Podcasts about comforting

Week 7 of the This is Jesus Series Speaker: Scott Hickox Scripture: John 8:1-11

I'm using the 49 Week Bible Challenge for these blog posts. I encourage you to join me in this discipline. Today's readings are 2 Corinthians 1; Judges 4; 2 Chronicles 16; 17; Ezekiel 9.

This week on The Rotten Horror Picture Show Podcast, Clay and Amanda are diving deep into one of the most haunting, beautifully crafted horror films of the 2000s: A Tale of Two Sisters (2003), the South Korean psychological masterpiece from director Kim Jee-woon. It's a chilling, twisty story about two sisters returning home after time away in a mental institution — only to find their house filled with secrets, ghosts, and a deeply unsettling stepmother. Clay and Amanda explore its stunning cinematography, emotional depth, and how its story of grief and trauma slowly unravels into something much darker. It's elegant, tragic, and terrifying all at once — a cornerstone of early-2000s Asian horror.Now, that all sounds great and everything… but I gotta be honest with you — I grew up with brothers. Three of ‘em. Loud, smelly, cereal-devouring, video game-hoarding brothers. So, when I hear “a tale of two sisters,” I can't help but feel like I'm watching some kind of mysterious alien ritual. Sisters whispering secrets? Dressing each other's wounds? Comforting each other through unimaginable trauma? My brothers used to communicate exclusively in punches and burps. The only haunting in our house was the lingering smell of socks.I'm sitting there watching this movie thinking, “Okay, they're clearly bonded by something powerful and emotional… but where's the scene where they fight over who gets the last slice of pizza?” Still, even if I can't relate, I've gotta admit — the film's atmosphere got under my skin. Clay and Amanda dig into what makes it so effective, from its slow-burn pacing to its gut-punch finale that flips everything you thought you knew upside down.So, yeah. I might not get sisters — but I get a good ghost story. And this one? It'll haunt you, no matter how many brothers you've got.And don't forget to head over to patreon.com/thepenskyfile to follow Clay and Amanda down the muddy path of remakes and reboots too!

This special Comforting Moment invites you to pause the noise, settle your spirit, and rest in the calm rhythm of the harvest season. In YAIT Town, the air is cool, the garden is quiet, and the work is finally done. Here, we practice the art of receiving and releasing—taking in what still nourishes us, letting go of what no longer serves us, and blessing it all with gratitude. Through gentle narration and grounding soundscapes, storyteller Ama-Robin guides you into stillness—where breath slows, shoulders soften, and the mind unclenches. This isn't a story about doing more; it's a reminder that enough has already been done. Wherever you are, let this be your sacred pause. Come rest in the calm. Come gather your peace.

SummaryIn this episode of the Gird Up podcast, host Charlie Ungemach welcomes Pastor Matt Doebler, a missionary in Australia, to discuss the pressing issue of spiritual apathy among Christians. They explore the biblical story of Gideon as a metaphor for the journey from feeling like a 'nobody' to recognizing one's identity in Christ. The conversation delves into the importance of repentance, the role of the Holy Spirit, and the need for a purposeful life rooted in the Gospel. They also discuss the balance between self-improvement and faith, emphasizing that true meaning comes from an eternal perspective.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Gird Up Podcast and Mission02:09 Introducing Pastor Matt Doebler and His Work03:21 Exploring Spiritual Apathy and Its Implications06:20 The Connection Between Gideon and Spiritual Apathy08:25 The Gospel of Luke: A Focus on Nobodies09:40 Understanding Jesus' Call to Discipleship12:09 The Weight of Following Jesus13:43 The Comfort of the Gospel Amidst Apathy17:53 Living in the Tension of Law and Gospel19:13 The Struggle with Apathy and Faith23:50 Afflicting the Comfortable and Comforting the Afflicted25:36 Apathy as the Antithesis of Love32:36 Defining a Purposeful Life36:31 Meaningful Life vs. Full Life38:18 The Struggle of Apathy in Faith40:04 Meaningful Life: A Question of Purpose44:18 The Importance of Gratitude and Recognition46:01 Journey and Rest: A Christian Perspective51:54 The Role of Repentance in Christian Life55:37 Disordered Loves and the Need for Christ01:02:33 Integrating Self-Improvement with FaithMatt's Links:Order "More than Meh" on Amazon: https://a.co/d/dG2jVAKMatt's Gospel-Centered Substack: http://gospelcenteredmentoring.site/Matt's Author Page: https://matthewdoebler.us/Gird Up Links:https://youtube.com/@girdupministries4911?si=tbCa0SOiluVl8UFxhttps://www.instagram.com/girdup_be_a_man/https://www.girdupministries.com Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, we share soothing affirmations to bring warmth and comfort during lonely nights. We invite calm, compassion, and the reminder that you are never truly alone.https://selfpause.com/app/

Our words often fall short in conveying the depth of our feelings for those we hold dear, especially when we navigate the realms of grief and loss. Yet, like poetry, language can offer solace, ignite hope, and spark inspiration even in the wake of a loved one's passing, whether recent or years gone by.Today, you'll be immersed in a collection of poignant poems that gently cradle the themes of death, grief, and loss. And should it enhance the warmth and solace of these verses, imagine the voice reciting them as that of your beloved, whispering wisdom from beyond.May these verses embrace you in calmness and soothe your soul.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/find-your-daily-calm/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

EP #66 -  BONUS! -  Halloween Hotline

In this Comforting Moment episode, host and sistah-guide Ama-Robin Lofton invites you to sit on the porch with a glass of sweet tea at dusk. Together, we slow down, breathe, and remember what it feels like to belong. Through gentle storytelling and guided reflection, Ama-Robin reminds us that safety isn't always found in crowds or conversation, but in quiet company—the kind that sees you without words. This moment of rest and presence is part of the You Ain't Imagining This! sanctuary series, offering peace, grounding, and connection for Black listeners navigating a noisy world. Take a few minutes to exhale. To feel held. To remember that you are never alone. So pour yourself something warm, exhale, and come take your seat. Because on this porch, the light stays on for you.

Ash and Jack dive into John 8:31–32: “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” This episode explores the powerful paradox between discipline and freedom — how following Jesus isn’t about restriction, but about living in the fullness of truth. Jack shares how time in nature reminded her of God’s design for rest, rhythm, and perspective, while Ash unpacks why living by God’s Word can sometimes feel like losing freedom — but actually unlocks the deepest kind of peace. Together, they talk about how the world offers “comforting lies,” but Jesus offers “loving truth” that truly transforms us from the inside out.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"We always say our mac and cheese is like a break from the chaos. When things are crazy in your life, you just need a break. You don't have to go off the deep end and eat a bowl of some boxed XYZ... I want to eliminate that ‘Oh my God, what have I done?' part after you eat." —Myles Powell   Comfort food isn't just about taste—it's about trust, memories, and feeling good from the inside out. Too often, the foods we love come with a side of guilt or mystery ingredients, but there's a better way to enjoy the classics without compromise. Myles Powell grew up cherishing family meals, only to find that most store-bought comfort foods fell short of those memories. Driven by a passion for real ingredients and honest business, he set out to reinvent mac and cheese and more, building a brand that puts people and purpose first. Listen in for a no-nonsense look at building a clean-label food business, the real hurdles of funding and scaling, and how comfort food can be both nostalgic and nourishing. You'll walk away with practical insights, inspiration, and a fresh perspective on what's possible in your kitchen and beyond.   Meet Myles: Myles Powell is the founder of Myles Comfort Foods, a purpose-driven comfort food brand dedicated to clean-label, better-for-you classics. Inspired by family meals and a passion for real ingredients, Myles turned his love for authentic food into a business that puts transparency, quality, and emotional connection first. With experience in both self-funding and raising capital, he leads with resilience and a commitment to making comfort food that's as honest as it is delicious.   Website Instagram Facebook TikTok Spotify   Connect with NextGen Purpose: Website Facebook Instagram LinkedIn YouTube   Episode Highlights: 00:47 Better-For-You Mac&Cheese 05:31 Real Ingredients, Real Impact 08:27 The Challenges of Shipping Perishable Goods 10:35 Emotional Eating vs Food That Feels Good 13:26 Brand Values Over Product Hype 17:38 Funding the Dream, Learning to Pitch, and Handling Rejection 26:45 New Products on the Horizon

The Grave The Glory | John 11:17-27 | Jon Benzinger Watch on YouTube

Welcome back! This was a sweet video to make! I remember being ill and looking for this kind of video and I'm happy I finally filmed one! When I'm ill I find it mostly difficult because for some reason I struggle to think straight and so I really enjoy being able to fall asleep in a gentle pleasurable way. I truly hope you enjoy letting me take care of you! Many blessings and the sweetest of dreams!

You've heard it before: “Don't comfort a scared dog, you'll just reinforce the fear.” But… is that true? In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Allie and Emily break down the science behind fear, behavior, and reinforcement and why that common advice just doesn't hold up.They'll explore how fear functions differently than you may think, why your emotional state also matters, and how to tell if your pet actually wants your comfort. Plus, you'll learn how to comfort your dog in a way that supports their wellbeing and builds resilience. Whether you're navigating thunderstorms, vet visits, or everyday stressors, this episode is packed with actionable advice for the pet parent who wants to help their pet. TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 1️⃣ Fear is not a behavior and can't be reinforced like oneFear is a physiological and emotional response, not a behavior that can be increased with rewards. However, behaviors associated with fear can be reinforced, which is where people often get confused.2️⃣ Your emotional state matters just as much as your pet's“Your stress travels down the leash” isn't just a cute saying. If you're anxious, your pet likely will be too. Comforting your dog starts with regulating your own nervous system first.3️⃣ Learn when and how to comfort your petSome pets want snuggles, others want space. Comforting isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Learn how to listen to your learner and become the safe space they need when they are ready for it.For the full episode show notes, including additional resources, join us here.Join our upcoming free live webinar for force-free behavior professionals!3 Strategies to Uplevel Your Consulting Skills to Solve Behavior Challenges: Happier pets, enthusiastic clients, and a more rewarding career using the Pet Harmony Enrichment Framework covers our #1 tip to keep clients happy, working with you, and ultimately referring to you, and so much more.

Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle you just couldn’t break—where freedom feels promised but not lived out? In today’s devotional, Jennifer Slattery shares her deeply personal journey through disordered eating and emotional wounds. But more than that, she reveals the key to lasting freedom: learning to rely not on our own strength, but on Christ's Spirit within us. 2 Corinthians 3:17 reminds us, “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” This isn’t just a feel-good verse—it’s a declaration of the abundant life we’re meant to walk in every day.

An episode that is not about inflexibility—it's about emotional safety, sensory regulation, and being authentically ourselves in a world that often feels chaotic!In Episode 147 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr. Angela Kingdon explores Pillar 8 of Autistic Culture: Predictably Comforting, with special guest Daria Brown, author of We Chose Play: Raising an Autistic Child to Thrive and Feel Understood.Daria Brown has a Master's degree in Personality and Social Psychology. She has worked in the field of research, evaluation, and education for over 30 years at universities, not-for-profits, and government.Together, they discuss why predictability, routine, and familiarity are not only comforting but essential in autistic lives.This episode is especially meaningful for autistic listeners, families, and advocates who want to gain a deeper understanding of why consistency matters so deeply in autistic culture. Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Autistic Brains Crave PredictabilityOur nervous systems seek regulation over novelty. Familiar patterns reduce overwhelm and foster inner peace.* Routine as Emotional SafetyAutistic routines—like watching the same show, eating familiar foods, or repeating daily rituals—aren't rigid. They're tools for stability, helping manage emotional and sensory overload.* Cultural Examples of Comforting Predictability* Thomas the Tank Engine's structured stories* Dino Nuggets' consistent texture and taste* Andy Warhol's daily green underwear and soup-can art* Repetition as a Strength, Not a SymptomFrom stimming to re-watching favorite shows, repetition brings grounding comfort. It supports emotional regulation and fosters creativity.
