Jacobs Ladder Podcast

We aren't always honest about how difficult normal human life is. In this 2nd part of a 2 part interview, we discuss that for the majority of people, sorrow, despair, anxiety, and mental illness are everyday experiences. While we have made tremendous advancements in therapy and psychiatry, the burden of living still comes down to mundane choices that we each must make—like the daily choice to get out of bed. In this deeply personal essay, Alan Noble considers the unique burden of everyday life in the modern world. Sometimes, he writes, the choice to carry on amid great...

Are We Doing Church Wrong with Jason Pierce-JL227

Jacobs Ladder Podcast

For professional management: [email protected] You teach classes on having a vision for your life and it struck both of us as we were talking recently that you don’t hear this message about casting a vision for your life, often if ever in the Christian church. Why do you think that is? What are the consequences of this, I.e. how is this lack of direction from church messaging on vision affecting the way we “do” Church as well as the way we as believers live our lives outside the church? How might Christianity be different if this dynamic were to change? Is this Biblical? If not,...

Nikola Jokic vs Ray Kroc

Nikola defers to his teamates when interviewed, rather than taking credit he always says "It's a team effort" and when he was asked about the MVP trophy for the Western Conference Finals he said "this means nothing". I also noticed the way he engages with others, there seems to be a genuine playful friendship and mutual respect with those he works with.

Watched Founders about McDonalds "founder" Ray Kroc.

He divorced his wife to marry someone more ambitious, he treated the McDonalds brothers poorly and went back on his word about paying them royalties, and he was an alcoholic and very self centered and selfish and prideful.

Unfortunately, I recognized some of Ray Kroc in my earlier life, and I have to be careful to check some of these traits now. I used to be very into self-help and Ray would listen to speakers talk about the power of persistence but they weren't talking about doing things in a Biblical way. Ray was a Billionaire and successful by the world's standards, but if his legacy is accurately depicted by this movie, he's not someone I want to emulate.

Better meetings

· Purpose — The “why” behind the meeting. Start with a verb.

· Participants — Who should be there? If a person won’t have an active role, don’t invite them.

· Agenda & Approach — The format and order of discussion. If a topic doesn’t contribute to the meeting results, leave it out.

· Results / Outcomes — What should be different when you are done?
