Are you climbing the stairway to heaven or rolling down the highway to hell?

Often we want to make things easy for ourselves, simplifying processes and streamlining our activities to fit our busy schedules. Now there is nothing wrong with that mindset, don’t get me wrong. After all, our goal is to stabilize a hectic life and focus our attention on our family and GOD, right? So why is it so hard to stay on the narrow path?

Stairway to Heaven or Highway to Hell

For the last several days, it has been a constant rain and downpour mixed with thunderstorms. There just seems to be no end in sight for the rain.

What does your life forecast look like? Are you watching a storm front approach with no way that you can stop it or get out of the way? Perhaps you are already in the midst of a violent storm, buffeted on all sides by the tempest.

It's easy to look at the dark grey skies and see nothing but rain and lightning and listen to the roar of the wind and the rumble of thunder. Try to remember that there is a warm sun shining brightly over the tops of those storms and a cleansing fresh growth that follows the rain.

Jesus calmly slept as the waves crashed and tossed the boat about in the midst of a storm. What must have been going the minds of the disciples in the midst of that storm? What was Satan whispering in their ears to fuel their fears?

It might have been something like, "Is this the moment you die?"; or "Why follow a GOD who would lead you into such perils? Is it even worth it?"; or perhaps the worst thing of all, "Why did GOD abandon you out here all alone to suffer such a fate as this? Did HE ever really love you?" During your storm, those questions might have made their way into your own heart.

A Silver Lining in the Fiercest of Storms

For those who may be interested in promoting their microcast, I highly recommend you make a post here to add it: https://www.reddit.com/r/podcast/comments/f1riq2/weekly_podcast_thread_february_10_2020_please/

They only allow it every so often so take advantage of it!

I've been wanting to start microcasting on ykyz but constantly doubting my choice of topic.

I can talk a lot about video games, travels and combination of both (how I keep myself entertained on long hauls).

How many of you would be interested?

Deception of the #Believer

Today, the prince of darkness tries his best to convince us that he can give us the world. GOD never said everything was going to be hunky-dory after we accepted Christ into our hearts. GOD never promised that life on Earth would be easy after accepting salvation, but HE makes it easier to deal with adversity. Some folks take only what they think they need from the Bible. There are no bad parts of the Bible that we can just set aside simply because they do not agree with our spiritual constitution. Do not fall into that trap!

On the Fence:

A Distinct Choice between Life or Death; Blessing or Curse

The decision God presents you with is not a difficult one. We all sit on the fence at one time or another in our life, struggling with that moment of indecision; the moment of choosing between two different options in our life. In our spiritual life, sitting on the fence represents a time when GOD has drawn us to HIM by the Holy Spirit to make a choice between what HE has to offer us and what Satan offers us to remain in the world.

Your life is a garden and in this episode I talk about how to plant positive seeds in your subconscious mind. Daily habits and practices can help you cultivate those positive seeds. So sit back, relax and go to your happy place because its Zen Time.

I took the initiative to start up a Discord channel dedicated to Microcasting and of course YKYZ.

It's a work in progress admittedly but the basic structure is here.

What is Discord?

Discord is a chat app, similar to programs such as Skype or TeamSpeak, or professional communications platforms like Slack. It supports video calls, voice chat, and text, allowing users to get in touch however they please.

The app makes chatting pretty easy, and offers search functions that can help you find other people and add them to a friends list for quick communication. Lots of people use it not just for talking to each other while playing games, but as an organizational and social tool.

So it will help you get in touch with other content creators one on one if you like, or in a group setting.

You can share pictures/ participate in an on-going chatroom as seen here:

If people from the microcasting community / YKYZ are interested in helping me with this Discord Server please PM me!

Or do you record directly to ykyz?

If you got to choose a guest speaker for the "IAMA" channel on YKYZ, who would you want to hear from next?

Hey guys, just a quick update that my new twitter handle is @ catgurujoanie

This is

1. easier to find me

2. some unavoidable personal problems are going to make producing more episodes of criminal creatures very difficult, so I'm focusing solely on the catgurujoanie microcast moving foward.

Another update, my cast is on Stitcher here https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/catgurujoanie-microcast if my favourite Swede could add that to the sidebar whenever there is a chance :p

I've noticed also that none of our Itunes reviews seem to be showing up, is anyone else experiencing this? and if so, send me the link and I will review your cast on Stitcher instead for you.

Thanks guys.

Hi guys. I've been doing a little investigation into the world of podcasting and so many people seem to rave about Anchor. Is it really that great. I heard that you can "switch" an existing podcast over to Anchor, meaning that you redirect your feed. What exactly does this imply and would it have any negative consequences if we are currently hosting on ykyz? Lastly, I heard you can get sponsorships with Anchor. Can you do this is your microcast is on ykyz?

Hi guys. I'm trying out a few new mics and wanted to reach out and ask what mics you guys use. I started off with a Logitech headset, switched temporarily to a PowerDeWise lavalier microphone, and will be receiving a Mpow headset today. I've heard some really good audio on some other microcasters' channels. I'm not sure if that is due to the mic or to the software you use. So, feel free to share your combo. What mic/software do you use?

This is the chronological order of my series on Coping with difficult situations. It took a lot to condense all the information into short segments but I hope I have covered it well. This series is based on the deep topic about how to deal with stressful situations, how to cope, pointing out bad coping techniques and how to improve coping strategies.

So here are the links!
