✨ Show Notes — Episode 591: A Year of Flourishing: A Thanksgiving Prelude to 2026 ✨As 2025 comes to a close, this episode invites you to slow down, breathe, and say the words our hurried world forgets: “Thank You, Lord.” 🙏Last year we prayed for Flourishing in 2025—not worldly success, but the deep, Kingdom-rooted flourishing that comes only through Jesus Christ. 🌿✨ And now, at the year’s end, we declare it openly: God has been faithful.I share a personal testimony inspired by Mike Reid’s lyric, “I don’t have it all, but I got enough… ’cause I got a life I love.” ❤️ God has given my family a year of love, provision, and protection. But this episode is also for those who faced loss, illness, discouragement, or hardship in 2025. 🌧️💔 Even in shadowed valleys, God was near—quiet strength, timely encouragement, grace for one more step. 🌄🎯 CALL TO ACTION: Before January 1, get a sheet of paper and write numbers 1–10. Pray… then list ten things you’re grateful for from 2025—small or big—that reveal God’s faithful hand. ✍️✨ This simple practice will steady your heart and prepare your soul for a new year of grace.🌅 Because we don’t enter 2026 empty-handed— we carry our testimonies with us.Join me on New Year’s Day for a special Episode #1 of 2026! 🎉📅📱 Connect with Us: 💻 Website: gwot.rocks home page  📺 YouTube: "Other Things with...

🎄✨ Step back into the glow of classic Christmas America as we revisit the incredible real story behind It’s a Wonderful Life — the 1946 “flop” that became the most beloved Christmas movie of all time. 🌟📺Discover how three legendary directors took a bold stand for creative freedom, only to see their dream collapse… and how a simple clerical mistake decades later turned George Bailey, Clarence the angel, and the town of Bedford Falls into an annual Christmas tradition. 🎬❄️🔔In this episode, you’ll remember why this film still moves us: because its world was shaped by a culture that still prayed, still sang carols, still helped neighbors, and still knew whose birthday Christmas celebrates. 🙏🎶👶✨As you watch George run through the snow shouting “Merry Christmas!” you’re not just watching a movie — you’re remembering a time when Christmas pointed clearly to Christ. And maybe… you’re feeling Heaven get just a little closer. ❤️❄️So plug in the lights, warm up the cocoa, and gather the family. This Christmas, let Bedford Falls remind you of the wonder, hope, and Light that came into the world named Jesus. 🌟🎁👑 🎄✨Side note: Paramount ultimately regained control of "Its A Wonderful Life". Its along and complex story...just beware- YOU CAN NOT USE ANY PART OF THE MOVIE without Paramount consent. Companies who made copies of the movie before Paramount regained control can sell remaining stock.📱 Connect with Us: 💻 Website: gwot.rocks home page  📺 YouTube: "Other Things with...
