We are in a period in American, and indeed global, history where the Teutonic struggle of capitalism and socialism are being played out.

Emotional Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt Welcome to the Emotional Path where we’re going to be discussing an issue that I’ve dealt with for many years, in fact decades. Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt..

The 8th Law.. The Law of Supe atural Supply There have been many times in my life when I was convinced I had no more to give. No more money, no more time, no more empathy, no more love. Well, in each of these times, I found that I was given the strength to go on over and above my own means. This is representative of the 8th law of stewardship; God enables the giver to give beyond their ability to give!
The Problem of Positive Thinking I just heard a podcast by my good friend Steve Beaman on the topic of positive thinking made popular 50+ years ago by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale. I was taken back to my twenties and the reading of this book. I found the principles made sense. However, something was missing. At the time I couldn’t identify that something but I believe I can now and even act upon it.

As the father of six children, I frequently am asked this very deep question as it relates to moral values “who says it’s wrong?” This profound question can be applied to virtually every behavior whenever we think of the concept of “good” versus “evil”. When I grew up many years ago, the parental retort was typically a very simple “I did”, strongly stated from both Mothers and Fathers. And that was the end of the discussion.

My friends, for many years now I’ve been recommending that folks just like you hold a small percent of their net worth in actual gold or silver coins. With the myriad of issues now going on in Washington, in State Capitals, and even in cities, I want to revisit this and offer you solid logic behind the acquisition of gold for a percentage of your assets.

Swimming and running present two very different exercise modalities in terms of biomechanics, energy expenditure, and stresses, not to mention that they occur in two very unique environments. However that hasn't prevented humans from becoming particularly adept at both of these activities, which makes sense given the geographic distribution of human populations, think of it as either running or swimming to get to something or to get away from something else.

It seems that increasingly, a holiday once thought of as cheerful and joyful is increasingly loaded with people’s feelings of sadness and depression. Why is this, and what can be done about it? Hi, I’m Steve Beaman and welcome to the Emotional Path!
My friends, it’s difficult if not impossible to judge the total impact of a piece of legislation that is over 2,000 pages long. In fact, I think it’s fair to say that no one fully understands the both intended and unintended consequences of legislation that is so enormous. I have read many parts of the bill and therefore have some semblance of an understanding of what it means, but I, by no means, would claim to have a full and complete understanding of all that is in there. This much can be said I think, the direct outcomes of the bill have four major impacts:

A Question I Had To Answer! http://tinyurl.com/A-Question-To-AnswerWelcome to this SBG Cast on the Spiritual Path. As we’ve said before, this is the most sensitive and personal path we walk, and we must each be thoughtful as we stay true to our beliefs, while not being disrespectful or contentious to those who don’t share them. In my walk down this path, I have struggled for years with the question “What do I do with Jesus?” Christianity today has been almost subdivided into what I think of as “Cultural Christianity” versus “Evangelical Christianity”. Let me explain.

http://tinyurl.com/What-Happened-to-Public-School Welcome to this SBG Cast on the Intellectual Path. You know, I have so many discussions with people about the sad situation in our public schools.

What is the cause of the problems in our schools today?
