They Left Town

LYRICS:
Born through struggle, a rising flame,
Hurt and healing, never the same.
But every fall taught you to grow,
To stand again, to let strength show.

They called you broken, said you were lost,
But never saw what your fight had cost.
In silent tears, you learned to rise,
A quiet strength behind your eyes.

Pieces of hope, rising from pain,
Through every storm, you've danced in the rain.
Every scar, a lesson in light,
Built from the dark, you shine through the night.

Words like daggers, echoes of shame,
But you held tight to your own name.
The fire burned, but you stayed true,
And now you stand, not just for one—but for the few.

You saw the edge, but chose to stay,
Carved your path, found your own way.
And in the cracks, a new light grew,
A voice that whispers: "So can you."

Pieces of hope, rising from pain,
Through every storm, you've danced in the rain.
Every scar, a lesson in light,
Built from the dark, you shine through the night.

To those who’ve felt too lost to try,
Whose tears have flooded every sky,
Know you’re not broken—just being made,
Into someone who will never fade.

Pieces of hope, rising from pain,
Through every storm, you've danced in the rain.
Every scar, a lesson in light,
Built from the dark, you shine through the night.

So here you stand, not just survived,
But breathing proof that you’ve thrived.
Hold on tight, don’t let go,
The world needs your light more than you know.

Dr. Asa's Nutrient Tips

In our journey of faith, we often encounter moments of weakness that challenge our spiritual resolve. This message delves deep into the transformative power of God's grace, drawing inspiration from the Apostle Paul's words in 2 Corinthians 12. We're reminded that our weaknesses are not obstacles, but opportunities for God's strength to shine through us. The story of Gideon in Judges 6 beautifully illustrates how God chooses the unlikely and empowers the weak to accomplish great things. This teaching encourages us to embrace our vulnerabilities, viewing them as invitations for divine intervention rather than limitations. As we navigate life's challenges, we're called to shift our focus from self-sufficiency to God-dependency, allowing His grace to become our source of strength. This perspective not only transforms our personal struggles but also equips us to be powerful witnesses of God's love and mercy in a world desperately in need of hope.

Discovering Strength in Weakness

LYRICS

A land is scarred, by dust and fire,
Homes reduced to ashes, dreams turned dire,
A mother’s wail, a child’s lost face,
Buried beneath a world disgraced.

Oh, can you hear them? 
The voices so strong,
Bound by borders but yearning to belong,
Their cries are rivers, their pain a flood,
Seeking justice in a land of blood, fear, famine

Children grow with hardened eyes,
Learning to fear the open skies,
For every dawn, a new despair,
As peace seems but a whispered prayer.

Oh, can you hear them? 
The voices so strong,
Bound by borders but yearning to belong,
Their cries are rivers, their pain a flood,
Seeking justice in a land of blood, fear, famine

But even in shadows, hope survives,
In songs and stories of stolen lives,
A land of scars, but hearts so brave,
One day, may they rise beyond the grave.

Can you Here Them!

Can you hear them!

The Sacred Unfolding to Heal Yoni from Trauma

Police officer by day, power lifter when off duty, he just recently lifted or bench pressed 656 pounds! That's a new record at the competition he was at in Birmingham - the World Police and Fire Games. How does that strength fit into his law enforcement job? What's his training and meals look like? How can the rest of us have a similar "never satisifed" mindset in the gym?


(2:50) Sgt Garrett Williams, a 17 year veteran of the Columbus Police Dept (in GA), talks about the excitement of winning gold at that world event, but he quickly was like "What's next?" We also discuss how he started getting into power lifitng as a "short fat kid" in middle school.


(9:42) Being big and strong can also be a valuable weapon as a police officer, as the Sgt explains. Along with the exercise culture at CPD, he also gives details about food intake - which, for him, can be as a much as 6,800 calories per day. That number is dropping quite a bit lately, to drop some weight off his 390 pound frame. What are his go-to and cheat foods? (15:45) Garrett also gets into how often he goes to the gym, hours put in at Body Evolution in Columbus...pain involved with all the training...benefits of working out with other strongmen...why he enjoys the gym culture so much...struggles he's faced over a dozen years of consistently power lifting.


(23:57) Back in May, he also placed 1st in the super heavyweight division, winning Georgia Strongest Man, but now is kinda retiring from most competitions. It's about the journey! That journey included playing college football...and now getting cheered on by his fellow police officers, receiving messages from around the world after his 656 pound record in a video that's gone somewhat viral, and a supportive wife (their 14th wedding anniversary on that competition day).


After a little about his police job and how he may rep the force in Australia in 2027 to try and break his own record, (35:56) Garrett gives us insight into the mental toughness aspect of power lifting - subconsciously going inward with muffled sounds, when he's getting hyped up to lift - and resilience, bravery needed for police work too. Again, big congrats to Sgt Williams! Follow him on instagram to see amazing lifting videos at gwill_world_class. And closing out the episode in prayer.

Fun Fact: 

"Pictureplane"(Travis Egedy), is a popular artist known for making his come up in the electronic music scene, DIY Venues, also popular for hanging around artists like "Grimes" and "Crystal Castles" in the early come up days of these artist, he is also the one who came up with the word "Witch House" which is a playful word on "House" music, though "Witch House" is now a popular music genre that is enjoyed by many.

"Crystal Castles" are actually one of the very first, if not the first electronic music duo to actually invent "Witch House" music, as you can hear dark beats and sorrow drawn out voices off of some of their early (demo songs/ Demo Album) dating back from "2007" and before that, which is crazy to think since during that time "Witch House" did not have a name for itself yet.
