SERVICE TEAM MINI-SERIES: Strategy of ArtsJoel, Stu and Brayden begin with a light-hearted yet thoughtful conversation about how music listening has changed over the decades—from records and tapes to CDs and streaming. They share memories of burning CDs and crafting the perfect mixtape, reflecting on how streaming has opened up access to a wider range of music than ever before.But the discussion quickly turns to a deeper question: What does it mean to serve from the front of church—especially in music? The hosts unpack the difference between producing a polished product and building authentic Christian community. Drawing parallels to hospitality teams, they explore why churches rely on volunteers, not professionals, and how serving together in music and other arts is an act of friendship and worship—not performance.They consider how Christian ministry can be counter-cultural in a world that prizes individualism and professionalism. Instead of treating music as a product, the Shock Absorber team frames it as a way of serving others and participating in the shared life of the church.The second half dives into Soul Revival's intergenerational approach to Arts ministry, where tradition meets cultural context under the authority of God's word. They talk about how liturgical elements like the Book of Common Prayer provide a theological grounding that allows people of all ages to express their faith together in reverent, meaningful ways.Brayden shares insights from his role leading Arts at Soul Revival—how involving young people in roles like handing out communion or leading youth bands deepens cross-generational discipleship. They explore how a team-based ministry structure, built around relationships and scalability, allows every arts-related role (from music to tech to preaching) to be integrated and sustainable.Finally, they reflect on the freedom Soul Revival's strategy offers gatherings like Yarrawarrah, where the absence of a music team doesn't limit the ministry but creates visibility and missional engagement in a new way—offering a fresh model of what church can look like.00:00 What have you been listening to?04:18 From tapes to streaming: music access over time15:34 Why we don't pay musicians at church24:54 Intergenerational Arts ministry & liturgy44:25 Youth bands and bottom-up leadership52:48 Building and scaling team structures1:03:46 Music-less gatherings & redefining church viabilityDISCUSSED ON THIS EPISODE:CONTACT US:Shock Absorber Email: joel@shockabsorber.com.auWebsite: https://www.shockabsorber.com.auSoul Revival Shop: https://www.soulrevivalchurch.com/shopExplore more: https://linktr.ee/JesusChangesEverything

SERVICE TEAM MINI-SERIES: Theology of ArtsStu, Joel, and guest co-host Brayden (Soul Revival's Arts pastor) explore the significance of the Arts service the context of church ministry  and how it moves beyond music to a broader theological vision. They open with reflections on why communal singing has declined in modern culture, despite its historical and emotional power. Drawing from history, village life, and the COVID-era sea shanty revival, the hosts highlight the rich tradition of singing as a bonding and memory-shaping activity.They link this to the church's continued practice of communal singing, reflecting on how music has evolved from communal to individualised consumption and how this shift impacts church gatherings. The conversation critiques the reduction of “worship” to just music, asserting that worship encompasses all of life.From there, they unpack the theological and cultural reasons behind Soul Revival's use of the term “Arts” rather than just “music team.” This encompasses up-front roles like preaching and prayer, as well as behind-the-scenes elements like sound and tech—all contributing to church.They concludeswith a discussion of how songs can shape doctrine and memory, the growing trend of writing more scripturally faithful songs, and the value of including elements like confession and liturgy. The team reaffirms their aim to build a culture of worship rooted in community, theology, and creativity—not just a roster of roles.00:00 Intro07:40 Why we don't sing in groups anymore (outside church)17:00 Singing in historical and cultural context—UK, wars, villages30:15 How technology changed music from communal to individual43:00 Church music as counter-cultural, creating community52:10 What the “arts team” includes—beyond just music1:00:00 Why worship is more than just singing1:13:00 The importance of Bible reading, prayer, and preaching as worship1:24:30 Corporate experience vs. individualism in worship1:35:00 Singing psalms, not just poetic lyrics—scripture in song1:47:00 Emotional vs. theological focus in music1:56:00 Ending on the richness of gathering together and sober joyDISCUSSED ON THIS EPISODEKing Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard's publishing live performancesNugs.net live concert platformMichael W.

Menopause is often referred to as "the change" and remains a complex and sensitive topic for many. Despite being historically under-discussed, it's crucial to address because of its profound impact on musculoskeletal health. Women are two to three times more likely than men to develop osteoarthritis, particularly around menopause. Changes in hormones, such as declining estrogen, can affect cartilage, bone density, inflammation, muscle health, and body weight - factors closely linked to joint pain and osteoarthritis symptoms. In this episode of the Joint Action Podcast, Dr. Ginny Mansberg, a GP and women's health expert, joins Prof. David Hunter to explore the intricate relationship between menopause and osteoarthritis. They discuss the physical and emotional challenges women face, including sleep disruption, weight gain, joint pain, and mental health issues like anxiety and depression. Dr. Mansberg shares valuable insights into how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and lifestyle strategies, including exercise, can help manage symptoms and improve long-term health outcomes.Whether you're navigating menopause or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a compassionate, evidence-informed perspective on understanding and managing the journey.RESOURCESDr. Ginny Mansberg's website: DrGini.com.auDr. Ginny Mansberg's book - The M Word: How to Thrive in Menopause: https://drginni.com.au/products/the-m-word-how-to-thrive-in-menopauseCONNECT WITH USTwitter: @ProfDavidHunter @jointactionorgInstagram: @osteoarthritisresearchgroupEmail: osteoarthritis.research@sydney.edu.auWebsite: www.jointaction.info/podcast Hosted on Acast.

So many mums are stressed with juggling kids, work and the bulk of the domestic load. The creep can be gradual and suddenly it seems like we're ‘doing everything'. This can lead to feelings of bitterness and resentment – and now we're bickering or testing each other, to see if the other one notices or really cares. The resentment also impacts our desire to be intimate.So how can we negotiate the mental load and take shared responsibility for family jobs? What do realistic expectations look like and how do we get back to a place of team-work and gratitude?In this episode, we're joined by a special guest, Cherie Marriott, from The Good Relationship Practice, to help us unpack this topic.About Cherie MarriottCherie Marriott is a Couple and Family Therapist at The Good Relationship Practice in McMahon's Point.Cherie says she's passionate about relationships and family life – and has an endless fascination with how humans interact and the stories we tell ourselves. She began her working career as a journalist – writing mostly about the banking and finance sector for 20 years, and living as an expat in London, Vietnam and Hong Kong.When her children hit primary school, she went back to University to study a Master's in Counselling and Psychotherapy. She first worked in the Women's Health Centre Network with trauma in adults and children and then moved into private practice.Cherie has two daughters in their early 20s, a highly entertaining, slightly crazy artist/photographer husband, and 19 nieces and nephews! She and her husband were foster parents for five years, and Cherie also teaches part-time in the counselling program at Western Sydney University.Two years ago, she joined four like-minded therapists to form The Good Relationship Practice in McMahon's Point on Sydney's lower north shore. From their beautiful rooms, overlooking the cafés and the florist shop below, they see individuals, couples, and families to help them with their relationship issues.THE GOOD RELATIONSHIP PRACTICEAddress: Level 1, 131 Blues Point Road, McMahons PointPhone: 0421 33 99 11Email: info@goodrelationship.com.auWebsite: www.goodrelationship.com.auSend us a message!#theparentingcouch #theparentingcouchpodcast #parenting #northshoremums #parentingexperts #parentinginterviews

Series Two: Risk Factors in Childbirth and Who Defines Risk? This series topic was borne from the recent happenings in the world of homebirth in Australia around Professional Indemnity Insurance for Privately Practicing Midwives and the potential parameters that they will have to practice within. Advocacy efforts are underway to ensure that women can continue to choose where and with whom they give birth and that midwives can continue to support them. Homebirth Australia (HBA) are asking people to write to their MPs informing them of how the proposed insurance will impact them personally. Please refer to HBA Instagram for more information: www.instagram.com/homebirth_australia Episode Two: Homebirthing twins with Bibi Coxon In this episode we are delighted to share our chat with Bibi Coxon. Bibi shares her own birth stories including the unassisted homebirth of her twins, as well as her work as a midwife supporting physiological twin births. Bibi is a midwife and mum to 3 babies all born at home, including twins in Australia. Her work and passion is in supporting women to have a positive birth experience. Bibi has two degrees in Midwifery. One Italian and one Australian. She has been teaching and educating actively in both countries and in both Italian and English. Bibi is learning more and more from Breech Without Borders about breech and twins and will be training along side the Global Midwifery Director, Kristine Lauria in Italy 2024 and in Australia in April 2025 (registration link below). The current situation places twin pregnancy into high risk clinics without continuity of care and without midwifery care which leads to higher rate of cesarean section and often trauma and separation from babies. Bibi's dream is to be able to offer to every woman pregnant with twins at least midwifery continuity of care and normalise vaginal twin birth even when 1 or 2 babies are breech. Her ultimate dream is to normalise twin homebirth, when conditions are physiological. We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed talking to Bibi.

Today we're talking membership sites and how through them, you can build a rich community of dedicated, like-minded people around your business.I am joined by two-time business founder Chris Edwards. Chris identified a gap in the market for expats living in Hong Kong and Singapore and as a result, created the digital platform and community known as Launchpad. With a background in marketing and publishing, Chris shares her experience and all of the valuable lessons learnt along the way while building a successful membership model in her business. Stepping into the business world 15 years ago as a female entrepreneur, Chris found a distinct lack of supportive resources or networks to tap into. Driven by the challenges she faced and her need to give back, Chris endeavoured to create a community of conscious entrepreneurs who strive for better businesses.Whether or not you're interested in introducing a membership site to your business model, I know you'll find so much value in the wisdom Chris has to offer. She shares her advice on where to start when building a business, such as doing deep research, upskilling through online resources and ensuring you find solid support. I absolutely loved hearing the joy that Chris has for her community members as well as her business. My hope is that you glean as much valuable insight from this conversation as I did, and that Chris's story inspires your own pursuit of growing your business community. Connect With Chris:LinkedIn Good Business PodcastInstagram: @chris_edwards_auWebsite:    www./thelaunchpad.group Connect With Me:Free Download: Ideal Client Avatar WorkbookWork with me: Business Strategy Workshop | 1:1 Business Accelerator ProgramJoin the waitlist:  The Run Your Business Like a Boss AcademyInstagramLinkedIn
