(From: https://www.brettullman.com/media_navigating_everything/) Brett Ullman is a well known youth culture, media and mental health expert who has been speaking on these subjects for 25 years.

On Sunday we had the second of three talks from Brett Ullman. This week we will be hearing his talk called "Parenting - Navigating Everything" that touched on the good, the bad and the ugly of parenting and how to care for our young people today with an intergen mindset. (From https://www.brettullman.com/navigating-everything/) We all want the best for our kids but which parenting information do we choose? With over 75,000 parenting books produced in the past 21 years and the many voices, articles and online resources available, the task of figuring out where to turn for parenting advice is overwhelming. Some foundational parenting questions all parents must consider: What are Parenting Styles and which ones should I be using in my parenting? How can I gain better communication skills and use them with my children? What does spending time with my kids look like? How do I effectively discipline my children? Various aspects of home life also need addressing, with each section being a sizeable discussion on their own. In this talk I will look at where parents can begin these discussions, (on-ramps) and give them practical tools so they can effectively talk with their kids about all of the following areas: Family Discipleship (how to raise our kids in our Christian faith) Health (mental, emotional, physical) Sexuality (pornography, dating, marriage) Media (TV, movies, music, social media) Drug / Alcohol use & abuse Education Finances More on Brett from his website: Brett works as a full time speaker "[travelling] North America speaking to teens, young adults, leaders, and parents on topics including parenting, mental health, media, marriage, men, pornography, and dating. Brett's seminars engage and challenge attendees to try and connect our ancient faith with our modern culture we live in. Participants are inspired to reflect on what we know, what we believe and how our faith ought to serve as the lens through which we view and engage tough conversations in our society today."

On Sunday we had the first of three talks from Brett Ullman. This week we will be hearing his talk called "The Walking Wounded" on mental health. (From https://www.brettullman.com/the-walking-wounded/) When we are surrounded by these heightened emotions and feelings life becomes one that is isolated from others and we begin to be full of questions instead of answers and we do not know what will work, or where to turn. How do we begin our journey towards hope, healing, redemption, rescue, and a restoration to wholeness? Where and when does our journey back to life begin again? As a Follower of the Way (A Christian) What about our faith? How does our faith fit into our healing journey? This talk has no cliches, no Christianese and does not put forward promises of false hope. Brett Ullman in The Walking Wounded begins to address how to walk back towards healing and away from our emotions, feelings and thoughts that are keeping us paralyzed in life. No shame, fear, or hiding is required as we are safe to journey towards healing together. There is Hope for the Walking Wounded. More on Brett from his website: Brett works as a full time speaker "[travelling] North America speaking to teens, young adults, leaders, and parents on topics including parenting, mental health, media, marriage, men, pornography, and dating. Brett's seminars engage and challenge attendees to try and connect our ancient faith with our modern culture we live in.

What do you hope your students' relationship is like with their phone? What's the ideal way for an adolescent to interact with technology? What's the right amount of screen time per day? These are the questions that we should be wrestling with as youth workers. Instead, teenagers often see adults simply becoming frustrated around their use of technology. But what if we could be thoughtful about the conversation and think strategically about how to help teenagers practically engage better with the devices that are so accessible to them?

Welcome to episode #76!This week, Matt and Braden chat with author and speaker, Brett Ullman, about the connection between sex and media and what the church can do about it!Media can take us down a dark path - but it doesn't have toMedia can be bad, but it can also be good. Really, our phones are nothing until we do something with them. The algorithms will show you what you've shown to be interested in, so click on things and follow pages that are healthy and won't bring up triggering posts in the future. We have to be responsible in our activity online so that ResponsibleLet's be proactiveInstead of talking about pornography to men's groups on a Tuesday night, let's address it proactively from the pulpit. Parents, talk to your kids as they're growing up about sex and porn. What are they going to do when their friend brings it out on the bus? What should parents do when their kids see porn at home? We need to be proactive and make this a regular conversation so that nobody is left in the dark when sexual sin is exposed in their lives, homes, churches, or bible schools.Be reactivePastors and parents - if you've not responded well to porn use, or haven't even addressed it at all, you can always make it right! Apologize and have a broken heart for where you've missed it. Bring it up to your congregation or initiate that conversation with your children. When you apologize, it opens the conversation with humility and you instantly become a safe place for people or kids to come to share whatever burdens they have been carrying on their own.Share this with your friendsWho do you know that can benefit from this podcast and other episodes coming in the future?

Welcome to episode #75!This week, Matt and Braden chat with author and speaker, Brett Ullman, about mental health and mental illness, and what affect pornography can have on mental health.Mental health is different than mental illnessWe have more control over mental health than mental illness. We can control health by doing things like eating well, sleeping, praying, exercising, and a variety of other things. Illness, though, is when schizophrenia, chemical-based depression, and other properly diagnosed mental illnesses comes into play and you need a different approach to treatment depending on what is really going on.Some helping words can hurtPeople want to help those struggling with mental health so they'll say things like, "the answer is Jesus" without explaining what that might mean or being open to solutions that are less 'spiritual' and more practical, like going to a sleep clinic. To understand how to help somebody well, it's helpful to ask those struggling with mental health what they need and how they can be supported. Otherwise, well-meaning people who want to help might push the hurting person into deeper despair without even knowing.The mental health connection to pornPorn is an escape that people use when they feel so bad in life because of mental health struggles. They need to learn better ways to cope with struggles, whether that's meds or just implementing better coping strategies. If somebody is struggling with both porn and mental health, they should prioritize their focus on the mental health issue rather than just trying to quit porn, because doing that might take care of both. If it doesn't, then they can deal with porn from a better starting point if they've first improved in their health.Share this with your friendsWho do you know that can benefit from this podcast and other episodes coming in the future?

Welcome to episode #74!This week, Matt and Braden relieve some guilt people feel about their sexual desires by differentiating between lust and sexual desire.God gave you a sexual desireWhen porn has run rampant in our lives, it's common to wish for no more sexual desire. We need to instead pray for wisdom in discerning what is lust and what is a healthy sexual desire. God gave us sexual desires to be attracted to the people we get married to and see God's beauty, among many other reasons. He wants us to crave our spouses sexually, so don't pray away your sexual desire. Pray for the wisdom and strength to have your true sexual desires come to the forefront so you can act on them, rather than giving into lust.It's okay to notice beautiful peopleMany people have guilt or shame when they notice beautiful people. It's common to think that noticing someone is beautiful is automatically lust, so you don't go near that person or see them for who they really are. If you can be around beautiful people and know simply as a fact that they're attractive, then you won't go into infatuation or lust where you just think sexual thoughts. Jesus would never have bounced His eyes to turn away from someone who was beautiful and we don't have to either if we're in a healthy spot. We can instead see each person for who they really are.Know the lines that are crossed when it's lustLust acts impulsively in the moment. It's self-focused and reminiscent of a dog in heat. When lust takes over, there is no thought about the other person's well-being, value, or pleasure and the person gets to work instantly, whether practically or in their minds. Lust also plays on our insecurities so when we feel insecure, it promises to make us feel better, no matter what the insecurity is. It's always a lie and never satisfies. Sexual desires acted on in godly ways are under control, have the other person in mind, and waits until the time when God gives the green light to act.Share this with your friendsWho do you know that can benefit from this podcast and other episodes coming in the future?

Is it possible to live well while you're struggling with mental illness? And does the church have a role in helping those living with mental illness? Studies show when people are struggling with mental illness the first place they usually turn to is the church. But many people do not experience the church as a friendly plan when they are struggling with mental/emotional challenges.

In this episode, Jason introduces the listener to four Canadian authors and their respective ministries and recent books. Aaron White - Jason’s conversation with Aaron White explores his ministry on the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver. The DTES is a neighbourhood plagued by extreme poverty, addiction, and trafficking. But that is not the primary story that Aaron hopes to tell. Overwhelming the obvious brokenness of the DTES, is the tangible presence of God, the grace of the Gospel and the beauty of image bearers who are known and loved by their Creator — friends and neighbours who are, in many ways, our best teachers about the above spiritual realities. Andy Steiger - Andy Steiger is the director of Apologetics Canada. He has recently written a book with Zondervan titled, Reclaimed. Jason and Andy discuss the importance and relevance of Christian apologetics, which involves providing reasons for our hope in Jesus with gentleness, respect, and cultural nuance. Alastair Sterne - Alastair is a pastor and a church planter in Vancouver, BC. His congregation St. Peter Fireside, has been serving and loving the city for the last nine years. Their conversation dives into Sterne’s story of being called into ministry with his wife and how he ended up in the city of Vancouver. Brett Ullman - Brett is a former high school teacher. He attends Sanctus Church in Ontario and is a well-known communicator addressing issues of mental health, pornography, sexuality, media, and parenting across Canada. ccln.ca/season2

Sid invited you to a webinar about how to talk about porn with students. That is actually happening on July 23 and you can find more details HERE. Today’s conversation is critical when you realize how pervasive and how destructive pornography is within your youth ministry. Teenagers' brains are being rewired, their understanding of intimacy is being hijacked, and their time is being filled by this powerful addiction. Unfortunately, the shame that porn brings often diminishes the ability to have honest conversations so that teenagers can find hope and healing. Join in today’s episode as Sid and Jeremy interview Brett Ullman on the importance of talking more about pornography as well as some of the practical ways that you can spark this conversation.

Do you ever get the feeling that society views kids as troublemakers, and parents as the good guys? We need to be careful about stereotypes—and mindful of where we point fingers. A better approach is to consider how to establish a strong foundation that can help kids make great decisions now and in the future. Yes, part of being a kid is to test the waters, to experiment, and to try new things. As we’ve said before, curiosity is what drives learning. But the truth is, there are tons of great kids out there. And they’re all looking for answers on how to navigate every aspect of life. They need—and crave!—guidance from parents and mentors who genuinely care about their health and well-being. Digital devices tend to amplify our fears about teen attitude and risky behavior. No doubt! There are plenty of online dangers to be found. Never mind that the tech itself is inherently addictive. Left to navigate the crazy digital world on their own, will kids be ready? Our guest, Brett Ullman, author of the book, Parenting: Navigating Everything, explains how you can connect with your kids, establish a strong relational foundation, and give them skills they need to thrive online and off. ...

Who is he? Brett Ullman travels North America speaking to teens, young adults, leaders and parents on topics that most people are uncomfortable talking about including mental health, sex, pornography, dating, media and what it means to 'be a man.’ Brett’s seminars engage and challenge attendees to try and connect their ancient faith with the modern culture we live in. What is he talking about? As we continue our conversation, Brett highlights to us that this is truly a battle we are facing with mental health. This is not something we can become apathetic about nor is it a simple ‘fix.’ We are wholistic beings so mental health is actually impacted by our body, mind and soul. Why does this matter? As leaders in organizations, families, etc. we can begin to make changes for the Gen Zs around us to help them work through their own mental health journey. The changes you make will impact the Gen Zers around you now and in addition to that, the changes will set a precedent for anyone looking to join your organizations in the future.
Who is he? Brett Ullman travels North America speaking to teens, young adults, leaders and parents on topics that most people are uncomfortable talking about including mental health, sex, pornography, dating, media and what it means to 'be a man.’ Brett’s seminars engage and challenge attendees to try and connect their ancient faith with the modern culture we live in. What is he talking about? Brett is speaking from his own experience with mental health and gives great insight as to how we cannot blame the increase of mental health over the last 15 years (25-40%) to one thing. It is not this or that, it is this and that. The increase of mental health is a complex issue involving the increase of smartphones, yes, but also the lack of parenting, healthy diets, daily exercise, involved family lives and the increase of busyness. Why does this matter? In part one of our conversation today, Brett shares his insights with mental health and how we cannot be blaming this generation’s increase in mental health simply on the increase of screens/smartphones. We need to take responsibility for the way we are raising children in this generation, treating them in our organizations and how we are processing our own mental health journeys.
