In a rare live experiment, Alex Sheridan brings in a business coach, Rick Lochner, and Claude AI at the same time, using his own business as the test case, to compare what each one gets right and wrong about building a business into an asset instead of a job.Rick Lochner, founder of RPC Leadership Associates, has coached executives, small business owners, and nonprofit leaders for decades. In this episode he goes head-to-head, in real time, with Claude AI as Alex Sheridan tries to grow Podcast Builders from $5 million to $10 million in revenue at 50% margins.Key takeaways:00:00:00 IntroductionHere's how the coaching conversation actually unfolds:[00:08:26] Start with purpose, not the goal. Rick Lochner opens by asking why Alex wants to grow at all, before any numbers come up.[00:23:02] Claude AI skips straight to the numbers, asking for revenue, client count, and average contract value first.[00:45:59] Claude AI maps the growth engine: contract value, growth model, and where clients actually come from.[00:46:44] Alex catches Claude skipping positioning, and it corrects itself on the spot.[00:54:51] Rick Lochner reframes the real question behind selling a business: what would actually let you walk away.If you've ever wondered whether your business is quietly becoming a job you can't step away from, or been tempted to let AI do the thinking a real coach should be doing, this episode will change how you look at both.

Adam Schilling had his season cut short this week last year with a PCL tear in his knee. But the Wheaton North senior tight end/linebacker is a big reason why the Falcons are 4-0. That, Downers Grove North's 'Swiss Army knife' and two area QBs put up huge Week 4 numbers.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/friday-night-drive--3534096/support.This episode includes AI-generated content.

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 392, “When Later Becomes Too Late,” Kim discusses the danger of delaying our response to God's prompting. Using Jeremiah 8:20, she explores how missed opportunities for repentance and obedience can lead to regret and challenges listeners to respond to God today rather than assuming there will always be a tomorrow.   Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 8:18-22, with 20 as the focal verse:   20 “The harvest is finished,     and the summer is gone,” the people cry,     “yet we are not saved!”     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   Identify one thing you know God has been prompting you to do but you've been putting off, and take one concrete step of obedience today.   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   Don't brag about tomorrow, since you don't know what the day will bring.

Romans 13:1-7 Principles of Authority (vv. 1-2) The hierarchy: God government us The responsibility: us government God Provision of Authority (vv. 3-4) Protect the peaceful and the good Prosecute the criminal and the evil Prescription of Authority (vv. 5-7) Obey the laws (unless against Scripture: Acts 5:29) Honor the leaders (Prov. 24:21, 1 Peter 2:17) Pay the levies (Matt. 22:21-22) More to Consider Rome was the imperial capital, the seat of the empires civil government. As residents in Rome, Pauls initial readers were aware of both the glory and the shame of that city in the days of Nero, who reigned from a.d. 54 to 68. But they were also citizens of Christs kingdom (Phil. 3:20; Col. 1:13). Appropriately, therefore, Paul discussed a Christians relationship to his government and civil rulers. Both in its length and specific details this discussion is the key New Testament passage on the subject (cf. 1 Tim. 2:14; Titus 3:1; 1 Peter 2:1317). John A. Witmer, Romans, in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures, ed. J. F. Walvoord and R. B. Zuck, vol. 2 (Wheaton, IL: Victor Books, 1985), 490. When the noted Dr. Pollich, of Mellerstadt, heard Martin Luther lecture at the University of Wittenberg, he said, 'That monk will confound all the learned doctors, propound a new doctrine, and reform the whole Roman church, for he studies the writings of the prophets and evangelists. He relies on the Word of Jesus Christ, and no one can subvert that, either with philosophy or with sophistry." -True Stories Paul urged Christians to be submissive and model citizens because God has installed the governing authorities to keep the civil order and punish wrongdoers. Peter gave similar instructions about submission (1 Pt 2:1314, 17). However, submission to authorities is not absolute. Both Jesus and the writer of Acts established this central Christian principle. Jesus said, Give back to Caesar the things that are Caesars, and to God the things that are Gods (Mt 22:21). Peter and the apostles declared that they must obey God rather than human beings (Acts 5:29). Any submission to the authorities must pass through the filter of Gods will and call upon a believers life. Ted Cabal et al., The Apologetics Study Bible: Real Questions, Straight Answers, Stronger Faith (Nashville, TN: Holman Bible Publishers, 2007), 1701. Were I a sovereign, I would not have to do with atheistical courtiers whose interest it was to poison me; I should be under the necessity of taking an antidote every day. It is, then absolutely necessary for princes and people that the idea of a Supreme Being, creating governing, rewarding and punishing, be ingraven on their minds.

Partners in Mortgage survived the 2008 housing crash by staying deliberately small, tried paid advertising exactly once, and has grown ever since almost entirely through referrals.Alex Sheridan sits down with all three partners behind Partners in Mortgage: founder Chris Schejbal, and current partners Joe Spero and Sam Noffs. They talk about why the company has deliberately never grown past a small team, the one paid ad campaign that famously flopped, how referrals have carried the business ever since, and why they believe real estate quietly outperforms the stock market as an investment.Key takeaways:00:00:00 Introduction00:08:57Q: How did staying a small company help a mortgage business survive the 2008 housing crash?A: Chris Schejbal explains that because Partners in Mortgage never grew past a small team, they were able to pivot and stay open through 2008 instead of laying people off or closing their doors like bigger competitors did.00:23:05Q: Does advertising actually work for a small mortgage business?A: Chris Schejbal says paid advertising never worked for Partners in Mortgage. The one time they tried a money-mailer campaign, the only response they got back turned out to be a family member, so the company has grown almost entirely through referrals ever since.00:26:16Q: How much money can a mortgage broker actually save a client compared to a big bank?A: Joe Spero says the average savings works out to about $10,000 per client, largely because a broker only gets paid when the loan actually closes.00:48:03Q: Is real estate a better investment than the stock market?A: Sam Noffs argues real estate wins because of leverage, letting an investor put down a fraction of a property's value and still capture the full appreciation plus any rental income.00:55:31Q: Why is it harder to buy a first home today than it was 20 years ago?A: Sam Noffs and Joe Spero say home prices have appreciated faster than wages for years, pushing the average first-time homebuyer's age up to 38.If you've ever assumed you need to advertise to grow, or that the stock market is the smarter place to put your money, this episode will make you rethink both.

Julian Good runs a Chick-fil-A that pulls in roughly $8 million a year, stays closed every Sunday, and can't be sold or passed down to his kids.Alex Sheridan talks with Julian Good, owner and operator of Chick-fil-A St. Charles, about the $10,000 franchise fee, the 15% Chick-fil-A takes off revenue, and why the operator model looks nothing like any other franchise. They also get into Chick-fil-A's two-sentence corporate purpose, why automation can quietly gut a business built on people, and what Julian eats to stay lean working in fast food six days a week.Key takeaways:00:00:00 Introduction00:13:26Q: How much does it cost to start a Chick-fil-A franchise?A: Julian Good says the franchise fee is $10,000, unchanged in 50 years, and operators can't sell or pass down the business when they retire.00:16:18Q: How much does the average Chick-fil-A location make per year?A: Julian Good says average volume runs around $8 million a year, more than double a typical McDonald's, despite being closed on Sundays.00:18:02Q: How much of a Chick-fil-A operator's profit does the company take?A: Julian Good says Chick-fil-A takes 15% of revenue, cutting a typical 30% restaurant margin roughly in half.00:26:38Q: What is Chick-fil-A's corporate purpose?A: Julian Good explains it in two sentences: to glorify God and have a positive influence on everyone the company touches, and says it drives every executive decision.00:44:26Q: Why hasn't Chick-fil-A joined the tipflation trend?A: Julian Good says Chick-fil-A has stayed out of prompting customers to tip 20 to 30% at the counter, unlike most quick service chains.If you've ever wondered how Chick-fil-A actually works behind the counter, this episode breaks it down.

The task seemed impossible: For as long as we’ve been waiting for these Week 1 games and talking about them, especially the two in the Chicago suburbs featuring four of the top five teams in the country, they couldn’t possibly live up to the hype we’d given them. Could they? Well, perhaps they couldn’t both live up to the hype, but one sure as heck did, as No. 5 Wheaton knocked off No. 3 Mount Union when offensive guard Aiden Byrne blocked the Purple Raiders’ attempt to tie the game with an extra point kick with 22 seconds left. So it was all celebration for the Thunder, and Patrick Coleman was there and brings the sounds and the observations, as we hear from Wheaton coach Jesse Scott in Fast Five, and we’ll hear from Byrne as well. Patrick was also at the Bethel-North Central game, three-quarters of it anyway, so he got the gist, and we’ll talk about the key new personnel for North Central as well as what was missing for Bethel, plus the things that the No. 1-ranked Cardinals and No. 2 Royals need to work on. And we’ll dive heavily into No. 11 St. John’s win vs. No. 10 UW-La Crosse also. And how many viewers did the Wheaton win get? Logan Hansen comes back to the podcast for the regular season with his breakdown of the top learnings from the week from an analytics perspective in Analytics 301, a 3 minute and 1 second swing through the big games coming up as well as key questions: Will the WIAC have a decent shot of getting four teams in the playoffs again? Plus, Patrick and Greg Thomas swing through all six regions of Division III. Who’s only just begun in Region 1? Who has a clue in Region 2, etc.? Plus they hand out game balls, pick out the stats of the week, and answer your mailbag questions. How did our team’s Week 1 predictions go? Yes, we hold each other accountable for that and we’ll own up to it on every weekly podcast. Plus, in the Final Countdown, three results that surprised each of us from this week.

This spring, the Daily Inter Lake partnered with Kalispell Public Schools on Civic Voices, a news literacy course teaching Kalispell Middle School eighth graders the fundamentals of journalism. This August, six of those students returned as rising freshmen for a Storytelling Bootcamp, where they built on that foundation with hands-on interviewing and profile writing, telling the stories of six people shaping the Kalispell community. In this episode, student Serena Carlson interviews Hans Axelsen, owner of Wheaton's Cycle, a Kalispell bike shop with a 108-year history. Axelsen talks about starting as a shop mechanic at 15 and working his way to ownership, why he left Colorado's Front Range for Montana as Denver's growth ate into his time to snowboard, and the eleven-mile bike commute he rode into work for years, winter included. He also breaks down the least glamorous part of running a bike shop: keeping inventory accurate across a quarter million parts.Serena's full written profile of Axelsen appears in the Daily Inter Lake on September 9.Northwest Montana deserves strong news reporting.

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 391, “Don't Waste the Fire,” Kim discusses the powerful imagery of the refiner's fire in Jeremiah 6:27–30. She explores how difficult seasons can reveal what is hidden within us and how God can use those experiences to refine our hearts. The challenge is not simply to survive the fire, but to allow God to use it to transform us.   Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 6:27-30.   27  “Jeremiah, I have made you a tester of metals,     that you may determine the quality of my people. 28  They are the worst kind of rebel,     full of slander. They are as hard as bronze and iron,     and they lead others into corruption. 29  The bellows fiercely fan the flames     to burn out the corruption. But it does not purify them,     for the wickedness remains. 30  I will label them ‘Rejected Silver,'     for I, the Lord, am discarding them.”     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   This week, identify one piece of spiritual “dross” God may be revealing in your life.   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   6 So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. 7 These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. (1 Peter 1:6-7) 2 Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. 3 For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. 4 So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.

A former SWAT cop who hates gun shops bought a 100-year-old bank and built one of the most creative firearms businesses in the country.In this episode of Founder Talk, Alex Sheridan sits down with Matthew Gerard, founder of Down Range CC in Rochelle, Illinois. From John Wick-style tastings inside a historic bank vault to challenge coins that replace business cards, Matthew is building an experience-driven brand in a lower income town that pulls customers from miles away.Key takeaways:00:00:00 Introduction00:01:36Q: How do you build a unique business in a traditional industry like firearms retail?A: Matthew Gerard explains that he hated the standard gun shop model, so he designed his store around education and premium experiences rather than volume sales. The building itself, a historic 1908 bank with an original vault, became the centerpiece of a completely different customer experience.00:36:35Q: How do you market a luxury product in a lower income area?A: Matthew Gerard spends as little time in his shop as possible and instead goes to golf outings and Chamber of Commerce events in wealthier surrounding towns. He gets in front of people with money rather than waiting for them to find him.00:40:10Q: Why are women the fastest growing market in firearms and how should gun shops respond?A: Matthew Gerard notes that most gun shops are not female friendly and default to handing women a small pink gun. Down Range has offered ladies-only classes for years and designs every element of the store experience to be welcoming regardless of gender.00:55:04Q: How do you market a firearms business when social media platforms shadow ban gun content?A: Matthew Gerard discovered that Facebook monitors the first 30 seconds of live streams. He opens every stream with "Welcome to the Down Range Natural History Museum" to bypass the filter, then transitions to gun sales content. The hack worked so well that Facebook is now paying him for engagement.01:00:01Q: Why is firearms training so critical even if you already own a gun?A: Matthew Gerard compares most gun owners to Linus from Peanuts carrying a security blanket. The gun makes them feel safe but they have never trained under stress. Down Range uses force-on-force training with airsoft to simulate real threat scenarios.

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 390, “When the Alarm Sounds,” Kim discusses the responses we can have to physical alarms and how we may have similar responses to spiritual alarms. In today's text, we see the prophet Jeremiah distraught at the consequences he hears coming and how this will impact the people he has been called to warn. Yet, the people seem unconcerned about the danger and keep going on with their lives as if they do not have a care in the world. Does this sound familiar to anyone today?   Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 4:19-22, with 19-21 as the focal verses:   19  My heart, my heart—I writhe in pain!     My heart pounds within me! I cannot be still. For I have heard the blast of enemy trumpets     and the roar of their battle cries. 20  Waves of destruction roll over the land,     until it lies in complete desolation. Suddenly my tents are destroyed;     in a moment my shelters are crushed. 21  How long must I see the battle flags     and hear the trumpets of war?     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   For the next seven days, pay attention to the “warning lights” God may be using to get your attention.   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/encouragingothersinlovingjesus X - https://x.com/eoinlovingjesus?s=21&t=YcRjZQUpvP7FrJmm7Pe1hg INSTAGRAM -  https://www.instagram.com/encouragingothersinlovingjesus/ “Encouraging Others in Loving Jesus” YouTube Channel: Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@EncouragingOthersInLovingJesus   I WANT TO BEGIN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.   RESOURCES USED FOR BOOK OF Jeremiah/Lamentation PODCASTS: “The Wiersbe Bible Commentary: The Complete Old Testament OT in One Volume” “Christ-Centered Exposition: Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah & Lamentations by Steven Smith “Life Application Study Bible” “The Swindoll Study Bible: NLT” by Charles R.

Last week, we told you the story of Hannah Upp, a 23-year-old teacher who mysteriously disappeared in New York City in 2008. Nearly three weeks later, Hannah was found alive in New York Harbor with no memory of where she'd been or what she'd been doing.  Doctors diagnosed her with dissociative fugue, and Hannah eventually returned to her life, hoping it would never happen again.

In this episode we chat to Haytham Hodaly, President and CEO of Wheaton Precious Metals, one of the world's leading precious metals streaming companies.  We discuss Haytham's journey from joining Wheaton over a decade ago to leading the business today, explore how the streaming model is reshaping mine finance, and examine the record-breaking Antamina silver streaming transaction with BHP. We also look at the outlook for precious metals, where Wheaton sees its next growth opportunities, and what investors should be watching over the coming year. KEY TAKEAWAYS Non-dilutive financing model: Streaming provides mining operators with upfront development capital at a fixed production cost with no dilution, debt covenants, or repayment burdens. Monumental portfolio expansion: Wheaton's recent milestone $4.3 billion silver streaming transaction with BHP underscores strong validation and demand for streaming among tier-one global miners. Significant built-in growth: Backed by fully funded and permitted construction projects, Wheaton is on track to increase production by 50%, targeting approximately 1.2 million gold equivalent ounces by 2030. Strong precious metals outlook: Long-term fundamentals remain bullish, supported by gold's safe-haven role against currency weakness and silver's accelerating demand across solar, electric vehicles, and AI data centres. BEST MOMENTS "We provide upfront capital to mining companies in exchange for the right to purchase a percentage of their future metal production at a fixed rate... that provides our counterparties with financing with no dilution, no debt, and no significant covenants or repayment burdens." "What we're trying to position ourselves as is the highest quality, lowest cost, strongest growth portfolio in the industry with the lowest risk profile." "Silver's got those great conductive properties which will also make it incredibly important in the AI expansion... AI data centres typically require almost three times more silver than a typical data center." "Every transaction has to be an accretive transaction... it's not just deploying capital, it's disciplined capital allocation."

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 389, “Plow Up the Hard Ground of Your Hearts!” Kim discusses the word picture in Jeremiah 4 of the hard soil and the thorns. Whether our heart has a fully hard soil area or a hard area of ground, the Lord calls on us to “Plow up the hard ground of [our] hearts!” Even if our heart soil isn't stone hard, that does not mean that we do not have some thorns that are choking out some of our growth and spiritual fruit.    Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 4:1-4, with 3-4 as the focal verses:    3 This is what the Lord says to the people of Judah and Jerusalem: “Plow up the hard ground of your hearts!     Do not waste your good seed among thorns. 4 O people of Judah and Jerusalem,     surrender your pride and power. Change your hearts before the Lord,     or my anger will burn like an unquenchable fire     because of all your sins.     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   Bravely ask the Lord: “What do You want to change in me through this?”   PRAYER:   Lord, break up the hard ground of my heart. Pull out anything that is choking the work You want to do in me. Make my heart soft toward Your voice and ready to receive Your Word. Show me what needs to change, and give me the courage to obey You.

What happens when your business is growing faster than ever—but you're increasingly concerned about what that growth could cost you? In this episode, I sit down with top-producing real estate leader Michael Thornton to explore how he's built a thriving business while protecting his marriage, time with his five children, health, and faith—and why his biggest challenge now isn't achieving more success, but making sure he doesn't lose himself in the process. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Michael left a stable corporate career despite having three young children How he survived nearly running out of money during his first year in real estate Why the people around you sometimes need to believe in you when you can't The boundaries Michael uses to protect his family from the demands of real estate Why his first strategic hire was designed around being present for nights and weekends How he recognizes his personal warning signs of burnout How Michael thinks about growth without falling into the "grind at all costs" mentality Why growing 40% didn't make him any happier How he defines success so that business, marriage, family, and personal well-being grow together Michael's business is having its best year ever—but the question he's wrestling with isn't how to grow faster. It's how to make sure growth doesn't cost him the life he's building it all for. If you've ever wondered how to pursue more without sacrificing what matters most, listen to the full conversation. Time Stamps: 5:30: Why he willingly walked away from a great salary with three kids at home 12:27: The unconventional hire that allowed Michael to grow without sacrificing his family 15:47: His business is having its best year ever—so why isn't he any happier? 20:10: The burnout warning sign that tells Michael it's time to stop pushing 27:43: Why relentless growth can cost you the very things you were working for 29:28: He bet on himself, burned through his savings, and was nearly forced to admit he'd failed 36:55: His business grew 40%—and triggered a completely different fear about success I help high performers get unstuck and out of their own way to unlock their potential.  Apply for Private 1:1 Coaching: If you're successful on paper but feel misaligned, overwhelmed, or stuck at your next level, private coaching may be the fastest path forward.

This week, “MK Confidential” opens on a warm weekday evening in Wheaton, Maryland, an inner suburb just north of D.C. On October 2, 2002, a low, flat, pop sound breaks the evening buzz of errands outside a grocery store. Those nearby think of it as a blown-out tire or a falling pallet of goods. One man drops to the asphalt. James Martin, a fifty-five-year-old husband, father, and Vietnam veteran, bleeds out in a  parking lot. He will not be the last. Megyn Kelly traces the story of the victims, the snipers, and the investigators who will race to end their reign of terror that engulfs greater D.C. Five people in sixteen hours, each shot with a single round of .223, fired from the same rifle. The victims have nothing in common, save for the ground on which they stand, and a clear line of sight to wherever the shooter is lurking. Who would do this, and why? One year after 9/11, the natural thought is foreign terrorism; D.C. is certainly on the lookout. But as the killings continue, and the pressure to stop them mounts, two men are hiding in plain sight. And their motivation is much more straightforward: revenge. This is Episode 1 of The Beltway Snipers story.

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 388, “Come Home to Me Again,” Kim discusses our merciful God and His call to His prodigals to "come home." In today's scripture, the Lord, through Jeremiah, reaches out to the Northern Kingdom. Just as He gave them chance after chance, He also speaks to His modern-day prodigals, encouraging them to "come home."    Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 3:1-20, with 12-13 as the focal verses:    12 Therefore, go and give this message to Israel. This is what the Lord says: “O Israel, my faithless people,     come home to me again, for I am merciful.     I will not be angry with you forever. 13 Only acknowledge your guilt.     Admit that you rebelled against the Lord your God and committed adultery against him     by worshiping idols under every green tree. Confess that you refused to listen to my voice.     I, the Lord, have spoken!     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   Are you sensing the Lord saying to you: “Come home to me again”?   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/encouragingothersinlovingjesus X - https://x.com/eoinlovingjesus?s=21&t=YcRjZQUpvP7FrJmm7Pe1hg INSTAGRAM -  https://www.instagram.com/encouragingothersinlovingjesus/ “Encouraging Others in Loving Jesus” YouTube Channel: Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@EncouragingOthersInLovingJesus   I WANT TO BEGIN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.   RESOURCES USED FOR BOOK OF Jeremiah/Lamentation PODCASTS: “The Wiersbe Bible Commentary: The Complete Old Testament OT in One Volume” “Christ-Centered Exposition: Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah & Lamentations by Steven Smith “Life Application Study Bible” “The Swindoll Study Bible: NLT” by Charles R.

Romans 11:25-36 The Mystery of God: Theology (vv. 25-32) A. Response to Israel1. Dont be ignorant2. Dont be arrogant B. Revelation of Israel1. Promise of their Deliverer (Isaiah 59:20)2. Promise of their deliverance (Isaiah 59:21) C. Reason concerning Israel1. Gods promises are irrevocable2. Gods promises are universal II. The Wisdom of God: Doxology (vv. 33-36) A. The depth of the Wisdom of God B. The height of the Widom of God C. The breadth of the Wisdom of God More to Consider Let us return to the text in Romans 11:25. Paul has stated the hardening is only a partial one, the presence of the believing Jewish remnant throughout history. However, the real content of the mystery (Romans 11:25) is not just that a remnant in the nation would remain, as this concept is already found in the Old Testament. Neither is the mystery the fact that Israel would one day experience a national revival beyond the locus of a small remnant, as this too is clearly taught in the Old Testament. Rather, what qualifies this aspect of Pauline teaching as a mystery is that the inauguration of the eschatological age would involve setting aside the majority of Jews while Gentiles streamed in to enjoy the blessings of salvation and that only when that stream had been exhausted would Israel as a whole experience these blessings. Thomas Fretewll, Why Israel? Understanding Gods Plan for Israel the Nations. Israels corporate stumbling, which is temporary, not permanent, is called a mystery. In Scripture a mystery is not a truth difficult to understand, but a truth previously unrevealed (and therefore unknown) which is now revealed and publicly proclaimed (cf. Eph. 3:9; Col. 1:26; at Matt. 13:1016). John A. Witmer, Romans, in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures, ed. J. F. Walvoord and R. B. Zuck, vol. 2 (Wheaton, IL: Victor Books, 1985), 485. If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence.

This week's episode features Wheaton Precious Metals CEO Haytham Hodaly in conversation with host Adrian Pocobelli on how the streaming model is holding up in today's market. Hodaly discusses the direction he plans to take the company following former CEO Randy Smallwood's departure, including Wheaton's recent streaming deal with BHP. He also explains the differences between royalty and streaming models, why he believes streaming offers distinct advantages, and why Wheaton remains focused on precious metals rather than expanding across the broader metals sector. This week's Spotlight features Hayasa Metals founder and president Dennis Moore and CEO Joel Sutherland, who discuss the company's Vardenis and Urasar projects in Armenia.

The discussion of 5-for-5, which is to say, a five-year window in which to play up to five years of sports, has been rampant at the Division III level in recent weeks, especially since Division II went in on the concept which was pioneered at the Division I level. Plus, we get you ready for Week 1 by talking with Mike McElroy and Cooper Drews at Bethel, and Jesse Scott at Wheaton. And we pay a visit to the Helmet Guy. This edition of the D3football.com Podcast is sponsored by GameStrat, the most reliable & fastest in-game video replay system on the market. Find out more at GameStrat.com. Division II jumped in quickly on adopting 5-for-5. Can Division III do the same? Should Division III do the same? And is 5-for-5 really what it sounds like? Patrick and Greg dive into the process, the survey of athletic directors and conference commissioners and whether such a concept aligns with the Division III mission and philosophy. Additional content: Division III working group survey summary Goals of the Division III working group We are also joined by McElroy and Drews, whose No. 2-ranked Bethel Royals have a bunch of attention on them this year. First off, they’re looking for a name for their offense — can it be as good as Top Gun at UW-River Falls last year? The circumstances are pretty different for Bethel in 2026 compared to 2025, as the offense is returning essentially everyone who ran the ball or caught a pass, so the Royals hope to hit the ground running, or passing, when facing D3football.com preseason No. 1 North Central. Wheaton is hitting the field in Week 1 with a tough game once again, as the Thunder host Mount Union. Jesse Scott tells us how the game came about, what sort of extra lore could be added to the matchup, talks about quarterback Mark Forcucci and how to replace a tough defender in Peter Johanik, who graduated. Also, the Thunder program and alumni had a moment of tragedy this offseason, and Scott talks about the loss of Jalen Shaffer and Philip LoChirco over the summer. Plus, who are the potential Week 1 upsets? Which conferences might be looking to join the HCAC and OAC and declare some sort of cooperative working agreement? That and more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 387, “When Will You Stop Running?” Kim discusses the vivid imagery in Jeremiah 2 that describes the Israelites' unfaithfulness. The Lord asked them: “When will you stop running? When will you stop panting after other gods?” Good questions for us to answer today, don't you think?   Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 2:23-37, with 23-25 as the focal verses:   23 “You say, ‘That's not true!     I haven't worshiped the images of Baal!' But how can you say that?     Go and look in any valley in the land! Face the awful sins you have done.     You are like a restless female camel     desperately searching for a mate. 24 You are like a wild donkey,     sniffing the wind at mating time. Who can restrain her lust?     Those who desire her don't need to search,     for she goes running to them! 25 When will you stop running?     When will you stop panting after other gods? But you say, ‘Save your breath.     I'm in love with these foreign gods,     and I can't stop loving them now!'     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   To which gods have you been running?   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/encouragingothersinlovingjesus X - https://x.com/eoinlovingjesus?s=21&t=YcRjZQUpvP7FrJmm7Pe1hg INSTAGRAM -  https://www.instagram.com/encouragingothersinlovingjesus/ “Encouraging Others in Loving Jesus” YouTube Channel: Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@EncouragingOthersInLovingJesus   I WANT TO BEGIN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.   RESOURCES USED FOR BOOK OF Jeremiah/Lamentation PODCASTS: “The Wiersbe Bible Commentary: The Complete Old Testament OT in One Volume” “Christ-Centered Exposition: Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah & Lamentations by Steven Smith “Life Application Study Bible” “The Swindoll Study Bible: NLT” by Charles R.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”A move for work sounds like a plain life update until the details start stacking up in ways you can't unsee. Tim shares a real, personal testimony that begins with landing in Wheaton “randomly,” learning it's packed with Churches and people of faith, including a strong Catholic community. From there, the story turns into a trail of moments that feel less like chance and more like God's quiet direction, the kind that shows up in ordinary places and refuses to stay ordinary.Tim shares what it feels like when coincidences stop reading like luck and start reading like providence. The heart of the conversation is prayer: rediscovering it, trusting it again, and realizing other people have been praying specific things on your behalf without you even knowing. One of the most striking beats is the timing between a sudden desire to return to Church and a mother's heartfelt prayers the night before, a reminder of how intercessory prayer and family faith can carry someone even when they've drifted.Then comes the simple decision that changes the day: walking past the same coffee shop again and again, feeling the nudge to go in “now,” and meeting Catholic men who become part of the path back to Jesus. If you're searching for encouragement to return to the Catholic faith, rebuild your prayer life, or find Catholic community that feels real and grounded, visit us at Claymore Milites Christi, and join the movement.A clear message: pay attention to your heart, take one small step and invite  God in. The Claymore Battle Plan guides, in three indispensable steps.Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review with the moment in your life that stopped feeling like coincidence.Support the show
