Happy Father's Day! In this episode, Dr. Mo concludes the series, Resurrection and Relationships. Today we focus again on the passage from John 21:20-22 and highlight Jesus's instruction to Peter and invitation to us. Jesus reminded Peter that Peter needed to attend to his relationship with Jesus and not be distracted with the plans for the other disciples. Jesus instructed Peter to not worry about other issues and to “follow Him”. Jesus instructed and invited Peter to follow Him after Peter had rejected, abandoned, betrayed, and denied Him. Tune in to this episode as we think about how Jesus invites us to follow Him when we have been betrayed, rejected, abandoned, or denied. He invites us into the redemption that He purchased for us during the Crucifixion. Also, for those of us who have betrayed, rejected, abandoned, or denied others - He invites us also into a redemptive state. Redemption is ours!

Happy Pentecost!In this episode, Dr. Mo continues the series, Resurrection and Relationships. Today we focus a bit further on the conversation between Jesus and Peter. We read from John 21:20-22 and focus on another portion of their conversation.Sometimes when there is tension in our relationships or we hear uncomfortable or difficult things in conversations; we can find ourselves questioning “well, what about this person or that person?” We might entangle another person into the conversation to ease our discomfort or to project our difficulties on someone else. Peter did this as he continued to engage in a conversation with Jesus. Jesus quickly and bluntly asked Peter “what's that to you?” Jesus reminded Peter that the hard conversation they were having toward reconciliation was just between the two of them. Tune in to this episode as we think about how Jesus invites us to stay focused on our relationship with Him. He reminds us to do what He has asked us to do despite our questions concerning others.

In this episode, Dr. Mo continues the series, Resurrection and Relationships. Today's focus is when we find ourselves engaging in the difficult work of reconciliation and there is frustration and grief from the perpetrator. We are discussing and thinking about practical ways to participate in the work of reconciliation. Dr. Mo reads from John 21:15-17 as we focus on this interaction between Jesus and Peter. Ironically, this is the third time that Jesus appears to the disciples following the Resurrection. And here we see Jesus asking Peter three times if Peter really loves Him. Theologians suggest that Jesus asked this question three times as a way to redeem Peter. One time for each of the three denials of Jesus. Tune in to this episode as we think about how Jesus might be inviting perpetrators of betrayal to engage in reconciliation especially when one might be grieved at the duration of the process and the repeated interrogations.

In this episode, Dr. Mo continues the series, Resurrection and Relationships. Today's focus is when we find ourselves as the victims of betrayal trauma where reconciliation is a possibility. Today, we think about reconciliation after one has experienced betrayal. Sometimes there is a need and a desire to engage in the difficult work of reconciliation after betrayal. One must juggle many factors, such as the mentality and heart posture of the perpetrator, the voices of others who will say “get over it and move on”, and the real emotions and effects that are a part of the physiological distress. Tune in to this episode as we think about how Jesus might be inviting us to resurrect our relationships toward reconciliation. Dr. Mo reads from John 21:15-17 as we discuss what are normal effects of betrayal. One has to be intentional doing the work of reconciliation while leaning into the relationship with Jesus. He will do His part. Then, He invites and empowers us to do ours.

Feelings such as shame, anxiety, humiliation, and anger are a few that people can experience as a result of betrayal trauma. Tune in to this episode as we think about how Jesus might be inviting us to resurrect our lives after we have been broken through betrayal.

Happy Mother's Day! Grace be unto you for the varied emotions this day evokes. In this episode, Dr. Mo further discusses Jesus and relationships, namely with His mother, Mary. Dr. Mo reads from John 19:25-27 where we see Jesus hanging on the cross and Mary standing there nearby. Moments before Jesus gives up His spirit; He assures His mother's provision. Jesus even in His anguish and trauma, looked at His mother and speaks to her directly. He entrusts the care of His mother to the disciple, John. The word “Behold” in the Greek means to see. It also means to observe carefully. Tune in to this episode as we think about how Jesus might be inviting us to carefully observe our mothers, whether they are still living or have passed from this earthly life. Even in the various complexities this day holds for many, there are insights to consider as we look at Jesus as He beholds His mother.Information for Dr. Mohttps://www.drmoniquesmithgadson.com/Link to order “Finding Hope in A Dark Place”:https://lexhampress.com/search?query=Finding%20Hope%20in%20a%20Dark%20Place%3A%20Facing%20Loneliness%2C%20Depression%2C%20and%20Anxiety%20with%20the%20Power%20of%20Grace&sortBy=Relevance&limit=30&page=1&ownership=all&geographicAvailability=allhttps://www.amazon.com/Finding-Hope-Dark-Place-Loneliness/dp/1683596358/ref=rvi_sccl_7/138-1785751-1148333?pd_rd_w=decCb&content-id=amzn1.sym.f5690a4d-f2bb-45d9-9d1b-736fee412437&pf_rd_p=f5690a4d-f2bb-45d9-9d1b-736fee412437&pf_rd_r=GMEBCA5ZB54MM98HHN5F&pd_rd_wg=pwctW&pd_rd_r=0cf054c6-aedd-427d-ac2a-563757407228&pd_rd_i=1683596358&psc=1Follow us on social media: https://www.facebook.com/And-The-Church-Said-Podcast-106848090932637https://instagram.com/drmoniquesmithgadson?igshid=1bmt2hei1j6i8Support And The Church Said:Cash App: https://cash.app/$andthechurchsaidPayPal: https://paypal.me/andthechurchsaid?locale.x=en_US.
In this episode, Dr. Mo further discusses the relationships between Jesus and His disciples. Dr. Mo reads from Luke 22:54-62 and focuses on Peter and the relationship with himself. In Luke 22:61-62, Peter remembers and realizes as soon as Jesus looks at Him, Jesus' prophecy that Peter would deny him. Peter had to come face to face with himself in that moment. The Scripture says he wept bitterly - which means he wailed loudly and violently. He denied and betrayed His Lord. Betrayal trauma is defined as interpersonal trauma perpetrated by someone close to them. Betrayal trauma causes psychological distress for the victims of such abuse. And Peter enacted betrayal trauma upon the Son of Man, His friend, His Master, His Lord. Tune in to this episode as we think about how we need to have a face to face with Self when we come into an awareness of betraying another, especially someone who is close and dear to us. As we continue to celebrate the Resurrection, may we be careful to pause and ponder what we stand in need of by way of Redemption as we acknowledge and confess our betrayals of others.

In this episode, Dr. Mo further discusses the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. On this Resurrection Sunday, Dr. Mo reads select verses from Mark 16 and further discusses the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. After the Resurrection of Jesus, He went to Galilee waiting there for the disciples. Even Peter. Jesus had experienced abandonment, rejection, and betrayal from the disciples. He summoned them to meet with Him even AFTER they abandoned Him. When Jesus appeared where the disciples were, we read that Jesus rebuked them - sharply criticizing them for their unbelief. Then, after He got a few things off of His chest, He commissioned them to go forth and preach the gospel.Tune in to this episode as we think about how during this Resurrection Week we can pray about any relationships, personal or substitutionary, where we are being invited to take a posture of humility and not defensiveness. Perhaps we can resurrect relationships if we choose to listen to another who has been rejected, abandoned, and betrayed.

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. On this Palm Sunday, Dr. Mo reads from Matthew 26:36-46, 56 and discusses this aspect of the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. Jesus invited three of His disciples - Peter, James, and John - into a most intimate and most difficult moment in His earthly life. He invited them into the Garden of Gethsemane to stay with Him as He prayed. Jesus confided to HIs disciples that He was deeply grieved. He prayed to His Heavenly Father while the disciples slept. And previously, all of the disciples insisted they would never leave Jesus. However, when times got tough, the disciples deserted him. Tune in to this episode as we think about how during this Holy Week we can attune to not only our closest relationships but also relating to humankind in general during these chaotic times. Can we come alongside people and assure them we will stay to help them during job losses, loss of benefits, fragmentation of family systems, and so many other fears and anxieties people are experiencing during these times. Or will we scatter?Information for Dr. Mohttps://www.drmoniquesmithgadson.com/Link to order “Finding Hope in A Dark Place”:https://lexhampress.com/search?query=Finding%20Hope%20in%20a%20Dark%20Place%3A%20Facing%20Loneliness%2C%20Depression%2C%20and%20Anxiety%20with%20the%20Power%20of%20Grace&sortBy=Relevance&limit=30&page=1&ownership=all&geographicAvailability=allhttps://www.amazon.com/Finding-Hope-Dark-Place-Loneliness/dp/1683596358/ref=rvi_sccl_7/138-1785751-1148333?pd_rd_w=decCb&content-id=amzn1.sym.f5690a4d-f2bb-45d9-9d1b-736fee412437&pf_rd_p=f5690a4d-f2bb-45d9-9d1b-736fee412437&pf_rd_r=GMEBCA5ZB54MM98HHN5F&pd_rd_wg=pwctW&pd_rd_r=0cf054c6-aedd-427d-ac2a-563757407228&pd_rd_i=1683596358&psc=1Follow us on social media: https://www.facebook.com/And-The-Church-Said-Podcast-106848090932637https://instagram.com/drmoniquesmithgadson?igshid=1bmt2hei1j6i8Support And The Church Said:Cash App: https://cash.app/$andthechurchsaidPayPal: https://paypal.me/andthechurchsaid?locale.x=en_US.
In this episode, Dr. Mo further explores the discipline of Rest. Dr. Mo continues to discuss Genesis 2:1-3 where we see how God Himself modeled rest for us. Our focus is on Genesis 2:3 where God blesses the Seventh Day and declares it holy. We ponder the culture's watering down that which God has declared holy. If He commands this day to be holy, how do we need to align our lives to fulfill His Word to us? We are challenged to think about what the day offers us - rest and tranquility - as opposed to a legalistic approach of what we cannot do. Tune in to this episode as we think about how God blessed the day where He ceased from work and declared it holy and to be set apart.

In this episode, Dr. Mo further explores the discipline of Rest. Dr. Mo continues to discuss Genesis 2:1-3 where we see how God Himself modeled rest for us. We look at a detailed definition of the word “rest” in the Hebrew to understand how we might implement Sabbath rest in our lives.Dr. Mo invites us to think about external and internal factors that might be in operation keeping us from engaging in Sabbath rest.

We are invited to conduct a time budget so that we will be able to trace where we invest our time.

In this episode, Dr. Mo celebrates five years of the podcast! Dr. Mo reflects on five years of podcasting as she understands that worship is an act of obedience. We look at Genesis 22:5 where Abraham takes his son, Isaac, to be sacrificed. It is the first time in the Scriptures the word “worship” is used. Dr. Mo discusses places where she has failed to execute all God has shown and instructed her concerning the podcast. She talks about continuing the work wholeheartedly as an act of worship, that is, obedience unto God. Which includes fully executing the vision God has given her concerning the podcast.

In this episode, Dr. Mo continues to discuss ways we can start the new year being more organized, productive, or more efficient by considering the discipline of rest. We are studying Genesis 2:1-3 and observing God's model for rest that we can apply to our lives. God completed the work He purposed to do each day. God is God and still chose to establish boundaries each day as to what He would complete. This should motivate us to be realistic in what we can accomplish in a given day. Tune in to this episode as we think about God choosing a day of rest, blessing it, and declaring it as holy.

In this episode, Dr. Mo continues to discuss ways we can start the new year being more organized, productive, or more efficient. We are still delving in Genesis 1 for principles that help us frame how to order our days toward productivity. Starting at verse 4 throughout the remainder of the chapter, we see three themes emerging: (1) God was productive and creating every day; (2) He reviewed all of His accomplishments at the end of the day and blessed the day declaring it was good; and (3) when He made humankind He declared that it was VERY good. Tune in to this episode as we imagine how God might be inviting us to plan our tasks and feel a sense of accomplishment at the end of each day.

In this episode, Dr. Mo continues to discuss some of the approaches we take at the beginning of a new year when seeking to get organized or set other aspirational goals. We continue to look at Genesis 1 with a focus on verse 3 and the three words “Let there be”. We are still thinking of Genesis 1 as a frame to consider how God might be inviting us to create and exercise an authority using the words “let there be”.Tune in to this episode as we contemplate an invitation from God to create and establish.

In this episode, Dr.Mo further discusses how the Church of the Living God must first recognize diversity before there is true unity. She delves deeper into I Corinthians 12 for wisdom on how the Church can and should lead the way in unifying. Unifying requires intentionality and can be communicated to be more simplistic than the process really is. Many times we are required to collapse some part of our Selves that results in uniformity instead of unity.

In this episode, Dr. Mo talks about unity after the presidential election in the United States. She discusses how there is no unifying without diversifying. Dr. Daniel Siegel outlines in his book “The Developing Mind” how essential it is for us to “cultivate an integrated sense of our identity” in order to confront the most urgent of challenges that face us today. We have to be intentional to cultivate a sense of “our” identity in order to unite in these polarized times..

In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses Clergy Appreciation Month and closing out Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Dr. Mo encourages us to remember the emotional load that clergy carry and to consider being a healthy support for them.

On this episode, Dr. Gadson continues to discuss what does it mean for the church to be a refuge and witness to those who are victims of psychological abuse. Dr. Gadson shares about a conversation among graduate students who wondered what to do when individuals who are victims of abuse are rushed to forgiveness by members of the Church. Sometimes victims receive subtle suggestions (and most times not so subtlety), that forgiveness is the “way” to go. Dr. Gadson reviews the thoughts that inform why we should wait on the Holy Spirit to guide us with wisdom and clarity to be equipped to do the work of the ministry relating to victims of psychological abuse. She then looks to the compassionate strategy of the Good Samaritan to inform how we can “BE” the Kingdom of Heaven at hand and not necessarily “preach” the Kingdom of Heaven. Tune in to this episode to discover why a theological statement of forgiveness is not the first order of business among those who are severely suffering and mentally tormented due to psychological abuse.

Historian, author, speaker - Dr. Jemar Tisby - joins the podcast today. Dr. Jemar Tisby shares his lived experiences and the emotional effects of realizing when he did not belong, especially in the church. Dr. Tisby recounts how he was introduced to Jesus and the positive encounters he experienced in his formative years. We engage dialogue to honor the emotional aspects of Dr. Tisby's story as he delves into the feeling of betrayal he experienced and endured. It is because of those previous positive experiences and his remembrance of Who Jesus simply is, that propels him to continue to call the church to be a place of belonging by eliminating the barrier of race.Dr. Tisby encourages everyone to check on and check in with one another to generate and communicate hope. That hope and care and concern can be healing in the lives of others. He also shares that self care is essential as he continues to do the work God has called him to do.

On this episode, Dr. Gadson continues to discuss the church being a refuge for those who are victims of psychological abuse. Focusing on the facts that Avery Neal reported in her article “Identifying Psychological Abuse”, Dr. Gadson discusses how the church should step into conversations on psychological abuse. If the church does not raise awareness on psychological abuse, she could potentially cultivate the environment that allows psychological abuse to thrive. The church can be refuge from psychological abuse by raising awareness, holding discussions in various ministries and all age groups, and training leadership about psychological abuse and how to identify the members who are most vulnerable to psychological abuse. Tune in to this episode to learn what refuge in the Hebrew means.

Happy Father's Day 2023! On this episode, Dr. Gadson reflects on Proverbs 3:12. She elaborates on how God our Father loves us and disciplines us. In this verse, we see God's love is compared to the love of a father who disciplines and delights in his children.
