A special episode from Meg & Amy's other podcast, Campus Killings while Meg & Amy take some time off for the holidays. In this episode, we explore the 2014 disappearance and murder of Hannah Graham; an 18 year old student at University of Virginia. She vanished on September 13 of that year. A large scale search for her was conducted, which to this day, is still the largest missing persons search conducted in the state of VA. Unfortunately, nothing was found. Then, five weeks after she vanished, her body was found on an abandoned property. She had been murdered. Police had a potential suspect early on; an unknown man who was captured on surveillance cameras leaving a bar with Hannah. He was finally identified as Jesse Matthew, and when police investigated him, they discovered that he was a serial predator.

Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.comIf you are only focusing on building muscle, you are missing half the equation for long-term mobility. In this mashup episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon brings together top orthopedic experts to discuss the critical importance of joint and tendon health.While muscle develops relatively quickly, your tendons and ligaments can take 6 to 9 months to fully adapt to a new training stimulus. This gap is where most injuries happen. We dive deep into the biological mechanics of tendons, the"athletic accommodation timeline," and why you must progressively overload your connective tissue—not just your muscle bellies.You will learn:The Menopause Connection: Why women face a 30% higher risk of arthritis and rapid bone loss after age 50, and the role of estrogen in joint inflammation.Osteoporosis Prevention: Why high-impact "flight" exercises (jumping) are more effective for bone density than traditional lifting alone.The Frozen Shoulder Mystery: How to identify the warning signs and why this condition is often linked to hormonal shifts rather than trauma.Injury Recovery & Prehab: The truth about PRP, needle tenotomy, and the "anti-fragility" mindset needed to build a resilient body.The History of Muscle: How ancient Greek views of "pneuma" and the "gift of strength" shaped our modern misunderstanding of movement.Stop training until you break.

(Scroll down to download a free companion guide designed to help you more deeply process this episodes content.) In today’s episode, Carol is joined by author and Bible teacher Melissa Spoelstra for a powerful conversation about fear, spiritual warfare, and the God who reigns over both heaven and earth. Drawing from her new Bible study, Melissa helps us understand why the Bible talks about angels—not so that we’ll become preoccupied with supernatural beings, but so our view of God will grow larger, stronger, and more hope-filled. Together, Carol and Melissa explore what Scripture reveals about the unseen spiritual realm: angelic hosts, messengers, cherubim and seraphim, fallen angels, and even Satan. But more importantly, they highlight the character of the God who commands the angel armies, sets boundaries on evil, strengthens His servants through suffering, and offers refuge in moments of fear. This episode gently but boldly addresses questions many believers wrestle with:• What battles am I facing that I can’t see? • How do I fight fear without becoming fearful of spiritual warfare? • Why does God allow testing, and where is He when life feels heavy? • How do angels reveal God’s heart, His protection, and His authority? Through practical insight and biblical clarity, Melissa reminds us that although our battles are real, our God is sovereign, present, and victorious. We don’t fix our eyes on angels—we fix our eyes on the God who created them. And in doing so, we find the hope and courage we need for whatever we’re facing right now. Whether you’re wrestling with anxiety, fear of the unknown, spiritual attack, or simply longing to understand God’s supernatural care more deeply, this conversation will breathe peace and truth into your soul. Key Scriptures Discussed 2 Kings 6 – Elisha’s servant sees the chariots of fire• Hebrews 1 – Angels as ministering spirits• Psalm 91 – God’s promise of protection• Ephesians 6 – Our battle against spiritual forces• Luke 2 – God sends an angel to outcasts• Revelation – Angels in worship and judgment Themes Covered✓ Spiritual warfare without fear✓ God’s sovereignty over heaven and earth✓ Discernment, deception, and truth✓ How angels reveal God’s character✓ The limits God places on Satan Discussion/Reflective Questions: Where in your life right now does fear feel louder than your confidence in God’s reign—and what does remembering the spiritual realm change for you? Which aspect of God’s character, revealed through the ministry of angels, brought you the most comfort or clarity today? How have you sensed spiritual warfare in your thoughts, relationships, or emotions recently—and what truth about God’s authority helps you fight back? What lies or subtle deceptions tend to trigger anxiety for you, and how can Scripture help you recognize and counter them? When have you felt strengthened, protected, or supported by God in a way that you couldn’t fully explain? What did that reveal about His presence? What one step can you take this week to shift your focus away from fear of the enemy and toward a greater trust in the God who rules over everything?

As we step into a new year, one question guides everything we do: How can we better serve believers who want to manage God's money, God's way?At FaithFi, that question has shaped a season of prayer, growth, and fresh vision. Today on Faith & Finance, we sat down with Afton Phillips, our Head of Content, to talk about what God has been doing—and where He's leading us next.What follows is a look at the remarkable momentum of the past year and the exciting resources coming in the year ahead.A Year of Remarkable Growth and God's ProvisionThe past year has been one of extraordinary growth for FaithFi—growth that reflects a deep hunger for biblical wisdom applied to everyday financial decisions.Our podcast audience grew by 55,000 listeners, bringing the total to more than 880,000 listeners.Faith & Finance is now heard on over 2,000 radio stations nationwide.Our FaithFi Partner community grew by nearly 600 partners, enabling us to expand our reach and deepen our impact.Behind the scenes, God also provided through new team members, a completely redesigned website filled with original content, and countless stories from listeners whose lives are being shaped by Scripture-centered financial guidance. It's a powerful reminder that timeless biblical wisdom still meets very real, modern needs.Looking Ahead: What Excites Us MostMomentum invites vision—and the year ahead is full of it.Our Ultimate Treasure DevotionalOne of the most anticipated resources is a new devotional, Our Ultimate Treasure, written to help believers understand financial stewardship through the lens of the gospel. While it officially releases in 2026, anyone who becomes a FaithFi Partner by December 31 will receive it as a thank-you gift.This devotional is designed to anchor financial decisions in eternal perspective—reminding us that money is a tool, not our treasure.A Brand-New FaithFi App ExperienceEarly next year, we're launching FaithFi 5.0, a completely redesigned app experience that makes practical money management simpler—and spiritual formation deeper.At the heart of the update is a new feature called Financial Rhythms. These rhythms are daily, intentional practices that help align financial habits with God's truth through Scripture, reflection, and action. The goal isn't just better budgets, but transformed hearts.Alongside these rhythms, the app will include:Interactive studies and devotionalsAudio versions of select resourcesA growing digital library, including articles from Faithful Steward magazineFaithful Steward Magazine and a Special New EditionFaithFi now releases Faithful Steward magazine quarterly, each issue filled with original, thoughtful content. In the coming year, we're also preparing our first-ever special edition, focused entirely on women and wealth.This issue will build on findings from the nationwide Women, Wealth, and Faith study and explore how more women are stewarding God's resources with wisdom, confidence, and faith.Introducing FaithFi Field Guides: A New Resource CategoryOne of the most exciting developments is the launch of an entirely new product category in 2026: FaithFi Field Guides.These workbook-style guides are designed to help believers thoughtfully answer the questions financial advisors hear most often:How much is enough?How do I give intentionally?How do I prepare the next steward?Each Field Guide will combine biblical framing, reflective questions, and practical worksheets—tools that can be used individually, as a couple, in small groups, or alongside a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA). Rather than prescribing one-size-fits-all answers, these guides are meant to help people discern their own next faithful step.Across all our resources, the heart remains the same: to connect biblical truth with real-life application in ways that reduce overwhelm and encourage confidence. By breaking big decisions into manageable steps, we hope to remind believers that they're not alone—and that God is faithful as they seek to honor Him.Powered by FaithFi PartnersNone of this would be possible without FaithFi Partners. Their generosity fuels every broadcast, devotional, app feature, and study. Partners receive:Premium access to the FaithFi appFaithful Steward magazine, each quarterNew devotionals and books delivered to their doorYou can become a partner by visiting FaithFi.com/Give and making a $35 monthly or $400 annual donation.Right now, every gift is matched dollar-for-dollar through December 31, doubling its impact as we equip even more families to live as faithful stewards.A Prayer for the Year AheadAs we look forward, our prayer is simple: that you would grow in confidence as a steward of God's resources, resting in His faithfulness and wisdom. The future is bright—not because of innovation alone, but because God continues to guide, provide, and transform lives through His truth.The best is yet to come.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My son recently graduated from college and now has a significant amount of student loan debt at high interest rates. What options or strategies could help him lower the long-term cost of repaying those loans?I recently sold my home and have about $50,000 in equity. I'd like guidance on how to invest that money—and how to minimize or avoid long-term capital gains taxes.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

This week Kate Sheppard and Thomas Lecaque drop in to talk about the greatest romcom of all time.About our guests:Dr. Kathleen Sheppard earned her PhD in History of Science from the University of Oklahoma in 2010. After a post-doctoral teaching fellowship at the American University in Cairo, she arrived at Missouri S&T in the fall of 2011. She teaches mainly survey courses on modern Western Civilizations, which is arguably one of the most important courses students in 21st century America can take. Her main focus is on the history of science from the ancient Near East to present day Europe, United States, and Latin America. She has taught courses on the history of European science and Latin American science, as well as a seminar on women in the history of science.Sheppard's research focuses on 19th and 20th century Egyptology and women in the field. Her first book was a scientific biography of Margaret Alice Murray, the first woman to become a university-trained Egyptologist in Britain (Lexington, 2013).

Terry Real is a therapist and best-selling author expert on male emotional health and how men can build the skills for healthy relating to others: in relationships, work, friendships and to themselves. We discuss how mixed and ever-changing messages about what masculinity is are impacting the mental and physical health of men and boys. Terry explains how learning the skill of "relationality" leads to improvements in all aspects of boys' and men's lives and shares practical tools for how to do that. We also discuss the essential role of having a close male community to build confidence and self-esteem. This conversation offers actionable guidance for boys, men and women seeking to build healthier relationships with themselves and others. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Guest Bio: Sarah Stonestreet hosts the Strong Women podcast. A lover of learning, Sarah enjoys reading history, classic literature, theology, and books about global Christianity. As Director of Community Outreach at Saint George's Anglican Church, she looks for ways to care for the Colorado Springs community through the local Church. In this season of life, Sarah has the joy of seeing God work in the lives of young people as she homeschools her youngest three children and co-leads St. George's youth group with her husband, John.  Show Summary: What do you think it means to be a strong woman? Sarah Stonestreet felt personally convicted to help women define “strength” in a way separate from how culture and society tell us to be strong. Join host Elisa Morgan as she dives into the meaning of strong womanhood with Sarah during this God Hears Her conversation.   Notes and Quotes:  “A strong woman develops eyes to see the world around her with all its beauty and brokenness and to love with Christ's love with the gifts He has given her in the corners of the world where they find themselves.” —Sarah Stonestreet  “It's not that our faith is about the works that we do, but it's that our faith compels us—in love—to act as Christ would act.” —Sarah Stonestreet  “The courage comes because you've built up that habit of going to the Lord and seeking Him like He is silver and gold. So, when the time comes to actually make a bold stand, you're prepared.” —Sarah Stonestreet   Verses:  Ephesians 2:8-10   Hebrews 12  2 Corinthians 5   Related Episodes: GHH Ep 24 – When We Feel We Aren't Enough with Laura Smith: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/when-we-feel-we-arent-enough/ GHH Ep 60 – Becoming a Woman of Moxie with Julie Richardson: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/becoming-a-woman-with-moxie/ Unshakable Moxie series: https://youtu.be/d4DlFSeqS9I?si=0zEPwR6ERpAbdHG9  Links:  The Strong Women Podcast Website: https://colsoncenter.org/strong-women God Hears Her website: https://go.odb.org/ghh191  Subscribe to the God Hears Her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GodHearsHerODBM

This week, I coached women who went from devastated to empowered in days, not months. Women who thought they needed all the answers before taking action. Women who discovered that external validation was always internal all along. This episode is a compilation of the most powerful coaching insights from just ONE week inside the Get Over Your Ex program—proof that when you have the right method and support, transformation happens fast. If you've been wondering what's actually possible when you stop doing this alone, listen to this. The Get Over Your Ex - https://dorothyabjohnson.com/getoveryourex 

Women are being put on hormones without anyone fixing the root problems — and it's wrecking their results. In this episode, we break down The 10 Commandments of HRT so you can avoid hormone chaos, wasted money, and feeling worse instead of better. We cover why progesterone MUST be paired with estrogen, why “start low and slow” matters, how testosterone impacts metabolism and mood, and why metabolic health, gut health, and liver detoxification are non-negotiable before and during HRT. If you're in perimenopause, menopause, or considering hormone therapy — this episode is your roadmap. *** CONNECT:

Filling in for Adam McManus, I'm Ean Leppin. (Contact@eanvoiceit.com) Trump Orders Airstrike Against ISIS Militants in Nigeria President Donald Trump ordered an airstrike against ISIS-affiliated militants in northwest Nigeria on Christmas Day!  Persecution.org reports that Christians in Nigeria have faced ongoing attacks with minimal support from the international community until recently.  In the first 7 months of this year alone, more than 7000 Christians have been killed, an average of 35 per day.  President Trump said in a post on Truth Social that the ISIS militants have been, ‘viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians.'  Christmas Celebrations Return to Bethlehem and Nazareth FOX News reports that Christmas celebrations returned this year to both Bethlehem and Nazareth.  In Nazareth, where Jesus grew up, festivities were rooted in a growing Christian presence.  In Bethlehem, where Jesus was born, celebrations took place after more than two years of disruption.  Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics reports that over 184,000 Christians live in Israel as of Christmas Eve of 2024 a growth of 0.7%.  This makes Israel one of the few countries in the Middle East where the Christian community continues to grow. This is good news!  However, Heather Johnston, founder and CEO of the US Israel Education Association said, ‘At Christmas, the contrast between Nazareth and Bethlehem tells a larger story.  Christians are flourishing in Nazareth under Israeli rule, while in Bethlehem, under Palestinian Authority, the Christian population has been shrinking for years.' In fact there were reports for multiple incidents targeting Christians in the week leading up to Christmas for those living under Palestinian Authority areas, like Bethlehem.  Israel's Foreign Ministry responded by warning of, ‘growing hostility toward Christians'. Continue to pray for believers in Israel. James 1:2-4 says Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.  And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. Massive Financial Waste in the US News of massive financial waste has surfaced from The Office of Audit Services.  The watchdog report was released last week.  It showed that over $207.5 million was issued in managed care payments on behalf of deceased enrollees between July 2021 to July 2022.  American Family News reports that a new provision in the One Big Beautiful Bill will require states to audit their Medicaid beneficiary lists to help reduce these payments in the future.  In fact by 2027 it will be required that Medicaid agencies practice quarterly audits of their beneficiary lists. Barna Releases List of Top Trends in 2025 Barna Research released their list of the top 10 trends, or most read, reports of 2025.  Here are the top 3.   3)  Women and Men Experience Church Attendance Differently. A report released in October.  The conclusion of the report shows that of 2025, 43 percent of men and 36 percent of women report attending church regularly, based on reported weekly attendance.  In 5 of the last 6 years, men have outpaced women in this key measure of religious engagement and the 2025 gap is the largest measured.   2) Young Adults Are Leading a Resurgence in Church Attendance. A report released in September.  This report shows that Millennial and Gen Z Christians are attending church more frequently than before and more often than older generations.  The typical Gen Z churchgoer now attends 1.9 weekends per month, while Millennial churchgoers average 1.8 times, representing the highest attendance levels among young Christians since Barna began tracking them. 1) Belief in Jesus Is Rising - Especially Among Younger Adults A report released back in April.  The study reveals that 66 percent of all US adults say they have made a personal commitment to Jesus that is still important in their life today.  That marks a 12 percentage point increase since 2021. We celebrate a growing number of people following the Lord with Psalm 100:1-3:  "Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.  Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs.  Know that the Lord is God.  It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, the sheep of His pasture." YouVersion Bible App Reaches One Billion Downloads And finally, CBN.com reports that it has been a big year for the YouVersion Bible App in 2025.  The app hit a huge milestone of having one billion downloads!  YouVersion has seen a 27 percent increase in daily use in Sub-Saharan Africa and a 33 percent increase in daily Bible engagement in North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.  It also reported a 14 percent increase in North America.  So what was the most read verse of 2025?  It was Isaiah 41:10 that says, So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. The year marks the fourth time in six years that Isaiah 41:10 has claimed the top spot. CEO Bobby Gruenewald says, ‘In a world full of anxiety and uncertainty, people are drawn to God's promise to be with us, to strengthen us, and to help us.  That message never gets old because the need for it is universal and timeless.'   Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, December 29th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

In this episode of Vegan Proteins: Muscles by Brussels Radio, Alice and Sawyer unpack the complex relationship between weight gain, weight loss, muscle building, and modern culture.They explore how lifestyle structure, calorie density, and societal norms make long-term weight management difficult, and why many people are unknowingly under-muscled rather than “overweight.”The conversation breaks down common myths around metabolism, dieting, and body trends, emphasizing that sustainable fitness often requires gaining weight to increase muscle, metabolism, and long-term health.Alice and Sawyer also discuss realistic timelines for muscle growth, the importance of resistance training, the dangers of extreme body ideals, and why patience, balance, and self-compassion are critical for lasting results, especially for beginners navigating fitness in a culture built around convenience and excess.

Apply to work with us: https://fit4lifeacademy.health/vsl-page Download my FREE Nutrition for Fat Loss eBook:   https://fit4lifeacademy.health/blueprint In this episode, we unpack a question a lot of women quietly wrestle with: is fat loss actually harder for women, or are we just missing important context? Rather than blaming hormones or pretending biology doesn't matter, this conversation breaks down what's really going on beneath the surface. We explain why fat loss technically works the same for everyone, but often feels very different for women once factors like muscle mass, energy needs, hunger, and monthly hormonal shifts come into play. You'll hear why standard advice like "just cut 500 calories" often backfires, how food flexibility looks very different depending on body size, and why progress can be happening even when the mirror isn't cooperating yet. We also talk through common frustration points like cravings around the menstrual cycle, slower visible changes in certain areas, and why chasing extreme leanness can create more problems than progress. Most importantly, this episode reframes what a smarter, more sustainable approach looks like for women. One that prioritizes realistic deficits, flexibility when it matters most, and strength training as a long-term investment instead of punishment. If fat loss has ever felt unfair, confusing, or unnecessarily hard, this episode will help you understand why and show you a more grounded way forward.  

In a culture that pressures us to conform, The Courage to Stand offers a biblical vision for facing fear without losing our soul. In this conversation with U.S. Women's National Soccer player Jaelene Daniels, courage is reframed as obedience to God—marked by integrity, endurance, and faithfulness. This talk reminds us that true courage is found in speaking truth with love, relying on community, and trusting God's strength in our weakness.

Every year teaches me something different, but the week between Christmas and New Year's always reveals the deepest truth: women living with migraines aren't craving a fresh planner or a tidy home… they're craving a nervous system that finally feels safe. This episode is about releasing the fear, frustration, and beliefs that have kept you stuck - and stepping into 2026 with a completely different foundation.  These are the three things every woman with migraines should leave behind in 2025 so you don't carry them into a new year. I'm breaking down the patterns I see every single holiday season, and sharing simple and honest shifts that will change your life. In this episode, you'll hear: Why the belief that "nothing can help me" is one of the most harmful thoughts women carry into the new year: and why your history - hormones, trauma, injury, autoimmunity, pituitary issues - does not make you unfixable. Different outcomes never mean no outcome. What actually changes when you move beyond conventional medicine alone: why symptom management (Botox, triptans, preventatives, nerve blocks, HRT) can help short-term but often increases rebound, liver stress, inflammation, and chronicity, and why functional root-cause work is where real transformation happens. Why you were never meant to figure migraines out alone: how gut health, sleep rhythms, electrolytes, toxicity, nutrition, emotional load, and your migraine buffer all interact, and why expecting yourself to untangle it through Google searches is not a fair ask. A powerful reframe for 2026: that you don't need perfection, the "right time," or a quiet season to begin healing, you only need one step that supports your nervous system and shifts your inflammation network. A vision for where you could be next December: fewer migraines, more predictability, more energy, more joy, more confidence, and more of your actual life back - the kind of year where you say, "I cannot believe the difference." Wishing you a grounded, steady, pain-free transition into the new year - and a 2026 where your nervous system finally feels like it's working with you instead of against you.   Resources & Links
