Podcasts about Crazy Love

To attract someone honest, you don't need to be honest. You need to be a space that can hold honesty. That distinction — the match, not the mirror — is one of a dozen reframes in this conversation that will quietly rearrange how you think about love. Adam Roa is a poet, artist, and coach whose spoken word performance "You Are Who You've Been Looking For" became the most viral poetry performance in history — over 250 million views. But the man behind the poem spent years unable to express emotion at all, raised in a home where feelings weren't safe. His new book, Crazy Love, opens his actual journals from nearly two decades of searching for love, finding it, losing it, and putting himself back together. In this episode, Adam and Michael go deep into: — The mechanics of masculine and feminine energy — and the two karmic wounds ("I am not enough" / "I am too much") that every relationship will eventually force you to face — Why the Gottman Institute found that couples together fifty years are still fighting about the same things they fought about on their first dates — and why that's actually the key to lasting love — The "goddess time" problem: what to do when your partner's relationship to time (or anything else) triggers you — and how to build agreements instead of resentment — Why your triggers in dating are rarely about the thing itself — the body count, the lateness — and how to gather the data that actually matters — Creativity as life force: why your unique frequency is the most healing thing you can offer the world, and how to find the clues your soul has left you — The practice behind the virality: how showing up to create, over and over, without needing to know where it leads, is what makes you ready when the moment arrives Adam also performs two poems in full — including the one that reached a quarter of a billion people. "Vulnerability is the gateway to connection. If we are seeking connection — to each other, to ourselves, and to life itself — we have to be willing to be vulnerable through the authentic expression of our creative energy." — Adam Roa Adam's book Crazy Love is available now.

This week the theme is simple: STAY SCHEMING.  We open with the "Spin That" controversy taking over everybody's timeline — India.Arie's response video, the boycott debate, and why the real issue isn't one song, it's the lack of balance in today's music compared to the 90s. That spirals into booster culture, the underground food stamp economy, and why every good scheme requires patience (looking at you, Brinks truck guy). Then we get into one of the great 90s urban legends: did Toni Braxton really break up the young Dallas Mavericks — Jason Kidd, Jimmy Jackson, and Jamal Mashburn? And was her "Good girls don't kiss and tell" response the greatest album promo scheme ever pulled? (The Secrets album turns 30 this month, so Jimmy Jackson is conveniently telling the story again...) Plus: DJ Jazzy Jeff reveals he mixed Jill Scott's classic albums under the alias "George Glass" — and even won awards under the fake name. We debate who invented the producer tag, break down 9th Wonder's Billboard chart experiment (spoiler: Reasonable Doubt didn't sell in '96 and it's still a classic), and confess which albums our younger selves overrated. Stacy brings a full segment of 90s songs you didn't know were covers — Brian McKnight's "Crazy Love," Maxwell's "Woman's Work," Monica's "Angel of Mine," Xscape's "Who Can I Run To," Whitney's "I Will Always Love You," Destiny's Child's "Emotion," and more that will make you question your whole childhood. We also cover Uncle Luke's run for Congress, Mara Brock Akil asking for $50 MILLION to make the Girlfriends movie, a full turn-by-turn map breakdown of Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Posse on Broadway" (the whole song takes place on like six blocks!), the eternal debate of O-Dog vs. Bishop — psychopath or sociopath? — a 90s streetwear draft (justice for Cross Colours!), and Brian McKnight's truly diabolical Father's Day interview. We close it out with a full track-by-track revisit of Tevin Campbell's "I'm Ready" (1993) — the Babyface heat, the Prince problem, why "Shhh" should have never happened, and our final ratings.

Hear how a community-centered, dignity-first approach transforms lives, builds local leadership, and offers practical ways listeners can help through shopping fair-trade, sponsoring a student, volunteering, or donating.

You felt the spark. The chemistry was undeniable. You thought that feeling meant it was real.What if it didn't?Adam Roa is a poet, coach, and one of the most honest voices on love alive right now. His poem "You Are Who You've Been Looking For" got 40 million views in 48 hours, and instead of feeling celebrated, he fell into one of the darkest periods of his life. He's spent decades studying love from every angle: scientific, spiritual, poetic, personal. And what he's found might change the way you read your own relationships.This conversation goes deep. We talk about why fireworks are often trauma bonds in disguise, what mature love actually feels like in your body, and why the men in your life aren't moving on pain-free, they're just moving on differently. Adam also opens up about his new book Crazy Love, the journal entries he never planned to share, and the night he slept with someone he didn't want to, and wept about it the next morning.This is one of those episodes you'll come back to.What we get into:Why the chemistry you're chasing might be a trauma bond, not loveFireworks vs. mature love, and how to reset your body's barometerWhat surrendering to love actually looks like (hint: it keeps hurting)How to support your man when he goes quiet, without making it about youWhy your ex moving on fast doesn't mean he didn't careTimestamps:00:00: Fireworks aren't the indicator of a healthy relationship01:15: What surrendering to love really means, and why it never stops04:23: Why most fireworks are actually trauma bonds in disguise09:01: The ten year relationship that taught him nothing, until it ended10:18: Suicidal ideation, depression, and what finally turned the page14:26: Self-love isn't a yes or no, it's a relationship with yourself23:10: Why nothing grows without resistance (including you)55:32: How to support a man who goes quiet without making it about youFind Adam: @adam.roa on Instagram and YouTubeGet his book Crazy Love and access exclusive events at www.adamroa.comConnect with me on socials by saying hi over on IG: @rebecca.antonucci (http://www.instagram.com/rebecca.antonucci)

Based on the book "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan - Chapter 10.When we learn something we should apply. It there is a lot to learn about the love of God and what our love for Him should look like. So as we learn those principles the takeaway should be obedience.

What is Jesus doing? Mark 3:20–35 prepares us for the hearing of God's Word, publicly read, in the holy assembly on the coming Lord's Day. In these sixteen verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that Jesus is destroying the works of the devil, forgiving sin, and gathering a family. The devotional centers on Jesus's confrontation with accusations of demonic possession, exposing the irrationality of attributing His divine power to Satan. It emphasizes that while all sins, including blasphemy, can be forgiven, rejecting the Holy Spirit's testimony to Christ's divine mission results in eternal condemnation, underscoring the necessity of faith in Christ as God's self-sacrificial love made manifest. Jesus is gathering to Himself a spiritual family redeemed from sin and Satan's dominion. The message calls believers to respond in faith, embracing Christ's inexplicable love, and living in alignment with His Father's will as evidence of belonging to His eternal family. Ultimately, the devotional presents the gospel as both a divine rescue from spiritual bondage and a transformative invitation into God's family, rooted in grace and sustained by faith.

This study is based on Francis Chan's Book "Crazy Love" Chapter 9Christ sacrificed everything for you. What are you sacrificing for Him? Is more time spent on yourself or is spent on Him and others. Here are six stories of people who gave their all for God. Could you live like they did? At the end of your life, what will the story be that is written about you?

This episode opens with Candace welcoming pastor Francis Chan for the first of a six-week series built around his book Beloved and the theme of God's love. The two share history going back to Candace's teenage years at Cornerstone Church, and that context shapes the conversation from the start. Francis has written several books, including Crazy Love, and Beloved is the anchor for everything this season covers. A lot of this episode focuses on Francis's early life. His mother died when he was born, his father gave him up, and he was raised by his grandmother in Hong Kong before being returned to his dad at age five. Francis remembers arriving in a home where he felt like an interruption, not speaking English, with older siblings who didn't know what to do with him. His stepmother died in a car accident when he was seven, and his father died when he was twelve. Francis connects that history directly to the reason he wrote Beloved: accepting a holy, sovereign, judging God came naturally to him, but believing that God personally loved him was something else entirely. Candace comes to the conversation from a different starting point. Growing up with a loving earthly father, she says she absorbed God's love almost by default and never stopped to think too deeply about whether it was real or not. She reflects that believing something and actually sitting inside it aren't the same thing. Francis responds that this is its own kind of distance, and that he sometimes tells his own children he worries they'll miss out on the particular dependence on God that came from having no one else to rely on. The episode closes with a listener theology question from Vicky about Moses interceding when God threatens to destroy the Israelites. Vicky asks how a sovereign God who knows everything can be genuinely angry about things He already knew would happen, and whether Moses actually changed the outcome. Francis points to Isaiah 55, acknowledges the tension honestly, and draws out what the passage teaches about prayer, intercession, and how scripture uses narrative to communicate what neat answers alone can't.

Bible study centered around Francis Chan's book "Crazy Love" - Chapter 8What are you focused on in your life? What gets the most time and attention? Where does God fall into the structure of your day? My problem.....I get captivated w/ my ministry instead of being captivated w/ God. It is something I am working on turning around. What do you need to turn around to get full capitvated on HIM?

“Staff Talks with Francis” is a new series where we share real moments from our Crazy Love staff meetings - honest conversations about following Jesus, caring for the church, and discerning God's voice in the middle of everyday ministry. Are you constantly checking your phone… without even thinking about it? Scrolling. Notifications. Endless updates. In a world full of distractions, many of us are quietly losing our focus - and even our ability to be fully present. Along with it comes a subtle pressure to keep up with everything: news, controversies, messages, and the constant stream of information that leaves us feeling like we can't afford to miss anything. But what if the real danger isn't missing what's happening in the world… but missing what God wants to say to us? In this episode, Francis Chan shares what the Lord impressed on him during a long trip home from Brazil, wrestling with distraction, the fear of missing out, and the deeper invitation into silence and presence. This conversation is both practical and convicting - challenging us to set boundaries with our screen time, embrace uninterrupted time with Jesus, and live with greater intentionality. As we learn to be still, look people in the eyes, and pursue God's presence, we begin to experience deeper connection, clearer purpose, and a love that truly reflects His heart.

Based on the book Crazy Love - Ch. 4Are you doing things half way for Jesus? Did HE not give us HIS all? Consider surrendering your entire life to God and see God rain down on you His blessings. It is the best way to unchain yourself and be free.

Based on the Book Crazy Love by Francis Chan - Chapter 5As a Christian or Christ follower, are you on fire for God, or are you fading away? If you are fading away, why is that happening? Reignite the fire God has put in your soul to follow Him with everything you have! There is nothing greater to strive for! Keep going!

Based on the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan - Chapter 6Where is your focus? On all the things and people around you? If you want to handle all of that, we must first look vertically to God. And not just look at Him, we must RUN to HIM. Don't let anything else slow us down, and don't get distracted. Run to Jesus and don't stop!

Based on the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan - Chapter 7Are you playing it safe? Meaning, are you being lazy? Are you holding back from God? Are you scared or fearful of surrendering all the way to Him? I think you will find it is more fearful to play it safe than to pay the cost and give your all to HIM. It's a little dangerous but super rewarding in many ways! 

We pray a lot when we are in trouble. We pray a lot to ask for things. We pray a lot when it is the last thing we can do. Maybe we stop praying for a bit and just wonder at the magnitude of God.

How long do you have? Will you make it through this podcast? Will you make it to tomorrow? What about next week? Maybe we should look at life a little differently. Redeeming the time.

Who is the greatest lover? You? Your bride? Someone else? Maybe it is God. And if so, we should pay great attention.

In this deeply reflective and expansive conversation, Darin sits down with poet, speaker, and consciousness explorer Adam Roa for a raw dialogue on creativity, stillness, identity, and the courage it takes to live from integrity instead of performance. From viral art and the pressure of platforms to darkness retreats, emotional sovereignty, and redefining success, this episode explores what it really means to listen inwardly in a world addicted to noise. This is not a conversation about answers. It's a conversation about asking better questions and trusting the quiet moments where truth lives.     What You'll Learn in This Episode How art and creativity act as accelerators for human consciousness Why stepping back from visibility can be an act of integrity, not avoidance The emotional cost of constant output and public expectation What happens when identity dissolves and certainty disappears Why stillness, darkness, and solitude reveal what discipline cannot How to rebuild meaning when old belief systems fall apart The difference between inspired expression and

But if we wake up resolved to choose a relationship with God, we can be fairly certain that we'll be asked to do things that might make the neighbors talk, that might push us toward people we'd otherwise avoid, that we'll be asked to stand up for truths that aren't popular or even sensible. I hate to say it, but sometimes it might even look like our lives are on fire.

MJ Cole reflects on his classical upbringing, his early love for hardcore and jungle, and how discovering slower tempos helped shape his signature sound. He shares how he keeps creativity fresh by avoiding autopilot in the studio, constantly experimenting with new tempos, tools, and sound-design techniques. They also revisit the journey behind “Sincere,” his breakthrough single and album, and discuss the realities of performing live, where passion often outweighs profit. Despite the industry's pressures, MJ Cole emphasizes that he has never wanted to quit because his drive comes from true artistic expression.Who is MJ Cole: The 90s reshaped UK culture with garage, jungle and more, and MJ Cole stood at the center with a 2-step sound that influenced grime, dubstep and artists like The xx. His breakout hit “Sincere” became one of the first garage tracks to reach the UK top 40, leading to a career producing for Dizzee Rascal, Katy B, Becky Hill, Stormzy, and co-writing Mary J Blige's “Nobody But You.” Raised in a musical West London home and trained at the Royal College of Music, Cole blended classical skill with electronic experimentation, eventually landing at Sound of the Underground and scoring chart success with “Crazy Love.” Today he stays focused on new ideas, pushing his sound through collaborations like AJ Tracey's “The Rumble,” releases on labels like Method White, and his own imprint 892, all while championing underground artists and music that feels real and connected.⏲ Follow Will Clarke ⏱https://djwillclarke.com/https://open.spotify.com/artist/1OmOdgwIzub8DYPxQYbbbi?si=hEx8GCJAR3mhhhWd_iSuewhttps://www.instagram.com/djwillclarkehttps://www.facebook.com/willclarkedjhttps://twitter.com/djwillclarkehttps://www.tiktok.com/@djwillclarke Hosted on Acast.

Pastor Dan reflects on prayer and the biblical stories of Jacob and Joseph (Genesis 32–50 and Hebrews 11) to show how God turns our weaknesses and wounds into blessings and new identity. Through metaphor, scripture, and personal testimony, the episode encourages leaning into dependence on God, practicing regular prayer, forgiving others, and trusting that God can graft a new, redemptive story from our brokenness.

Amadou and Mariam, the iconic musical duo from Mali, performed together for more than four decades until the passing of Amadou in April. Their ninth and final album together, "L'Amour à la Folie" or "Crazy Love" in English, has just dropped. It's a posthumous love letter from Mariam to her late husband, with help from their son Sam Bagayoko. FRANCE 24's Marion Chaval and Yong Chim spoke to Mariam about performing without Amadou.

Barry and Abigail discuss Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars by Edie Brickell & New Bohemians and sample Cherry Limeade, Peach Kill All The Golfers, and Yacht Rock from B. Nektar Meadery in Ferndale, Michigan.Cherries are, in fact, both deciduous fruits and stonefruits.Edie Brickell and Steve Martin released a bluegrass album together in 2013, Love Has Come For You.The “flanged” guitar in the breakdown of What I Am reminded Abigail of Peter Frampton speaking through his guitar in Do You Feel Like We Do - Live.Abigail learned all about Edie Sedgwick and Little Miss S. from this article!Air of December reminded Abigail loosely of a poetic form called a sestina.Abigail entered The Wheel into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to I Fought the Law by The Clash. Abigail also wanted to remind everyone that the concept of the multiverse was first proposed by Hugh Everett III, the father of E of Eels. Listen to our episode on Eels: Owlectro-Shock Brews (Eels and Dangerous Minds Brewing Co.) or read this great biography of Hugh Everett III.Abigail compared the mystery percussion in Love Like We Do to the percussion in This Means War by Marianas Trench.Content-wise, Abigail compared Circle to THE GREATEST by Billie Eilish. Barry thought it was more similar to Transit Town by Harborcoat.She prompted Abigail to educate Barry about the concept of the manic pixie dream girl. Lyrically, it reminded Barry of Mean girls by Charli xcx.The “fact” we learned in Carlo's Corner has been partially debunked. If you're interested, you can learn more about Niels Bohr, Carlsberg, or Jarlsberg.Barry took an opportunity to plug our friend Kevin Richberg's Slate Hill Edible Forest.Nothing reminded Abigail of the Greek myth of Odysseus and Polyphemus.
