Sex is a part of God's plan for the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman. Sex unites two people, both body and soul, and so we must be careful to keep it within the bounds of marriage. In marriage sex should be frequent, patient, and giving.

What if the chaos in your family isn't random? What if the patterns of addiction, broken relationships, and spiritual emptiness running through your bloodline have a real theological explanation?In this episode, James speaks with Dr. Dan Schneider to break open one of the most misunderstood topics in the Church today: generational sin and familial curses. Dr. Dan unpacks his new book Sins of the Father: A Catholic and Biblical Approach to Generational Curses, walking through what the Church actually teaches about how a father's sins affect his children. The answer is harder to hear than most men want. Because it puts the weight squarely back where it belongs: on you.We cover why healing Masses for "the family tree" get the theology wrong, what it actually means when God says He will "visit the iniquities of the fathers upon the children," why the confessional is where warriors go to get rebuilt, and what God is going to actually ask you when you stand before Him.The challenge for every man listening: Stop blaming your ancestors for your struggles and start building the kind of legacy your children and grandchildren will point to as the day the curse ended. What are you giving your family?The ancient weapons are still the best ones. Go to Confession. Offer Mass for the dead. Fast. Do penance. Die to yourself. That's it.BOOK REFERENCED: Sins of the Father: A Catholic and Biblical Approach to Generational Curses by Dr. Dan SchneiderPOWERFUL QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE:"The confessional is where warriors go to get rebuilt.

In this episode, Pastor Jon Alworth explores the spiritual foundations of overcoming addiction and destructive cycles. Moving beyond simple behavior modification, Pastor Alworth argues that addiction is a "worship disorder" — a misplaced appetite where individuals attempt to fill a spiritual hunger with temporary substances or behaviors that ultimately "leak" and fail to satisfy. The program synthesizes three core pillars for a successful life in recovery: A Biblical Approach to Avoiding Relapse: Pastor Alworth emphasizes starving the flesh and feeding the spirit. He details the cycle of addiction—trigger, thought, fantasy, justification, and action — and explains that victory starts before the action is taken by "turning on the light" of Christ to dispel darkness. Replacing Desire with Hunger for God: Drawing on the imagery of "broken cisterns" from the Book of Jeremiah, he explains that recovery requires replacing harmful cravings with a hunger for God's "living water," which provides permanent peace rather than temporary escape. Understanding Your Purpose: The program concludes by defining the believer's identity as an "Ambassador for Christ" and a "Masterpiece" created for good works. Pastor Alworth encourages listeners to discover their unique spiritual gifts — such as mercy, hospitality, or leadership — to serve others and find true fulfillment. The message is one of radical hope, reminding all of us that regardless of past relapses or current struggles, we are "new creations" in Christ and that God’s mercies are renewed every morning. Key Scriptural References Lamentations 5:21The promise of restoration and turning back to God. John 10:10The contrast between the enemy (destruction) and Christ (abundant life). Galatians 5:16Walking by the Spirit to overcome the desires of the flesh. Romans 12:2Transformation through the renewing of the mind. Ephesians 2:10Believers as God’s craftsmanship/masterpiece.

In this episode I speak with Wellness Expert, Personal Trainer, Fitness Nutrition Specialist, and Author Micki Woodford on her devotional and wellness journal, 180 You Turn: A Biblical Approach to A Healthy Lifestyle. Listen as Micki talks about how being a good steward can lead you into an unexpected calling. From strange and unique skills, military moves, and a plethora of certifications; Micki moved into her calling to motivate others. She believes that energy begets energy. Her boldness in speaking to her audience about stewarding their bodies through fitness and nutrition stems from her deep faith and undestanding that we have all been bought with a price.

As a new year approaches, many people feel pressure to "fix" themselves after holiday overindulgence — often through extreme restrictions that never last. In this episode, we talk about how to set realistic, sustainable health and fitness goals for 2026 without guilt, shame, or an all-or-nothing mindset. We also take a biblical look at an often-misunderstood topic: Is gluttony a sin? What does Scripture really say about overeating, self-control, and the desires of the flesh? Together, we explore how our physical habits connect to our spiritual lives and how to pursue health in a way that honors God rather than feeds guilt or obsession. In this episode, you'll learn: How to set realistic health and fitness goals for 2026 Why extreme restriction usually backfires How to build sustainable habits with balance What the Bible teaches about gluttony and self-control Whether you're joining the challenge or simply want a healthier, more balanced approach to food and fitness, this episode will help you think clearly, biblically, and realistically about caring for your body.

In this episode of Conversations with Christians Engaged, host Ben Quine continues our FPA: Building a Movement series with a powerful and timely discussion on the biblical relationship between the church and government. Joined by Greg Baker, Founding Director of the Church Ambassador Network, and Brian Allen, Director of Operations, Ben explores what Scripture teaches about God's design for family, church, and government — and how believers can faithfully navigate these institutions today. Rooted in Romans 13:1, this conversation introduces the Shepherd to Shepherd model, which connects pastors and government leaders as fellow servants under the authority of Christ. Greg and Brian share how relational ministry, prayer, and biblical truth are transforming hearts inside state capitols across the country — not through politics, but through the gospel.Listeners will hear: Why separation of church and state is biblical — and why it matters How pastors can engage government leaders without compromising the church's mission Real-life stories of prayer opening doors for gospel conversations How the Choose Well program equips churches to steward the vote biblically Practical ways everyday Christians can pray, support their pastors, and engage faithfully This episode is a compelling reminder that civic engagement is a mission field — and that God is still at work through faithful presence, humility, and truth.

Do you ever catch yourself saying, “I just don't feel like it”… and then making your decision based on that? I don't feel like getting up. I don't feel like exercising. I don't feel like cooking. I don't feel like reading my Bible. I don't feel like dealing with this right now. If so—same, friend. This episode came straight out of my own conviction. Recently, I heard someone casually explain why they skipped something based on how they felt, and it was like a lightbulb moment. I suddenly realized: that's me. That's what I've been wrestling with for years—trying to honor how God made my body and emotions without letting my feelings run my life. In today's conversation, we're exposing the cultural lie that says, “Just listen to your feelings.” Because yes—God created our feelings, and they matter. But they were never meant to be the leader. They're meant to be indicator lights, not our steering wheel. love, Brittany    Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama? Sign Up for the Pain to Peace Academy HERE.

Has Christian nationalism gone too far? In this lively yet thought-provoking conversation, we explore the tension between faith and politics, the role of the church in society, and how cultural challenges shape the way Christians embody the teachings of Jesus. From examining controversial trends like the rise of extreme Christian nationalism to unpacking theological nuances such as cruciformity and the kingdom of God, this discussion invites listeners to wrestle with what it means to live faithfully in a complex world. With humor, personal stories, and deep theological insight, the hosts tackle questions like: How should Christians navigate cultural issues without compromising their witness? What does justice look like in a society shaped by competing wills? And how do we maintain humility and curiosity in the face of divisive ideologies?  We encourage you to join the conversation—email us your thoughts or engage with us on Instagram and Facebook.

Today we're talking about emotional healing and the nervous system and I can't wait for you to hear this one. I sat down with Hope Vansuch, a Christ-centered nervous system coach, to talk about how God designed our bodies to heal, not just spiritually but physiologically too.If you've ever wondered why you keep reacting the same way in moments of stress, or why certain patterns feel impossible to break, this conversation will be a deep breath of hope. Hope shares how our nervous system holds emotional memory, how the Holy Spirit partners with our body in healing, and why regulation isn't just self-help — it's spiritual alignment.We'll talk about breaking generational cycles, recognizing unhealed emotional wounds, and simple daily rhythms that bring peace back to your body, with Jesus at the center of it all.If you've ever felt stuck in stress, shame, or striving, this episode is your invitation to slow down, tune in, and let God meet you right where you are.To connect with Hope, head over to @hope_vansuch on IG!Evergreen Coaching Application: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeoMqw5HWEa-jNZf3h6tazgYRLwcS6NfAzQZY315akPvUhbVg/viewform?usp=header SUPPORT BY WORDS: https://buymeacoffee.com/bywordsSHOP MY BOOKS:Waking Up: Living Open — https://amzn.to/3LusgrzLove Is Devotional — https://amzn.to/3S6OZhs FREE Path to Purpose Guide: https://hannahhughes.myflodesk.com/pathwaytopurpose My favorite Bible studies + devotionals - HANNAHHUGHES10  for 10% off: https://thedailygraceco.com?dt_id=300773 Connect: ⁠www.thehannahhughes.com⁠Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thehannahhughes/⁠ https://www.instagram.com/bywordspodcast Shop my Amazon faves: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/shop/thehannahhughes⁠

Health insurance or health cost-sharing—which is the better fit for your family? With open enrollment upon us, it's the perfect moment to explore your choices. Joining me today is Lauren Gajdek to highlight the key differences between health insurance and health cost-sharing.Lauren Gajdek is the Senior Director of External Affairs at Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM), an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Landscape of Traditional Health InsuranceOpen enrollment season is right around the corner—running from November 1 through January 15, 2026. For most people, that means navigating the world of traditional health insurance. These plans typically require you to select doctors and specialists within a designated provider network, often necessitating referrals or pre-authorization before receiving care.While insurance companies provide coverage, their structure can come at a high cost. Premiums and deductibles are often steep, and because insurers operate for profit, patient care and affordability don't always align. For many families, this creates a significant financial burden.How Health Cost Sharing Is DifferentHealth cost-sharing ministries, such as CHM, offer a unique alternative. The end result is the same—your medical bills are taken care of—but the process looks very different.No provider networks: Members are free to choose their own doctors and hospitals.Nonprofit model: Unlike insurance companies, CHM is a ministry. Members send in a set monthly contribution, which is pooled together to reimburse medical costs.Community approach: Instead of being absorbed into a bureaucratic system, members know that their contributions directly help fellow believers in need.Since its founding, CHM has facilitated over $10 billion in shared medical bills.How Does Health Cost-Sharing Work?Here's how it works for a typical family:Choose your provider. Members can see any doctor or hospital as long as the treatment fits CHM's guidelines.Identify as self-pay. This allows members to receive significant discounts often, sometimes as high as 40%.Submit bills to CHM. The ministry coordinates with providers as needed. In the meantime, members may set up a temporary payment plan until reimbursement arrives.The process is straightforward, designed to give families peace of mind while also offering flexibility and savings.What to Keep in Mind During Open EnrollmentWhen weighing your options, consider more than just the monthly premium. Ask:How much am I actually paying out-of-pocket after deductibles, co-pays, and coinsurance?Will my coverage travel with me if I go out of state—or out of the country?With CHM, members don't face co-pays or coinsurance, and qualifying medical bills are shared 100% according to ministry guidelines. Additionally, portability makes it an appealing option for families who want flexibility, regardless of where life takes them.A Biblical Approach to HealthcareAt its core, CHM is more than a healthcare solution—it's a ministry. Members not only share medical expenses but also pray for one another and receive prayer support in return. Every monthly contribution is a gift that directly helps another member in need.CHM reflects biblical principles of bearing one another's burdens while providing a practical, affordable path to healthcare.To explore whether health cost sharing is right for your family this open enrollment season, visit CHMinistries.org/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm refinancing my home and am unsure whether I should roll the closing costs into the new loan or pay them from my investments or retirement accounts. Rolling them into the loan would lower my monthly payment, but is that the wisest choice financially—and biblically?Could you explain where the funds actually come from with a reverse mortgage, who technically owns the home in this arrangement, and whether the FHA backs the loan?My wife and I recently took a required minimum distribution from her IRA and made a qualified charitable distribution to our church. They told us it wasn't tax-deductible and wouldn't issue a receipt. What does the IRS actually require in this situation?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM)Understanding Reverse: Simplifying the Reverse Mortgage by Dan HultquistWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

“Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” — Matthew 6:21That powerful truth from Jesus captures the heart of FaithFi's mission and vision.If money issues are ultimately heart issues, then we need more than financial tips—we need a heart change that helps us see God as our ultimate treasure. Today, Taylor Standridge joins us to explore the deeper purpose behind FaithFi and how you can partner in that mission.Taylor Standridge is the Production Director of FaithFi: Faith & Finance and the co-author of Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and Anxiety.When Your Peace Rises and Falls with the MarketIt's pretty ironic that the stock market graph sometimes looks like a heart rate monitor. The point? Many people's emotions—and even their sense of hope—are tied to their financial situation. When the market dips, so does their peace.But Scripture offers a better way: “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God” (Psalm 20:7).If your peace mirrors the market, it may be a spiritual warning light. Scripture calls us to set our minds on things above, not on the volatility of our savings accounts.Why Our Mission at FaithFi MattersAt the core of FaithFi is a calling to help people glorify God through wise financial decisions. But our vision shapes how we do it: to see every Christian view God as their ultimate treasure.In Jesus's words during the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 6:21 tells us, "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Christian finance is about more than avoiding debt or giving to good causes. Those are great goals, but Jesus is calling us to something deeper: to reexamine what we treasure in the first place.It's not about giving more, it's about loving God more. That's why even the Pharisees, who gave plenty, were still rebuked—because their hearts weren't surrendered. When Christ becomes our greatest joy, giving becomes cheerful, not dutiful.The Daily Struggle: Trusting God or Trusting in WealthOne of the biggest struggles we see on the show frequently is the tension between trusting God and trusting in financial security.The culture says to get more and upgrade everything. But the gospel calls us to steward our resources for God's Kingdom. Ultimately, money can never define our worth—it can only serve as a tool when our identity is rooted in Christ.Wisdom Over Wealth: What Ecclesiastes Teaches UsThis book reminds us that wealth, possessions, and even success are fleeting. Apart from God, they're meaningless—just vapor, or ‘hevel' as Ecclesiastes puts it.But when we view money as a gift from God, not the goal, its purpose becomes clear. Ecclesiastes invites us to stop chasing what won't last and start investing in what will.That's why we're excited about the release of our latest study, Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money, authored by John Cortines. Ecclesiastes speaks so much to our modern struggles with wealth, showing us both the futility of placing our hopes in riches and the true path to a life grounded in God's wisdom. You'll find that this study will challenge you to rethink your relationship with money and inspire deeper trust in God's provision and sovereignty.To get your copy, you can either pre-order it at FaithFi.com/Shop or request a copy to be sent to you when you make a gift of $35 or more to the ministry of FaithFi at FaithFi.com/Give. Practical Tools for a Biblical Approach to FinancesFaithFi isn't just about biblical theory—it's about real-life application. There are several ways we equip people to live out God-honoring stewardship:The FaithFi App—A budgeting tool built on biblical values like generosity, margin, and contentment. It even includes a vibrant in-app community with Certified Christian Financial Counselors (CertCFCs) and Certified Kingdom Advisors (CKAs).  Radio + Podcast—Daily encouragement and wisdom for wherever you are on your financial journey. Devotionals & Studies—Tools like Look at the Sparrows and Wisdom Over Wealth are helping individuals and churches connect their faith and finances. Faithful Steward Magazine—A quarterly, beautifully designed resource full of rich theology, practical advice, and real-life encouragement—exclusively for FaithFi Partners.Join the Movement: Become a FaithFi PartnerThe best way to support FaithFi's work is to become a FaithFi Partner—someone who gives $35 a month or more, or at least $400 a year. In return, partners receive early access to our Bible studies and devotionals, full access to the FaithFi Pro App, and quarterly issues of Faithful Steward. But more importantly, they help millions of people discover how to treasure God above all else.If this vision resonates with you, visit FaithFi.com/Give and join us.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I want to know if charities have to follow minimum wage laws in Florida or the United States.I have about $130,000 between two IRAs, I owe about $125,000 on my mortgage, and about $15,000 on an auto loan.

Author and speaker Amber Lia joins us to talk about her brand-new devotional, Untriggered: 60 Days of Transformation for Moms Who Struggle With Anger. Amber gets real about what it looks like to parent with grace, even when your kids are driving you crazy. We dive into the sometimes-controversial term "gentle parenting"—why it's often misunderstood, and why it doesn't mean being a doormat. Amber also shares practical tools for staying calm when you're feeling triggered, how to ditch the comparison trap, and why our kids don't need perfect parents...because there's no such thing. This one is full of encouragement, wisdom, and the kind of honesty we all need more of in the trenches of parenthood.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mike Hutchings, a pastor, trauma healing expert, and director of education for Global Awakening. We dive deep into how God wants to heal trauma, what it looks like to actually pray for people walking through PTSD, and how to discern God's voice even in seasons of silence. Mike shares his own story of being unexpectedly launched into trauma healing ministry, what it's like to obey God when it's risky, and how leaders can serve from a place of security and identity in Christ. If you've ever wrestled with trauma, doubted God's voice, or struggled to step out in faith, this episode will give you real hope and practical tools! __________________________________________________________   Ready for more?

It's so easy to assume the worst about others—to misread a friend's words, question someone's motives, or let suspicion take root in our hearts. But 1 Corinthians 13:7 reminds us that love “believes all things” and “hopes all things.” What does that look like in daily life? It's not about ignoring wisdom or discernment, but about extending grace, choosing trust over doubt, and reflecting the love of Christ in how we think about and respond to others. In this episode, we discuss why believing the best matters, why it's often difficult, and how we can live this out in marriage, friendships, parenting, and church life. There's freedom in choosing grace over suspicion, and it builds trust and unity in our relationships. My prayer is that this conversation encourages all of us to ask the Lord to shape our hearts to reflect His love more fully.
