Jay Stringer is a therapist, author, and public speaker. He guides men and women to overcome unwanted sexual behaviors, and to discover how their story is shaping unwanted sexual behavior or betrayal trauma. He grew up as the son of a Protestant minister in the Presbyterian church, holds a master of Divinity and masters of Counseling Psychology, and is an ordained minister. Steven Shields, ACMHC CET1, is a therapist who acts as a guide to help others heal from trauma and addiction. As founder of Unashamed Unafraid, a non-profit organization, he hosts the podcast that shares hope for sexual addiction recovery. Unashamed funds scholarships for people to go to retreats and receive therapy. Steve works in his private practice in Salt Lake City, at OnSite in Nashville Tennessee, and at the Oaks in San Diego California doing trauma intensives and workshops. His favorite event to speak at is the WarriorHeart Bootcamp every year. Steve is unofficially the biggest Leading Saints and “KF” fan! In this podcast episode, Kurt and co-host Steve speak with Jay about how leaders can best provide help and guidance to those who have been affected by unwanted sexual behaviors. Jay Stringer Steve Shields Highlights 6:15 How can leaders help members with sexual brokenness? Leaders should stop trying to ‘manage' the problem but try to help the member find the core problem. 8:10 Unwanted sexual behavior is a roadmap to healing, not a life sentence to sexual shame or sexual addition. 9:30 Leaders need to listen to the stories and experiences that are behind the unwanted behavior. 13:30 Invite people to take authorship and authority over their unwanted behaviors. It's so much more than ripping out their behavior from their life. Behaviors and addictions come from somewhere much deeper. 17:00 Many people turn to unhealthy sexual behavior or porn because they lack purpose. 17:45 How can a leader create space to listen? Stories are what change the human heart. Stop the practical suggestions because they are not going to work. 20:10 Jay gives a list of questions that can help leaders in interviews. These questions will lead to stories and help the member connect the dots between the current unwanted sexual behavior and the past pain or underlying story. 22:30 You don't have to be a therapist but a safe place for people to share their stories. People don't always need suggestions but someone that has compassion for them. 30:00 How do you help members come to you to confess and talk about the problems they are having? 34:15 Shame convinces people to stay silent about their sexual brokenness. Leaders need to normalize talking about sex and porn. 40:45 Share your scars, not your wounds, when you are in leadership. Be vulnerable to share your scars and experiences too. God wants us to share our stories. 42:30 This is not just a men's issue but a human issue. Many women are also viewing pornography and having affairs. 47:30 While connection and community are very important to recovery and healing it's also very important to take time alone. You have to learn to sit with yourself and not just try to distract yourself all the time. 53:00 How can we find the right community?

Let's be honest, y'all - there's been a lot of transitions at Forefront recently and many of you have certainly been wondering what the future of our church is going to look like. Thankfully, with the commissioning of new Community Pastor, Josh Lee, we're all celebrating knowing what the next steps are going to look like as we work towards ushering in the next 500 years of Christianity! Deacon Jim is joined by Teaching Pastor, Venida Jenkins, and Executive Producer, Makenzie Gomez, to chat with Josh and help you all get a clearer picture of his story, his background, and how his journey of overcoming shame as a queer man ultimately led him to becoming the person that he is and Forefront's newest member of the Executive Council. ABOUT JOSH Josh's experiences have exposed him to a wide spectrum of thought, that compelled him to create greater unity among diversity. He has served as an Associate Pastor in the Assemblies of God & United Methodist Church, Youth Director in the American Baptist Church, Senior Pastor at an Independent Christian Church, and most recently as Co-Pastor at an Inter-denominational Church. Throughout his career and education, he has lived at the intersectionality of both the Christian and LGBTQIA+ community, instilling him with empathy to love God and people without exception. Josh earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Pastoral Studies from Moody Bible Institute and his Master of Divinity from Garrett Theological Seminary and is ordained in the United Church of Christ. Josh loves spending a night in with his partner Austin watching Netflix and enjoying peach cobbler or a night out together dancing with friends or shopping for more clothes!

Preaching for the First Sunday of Advent, Crista Carrick Mahoney offers a reflection on “staying awake,” even when we're already tired: “We've been on high alert for nearly two years, so sometimes these Advent reminders to stay awake, pay attention, be ready, only feed the weariness. It's ok to feel tired! In that barely awake state, in those moments when we feel more anxious, less patient, or we are just having an 'off day', we can still meet the world with love and compassion, because we, too, are being met as we are by a God who fulfills promises out of love and fidelity. Even in our tiredness, we can meet the world as it is with a posture of openness that will help wake us up and participate in the hope, peace, joy and love of this holy season of preparation.” Crista Mahoney earned her Master of Divinity from Boston College School of Theology and Ministry. Her professional ministry began in campus ministry at Emmanuel College in Boston, MA, then as the Catholic Chaplain on a multi-faith team at Babson College in Wellesley, MA, before returning to her alma mater, the College of the Holy Cross, to work with students on retreats and women's faith sharing groups. Crista also coordinates and edits the Return To Me: Lenten Reflection Series at Holy Cross.

God in Revelation unveils for us who Jesus is as both God and Man.  Why?  Because Jesus is the author and finisher of human history.  He is the central figure in Revelation.   The more we know who He is the more inspired and the more we will love Him. John begins to define Jesus's Divinity and then will move to describe Him as the Son of Man. In Jesus's own words He is the Alpha and Omega...the Almighty.  There is no doubt in Revelation that Jesus is far more than a man.  He is God When I read of Jesus in the Apokalypsis I am reminded of Isaiah 9.  This reveals to me that even in the Old Testament we are told God becomes a man.  So, let us explore this truth together and be inspired to love and serve Him.

On this episode, I had the honor to chat with Prisca Dorcas, author of For Brown Girls With Sharp Edges & Tender Hearts. On this interview she shares her journey from Nicaragua to the U.S. and why she started Latina Rebels and how she became a best-selling author. Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez was born in Managua, Nicaragua but calls Nashville, Tennessee home. She got her Masters of Divinity from Vanderbilt University in the Spring of 2015. The bulk of her work is around making accessible, through storytelling and curating content, the theories and heavy material that is oftentimes only taught in the racist/classist institutions known as academia. To date she has participated in the Young Adult anthology "Nevertheless, We Persisted." Recently Prisca also participated in an anthology edited by Lynda Lopez titled, "The Fearless Rise and Powerful Resonance of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez." She started the platform Latina Rebels in 2013, and currently it boasts over 300k organic followers online. She has been featured in Telemundo, Univision, Mitú, Huffington Post Latino Voices, Guerrilla Feminism, Latina Mag, Cosmopolitan, Everyday Feminism, and was invited to the White House in the Fall of 2016.

Controversy, confusion and confidence in God's goodness, from antiquity to present. After being graduated from New York University with a B.A. in philosophy and Phi Beta Kappa, Rabbi Wayne Allen, Ph.D. attended the Jewish Theological Seminary of America where he earned a Masters degree in Rabbinics and went on to receive rabbinic ordination. He served as a congregational rabbi for 35 years, taking on postings in New York City, Los Angeles, and Toronto. The Jewish Theological Seminary conferred an honorary Doctor of Divinity upon him for his years of dedicated service. Rabbi Allen was awarded a Masters degree in Philosophy from York University in Toronto where went on to earn his Ph.D. He has taught Jews and non-Jews of all ages in formal and informal settings including the American Jewish University, the University of Waterloo, the Community Hebrew Academy of Toronto, and Camp Ramah in California. Along with Harvey Haber he wrote Giving Thanks: Graces for All Occasions. Among his interests has been Jewish Law. As the author of Perspectives on Jewish Law and Contemporary Issues and Further Perspectives on Jewish Law and Contemporary Issues as well as editor of the first two volumes of Tomeikh keHalakhah, the responsa collection of the Union for Traditional Judaism, Rabbi Allen gained recognition as an authority on the application of Jewish legal principles in a modern context. He was a frequent panelist for Jewish Values On-line and has appeared on radio and television. Other interests include cantorial music – leading to the publication of his book on The Cantor: From Mishnah to Modernity – and mediating Judaism to inquiring minds, resulting in his book Prescription for an Ailing World. The most comprehensive book on the topic, "Thinking about Good and Evil: Jewish Views from Antiquity to Modernity" traces the most salient Jewish ideas about why innocent people seem to suffer, why evil individuals seem to prosper, and God's role in such matters of (in)justice, from antiquity to the present.

I am so honored to welcome today's guest, Dr. Jeffery Rediger. Dr.Rediger, is medical director and an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. He has a Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary and publishes in the fields of medicine, psychiatry and spirituality.His work has been featured on the Oprah, Mind Body Green, Goop and Dr. Oz shows, among others. He is the renowned author of “Cured,” which is by far and wide one of the most life changing books I've ever read. What makes this interview so special is that his work has personally touched my life as I discovered the book “Cured” during a pivotal time on my healing journey as I was being diagnosed with an Inflammatory Bowel Disease called Chron's disease. Chron's Disease is said to be an incurable, lifelong illness. Today, we'll be journeying more into what it looks like according to science to reverse the incurable as well as unlocking the source code to spontaneous healing, strengthening your immune system and living a “Cured” lifestyle. I promise you, this is going to be an extremely life-changing, knowledge packed and informative interview, so let's dive in! "The very subject (of his book )is taboo in mainstream medicine, Jeffrey Rediger writes in the introduction to his new book, "Cured" Faced with recoveries they can neither explain nor replicate, doctors tend to dismiss such cases as flukes, one-offs. This compelling book is the result of 17 years spent tracking these people down and verifying their stories."- Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/miracle-cures-that-hold-lessons-for-western-medicine/2020/03/05/93056b22-49f4-11ea-bdbf-1dfb23249293_story.html Buy his life-changing book here :https://www.amazon.com/dp/1250193192?tag=onamzallgoodj-20&linkCode=ic5&ascsubtag=amzn1.infl.us.product&creativeASIN=1250193192&ref=exp_brittanybacinski_dp_vv_d ***I don't know about you, but a huge part of healing my body started with lowering my overall inflammation in my body, not only with diet but by taking supplements that are scientifically proven to actually have that effect on our bodies. After being diagnosed with Chron's Disease, I dove headfirst into research that supported healing. In that, I found taking CBG oil to be a huge part of my road to remission. CBG oil is known as the "stem cell" of all cannabinoids, with less than 1% of CBG naturally occurring in cannabis plants. This formula is targeted towards your gut and skin health. CBG will be your #1 support team if you are suffering from IBS. This formula is also our go-to for pre and post-workout bliss as well as our daily brain booster.

Ever wondered if people actually experienced a true miracle?  A miracle isn't just some feeling or coincidence, but something that just can't be dismissed with a naturalistic explanation. We challenged our guests to describe their own experience with miracles...and we did it LIVE and in public at North Carolina's largest flea market, with Monica Perez-Burnett and Isaac Leeward. Monica Perez-Burnett is a wife, mom of 8 (including 2 sets of twins), and a business coach with 29 years of experience in various industries. She is the Founder of Faith Led Business, Mon Ministries, and is Chief Global Ministries Officer for Sanctuary Girl. She helps entrepreneurs complete their God-given assignment in business by teaching them how to go from Invisible to Influential for Him. She brings believers to healing and deliverance through her ministry, and motivates women to walk out their faith through inspiring products at Sanctuary Girl. Monica has lived in North Carolina for 5 years, but was born and raised in the California Bay Area. She is bilingual in Spanish and loves all things tech, spending time with her husband, kids, clients, and in the closet. Monica believes we are in a time where God is calling His people back to Him and she wanted to join us on Miracles & Atheists to share His love for His children through healing. Isaac Leeward was a stillborn baby, but through divine intervention he was brought back to life. Later in life, he was taken to heaven and was captivated by its wonder. Isaac has been supernaturally saved from death eight times!  He studied theology at Christ For The Nations Institute in Dallas, TX and also did some graduate studies at Regent University School of Divinity in Virginia Beach VA. Isaac is the author of Encounters with the Supernatural, a compelling account which will provoke you into a deeper hunger for daily encounters with the reality of a good God. He wanted to be part of this project to tell world about the reality of our Heavenly Father.  Apply to be our Guest on M&A The Miracles & Atheists Livestream Connect with M&A on Facebook Follow M&A on Instagram Watch M&A on YouTube Follow M&A on Twitter Rate & Review M&A on iTunes Listen on your favorite podcast platform

In today's episode, Dr. John Goldingay shares his approach to studying the Old Testament -- and ways he prepares to write Biblical commentaries. He encourages us to study our Bible with both an analytical and spiritual mind – and to come to the Bible humbly with our questions. He also shares tremendous wisdom on how to deal with passages in the Old Testament that perhaps don't make sense to us, and how to better explore and question those difficult texts. He shares his insights on the Book of Joshua and ways to understand the battle of Jericho. He also discusses a scripture reading plan to help us thoughtfully read through the entire Bible three chapters at a time. Dr. John Goldingay studied theology at Oxford, earned his PhD from the University of Nottingham, and a Doctor of Divinity from the Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth.

Preaching for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Sr. Christa Parra, IBVM offers a reflection on accompanying each other - and especially asylum seekers - through terrifying times: "Life is not as terrifying when we know that we are not alone. The Psalm today is similar to the song Stand By Me as it emphasizes that with God at my right hand, I will not be disturbed. My heart, body, and soul are confident because God does not abandon me. These words resonate with the stories from our families seeking asylum. There is a deep trust in God's constant presence and faith that God will continue to lead us on the path of life. We are God's beloved ones, God's darlins', called to 'stand by' one another knowing that God always 'stands by' us." Sister Christa Parra, IBVM is part of an inter congregational and intercultural community in El Paso, Texas where she loves and serves God's beloved people at the U.S./Mexico border. A third-generation Mexican American, she earned her Master of Divinity and a certificate in Hispanic Theology and Ministry at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. She professed final vows with the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 2016.

There is so much pressure these days to do it all. This is why Dianne decided to conduct the Mary experiment. She decided to focus on being, instead of doing. This book was so helpful to me! I am so excited to share our conversation with all of you. Hard-working. Dependable. Consistent. Reliable. These words appropriately describe Dianne Deaton Vielhuber. Raised on a small Wisconsin dairy farm, her parents instilled these and other traditional Midwest values. Dianne earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Agricultural Journalism. After working in communications and marketing within agriculture for many years, she felt called to serve overseas as a missionary. After a life-changing year teaching English at a university in Almaty, Kazakstan, Dianne expected to return to the business world. Rather, God called her into pastoral ministry. Dianne earned a Master of Divinity from the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary while serving as a student pastor. Ordained an elder within The United Methodist Church, Dianne served five churches over a 20-year span. These days, Dianne yearns for new words to describe her: Grounded in God. Relatable. Practical faith journey. Assisting others to journeying with God. She writes regularly for her blog, Simple Words of Faith, where she explores finding God in our ordinary lives. Dianne journeys through her life with Hubby Rick. They have six grandchildren and Rick's adult children. A self-proclaimed recovering over-doing Martha, Dianne incorporates Mary-like attitudes in her life through gardening, reading and exercising. They have remodeled a 110-year-old Victorian farmhouse in south-central Wisconsin. Find Dianne at her Website and you can purchase her book Here.

I talk about shaking up your spiritual connection this week, inviting you to evaluate what this part of your life looks like and how it could look when you are more intentional and nurturing of the relationship with the divine source. It doesn't have to look a certain way, but sometimes we get caught up in the contentedness of what we are doing, we forget that growth happens when we shift things up and step further into this way of life.   Work with me 1:1 - book a discovery call today Also, did you know there are THREE ways you can connect with me outside of the show? #1 - Over on my fave social media platform - Instagram @katrinaalelli    #2 - My FREE Facebook group, “Be Rooted Sisterhood” is for women who listen to the show, are looking for a community to grow, uplevel and are passionate about fulfilling their souls purpose.   #3 - Questions, comments, topic or show suggestions?

When we leave the results of NOT DRINKING, up to chance, 99% of the time, it will win. The other 1% is you holding on for dear life.In today's episode I talk about how the result of not drinking is 100% in your control.When we give away our power to ANY presence outside our ourselves, our results will stay open-ended, up to chance.  And we will live a life of uncertainty.If you want reliable results, you need an unconditional commitment to yourself that no matter what happens or how inconvenienced you might be, it's worth knowing the power is in your hands.When you commit to making yourself your #1 priority, alcohol starts to take a back seat, naturally.

Women's Toldos Class: This weekly women's class waspresented on Tuesday, Parshas Toldos, 27 Cheshvan, 5782, November 2, 2021, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. The class explores a fascinating commentary by the Italian Rabbi, Doctor and Kabalist, Reb Moshe David Vali (1697-1777) how Yitzchak's words to Eisav "you shall worship your brother" intimates the future religion of Christianity, choosing a Jew as the son of G-d, and is a sign for the times of Moshiach when the Divinity of each Jew will emerge in its full splendor. The class discusses and explained the very delicate topic of the strange fact that Judaism attributes the name of G-d to certain human beings. How can we explain this? And what does this teach us about our lives today?

Declaration of Divinity - Part 5 We get the question a lot - "Why do we have so many LGBTQ saints?"  This question we discuss in this episode and how we feel as mother's of LGBTQ children that our LGBTQ children have an important purpose here on earth.  That they were sent down to earth at this time to teach others and to do specific missions for their Heavenly Father.  Jenie and Allison discuss the beauty of what their diversity brings and how diversity makes the body of Christ perfect only with its diversity. To quote Bishop Gérald Caussé, Presiding Bishop,  “unity is not achieved by ignoring and isolating members who seem to be different.”4 Christ's unity is not subtractive, whereby we disregard the significance of our differences. It is additive. This episode talks about how we can better strive to understand, to appreciate, and to integrate our differences in order to carry out the Lord's work. This is an important episode about how essential diversity is for Christ's church. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/2019/07/the-blessings-of-diversity?lang=eng   Declaration of Divinity - Part  5 PURPOSE - We believe that our LGBTQ children have been sent to earth at this time for a divine mission. Their diversity is essential to the body of Christ and we are not whole without them. They are here to teach us and it is our responsibility to ask God what He wants us to know and how we can better love His children.

I was feeling frustrated with a lot of negative energy surrounding me as of late. Just because you are working hard to be tuned into your core to really understand your full meaning, does not make being a human any easier.In this episode, I talk the power of your spiritual awakening and path. I tell a story of how my 7 second TikTok video went viral, showed an outline of my path to clarity, and brought out some nasty comments all along the way. Everything towards your true divinity is all found within you. Yes, there are outside forces and resources that help guide you, but through this episode, I will explain exactly how I went from being on several medications, having several diagnosis, to completely being devoid of any of those and living my true self!If you have interest in learning more on my journey to discovering my true deep divinity, find me on IG @malorieavaline or at my website on www.malorieavaline.com.

The choice to not have children is a path a lot of folks take, and it can often come with a stigma. There's often a response those folks get when they tell others they don't want kids - everything from “Are you sure?” or “One day you'll change your mind.” Today we have on Rev. Liz Miller to talk about why saying some of those things can cause harm, and how they are really rooted in the notion that women, or folks with wombs, are only made to bear children. So, while talking directly about the choice to not bear children, we are also doing a little bit of patriarchy dismantling. Brick by brick, right?Liz has a particularly unique perspective on the choice to have children , which they'll share more about in the interview. Most folks, regardless of gender but especially women, have to extricate themselves from the narrative that children will inevitably be a part of their story. But Liz was given a very different lens to understand parenting as one particular call/vocation - but not THE call of their life in particular. Whether having kids is a part of your story or not, this interview is full of incredible insight on the benefit of choosing not to have kids and how we can better come alongside those folks who make that choice for themselves....Rev. Liz Miller (she/they) is the Pastor at Edgewood United Church UCC in East Lansing, MI. Originally from California, she graduated from Agnes Scott College in Georgia, earned her Master of Divinity from Andover Newton, and previously served a congregation in South Glastonbury, Connecticut. In her local community she serves on her city's Human Rights Commission. She is a writer, a spouse, a quilter, and a triathlete.

GROWTH INVOLVES SUFFERING, AND LIFE IS A SERIES OF MICRO DEATHS. What exactly is the price of walking the sacred spiritual path? Where does pain end and peace begins? In this episode of The Time of the Feminine, Alana Fairchild shares what it means to channel the Divine Wisdom in our daily life and serve the heart despite our worldly fears. While most of us see death as the end, Alana sees it as the beginning of another lifetime. She introduces the Dark Goddess Kali and guides us away from the fear of dying into the truth of rebirth. Rage and anger can be transformed into an energy, and Alana gives us the tools to make it happen. For her, the divine feminine intelligence doesn't give us control of things; it teaches us to give up control and let the Spirit work for us. How do we learn to let go of the world and listen to our soul? How do we navigate our worst traumas and find joy in the unknown? Alana Fairchild is a modern mystic and best-selling author whose work greatly influenced the mission of the Global Sisterhood. In the past 9 years, she's created over 20 oracle decks, 13 books, and 27 albums of sacred music and meditation. Her work has been translated in 11 languages and continues to awaken souls across the globe.   What we discuss… 4:20 - Alana's encounter with the Divine Feminine while grappling with the systems of fear, control, and oppression 9:20 - From a depressed law student to an enlightened psychic: Lessons on the divine feminine intelligence 13:08 - The price of going through the Divine Feminine Initiation 19:26 - A prayer to the heart, and how to navigate the crippling fear of the unknown 26:12 - What's the Kuan Yin Transmission? 30:40 - Redefining death and placing it in the context of the beautiful rebirth 39:40 - Connecting with the Dark Goddess Kali, and calling on her life-altering power 50:46 - How to consciously express the Feminine and confront rage, darkness, negativity, and evil 1:02:37 - Transforming our worst emotions into a power source 1:07:05 - Finding universality amid diversity by going back to the heart 1:12:14 - What's the message of the Divine Mother to us?   Learn more about Alana:  Website: www.alanafairchild.com Instagram: @alana_fairchild Courses: healing.alanafairchild.com      Connect with Lauren and Shaina: Website: https://www.globalsisterhood.org/ Instagram: @theglobalsisterhood
