Uncomfortable Conversations with Crina

Guess who’s back, back, back…back again! Jonathan Mitchell joins me again to continue the discussion on Jesus. We love talking about Jesus! In these extremely unprecedented times, we are living on the edge of our seat, almost watching the scariest sci-fi movie of your life. Jonathan and I decided we needed to come up with some solution. This is it. The Armor of God. If you want to become spiritually prepared for the Spiritual War going on since the beginning of time, listen up. Grab a pen and paper because you are gonna need it. It’s time to suit up in the Armor of God.

This conversation is going to be different than the rest. This is based off of evidence-based research. I address the main points of the pro-V@cc!n3 movement. I refute each argument in hopes to make you understand that there are many sides to this story. I consistently provide reference, but I will source all the data at the bottom of the description. I hope this helped put things into perspective, especially when discussing newborn babies and infants. Again, I'm never here to tell you what to do. I'm here to raise awareness.

I go into one of the darkest times of my life regarding my youngest son, but I discuss how it made me who I am today. Henry is my WHY. Henry’s vaccine reaction REQUIRED me to wake up. I was forced to take his health in my own hands because I felt like I was left alone with no hope, and no help. This isn’t a podcast to tell you how to parent or what you should do regarding vaccines. I just want you to LISTEN. From one human to another. I hope you listen with an open heart with this one. This story is a perfect example of God’s glory. He knew exactly what I needed during those times.

Disclaimer: these are CONNECTIONS not CLAIMS. Also, I am dropping a lot of "F" bombs in this podcast, solely due to frustration with the situation. This is not a side that you'll see on the podcast quite often, but I'm also not gonna censor or hide who I am. God's not judging me based off the words I may say here, but the way I use those words. Wayfair has been involved in some serious online human trafficking accusations. Nothing is set in stone until we have a federal investigation, can we get that clear? That doesn’t mean we don’t need to have this important conversation, online human trafficking. That doesn’t mean we don’t talk about CHILD trafficking. We need to speak for those that can't speak for themselves, can we agree on that? The fact that this information has not yet gone viral and a SMALL percentage of the global population actually knows what is going on, is DISGUSTING. We need to do something. We need to be aware. I tried to cover as much as I could, but I still missed a lot of important details, I hope you follow up. Here are all my resources for this entire podcast, shout out to these instagram accounts for raising awareness as well.

Jonathan Mitchell joins me, Crina, in an uncomfortable conversation about the battle Christians face every single day, if not, every single minute of the day. I get into the reason why Jonathan joined me on this podcast. Then, we get into the Biblical explanation of the internal spiritual warfare and what it's like to be a Christian dealing with this. Spoiler alert! The battle is not easy but you receive the ultimate gift of life, eternity. Join us in this conversation between two imperfect Christians talking about the daily struggles and rewards of this life.

In this podcast, I dive into one of the most utilized practices of the New Age culture. Astrology/Horoscopes actually played a big role at one point in my life, I talk about it. I never tell you what is "right" from "wrong", but I explain the biblical perspective as well (it's not as bad as you think). I do address the fact that astrology is utilized as an occult practice, whether you want to admit that or not. I also talk about the fact that we are consistently looking for other venues in hopes of searching for our true, inner self, when the simple answer is, Jesus. Listen with an open mind and open heart, always. Crina

If you love the Enneagram, get ready to feel a little "uncomfy". I dive into the history of the Enneagram, my personal journey and experience, the good AND the bad, and of course, a wrap up with the amazing Biblical perspective on all of this. Guess what I'm not doing on this podcast? TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO!Resources:https://religionnews.com/2017/09/05/what-is-the-enneagram-and-why-are-christians-suddenly-so-enamored-by-it/https://www.charismanews.com/opinion/79369-3-biblical-reasons-christians-should-say-no-to-the-enneagramhttps://www.enneagraminstitute.com/

As you may know, I find it important to stay informed in all areas of life. This segment was created to focus on current events. Because it's difficult to stay up-to-date with current events when I record a few weeks back, I created this solution. I do address the Bible at the end of the segment, but this will be geared for those primarily interested in current events. This podcast ran LONG, do not expect that going forward. I had a lot to cover in a four-month time frame so stick with it. Do you want to stay informed but you're just tired of listening to the same folks on the big screen? This is for you. I reflect on the timeline of COVID-19 from January to present, this really places things in perspective. I address what was talked about in mainstream media and what WASN'T talked about. And then, I finalize with a Biblical perspective and takeaway on preparedness.

If I'm going to be referencing the Bible in every single podcast, I think it's best to understand why. I talk about my personal journey with the Bible as beginner, and go into small detail about the Romanian Orthodox church I grew up in. I go into the statistics of the Bible and how they prove its divinity. I also address the most common misconception of the Bible, people think there is NO way that the integrity of the Bible persisted over thousands of years. Spoiler alert? It has and always will! This podcast will give you a different perspective on the Bible.

It's not often that one decides to start up a podcast, right? I get into the details of who I am, what I'm doing in the podcast world, and why I'm here. I also finish up with how to appropriately address conflict on the internet because I think some of us have lost our manners. It's okay, we all need that friendly reminder here and there. It's time we start having those uncomfortable conversations. -Crina
