Let’s be honest—most of us have questions we’re holding close to the chest. Why am I struggling? Why didn’t God intervene? Why now? The beauty of faith isn’t in pretending we don’t have questions—it’s in knowing exactly where to take them.
In this vulnerable follow-up to episode 90 ("Grace for Two"), we (Kiara and Jordan) are opening up about one of the most challenging parts of our marriage: navigating pain with sex due to pelvic floor tension (Vaginismus), wrestling with sexual shame, and learning how to build real intimacy when it doesn't come naturally.This conversation is raw and emotional. We're not experts—we're just two people trying to love each other well through pain, confusion, and grace. We talk about how our bodies and our hearts have been shaped by unmet expectations, and the slow, sacred work of healing together.If you've ever felt broken, ashamed, or alone in your intimacy struggles, this one is for you. You're not alone. And you are so deeply loved—even in the hard places.
On this week's Ministry Minute, we talk about how living as a believer in Jesus Christ requires sacrifice. Just as we make sacrifices in other areas of life, we must also sacrifice our own desires and lives to fully commit to God. This means repenting of sin, changing our mindsets, and presenting ourselves as living, holy sacrifices that are acceptable to God. It's not easy, but there is freedom and victory in Jesus for those who are willing to make the sacrifice. #Sacrifice #Repentance #MinistryMinuteIt Takes Sacrifice | Ministry Minute | EP263Romans 10:9:That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.We all have sinned, we all have made mistakes, but in spite of our imperfections, a perfect God sent His Perfect Son to die for those very imperfect sins, so we can have eternal life. THAT'S REAL LOVE. THAT'S JESUS' LOVE. In order to receive this forgiveness you must confess and repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ into your heart which you can do by saying this prayer wholeheartedly:Dear God,I confess and admit that I am a sinner, and I ask that You please forgive me and save me. I renounce and repent of all my sins, iniquities, and wrongdoings. I confess that Jesus, You are LORD, and I believe with all my heart that You died and rose again. I put my complete faith in Your finished works on the cross and I believe because of Your Blood that was shed, my sins can be forgiven. I ask that You be the Head of my life and the LORD of my life from this day forward, and I ask that You please help me to live for You all the days of my life.In Jesus Name I Pray,Amen.I'm Saved, What's Next:- Be Baptized In Jesus Name- Be Filled With The Holy Ghost- Live A Holy LifeJesus Is Soon To Return— BE READY!!#Christianity #Christian #Jesus #Bible #God #Faith #JesusChrist #Church #love #Bibleverse #Gospel #prayer #HolySpirit #Godisgood #pray #biblestudy #Scripture #hope #truth #religion #JesusLovesYou #worship #grace #JesusSaves #amen #blessed #Christianlivinghttps://www.joshuahopkinsstudios.com/ministryminute

This week on Ministry Minute, we discuss how God wants a relationship with us, despite our sins and mistakes. Jesus came to bridge the gap between us and God, and we can now have eternal life by repenting of our sins and accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. #Salvation #Forgiveness #MinistryMinuteGod Wants A Relationship With You | Ministry Minute | EP262Romans 10:9:That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.We all have sinned, we all have made mistakes, but in spite of our imperfections, a perfect God sent His Perfect Son to die for those very imperfect sins, so we can have eternal life.

"Do you still want to be married...?" In this episode of Dear God, Unscripted, we (Kiara and Jordan) open up about our journey as a married couple so far. We talk about some of the joys we've experienced and the challenges we've faced since saying “I do.” We share what we love most about being married, the strengths that keep us grounded, and the areas where we're still growing.Communication, compromise, and setting boundaries (especially with family) have been huge themes in our relationship. We get real about how we're learning to navigate all of that together.We also talk candidly about intimacy—both emotional and physical— the struggles that come with it, and the patience and grace it takes to work through those moments.Join us as we keep it unscripted, unfiltered, and honest. Stay tuned until the end, where I (Kiara) surprise Jordan with something that was way outside of my comfort zone.
When I hear the word "Prayer": I immediately think of a catholic mass in a regal church, or a solemn beg for more time from a sick person. But our guest today says that it doesn't even need to be specific to any religion in order to heal what ails you. Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. My guest today is Beatty Carmichael. Coming from a medical family, Beatty wanted to find where science applied itself to what he saw as a higher power of the universe. Much like gravity, he found that prayer works on a set of principles with very specific vernacular that needed to be followed. Now he's here to show us how this scientific prayer has helped 90% of his consults to recover when everything else failed. In case you missed it: The Just Dumb Enough Japan Tour starts in just about two weeks, and I cannot wait to see everyone on the road! ( http://ThePrayerOfFreedomBook.com ) ( http://Overview.TPOFBook.com ) ( https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-prayer-of-freedom-beatty-carmichael/1144175305?ean=9798989059102 ) ( https://a.co/d/bnxmYRV will take you to: Www.Amazon.Com "The Prayer of Freedom: God's breakthrough approach to prayer that frees you from many forms of chronic pain, chronic health issues, anxiety, trauma, addictions, and other life challenges" ) ( https://www.youtube.com/@BeattyCarmichaelTeaching will take you to: Www.YouTube.Com - Where you can see all of his videos and testimonials ) Let's find the spiritual algorithm of the Gods. Feel Free to try for yourself: Step 1. “Dear God, I want to get rid of this _____; and if there is a spiritual root at the bottom of it: I ask that you reveal it to me now. Reveal any sin I need to repent of, or any person that I need to forgive.” Step 2. “I Repent of ____ with ____” or “I forgive ____ for _____” If your apology involved another person “I break all unholy soul ties with, and release all judgements against those people I named.” Step 3. “And now, God, I ask that you remove my ____. Take it to zero, right now.” Talking to the issue: “____, In God's Name: I command you to leave, go out now.” I find this fascinating that it comes from a nearly agnostic principle, and seems to work for anyone. I tried it with Beatty and found some temporary success in alleviating pain in my back. Maybe I need to work at it more to make it consistent? In ranking news... April is now over, and the monthly rankings are all set: 1. The United States, with California, Oregon, and Washington; now in that order. 2. England of the United Kingdom. 3. Australia, with Queensland just one listener over New South Wales and a handful over Victoria. 4. Canada, with Ontario almost losing to British Columbia right at the end. 5. Hong Kong, barely holding out against New Zealand. That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode!

In this week's Ministry Minute, we talk about how, despite the storms and rain we've been facing in our personal lives, jobs, finances, and health, we can be encouraged that our situation is about to change for the better. Just as April showers bring May flowers, we are transitioning from our current difficulties into a season of growth and abundance, as God is doing a new thing and making a way for us. #BetterDays #Favor #MinistryMinuteYour Next Doesn't Look Like Your Now | Ministry Minute | EP261Romans 10:9:That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.We all have sinned, we all have made mistakes, but in spite of our imperfections, a perfect God sent His Perfect Son to die for those very imperfect sins, so we can have eternal life.

As if he didn't know LOL
In this week's episode of Ministry Minute, we delve into the powerful theme of "Glory to Glory." Witness how Jesus transitioned from His triumphant entry, to enduring the cross to pay our sin debt, and then triumphing over the grave. His sacrifice offers us the chance for eternal life. Will you accept His invitation to salvation?
Trouble is God never stops listening
One of the Twelve—the one called Judas Iscariot—went to the chief priests. . . . — Matthew 26:14 Sometimes I like watching TV shows about police, lawyers, investigators, and criminals. It can be intriguing to try to figure out a person's motive for committing a crime. Sometimes, even long after you can tell who the villain is, the motive is unclear till the very end of the story. I wonder sometimes what motivated Judas to betray Jesus. Was it greed? Was it power? Had he been hoping for an important place in Jesus' kingdom, then learned that Jesus wasn't about worldly power, and then decided to switch sides and join Jesus' enemies for a chance at power instead? Or was his motive maybe altruistic, as in knowing what Jesus had to do—go to the cross and die—and then trying to help that along? Or did Judas perhaps simply not like Jesus and the other disciples and decide he was done with it all? We don't really know. Sometimes I wonder about my own motivations too. Why do I follow Jesus? Why do I do anything that I do on a daily basis? It's important for all of us to examine our motivations from time to time. We need to look at the things we do and make sure we are doing them for the right reasons. Being motivated by love, care, compassion, or purpose is good. Being motivated by greed, personal ambition, or hate is not. What motivates you? Dear God, help us to identify and understand our motives. Help us to act in line with your love in everything we do. Amen.
In this week's Ministry Minute, we delve into the powerful question: "Who Are You Serving?" It's time to reflect on our priorities and ensure that nothing stands above Jesus in our lives. Let us commit to tearing down any idols that distract us from our true purpose. Choose today whom you will serve!
Are we getting too far ahead of ourselves to think the only danger may be resisting the infectious party atmosphere of the Barossa Valley for two days? Time to Restump Podcast the Tigger tussle! Arrogant confidence doesn't sit well with us so, considering we're playing in the Barossa Valley, let's call it Dutch courage. Whatever you want to call it, the reality is whichever way you look at, dissect and simply think about Sunday's clash, its difficult to find a way we get beaten.I know, I know, I'll jinx us and tempt fate, but to be honest even with all those factors thrown in, if we can't beat a side consisting of Tiger cubs, what are we even doing?We've recorded the pod prior to final teams being released but as far as squads go, Richmond has 17 players listed that have played under 50 games. We have 7. Right there that pretty much tells you all you need to know. Even if complacency somehow crept in, we'd right it before it was too late, wouldn't we? And that's not being deliberately disrespectful to the Tiges, its just that that is where the two teams are at. Welcoming back Sean Darcy and Hayden Young just makes you take a comforting sigh. They, along with Sammy Switkowski, have been gigantic outs and their absence has had substantial negative ramifications on how we've played as a team. Dear God, Universe, Source… whatever…. please allow them to remain injury free. In other news, with Geelong's Bailey Smith flipping a fan the double birds, the question needs to be asked. Should Harley Reid be fined for incitement and the normalising of poor behavior? As predicted, the Restump Investment Club has rapidly transitioned into a savage operation. However, lack of ability has never proven a hurdle to continue trying so the weekly muti and term deposit bets are back. Sunday morning, we eat Tiger meat on toast for brunch at 10.35am. But before then, if you're looking to waste 40 minutes of your life then feel free to throw it away with us guessing, investigating, estimating, hypothesizing about our rumble against Richmond.

He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. — Philippians 1:6 I remember a time when everything in my life seemed to be falling apart. I felt like a work in progress that had been abandoned. I began to doubt whether God's promises would be fulfilled in my life. Then a wise mentor reminded me of Philippians 1:6. She shared how God had been faithful in her own life, bringing her through trials and unfinished projects to a place of fulfillment and purpose. Her story gave me hope and renewed my faith in God's ability to complete his work in me. God is not like us; he does not leave things unfinished. When he starts a work in us, he is committed to see it through. The process of transformation and growth can be challenging and slow, but we can trust in God's perfect timing and faithfulness. In self-analysis, I see how God has been at work in my life, shaping me through both triumphs and trials. Every step, whether forward or seemingly backward, has been part of his plan to mold me into the person he created me to be. Today let's take comfort in knowing that God is faithful to complete the work he has started in us. No matter where we are in our journey, we can trust that God is working all things together for our good and to his glory. Dear God, thank you for your faithfulness in our lives. Help us to trust in your timing and process. Strengthen our faith, knowing that you will complete the good work you have begun in us. In Jesus' name, Amen.
In this week's episode of Ministry Minute, titled "Lock In," we emphasize the urgent call to dedicate our lives fully to Christ. Don't wait for tomorrow—take action today, repent and experience the joy of a transformed life!
Wondering if Jesus would have had a different experience if he'd lived to be my old age! LOL

When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. — 2 Corinthians 10:12 In my younger years, I often found myself caught in the trap of comparison. In one situation, for example, I wanted a promotion at work. I watched colleagues advance, seemingly effortlessly, while I struggled with feelings of inadequacy. The more I compared my progress to theirs, the more disheartened I became. I remember spending sleepless nights worrying about how I measured up, rather than focusing on my own growth and abilities. Looking back, I realize how harmful that was. It robbed me of joy and blinded me to the unique gifts and path God had in mind for me. In 2 Corinthians 10 we find some helpful advice about serving the Lord and not worrying about comparisons with others, especially if they think highly of themselves. Today, social media may often magnify the temptation to compare our lives with those of others. We see snapshots of success and happiness, but people rarely reveal their struggles and failures. It's crucial to remember that our worth is not defined by how we stack up against others but by our identity in Christ. As we go through life, let's focus on our personal growth and the unique path God has set before us. May we find contentment in his plan and trust that he is guiding us where we need to be. Dear God, help us to resist the urge to compare ourselves with others. Remind us of our unique worth and purpose in you. With your wisdom may we find contentment in you. Amen.

Bible Reading: 1 Timothy 1:12-17Hannah looked eagerly at the plates of food the waitress set down on the table. She could hardly wait to eat. "Hannah," said Dad, "why don't you lead us in giving thanks today?" Hannah glanced around the busy restaurant. "Right now?" she asked. "What if the waitress comes back with the ketchup?""I'm sure she won't mind waiting," said Dad, and they all bowed their heads. Hannah glanced around again, then mumbled a quick prayer.Luke looked up when she finished. "I couldn't even understand what you said!" "Me neither," said Phoebe. "You talked too fast.""I wasn't praying to you," said Hannah. "God understood me, and He knows I'm thankful.""Hannah's right," said Dad. "God does know what she prayed--but, Hannah, Luke and Phoebe are right too."Mom's eyes met Hannah's. "Do you find it embarrassing to pray?" she asked."No, not usually," said Hannah. "But everybody is watching us here.""Who is?" asked Luke, looking around."Well, it feels like everybody is watching us when we all close our eyes," said Hannah. "Why can't we pray with our eyes open?""It isn't your eyes that God is concerned about--it's your heart," said Dad. "We give thanks as a family before each meal because we know God is the one who provides food for us. He provides everything we need--including forgiveness for our sins and eternal life through Jesus. He has given us so much, and we want to thank Him with grateful hearts." "Exactly," said Mom. "Whether our eyes are open or closed or our prayer is silent or spoken out loud, the important thing is to remember that God provides us with everything we need and thank Him for it." Hannah stared down at her plate, thinking about her parents' words. Then she put down her fork. "Can I pray again?" Mom and Dad nodded."Dear God," Hannah began, and from her heart she thanked God for the food. She finished with a hearty "amen," which was repeated by another "amen" next to the table. Hannah looked up as the waitress smiled and handed her the ketchup. –Heather Tekavec How About You?Do you give thanks before each meal? Even when you're in public and other people can see you? If you feel embarrassed to close your eyes and pray out loud, remember that's not what God is concerned about. What matters to Him is your heart. Do you have a thankful heart? If so, pray and thank Him! Before a meal is often a good time to do that, whether silently or out loud, but don't stop there--give thanks for all the ways God provides for you. Today's Key Verse:Give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. (NLT) (Ephesians 5:20)Today's Key Thought:Thank God for what He provides

If I knew what God was doing maybe I'd look more like I knew what I was doing
Everybody knows you're not supposed to bargain with God. It's just a bad idea. God doesn't answer prayers that begin, “Dear God, if you just give me this one thing I'll do this other thing. For the rest of my life. I promise.”Theologically speaking, we don't give God our terms. He gives us His.But today we have an essay from someone who actually did bargain with God.

Happy Thursday Besties! In the intro we have a very VERY important question for the Healthcare workers- how tf do we tell you we are sick as the reason for needing an appointment, without sounding like BABY BACK BITCHES?!?!?! Once we get our Dr. Pep Cream Sodas, Morgan kicks off episode 225 with the ever requested case of the Moon Eyed People of Appalachia!!!!!!! Which some how leads into the longest ever ramble/tangent on Genetics and how tf they have evolved and how we wish we wouldn't have to go back to school to be able to actually study genes.. Dear God, Sorry. LMFAO But eventually, Taylar will tell us an absolutely horrific case that we honestly recommend you hold off on if you're not in the space for it. This is the 1987 Ina, IL Murder of the Dardeen Family- which she promised to come back to TWO YEARS AGO when it came up in episode 123... So here we are, fulfilling promises.

It shall burn out all dross of the mortal mind, smallness of nature, meanness of spirit, vindictiveness, jealousy. It shall burn out all carelessness of your habits, in the outer realms of your being. My Law and My Order can then function perfectly in your life. Then and then only will you be a worthy vessel for the inflow of My Spirit. Then and then only can My Spirit flow through you to other of My children. Likewise shall all disease be burned from the physical body, that nothing shall interfere with My Plan for your life. As the sigh of your spirit disturbs the flame and makes the candle drip, so the faintest wavering of your feet from the path of attainment causes a less steady burning of My Flame in your heart, and My Work goes on in imperfection. Oh, My Beloved, how necessary that you live with the eye single, to the high purpose of your calling. But you have many helpers. No soul who enters the path is left to walk alone. So go on, day by day, with the light and assurance of My Love in your face. Mighty Ones whom you see not, are by your side. And the forces of darkness shall touch you not."-Eva Bell Werber, ‘Quiet Talks the Master'"Dear God, help me to not lose sight of your presence when things are going well."-UnknownSupport the show
