Pornography addiction isn't a willpower problem. It's a brain problem and, understanding the mechanics changes everything about how you fight it. Today, we go deep into the neuroscience: what edging actually does to your reward system, why desensitization and hypo-frontality reshape how your brain processes stress and pleasure, and why getting exactly what you want can leave you more depressed than before you started. We also unpack what "Rat Park" study reveals about addiction and isolation, and why the opposite of sobriety isn't willpower; it's connection. My guest, Sathiya Sam, and I go beyond the behavior to the coping mechanism underneath it, what porn is really substituting for, what predicts who struggles with it, and why quitting cold turkey rarely works without addressing the root. You'll learn the real skills required to overcome it, why a satisfied heart rarely wanders, and how to build an identity that doesn't need to prove itself through control or escape. If you've ever wondered what's actually happening in your brain when you engage — or how to build something stronger in its place — this episode gives you the science and the path forward.

Sissy Goff and David Thomas sit down with Lysa TerKeurst for a meaningful conversation about making peace with what we can't control—especially as parents. Lysa shares what she's learned through raising five children, walking through divorce, and now becoming a grandmother, including the importance of keeping kids talking, releasing the need to control outcomes, and allowing children to experience consequences and build resilience. She reminds parents that their children's mistakes don't define their parenting and encourages families to create a strong sense of belonging, pursue their own growth, and trust God with what they ultimately cannot control.

The racism in the dance competition world doesn't always show up as outright hostility. Sometimes racism looks like a studio owner quietly leaving your name off the audition list. Nicaya Wiley spent seasons two through seven on Dance Moms, and on this episode of Dance Dad with John Corella, she gets honest about what the experience cost her. Growing up as a Black dancer in a predominantly white studio meant rarely receiving corrections in class, questioning whether her body was built for this, and getting body shamed on national television before she was old enough to process what was happening. Her mom is central to everything. She submitted Nicaya directly to casting when the studio tried to quietly leave her off the list. She faced racial slurs in the dressing room, none of which made the air. She came out as gay on the show, which Nicaya calls the boldest thing she has ever witnessed. And she raised a daughter who eventually learned to stop apologizing for the body she was born in. Black dancers and body image in dance training is something the industry still doesn't talk about enough. Nicaya reflects on what changed for her after studying with the late Judith Jamison and what diversity in professional dance feels like now, performing aboard a Norwegian Cruise Line ship with castmates who finally look like her. If you've been wondering about the Dance Moms cast and where they are now, Nicaya Wiley is still dancing, still growing, and still the person her mother raised her to be.

Some mornings don't need more noise, they need one clear truth you can carry. Today we build that truth around a worship classic that's helped me more times than I can count: Vicky Yohe's “Because of Who You Are.” It's a five-minute start to your day, but it's also a small, steady reminder that God hasn't changed, and His names still speak.We slow down and unpack three powerful Old Testament names of God the song points to: Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Nisi, and Jehovah Shalom. You'll hear what each name means, where it shows up in Scripture, and why it matters beyond the page. Jehovah Jireh takes us to Genesis 22 and the God who provides. Jehovah Nisi leads us to Exodus 17 and the God who is our banner and refuge when the fight is bigger than us. Jehovah Shalom brings us to Judges 6 and the God who gives peace even when everything around you argues you shouldn't have it.I also share why these names are more than poetic titles, they are windows into God's character, His strength, His promises, and His care for His people. At the end, I leave you with a short clip of the song and a simple next step: grab the YouTube link in the show notes and listen to the full track (fair warning, it may get stuck in your head). If this encourages you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs peace, and leave a quick review so more people can start their day right.Here is the YouTube link to Because of Who You Are https://youtu.be/C6WexG9uAJI?si=v_qMXREFfJtMigpN Check out this powerful version of Because of Who You Arehttps://youtu.be/vsZWUWDZN3A?si=HYYFOACnIhvIDKb6We would love to hear your comments.

God's people are named “the righteous,” “heirs of righteousness” and even, “the righteousness of God in Christ.” Clearly, righteousness is not just something believers strive to attain; it is something transferred to them supernaturally through new birth. The impartation of righteousness is one of the most amazing gifts God gives to those who love Him. This revelation will definitely build your faith.Ministry website: www.shreveministries.orgComparative religion website: www.thetruelight.netThe “Catholic Project” website: www.toCatholicswithlove.orgVideo channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministriesAll audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.Mail: P.O.

In this week's episode of the Finding God Podcast, we're diving into one of the biggest spiritual shifts happening right now: the rise of being spiritual but not religious. More people than ever are stepping away from traditional church structures not because they're abandoning God, but because they're seeking Him more authentically, more intimately, and more honestly outside of the environments that once shaped their faith.This episode explores the psychology, theology, and lived experiences behind this movement. We talk about church hurt, religious trauma, authenticity, emotional safety, and the desire for a personal relationship with God that isn't filtered through pressure, performance, or tradition. You'll learn why this shift is happening, what people are finding outside the church, and how God continues to meet His people wherever their hearts feel safe enough to open.We also revisit last week's powerful episode on faith deconstruction Am I Losing My Faith or Finding the Real God? and connect how deconstruction often leads people into a deeper, more personal search for God beyond religious institutions.And near the end of the episode, we introduce this week's featured song: “Who You Are” by Unique‑ly Chosen, my spiritual persona and worship expression. This song is a reminder of God's unwavering love and gentle presence, no matter where you are on your spiritual journey.All August podcast songs will be available on Spotify and all major streaming platforms this Friday.

Jesus Christ is our unbreakable lifeline, offering hope, strength, and security in every season of life. Hebrews 6:18-20 reminds us that through Christ we have a steadfast hope anchored in God's presence. Discover why prayer is more than a habit—it's our direct connection to the Savior who never leaves us or turns us away. Life often tempts us to look for comfort in people, achievements, or temporary things when we feel overwhelmed. In today's devotional, Alexis A. Goring reflects on how everyday experiences reveal a deeper truth: while people and circumstances may fail us, Jesus remains our constant source of hope and strength. Through prayer, we can bring every fear, burden, and unanswered question directly to Him. Highlights: Discover what Hebrews 6:18-20 teaches about the hope we have in Christ. Learn why prayer is our spiritual lifeline during difficult seasons. Be encouraged to depend on Jesus instead of people or temporary comforts. Find reassurance that Christ welcomes every fear, doubt, and burden we bring to Him. Understand how Jesus' constant presence gives lasting peace and security.

Goring Bible Reading: “We who have run for our very lives to God have every reason to grab the promised hope with both hands and never let go. It’s an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God where Jesus, running on ahead of us, has taken up his permanent post as high priest for us, in the order of Melchizedek.” - Hebrews 6:18-20 (MSG) A few years ago, while waiting to be seen in a hospital, I stepped into the women’s restroom and saw something that inspired this devotional: a lifeline. It was a red label with white-inked words instructing me to pull the attached red string if I needed help. The sight of this made me think about how Jesus Christ is our lifeline. Earlier this year, I saw a reel via Instagram of a young girl around age 11 or 12. She was captured on camera rushing onto the concert stage before security could catch her and embracing her favorite singer. Prior to this, I could see that the singer was performing at a calm, steady pace as she walked across the stage, holding the microphone near her face. When the young girl rushed onto the stage, the singer wasn’t fazed. She let the young girl wrap her arms around her waist and rest her head on her midsection as she leaned in for a tight hug that obviously meant the world to her. This girl received a 10-second embrace before security reached her and carried her away. When I saw this reel, it spoke volumes to me because it helped me realize several things. I realized that I have been there before because I have had favorite singers over the years—both secular and Christian—and I know what it’s like to cope with their music to the point where it feels like your favorite singer and their songs are your lifeline. When feeling sad or depressed, I would listen to a song that served as catharsis for my feelings, working it out of my system until I felt better. It was obvious to me that the singer in the Instagram reel was that young girl’s lifeline. Her music must have brought this girl through tough times and inspired her heart. Whether feeling happy or sad, this singer’s songs were obviously the soundtrack to her fans’ lives. It was obvious that she loved this musician with all her heart. It was also clear that this singer appreciated her fans because she let this girl hug her for more than a second without pushing her away. Jesus Christ also never pushes us away. And unlike any human—famous singer or not—He is our true lifeline. Only Jesus can save our souls. And He gave us a beautiful way to reach Him as our lifeline. That gift is prayer. I follow a page on Instagram that’s hosted by Ellie Mont. Last year, she said something very profound about prayer being our lifeline. These are a few quotes from her post on Instagram that support my devotional message today: First, she acknowledges that life can be hard for most people. Mont said, “Life often feels like a series of challenges and roadblocks that drain our strength. We try to be strong, to figure it all out on our own, but sometimes it just feels like too much. In those moments, we must remember we do not walk alone.” Second, she reminds us that Jesus walks with us. She also delivers a powerful line about the gift God gave us to reach Him and communicate with Him. Mont said, “Prayer is more than a religious habit or a last resort. It is a lifeline. It is a personal conversation with the God who created you, who sees everything you face, and who cares about every detail of your life. When you cannot handle the weight of your problems, you can bring them to the One who can. God does not ask you to be perfect. He asks you to come to Him just as you are.” Third, Mont reminds us that God wants to hear our hearts no matter how we feel or how messy it seems. She said, “You can be honest with Him. You can tell Him your fears, your doubts, your confusion, and your pain. There is nothing too small or too big for God to handle. He is not bothered by your questions or your tears. He welcomes them. He is a Father who wants to help you and walk with you through every season.” Finally, Mont gives us a word of encouragement for when we feel too discouraged to pray. She said, “Don’t let discouragement silence your voice. Do not let fear steal your hope. Keep praying. Keep trusting. God hears every word, even the ones you cannot say out loud. He sees your heart, and He is working even when you do not see it. You are not alone. You are not forgotten. You are not powerless. You are loved by a God who listens.” In closing, I’d like to say: Be careful not to make a human or anything that is not God your god or your lifeline, because there is only one true God and one way to heaven. The way is Jesus Christ (John 14:6). He is our lifeline. We need to cling to Christ more than we cling to anybody or anything else.

One of the most mysterious figures in the Bible is Melchizedek, King of Salem, who was also a priest of the Most High God (Gen. 14). Many believe he was a “Christophany”: a bodily appearance of the Christ during the Old Testament era. Is “the order of Melchizedek,” mentioned in Psalm 110, prophetic of New Covenant believers—king/priests who will minister to God forever?

How does someone go from skeptical… to building a life around dream interpretation? In this deeply personal episode of the Dream Interpretation Podcast, Sandy interviews Michael Sheridan about the origin of his passion for dreams, how he first began seeing spirits, and the moment he realized dreams were the missing key to everything he had been searching for. Michael shares how a powerful dream interpretation in class completely changed his view of what dreams can do. What started as curiosity turned into a lifelong mission: helping people understand their trauma, gifts, healing path, and life purpose through the language of dreams. This episode also explores: • how dreams reveal the next step on your path • why one dream can be enough to change your life • how trauma can become the setup for your purpose • what it took to leave a conventional career and build a full-time dream practice • how dreams reflect who you are on both sides of the veil • why learning the language of dreams may be one of the most valuable skills you ever develop If you've ever wondered whether your dreams are random… this episode will completely change how you see them.

A bloody ear, thumb, and toe—Why?In the Old Covenant, only the natural offspring of Aaron, the high priest, could be included in the priesthood.

It's easy to say Jesus is our foundation—but what does that actually mean?This week in our "Who You Are" series, Pastor Noah takes a closer look at Jesus' teaching on the wise builder and reveals four pillars of Christ's character that can support every area of our lives. Listen now to discover how encountering Jesus leads to a faith that lasts.
Those who are “of faith” under the New Covenant are referred to as “the children of Abraham” who are “blessed with faithful Abraham." Scripture even declares that Jesus “became a curse” that “the blessing of Abraham” might pass to us. If it was that important to Him, we should deem it important to examine—and claim by faith (Galatians 3:7-14).Ministry website: www.shreveministries.orgComparative religion website: www.thetruelight.netThe “Catholic Project” website: www.toCatholicswithlove.orgVideo channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministriesAll audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.Mail: P.O.

When we are under the influence of the Holy Spirit, our very character changes. From within, we become different. Girl, you’re simply not who you once were. Have you noticed as you change and grow it almost puts a spotlight on our loved ones who are NOT. Maybe someone you love is NOT under the influence of the Holy Spirit and they seem to be stuck in old way … well, they are. When you invite the presence of God into your life HE makes you new. 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” This means if someone DOESN’T belong to Christ, they’re still the same old person living the same life. Their answer is not to try harder – their answer is to surrender their life to Jesus and let the Holy Spirit change them from within! So, here we are as surrendered souls being made new. We’re being reworked from the inside so we’re becoming different, growing different fruit in our lives. Naturally, when the inside has changed, the outside begins to change as well. Today we study the next fruit produced in our life under the influence of the Holy Spirit – GOODNESS. The Greek word translated into goodness has a root word meaning good, upright and excellent. When the suffix is added, it turns into a character trait. The full meaning of this word “goodness” means to have moral excellence, an upright heart, integrity and goodness in action. And where does this goodness come from? Only ONE source – this is God’s goodness flowing through us. This is not self-produced goodness. This isn’t a 10 step program to change your heart and realign your morals. This isn’t being kind, doing nice things, changing your morals – this is God himself expressing HIS character through your surrendered life. This is simply the goodness of God himself dwelling within, transforming you, and then naturally flowing out from you. When you surrender your life to God, HE makes you good. If you’re struggling with a twisted heart or mind, there’s ONE who is in the business of untwisting – that’s the work of the Holy Spirit. And every single one of us have gotten a little twisted. Life in this world has a way of doing that. Human nature is a twisting. We simply can’t live well without God’s influence and direction. This is NEVER a matter of you being a better person than someone else – this is always a matter of God’s almighty work within you. Without God, you would be one twisted girl living in utter darkness – and that’s just the humbling truth. The Holy Spirit changes our character to GOODNESS. He aligns our morals with God’s. He teaches us to do what is right even when no one is watching. He grows our desires in the direction of integrity. We don’t do that ourselves. Girl, if there’s goodness in you, that’s a work of God, not of you! This fruit of goodness is a growing of WHO YOU ARE. It’s an external proof of the internal transformation happening. God is GOOD. His power is good. His ways are good. His plans are good. And when your soul is surrendered to Him as Lord and He is in control of your life, then He is living inside of you, making you good. It starts with Him and flows into you. This isn’t an act of willpower on your part; this is an act of surrender. This isn’t an achievement; this is a transformation. Goodness is the overflow of abiding in Christ. The fruit isn’t something you force—it is something God grows as you remain connected to Him. Goodness starts with God. Goodness flows into you. Goodness grows through you. Goodness blesses everyone around you. If you take GOD out of GOODNESS, you are left with o-ness. If you’re trying to make yourself be good without the power of the Holy Spirit working in you, you may achieve good behavior for a while, but you’ll never produce godly goodness. Only God can produce God’s character. GOODNESS IS GOD’S CHARACTER. We try to be good without God and we just end up exhausting ourselves trying to become by effort – but this goodness is only produced through surrender to God. Do you want to be better? SURRENDER! Then the fruit of goodness will naturally grow! Jesus shows us what the goodness of God within looks like in action. Acts 10:38 puts it simply, “Jesus went around doing good.” The character of goodness always produces goodness in action. The more the Holy Spirit works his goodness in you, the more your actions align to those of Jesus. Girl, you’re going to be going around DOING GOOD! What if your entire life became about going around just doing good! You want to represent Jesus to this world – go around doing good! Let God’s goodness flow through you onto everyone you encounter! Ephesians 2:10 says we’re created to do the good things God planned for us. Doing good things doesn’t save us – But the goodness of God growing in us naturally has us going around doing good things! Think about that – do you notice that in your own journey with God? The more you grow in Jesus – the more you learn and follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit – the more he has you going around doing good things! How radically cool is that? THAT’S THE FRUIT OF GOODNESS GROWING IN YOUR LIFE! So today, don’t leave our time together thinking, “I need to try harder to be good.” Leave thinking, “I need to stay closer to God.” Fruit never grows because the branch strains harder—it grows because it stays connected to the vine. The closer you live to Jesus, the more His goodness becomes your goodness. Before you know it, you’ll find yourself speaking with more integrity, loving more deeply, giving more generously, forgiving more freely, serving more joyfully, and doing good almost without thinking about it. That’s the Holy Spirit transforming your character. Girl, this world doesn’t just need more nice people. It needs more people so surrendered to Jesus that His goodness overflows into every conversation, every decision, every relationship, and every ordinary day. So stay surrendered. Stay connected. Stay under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Then go around doing good, because everywhere the goodness of God goes, darkness loses ground and people catch a glimpse of Jesus. And really that’s what it’s all about – show the world JESUS! Every act of goodness points beyond us. Every kind word, every generous act, every choice of integrity, every quiet sacrifice becomes another opportunity for someone to catch a glimpse of Jesus. So let His goodness grow in you, flow through you, and reveal Him to the world.

In our study of the fruits of the Spirit, we’re understanding this isn’t a list of attributes to strive for, it’s not a checklist for being a follower of Jesus, it’s the tangible results that grow in our lives when we’re connected to God. FRUITS of the Spirit. Fruit grows. Fruit is the natural outcome of a healthy tree. The Holy Spirit is God’s presence living within us, and that Spirit changes our heart. And very naturally without force, when our heart changes, our behavior changes. We start seeing things and people differently. We start responding differently. Our priorities shift. And even our very character is changed. With the Holy Spirit, we naturally begin to grow in love, in joy, in peace and in patience. Now the next literal change we can see as the Holy Spirit works to change our hearts, we grow in KINDNESS. Galatians 5:23, “The Holy Spirit produce this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness …” The Greek word translated into kindness is chrēstotēs. This word means being a blessing wherever you go. It is more than just a smile, it is an intentional act that benefits others. This is a disposition, meaning WHO YOU ARE. Who you are is blessed and what you do is be a blessing – that is the true meaning of kindness as a fruit of the Spirit. Kindness is a focus on others that continually asks, “How can I help? How can I lift their burden? How can I bless?” Kindness takes the focus off self and sees the needs of others. When kindness sees a need, it springs into action – not for how it makes them look, but for how it makes others feel. Acts of kindness reveal the kindness of our God. Did you know scripture calls God KIND? Psalm 145: 13-20, listen to this description of our God – “The LORD always keeps his promises; he is gracious in all he does. The LORD helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads. The eyes of all look to you in hope; you give them their food as they need it. When you open your hand, you satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing. The LORD is righteous in everything he does; he is filled with KINDNESS. The LORD is close to all who call on him, yes, to all who call on him in truth. He grants the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cries for help and rescues them. The LORD protects all those who love him …” Y’all, that’s OUR GOD! He is so genuinely KIND. He blesses us beyond measure. As a recipient of his kindness in the Holy Spirit, we then begin to grow that same kindness from within. It becomes who we are. We are blessed to be a blessing. Everywhere Jesus went, kindness followed. Think about it. He touched lepers when no one was willing to even stand next to them. As a woman caught in adultery was about to be stoned to death, he drew a line in the sand and defended her. He stood in a hungry crowd of thousands and decided he would feed them their next meal. As he hung on the cross dying the most painful death imaginable, he forgave. Kindness wasn’t something Jesus occasionally did – it was who he was. And we’re called to be more and more like Jesus. We can’t be like Jesus without being KIND. Kindness moves. Kindness responds. Kindness steps right into the messy need and gets their hands dirty. As kindness grows within us through the work of the Holy Spirit, we will no longer be able to just walk by anymore because we’re too busy. THAT’S CHANGING. The fruit of kindness changes what we see. Instead of seeing interruptions, we see opportunities. Instead of seeing differences, we see hurting people who God loves. Instead of seeing ourselves as better, we see ourselves as a vessel that carries a blessing, and that blessing is to be poured out! Imagine three people walk into a room where someone is hurting. The first person says, “I’m praying for you.” That’s compassion. The second person says, “God is with you in this.” That may be goodness. The third person says, “I brought dinner. I’ll watch your kids. I’ll mow your yard. I’ll sit with you.” That’s chrēstotēs KINDNESS. Kindness doesn’t just merely notice pain. Kindness enters it. In this world, our hearts naturally become impatient and critical. Life can make us harsh and suspicious. We can begin building our walls and our judgments. But the Holy Spirit starts tearing down those walls. The work of God’s presence living within us softens our hearts again. Here’s the thing, when you know you have been overwhelmed by totally undeserved kindness from God himself, then you can’t help but turn around and show undeserved kindness to others. If you’re amazed by the sheer kindness of Jesus, then you can’t remain indifferent toward people. Kindness changes who you are! Kindness at work within you has no limits. The Holy Spirit wants to grow kindness is you that changes absolutely everything you do. Suddenly you’ll notice the way you talk is kind. The way you drive is kind. The way you parent is kind. The way you lead is kind. They way you follow is kind. Kindness will permeate everything about you and everything you do. God’s kindness toward us becomes God’s kindness through us. It’s one of the clearest proofs that Jesus is changing your heart! As you walk with Jesus and grow in his Spirit, have you noticed yourself changing? It hasn’t been an overnight change, but a gradual growth. You don’t see things the way you used to. You can’t just walk by what you used to walk by. You’re moved by the needs of people now. You hurt when they hurt. You’re no longer serving from a self-seeking position, but a heart that has been transformed by the love of Christ. His Spirit is teaching you to love what He loves, to value what He values, and guess what that is … PEOPLE. God loves his people. God values his people. Now his Spirit teaches us to do the same. What once seemed like an interruption now becomes an opportunity to show compassion. What once felt like a burden now becomes a privilege to carry. This is the evidence of spiritual maturity—not perfection, but transformation. As God continues His work in you, your life begins to reflect His kindness, His patience, His mercy, and His grace. The more you abide in Him, the more His character is formed in you. Others may not notice every small change, but over time they begin to see Jesus in the way you speak, the way you forgive, the way you serve, and the way you love. Keep walking with Him. He is faithfully shaping you into the person He created you to be.

Who You Are vs. Whose You AreWho are you... really?When someone asks you to describe yourself, where does your mind go? Your career? Your accomplishments? Your failures? Your roles? Or do you begin with the One you belong to?In this episode, we unpack the life-changing difference between knowing who you are and remembering Whose you are. Our identity was never meant to be built on what we do, what we have, or what others think of us. It is rooted in our relationship with our Good Father.Together, we'll explore:Why Jesus taught His disciples to pray, "Our Father..." before anything else.How sonship changes the way we face life's storms.Why your circumstances don't determine your identity.The danger of allowing problems to become so magnified that they blind us to God's presence.How Hagar's story reminds us that God often opens our eyes to the provision that was there all along.Why obedience often requires courage before clarity.How God turns empty nets into overflowing ones when we trust Him.If your life feels uncertain, your identity feels shaken, or you're trying to navigate a difficult season, this conversation is an invitation to lift your eyes from your circumstances and fix them on the Father who has never lost sight of you.Because when you truly understand Whose you are, everything about who you are begins to change.Key Scriptures:Luke 11:1-4John 1:12Genesis 21:14-19Romans 8:28John 21"You don't have to do anything on your own. Our Father equips, encourages, and walks with His children every step of the way."
Who is the hardest person for you to love?This week in our "Who You Are" series, Pastor Bob unpacks one of Jesus' most challenging commands: love your enemies. Listen now to discover how choosing prayer over bitterness and mercy over retaliation helps us become more like Jesus.
How can New Jerusalem (“Jerusalem above”) be “the mother of us all” (all born again believers)? Why is the contrast between heavenly Jerusalem and earthly Jerusalem compared to Sarah and Hagar in the epistle to the Galatians? And why did the apostle Paul name God's New Covenant people “children of the freewoman”?

No one can share God's glory, right? Actually, the exact opposite is true. God's people are even named “partakers of the glory” and “the house of His glory”! Before Jesus went to the cross, He prayed, “Father, the glory you gave Me, I have given them.” So, this has already been established by a divine decree!

“The Circumcision” is a name given to God's New Covenant offspring in Philippians 3:3. Are we the spiritual fulfillment of the natural, Old Covenant rite of circumcision given to Abraham.

Belonging is difficult to define; it's a big concept, and there are plenty of nuanced layers and levels and lenses to consider. Though there will always be more to say, on the surface, I think of belonging as acceptance, inclusion, the feeling of being at home. If I dig a little deeper, I find I long to belong because, when I do, my most authentic self is safe and secure. And if I dig deeper still, I come to see the ways belonging and identity are very much intertwined. It seems to me that belonging not only helps to shape my identity; it is a part of it. And if belonging is a part of who I am, then I wonder if belonging isn't somewhere "out there," but always right here, deep down within. While belonging is not something tangible we hold in our hands, maybe it is still something we possess; something we take with us everywhere we go. Often, though, it is something I forget. Even though belonging is my birthright, I live like I've left it behind. I swerve and scramble, trying to fit in, impress, compete, succeed. I grow anxious and frazzled, bitter and distressed, searching and grasping for something that's already mine. Maybe you can relate? What does it mean to take our belonging with us? To remember the God-given reality of who we already are—beloved and beheld by God? Listen in.

This week in our collection called "Who You Are," Pastor Todd walks us through a powerful moment where Simon Peter leaves behind his plans, his livelihood, and his comfort to follow Jesus. Listen now to hear how faith often means obeying when it doesn't make sense, trusting God's power when our efforts have failed, and surrendering everything to follow Him.

The world is obsessed with where you are going and what you can achieve. The world wants your identity to be found in where you work, how much you make, or what your title is. But God has a different plan. The truth is that our identity is not something we earn; it's something we receive. This message is a great reminder for all of us in this high-pressure world that we live in.

What does it really mean to belong — not just to a team or an organisation, but to yourself?In this episode, hosts Vanessa Iloste and Vanessa Teo sit down with Judy Liu, Founder of The Outlier Mind, ICF Professional Certified Coach, Organisational Psychologist, and author of the newly published Beyond Belonging: Finding Home in Who You Are. After more than a decade building the Learning and Development function at Hays across Asia, Judy made a bold leap into entrepreneurship — and has never looked back.Judy's career path is anything but conventional. Starting with a double degree in Law and Psychology, she moved through recruitment, L&D leadership, and eventually into coaching and organisational psychology — not through a master plan, but by following a thread that only became visible in hindsight. In this conversation, she reflects on what it takes to reinvent yourself multiple times within one organisation, what finally pushed her to go out on her own, and why she believes the most powerful career transitions are not just about changing roles, but about coming home to who you really are.We explore the psychology behind career change — the fears, the hesitations, and the stories we tell ourselves that keep us stuck. Judy shares why she champions the art of slowing down in a world that celebrates relentless pace, and what it means to lead in genuine alignment with your values rather than the expectations of others. Drawing on her experience across Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, and China, she also unpacks how cultural context shapes the way people experience belonging — and what organisations often get wrong when they try to build it.Whether you are contemplating a career leap, leading a team through uncertainty, or simply trying to find your footing in a rapidly changing world of work, this episode offers both provocation and permission to embrace your own weird and wonderful self.Key themes: career reinvention, authentic leadership, organisational psychology, the future of work, belonging, cross-cultural leadership, entrepreneurship Connect with us on LinkedIn: · Vanessa Iloste (Host)· Vanessa Teo (Host) · Aaron Wu (Producer)

Pearl Jam's 2008 tour was a short, but memorable run in between album releases that took them along the entirety of the U.S. East Coast. After shows at Bonnaroo, Madison Square Garden and Mansfield among many more, they finished the run by playing a benefit show at the famed Beacon Theater in New York City. The band helped raise $3 million for the Robin Hood Foundation to fight poverty within the city limits. 2,500 lucky fans were able to witness what happened on this night, help raise funds and awareness while getting a great show out of it. 2008 has a few major storylines for the band that mostly center around songs returning from long absences. This was the first time in 13 years that they brought W.M.A. to the table as a full performance, the first time in the Matt Cameron era that Who You Are was played, and it was the debut year for Lost Dog opening track, All Night. All three of these songs help define the time period, and if you happened to witness the band in New York that year, these songs were accompanied live by three local backing singers. We'll go into depth on how these songs benefitted from a different feel for the band at the time, and how the singers blended in soul with rock 'n' roll to create memorable performances. Especially of Harvest Moon. We'll also talk about Randy's first year getting a chance to see a show and how that changed the trajectory of... his life? And on Javi's side, he'll go into depth on what displeases him about the sound in this era and why he thinks it holds the band back from being able to expand their pallet.

Are you trying to bear up the burden of proof? This weekend Pastor Steve Andres continued our MOSES series with a message about identity.Exodus 3:14God replied to Moses, “I AM who I AM. Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.”Moses has a confusing upbringing, born from an oppressed people, but raised in privilege. In a moment of recklessness, he kills a man who is mistreating his fellow Hebrews, and he is forced to flee Egypt.1) Your behavior follows your sense of identity.Our actions can be traced back to our sense of who we are, for better and for worse. Our lives are an outworking of our beliefs about ourselves.2) What makes you awkward in one season might make you relevant in the next.Moses was not like any other Hebrew, which was isolating. He was trained in the most advanced society of the day, and he was uniquely prepared to lead a nation. From the place of your deepest wound will come your most significant gift to others.Moses spent forty years learning from the best of Egypt, then he spent the next forty years learning humility and faithfulness in the desert.3) An encounter with God raises questions before it offers answers.When God appeared to Moses, it was unsettling, and it provoked even more questions about his identity and adequacy. Finding WHO GOD IS is the surest way to understand WHO YOU ARE.Moses asks God, “Who am I?” The answer Moses gets is about who God is.4) You are the person that God says you are.God tells us who we are, but the miracle is that he commits to prove it for us. Our identity in Christ is a work of God's grace from start to finish!2 Corinthians 5:17This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
