Most Christians don’t expect their deepest wounds to come from inside the church, but for Elizabeth Bennett McKinney, that’s exactly what happened. Bullied by fellow believers starting at age 12, with rumors spreading through two churches and three schools, she walked away from church, turned against God, and battled social anxiety, depression, and PTSD. In this episode, Elizabeth joins Robert Plank to explain why what many dismiss as “church drama” or “bullying” is actually abuse, how Satan, not other Christians is the real enemy, and how naming church hurt is the first step toward healing. https://youtu.be/_2CdxmZbFZg Elizabeth lays out what church hurt looks like in real life, emotional, mental, physical, and even sexual harm in Christian settings, and how gossip, slander, and unresolved conflict quietly tear congregations apart.

Allen joins Robert Plank to talk about Kobo and Kobo’s Children, a series where humans are kept as pets by towering reptilian aliens called Grobs, then forced into slavery on a distant mining world.

Would we accept everything without words to question it? https://youtu.be/lrTx-0eNIvI Richard also teases the upcoming third book, where Earth explorers discover these “pet humans” and bring them back to an Earth 40,000 years in the future thanks to near-light-speed travel and Einstein’s time

When lifelong churchgoers Sean Walsh and Don Roth dug deep into Scripture, original languages, and biblical chronology, they became convinced that much of mainstream Christianity rests on three major errors. In this episode, they join Robert Plank to unpack their book The Three Pillars of False Doctrine and explain why they believe the traditional Friday death / Sunday resurrection, the popular form of the Trinity doctrine, and the modern idea of church as a building or organization all fail the test of the Bible itself. Drawing on Don’s work creating a day‑by‑day Biblical calendar from Genesis forward and Sean’s “Unlock the Word” ministry, they walk through key passages on the Sabbath, the Godhead, and church, and show how translation choices and tradition have shaped what most believers assume is “just Christianity.” https://youtu.be/UZtbz-o-uIE Rather than asking anyone to join a new denomination, Sean and Don challenge listeners to be Bereans checking every sermon, creed, and holiday against Scrip

When a four‑and‑a‑half‑year‑old girl terrified of the dark met Jesus as her “secret friend,” it set in motion a lifetime journey that would eventually become a book.

When a devoted wife and mother found herself trapped in a cycle of infidelity, violence, and fear shot at in broad daylight, run over by her own car, grieving her father’s sudden death she turned to the only constant she had left: God.

In this conversation, Denise opens up about living with a gambling, cheating husband, enduring physical and emotional trauma, and the moment she realized that praying wasn’t just for crises it had to become her way of life. She explains how daily prayer, morning and night, carried her through divorce, danger, and financial struggle, and how God’s protection over her and her children revealed there really is light after the darkest seasons. https://youtu.be/hlpUnhZ7v9g Instead of glossing over the pain or pretending faith makes life easy, De

When two college dads realized how little real-world money education their kids were getting, they didn’t complain they wrote a book. Financial advisor Steve Short and business owner Mark Schlipman met at a dad’s weekend and quickly bonded over a shared concern: most young adults are entering life with almost no financial foundation. In this episode, Steve and Mark share the story behind their “passion project” book, designed to give teens, college students, and young professionals a simple, step-by-step path to financial freedom without needing a financial advisor. You’ll hear how Steve’s experience as a fiduciary advisor shaped the book’s transparent, no sales approach, why they devoted two-plus hours every Monday for over two years to get it written, and how they built a framework parents can actually use to teach their kids about money. Instead of shaming people for buying lattes or insisting on extreme frugality, Steve and Mark lay out a realistic system that balances discipline with enjoyment. They e

Growing up in a “make 100K, spend 110” household, Justin Buonomo watched money chaos tear his family apart two bankruptcies, cars repossessed, even losing the family dog when they lost their home. At 18, he received an $80,000 settlement from a childhood car accident… and promptly repeated the same patterns he’d seen modeled. That painful experience plus later work on the business side of Johns Hopkins Medicine set him on a decade-long quest to understand money through a different lens: biblical wisdom, proven financial strategy, and intentional stewardship. Today, Justin is the CEO and founder of Journey to Financial Freedom, where he and his team help faith-based individuals break generational cycles, heal money trauma, and step into a life that honors both God and their goals. In this episode, Justin shares why budgeting is not punishment but the primary tool God can use to increase your freedom, options, and peace of mind when it’s taught the right way. He explains why most financial programs fail long

From Stanford and the RAND Corporation to leading revenue teams in the commercial world, Brent Keltner, PhD, has spent his career decoding how complex B2B deals are actually closed. As founder and president of Winalytics, Brent helps mid-market and enterprise teams move beyond product pitching to true account-based growth. He’s the author of “The Revenue Acceleration Playbook” and the forthcoming “Journey First Marketing,” a book that challenges one of B2B’s biggest bad habits: obsessing over individual personas when companies actually buy in committees. In this episode, Brent reveals why traditional contact-focused marketing leaves so much revenue on the table and how to flip your entire go-to-market motion around a simple idea: accounts buy, personas don’t. You’ll hear how to design websites that speak to every member of the buying committee, why customer stories should be your #1 content asset (not #5), and how to connect product value, business value, and corporate value so that users, budget owners, and

Service-based entrepreneurs often launch a business to do what they love, only to find themselves overwhelmed by tasks, burned out, and tied to operations they never planned for. In this episode, profit acceleration strategist Jane Parmel joins Robert Plank to explain why the real job of a business owner isn’t “doing the work” but leading the business. Drawing from her journey from teacher to children’s party center owner to coach, Jane unpacks how over-involvement, emotional attachment, and fear of delegation quietly destroy profit, stall growth, and keep owners stuck in the business instead of working on it. https://youtu.be/G__QT9C_0_Q Jane explains why mindset is the first system you must fix, from the belief that “no one can do it as well as me” to the dangerous comfort of “we’ve always done it this way.” You’ll hear how to step into the role of observer instead of constant doer, empower employees to take ownership, and design operations that support clarity, confidence, and cash flow.

Tired of random, low-quality LinkedIn calls or no calls at all? In this episode, Troy Hipolito (a.k.a. the “Not So Boring LinkedIn Guy” and former Swiss-Filipino gamification designer) breaks down how he helps B2B and service-based businesses turn LinkedIn into a consistent pipeline of vetted, high-value meetings. After agency work with Fortune 500 brands dried up, Troy reinvented his business using LinkedIn, combining “slow dating” relationship-building with tight systems and clear daily workflows. The result: a predictable process that leverages videos, content, events, and smart follow-up instead of spammy cold pitches and random hustle. https://youtu.be/Oh-wtfBJAI0 Troy reveals the exact framework behind Skoop, his Chrome extension and dashboard, which boosts first-message-to-booked-meeting conversions from ~3% to 21%, a 6x improvement, using short, raw, hyper-personalized videos embedded directly in LinkedIn DMs. You’ll learn how to fix a “jacked up” profile that repels your ideal clients, why yo
