Can laughter be a lifeline after enduring trauma? Join us as we sit down with Ashley Easter to uncover the power of humor in reclaiming joy and control. Ashley's story is both heartbreaking and uplifting, as she navigates the absurdity of her past life in a fundamentalist religious cult. Her small acts of rebellion and the discovery of humor as a coping mechanism provide a fresh perspective on finding light amid darkness. This conversation is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and how humor can build bridges, break down barriers, and foster deep connections.We also explore the rigid world of the independent fundamentalist Baptist (IFB) church and the homeschooling movement within these communities. Ashley's personal anecdotes shed light on the stringent rules and gender dynamics, the emotional and spiritual abuse, and the oppressive structures of the patriarchal and quiverful movements. Her journey from a staunch defender of traditional gender roles to an advocate for egalitarian theology and feminism is both inspiring and thought-provoking. The transformation she has undergone highlights the strength and determination it takes to break free from such restrictive beliefs.Finally, we delve into Ashley's path to self-discovery and independence, her experiences of overcoming trauma, and finding true love. We discuss the creation of her blog and the Courage Conference, which evolved into Courage 365, an online nonprofit supporting abuse survivors. Learn about the upcoming "30 Days of Courage" event and the importance of community, accessibility, and ongoing support for survivors. This episode is a powerful reminder of the impact of connection and support in the healing journey, and how resilience and humor can lead to profound transformation.https://www.courage365.org/abouthttps://www.ashleyeaster.com/storySupport the show

Ashley Easter, grew up and lived in a cult for 22 years. Thankfully, she was able to break free and decided to take control of her life. This journey was not an easy one. But with the help of her husband, Will Easter, Ashley began experiencing healing and empowerment.As a survivor, Ashley spoke out about her past and the challenges she had overcome. As a result, hundreds of abuse survivors reached out describing their experiences. Knowing she was not alone, Ashley realized she had to do something. The result was the launch of The Courage Conference in 2016, which has since evolved into Courage 365.Today, Courage 365 inspires and transforms countless abuse survivors' lives through a community of understanding, inspiration, and empowerment.✖️✖️✖️Support the Show: Patreon.com/PreacherBoys✖️✖️✖️If you or someone you know has experienced abuse, visit courage365.org/need-help✖️✖️✖️CONNECT WITH THE SHOW:preacherboyspodcast.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@PreacherBoyshttps://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/https://twitter.com/preacherboysdochttps://www.instagram.com/preacherboyspodhttps://www.tiktok.com/@preacherboyspodTo connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/✖️✖️✖️Sources & Clips Referenced:✖️✖️✖️The content presented in this video is for informational and educational purposes only.

Ironically, on the same day that New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg dropped charges against many of the antisemitic protestors who ransacked Columbia University, June 20, 2024, more than 600 Jewish and Christian participants gathered inside the Palladium Theater in New York City's Times Square to rally against the global scourge of antisemitism. The event, organized by Chosen People Ministries, was entitled “Oppose Antisemitism: Stop the Hate.” Guest host Adam McManus interviews Rich Flashman, a Jewish man who trusted Jesus as his Messiah and is now the leader of the Manhattan, New York branch of Chosen People Ministries which was founded 130 years ago to bring the Gospel to the Jews. In the first half of today's Generations Radio podcast, you'll hear his intriguing testimony of how God used Isaiah 53 and the bold evangelistic witness of a fellow college student at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst to bring Flashman to Christ. According to the Anti Defamation League, in the three months following the October 7th massacre in Israel when Hamas attacked, there were 3,291 U.S. antisemitic incidents. That's a whopping 361% increase between October 8, 2023 and January 7, 2024 compared to the same time period the year before. Dr. Michael Brown, a Jewish believer in Jesus and the host of The Line of Fire radio program, spoke to the 4 Satanic reasons why Jews have been hated. 1. God chose the Jewish people for a special mission which Satan wants to thwart. 2. God has guaranteed the Jewish people's ongoing existence, so Satan seeks their annihilation. 3. God promised the land of Israel to the Jewish people, so Satan wants to drive them out. 4. The Messiah is returning to a Jewish Jerusalem, so Satan wants it out of Jewish hands Brown insisted, “The purposes of God will stand and Satan will be defeated in Yeshua's name!” Plus, you'll hear the powerful song by Christian musician Aaron Shust entitled “Jerusalem” which is based on Psalm 122. Albert Einstein declared, “If I were to remain silent, I'd be guilty of complicity.”   Here are 5 ways you can bless the Jews. 1.  Pray for the Jewish people and encourage churches to pray at a main service.2.  Speak out against local acts of antisemitism.3.  Take action through public demonstrations, rallies, lectures, and social media in support of the Jewish community.4.  Demonstrate support for Jewish students on local college campuses.5. Support Jewish friends and visit a local synagogue to let them know, “I am praying for your safety.” (make it personal) If you are an undergraduate or graduate college student, or you have a child or grandchild who is, consider attending the free Courage Conference at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago between August 15-18.

Meet Rachel Fleischman – a licensed social worker, psychotherapist, registered expressive arts therapist, workshop facilitator, and speaker who, over the last two decades has supported thousands of humans to deepen their creativity, feel understood, and love themselves fiercely.

Rachel's love for supporting others began at a young age in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where she grew up experiencing complex trauma and learned about resilience and self-reliance as she raised herself. She found reprieve through dance classes and put herself through college and graduate school, where she also taught aerobics (which she thoroughly enjoyed). At the age of 24, Rachel took care of her dying father by teaching him exercises, which sparked the ideas surrounding the Dance Your Bliss classes and programs that she would later go on to develop. “As a young person, I often found myself being called upon to help others who were having difficulty coping with life situations. I had this ability to really “get” them and wanted desperately to learn more about how we process emotions, deal with adversity, and thrive,” says Fleischman. “During my 23 years practicing, I've trained with Esther Perel, the Gottmans and many other clinicians. I have studied Couples Counseling, sex therapy, CBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I refuse to stop learning – my clients mean the world to me!” Fleischman is currently developing new e-books and coursework surrounding perimenopause and menopause, and working with individual clients. She can regularly be found leading international workshops and programs at conferences, corporate retreats, and wellness centers such as the Esalen Institute, the Omega Institute's Women and Courage Conference, Canyon Ranch, the Naropa Institute's Hakomi Conference, the Hollyhock Retreat Center, UCSF Women's Health, Rancho La Puerta Spa, and the International Dance Therapy Conference.

Growing a community is hard work, and it doesn't happen overnight. So is it really worth it? And if so, what can you do to get started? I'm diving into these issues in today's conversation. Recently I spent time at the Clarity to Courage Conference. It was an incredible conference and I loved so much about it. One of the very special parts about the conference is that I was able to be there with 10 of the women in my upLIFT Mentormind. It was basically a ‘pinch me' kind of moment when I got to sit at dinner with these women--many of whom I had only interacted with online--and share dreams, stories, laughter, and tears together. Today I want to share with you some of the blessings I've received as a result of building a strong community and 5 things I did to cultivate that community.  For the full show notes, visit estherlittlefield.com/58.   Support for cultivating your community: If this all sounds great but still feels overwhelming, or you don't know where to start, I want to help. My friend Christa Hutchins and I are collaborating on a resource to help you cultivate your own strong community. Because obviously there's a lot more to it than what I've shared in today's episode.

Today's guest is Avery Forrest. Avery lives near the Gulf Coast of Alabama. She and her husband planted a church 11 years ago and they have to wild boys. Avery has been an entrepreneur for 10 years and ran a successful wedding photography business. At the end of 2019 Avery felt God leading her to something new so she trusted and followed. Avery has a business where she equips female Christian entrepreneurs for their mission in the marketplace. Clarity to Courage offers in-person retreats and conference to equip these women. The first conference is October 25-27th, 2021. She shares her wisdom with us about seeking clarity from God as you look for direction. - Pray intentionally with specific targets - knowing the questions you're asking God. One of those questions can be "what's the next step." There are more prayer prompts in Avery's Praying for Your Business linked below. - Listen to what God's telling you. - One of the things Avery did was to list out what you're good at and sought wisdom weeding out what things were right for the current season. - She said, "sometimes you have to step out and try it. Clarity comes as you step out and try something." - "God cannot steer you when you're sitting still. You have to move" - shared in a Lisa Brevere book. - "There's no compartmentalizing our lives - our spiritual life, business life, and our home life, it's all mixed together." They all have to be addressed together. - Pray for your business prompts can be found here. - Clarity doesn't mean you get the whole picture. - Clarity comes from time and communication with God. - There are people who need what you have. - Clarity comes from knowing God's promises for you. - Psalm 139 - You have to be okay to pivot and shift to the next right spot. - Do the things God asks out of obedience. - God wants us to trust him with the things he's telling us to do. - Where haven't you trusted him or done what he's asked you to do? It's possible this is keeping you from clarity or the next step forward. The Clarity to Courage Conference is October 25-27, 2021 in Alabama. You can find out more about this great conference on Avery's website. To get $50 off the price of the conference use the code EARLYBIRD. Avery's heart and vision for her ministry is on her website.

Our jaws were on the floor as we heard Ashley Easter tell her story of growing up in a fundamentalist Baptist family and homeschooled under the Christian Patriarchy, Quiverfull and Stay At Home Daughter movements. Guided by her strength and intuition, she was able to survive and escape the cults she had been indoctrinated in, and is now an empowerment coach and trained abuse victim advocate, and founder of The Courage Conference, an internationally attended abuse survivor conference. She is also the Vice President of "Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests," the largest and oldest clergy sexual abuse victim advocacy organization. Ashley's story of surviving a religious fundamentalist cult hit us both so deeply as we recognized cult-like behavior in so many non-religious organizations – corporations, social groups, families, and particularly the spiritual community, where many teachers are treated as untouchable and unquestionable gurus that can do no wrong. And Ashley is passionate about teaching others how to identify, connect with, and listen to their intuition so that they can develop greater discernment when it comes to the choices that they make in their lives from business to personal relationships. Ashley's FREE Intuitive AF workshop is August 30 - September 1, 2021. Sign up on her site – ashleyeaster.com. Her site also contains free helpful content like her ebooks "Cults in Plain Sight" and "5 Signs of a Toxic Relationship." Follow Ashley on Instagram @ashleyeaster.

Healing in community. Two strangers meet. Thomas met Dave after speaking at the Courage Conference in Florida in October 2019. They asked each other one question "What does it look like for us to be a part of each others life and supporting each other?" It starts here.

Enjoying God Help Us? Please rate and review on Apple Podcasts.  - Wherever it occurs and in whatever form it takes, abuse is about power and control and - whether in a church or the highest office of government - abuse results from a lack of accountability for our leaders. In this conversation with Rev. Ashley Easter, we discuss her theology of safety - that by understanding that all people are made in the image of God, we learn that we are all each other’s keepers. Acts of abuse as well as the mistreatment of survivors are not possible if we take seriously the value of each beloved human being, particularly the most vulnerable. Ashley is a Christian feminist, writer, speaker, television producer, news pundit, ordained reverend, and abuse-victim advocate who educates churches and secular communities on abuse. She is the founder of The Courage Conference for survivors of abuse and those who love them.

Facing your fears can be tough. I get it. For a long time, I would shove all of my fears and anxieties deep down inside me and throw away the key. But over time that pressure builds and builds until one day the pressure becomes to great and erupts. Who knows how big the destruction will be or what it will look like but we typically hurt everyone around us, including ourselves when we do this.  But what if we faced those fears one baby step at a time? Slowly let that pressure out instead of build up? What if we could prove to ourselves that facing our fears is a form of growth and that its not going to kill us to do the "uncomfortable" things?  In this episode, I give examples and tools how to break down your fears and face them head on. It's not always easy but if we aren't growing, we are dying. Which one are you?  Courage Conference is this Saturday!!

Dress for success!! When you look good, you feel good. I'll be the first to admit, I really like sitting in my workout/yoga clothes and working from behind a computer screen. But I also see the importance of showing up as your best self when the time calls for it! If you are struggling to find courage, momentum, confidence or motivation I suggest dressing it up a bit and take action! When I dress myself and put makeup on for the day, I feel incredible! Especially if I have people to meet (online or in person) and places to go! I don't mean wear heals and skirts all day. What I mean is dress for the occasion. If you are going to yoga, wear your BEST yoga year. If you are going to CrossFit, where those bomb ass leggings and new shoes. If you are going to an interview for a new job, dress it up!!! Bust out that jacket and nice dress that makes you feel like a million bucks. Dress for success and you will see success more and more! DRESS FOR SUCCESS LADIES!! You got this! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Courage Conference is approaching FAST!!! I am beyond excited to spend the afternoon with you!! Grab your GA tix ASAP.

Motivation isn't something that just appears out of thin air. It is something you have to create. Over and over again!

Head on over to our website to check it out.

(August 17, 2015) Dr J is once again Molly Smith's guest on "From the Median," offering a recap of Dr. Morse's participation in the Courage conference in Detroit. Dr. Morse and Molly discuss how we got to where we are culturally on sex, marriage, and family--and how we can move forward to a kinder, more Godly understanding that promotes healing from all the damage that's been done.

(August 12, 2015) Dr J is at the Courage Conference in Plymouth, Michigan (near Detroit), where spoke with Teresa Tomeo of Catholic Connection. Teresa is interviewing Dr J and Father Paul Check, head of Courage International, the Catholic Church's ministry to persons dealing with same sex attraction. They discuss how to work as a force for healing in the midst of all the sexual pressure our culture applies.
