James on his shoulders, he realized the traditional brokerage firm model wasn’t aligned with the future he envisioned for his family and clients. “I got this joy, this excitement in my heart thinking about doing this,” Tom explains. “I was in no position to do it at all. I didn’t have any money. Strangely, my banker approved me for a loan to actually go get the office space and get it fitted up. And that fit-up is still the same fit-up we’re using. We have not changed it.” The firm officially opened in 2003, but Tom identifies 2010 as the true beginning of Dupree Financial Group as it exists today. That’s when the firm disassociated from an outside brokerage and became an independent Registered Investment Advisor (RIA). “In 2010, we disassociated ourselves with an outside brokerage firm and became what’s called an RIA, a Registered Investment Advisor, which meant that now we’re not paying 25% of our revenues to an outside firm,” Tom shares. “That enabled us to do a lot more internally, and it really was the beginning of the firm that we know today.” Key Takeaways: Why Dupree Financial Group Started Client-focused mission: Created to serve average retirement investors who wouldn’t necessarily get attention from major brokerage firms Cost structure advantage: Lower overhead means smaller accounts receive meaningful attention and personalized service Local accountability: Designed specifically to respond to clients in Lexington, Kentucky, and the surrounding region Team approach: Built from the ground up to provide collaborative service rather than single-broker relationships Independence: Becoming an RIA in 2010 eliminated the pressure to use proprietary products and allowed true fiduciary responsibility Personalized Investment Management vs. Mass-Market Approaches One of the core distinctions Tom emphasizes is the difference between Dupree Financial Group’s model and the mass-market approach taken by larger national firms. Rather than assigning clients to investment counselors within a large hierarchy, Dupree Financial Group provides direct access to portfolio managers who actually research and select the investments. “When you’re talking to somebody, to one of us, the team that you’re talking to is also the team that is designing your investment portfolio, actually helping pick stocks and bonds to own in the portfolio,” Tom explains. “Now why is that a big deal? Well, when I was with Brand X, they had a guy in New York who was brilliant, and he really was brilliant, and he was a stock picker. You didn’t ever talk to him, but he would publish a list of things that you ought to buy.” That approach failed catastrophically during the 2001-2002 market downturn, when many clients saw portfolios decline 50% with little communication or accountability from their advisors. “It wasn’t so much the fact that everything went down, although that was a big part of it, but it was the lack of communication,” Tom notes. “It was not being willing to be accountable for what really had happened, and they just clammed up.” The Dupree Difference: Direct Access and Transparency Mike Johnson highlights several critical advantages of the Dupree Financial Group model: Team collaboration: Multiple professionals work together on research and portfolio management, producing better outcomes than single-advisor approaches Direct communication: Clients speak directly with the team members who make investment decisions Own investment selection: The firm conducts its own research and calls companies directly rather than relying on buy lists from headquarters Local presence: All revenues stay local and are reinvested in client services rather than flowing to Wall Street firms “The service team is way more aligned with the investment team,” Mike explains. “It’s not two separate functions sitting in the same room.” Investment Philosophy: Focus on Income and Risk Mitigation for Kentucky Retirement Planning Unlike money managers competing to beat specific indices, Dupree Financial Group takes a different approach focused specifically on retirement investors’ needs. This investment philosophy prioritizes income generation and risk mitigation over performance rankings. “We’re not trying to beat any index. We’re just investing in things that we see are good that we think meet our parameters for what we’re looking for,” Tom states. “The why is it’s a focus on risk mitigation, and it’s a focus on income. Those things actually make it pretty easy for us once we tie down the parameters of what we’re looking for.” Mike Johnson references a quote from investment manager Howard Marks that encapsulates a key industry problem: “If you want to be in the top 5% of money managers, you have to be willing to be in the bottom 5% too.” That statement, Mike explains, highlights the perverse incentives created when advisors chase index performance rather than focusing on actual client needs. Real Portfolio Examples: How the Strategy Works The team shares several examples of their investment approach in action: The 6.5% Dividend Stock: “We bought it in June. This company, our listeners would be familiar with. At the time, it had a six-and-a-half percent dividend yield, and the valuation was attractive when you look at the hard assets that they had. We felt some things could go right for the company over the next couple of years. And in the meantime, the stock had gone down significantly, so there was a lot of bad news priced in already. Since then, the stock has gone up to what we thought it would go up to over the next two to four years. It just did it in four months.” The Grocery Company: “We invested in a company the other day—it was a grocery company well known within Central Kentucky. It’s gotten cheap. We just knew it as being a household name that pays a small dividend.” The Clothing Brand: “It’s kind of a clothing company, well-known. It puts out some major, well-known brands. The thing’s gone from a hundred dollars to 30-something, so we decided to take a look there. That one pays a pretty good dividend.” These examples demonstrate the value-focused, income-oriented approach that differentiates Dupree Financial Group from index-chasing strategies. The Team Approach: Building Long-Term Relationships Over Transactions A fundamental principle at Dupree Financial Group is the shift from transactional relationships to ongoing partnerships. Tom explains how his years at major brokerage firms taught him what he didn’t want to replicate. “One thing that I learned in the big firms was that it’s always about the transaction. It’s about the trade,” Tom recalls. “You were constantly having to pursue that trade, do this trade with this client, do that trade with that client. I didn’t want it to be about the trade anymore. I wanted it to be about the relationship.” This philosophy manifests in several concrete ways: Regular review process: Unlike transactional brokerage relationships, Dupree Financial Group built systematic client reviews into the firm’s DNA from the beginning No pressure to sell: Because clients have already committed to the process, meetings focus on education and information rather than sales Team accountability: Multiple team members take responsibility for each client rather than the single-broker model Transparent communication: When investments don’t work out, the team explains why openly rather than avoiding difficult conversations “When our clients come in for a review or they call with a question, they know we’re not trying to sell them anything,” Mike emphasizes. “It’s informational. It’s actually something they can use.” Direct Company Research: An Uncommon Practice One aspect of Dupree Financial Group’s approach that sets them apart is their practice of directly contacting companies they invest in—something Tom notes is rare among medium and small-sized investment advisors. “We do calls with these companies. In some cases, we’ve gone to visit them—the actual company itself that we’re investing in,” Tom explains. “That would’ve been unheard of in our previous setup. A big part of what we do is talk to the clients—I say clients, the businesses that we invest in. We talk to them, we want to find out what they’re doing, learn a little bit about management and do the best we can to really do our due diligence.” This hands-on research approach provides insights that buy lists and analyst reports simply cannot match. Four Generations of Financial Service: The Dupree Family Legacy The commitment to serving clients runs deep in the Dupree family history. Tom shares how his grandfather entered the investment business around 1920 in Louisville, Kentucky, selling preferred stock for Louisville Gas and Electric directly to the public before moving into municipal bonds. “My grandfather was the first one of our line that was in the investment business,” Tom explains. “Then my dad got into the business after being in the navy, I think it was around 1955 in Harlan, Kentucky. Then me and now my two sons are in the business.” Tom’s father moved the family to Lexington in 1963 and founded Dupree and Company, which managed municipal bond issues and eventually started the Kentucky Tax Free Mutual Fund in 1979. “Their idea was always to make a thing for clients that the clients could use, that was a retail thing,” Tom notes. “And so I carried that concern for the clients into what I did when we started Dupree Financial Group.” This multi-generational focus on creating client-centered investment solutions forms the foundation of the firm’s culture today. Tom’s sons, Clark and James, are involved with Dupree Financial Group, making the fourth generation of Duprees in the investment business. The Evolution: Early Struggles to Established Success Tom is refreshingly transparent about the challenges of the firm’s early years. After opening in 2003, success didn’t come easily or quickly. “It certainly was frightening during those early days of opening the firm and wondering if anybody would ever show up,” Tom recalls. “We did all these seminars, lots of them, over a hundred. People would show up, and now and then we’d get a client out of it. It took a lot of work.” The firm began regular radio broadcasts around 2008, which helped build awareness and credibility in the Lexington community. But the real transformation came in 2010 with the transition to RIA status. “When we became an RIA, it opened up possibilities for investment options that we didn’t have before,” Mike reflects. “It got the pressure of the heavy hand off to use proprietary products. That hand was always on you. And so that was lifted. It was like the skies opened up that you had this flexibility now.” Mike adds a crucial point about this transition: “At the same time, that was a sobering feeling. Now it was on you. You can’t blame it on anybody. But from our client’s standpoint, that was something that was a positive because the accountability increased for the firm.” Client Retention: The Ultimate Validation Perhaps the strongest validation of Dupree Financial Group’s approach is client retention. Tom notes that the firm keeps clients longer and longer—a testament to the relationship-building model. “We seem to be keeping clients longer and longer, so evidently we did something right,” Tom observes. “Once we got the buggy built, we really haven’t fooled with it much. We’ve tried to do some tweaks here and there, but the basic chassis has served us pretty well.” Why the “Why” Matters for Kentucky Retirement Investors For pre-retirees and retirees evaluating financial advisors, understanding the “why” behind a firm’s approach provides crucial insight into what kind of service you’ll receive. Dupree Financial Group’s founding principles remain consistent today: Serve retirement investors who might not get attention from large brokerage firms Maintain local presence and accountability in Lexington, Kentucky Provide team-based service rather than single-advisor relationships Focus on income and risk mitigation rather than index performance Conduct independent research and select individual investments Build long-term relationships rather than pursuing transactions Communicate transparently about both successes and setbacks As Tom reflects: “It really wasn’t about the investment performance. It’s about the touch, it’s about the accountability, those sorts of things. And that’s the kind of thing we’ve set up. That was what I envisioned when I started this thing—that we would give the clients more of what they should have been getting at the Wall Street firms.” Ready to Experience the Dupree Financial Group Difference?

Frequently Asked Questions About Dupree Financial Group What makes Dupree Financial Group different from large brokerage firms? Dupree Financial Group operates as an independent Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), meaning the firm doesn’t pay commissions to Wall Street parent companies and doesn’t face pressure to use proprietary products. The team that meets with clients is the same team that researches and selects investments, providing direct accountability and transparency. All revenues stay local and reinvest in client services rather than flowing to distant corporate headquarters. Why did Tom Dupree start his own financial advisory firm? Tom founded Dupree Financial Group in 2003 after 19 years with a major brokerage firm, where he witnessed the limitations of the transactional, sales-focused model. He envisioned creating a firm that would serve average retirement investors with personalized attention, team-based accountability, and a focus on long-term relationships rather than individual trades. The firm became truly independent in 2010 when it transitioned to RIA status. What is the investment philosophy at Dupree Financial Group? Unlike money managers competing to beat specific indices, Dupree Financial Group focuses on income generation and risk mitigation for retirement investors. The team conducts its own research, including direct calls to companies they invest in, and selects individual stocks and bonds based on dividend yield, valuation, and margin of safety rather than trying to match or beat market benchmarks. How does the team approach at Dupree Financial Group benefit clients? The team model means clients receive the collective expertise of multiple professionals rather than relying on a single advisor’s perspective. Multiple team members share responsibility for each client account, improving service levels and ensuring continuity. This collaborative approach produces better research outcomes and provides clients with consistent access to knowledgeable professionals. What types of clients does Dupree Financial Group serve? Dupree Financial Group specializes in serving pre-retirees and retirees, particularly those who might not receive personalized attention from large brokerage firms. The firm’s cost structure allows them to provide meaningful, customized service to clients with retirement accounts of various sizes, with a focus on the Lexington, Kentucky area and surrounding regions. How often does Dupree Financial Group communicate with clients? Regular client reviews are built into the firm’s DNA from the beginning. Unlike transactional brokerage relationships where communication happens only when making trades, Dupree Financial Group maintains ongoing dialogue with clients through systematic review processes. These meetings focus on education and information rather than sales, since clients have already committed to the firm’s investment process. Does Dupree Financial Group charge fees or commissions? As a fee-based Registered Investment Advisor, Dupree Financial Group operates under a fiduciary standard, meaning it’s legally required to act in clients’ best interests. This fee-based structure eliminates conflicts of interest inherent in commission-based brokerage relationships and aligns the firm’s success with client outcomes.

    Are you just going through the motions? Following others without testing the spirit?  Don't let unhealed people, even social media gurus and high-level Christian entrepreneurs, sway you from the path God has laid out specifically for you. Discernment is key. The narrow path isn't easy peasy to follow, but always rewarding. Trust the Holy Spirit's guidance above everyone else's clamor. Others mean well, but your journey is NOT their journey ... I've learned this the hard way, my friends.  A genuine relationship with Jesus is a continuous healing journey of repentance, persistence, perseverance, and resisting the enemy's attacks. A weak relationship with Jesus will cause everything else to crumble in your life. Many start relying on performance and man-made religions instead of a fruitful relationship with Jesus Christ.

    Today Daily Devotional

    “If you follow my decrees and are careful to obey my commands, I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops. . . .” — Leviticus 26:3 When we are living in a right relationship with God, we can be assured of his blessing and favor. Our text in Leviticus today describes material, social, and economic favor that God gave his people as they lived in a right relationship with him.Many of us experience similar blessings. Our cupboards are filled with plenty for us to eat. We enjoy success in our work and stability in our homes and families. But even when that isn't the case, we can count on God's spiritual care. God keeps his promises to us and is always with us (see Matthew 28:20).We do well to remember always, though, that we are called to walk in obedience to God. While this cannot earn God's love for us or earn us salvation, we experience more fully our enjoyment of God when we strive to walk in his ways. Walking with God fills us with joy and delight in his presence.There is no greater blessing than to live each day with the Lord, who loves us more than we can imagine (Ephesians 3:16-21). In Leviticus, God reminds his people that he redeemed them in order to live among them. This is true for us today as well! At the cross, Jesus freed us from our slavery and guilt in sin so that we can walk with him, delighting in his presence and living with thankfulness each day for him. Father, you have redeemed us to be your treasured possession. Help us to live in gratitude to you each day. Show us the joy of obedience to you! In Christ's name we pray. Amen.

    Most people think you need sweat, strain, or long workouts to upgrade circulation, metabolism, and energy. What if your body could unlock all of that while you stand still? This episode reveals how to get a full body workout by doing absolutely nothing, and why a few minutes of targeted vibration can activate nitric oxide, improve microcirculation, calm your nervous system, and relieve the hidden damage from sitting all day. Host Dave Asprey shows you why the simplest biohack in the room might be the most powerful one you are not using. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Tommy Rhee, DC, a board-certified chiropractor known for his innovative approach to sports medicine and regenerative therapy. Dr. Rhee has treated professional athletes, starting NFL quarterbacks, and everyday people who want better mobility and faster recovery. He served as the official team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and worked with multiple UCLA athletic programs. He also created RheeGen, a patent-pending topical transdermal stem cell cream that introduces a non-invasive path to tissue repair and pain relief. His book, The Future of Regenerative Medicine, outlines how topical stem cell treatments can transform performance and healing. Dr. Rhee's background as a U.S. Navy aircrew member aboard S-3 Viking jets gives him a precision-driven understanding of human performance, resilience, and stress adaptation. In this episode, Dr. Rhee explains why whole body vibration works as a cheat code for circulation, fascia mobility, balance, mood, and nitric oxide activation. He shows how vibration increases microcirculation in places your workouts never reach, why it boosts lymphatic flow better than walking, and how it sends rapid-fire sensory signals that improve proprioception and stress recovery. You also learn why older adults benefit even more from this simple tool, how athletes use it as a warmup to conserve energy, and why three plane vibration dramatically outperforms cheap two dimensional devices. Dave and Dr. Rhee show you how to pair vibration with fasting, ketosis, nootropics, supplements, Danger Coffee, and Smarter Not Harder style training for maximum biohacking efficiency. You'll Learn: • How to mimic the benefits of a full workout while standing still • Why nitric oxide drives circulation, longevity, and metabolic health • How vibration accelerates lymphatic drainage and clears stagnation • Why whole body vibration improves balance, sensory speed, and neuroplasticity • How athletes warm up with vibration to protect energy reserves • Why triplanar vibration beats two dimensional devices for real results • How vibration supports pelvic floor strength and erectile function • How to use vibration for joint protection, fascia mobility, and mitochondrial activation • The daily protocol Dr. Rhee uses for stress relief, mood, and brain optimization Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

    Week four of the Ending Well series lands right at the halfway mark. This episode is a look back over a three-year road (starting in 2022) of how God helped me fight inflammation, feel like myself again, and regain my "glow." This is not a weight-loss talk, not a quick-fix list, and not medical advice. It's a redemption story about healing from the inside out — spiritually, emotionally, and physically. "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers." — 3 John 1:2 Key Themes Redemption doesn't just cover salvation; it keeps working through sanctification and healing. Inflammation wasn't just a food problem — it was also a soul and nervous system problem. Real health change is slow, layered, and personal. Your timeline will not look like mine. The glow came as a byproduct of feeling better and living freer, not chasing beauty. Important Disclaimers This episode is descriptive, not prescriptive. Not medical advice. Always talk with a qualified professional for your situation. Do not try to do everything at once. This was a year of foundations plus a total three-year process. One percent better beats perfect overnight. The Story: How the Dominoes Fell 1. August 2022: Stepping Back From Fear-Driven "Crunchy" Culture I was drowning in rules, guilt, and constant fear of what might be harming me. The anxiety and striving became more toxic than the ingredients I was avoiding. First domino: I quit trying to do it all perfectly and started living with grace, budget reality, and peace. Lowering my standards for myself lowered my inflammation. "Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." — Matthew 11:28 2. October 2022: A Major Boundary With a Toxic Relationship I set a serious boundary with someone whose presence fueled self-hatred. Went no contact for about six months. The inner tape of shame and criticism began to quiet. I learned that giving up self-hatred is profoundly anti-inflammatory. Recommended resource mentioned: When to Walk Away by Gary Thomas (plus podcast interview) "Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." — Proverbs 4:23 3. Early 2023: Changing How I Worked Out I stopped high-intensity workouts that were spiking cortisol daily. Switched to lifting heavy and slow, more functional strength training. Worked out less, recovered more. Energy improved, inflammation eased, confidence rose. Current favorite: Nourish Move Love workouts on YouTube. Big takeaway: exercise is a gift, not punishment. 4. February to May 2023: Going Gluten-Free and Cutting Back on Alcohol Grain Brain by Dr. David Perlmutter was a turning point. I tried going gluten-free (cold turkey, not ideal but it worked). Brain fog cleared, bloat dropped, inflammation noticeably reduced. Cutting alcohol alongside gluten made a huge difference. I don't need to understand every mechanism to honor what clearly helps my body. Reminder: everyone has a "thing" — gluten, dairy, sugar, alcohol, stress. Find yours with grace. 5. August 2023: Getting Off SSRIs After 15 Years A massive milestone with a full story in episode 267. For me, SSRIs were not helping inflammation or overall vitality anymore. The drop in facial inflammation from August to December was dramatic. I'm not shaming anyone on SSRIs — I was on them a long time. This was my path. "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free." — Galatians 5:1 What Actually Healed Me This part matters: the glow wasn't mainly from products. Lowering impossible expectations Creating boundaries Learning to like myself Getting out of fight-or-flight Moving my body in a gentler way Removing gluten and minimizing alcohol Walking in obedience even when it felt backwards Healing was spiritual and emotional first, physical second. "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind." — Romans 12:2 Simple "Glow Back" Skin Habits These are the practical, easy wins that helped the outside catch up to the inside. Dermaplaning at home Removes dead skin and peach fuzz. Skin care and makeup apply better. Big difference in glow and smoothness. Learn carefully through YouTube tutorials and use a quality razor. Stopping skin picking Picking was aggravating redness and irritation. I prayed about it and replaced the habit. New habit: brush my hair when the urge hits. Asking God for help in small things counts. Sponsor Spotlight: PreBorn A free ultrasound can double a mother's chance of choosing life.

Takeaways to Sit With If you're overwhelmed, start with one domino. God often heals from the root, not just the symptom. Your body listens to your beliefs. Peace, obedience, and self-kindness are deeply practical health tools. The goal isn't prettier; it's freer, healthier, and more whole. Reflective Questions What is one area where fear or perfectionism is inflaming your life? Who or what might need a boundary so you can heal? What small change feels like the next right step, not the whole staircase? How would your health shift if you treated yourself like someone God deeply loves? Closing Encouragement This glow-back story is really a "come back to life" story. It wasn't a sprint; it was obedience in baby steps. If you're in the thick of it today, don't despise the slow fade. God redeems years, bodies, minds, and hearts — and He's patient in the process. "He restores my soul." — Psalm 23:3
