Podcasts about children

This week on Sober Awkward, Vic chats with Social Media Educator and (National Association for Children of Addiction) NACOA Ambassador - Sarah Drage about the strange and sometimes complicated world of sobriety on the internet.When we stop drinking, many of us head straight online. Suddenly there are sober coaches, Instagram accounts, communities, podcasts, hashtags, and an entire digital world devoted to not drinking. For some people it becomes a lifeline. For others… it can start to feel like just another thing we're slightly addicted to.Vic gets honest about her own relationship with the online sober world, the pressure to keep creating content, and the strange reality of sharing your life with people you've never met. She often tells herself, “If it helps one person, it's worth it.” But what happens when helping strangers online starts competing with real life, family time, and your own wellbeing?And then there's the other side of the internet. The rabbit holes. You open Instagram looking for a sober quote and twenty minutes later you've somehow ended up on a page where people are putting very strange things in very strange places. How does that happen? What are they doing? And why can't we look away?You'll have to listen to find out… let's just say it involves bottoms.Find out more about Sarah here @sarah_drage Find The Children of Alcoholics Podcast here - https://hello9a.podbean.com/Ted Talk - https://tr.ee/x6tGO8cVc5

John 3:1-21

This excerpt comes from Office Hours and focuses on a conversation about children's ministry. One CFE member shared that CFE is their primary church, and while they don't attend a regular church every Sunday, they are searching for a local church where their children can be involved. I'm offering my perspective, emphasizing my belief that kids need to be in embodied relationships with other children. __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________

And eventually, Zak Bagans buying the house, investigating it, and bulldozing it into history.Join us as we dive headfirst into the infamous Ammons Haunting, better known as the Demon House.

Is children’s church biblical—or is it a modern invention that’s reshaped the church in ways Scripture never intended? In this episode of The Magistrate, we examine the rise of age-segregated ministry and ask whether it aligns with the biblical pattern of worship. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture consistently presents families worshiping together—fathers, mothers, and children gathered under the Word. Yet today, many churches separate children into age-based programs shaped more by modern pragmatism and public education models than by Scripture. We explore the historical roots of children’s church, its connection to youth ministry movements, and the unintended consequences it may be producing—fragmented families, shallow discipleship, and a generation that often leaves the church after graduation. Then we make the case for a return to family-integrated worship and offer practical guidance for parents seeking to disciple their children in the life of the local church.

Today's guest is someone so many of you already know and love from IG and TikTok—Loren Rosko—and her story goes way beyond the viral song parodies and infertility anthems. Loren started making TikToks during COVID, at a time when so many of us were feeling isolated and searching for connection. What began as a creative outlet quickly turned into something much bigger—a space where she could share everything she was going through in life, including navigating infertility. In this episode, Ali and Loren get into all of it, including PCOS, miscarriage, IVF, loss, what it feels like to share something so personal to a community of millions. Loren also talks about being pregnant—and due very soon — with her baby girl, and how she's used humor, honesty, and music to make people feel less alone. Follow on IG: @lorenroskoEPISODE SPONSORS: THE WORK OF ART BOOK SERIESAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe 3-book bundle is now just $49 (normally $79)!The latest book in the Work of ART series, “You Are a Work of ART," is for every kiddo born through ART -- and the people who love them.PHERDALIG: @pherdal_sciencePherDal is the world's first and only FDA-cleared, sterile, at-home insemination kit designed to help people build their families in the comfort of home.

John 1:1-28

Alvina and Grace are recording together in Brooklyn! They discuss the overall state of the children's book industry, including an article by Harold Underdown, and talk about the effects of book banning and the drop in the school and library market, and discuss how it's just a tough market overall, sadly. They discuss middle grade books and page counts and how the days of bulking them up to make them look longer are behind us. They also discuss young adult publishing and the term "clean teen." For the Fortune Cookie segment, Alvina talks about the official announcement of her imprint "Alvina Ling Books" and logo reveal, and the great reception it received. And she also talks about what happened when they tried to secure the url AlvinaLingBooks.com.

Even with a new identity in Christ, we can still struggle with fear and anxiety.  In this series, Rabbi illustrates why God commanded the Children of Israel in Isaiah 41 to not be afraid, how it applies to us, and to always remember to be grateful for the gift of salvation God gave us through Yeshua. **** BECOME A MONTHLY PARTNER - https://djj.show/YTAPartner  **** DONATE - https://djj.show/YTADonate  **** TEACHING NOTES - https://djj.show/07l

Is America a cult? How can we help those trapped in cult-like thinking? Discussing her new book The Culting of America, Daniella Mestyanik Young, a US Army veteran, intelligence officer, and survivor of the notorious Children of God cult, joins Gaslit Nation to help us identify coercive control in our own lives, and in our White House.  Daniella breaks down the "sex cult math" of her upbringing, identifying the same tactics of coercive control now fueling the MAGA movement. Trump has pulled disparate groups into a singular cult of personality, where he is viewed as a "flawed vessel" of a "perfect God" delivering a Christian theocracy coming after our rights.  As a counter-terrorism expert, Daniella warns that the "arrogance" of Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner's war of choice in Iran is a classic cult leader trap. Tyrants lose when they start "sampling their own Kool-Aid," she points out. She also advises on how to help those in your life who have fallen down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole of cult-like thinking, to help them find their way to reality. This is an episode not to miss.  Save the date! At the Gaslit Nation Salon on Monday May 11 4pm ET, we'll start with a special reading of an excerpt of one of Andrea's screenplays.

Diana Duck teaches Dragon a new game, and Soldead Sparrow joins in! Narrator: Female Story Begins: 3:10 Dragon’s Little Lie Excerpt: After relaxing for quite some time, Dragon got up, eager to do something. They just weren't sure what they wanted to do. Sometimes, walking helped ideas come to mind, so Dragon set out on the forest path, heading toward the pond. Nearing the pond, Dragon heard a duck's quacking before they saw the duck sitting close to the water's edge. It was Diana Duck, who usually lived in the sanctuary. Dragon was surprised, but also very pleased to see her. They approached, smiling and waving.

Have you ever had a conversation with a loved one go in a completely different direction than what you saw coming? Your intention was there, but the way your loved one received it was nothing in the way you intended it?  Our good friend, Jason VanRuler, started to see this pattern in many of the people he had come into therapy. Conversations between people -- where everything was at stake -- and the intentions were there, but someone inevitably walked away feeling hurt, unseen, or even abandoning the relationship altogether. What one person meant isn't what the other person heard. So Jason asked himself, “Why does it sometimes land well, and other times not?”The more research he did, the more he learned predictable patterns that led to 5 primary communication types: Peace, Advocate, Thinking, Harbor, and Spark. Each one with a strength and each one with an opportunity. Not only that, each person has their own primary and secondary type. In this episode, Jason unveils each type, how we develop our own, and how we can better understand how our spouse, kids, and loved ones communicate with us. We get into marital dynamics and why we usually marry someone with similar secondary type, but the trouble that can arise when we realize we don't have the same primary one. We also talk about how knowing the types can help us communicate at a deeper level with our kids. Time Stamps: 0:00 Introduction 1:18 Jason VanRuler joins the show!4:34 Why these communication types matters 6:00 Jason introduces the 5 PATHS of communication11:16 Where our personal communication style comes from 14:05 Strengths and weaknesses of each communication type 20:20 The communication types in our children and how we give what we didn't get25:05 How different communication types serve us in marriage Show Notes: Get Jason's new book Discovering Your Communication Type: The 5 Paths to Deeper Connections and Stronger Relationships: https://amzn.to/4sZzbwc Check out Jason's website: www.jasonvr.comReserve your seat for Tender & Fierce Fall Cohort beginning August 17, 2026: https://www.famousathome.com/offers/V75F6bY2Looking for a marriage intensive with Famous at Home?

We talk about the pressures around timing, fertility, career, and spacing, and why this is one of those decisions that depends entirely on the individual woman, her life, and what feels right to her.Next, we get into your questions, starting with a mother who experienced a very fast labor and wants to know if precipitous birth can be prevented and how to better handle it mentally if it happens again. Another listener shares her experience of a difficult pushing stage that resulted in ruptured blood vessels in her eyes and a long recovery from an anal fissure, and asks what she may have done wrong. We talk about why women so often assume fault in these situations and what actually influences outcomes in the pushing stage. We also address pregnancy weight gain, how much control women really have over it, and whether calorie restriction or tracking has any place in pregnancy.As always, we close with a round of quickies covering the purple line in labor, nursing to sleep, deciding whether to have a second child, ways to reduce the risk of preeclampsia, tips for managing morning sickness, hand pumping while breastfeeding, long first labors, frequent night waking, evening milk supply, shoulder dystocia, and more.Thank you for your excellent questions and please continue to call them in to our hotline at 802-438-3696 or 802-GET-DOWN.**********Send us Fan Mail Needed

It's the LAST FREE EPISODE of Midnight Spook Show, and comedians Sean Millea & Josie Marcellino join Zac Amico for one last blast from the 1980's. A school bus full of children turned radioactive zombies, armed with only black fingernails and parental appeal, wreaks havoc on a small unsuspecting town. It's none other than The Children!

Wisdom Booklet 36 taught that if a woman doesn't cry out during an attack, God holds her equally guilty with her attacker. Children as young as five studied this material. The Duggar family curriculum trained girls to view their bodies as spiritual hazards, quizzed them on “eye traps” in their clothing, and rewrote biblical stories of victimized women to blame the victims. A counseling document assumed abuse survivors were partly at fault. And Bill Gothard — the author — was accused of sexual harassment by more than thirty women. We go inside the gender teachings and the silence they were designed to produce.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Luke 24:13-53

Elmo, Big Bird, and Cookie Monster probably helped raise you, and the woman now leading Sesame Street traces her path there back to one transformative act: adopting her daughter Lily from China. Before joining Sesame Workshop, Sherrie Westin had already built a remarkable career at ABC News and as one of the highest-ranking women in George H.W. Bush's White House. On this episode, Sherrie shares how adopting Lily in 1995 sparked a profound pivot, and how that personal transformation shaped her 26-year journey at the helm of one of the most beloved nonprofits in the world. She opens up about leading the creation of Julia, Sesame Street's first autistic Muppet, securing a landmark $100 million grant to bring early education to refugee children across the globe, and navigating the financial uncertainty that ultimately led to a groundbreaking new deal with Netflix.

A toddler takes their first bite of peanut butter and breaks out in hives. A parent sits across from you, equal parts frightened and overwhelmed, asking the question you hear every day, "What happens now?" Food allergies have long lived at the intersection of fear and uncertainty, for families and clinicians alike. But that story is changing. A landscape once defined by strict avoidance is rapidly evolving into proactive management, personalized risk assessment, and emerging therapies that are reshaping outcomes. In this episode, we step into that evolving world. From early introduction and updated diagnostic strategies to the expanding role of oral immunotherapy and biologics, we'll unpack what's here, what's coming, and what it means for how you care for patients in real time.   Two allergy experts, David Fleischer, MD, and Allison Hicks, MD, join us for this episode. Dr. Fleischer is the Section Head of Allergy and Immunology, as well as the Director of the Allergy and Immunology Center at Children's Hospital Colorado. Dr. Hicks is the Director of Food and Immunotherapies. They both teach at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

Sarah Barrass lived in the home with her six children, and her half-brother, Brandon Machin, was frequently present. Social services became involved after allegations involving two of the children, which led to increased monitoring of the household.As the investigation continued, authorities began examining the family structure and welfare conditions inside the home. On May 23, 2019, police were called to the residence following reports of a serious incident. When officers entered the property, they found two of the children, Blake and Tristan Barrass, unresponsive in their beds.

Luke 23:44-24:12

(Exodus 6:1-9) Moses has delivered God's message to Pharaoh and to the people. You would think this would be good news to the Children of Israel, but 300 years of slavery does something to a people.

Lewis explains why families and schools need a developmental lens, setting early boundaries and gradually releasing independence instead of handing kids sudden, unrestricted access, including what he calls “potted plant parenting.” The conversation also covers red flags for dangerous strangers online, plus how to approach AI in education with digital literacy, ethics, and guardrails that protect students' human skills while helping teachers work more efficiently.

How do you know when the Lord has finished adding children to your family? Simple enough question, but something, if you are married, you have likely asked yourself. This week we talk family planning. The post How many children CAN I have? appeared first on Sheologians.

It could not be otherwise but that Christianity be a singing faith. The founder sang. We are a singing people because we are the children of a singing God.

Ramesses is famous for fathering 100+ children. But what did all these princes and princesses do? Prof. Peter Brand joins us once more to explain the lives and roles of these children, how we know about them (or don't), what's up with those "Daughter Wives," and where all the 100+ children might be buried. Also, I read the entire list of children (all 100+) in their known order, from the monuments. Music by Luke Chaos. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
