What does it mean to be living courageously as a child of God? Kirk and Pastor Rex Holt explore the biblical foundations of bravery and how to overcome fear through faith. Drawing inspiration from heroes like Joshua, David, and even modern figures like Winston Churchill, they discuss God's call for believers to be bold and courageous. Pastor Holt shares wisdom on facing fears head-on and explains how our new nature in Christ empowers us to live bravely. Kirk and Rex also offer practical insights on finding strength in God's Word and presence, reminding listeners that true courage comes not from self-reliance, but from trusting in the almighty God who promises to be with us always.

In the book, Edie wants to solve a mystery — partially to prove that she's still a capable adult. People with dementia often struggle with losing independence, which is why activities such as driving can quickly turn into a contentious point between those with dementia and their loved ones. The ups and downs of dementia. Dementia is progressive, but it doesn't progress in a straight line. We see Edie have good days and bad days — as do most people with dementia. This can be confusing and, at times, frustrating for their loved ones.The challenges of caregiving. Caregivers are often loving, patient and compassionate. But they're not immune to frustration. Edie's beloved granddaughter reaches this point when it's all too much. It's important to have compassion for caregivers, Dr. Woolston says.

She is the director of the Shapiro Center at Wesleyan University. Her most recent book is the widely acclaimed New York Times bestselling memoir, "In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss."Joan McGregor, Ph.D., is a professor of philosophy at Arizona State University where she researches questions in moral and legal philosophy. She researches bioethics and sustainability — and has published more than 50 academic articles and book chapters, several of which focused on end-of-life care.We talked about:In this episode, Dr. Millstine and her guests discuss:The trickiness of dementia diagnosis. Dementia is often realized in retrospect. At first, it's easy to excuse symptomatic behavior as a personality quirk or fatigue. And the person themselves may not fully recognize that their abilities and capabilities are changing. Dementia also looks different person-to-person — affecting executive function, memory and personality to various degrees.The fight for medical autonomy. The rights for medical autonomy have increased. You can refuse care and you can create directions for medical professionals to follow if you become unable to make those decisions for yourself. But those advanced directives aren't always taken seriously, and even states that allow physician-assisted death come with many conditions.Facing the end. Our guests emphasize how important it is to have discussions with your loved ones about what you and they want for end-of-life care — regardless of your age or health status.Can't get enough?Purchase "In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss."From Bookshop.orgFrom AmazonFrom Barnes & NoblePurchase the Mayo Clinic Press book "Mayo Clinic on Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias."Purchase the Mayo Clinic Press book "Day to Day: Living with Dementia."Want to read more on the topic?

On today's special Sunday edition, we chat with Carolyn Weber! A Commonwealth Scholar, Dr. Carolyn Weber holds her B.A. Hon. from Huron College at Western University, Canada and her M.Phil. and D.Phil. from Oxford University, England. Dr. Weber is an award-winning author, popular professor and international speaker with talks ranging from campuses world-wide to Billy Graham's Cove and 100 Huntley Street. She has given numerous radio, television and podcast interviews on the intersection of faith and literature, as well as topics related to women and faith. She has served as faculty at Oxford University, Seattle University, University of San Francisco, Westmont College, Brescia University College and Heritage College and Seminary. She was the first female dean of St. Peter's College, Oxford. Dr. Weber recently relocated to the Nashville, TN area to work more closely with its special creative community dedicated to faith and the arts. She is delighted to serve as a professor at New College Franklin in Franklin, TN, where she is grateful to be part of the rich fellowship of learning at this unique and wonderful college. Carolyn Weber's first memoir, Surprised by Oxford (Thomas Nelson/Harper Collins) won among other distinctions the Grace Irwin Award, the largest award for Christian writing in Canada. Holy is the Day: Living in the Gift of the Present (InterVarsity Press) was short listed for the same prize, and won the faith living category. Surprised by Oxford is the incredible true story of Caro Drake, a young, headstrong American who lands a coveted scholarship to the University of Oxford for her postgraduate studies. Burdened with trust issues and intellectually hostile towards the abstract, Caro begins her time in Oxford with the singular goal of attaining her PhD. But through a tempestuous friendship with a charming young man and the wise counsel of the college's first female provost, Caro begins to open herself up to mystery, vulnerability, and the possibility of love. Surprised by Oxford invites audiences into a world of romance, reason, and high calling. The true-life story of college-aged American Caro Drake is a wonder-filled exploration of life's beauty and complexity, experienced in a manner not entirely dissimilar to C.S. Lewis's famous awakening nearly a century ago in the hallowed halls of Oxford, England.

A sweeping and surprising new understanding of extreme poverty in America from the authors of the acclaimed $2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America. Three of the nation's top scholars – known for tackling key mysteries about poverty in America – turn their attention from the country's poorest people to its poorest places. Based on a fresh, data-driven approach, they discover that America's most disadvantaged communities are not the big cities that get the most notice. Instead, nearly all are rural. Little if any attention has been paid to these places or to the people who make their lives there. This revelation set in motion a five-year journey across Appalachia, the Cotton and Tobacco Belts of the Deep South, and South Texas. Immersing themselves in these communities, pouring over centuries of local history, attending parades and festivals, the authors trace the legacies of the deepest poverty in America—including inequalities shaping people's health, livelihoods, and upward social mobility for families. Wrung dry by powerful forces and corrupt government officials, the “internal colonies” in these regions were exploited for their resources and then left to collapse. The unfolding revelation in The Injustice of Place: Uncovering the Legacy of Poverty in America (Mariner Books, 2023) is not about what sets these places apart, but about what they have in common—a history of raw, intensive resource extraction and human exploitation. This history and its reverberations demand a reckoning and a commitment to wage a new War on Poverty, with the unrelenting focus on our nation's places of deepest need.

Based on a fresh, data-driven approach, they discover that America's most disadvantaged communities are not the big cities that get the most notice. Instead, nearly all are rural. Little if any attention has been paid to these places or to the people who make their lives there. This revelation set in motion a five-year journey across Appalachia, the Cotton and Tobacco Belts of the Deep South, and South Texas. Immersing themselves in these communities, pouring over centuries of local history, attending parades and festivals, the authors trace the legacies of the deepest poverty in America—including inequalities shaping people's health, livelihoods, and upward social mobility for families. Wrung dry by powerful forces and corrupt government officials, the “internal colonies” in these regions were exploited for their resources and then left to collapse. The unfolding revelation in The Injustice of Place: Uncovering the Legacy of Poverty in America (Mariner Books, 2023) is not about what sets these places apart, but about what they have in common—a history of raw, intensive resource extraction and human exploitation. This history and its reverberations demand a reckoning and a commitment to wage a new War on Poverty, with the unrelenting focus on our nation's places of deepest need.

Way Back Wednesday: The Past Got You Here, What Will Get You There Highlights from this episode of Crushing the Day:
While this conversation first aired in 2018, the issues it explores about food equity and access remain unsolved in America and in many ways were exacerbated by the pandemic. In this episode of Add Passion and Stir , poverty expert and author Kathy Edin ($2 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America) and Washington, DC-area social entrepreneur Tom McDougall of 4P Foods illustrate how our current systems – political, social, economic, geographic – keep poor people from succeeding. They argue for more equity in social programs and a more dignified way of serving the poor. Kathy shares stunning statistics and poignant stories from America's impoverished families with whom she has worked and reminds us that, "When it comes down to it, what people seem to want more than anything else is dignity. … but a lot of our social policies deny people that.” What remains true today is the call-to-action to address and fix America's broken food system that as Tom notes can't be fixed "...unless we talk about money and politics… subsidies… institutional racism…If we move the needle just a tad on food equity, it means we're moving a lot of other needles along the way.”Hear recommendations from two thought leaders in food equity on what we can do as individuals and as a nation to improve these dire circumstances for the poor in America.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we must reflect on our historic and documented freedoms, and all the threats against them. Leaders failing, fighters needed. Three great documents that burn within our hearts. Teaching respect now or enabling bait and switch. How, when and where it happened. 911 terrorism and planned policy. Are we celebrating stolen liberty? Looking for those who love their country. Demons have no principles. Slavery means own nothing and be happy. DHS and NSA mission creep was intended. Making people look stupid. Convincing other nations to accept our ways. Meta data and vanishing privacy. Which Dim plan was the worst? Critical infrastructure (CI) and tactical assets means controlling elections. Hello CISA. Multi state control and cleaned up evidence. Over expanding reach. Little law doses for show and HAVA nice day. Busted plans. Postal crimes then and now. Can we win on rigged machines? Much of what is being done today is just so the people can see. That means we have faith in humanity. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

How many people in America live on less than $2 a day? Something many of us don't think about but a reality for those living in poverty in the United States. In this episode, Bishop Wright has a conversation with Luke Schaefer Ph.D. A University of Michigan Professor of Social Justice and Social Policy and Associate Dean for Research and Policy Engagement. They discuss the gaps in society and what we can do about them. Professor Schaefer also shares his own experience of poverty and what he's learned from his research on extreme poverty. Shaefer's research on poverty and social welfare policy in the United States has been published in top peer-reviewed academic journals in the fields of public policy, social work, public health, health services research, and history, and his work has been supported by the National Science Foundation, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and U.S. Census Bureau among other sources. He has presented his research at the White House and before numerous federal agencies, has testified before the U.S. Senate Finance Committee and has advised a number of the nation's largest human service providers.His work has been cited in media outlets such as the New York Times, Washington Post, The Economist, The Atlantic, and Los Angeles Times, and he has been featured on such programs as Marketplace and CNBC's Nightly Business Report. His book with Kathryn Edin, “$2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America,” was named one of the 100 Notable Books of 2015 by the New York Times Book Review, and won the Hillman Prize for Book Journalism among other awards. He was recently named to an Andrew Carnegie Fellowship.
