In this segment on men's mental health, Russell Murchison, Charles Gilbert and David Thomas open up about what males are taught while growing up about emotions and manhood. And how those early lessons during childhood can shape a man's ability to express emotional needs as an adult. From being taught to 'tough it out,' to feeling misunderstood by the women in men's lives, my guests share what gets in the way. This is the third segment of the larger conversation held with my guests.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YDP0NyYFiM  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxex48fQilk #mensmentalhealth #mensmentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #god #godislove #spirituality #retirement

In this full-length conversation, I sit down with three men from different generations to talk about what too often goes unsaid — the emotional battles men carry behind the scenes. Russell Murchison, Charles Gilbert and David Thomas speak candidly about the pressure to stay strong, the pain of grief and identity loss, and why being vulnerable can feel so risky. As Black men, they also reflect on the added layers of cultural conditioning and societal expectations; and how those experiences can shape the way Black men navigate emotion, relationships, and healing. In my introduction, I talk about how — when we look beyond cultural differences and the histories we carry — many of us share the same deep desire: to be seen, understood, and free to be ourselves. Whether you've followed the series or are tuning in for the first time, this episode offers a raw and heartfelt look at what strength in men really means. #mensmentalhealth #godislove #mentalhealthmatters #spirituality #mensperspective #menspeak #mensmentalhealth

This Sunday, we had the privilege of hearing from Pastor David Thomas of Asbury University, who preached a powerful message from Psalm 126 on travailing prayer. Drawing on his firsthand experience during the Asbury Awakening in 2023, Pastor David reminded us that awakening and revival have changed the course of history before, and they can happen again, but it starts with a desperate and honest recognition that we are broken and in need of God alone.David ThomasJune 8, 2025The Book of JoelHope in the Darkwww.newnorth.church

Willie discusses the Ohio state budget with state rep David Thomas.

This FamilyLife Today episode, hosted by Dave and Ann Wilson, features counselor David Thomas, who discusses signs of an emotionally unhealthy home, drawing from his book "Raising Emotionally Strong Boys." The conversation explores three key practices—recognize, regulate, and repair—that are often absent in unhealthy homes. David explains how ignoring emotional signals, failing to manage stress, and refusing to apologize contribute to dysfunction. The hosts share personal stories, including Dave's realization of his emotional unhealthiness despite initial denial and Ann's struggle with comparing her children. The episode emphasizes the importance of naming pain, seeking help, and modeling healthy emotional behaviors for kids. Dave's childhood experience of suppressed grief and Ann's encouragement to pray highlight God's redemptive power in transforming pain.

On this episode of FamilyLife Today, hosted by Dave and Ann Wilson, we feature counselor David Thomas, author of "Raising Emotionally Strong Boys." The discussion focuses on understanding and managing the physicality and emotional intensity of boys, particularly through the lens of Ann's story about neighborhood boys breaking wood on their foreheads. David shares insights from his 25 years at Daystar Counseling, emphasizing the need to create outlets for boys' energy, such as a designated “space” for physical release. He introduces the ABCs of emotional development—coping, breathing, and naming feelings—explaining that boys often need to release energy before identifying emotions. The episode addresses common parenting mistakes, like excessive talk and emotion during discipline, and encourages narrating personal experiences to model emotional health. David's podcast with Sissy Goff, "Raising Boys and Girls," is highlighted as a resource for parents. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/84/29

In this power-packed episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich welcomes back two of the most trusted voices in parenting—David Thomas and Sissy Goff from the Daystar Counseling Clinic and The Raising Boys & Girls Podcast. For the first time together on the show, David and Sissy dive deep into the social, emotional, and spiritual milestones our kids must hit to thrive—skills that don't show up on a report card but make all the difference in life. From why listening is the secret to becoming an interesting person, to how healthy risk fuels resilience, they bring real insight and practical tools for every parent. With warmth, wit, and decades of clinical experience, David and Sissy explore everything from perfectionism in preschoolers to the epidemic of anxious adolescents—and how playful training can shift the entire trajectory. They introduce their new Daystar Dogs book series, designed to equip even the youngest children with courage, resilience, and emotional vocabulary. This episode is a hopeful call to action: parenting is the training ground, and we have what it takes to raise kids who do, too. ** Learn more about David and Sissy and all they have to offer here Get your copy of Lucy Learns to Be Brave here Get your copy of Owen Learns He Has What it Takes here Get your copy of Are My Kids On Track? here A huge thank you to our sponsors!

Today our favorite counselors, David Thomas and Sissy Goff, are back to talk about their new project- children's books! So much has happened over the last few years and they are beginning to see the onset of anxiety drop to age 6 from 8 years old previously.

As usual, they pack so much advice into every moment, here are some things we cover: Escape and Avoidance vs. Support and Challenge in parenting  Connect over correction- we lose connections when we try to control the environment Kids are becoming less resilient-  they learn they are capable by experience How to help an introverted child with friendships How to be a good loser- turn it into something constructive How to understand your strong-willed child Why teen boys are not taking risks  Connect with David Thomas and Sissy Goff:  Website:  Raising Boys and Girls Facebook: Raising Boys and Girls Instagram:  Raising Boys and Girls (@raisingboysandgirls) Links Mentioned:   Owen Learns He Has What It Takes: By David Thomas Lucy Learns to Be Brave: By Sissy Goff Braver, Stronger, Smarter: By Sissy Goff Strong and Smart: By David Thomas Quiet Power: By Susan Cain Related Episodes: Helping Our Kids Foster Friendships :: David Thomas and Sissy Goff [Ep 338] Getting Brave About Anxiety :: Sissy Goff [Ep 311] The Worry-Free Parent :: Sissy Goff [Ep 421] Raising Worry-Free Girls :: Sissy Goff [Bonus] Helping Socially Anxious Boys :: David Thomas [Ep 451] Raising Emotionally Strong Boys :: David Thomas [Ep 368] A Lil Help with Boys and Screens :: David Thomas [Bonus] Understanding Boys Better :: David Thomas [Ep 315] Featured Sponsors:  Thrive Market: Skip the junk without overspending.
