We all face stressful seasons in life, times when we feel like we're treading water and barely getting by. Thankfully, God's Word gives us new strength to keep going, to trust God when it doesn't make sense, and to handle stress even in the most difficult of times. In this series, Pastor Rick explains how to make it across the finish line when you're feeling tired and worn out.How do you keep going when troubles are coming at you from all directions? You get the power to keep going from the same place Jesus and Paul got it— God. In this message, Pastor Rick looks at the lives of people in the Bible to discover biblical principles you can apply when you're feeling overwhelmed.Spectators at a race often shout, “Keep going!” to motivate the athletes. That's also great advice for anyone who feels emotionally, mentally, or spiritually exhausted from running the marathon of life. Join Pastor Rick as he reminds us that God will give us the power we need to finish what he has called us to do.

They will soar on wings like eagles.” Midday can reveal what the morning has taken out of you. The energy may be fading, patience may be thinner and responsibilities that seemed manageable earlier may now feel much heavier. But this is not the moment to pretend you are strong. It is a moment to receive strength from God. Spoken Prayer Father, at this midday moment I pray for those listening in the United States, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Singapore, Japan and South Africa. You know what each person has already carried today. You know the conversations, responsibilities, disappointments and pressures that have quietly drained their strength. Lord, meet them here. Where someone feels weary, let Your presence become real. Where discouragement has begun to settle in, breathe fresh hope into their heart. Where someone feels they have nothing left to give, remind them that they were never created to carry everything in their own strength. Jesus, we bring You our weakness without pretending. You already know where we are tired. You know what has tested us and what we are still trying to carry. Holy Spirit, breathe fresh life into weary hearts. Renew our strength for this moment, not by promising that every difficulty will disappear, but by reminding us that we do not have to face it alone. Give us grace for the next conversation, wisdom for the next decision and courage for the next step. So we pause and breathe. We release the pressure to prove ourselves, and we receive the strength that comes from hoping in God. We may not have everything we need for tomorrow, but Your grace is here for today. Jesus, strengthen us and help us continue faithfully. Amen. Blessing: May the Lord renew your strength today, restore your hope and give you grace for every step still ahead.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are interrogating some watch industry conventional wisdom. There's a lot of it out there. From the idea that it's the “story” that matters most in a watch, to the principle of “buying what you love,” and even the idea that everyone needs a certain type of watch in their collection. This is a fun conversation and Zach and Kat definitely poke some holes in some watch industry ideas that perhaps don't stand up completely to close scrutiny. Let us know in the comments if we're on the right track! And stay tuned until the end of the pod for some great cultural recs from Zach and Kat, including a produce recommendation from Kat (a first on the podcast) and one of Zach's most watched trailers ever for a movie that looks absolutely insane.

Kent Jacobs, a 41-year-old Lumbee man with an intellectual disability who functioned at about a nine-year-old level, disappeared on March 10, 2002, while taking his usual Sunday walk through his childhood neighborhood in Hope Mills, North Carolina, after a weekend at his mother Martha's home; he was last seen around 5 p.m. wearing a distinctive Harley-Davidson hoodie and carrying about $200 in cash. A massive search involving helicopters, dogs, boats, and hundreds of volunteers found no trace of him. Authorities later classified the case as a presumed homicide based on an informant tip that he may have been robbed and killed in a planned attack, possibly by people who knew him, though no arrests were made and his body was never found. A later lead involving felon Clifton Jones, who allegedly said Jacobs was buried in a refrigerator on his property, produced an incomplete 2010 search that recovered nothing; Jones had already died and much of the land went unexamined. Jacobs was declared legally dead in 2012, but the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office still lists the case as an open homicide. His family, especially sister Jackie, who left her life in Seattle to search for him, has never stopped seeking answers, and his mother kept his bedroom unchanged with a candle in the window hoping he would find his way home.   Sources: Dateline: Missing in America.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningIsaiah 40:31 — Those Who Hope in the Lord Will Renew Their Strength: A Midday Prayer When You Feel Worn Down Themes: Renewal • Strength • Perseverance Nations in this prayer: United Kingdom • New Zealand • Singapore • Japan • South Africa • Germany  By midday, even a good morning can begin to catch up with us. The demands of life can quietly drain our strength. This is the moment to stop and receive from Jesus. Scripture — Isaiah 40:31 (NIV) “Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.” By midday, even when we have started well, we can discover that our strength is running low. The decisions of the morning, the demands of work, family responsibilities and the quiet pressures we carry can leave us feeling worn down. We began this day asking Jesus for light, and then we asked Him to guide our steps. Now we come to Him for strength to keep walking. Isaiah reminds us that those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. Lord Jesus, thank You that You do not measure us by how strong we feel at this moment. When our energy is low, You invite us to place our hope in You. Today we pray for people in United Kingdom, New Zealand, Singapore, Japan, South Africa, and Germany. Renew those who are physically tired, emotionally drained or spiritually discouraged. Holy Spirit, breathe fresh strength into people who have been carrying more than they expected. Jesus, teach us that perseverance does not always look dramatic. Sometimes it is simply getting up again, making the next right choice, forgiving someone, finishing what needs to be done, or continuing to trust You when we cannot see immediate change. Where our hearts have become heavy, renew our hope. Where disappointment has weakened us, remind us that You are still faithful. Where we feel we have nothing left to give, help us receive from You before we try to give again. Lord Jesus, carry us through the rest of this day. Let the light You gave us this morning and the direction You have provided become strength for the road ahead Amen.Blessing: May Jesus renew your strength today, restore your hope and give you perseverance for everything still ahead. midday prayer for strength, prayer when you feel worn down, Christian prayer for renewal, Isaiah 40:31 prayer, prayer for perseverance, prayer when you are tired prayer, Jesus, renewal, strength, perseverance, hope, midday, faith, Christian, devotion A midday prayer for anyone feeling physically, emotionally or spiritually worn down.

What if following Jesus doesn't mean adding one more thing to your already busy day, but simply inviting Him into the life you're already living? The little things we do over and over can become holy habits that help us stay close to God and create a path that leads us—and the people around us—toward Jesus.

What if following Jesus doesn't mean adding one more thing to your already busy day, but simply inviting Him into the life you're already living? The little things we do over and over can become holy habits that help us stay close to God and create a path that leads us—and the people around us—toward Jesus.

Even ordinary tasks can feel overwhelming. Stress, grief, mistakes, uncertainty, and ongoing trials can leave you emotionally and spiritually exhausted, wondering how you’ll find the strength to keep going. Psalm 121 reminds us where our help comes from: the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. God does not expect us to pretend we’re okay or power through every difficult season on our own. When you’re too tired to pray, too overwhelmed to see clearly, or simply unsure how to take the next step, you can bring that weakness to Him. Jesus offers rest to those who are weary, and the Holy Spirit intercedes when we don’t have the words. Even in the darkest seasons, God remains near, providing the strength, peace, and help we need for whatever comes next. Highlights: What to do when you feel emotionally, physically, or spiritually worn down How Psalm 121 reminds us to look to God for help when life feels overwhelming Why God does not expect us to pretend we are okay or handle everything alone Finding rest in Jesus during seasons of exhaustion, stress, and hardship How the Holy Spirit helps us when we are too weak or tired to pray Why God’s presence remains with us even when we cannot feel or see Him Encouragement to trust God for the strength needed to take the next step Want more encouragement throughout your week?

My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” - Psalm 121:1-2 NIV There’s a song by Tenth Avenue North that inspired this devotional. A melancholy melody starts, then the opening lyrics say how tired and worn they feel. They have a heavy heart from all the hard work it takes just to continue breathing. The mistakes they’ve made are creating a dark cloud over their heads, and the weight of the world is crushing their soul. But they know that God can give them rest, so with all they have left, they muster up a cry to Him. The singer says he knows he needs to lift his eyes up to God and remember Him, trusting God to see him through these tough times, but he feels too weak to look up because the trials and storms of life won’t cease. But he knows God can give him what he needs, renew his mind, and restore the brokenness of his soul. So, though they don’t have the will or energy to fight, they have hope because they know God will fight for them. This reminds me of the Bible verse above (Psalm 121). It also reminds me of words by Ellie Mont that she posted to her Instagram page a while ago. Mont said, “God is not far from you right now. God is not asking you to perform or pretend or power through. God sees how tired you are. God knows the weight you are carrying. God understands the tears you do not even have the energy to cry anymore. Jesus said, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Rest does not mean everything suddenly feels better. Sometimes rest is simply permission to stop pretending you are okay. Sometimes rest is letting God sit with you in the dark instead of forcing yourself toward the light. You are not failing because you are tired. You are not unfaithful because you are overwhelmed. You are human. And God is gentle with humans who are worn down.” Isn’t it good to know that God is gentle with us when we feel worn down by life? As a person who suffers from chronic fatigue, I know what it’s like to feel tired. You can feel too tired to do simple tasks or exercise. Sometimes sleep doesn’t fix it. But I am grateful to know that God offers rest to me and everyone who needs it. Over the years, God has shown me that He knows what I need before I know, and He already has provision in place. And when we feel too tired to lift our eyes up to Him and send up prayers to Heaven about how we feel and what we need, we can trust that God’s Holy Spirit intercedes for us, saying to Him what we cannot as He helps us when we feel weak (Romans 8:26-27). Part of our human experience on Earth is to go through storms, trials, and tribulations. These elements and factors can make us weary. It can also obscure our view of God and really weaken our faith in Him when we cannot see Him nor sense His Presence in dark and challenging times. But the good news is that He is always here with us (Matthew 28:20). Jesus Christ is not just the light at the end of the dark tunnel; He is the light beside us and within us (1 John 4:4). Therefore, we have nothing to fear. We can rest knowing that Jesus will always be with us. He will give us what we need to take the next step (Proverbs 3:5-6), climb that mountain, take that leap of faith, and survive the storms of life. Next time you’re feeling worn down by life, go to God. Even if you cannot pray for a long time, simply saying “Jesus, help me” will suffice. And if you cannot even say those words silently or aloud, trust that God already heard the cry of your heart, and He will meet you in your time of need.

A three-part mini-series from The Bunker… The horror of the 9/11 terror attacks 25 years ago this week led America into massive retaliation and ultimately national humiliation in Afghanistan and Iraq. In years to come, these failures and the lies used to sell them would breed a paranoid, isolationist, racist strain that ultimately took over American politics. Did 9/11 ultimately create Trump and Trumpism? National security journalist Spencer Ackerman has reported from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo Bay and he's the author of Reign of Terror: How the 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump.

Meeting God in the EverydayFr. Luke Doyle joins Catholic Women Now to talk about his first book, Priest in the Wild: Stories of Meeting God in the Everyday, published by Ascension. Fr. Luke explains that he didn't write the book to tell readers how to be holy, but to invite them into the countless ways Jesus approaches us in ordinary moments. He names "self-made aloneness" as one of the great lies of the spiritual life — the assumption that we're on our own for most of the day — and reminds listeners that everyone who seeks will find. Holiness, he says, is simply living life with God: more about trusting, listening, and receiving than achieving.Childlike vs. ChildishMinistering at a large secular university, Fr. Luke sees young people crushed by a culture that says everything is permitted and nothing is forgiven — where identity gets reduced to a GPA, a body, or a social media metric. His response has been to teach them how to play in the Kingdom. Drawing on life as an uncle in a family of eight kids, he distinguishes childlikeness — trust, wonder, freedom, willingness to risk and to share — from childishness, the posture of "no" and "mine" and "I'll do it myself." He shares how a moment of prayer, framed by an unforgettable scene from Elf, awakened his own desire to be introduced to God the Father.Why Love Plays OffenseOne of the most talked-about chapters in the book comes from Matthew 16. Worn out from constantly defending the Church in a progressive campus environment, Fr. Luke brought his frustration to prayer — and Jesus pointed him to a single word: gates. Gates are defensive weapons. If the gates of hell will not prevail, then hell is the one playing defense. Love, by its nature, moves toward others. The Church isn't built to hold a line; she's sent on mission.Mary, the GOAT — and the Serpent-CrusherFr. Luke tells the story of calling Our Lady "the GOAT" in an Assumption homily and the parishioner who came at him ready for battle. His point: no one has trusted, listened to, and moved with God better than His own mother. He also shares his lifelong fear of snakes and the comfort of an image found in nearly every depiction of Mary — her heel on the serpent. His shorthand for handing her our fears: pray and squish.Spiritual Fatherhood and the Freedom of "Yes"With refreshing honesty, Fr. Luke describes discerning his vocation while begging the Lord not to call him to the priesthood, fearing celibacy would be a "no" to intimacy and fatherhood. In prayer, Jesus asked him a question that changed everything: Is marriage big enough for your heart? Five years ordained, he describes walking into a room and being father to every person in it — young or old — as the fulfillment his heart was actually made for.Lion StrengthFr. Luke closes with Narnia. Aslan — the lion who is the Christ figure of the series — calls the fearful forward and tells them to press into his mane, listen to his heartbeat, and receive his strength. That, Fr. Luke says, is exactly what the sacraments do. Christ the Lion of the tribe of Judah breathes on us in Holy Communion and Confession and sends us out as lions and lionesses to renew His Kingdom. His closing prayer and blessing are worth hearing to the end.Also in This EpisodeJulie opens the show with truth, beauty, and goodness from a recent trip to South Africa — vineyards, three oceans meeting, and elephants caring for their own — and how encountering God's creation half a world away reveals the same Father at work.Learn MoreGet Priest in the Wild from AscensionLearn more about Fr.

A new lifejacket rule passed just as boatie season is about to ramp up, is expected to save at least ten lives a year. Lifejackets will now need to be wron, not just carried, by everyone - adults and kids. The law applies to vessels six metres and under. Dr Shane Reti was behind the bill, and spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

I've made $40 million. Driven the supercars. Lived in the mansions. Worn the watches.None of that was the hard part.The how of making money is simple. Find a group of people, find the problem they have, solve it, sell the solution, do it 100 times. That's genuinely it.The hard part is getting yourself to actually do it.I spent my first 3-4 years as an entrepreneur convinced I was one piece of information away from success. One book, one niche, one offer. Shiny object syndrome. I know it intimately.What actually changed things wasn't a strategy. It was going back to being 11 and 12 years old, badly bullied at school, no friends, completely powerless to stop it. Carrying that into my late teens with no confidence and no girlfriend.That's where the need to get rich actually came from. Not ambition. A terror of ever feeling powerless again.Cold calling Australia at 5am from a freezing shed in December, getting told no over and over, was never hard for me. It was my escape.Motivation runs out.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders welcome Doug LaViolette. Doug is the founder of the Brian LaViolette Scholarship Foundation, and recently collaborated with Sheffield on a new watch that honors his late son, Brian, and raises money for the foundation named for him, which has awarded thousands of scholarships to students all over the world. Doug tells us the story of his son, what the foundation has accomplished and hopes to accomplish in the future, and of course all about the watch itself. Mostly though, this is a conversation about community, and the great ways that watches and the people in this hobby can accomplish worthwhile things.

Summary/IntroIn this episode of The Smart RVer Podcast, Eric Stark shares a recent experience that began with buying a boat and trailer and ended up changing the way he approaches RV repairs, hard-to-find parts, and the frustrations RV owners face when trying to keep older equipment on the road.The boat was in excellent condition, but the trailer was another story. Worn bearings, bad brakes, disconnected brake lines, aging axles, hard-to-find proprietary parts, and conflicting information from manufacturers and suppliers turned what looked like a simple purchase into a much bigger project.More importantly, the experience gave Eric a fresh perspective on what RV owners sometimes go through when they are told a part is discontinued, unavailable, or too difficult to identify. It also reinforced the importance of knowing your equipment, understanding the tools you carry, and developing enough basic mechanical knowledge to work through problems when they happen away from home.Eric also covers a quick late-summer RV air conditioner maintenance reminder, including checking filters and cleaning condenser and evaporator coils. And in RV Envy, he talks about Solbio Holding Tank Liquid and why it has been getting such positive feedback from RV owners.The big takeaway from this episode is simple: the more you understand your RV, your tools, and the systems you depend on, the better prepared you will be when something does not go according to plan.Show NotesIn this episode, Eric Stark shares a personal story that gave him a new appreciation for the frustrations RV owners experience when repairs are not straightforward, and replacement parts are difficult to find.It started with the purchase of a well-maintained boat in Seattle. The boat itself was in remarkable condition, but the trailer underneath it had been largely neglected. The tires were about ten years old, the wheel bearings were loose, the brakes were badly worn, and the brake lines were no longer functioning as they should.Rather than risk towing the boat hundreds of miles back to Montana, Eric left the boat and trailer behind, returned home, gathered the parts he thought he would need, and went back two weeks later to make the trailer roadworthy.That experience alone reinforced an important lesson: appearances do not tell the whole story. A trailer, RV, tow vehicle, or other piece of equipment can look excellent while still hiding serious mechanical problems beneath the surface.The bigger lesson came later.Once Eric started repairing and upgrading the trailer at home, he ran into proprietary axles, expensive replacement options, discontinued-looking components, conflicting information, and customer service that was not always willing to help him solve the problem.At one point, replacing the trailer entirely seemed easier than repairing it.Then a helpful trailer dealer changed the project's direction. Instead of simply selling Eric a new trailer, the dealer took the time to explain some practical alternatives, including converting the trailer from hydraulic surge brakes to electric brakes.That experience stood out because the dealer was willing to forgo a potential sale to help someone make a better decision.It also made Eric think about the calls he receives from RV owners who have already contacted multiple dealerships or parts departments and have been told that the part they need is unavailable.Sometimes the part really is gone.Other times, it is still available through another supplier, has been replaced by a newer version, or requires someone willing to spend a little extra time identifying an alternative.Eric explains how this experience has encouraged him to look even harder when helping RV owners find difficult parts. He has always tried to go the extra mile, but now he better understands how discouraging it can be when every phone call seems to lead to another dead end.The episode also highlights another important part of DIY RV ownership: knowing how to use the tools you carry.While repairing the trailer, Eric was reminded that simply owning a toolbox does not mean someone knows how to use what is inside it. RV owners do not need to become professional technicians, but becoming comfortable with basic hand tools, sockets, wrenches, electrical testing equipment, and simple repair procedures can make a huge difference when something goes wrong on the road.A little familiarity can help turn an emergency into a manageable repair.Eric encourages RV owners who are less comfortable with tools to practice at home. Learn what the tools are called, understand what they are used for, and spend some time looking at the systems on your own RV before you are forced to learn on the side of the highway.Quick Tip: Late-Summer RV Air Conditioner MaintenanceWith summer winding down, Eric also reminds you to check your RV air conditioner before the season is over.Start with the inside air filters. Dirty or clogged filters restrict airflow and can make the air conditioner work much harder than necessary.The rooftop condenser coil should also be checked and cleaned. Depending on the air conditioner, the evaporator coil may also be accessible for cleaning.Eric points out that RV air conditioner filters can become extremely dirty, especially after a summer filled with dust, smoke, pollen, and campground debris.Clean filters and coils can improve airflow, help the air conditioner perform better, and reduce unnecessary strain on the system.RV Envy: Solbio Holding Tank LiquidIn the RV Envy segment, Eric talks about Solbio Holding Tank Liquid.Solbio has been gaining traction with Highway 93 RV customers, and the feedback has been very positive. It offers RV owners another option for maintaining their black and gray holding tanks without relying on the heavily perfumed approach found in many traditional holding tank treatments.Eric encourages RV owners who have not tried Solbio to take a look and see why it has become such a popular product among customers.The Bigger LessonThe trailer project turned into more than a repair job.It became a reminder that owning an RV, boat, trailer, or tow vehicle means continually learning about the equipment you depend on.Parts change.Manufacturers discontinue components.Suppliers give conflicting answers.Repairs sometimes cost more than expected.And occasionally, fixing an older piece of equipment makes more sense than replacing it.The more you know about your RV, the systems inside it, and the tools needed to maintain it, the easier it becomes to work through those problems without immediately reaching the point where you want to give up on the RV altogether.RV ownership is a learning process.Every repair, every breakdown, and every frustrating parts search teaches you something that can make the next problem easier to handle.Solbio - Holding Tank Liquid Coupon Code "Solbio10"3X Chemistry - RV AC Foaming Coil CleanerSunpro Mfg RV Slide Out Fabrics - Use Discount Code "5 Percent Discount"Wholesale RV Extended WarrantiesMiller Marine Orofino Idaho - The Helpful Boat GuyDemco- Surge Brake, Couplers and Other Good StuffContact Us via our Website or Phone or Text us @ 406-961-8688Our Online Resources: The Smart Rver YouTube Channel - Check Out Our No-Nonsense YouTube VideosSunpro Mfg - RV Sunshade, Windshield Covers & Slide Out Awning FabricsHot Boat Ropes - Marine Cordage- Anchor Lines, Dock Lines, Tow Lines, etc.Top Rated Podcast - The Smart RVer Podcast WebsiteCompanies mentioned in this episode:Wholesale WarrantiesHighway 93 RVSunpromfg.comEZ Loader Trailers

https://eggshelltherapy.com/podcast-blog/2026/08/27/travis/Many intense people have a high level of moral sensitivity. I wrote about this elsewhere before, but basically, they see something cruel or careless and cannot just move on from it the way other people seem to. They often lie awake thinking about whether they are doing enough, whether what they are doing even counts, and whether there is any point in trying when the world does not seem to care whether they try or not. They hold themselves to standards that others think are too high, and when they fall short, they feel extremely guilty. They try to honour their values, but then they watch the news and have to hold themselves back from despair. After long enough, they start to wonder whether the whole thing is a trap they built for themselves.In this conversation, I want us to see what we can learn from a moral philosopher who has spent his career working out how ordinary humans like us can try to do good even when it seems pointless at times. Travis Rieder teaches bioethics at Johns Hopkins and wrote a book called Catastrophe Ethics.  He holds that some people are purists;  once they find out they are part of something harmful, they get themselves out of it. Others are nihilists, and they think that when the problem is this big, nothing they do counts, so there is nothing they owe anybody. Travis has watched many students come in as purists, wear themselves out, and leave as nihilists. We also talk about the role of religion in all of this.  Travis says that if God could have commanded torture and that would have made torture right, the commands are not worth much, and if God commands things because they are already right, then you can work out what is right without him. Travis's thesis is that you have no duty to cut your carbon footprint, but you have good reasons to.What he leaves us with is this: sit down every so often and work out where our time and our money and our energy should go, because that is what gives our lives meaning.Eggshell Therapy and Coaching: eggshelltherapy.com/Imi Lo:  imiloimilo.comSister Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3Zcl8ZUsu4AePugDoWtXcgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eggshelltransformationsNewsletters: https://eepurl.com/bykHRzDisclaimers: https://www.eggshelltherapy.com/disclaimers  Trigger Warning: This episode may cover sensitive topics including but not limited to suicide, abuse, violence, severe mental illnesses, relationship challenges, sex, drugs, alcohol addiction, psychedelics, and the use of plant medicines.

You ever notice how your worst decisions show up right when you're running on empty?  Tired. Stressed. Worn down. And in that moment, you tell yourself it's no big deal…you can handle it.  That's not strength. That's exactly when you're most exposed.  In this 5-Minute Drill episode of Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™, J.R. breaks down why temptation isn't random. This episode targets a specific window of vulnerability and gives you a simple 3-step strategy to defend it. He shares the story of one of the darkest seasons of his own life, a nearly four-year stretch where exhaustion and isolation led him into the worst decisions he's ever made…and the wake-up call that turned it all around.  This episode is about one powerful truth: The enemy doesn't need you to be evil. He just needs you to be exhausted. So stop waiting until you're already depleted to defend yourself. Start recognizing your danger zones before they cost you everything. In this episode, you'll hear: Why your worst decisions cluster around fatigue, stress, and isolation…and what that reveals about how temptation actually works. J.R.'s personal story of the darkest season of his life, and the isolation that nearly cost him his marriage, career, and life. The research on sleep deprivation and decision-making, and why your prefrontal cortex essentially goes offline when you're exhausted. How chronic stress and cortisol impair memory, weaken your immune system, and erode emotional regulation. King David's downfall in 2 Samuel, and how an idle, isolated king became vulnerable to the decision that defined his legacy. Why isolation, not weakness, is the enemy's favorite setup. The 3-step Drill to recognize your Danger Zones and defend against them before they devour you. What you'll walk away with… You'll learn how to: Identify your personal dangerzones…the conditions and circumstances that make you most vulnerable to bad decisions. Build a daily check-in practice to pause, reflect, and catch exposure before it becomes a crisis. Reframe isolation as the real threat, not a sign of strength. Stay connected to 1-2 people you can call for anything…before you need them, not after. Show up more alert, more guarded, and more ready to play offense in your career, leadership, and home.

“Why do some of us experience Christianity as a burden and others as a refuge? The answer, I am convinced, has to do with grace. Grace is the Big Relief at the heart of Christianity. When grace is down-played or qualified, faith turns into a project and then a burden. Project religion - the ancient human enterprise of proving ourselves morally and spiritually worthy of God's love - is everywhere. When anchored to grace, however, Christianity remains good news. More than that, faith becomes a source of energy rather than a drain.” - an excerpt from The Big ReliefToday I'm excited to talk about one of my favorite books of the year. As I've mentioned a few times on this podcast, I've been on a bit of a grace kick lately. Grace was something I knew about, but honestly hadn't spent a whole ton of time considering. It's just the last few months though that I've really been sitting with grace and seeing just how beautiful, how important it is. So imagine my excitement when I saw a book about the urgency of grace in a worn-out world - right up my alley! And imagine how happy I was to start reading this book and seeing how good and funny it was. So today I'm thrilled to have on David Zahl, author of many books including The Big Relief. In this conversation, David and I talk about what makes grace stand out, the vertical and horizontal nature of grace, the difference between grace and mercy, how the church can be better beacons of grace, how to start living a grace first life today, and much more. Doable Discipleship is a podcast produced and hosted by Jason Wieland. Resources Related to This Episode:https://www.amazon.com/Big-Relief-Urgency-Grace-Worn-Out/dp/1587435578Subscribe to the Doable Discipleship podcast at Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/doable-discipleship/id1240966935) or Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/1Zc9nuwQZOLadbFCZCmZ1V)Episode first released August 2025

Your Prayers Are Never Wasted 1 John 5:14–15 “And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him.” I love this verse because God is reminding us that we can trust Him. He reminds us that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. If we know that He hears us, then we know we have obtained the requests we made of Him. I don't know about you, but I can get caught up in the words "according to His will." I have asked the Lord for many things that I don't think He has given me. It can be frustrating when we pray for someone or ask for something we believe is good, and it seems like God isn't listening. I know God's ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are greater than our thoughts, but that doesn't always make it easier to understand. If you've ever struggled with this, let me share what has helped me. Have you ever had a child, niece, nephew, or friend's child ask for something they were convinced they needed? They had thought it through and believed it was the best thing for them, but you could see it wasn't because you knew where that choice would lead. For example, imagine a teenager begging to drop out of school because they're tired of the work and already have a job lined up. They think it's the best decision, but you know it will limit so many opportunities in the future. Because you love them, you say no. I think this is often how God answers our prayers. Good thing He doesn't give us everything we ask for because, just like children, we sometimes ask for things that aren't truly good for us. We think we know what we want, but God sees the whole picture. We may pray for a new job, only to later discover that job would have required constant travel or an unhealthy work environment. God protects us from countless things we never even know about because He is a good Father. I heard a song on the way to Adoration this morning—and you know how much I love songs. It's called "Somebody Prayed" by Crowder. The song is all about the power of prayer and reminds us that many of the blessings we experience today are the result of someone faithfully praying for us. It also reminds us that God hears every prayer, even when we don't immediately see the results. The song begins: Every night there by your bed You fold your hands and bow your head Throwing out another prayer in faith When you're wondering if He's hearing you Look at me, I'm living proof I'm only right where I am today Because somebody prayed These lyrics remind us that when we pray and do not see results, we can look at those around us and be confident that if God answers their prayers, He will answer ours, too. I think it is vital to remember that the answers to our prayers may not look like we want them to and may not come in the timing we want them to. I like how Crowder can realize that the reason he is where he is today is because his mom prayed for him a lot. So I hit my knees 'cause I've Seen all Heaven move (don't matter if you hit rock bottom My God pick you up when you call Him.) I pray, "Father, please" 'cause I've Seen what He can do (don't matter if the storm cloud coming My God come through when you call Him) I love this verse too because it says that it doesn't matter if you hit rock bottom because God will pick you up when you call Him. This reminds us that we are never too far down for God to pick us back up again. It also says it doesn't matter if the storm cloud is coming because God will come through when we call Him. Crowder says he has seen all heaven move, and he has seen what our heavenly Father can do. You might be in a storm right now, or you might be at your lowest point yet. Either way, you can rest assured that when you call on the Lord, He is going to answer that call. He is going to lift you up out of that pit or get you safely through that storm. That is just who He is. If you wonder if this is true, look around you at all the people you know who are struggling, or the ones who were struggling and have made it through to the other side.  They were not alone. God helped them, and if he helped them, he can help you too! These hands have no power There ain't an hour He don't come through That's why when mountains move, I say "Looks like somebody prayed” This verse is reminding us that we can do nothing without God. He is our source of power. He is our Savior. This is why, when something amazing happens in our lives, we should automatically know that someone was praying for us. Our default should be to thank God and to thank whoever was praying for us. Sometimes we think that because we didn't pray, then it wasn't God who helped us. However, there are so many people praying all the time. There were many saints who would send up prayers for anyone who needed them. Or they would pray for those who had no one else to pray for them. You might have a whole army of people praying for you, and yet you might not even know it. For instance, when someone asks me for prayer I usually ask my parents to also pray for them because I know my parents are mighty prayer warriors. I also ask my prayer group to pray, my Encounter Ministry fellow students, and the prayer line at my church. Then sometimes I would also add their request to these three online prayer requests websites, one of which is the Lourdes website. Do you see how someone could have a whole army of people praying for them and not even know it? For the child of God that's far from home The one who thinks they're too far gone I'm throwing out another prayer in faith (prayer in faith) Worn-out altars, tear-stained pews Still I won't give up on you I believe that anything can change When somebody prays I love this verse because he is talking to anyone who feels like they are far from home. Anyone who feels like they are too far gone. Then he tells them that he is praying for them. We all need to be praying for those who are far from home and think they are too far gone. There is no too far gone with the Lord. He is always willing to take us back. He is always waiting for us to realize that and to come home. I love it when he says he won't give up on us because he believes that anything can change when somebody prays. This is an important thing for us all to believe. It is so true. Anything can change when somebody prays. The enemy often tries to make us believe that our situation is too bad and that there is no solution. He tries to convince us that we don't need to pray because there isn't anything God can do for anyone. There isn't anything anyone can do. This is ridiculous! God can do anything! We might not see a way out, we might not think things can get better, but God can always make a way, even when we can't see how. It is always worth it to say a prayer. It can make all the difference in the world. Sometimes God is just waiting for you to ask. He is waiting for you to invite Him into it all. Why wouldn't we want God to be in all of it? I've seen miracles come from feeble words I've seen hospital rooms turned into cathedrals I've seen freedom come to the prisoner You can't tell me that prayer don't work The first line says, “I've seen miracles come from feeble words.” Do you know why I love this? I love it because it reminds us that we don't have to know what to say. We don't have to pray these long, eloquent prayers. We don't have to ask for the exact thing or say the exact right words in order for our prayers to be answered. It's not like in all those movies about making a wish on a genie in a bottle. If you don't get the wording perfectly, then something bad happens. God is not like that. We don't have to know the perfect thing to say. We just have to call upon his name and ask him for what we want. It goes on to say, “I've seen hospital rooms turned into cathedrals.” I think what he means by this is that hospital rooms can be a powerful place for prayer. Sitting by a loved one's bedside can prompt people to pray more. It can also help us to be bold and ask for more from the Lord. Desperation to save our loved ones can be a powerful motivator. He also says, I've seen freedom come to the prisoner.  This is another great result of prayer. You might know someone who is stuck in their past. They may be an actual prisoner in jail, or they may be a prisoner to guilt, shame, and unforgiveness. Either way, prayers can free them from their prison. I have seen it happen many times!! The song ends with: So every night there by your bed When you fold your hands and bow your head Not a single word you've ever said in vain 'Cause He hears everything I like this verse too because it reminds us that not a single word you've ever said is in vain. When we pray to God, He hears us. We can be confident in this, just as the scripture verse for today reminds us. God hears it all, whether you are in church praying or you are crying out to him in your car. Wherever you are, no matter how far gone you think you are, He always hears every word of it, and none of it was said in vain. He hears you, and He will answer your prayers according to his will and according to His timing. www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

For our cultural predictions roundup back in January, the musician and technologist Trevor McFedries predicted that 2026 was going to be a really good year—professionally speaking—for people with good taste. The jury's still out, but it's definitely turning into a big year for talking about taste. And for the first time in history, the tech world seems to be leading the charge, from engineers penning essays about how “personal taste” is the new moat, to startups promising us more aesthetically discerning AI, to the Palantir chore coat and tech billionaires sitting front row at Fashion Week.To make sense of why taste has become such a Silicon Valley buzzword—and what that tells us about the changing meaning and role of taste more broadly–we brought on Drew Austin, a writer and urban planner who runs the excellent Substack, Kneeling Bus, where he recently penned a piece called “Tastecore and the Enclosure of the Commons.” We discuss Drew's research on the tech world's changing relationship to fashion in the post-pandemic era, the growing epidemic of “tasteslop,” and how the current discourse frames taste as something less about personal distinction and more about gaining a competitive edge. Plus, we tap Pierre Bourdieu to try to parse the evolving function of taste in society over time—and what the tech industry's taste obsession can tell us about the shifting landscape of class and class antagonism.Follow Drew at Kneeling Bus on Substack.Read Drew on taste:“Tastecore and the enclosure of the commons”“Worn out: Tech elites' supposed indifference to fashion is a contempt for the commons” (Real Life)“Here comes a regular: Taste is obsolete & gatekeeping is code for what the internet took from us”“Bots in the beerlight: Sometimes embodiment is all you've really got”“Lo-fi beats for studying: How to push more through the human attention bottleneck”Additional references:“Taste is Eating Silicon Valley” by Anu Atluru (Working Theories)“Personal Taste is the Moat” by Wang Cong“Tasteslop: Notes on technological anxiety” by Emily Segal (Nemesis) This is a public episode.
