Send us Fan MailHave you ever caught yourself describing the same frustrating circumstance over and over again?Maybe it's your health.Your finances.Your business.Your relationships.Your energy.You talk about it. You explain it. You track it. You think about it all day long.And then one day, you realize: If I don't shift this, I may keep creating more of the very thing I don't want.That happened to me recently.I had been feeling physically exhausted, and I found myself talking about it constantly. I was tracking my sleep, watching my readiness scores, and explaining to people why I felt the way I felt.Then I heard one clear phrase:“Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.'”And honestly? It felt like a wake-up call. There are moments when we have to stop rehearsing the problem and start speaking the promise.The Bible says that life and death are in the power of the tongue. That means our words matter. We cannot speak exhaustion, defeat, lack, and confusion every single day and then expect to wake up energized, hopeful, and ready to move forward.This isn't about pretending the pain doesn't exist.It isn't about denying reality.It's about refusing to let the circumstance write the script for your future.If you don't know what to do in your business, stop repeating, “I have no idea what to do.” Instead, remind yourself: God gives wisdom liberally. I have the mind of Christ. My steps are ordered.If your health feels depleted, stop constantly declaring that you're tired and worn out.Start saying: Every day, I'm getting stronger. My body is renewing. I'm taking the steps that support the future I want.If your finances feel tight, don't let lack become your language. Speak provision. Speak wisdom. Speak increase. Then take the action steps that line up with those words.Your spirit is always listening. And your words have a way of shaping what your mind notices, how you act, and the path you begin to walk.So here's my challenge for you:Go seven days without grumbling and complaining.When you catch yourself repeating the old narrative, stop.Flip the script.Say what God says.Speak life over the barren places.Speak wisdom over confusion.Speak strength over weakness. Speak provision over lack.Don't get sloppy with your words. Because eventually, you will eat the fruit of what you keep speaking. And I want that fruit to be good.

The Acorn and the Oak: Development of Doctrine, Part 2 Picking up right where Part 1 left off, Greg and Cory apply the principles of authentic development to some of today's most contested questions. They examine recent papal teaching on capital punishment and just war as examples still unfolding in the life of the Church, then look at three proposals (female ordination, Communion for those in irregular marriages, and same-sex unions) that the Church has consistently resisted. Along the way they show why these do not meet Newman's criteria for genuine development and how the Magisterium, guided by the Holy Spirit, discerns growth from corruption. Honest, hopeful, and pastorally grounded—this episode models how faithful Catholics can engage difficult topics without anxiety or compromise.

Educator and homeschool mentor Christy Faith is brutally clear on what's driving so many families to rethink education. On this mash-up of the best moments from previous conversations with Christy Faith on The Brainy Moms Podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy talk with her about the gap between what modern kids need and what mass schooling often rewards, and why more parents are choosing homeschooling for school environment, mental health, and real learning instead of constant performance.Christy walks through why the structure of compulsory schooling can stay archaic even as we learn more about the brain, motivation, and child development. We dig into teen stress and anxiety, how letter grades can turn learning into identity, and why bullying can become normalized trauma. Then we take on the socialization debate head-on by defining what healthy socialization actually looks like, why age mixing matters, and how peer orientation and attachment theory help explain what kids are really hungry for.You'll also get practical next steps: why “just tell me what curriculum to buy” is the wrong starting point, how deschooling creates breathing room, what to watch for with reading and math foundations, and how homeschool transcripts and college admissions work in real life. If you know parents on the fence about homeschooling, share this conversation with them. Then subscribe and leave a review so more families can find it.

The Acorn and the Oak: Development of Doctrine, Part 1. In this first part of our conversation with Cory, we explore the beautiful Catholic understanding of how doctrine develops. Far from “making things up” or changing with the culture, the Church deepens her grasp of the unchanging deposit of faith handed on by the apostles. Greg and Cory unpack Saint John Henry Newman's classic idea, trace its roots to the early Church, and walk through clear, non-controversial examples like the Trinity, Christ's two natures, sacramental theology, and the Marian dogmas. Using the acorn-to-oak image and Newman's seven notes, they show how the faith stays the same while growing richer and more articulate over time. Perfect for Protestants wondering about “Catholic additions” and anyone wanting to understand how the Church avoids both fundamentalism and fluidity.

Send us Fan MailHave you ever found yourself wanting to go back to something you already know you've outgrown?Maybe it's an old relationship.An old habit.A scarcity mindset.A way of thinking that feels familiar, even though it keeps you small.This morning, I sat down in my chair and heard one clear phrase in my spirit:Don't go back to Egypt.And I knew immediately what it meant.In the Bible, Egypt wasn't just a place. It represented bondage, captivity, limitation, and survival. The Israelites physically left Egypt in one night, but it took much longer to get the mindset of Egypt out of them.And honestly? I think we all have places like that.We can leave a toxic relationship but still carry toxic thinking.We can leave scarcity but still make every decision from fear.We can leave insecurity but still crave validation from everyone around us.We can step into freedom but still feel pulled backward by familiarity.That's the danger.Sometimes bondage feels safer simply because it's predictable. Freedom feels unfamiliar. Growth feels uncomfortable. The wilderness feels uncertain. But discomfort does not mean you're going in the wrong direction.In this episode, I'm talking about how to stop romanticizing the very things God delivered you from and how to renew your mind for the next season of your life.Because you cannot sustain a promised-land life with a slave mentality.You have to think differently. Speak differently.  Expect differently. And sometimes, you have to bless the past while deciding it no longer belongs in your future.I also share a personal moment when I realized I was being drawn back toward a relationship from my past. There was nothing wrong with the person, but I knew it wasn't where my future was. And sometimes that's the hardest part: recognizing that something can be good, meaningful, and valuable for a season without being meant to continue forever.If you've been circling the same mountain, revisiting the same fear, or feeling tempted to shrink back into what's comfortable, this episode is for you.Your future self will thank you for moving forward.Your future generations will thank you for moving forward.And the life God has for you is too important to spend staring into the rearview mirror.Don't go back to Egypt.Keep putting one foot in front of the other.Keep renewing your mind.Keep moving forward.You truly are more!Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

In Episode 3 of the series Mary in the Dock: Ordinary or Extraordinary?, host Greg Smith puts the Catholic doctrine of Mary as the New Eve on trial. Protestants often object that it's typology overreach with no explicit New Testament warrant, risks elevating Mary at Christ's expense, and developed too late under possible pagan influence. Greg gives the strongest objections a full, fair hearing, then delivers a robust Catholic defense rooted in Genesis 3:15 (the protoevangelium of total enmity between the woman and the serpent), the Annunciation in Luke 1 (Mary's fiat of obedience undoing Eve's disobedience), and the clear teaching of the early Church Fathers like Justin Martyr and Irenaeus writing already in the second century. Far from competing with Christ, the New Eve doctrine is thoroughly Christocentric—it magnifies the redemption won by the New Adam and sets the stage for every other Marian teaching. Listeners serve as the jury in this conversational courtroom discussion that asks the key question: is Mary simply an ordinary woman God used for a moment, or the extraordinary New Eve the Church has proclaimed since the apostolic age? Perfect for curious non-Catholics, Protestant pastors investigating Catholicism, and cradle Catholics deepening their faith. SUPPORT THIS SHOW Considering Catholicism is 100% listener-supported.

Do you love the tips from Tidy Dad on Instagram? Then you'll love this hour with us! On this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy sit down with Tyler Moore, better known as Tidy Dad, to talk about small space living, decluttering, and the kind of simple home organization that actually holds up in real family life.Tyler shares what it's like parenting three daughters in a NYC triple bunk setup in 750 square feet, why an early bedtime boundary can be a sanity saver, and how “just enough” square footage can protect what matters more: time, flexibility, and the ability to say yes to the life you want. We also unpack the deeper idea behind “tidy” as more than clean counters. For Tyler, tidying is about clearing visual clutter and decision fatigue, building systems where everything has a home, and aiming for “easily tidied” instead of “always tidy.”Because many of you are homeschooling or supporting learning at home, we dig into how his teacher brain shapes his approach: kid independence, supply stations that make sense, and routines that serve you rather than control you. You'll also hear practical strategies like starting small when decluttering, toy rotation and “yes spaces” for younger kids, and his favorite concept of all, scruffy hospitality: invite people in, stop apologizing, and just make sure the bathroom is clean.If this conversation helps you rethink your space, your stuff, or your routines, subscribe, share it with a friend who feels buried by clutter, and leave a review so more parents can find us.ABOUT US:The Brainy Moms is a parenting podcast hosted by cognitive psychologist Dr. Amy Moore and Sandy Zamalis.

Episode 221: Automate Your Lead Generation with our FREE online course: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/auto-leads-course-freeWithout strong testimonials and case studies, online business owners are forced to rely solely on their own claims to make sales — a much harder and slower path to conversions, especially with higher-ticket offers.In this episode, Preston Zeller teaches us how to build a powerful library of social proof by conducting structured video interviews with past clients, how to reach out in a personalized way that gets a "yes," the three types of testimonials and which ones actually move buyers, and how to extract compelling before-and-after stories even when results are hard to quantify.About Preston Zeller: Preston is a faith-tech founder, growth executive, documentary filmmaker, and abstract artist with 15 years of experience scaling companies from $25M to $300M ARR.

Pastor Kevin preaches this week on how we are to "Speak To The Mountain" from Zechariah 4:6-10.

Jessica and Kelly are back for another real-life check-in, and summer is officially on the horizon. In this episode, they get into all of it: the exhausting reality of trying to figure out what to do with your tween when camp is impossible to get into, the surprisingly calm approach Jessica is taking to sending Gabby off to Centre College, the dorm prep rabbit hole (sheets, storage units, and yes, whether lofts are still a thing), kids learning to drive, and why both of them are just ready to breathe. If you are in the thick of the school-to-summer transition and you need someone to tell you that "we'll figure it out" is a perfectly valid plan, this one is for you. In This Episode: The tween and teen summer gap: what do you do with kids who are too old for camp and too young for a job? Kelly gets real about camp competition in Chicago and why she is done fighting for it. Gabby's heading to Centre College in Kentucky this fall, and Jessica is taking a refreshingly low-key approach to dorm prep -- no stress, no Amazon cart yet, just waiting until she gets there and knows what she actually needs. Roommate connections, Facebook parent groups, storage units, and the unexpected sisterhood of moms who have already been through it. Wes and Dominic are both in the permit stage, and Jessica and Kelly talk about the real freedom (and the real fear) of handing the wheel to your teenager. Why summer feels like an exhale: no homework, no lunch packing, no schedule checking. Just slower mornings and fewer mental tabs open. A little preview of what is coming this month on Chasing Brighter -- June is all about joy and intentional living, and these two are ready for it.

In Episode 2 of the series Mary in the Dock: Ordinary or Extraordinary?, host Greg Smith puts the Catholic doctrine of Mary as Mother of God (Theotokos) on trial. Many modern evangelicals recoil at the title, calling it blasphemous or idolatrous and unknowingly echoing the ancient Nestorian heresy that split Christ in two. Greg gives the strongest Protestant objections a full, fair hearing — the lack of an explicit Bible verse, the risk of deifying Mary, and the historical cautions from Calvin — then delivers a robust Catholic defense rooted in Luke 1:43 (“mother of my Lord”), the Council of Ephesus (431 AD), and the affirmations of classical Reformers like Luther (“she is rightly called… the Mother of God”), Zwingli, and the Anglican Articles. Far from Marian excess, the doctrine safeguards the full reality of the Incarnation and the infinite value of Christ's atonement. Listeners serve as the jury in this conversational yet intellectually sharp courtroom discussion that asks the key question: is Mary simply an ordinary woman God used for a moment, or the extraordinary God-bearer the Church has proclaimed for two thousand years? Perfect for curious non-Catholics, Protestant pastors investigating Catholicism, and cradle Catholics deepening their faith. SUPPORT THIS SHOW Considering Catholicism is 100% listener-supported.

 Pastor KJay launch a life-changing new series, A Series on Forgiveness.Today's message title: Let It Go

In the powerful opening episode of the new series Mary in the Dock: Ordinary or Extraordinary?, host Greg Smith puts the Catholic practice of Marian devotion on trial. Are prayers like the Hail Mary and the Rosary, asking for Mary's intercession, and venerating her images really idolatry — or are they biblical, Christ-centered honor for the Mother of our Lord? Greg gives the strongest Protestant objections a full, fair hearing (sola scriptura, the one-mediator objection, and claims of late pagan corruption), then delivers a robust Catholic defense rooted in Scripture, the Greek of the New Testament, and the earliest Church Fathers — including evidence of Marian prayers from the third century, long before Constantine. Listeners serve as the jury in this conversational yet intellectually sharp courtroom-style discussion that tackles one of the most common stumbling blocks for Protestants investigating Catholicism. Whether you're a curious non-Catholic, a Protestant pastor wrestling with these issues, or a cradle Catholic wanting to explain the faith more clearly, this episode will challenge you to decide: is Mary simply an ordinary woman, or the extraordinary New Eve the Church has always proclaimed?

Send us Fan MailI want to talk to you today about something that is constantly happening around us…The gravitational pull toward average. Because whether you realize it or not, there's always pressure trying to pull you into mediocrity.Average thinking.Average effort.Average expectations.Average faith.And if you do nothing intentionally…the drift is inevitable.In this episode, I break down why no one accidentally becomes extraordinary.Nobody unintentionally fulfills purpose. Nobody coasts into calling. The truth is you were never created to blend in.You were created to shine. We look at Matthew 5 and the powerful reminder that we are called to be salt and light in this earth.Salt changes environments. Light changes atmospheres.Neither one conforms to its surroundings they transform them.And that's what you are called to do too.But here's the challenge:The world constantly tries to normalize compromise, passivity, fear, and comfort.“Don't stand out.”“Don't be too bold.”“Lower your standards.”“Just fit in.”But God says the opposite. Shine.In this episode, I talk about:The slow drift toward average and how it happensWhy subtle compromise is more dangerous than dramatic failureThe difference between conformity and transformationHow Caleb carried a “different spirit”Why your environment matters more than you thinkAnd how to actively resist the pull toward mediocrityBecause average is never something people choose intentionally. It's where drift takes them.And if you want to walk fully in your purpose… you have to become intentional.Intentional with your thoughts.Intentional with your standards.Intentional with your faith.Intentional with who you allow to shape your thinking.I believe this with everything in me:The world does not need a watered-down version of you.It needs your light.Your boldness.Your obedience.Your conviction.So today, I want you to ask yourself—Where have I started settling? Where have I started drifting? And what would happen if I chose to fully follow God again with a different spirit?Because you were never created to be average. You were created to influence environments, carry light, and walk in purpose

Your child's health starts in the gut. The immune system and brain are taking cues from the same place every day. On this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy sit down with integrative pediatrician Dr. Elisa Song, a leading voice in pediatric functional medicine, to map out what the gut microbiome actually is and why it matters even when your kid's poop looks “normal.” If your family is dealing with eczema, allergies, frequent illness, anxiety, sleep issues, attention struggles, or big mood swings, this conversation connects the dots with clear science and practical next steps.We dig into the research linking early microbiome disruption especially from antibiotics and antacid medications to higher risks of allergic disease and later mental health concerns. Dr. Song explains how microbes help train immune tolerance, support the gut-brain axis, and even produce key compounds like short-chain fatty acids and neurotransmitters tied to calm, sleep, motivation, and focus. We also name the common disruptors parents run into: ultra-processed food additives like emulsifiers, artificial sweeteners, certain medications, environmental chemicals, and chronic stress.Then we get real about what to do. Dr. Song shares a framework for rebuilding: start with foundational nutrients, feed beneficial bacteria with fiber and plant diversity, use fermented foods, and consider probiotics strategically after antibiotics. We also talk about how to help teens change without power struggles by teaching label reading, explaining the “why,” and tying food choices to goals they care about like skin, sports, sleep, and stress.If this helped you, subscribe to Brainy Moms Podcast, share the episode with a parent friend, and leave a review so more families can find it.

In this unscripted, freewheeling conversation recorded at the secret compound, Ed shares the profound shift happening in his heart as he prepares to enter OCIA and come into full communion with the Catholic Church. He reflects on how years of Protestant experience left him with a flattened faith — where baptism, communion, and even basic Christian practices became optional or merely symbolic — and how rediscovering mystery has brought wonder, weight, and meaning back into his life. Greg and Ed explore the difference between modern “mystery” as unsolved puzzle and the New Testament mysterion — the transcendent, supernatural realities that point to realities beyond what we can measure or fully explain. They discuss the enchanted universe of medieval Catholicism, the flattening effect of the Enlightenment, and how stripping away divine mystery leaves a void that gets filled with everything from simulation theory to razor blades under pyramids. Along the way they touch on cathedrals, real presence in the Eucharist, marriage as sacrament, C.S. Lewis, Owen Barfield, Chesterton, and why so many today are hungry for a Christianity that is big, bold, substantial, and deeply rooted in the supernatural. If you've ever felt that modern life (and modern Christianity) has lost its magic, this episode will speak to that ache and point toward the ancient answer.

Pope Leo XIV released his first encyclical today — Magnifica Humanitas — addressing the dignity of the human person in the age of artificial intelligence, transhumanism, and rapid technological change. In this short update episode, Greg reflects on the long anticipation for this document (echoing Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum), shares what we've already covered on the podcast and in our adult education academy, and explains why he's choosing to read, mark up, and prayerfully reflect on the full 42,000-word text before offering in-depth thoughts in a couple of weeks. He also gives important show updates: switching to interactive Zoom webinars for supporters, plans to resume regular Patreon content, and a sneak peek at the upcoming new podcast The History of Christendom.

Pastor KJay preached a powerful message titled “Attitude of Gratitude”

Send us Fan MailStuck Isn't Your Identity… But Indecision Might Be Keeping You ThereHave you ever felt stuck?Stuck in your health, your relationships, your business, your purpose… or even stuck in a version of yourself that you've already outgrown?In this episode, Amy gets real about the emotional and mental exhaustion that comes from indecision. The conversations you keep avoiding. The appointments you keep putting off. The boundaries you know you need to set. The dream you keep delaying because you're waiting for perfect clarity.Amy shares why unresolved things are expensive — not just financially, but emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically. She explains how living in a constant state of “I don't know” quietly drains your energy, steals your peace, and keeps you trapped in cycles of overthinking and avoidance.This episode is a wake-up call to stop doom scrolling, stop numbing, stop overthinking, and start moving. Because momentum is medicine. Movement is medicine. And clarity often comes after the step — not before it.Amy also opens up about a personal decision she finally made after carrying the weight of it for years, reminding listeners that breakthrough doesn't always feel peaceful in the beginning. Sometimes growth feels uncomfortable. Sometimes freedom starts with ripping the Band-Aid off.If you've been sitting in the valley of indecision, this episode will challenge you to take your power back, trust God with the outcome, and move forward with courage — even if it's only one small step at a time.Because sometimes breakthrough looks less like a miracle…and more like a decision.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

Greg dives into a surprising pattern that keeps surfacing in Catholic-Protestant conversations: why so many objections to Catholicism quickly circle back to sex, sexuality, and gender. From the intense pushback on Mary's perpetual virginity and clerical celibacy, to contraception, the male-only priesthood, divorce, and the endless cultural tropes about “sexy nuns,” repressed priests, and naughty Catholic schoolgirls, these issues generate unusually visceral reactions. Greg asks the provocative question: Does this fixation tell us more about certain Protestant assumptions about the human body than it does about Catholic teaching? He traces how a quiet but seismic shift during the Reformation—and the cultural currents that followed—created two genuinely different visions of what it means to be embodied, sexual, male-and-female creatures made for communion. The result is a fascinating, charitable look at why these flashpoints keep dominating the conversation and what the Catholic vision of the body actually offers in a world that's more confused than ever about sex, marriage, and human flourishing.

Firm parenting isn't the same as 'mean' parenting. And your child isn't “pushing your buttons” because they're broken. Sometimes the real problem is that we've never been taught a clear, repeatable way to stay calm, set firm boundaries, and teach kids how to regulate themselves. Parenting behaviorist and family advocate Nicholeen Peck joins Dr. Amy and Sandy to redefine strict parenting as self-government: living by principles, staying emotionally steady, and using skills that make conflict predictable instead of explosive.On this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast. we dig into how Nicholeen's years of working with traumatized and neurodiverse teens shaped a home culture that felt safe enough for even the most reactive kids to calm down. She explains why firmness does not require meanness, how scripts reduce power struggles, and what it looks like to teach children to follow instructions or disagree appropriately without manipulation. We also talk about brain-based parenting, getting everyone back to the “front brain” before solving problems, and why this approach is not about stuffing emotions but about timing and clarity.Then we move into the practical foundations: building a family vision, defining family roles, and rebuilding belonging and bonding when outside influences pull kids away from home. If you're homeschooling, parenting a strong-willed child, or navigating teen resistance, you'll hear concrete ways to shift your mindset, hold boundaries with love, and invite responsibility without constant lectures.Subscribe for more smart, compassionate parenting conversations, share this with a friend who needs calmer days, and leave a review so more families can find us.

Episode 219: Automate Your Lead Generation with our FREE online course: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/auto-leads-course-freeAI is fundamentally changing how people find information online — and if you're relying on Google search traffic or organic content to drive leads, you've likely already felt the impact.For coaches, course creators, and agency owners, this shift isn't just an algorithm update; it's a complete disruption to the visibility strategies that have worked for years.In this episode, Tim Woda teaches us how to adapt and stay profitable, including why building a recognizable brand makes you more likely to appear in AI-generated responses, how platforms like YouTube and Reddit represent overlooked opportunities for discovery, and why moving toward high-ticket offers can dramatically reduce your dependence on traffic volume — and the stress that comes with it.About Tim Woda: Tim is a digital strategist, entrepreneur, and growth architect who helps businesses win when the rules change.

Let's be real. The culture is obsessed with making us want to blend in. It's like there's this unspoken rule that says you have to follow the trends to be okay. But here's the truth: God didn't design you to blend in. He called you to stand out. Welcome back to Part 2 of our "Us vs. The Culture" series on the UncommonTEEN Podcast! In this episode, Coach Jamie is joined by co-hosts Kayleigh, Rosie, and Sadie to talk about the massive pressure teens face to compromise what they believe just to keep the peace. We dive into the life of Daniel—a teenager who lived in a culture that tried to completely strip away his identity. He made one decision that changed everything, and it created a ripple effect that gave his friends the courage to stand strong too. If you are tired of swimming upstream alone, feeling exhausted by the constant scroll of social media, or wondering how God really sees you, this episode is exactly what you need to hear today. ✨ THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: Coach Jamie challenges you to write down 3 "I AM" statements based on who God says you are (Beautiful, Valuable, Treasured!). Stick them on your mirror or your wall to remind yourself of your true identity!

In the final part of this three-part series, Greg takes the philosophical foundation from Episode 1 and the moral schematics from Episode 2 and applies them directly to four very ordinary, everyday situations: money lending and usury, lying versus legitimate deception, disciplining children (including spanking), and gambling. Using the categories of intrinsically evil acts, prudential judgment, and authentic development of doctrine, he walks through concrete examples—medieval usury versus modern payday loans, the Nazis-at-the-door dilemma and broad mental reservation, parental decisions about spanking, and state-sponsored gambling—so you can see exactly how the object of the act, the privation of the good, and the virtue of prudence work in real life. You'll come away with clear, practical tools for reasoning through complex moral questions with the mind of the Church instead of slogans or partisan talking points.

Send us Fan MailI want to ask you a powerful question today: Whose report will you believe?Because the truth is the report you believe is shaping your life.Your thoughts.Your expectations.Your actions.Your future.And so many people are living under reports that were never meant to define them.Maybe it's what your family said.Maybe it's what your past looks like.Maybe it's the circumstances you're walking through right now.“Nothing ever works for me.”“This is just how life is.”“I'll never get ahead.”But what if those aren't truth?In this episode, I'm talking about the battle for your mind and why the greatest work you'll ever do is the transformation of your inner life.Because whatever controls your thinking…eventually controls your life.And if you constantly rehearse failure, fear, limitation, and defeat—you'll start building your life around those expectations.But if you begin to align yourself with truth, possibility, and faith…everything starts to shift.We talk about:Why your mindset is shaping your futureHow daily habits reveal what you actually believeThe difference between believing circumstances vs believing truthWhy Joshua and Caleb saw opportunity when everyone else saw defeatAnd how to keep walking when life feels hardBecause here's what I know: Every storm eventually runs out of rain.And if you don't quit…you will see breakthrough.I know some of you listening are walking through really difficult things right now.Loss. Delay. Fear. Setbacks.But I want you to remember this:God is still working.And what feels like a setback today may be the very thing building strength, impact, and purpose inside of you for tomorrow.So this week, I want you to pay attention to the report you're agreeing with.Is it fear?Limitation?Defeat?Or is it truth?Because the report you believe will determine the life you build

A lot of parenting advice sounds like a to-do list. Dr. Will Dobud joins us to make the case for something both simpler and harder: stop chasing the perfect technique and start rebuilding the conditions where kids can actually thrive. We talk about youth mental health trends, why anxiety can rise even when “support” increases, and how easily adults can confuse more intervention with better outcomes. We dig into research on school-based social emotional learning and universal stress management programs, including why broad rollouts can sometimes make students more anxious. The thread running through it all is co-regulation: kids learn emotional regulation through safe, trusting relationships with adults, not by being pushed into independent coping skills before they are developmentally ready. We also connect the dots to psychotherapy research and why the relationship matters more than the modality, whether you're a therapist, teacher, counselor, or parent. Then we go practical. We explore risky play, challenge, and why “be careful” can transfer adult anxiety onto kids at the exact moment they need focus and confidence. We also question perfection-driven schooling, the pressure to be exceptional, and the importance of community and a real village of adults. If you've felt overwhelmed by parenting tips, school pressure, screen time debates, or youth anxiety headlines, this conversation offers a calmer, more evidence-informed way forward. Subscribe for more Brainy Moms conversations, share this with a parent or educator who needs it, and leave a review.

 Pastor KJay preached a fire message titled “He Waited”

Pastor Kevin preaches this week on how we are to "Do What He Tells You" from John 2:1-12.

In the second part of this three-part series, Greg builds directly on the foundation laid in “The Anatomy of Evil” and moves into the practical schematics the Church has spent two thousand years refining. He walks through the key categories of Catholic moral reasoning: universal, unchanging principles rooted in human dignity and the natural law; intrinsically evil acts whose object is always disordered; positive obligations that call us to active love and justice; the virtue of prudence that guides real-world application; and the legitimate space for prudential judgment where faithful Catholics of good will can disagree in good faith. You'll also explore the idea of authentic development of doctrine—Newman-style organic growth that deepens without reversing—and what it means when the Magisterium declares something “inadmissible” in light of the Gospel.

Pastor Steve preaches this week on how the "Father Knows Best" from Matthew 7:7-12.

Send us Fan MailJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Last week, we talked about casting your cares.This week, we're taking it one step further—Because even when you've released the worry…there's still something that can pull you right back into it:Your feelings. And I want to say something that might challenge you a little…Your feelings don't get a vote.Now hear me—feelings are real.But they are not reliable leaders.Because if you live your life based on how you feel…you will constantly find yourself off track.“I don't feel like doing this.”“I don't feel capable.”“I don't feel like anything is working.”And before you know it, those feelings start shaping your actions…and your actions start shaping your results.In this episode, I'm breaking down how to:Stop letting your feelings dictate your directionTrain your mouth to speak truth instead of emotionStay consistent even when nothing looks like it's changingAnd walk through the “hallway” between where you are and where you're goingBecause this is where most people quit.They do the right things…They say the right things…But when their feelings don't immediately change—they assume nothing is working.And that's where they lose momentum.The truth is—Your feelings are often the last thing to align.So you can't wait for them. You have to lead them.You have to speak truth… even when you don't feel it. You have to show up… even when you don't see it. You have to stay consistent… even when it's uncomfortable.Because the life you want is on the other side of that consistency.So this week, I want to challenge you—For the next 24 hours…Pay attention to every time you say: “I feel…”And instead of stopping there—replace it with truth.Because your words are training your life. And if you want to walk in victory…you have to start speaking like it

In a world of loud moral arguments and social-media slogans, real precision often gets lost. In this three-part series, Greg unpacks one of the most attractive features of Catholic moral theology: its remarkable clarity around evil as a privation (not a substance), intrinsically evil acts, prudential judgment, and authentic development of doctrine. Episode 1, “The Anatomy of Evil,” explores how human actions are good in their being yet can be morally disordered in their object—drawing on Aquinas, C.S. Lewis's “bent” imagery, and concrete examples like homosexual activity and direct abortion. Episode 2 lays out the practical schematics the Church has refined for two thousand years: universal principles, absolute norms, positive obligations, prudence, and Newman-style development (including the language of “inadmissible”). Episode 3 applies those tools to four relatable everyday cases—money lending and usury, lying versus legitimate deception, disciplining children (spanking), and gambling—showing exactly how Catholics can reason faithfully through complex situations with both intellectual honesty and pastoral charity.

Send us Fan MailWhat if the very thing you're stressing about…is the exact thing blocking the breakthrough you've been praying for? I want you to really think about that.Join The 6 AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Because in this episode, I'm talking about something that most of us struggle with—worry, control, and trying to make things happen in our own strength.And I had this moment recently where I caught myself doing exactly that—trying to figure it out, trying to push things forward, trying to make something happen.And I heard this simple truth: When you work, God rests.But when you rest… God goes to work.And everything shifted. Because so many times in life, we're operating from the wrong position.We're striving… instead of trusting.We're controlling… instead of releasing.We're praying for something… instead of living from it.In this episode, I break down:Why worry isn't just an emotion—it's a belief systemHow worry “kinks the flow” of what God is trying to do in your lifeThe difference between a performance mindset and a supply mindsetAnd how to actually practice casting your cares (and not picking them back up)Because here's the truth…You can be doing all the right things—and still be blocking what God is trying to release.Not because He's withholding…But because you're gripping too tightly. There is a rhythm to grace. There is a flow to trust. And when you learn how to let go…you start to see things open up in ways you couldn't have forced.So today, I want to challenge you: What are you trying to control right now?What are you carrying that was never yours to carry? Because the moment you release it…you make room for God to move.And what He does with itwill always be greater than what you could've done on your own
