I should have been the one to fill your podcast with light! Welcome back to the podcast! Today, we're going to be talking about Devil May Cry, the first game in the DMC series that defined a genre in a way. Character action games of today all have a bit of DNA (the D stands for “Devil” here, presumably) from this game in them, whether that's in level design, unlockable moves/combos or just the focus on stylish combat, usually with an accompanying rating system, and so going back to see how they were all implemented in the first DMC game was quite an experience. An experience made all the more unexpected by how well the first game manages all these systems. Truly, the level of competency on display here for what is more or less the first try is impressive and makes me question whether this game really was designed that well, or if the genre hasn't pushed that far forward in the last twenty years. Presentation and questionable voice acting aside, even the game's visual style with it's gothic architecture, quietly grotesque enemy design, and the anime sword biker detective himself, Dante, has gone down as nothing short of iconic in the world of games. We're going to be talking about the strength in simplicity in a combat system, the elements of old-style design that do manage to hold this game back on a modern playthrough, and how we think that castles are…pretty cool. Thank you for joining us again this week. We may have played the remastered version of this game, but it did still feel like the proverbial blast from the past to pick it up again after nearly two decades. How do you feel the game holds up? Is this game your favorite in the series, or was it dethroned by one of its many sequels? Do you want to make some kind of meme about our podcast featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series? Let us know in the comments, or over on our Discord server where we talk about the games and take suggestions. Next time, we're going to be taking on another game that's been remastered in the form of Super Mario 3D World (+ Bowser's Fury), the Switch port of the Wii U Mario game that presumably very few people ended up actually playing in its original incarnation. We hope you'll check that one out too.

Have you ever thought about worship being part of your wellness? That is what Amber Harris challenges us to do in this week's episode of the Wholly a Woman podcast. Amber curates the Instagram account @worship.in.wellness and she helps us see how wellness can be an act of worship. When we talk about wellness, we are not just talking about physical fitness. We are talking about mental, physical, and spiritual health. Amber asks us to think not just about self-care, but about soul-care. She shares some strategies she uses to care for her whole self that you can try too. My mission at NFP Pharmacist is to empower women to care for and love the bodies God gave them. Amber shares that she sees us celebrating our whole womanhood by loving and appreciating the bodies God gave us. I really appreciated this conversation and Amber's perspective on worship in wellness.Here are the take-aways from this week's episode:-There is a gap between self-care and soul-care-Self-care is temporary, while soul-care is caring for your overall eternal being-There really is no separation between mental, physical, and spiritual health-Consider an end-of-week check-in to review those things that brought you joy (mental health deposits) and those things that suck the joy from you (mental health withdrawals)-Worship is an activity of the heart and God cares about our heart appearance-Be honest with yourself about why you're working out-It's not about glorifying your body, it's about glorifying God with your body-Celebrate your whole womanhood by loving and appreciating the body God gave you. Are you thankful for the body you have right now?Tag Amber (@worship.in.wellness) and me (@nfppharmacist) on Instagram and let us know YOUR take-aways!!Bible verses mentioned: 1 Cor. 6:19-20; Romans 12:1Connect with Amber:IG: @worship.in.wellnessFB group: Worship in Wellness with AmberWebsite: worshipinwellnesswithamber.com -> download monthly habit trackerAccess my FREE “Know Your Body with Natural Family Planning” virtual workshop ANY TIME - click on the button on my homepage at www.nfppharmacist.com What did you think?

Aim to have a constant flow of God in every aspect of your life.

“You can have great sex until the day you die.” Yep, we are going there this week, and I am so thankful to Susan Bratton for guiding us. Intimacy expert to millions, best-selling author, and content creator, Susan shows you how to transform having sex into making love. Having great sex is so much more than just physical skill, and Susan and I really dive into how you can communicate with your spouse about intimacy and desire so you both enjoy your sexual experiences even more.It's important for men and women to understand how their own body and sexuality works and how their partner's body and sexuality works. Men are run by testosterone and are on a 24-hour cycle. Women are run by estrogen and are on a 28-day cycle. Men were designed to be ready at the moment women are ready. Our anatomy works differently, but the key is blood-flow. Susan shares such great advice for men to better understand women's sexual experience, and the key is - slow down, turn around and come back to us and bring us with you.Here are more take-aways:-Having an orgasm during intercourse is a learnable skill-Your sexual development can always be improving (just like your personal development)-Intimacy is a heart connection at the body, mind, and spirit level-Sexual education includes three components: 1) love-making techniques, 2) communication techniques, and 3) sexual health-Sexuality is ageless. You can have great sex until the day you die.-Sex is not just for procreation. It is also for connection, co-regulation, joy, and fun-It's important for men and women to understand how their own body and sexuality works and how their partner's body and sexuality works. Women need foreplay. We need men to come back to us and take time to bring us to their level.-Libido has to do with hormone regulation. Desire is related to your body image and emotions. Arousal describes the physical anatomy and physiology. Take a look at Susan's colored images of the vulva and clitoral anatomy to better understand your female body (see link below)-You need to believe you WILL get better and better as a couple-Desire is made of two parts: it is safety and security AND it is novelty and variety. You can learn together and play together. Couples that play together, stay together. -Susan recommends thinking about the time of conception as all the joyful opportunities to improve together over time. Focus on desire - safety and variety - as part of conception. -We need to have compassion for ourselves and our partners. -Express your needs to your spouse in real time. Feedback is NOT failure. Feedback is what you both need to WIN. You are on the same team!Tag Susan (@susanbratton) and me (@nfppharmacist) on Instagram and let us know YOUR take-aways!!→ start here: the sexual soulmate pact: https://sexualsoulmatepact.com/ Wholly a Woman episode 46: Know your female body - using anatomically correct terms: https://www.spreaker.com/user/nfppharmacist/episode-46-know-your-female-body-using-a Susan's video library: https://betterlover.com/ Vulva anatomy image: https://nfppharmacist.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Vulva-Colored-susan-bratton-scaled.jpgClitoral anatomy image: https://nfppharmacist.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Clitoral-Anatomy-Colored-susan-bratton.jpg Learn the soulmate embrace: https://soulmateembrace.com/ Access my FREE “Know Your Body with Natural Family Planning” virtual workshop ANY TIME - go to https://emily.quickconvert.io/ What did you think?

That is the power author and speaker Christian de la Huerta talks about in this week's episode of the Wholly a Woman podcast. Listen in to our conversation and learn to awaken the soul of power.Take-aways:-We want power, but we are afraid of it. How can we learn to step into our interpersonal power?-We can step into power without being hierarchical, without hurting others-Women hold an innate capacity to create life, to bring forth new life - women hold strength within us-Steps to awaken the soul of power: 1) recognize soulful power is inherent to each of us - no one can give or take it away, 2) self-observation - pay attention to your inner nature, ask yourself why you do the things you do, and 3) choose to stop giving your power away-Spiritual power is humble, it doesn't have a self-serving agenda like worldly power-To be fearless does not mean we do not feel fear, it means we feel fear and we don't let it hold us back-Start awakening your own power by stretching outside your comfort zone-We need you, and we need you FULLY in your powerTag Christian (@christiandlh) and me (@nfppharmacist) on Instagram and let us know YOUR take-aways!!Order Christian's book, “Awakening the Soul of Power,” and/or contact Christian: www.soulfulpower.comAccess my FREE “Know Your Body with Natural Family Planning” virtual workshop ANY TIME - go to https://emily.quickconvert.io/ What did you think?

In 2017, Dr. Mark Yazer appeared on this podcast to discuss the burgeoning interest in “Low-titer Group O Whole Blood (LTOWB)” for massive transfusions, particularly in trauma settings. Since then, more data and experience are available to guide the use of whole blood for trauma transfusion. Dr. Yazer updates us on the latest whole blood and incompatible plasma transfusion data, and clears up once and for all the "clear fluids" debate! Plus, there's some hockey trash talk...

May 30, 2021- Holy Trinity Sunday Pastor Kevin Kritzer Isiah 6:1-8 6 In the year King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a high and lofty throne. The bottom of his robe filled the temple. 2 Angels [a] were standing above him. Each had six wings: With two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3 They called to each other and said, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Armies! The whole earth is filled with his glory.” 4 Their voices shook the foundations of the doorposts, and the temple filled with smoke. 5 So I said, “Oh, no! I'm doomed. Every word that passes through my lips is sinful. I live among people with sinful lips. I have seen the king, the Lord of Armies!” 6 Then one of the angels flew to me. In his hand was a burning coal that he had taken from the altar with tongs. 7 He touched my mouth with it and said, “This has touched your lips. Your guilt has been taken away, and your sin has been forgiven.” 8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom will I send? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me!” http://www.bethanylutheran.org http://www.facebook.com/Bethany.Long.Beach www.youtube.com/c/BethanyLutheranLongBeach

So today I want to talk to you about signs and symptoms of feeling unbalanced or being unbalanced. And we're going to get into this whole word of balance because I think it's really important.

If you have been feeling unbalanced in some areas of your life, and you've been feeling like you're just stuck and you can't seem to get out of this funk, that's exactly what my coaching package will help you with. We will go through the big idea framework together, and we will come up with an action plan that will allow you to do some small things that equal big results. So jump over into my email actually, instead of my email, jump over to my website. It's at Angie, Tony rogers.com and you can access my coaching menu there. All right. So let's get into today's episode. Okay. We're going to talk about this almost dreaded thing called because I think sometimes it just seems so unattainable. So let's first talk about some signs and symptoms that you might be in a place where you feel unbalanced in some areas of your life. So it can look like burnout or feel like burnout. It can feel like you are constantly busy and you are not really having time to breathe or to do things that you feel like you need to do. It could be that you get to the end of the day. And you're like, what in the world did I even do today? What did I even accomplish? It can be feeling like you're constantly tired and you just can't get a break or you can't get rested. You can't get to a place where you're feeling any peace at all. It could result in physical manifestations like headaches or upset stomach. A lot of times when we're stressed out or when things are going in a way that we're not really able to take care of ourselves because we are just in such an unbalanced place. In some area of our life, we start to have a lot of gastro issues which would be belly or you know, either nausea or vomiting or sometimes diarrhea or constipation. A lot of times our physical manifestations of stress show up as headaches or stomach issues. So bowel problems fatigue, energy loss, those are all things that could be happening. Just a sense of overwhelm, a sense of just feeling stress could be that you're having trouble remembering what it was that you needed to do on your to-do list. Maybe your to-do list is like a mountain that you can not see the top of, or that you can never even get to the bottom of. And so you're just standing in the middle of this mountain, hanging on for dear life, wishing or hoping that you could either start over and get to the bottom or, and go home or get to the top and finally breathe in the air and look at the view. But it's just that you're stuck. Okay. So those are some of the symptoms. So let's talk about my seven steps that we are going to go through to find a sense of balance. Okay. So the first one, well here's what, whatever we're going to do, we're going to spell out the word balance and I have a word and an action for each of those letters. So B well, let's start with balance. So the number one, one thing that we're going to do is you have to define it. There are so many people that say, Oh, I'm just not balanced, or I don't feel right. Or things are not going well, or I'm not meeting all my expectations. I'm never accomplishing anything. But when you talk to them, they're like not, they're not even in a place where they can even define, well, what would it look like to be balanced? What does it feel like? So think about each of our areas of our life pie, which we're talking about, physical, financial, professional, relational, et cetera, and think about, okay, if you felt like you were spending enough energy and time there and feeling accomplished in those areas, what would it feel like? What does it look like? You've got to know what the goal is in order to know that you're meeting the expectations or meeting that balance. So it's so super important to define what balance looks like to you. I hate to break it to you, sisters, but balance is not like a perfect circle where everything is. Even in fact, if you take the Holy made life short assessment, which can be accessed on my website, Andy, to nanny rogers.com, you will see that there are going to be areas in our life pie, where we are scoring lower than other areas. And that's okay for the season that we, or you may be in. In fact, let me read you a scripture. It is Ecclesiastes three, one eight for everything. There's a season and a time for every matter, under heaven at time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant in a time to pluck up. What's planted a time to kill and a time to heal a time to break down a time, to build up a time, to weep a time, to laugh, a time to mourn a time to dance, a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together at a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing. So this scripture reminds me that there are seasons for everything. So you have to understand that even if your scores are uneven or unbalanced, quote unquote, I'm doing air quotes, then you still might be in a season where that might be okay. You just have to give yourself permission to be okay with that. And to still give yourself credit for meeting the expectations. Here's a great example. Let's say you've got a big project at work that you're working on. Well, maybe you have to work those 10 or 12 or 14 hours a day during the season where this project is, maybe that portion of your life pie needs more time for you right now. So, so the key is to be intentional about the other areas of your life, you know, with your relationships, making sure you communicate, Hey family, this is a project that I'm going to be working on during this season. And this is what it's going to require of me. And here's what I need from you to support me in this. Here's what I need for you to remind me when I'm falling short of certain things. Maybe I'm not getting enough sleep well, you've got to balance some of that. You can't go, you know, every single night for three weeks with zero hours of sleep. So you've got to have somebody there that's going to help hold you accountable to that as well as yourself, but also having that intentional conversation about, Hey, it's gonna be more energy and time and focus in my professional piece of the pie right now during this season. And then once that season's over, we will refocus and reallocate some time to maybe the relationship piece of a pie. Okay? So that's an example of how we are in seasons. We are always looking to be in balance based on the season and the needs that we have for that particular time. The other thing about balance and making sure that you add this to the definition is that it is on going, it's ongoing. You have to make peace with the fact that you are going to have pieces of your life pie that require more time than others at different times in your life. And you have to know that being balanced and creating that balance is based on a definition that you can actually maintain and meet expectations from. And you're always working on it. You're always assessing it. You're always trying to create that balance. You're being intentional about that. So it's ongoing. You have to know where you feel and find joy. The fruits of the spirit include joy. So you have to make sure that you are finding joy somewhere, because the more places that even if they're small, that you can identify that you find joy from that will help keep the levels of burnout and stress and overwhelm down because you're still able to find that joy. All right. So we talked about it flexing. That means that it's, it's gonna be, it's going to wax and wane, you know, with your seasons. Okay. So that's B that's balanced. The second one is a, and we're going to assess and acknowledge. So what this means is that you've in order for you to kinda know what's going on, you've got to pinpoint the feelings and emotions and, and mindset that you have around what's going on right now in your life with your life pine, with all of these different pieces of your pie. You've got to assess what that looks like. You've got to make sure that the definitions that you, you created up and be in the balance, the definition still makes sense for today because today's definition of what balance looks like might be different than yesterday or three months ago or three years ago, or before you had kids, or before you had your fourth kid, or before you took this new job before you quit your job before your kid went to college, whatever. Okay. So you've got to have that assessment, and then you've got to acknowledge those places that you are identifying that need a little bit of work and then be intentional about creating that plan to do a little bit more in that area. Okay. The third is L which is left. There are so many, especially when you're in a place of unbalanced, there's so many, or when you perceive you're unbalanced, I guess there are so many times I talk to ladies and they say, I don't remember the last time that I actually laughed. And this goes into kind of restoring that joy again as well, but laugh, loosen up. Don't hold yourself to such a standard that a perfectionist couldn't even meet the standard. It's okay. A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but just adjust. Wait is in his delight. That's Proverbs 11 one. So loosen up a little bit and understand that it's okay to laugh. It's okay to have fun. It's okay to purposefully schedule something in your day that, you know, you're going to find that fun and that joy and that laughter in you know, there's a lot of studies that say, laughter in of itself, adds years to your life because it reduces stress. It releases endorphins. There's a physiological response to smiling and laughing. I remember one of it was Bryson my youngest, where when he would get hurt, I would say, laugh it out, laugh it out because it actually physiologically releases endorphins and your body kind of switches to dealing with those pain feelings that are happening to the endorphins that are a more powerful hormone that gets released. So definitely adding laughter to your day is something that can help overall. Okay. The fourth step is going to be a, and that is going to be a line. Now I found this very interesting and I don't know why I got on this tangent, but I started thinking about tires being balanced and alignment for your car. And I thought, okay, which one comes before or after the other? And I just started looking it up and I just found it pretty interesting. So first of all, let's define a line. So online means to get a person place or thing to put into a straight line, or it means to commit yourself to being either for, or against something. It means to bring into alignment, you know you remember your third grade teacher telling you, you can't use the word in the definition. Well, when you read definitions online or wherever you're reading from Wikipedia or wherever, it always has the word in the definition somewhere let's see. It means to put into the exact correct place often in relation to something else or to arrange an Alliance or to be parallel. Okay. So I think about that in two ways, one alignment with the word of truth in the Bible. Number two, again, I just started thinking about how a car needs their tires balanced and needs the alignment done routinely in order to keep it safe. It's self safe, it keep it from being destroyed on the road. So let's talk a little bit about this because I found some parallel, no Palm words information. So you know, drive, meaning where's the way at your car and it's not just, you know, on paint chips and scratches and that kind of thing. It can where the entire inner system of your car to where your entire car stops running or is so damaged that you can't drive it. Well, I think of that as life, life wears away at us, right? If we're the car life, where's the way it is sometimes, especially if we're not being intentional about creating this quote unquote balance that is only yours, okay? It's not mine, it's yours and yours is not mine your balance. If we don't get intentional about this, we start to wear away and we start to friction starts to tear at us and we start to get worn and we start to get shaky and we start to vibrate and on different levels. And, and we're just not we're not balanced. We're not able to meet our tires on the road in a way that helps us be suspended correctly. The tires themselves help to blunt the worst part of the impact when you go over potholes bumps and other things in the road. But these impacts jar the suspension components. If your wheels are out of alignment, which then starts to damage all the underpinnings of the car. Now I am by no means on mechanic, but I just found this somewhat parallel to what it taught It, what, what I'm talking about today. It just reminded me of this. So I thought it might be helpful just to kind of share through that. Okay. So it's recommended to rotate your tires regularly so that they keep even where I thought that was very intuitive. We have to continually SS, as I talked about what our definition of balances and whether or not we are in with the truth, with the definition and with our activities, with our intention ality, because otherwise we start to wear unevenly, our relationships get worse, or we start performing poorly on our job. If we are not regularly rotating our tires or balancing our tires, okay. Balancing our life, coming up with that definition, assessing that on an ongoing basis, then we start to experience uneven wear and tear in our lives. Okay. I thought that that was kind of a parallel. And it's not just what we see. It's the inside stuff that starts to stuff that we can't see that starts to make the car shake excessively or have poor vibrations to the point where again, the car is not able to run as it should. So sometimes our lack of focus on what expectations we're holding for ourselves or what definition we're using and constantly beating ourselves up that we're not meeting it. Sometimes those things go unnoticed until we start to fall apart or still until pieces of our pie start to fall away or start to fall apart. So it's important to regularly on an ongoing basis, assess what needs to happen in our lives to help us feel and create and meet these definitions of those. Yeah. Okay. Another thing with alignment was that it can help the tires, the things that meet the road, the, when the rubber hits the road, it helps them perform properly longer. It helps them with stand those potholes and all of the impact of the hard stuff, hitting it longer. So when you keep the tires aligned, it helps them perform better monger. It helps maintain the entire vehicle handling so that the vehicle doesn't pull, despite the fact that you're trying to go straight, if your wheels become unaligned or, or unbalanced, you are starting to pull to the right or pull to the left, despite the fact that you are trying to keep the steering wheel straight, that is like life again, if we're not being intentional about creating that balance and all of our areas of our life, or we're not acknowledging that, Hey, my professional piece of my pie is going to have to need more time and energy right now. And this is how I'm going to intentionally set up my during this time. If we don't do that, then we start to shake and we start to pull off in one direction and leave the other one on behind. And it starts to damage those, those areas. Okay. Okay. So that was my comparison to a tire alignment and balance in what we're talking about. Okay. So let's get to number five, which is the N okay. I really wanted another B in here because I wanted to say that boundaries, but I'm going to say no, no, no, no. You know that song by Destiny's child? Something about no, no, no. That's okay. I can't remember the song and I certainly am not going to sing it, but you have to create boundaries. You have to say no. Okay. Ladies let's count on the count of three. Let's all say no one, two, three, no. Okay. So I hope that you said that with me now, my question is, did you die? Did anybody throw stones at you? Did you know, is your life over? No, no, no, no, no. It's not because there are times ladies that we have to say, no, we have, you have to be able to prioritize. Especially if you've taken the time to define what that balance is, define what piece of the pie you're going to have to spend more energy in and what you're going to do to protect the other pieces during that season, you're going to have to prioritize. And sometimes you're going to have to say, no, you're going to have to put boundaries in place and say no, sometimes. So we'll leave that one there. I know that one's hard, but you know, I encourage you to try it, try saying no. Sometimes if it means that you're going to add something to your life, just if you're already feeling busy and you're already feeling like you can't sleep and you're already feeling like you don't have a time to breathe in your day and your schedule is managing you, instead of you managing your schedule, then saying yes to something else is probably not the right choice for you. All that's going to do is not serve you, your family. So practicing now, okay. The next letter, and this is number six, and this is, is claim it have courage and care. Okay. That's overboard. It's three CS. It's three things. But I just want you to think about once you've set, those knows once you set those boundaries, claim it and stick to it. Okay. And then, you know, have that courage to continue to make decisions that serve you and your family and your friends and your areas of your life pie in a positive way. Make sure that what you are saying yes, to what you are defining as your balance, as your seasons for your certain pieces of your pie, make sure that that's serving you and it is serving whatever it is God is calling you to do. Because part of that balance too, in that definition is that spiritual, which is what is God telling you to do? What is the Holy spirit guiding you to do? And are you being intentional about making the time to do that and to spend time in that piece of your pie? Okay. And then care. I added care in there because care is something that I think for us, it's just really hard. It's hard because we don't take time to care for ourselves. We got to care for ourselves spiritually. We got to care for ourselves. Physically. We got to care for ourselves financially. We got to care for others, but you've got to make sure that you are doing something to take care of yourself. It's the same thing. Like when you're on an airplane and it says, put your oxygen mask on yourself first, before you help your child, same thing. You cannot help others if you are not helping yourself. So you've got to work that in. Okay, ladies, the last step, the seventh step, the E is empower. The word empower means to give someone the authority to do something, to allow authorized commission. Well, I am allowing you. I'm authorizing you. I'm commissioning you to walk in bold courageous action to be exactly who it is. God called you to be and give yourself grace, give yourself mercy, give yourself forgiveness, allow yourself to be imperfect because that's how God's created you and allow yourself to have an ongoing assessment of what you're doing in your daily action. What you're doing in your weekly action, your monthly action, what you're doing to achieve your goals, acknowledge what you're doing to achieve those things. You are enough. You are meeting all of the expectations that you need to because you're creating that intention reality around. I don't even know if that's word, you're creating that intention to be purposeful about what you're doing. None of us are perfect. So don't hold yourself to that. You are exactly who God's called you to be. You're equipped with exactly what God has given you to be successful in all the areas of your life. Whatever's going on in your season. That's placed there. You're equipped for it. Okay. I've got a couple of other scriptures that I wanted to mention throughout this. Of course, you know, I got long-winded and I got sidetracked and I didn't mention it. But we, we talked about Ecclesiastes three, one through eight, about the seasons. I want to talk about Philippians four, eight. I think it is. So finally whatever's true. Whatever's honorable. Whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely. Whatever is commendable. If there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things, fine. Those things. When you are in that alignment stage, when you are aligning yourself to the truth and to the word of God, make sure that you have that focus on those things that are true and honorable and just, and pure and lovely pay attention to those things and work those things in to your plans. Something else that I thought of was the story of Mary and Martha in Luke, Luke 10 38 through 42. Now, as they went on their way, Jesus entered a village and a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. But Martha was distracted with much serving and she went up to him and said, Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve you alone? Tell her then to help me. But the Lord answered her. Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her. Oh, that one is convicting, especially for a person like me. And probably a lot of you ladies listening, we are always trying to be everything to everybody wearing all the hats and we net, we want to juggle all the balls and we never want to stop juggling. We never want to take off any hats. And the reality is we were not created for that. There's a time and a place and we cannot forget what it is we're called to do. We're called the praise. We're called to worship. We're called to pray. We're called to nurture our spiritual piece of our pie. We've got to make sure that we put time in our day to do that, to go to the one who makes us strong, where we are weak, when we're feeling that overwhelm and that stress, we ask the Holy spirit to guide us so that we know where do we put our intentions during this difficult season? Or where do I find the joy and the love and the peace again, when I'm feeling anxious or when I'm feeling troubled or when I'm feeling like I can't find that joy anymore, go to the Holy spirit, go to God, go to Jesus and ask him for his guidance because we cannot do it alone. And we weren't meant to do it alone. Also, another thing that it reminded me of is, is call a sister, call a friend, email me, get on, get on my website and, and hit one of those contact me buttons. And I'll get on the phone with you, reach out to somebody that is like-minded ethic, and that can help you create that plan that you might need help with. Don't suffer in silence. None of us are going through this, that another sister can't help with. I mean, I think it's very purposeful that when I'm going through something, my sister, friend is not. So my sister friends ready and equipped to be there in my circle, in my life for that time and that timing. And I think that you're that rock for somebody else. In other ways, all of us ebbs and flows. All of us are not in crisis at once. And I think that's purposeful. God knows exactly who we need and when we need them. So don't forget to use your community when you are in a place where you're feeling a little unbalanced, you might just need a little bit of that help the other great thing. And my pastor mentioned this during a Bible study a few weeks ago, this is so interesting. And I think it plays right into us as women and, and this whole notion that we have to be perfectly balanced and we have to wear all the hats and do all the things for everyone. And we are busy, busy, busy all the time. Well in the Bible, God is always calling men to him to go. He's telling men to go, go to the mountain, go, go, go, go get your pickup, your nets, and come or drop your nets and come. He's always telling them to go. But when he goes, when he is talking to women, he goes to where the woman is. He goes to the woman at the well, he goes to Mary and Martha's house. So when Jesus comes to us, he's coming to us. Why? Because we are women. We are doers. We are juggling. We are being everything to everyone. And he knows that he designed us. He knows how we're wired. He knows how we're built, but I just wanted to, that was such a revelation to me where, you know, he's always telling the men to come to him, but he's always coming to us. So he's right there. And he will come to you where you are doing what you do. So I wanted to point that out because I thought that was awesome. I think there was one more step a scripture. Okay. Yeah, it was prowess, Proverbs 16, 11 adjust balance and scales are the Lords. All the weights in the bag are his work. So it, again, it's just a reminder that we are not supposed to be perfectly balanced without God. We have weaknesses that are made strong in him. Guess what? We can't be made strong if we don't have the weaknesses. If we don't have those areas that need his help, we need him for that. So don't be afraid to ask for that. All right. Let's review because I've gone a little bit longer than I wanted to go, but I hopefully it made sense and hopefully it wasn't too rambly, but let's go through the seven steps again. We're going to balance, we're going to defend it defined it. Excuse me. We're going to assess on an ongoing basis, we're going to laugh and loosen up and give ourselves some grace. We're going to align ourselves to the truth and make sure that our actions are in alignment with the definitions that we've created. And we're not holding ourselves to a, a false or higher standard than is necessary for the season. We are going to say, no, we're going to claim it. We're going to walk in courageous action and we're going to care for ourselves. And finally, we're going to be empowered to do what it is God's calling us to do and empowered to make these adjustments on an ongoing basis so that we can create that intentional balance in our lives. All right, sister, friends, thank you so much for listening. And if this helped you, or if you have a sister friend that you think this might help, please do me a solid and share it with them.

Author Abigail Dodds, a wife and mother to five, talks about the way men and women are inherently different from one another. It's easy to generalize male and female characteristics, but we must be careful. Dodds admits she doesn't really fit the mold of a woman with a gentle and quiet spirit. The gifts of the Spirit, she reminds us-love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control-can be exhibited by all believers, regardless of gender.

The Bible talks a lot about holiness. We see it in the story of Moses, we see it in the temple, we see it in Revelations, and everywhere in between. Holiness doesn't seem possible for us. But what if holiness wasn't only possible, it was also required? www.impactchurchmd.com

Friends, a shift in perception will happen when we let go with a willingness to allow God to transform our seeing. So let's PAUSE, go to Him in submission and prayer, and allow Him to allow a shift in how we see things today. (My own words ~ Danny). “O Lord, my God and my Haven in my distress! My Shield and my Shelter in my woes! My Asylum and Refuge in time of need and in my loneliness my Companion! In my anguish my Solace, and in my solitude a loving Friend! The Remover of the pangs of my sorrows and the Pardoner of my sins! Wholly unto Thee do I turn, fervently imploring Thee with all my heart, my mind and my tongue, to shield me from all that runs counter to Thy will in this, the cycle of Thy divine unity, and to cleanse me of all defilement that will hinder me from seeking, stainless and unsullied, the shade of the tree of Thy grace. Have mercy, O Lord, on the feeble, make whole the sick, and quench the burning thirst. Gladden the bosom wherein the fire of Thy love doth smolder, and set it aglow with the flame of Thy celestial love and spirit. Robe the tabernacles of divine unity with the vesture of holiness, and set upon my head the crown of Thy favor. Illumine my face with the radiance of the orb of Thy bounty, and graciously aid me in ministering at Thy holy threshold. Make my heart overflow with love for Thy creatures and grant that I may become the sign of Thy mercy, the token of Thy grace, the promoter of concord amongst Thy loved ones, devoted unto Thee, uttering Thy commemoration and forgetful of self but ever mindful of what is Thine. O God, my God! Stay not from me the gentle gales of Thy pardon and grace, and deprive me not of the wellsprings of Thine aid and favor. ‘Neath the shade of Thy protecting wings let me nestle, and cast upon me the glance of Thine all-protecting eye. Loose my tongue to laud Thy name amidst Thy people, that my voice may be raised in great assemblies and from my lips may stream the flood of Thy praise. Thou art, in all truth, the Gracious, the Glorified, the Mighty, the Omnipotent.” ‘Abdu'l-Bahá Check out our new blog, Outdoor Oasis: https://bahaioasis.wixsite.com/outdooroasis Email: bahaioasis@gmail.com Instagram and Twitter: @bahaioasis Snapchat: bahai.oasis --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bahaioasis/message

Welcome back to this episode of Wholly Made Life. And I am excited to share with you today about a book that I recently read. It is so amazing. Okay. So the title of this book is called the Ruthless Elimination of Hurry and it's by John Mark Comer. So the first quote that he has in the book is it is a scripture and it is come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest, take my yoke upon you and learn from me for, I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. This is what Jesus says in Matthew 11 verses 28 through 30. So this book is all about hurry, the hurriedness and the busy-ness of our lives. And I just want to read a little bit more and I will put a link in the show notes to this book. You can find it anywhere on Amazon. It's an audio book. I've listened to it a couple of times on audible. So I will put a link to this book because I think if you are anything, like I am the busy-ness is such a distraction in our lives. And I want to talk and I want to talk about it because it's about time that we get okay with eliminating the hurry in our life. So he says this on page two of his book. My life is so fast and I like fast I'm type a I'm driven. I get it done type of guy, but we're all past that night. Now I work six days a week early to late, and it's still not enough time to get it all done worse. I feel hurried like I'm tearing through each day. So busy with life that I'm missing out on one more on the moment and what is life, but a series of moments. So he talks about hurry and busy-ness and talks about, is this the way of Jesus is this who I'm actually becoming? He talks about all of the focus on being busy and hurried and out on the actual moments of our day, he talks about always being in a hurry, rushing to become somebody that he doesn't even like. He doesn't want this in his life. And I don't think that you do either. And so this book is all about eliminating hurry. So he talks about an inventory that we can take. And I'm telling you, this book was life-changing. I'm going to have to read it again. I've listened to it twice. And I'm about to go through the written part of the book. But here are 10 symptoms that John Mark Homer says that might indicate that you are a victim or a participator you're in the life of being hurried. All right. Number one is irritability. Number two is yeah. Hypersensitivity. Number three is restlessness. Number four is workaholism. I know none of you have ever heard of that one before. Right? number five is emotional numbness. That's a really good one. Number six is out of order priorities. Number seven is lack of care for your body. Number eight is escapist behaviors. Number nine is slippage of spiritual disciplines. And number 10 is isolation. I don't know about you, but I feel like we just hit on every area of our Holy made life pie. If you are in a place where you are feeling irritable or hypersensitive or restless, or you're working way too much, or you are nonstop activity, like you're go, go, go. You can't stop. You feel like you are having to keep a pack schedule. And even when you don't have something to do you feel like you should be doing something emotional numbness is like, when you are numb to the things going on around you, like example. When is the last time that you remember laughing did seriously? When you think about your day, do you recall laughing and feeling joyful today out of border priorities? Yes. That is their lack of care for your body. Oh my goodness. How many of us are in such a hurry that we grab a quick bite to eat on the way home from the fast food restaurant? We don't remember the last time we had a healthy home cooked meal. You know, we are living on coffee and diet sodas with caffeine, maybe we're drinking bangs or some other type of energy drink. What about the fact that escapist behaviors? I can raise hand on this one that I used my workaholism to escape the places or the things that I felt less competent in. Maybe you're just so tired that you don't choose to do things that would impact others positively, or maybe create that quality time that your husband is looking for. So you, you turn to whatever your distraction of choices like Netflix or social media, I don't know about you, but it was, It would be a really neat experiment. I think if you wrote down every single time you picked up your phone to check an email or check to check a social media site, literally that's an assignment, okay. For the next day, the next 24 hours, when you get up, I want you to make it tick in a notebook or however you keep track, but make a little tick of how many times you pick up your phone in idle times where you check social media, where you check an email, where you go back and see how many likes you got on your story, or how many viewers you got. I guarantee you it's much more time than you probably even realize is going to that. Okay. Number nine, talking about the slippage of spiritual disciplines. I don't know about you, but when you're in a hurry, when you get over busy, the things that are truly life-giving like prayer, like reminding yourself of what God says about you using biblical principles. And the only way you do that is by opening up the BI B L E. Those things tend to fall off. What about those Wednesday nights? At least for me, where it's church night and you are just so swamped or so busy that you're like, ah, maybe I'll just watch online instead of getting yourself to the church building where you'll be surrounded by other people who you love and love you. And you can gather together in a praise and worship. Those are the things that tend to slip. He goes into an entire chapter and maybe it's more than that on the Sabbath. That's a whole 'nother section that I won't go into, but, and then finally, isolation, isolation, w you know, when we are feeling hurried and busy, it is like a domino effect. We start to feel disconnected from God, which makes us feel disconnected from others, which makes us feel disconnected from ourselves and who we are and who we're becoming. And then we forget to talk to God. It's like this vicious cycle. So if you were to think about these things and score yourself in irritability, hypersensitivity, restlessness, workaholism, emotional numbness, out of order priorities, lack of care for your body, escape, his behavior, slippage of spiritual disciplines or isolation, that's 10 items. How many of those would you raise your hand and say, yep, that's me. Yep. I'm guilty of that one. Yep. I fallen into this other one. How many? Five, seven, eight, ten one. I'm telling you right now that when things feel a little out of control or a little unbalanced, a little overwhelming, I can raise my hand for all 10 of these. If you can raise your hand for at least half of these, then you may be in that may be an indicator that you may be living a hurried busy. So as far as this book, first thing as we always talk about ladies is awareness, personal awareness. You gotta be aware of what's going on. You got to stop long enough to recognize where a problem might be. You know, when you're feeling that restlessness or that overwhelm or that stress, or you're just not finding the joy and things that you used to anymore, or maybe you're thinking back on your day or maybe a week and thinking, man, have I even laughed about anything? If you're in a place where you're feeling that way, number one, get this book, it will change your life. Number two, grab a coaching session with me. This is exactly what I worked through with my clients. So grab a session@angietoninirogers@gmail.com. These are the things that we are identifying and defining. We're embracing where we are. We're coming up with an action plan to activate to make a difference in these areas. And then we are assessing to make sure that we are staying on the right track and evaluating to make changes as we need to. Okay. So I just want to remind you of that, but this book I'm telling you is absolutely amazing. So let me give you a quick cliff notes of what some of the solutions are that John Mark Comer, the author of the Ruthless Elimination of Hurry recommends. So the first solution is to discuss time. We all have the same amount of time every single day. So what he talks about is to slow down and manage your time effectively. The greatest thing that in the world that we can do is to become aware of what we're doing every single day, so that we can manage our time in a way that is beneficial to really work towards who it is we are intended to become. You know, we did all throughout my time, working in mental health and in social worker arenas, we did what we called time studies. And I can remember the groans now when it was time to do our time studies. So this is where for a certain block of time, let's say you work an eight hour shift and it is every five minutes or every 15 minutes. You have to label what you did during that block of time. And you have to do that for your whole shift. And usually we would do it for an entire week. So if you work a five day work week in an eight hour shift, then you would have to every 15 minutes label what it was you were doing. And I will tell you those people that were being honest in their times, it was eye opening because there were so many times where you would look at those results and you would see that, wow, you're spending so much time on emails. You're not getting to any of the actual day-to-day operations that you should be participating in. Or there were so many different times where let's say you had a 15 minute block and you would have several different labels during that 15 minutes, it showed a lot of distractibility or you were not managing your time. Well, so you would start an email and then get interrupted with a phone call and then somebody would be at your door and then you would go get a glass of water, and then you would come back and eat a snack. And then you would answer the phone. And then you would answer an email. And, you know, by the end of an eight hour shift, it's like my goodness, what did I do all day? So if you have never done a time study of sorts, I would take as many, much as it feels kind of annoying. It is so eye opening to take a look at what you're actually doing in a day. So from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed, I would say one of the first things that you should do is just do a time study. It doesn't have to be elaborate, but just keep a little record of what you're doing. And maybe you do it an hour blocks. So it's a little bit easier to manage, but that will at least give you an idea of what you're doing throughout the day. Okay. The second thing he talks about is the secret, the easy yoke, and, Oh my goodness, this was so good. You guys, this is on, this starts on page 75 of his book. I'm telling you, you guys have to get this book. Okay. He talks about the easy yoke and he talks about Jesus saying that his yoke is easy and his burden is light. So really what does that mean? It talks about the way that Jesus shouldered the weight of life, living as a human being, walking this earth and experiencing thing that we have experienced. So when we think about ourselves, it's the way that we shoulder the weight of our lives through marriage, through to force through prayer, through money, through sex, through conflict, conflict, through government, through a law, all of those things that we are all shouldering as a weight. And if you think about what we've had to shoulder through the weight of life, this past year in 2020, and halfway into this year, it's the way in which we carry that. It's the way in which we shoulder that weight. Yeah. Two oxygen that's yoke together to pull a cart, to plow a field. The yoke on the oxygen is how they shoulder that load. What made Jesus unique wasn't that he had, it was that he had an easy yoke think about it. And I have never thought about this scripture in this way before, but yes, I know that, you know, he's got an easy yoke and his burdens are light. I never really attributed to it's because of the way he shoulders that weight. And he's calling us to shoulder the weight, but to give him the weight that we're carrying in our lives so that he can shoulder it for us, shoulder it in a way that will make it light. I just, I was, I was blown away by the way that he talked about the easy yoke and the light Brown that Jesus carries. So let me read this again to you. The scripture come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest, take my yoke upon you and learn from me for, I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy. And my burden is light. This is from Matthew 11. And I'm paraphrasing a little bit. Think about that. This is like an invitation from Jesus to live, how Jesus is calling us to live. It's like saying, are you tired? Are you burnt out? Are you overwhelmed? Are you stressed out? Are you restless? Come to me, daughter, come to me, get away with me and I'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. I'll show you how to rest. Walk with me and work with me. Watch how I do it. Jesus is saying to us and inviting us, learn from him, learn the rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me. Stay with me, learn from me. Talk with me, walk with me, be at peace with me. And you will learn to live freely and lightly too. That's what God's saying. That is what this author is reminding us. It's an invitation for us. We're tired. We're burnt out. We're stressed. Yes. We're stuck. We're going through our to-do lists. We are on caffeine just to make it through the day. What if we didn't have to live like that? What if we were able to give ourselves permission? Not to be hurried, not to have to check off that last thing before bed. I mean, what if we accepted this invitation to allow him to show us how to shoulder the weight of life so that it is a light burden? My goodness, that's good right there. You can't tell me that's not good, but here's the thing we want that life. We want that easy life. We want that easy yoke. We want that burden to be light. We want to be able to shoulder that weight of light so that it is light, but Jesus didn't just live that life. He wasn't just about that life. He lived and walked and talked a lifestyle. It's like, we want that life, but not willing to adopt the lifestyle behind it. That's what this author says. And yes, that might give you a little spiritual spanking or a little personal awareness. But that's the truth. Sometimes we make things so much more difficult because we're not really working intentionally to adopt the lifestyle that he modeled for us. And not only that, he modeled this lifestyle, but he gave us equipment that we are to use to help us create this lifestyle. The equipment is the yoke. A yoke is a work instrument. It's a thing that helps us bear the responsibilities that we have in life. It's a way that he can help us use a piece of equipment. Metaphorically called a yoke that helps us shoulder, the weight of life in a bearable way. You guys, the ticket is not to think about an easier life because he never said that we'd have an easy life. He says, when the trials and tribulation comes, when the struggle comes, we will be prepared, right? He will give us what we need while he has said to us, yes, that he has an easy yoke. He has an easy and a light burden. He is not saying that we're going to have an easy life. He's saying that he's given us the equipment to shoulder the responsibilities and bear the responsibilities that we have in our life. That can be hard sometimes. Yeah. Revelation. That's what this is. Okay. So he does say that there are four solutions and I'm not going to give you all the details around these, because I know that this book for my listeners, you ladies, that are sitting here listening to the Wholly made life. I know this book is for you. So I just want you to go get it. And I don't get a daggone thing for you going to get this book, other than knowing that this book is going to be a gift to you and your life. Okay. All right. So the four solutions that he mentioned, and you're going to have to go get the book to dive in, to see what these mean. All right. Number one, silence and solitude. Number two, the Sabbath number three, simplicity. And number four is I lost it slowing. Okay, ladies, I hope this was helpful. And yes, I just dropped the mic and like slam the book shut because this book is like a mic drop moment. Okay, ladies, I urge you go out and get this book. It will be such a gift to your life. And like I said before, if you are working through these kinds of things and you're feeling stuck, jump over to AngieToniniRogers@gmail.com, let me know that you're ready for a coaching session and we will walk through this thing together. All right, ladies, I will see you on the next episode of Wholly made life, where we can live it out together and live whole wholly.

"Wholly, Holy Presence," a sermon by Rev. Erica Liu on Luke 24:13-48.

In this episode we discuss the importance of encountering God through play and leisure. We talk about how we remember what we played as children and when we stopped playing for a more serious, busy or productive adulthood. We chat about God’s desire to restore our playful hearts so that we may come as children with trust, dependence and surrender.

How do you understand ‘play’ - as a waste of time, unnecessary,frivolous or as a sign of trust, surrender and dependence? What are small acts of play, rest and leisure that you enjoy? What are some new ways to incorporate play and leisure that God delights in into your life? Journal Questions: What is the history of play in your life? Reflect on what, when, and how you played as a child. When did you stop playing and why? How might God want to reclaim and redeem play in your life as an adult? How might you need to replace efficiency, business and work of being an adult with the joy and delight of being child-like? How does the Father delight in you as you play? Quote to Ponder:  The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground.” - G.K. Chesterton Scripture for Lectio Divina: “Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. - Matthew 18:3  This episode is sponsored by Reform Wellness.  This week’s episode is sponsored by Reform, a Christ-centered functional medicine and holistic wellness practice.

Welcome back to Episode Part 2 of the Feminine Energy, Pleasure and Purpose series that features Rose Evelyn, of Rose Up Coaching. In this episode we dive into the role that pleasure, trusting your intuition (hello womb work and pussy power) plays in the full emergence of your purpose. What your soul knows it is here to experience, create and do, is an extension of the sacred pleasure you choose for yourself moment by moment. Let me briefly explain….(AND please do yo self a favor and tune into the episode for the whole beautiful, sacred, truth bomb dropping riffs!),....we start by creating space. At a very basic level, we must first decide to create space for ourselves, space in our energy field, space in time, space in our world- internally AND externally to allow ourselves to tap into hearing the pings of “go here…” “do this…” “You really want this...:”, “That would feel so juicy”. These internal signals are divine guidance- and they live within our portal- our womb- in our femininity.  We invite you into our world of inner child talk, riffs on faking orgasms, reconnecting to your sacral, to watching your full purpose emerge- and everything in between.   There are so many delicious tid bits in this episode. Our highest intention is that the energy, concepts, tools, guidance and invitations infused in this episode guide you to seek within for the answers. Guide you to a deeper sense of self and a deep desire to continue your healing. Guide you to reclaim pleasure, play and THE life that brings your purpose forth in it’s highest expression.  Sit with this- When was the last time you lost track of time doing something you absolutely loved? And what did you love to do as a child?

And after getting into a boat he crossed the sea and came to his own town.And just then some people were carrying a paralyzed man lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.” Then some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming.” But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, ‘Stand up and walk'? But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he then said to the paralytic—“Stand up, take your bed and go to your home.” And he stood up and went to his home. When the crowds saw it, they were filled with awe, and they glorified God, who had given such authority to human beings.
