Podcasts about do when life

Wake Up Call: "What to Do When Life is Unfair" By Bobby Wallace, Lead Minister 5/5/24 This we tackle a difficult passage of scripture. How do we keep moving forward when life is unfair. The sad reality is that life is often unfair and we must keep going.

Sometimes life can be a bit much, especially around Christmas time. It can be hard to keep a good attitude. If you aren't feeling the Christmas Spirit this year, or even a sense of God's presence in your life, it's time to do something about it! On Sunday, December 17, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives us Three Things to Do When Life is Full.

Draw Near Message 3: What to Do When Life is Hard Jeff Patton: Psalm 4

Struggling is an unfortunate part of the human condition, but how do we show up for our people when we see that they're struggling? When someone we love is suffering, we often want to fix it even if that's impossible. How can we show up for others and what should we say? Listen in as Tina and Serena talk about how they support others and what things are helpful (and not helpful) to say to our people when they struggle. Episode Mentions:There is No Good Card for This: What to Say and Do When Life is Scary, Awful and Unfair to People You Love by Kelsey Crowe and Emily McDowellEmily McDowell and Friends Cards and Products emandfriends.comThe Art of Showing Up: How to Be There For Yourself and Your People by Rachel Wilkerson MillerVisit our website: NoNeedToExplainPodcast.comLike us on Facebook!Find us on Instagram @noneedtoexplainpodcastWe love to hear from you!

I think we can all agree, it’s been a rough spring with COVID-19 taking over our lives. You may know someone who’s sick, or who’s lost a loved one or their livelihood, or any number of awful things. But as this all goes down, we don’t always know what to say, or do, for someone who’s hurting, let alone asking for the help we might need ourselves. My guest Kelsey Crowe wrote a book, “There is No Good Card For This. What to Say and Do When Life is Scary, Awful, and Unfair to the People You Love” and founded a whole community called Help Each Other Out, to help us help each other. We spoke in 2017 and I thought we could all use a bit of what she calls “whiskey for the wounded.” Support our production with a monthly or one-time contribution!

Christina Levasheff had a beautiful and simple life with her husband, young son, and infant daughter.  When her 29 month old son, Judson, began to show some atypical physical symptoms, Christina and her husband began the process of seeking medical attention to discover what was going on.  After some incorrect diagnoses, Judson was ultimately diagnosed with Krabbe Leukodystrophy Disease, a genetic disease that destroys the white matter in the brain.  In just five months, the Levasheffs watched their bright and active two year old lose vision, speech, and all body movements to eventual death.  Throughout the short but intense suffering, Judson retained his mental functioning and joy.  As with all the stories told through Tears of Gold, this is a story of suffering and heartache, but it is also a story of how God met Christina in her pain.  It is a story of how the compassionate Lord gathered her in His arms and comforted her in ways only the good Father can.  And how God has taken that pain and transformed it into a ministry of hope to walk alongside others in their pain.  Christina and her husband, Drake, and their daughter, Jessie use Judson's Legacy to bless the children and families walking a similar journey they did.  I pray you'll be blessed as you hear Christina's sharing in this episode.

Barbara has spent her life, both professionally and personally, working to have balance in her life between work, play, love and being the “individual she really is”. At the age of 59, she is starting to catch on that it’s all important, and to not take it all quite so seriously all the time. (Easier said than done.)             “Ring ShuiTM”- “More About Move your Rings-Change Your LifeTM  Revised and Expanded” is her fourth and most fun book. She also wrote, “What to Do When Life is Driving You Crazy!” and “How To Escape The No-Win Trap!”. While “Ring Shui” involves rings, hands and energy, it is really about finding the balance between loving yourself and loving others- all at the same time as much a possible!             After conducting over 475 workshops, guesting on over 300 radio, T.V, and internet shows, and having had her own internet/radio shows, she has finally come to appreciate how the everyday and seemingly “ordinary” moments in your life are where the love gets to find you and how nothing seems to really feel like “home” without having love. (And don’t we need it all!) Barbara has been in private practice in Rancho Cucamonga as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 1992, specializing in midlife crises; is married to her wonderful and patient husband George; and has a daughter, Brittany, who lives in Oakland. And, some days just seem to make more sense than others!
