Sermon Outline/Slides: Maintaining a Positive Attitude in Challenging Times

Shawna Goodman, who immigrated with her family from Canada to Israel some 10 years ago, believes in the formative power of an immersive summer camp experience. To that end, she founded Summer Camp Israel, to provide such a 10-day experience to Israeli youth. With financial support from the organization, thousands of Israeli children including those evacuated from the north and children of reservists, will take part in a camp experience this coming summer. Goodman spoke to KAN reporter about the organization. (Photo: Courtesy Isracamp) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, we're catching up with my friend, and friend of the podcast, Flint Del Sol.Last time Flint was here, his life looked very different than it does today. He was mid-transition, using they/them pronouns, had just started testosterone, and was still teaching. Since then, he's come out, transitioned in public on his social media profiles, survived doxxings, and received bomb threats at the school where he taught.It's been a lot.He chose to leave teaching and move to the desert with his husband for a while, and they've just recently sold their belongings and moved into an airstream with a plan to travel around the country to meet other trans people and gather stories and information to capture the trans experience in the US at this especially challenging and frightening time. And somehow in all of that, Flint also wrote a book called Teach Like an Ally that comes out on July 29, 2025. This book was written for educators who are struggling in environments where they can't openly state their allyship, can't fly rainbow flags, or can't teach or even have queer books in their classrooms. Even if you're not a teacher, this book will help you be a better ally to the queer kids in your life.Every time I talk to Flint, the conversation tends to go off in a million different directions, but it always ends up someplace super nerdy, and someplace deeply emotional. This one is no different. I hope you leave feeling as inspired and ready to do better work as I did.Check out the full episode to hear about:How having survived blowing up his own life before has shaped Flint's relationship to changeHow genuine curiosity and judgment get confused in ourselves and othersWhy it's totally normal to be at reduced capacity right now, and some ideas to help sustain youWhy even in an unfair, unjust world, it's worth continuing to fight for justiceHow deadlines, outlines, and leaning into his unique voice got Flint to the final draftWhy kids need access to an understanding of queer existence that is not fueled by negativity and hateHow making art is an essential part of how Flint processes events and feelingsFind out more about Flint Del Sol:Instagram: @justflintisfineTikTok: @justflintisfineTeach Like an Ally: An Educator's Guide to Nurturing LGBTQ+ StudentsFind out more about Mackenzie Dunham:Wildheartsociety.orgwildheartsociety.org/downloadsWild Heart Society on FacebookWild Heart Society on InstagramResources:Register for CampDonate to the Queer Community NetworkWild Heart Society MerchSeason 04 Ep 03: Fear vs. Curiosity: Being Alive and Trans with Flint, Just Flint Part 1Season 04 Ep 04: Fear vs. Curiosity: Being Alive and Trans with Flint, Just Flint Part 2"Untitled" (Portrait of Ross in L.A.), Félix González-TorresThe Smithsonian's queer erasure of an AIDS artwork should alarm us allGood Bones, Maggie Smith

When people face hardship, their instinctive response is often to seek extra mercy from Hashem. They might take on new halachic stringencies, elevate their level of kavanah during tefillah , and pray with greater emotion, sincerity, and even tears. They do their best to act with heightened spiritual awareness, all in the hope that these efforts will bring about a salvation. But when time passes and the situation doesn't improve—or even worsens—it becomes increasingly difficult to keep that spiritual momentum going. Some begin to feel that their prayers and efforts are going unnoticed. "If Hashem isn't responding," they wonder, "why should I keep trying?" For some, this disillusionment may evolve into frustration or anger, leading them to distance themselves from mitzvot or religious observance altogether. They may begin to question whether Hashem truly cares. But we must hold on to a critical truth: Hashem cares more than we can possibly understand . The fact that we haven't received what we've asked for is not a sign of divine indifference. Rather, it is a reflection of Hashem's infinite wisdom. He sees the complete picture—past, present, and future. He knows our mission in this world, and what is best for us at every stage, even when we cannot comprehend it. And when the struggle to stay spiritually committed intensifies, our avodah becomes all the more meaningful. Hashem cherishes every sincere effort we make—especially when it is difficult. A man in the real estate business shared his story. His industry had been facing a downturn, and one failed deal after another left him with no leads and growing discouragement. He reached a low point and, for the first time in his life, contemplated skipping shul on Shabbat. In frustration, he told himself he wouldn't go. That Friday afternoon, he had his usual call with a business associate—a non-Jewish Irish gentleman with whom he regularly discussed the market, business trends, and more. Every week, their call ended with the man wishing him, "Shabbat Shalom." But this week was different. As they were about to hang up, instead of the usual farewell, the man simply said, "Okay, go to shul now," and then ended the call. The timing was uncanny. For the first time in decades, this man had planned not to go to shul , and here was Hashem sending him a message—through the mouth of a gentile associate—urging him not to break his lifelong habit. It was a moment of clarity. Hashem had been watching and cherishing each one of this man's tefillot for over fifty years. He didn't want him to miss even one. The man went to shul that night, full of gratitude. He thanked Hashem for the unexpected chizuk , and for reminding him how deeply valued his efforts are. Yes, business may be tough. Life may feel overwhelming. But that should never diminish our trust in Hashem or our commitment to His mitzvot. In fact, when maintaining emunah is hardest, that's when it shines brightest.

This is such a great conversation! In this episode of She's Not Done Yet, I (Becky Berry) chat with Suzanne Maggio, author of “Estrellas: Moments of Illumination along the El Camino de Santiago,” about what she experienced on her first walk along the El Camino. Suzanne also hosts her own podcast, From Sparks to Light – Inspiring Stories for Challenging Times. Suzanne is a university lecturer in psychology, counseling and social work and comes from a large Italian family who didn't necessarily believe in asking for help. “Estrellas” is her second book. We had a powerful conversation about how she decided to embark on the walk, the people she met, and the myriad gifts she discovered along the way – including reconnecting with her husband. We also talked about one of my favorite coaching topics – expectations. Suzanne shares with us her experience in allowing the journey to remind her to appreciate the gift of the present moment, embracing and accepting how the days unfolded and the unique nature of the people you encounter along the way. One of my personal favorite parts of our conversation revolves around the work of Henri Nouwen, particularly his Five Lies of Identity: 1 – I have what I have. 2 – I am what I do. 3 – I am what others say or think about me. 4 – I am nothing more than my worst moment. 5 – I am nothing less than my best moment – and – “We are not what we do, we are not what we have, we are not what others think of us. Coming home is claiming the truth. I am the beloved child of a loving creator.” Suzanne includes Book Club questions at the end of the book and they're not like any book club questions you've encountered before! Instead of the standard book club fare, Suzanne presents the questions in grouping that include On Leaning In and Simplicity. After you've listened to our chat, I'm sure you will want to get the book in your hands quickly! Thanks in Advance for your help: I hope you enjoy this episode. If you did, don't keep it a secret!

In this episode of Magical Moments, we explore the power of simple yet profound prayers, intentions or devotions that can serve as anchors in uncertain times. With the world feeling heavy and overwhelming, it's essential to find a place of refuge within ourselves, a space of divine connection and inner peace.   Three of my favorite prayers that have offered me guidance and support when I needed it most.    The first is simply, Show me. Whether it's clarity on the next step, where to find support, or how to navigate a challenge, this prayer invites divine wisdom into our lives.    The second is Help me, a direct call for assistance when we feel lost, overwhelmed, or uncertain. By keeping these prayers open-ended, we step aside and allow something greater than ourselves to move in, offering guidance beyond what we might imagine.   The third prayer is one I carry throughout my day: Thank you. Practicing gratitude, even in difficult moments, shifts our consciousness and opens us to deeper learning. When we can acknowledge both what we like and what we resist, we create space for transformation. Gratitude is more than a thought; it's an energy that can soothe, expand, and realign us with divine support.   Try taking these simple prayers with you throughout your day and see how they can become powerful tools for shifting energy, inviting divine presence, and navigating life's uncertainties.    Helpful Links:   Download our FREE guide to Ignite Your Intuition, complete with audio teachings, work books, ceremony guidelines and a guided meditation. https://sarahnoble.com/ignite-your-intuition-optin/   Take the quiz!

This was not always a conscious endeavor for me, yet she pulled at my heart and led me on adventures far and wide and wild. She has taught me to live by spirals and wheels and cycles. To live each day as a ritual, knowing that I am the source of my life. Everything comes FROM me and that my obstacles are actually the path to living an even greater and wilder existence. She has shown me that true LEADERS rally for and with life, not against it.
