In this captivating episode of Soul Elevation, I was eager to sit down with Kristina Amelong, author of 'What My Brother Knew.' I found Kristina's memoir profound, detailing her brother's uncanny psychic prediction of his own death, her personal journey through grief and trauma, and cultural attitudes towards death. Our conversation also explores Kristina's expertise in holistic health, including the benefits of colonics and enemas, which were pivotal in her recovery from chronic illness. Kristina's story of overcoming a traumatic childhood, addiction, and health challenges to find spiritual and physical healing is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. Additionally, we explore the powerful synchronicities that have guided her professional path, leading to the founding of the Optimal Health Network where she helps others heal through natural protocols. Kristina and I both felt the spirit of her brother, Jay, before we recorded, and we sensed he orchestrated the synchronicities which brought us together. May you be inspired and propelled on your spiritual journey through their shared story.

The two guarentees in life are death and taxes. Maybe not today, but death is out there, real and heavy. Who's in your corner when the end closes in? St. Joseph, Patron of the Dying, the guy who died with Jesus and Mary at his side, offering you a happy death if you lean on him. In this Lenten Reflection, we tackle the unavoidable head-on. Joseph's not just a saint for the cozy moments but he is the steady hand turning fear into peace. St. Alphonsus Liguori and Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich back it up: he left this world surrounded by holiness, showing us how to die in God's grace. Our culture dodges death; Joseph embraces it, teaching us to live better by facing it. Your challenge: take one minute today. Reflect on your death: who is there, and what matters? It's not about more shifts or cash but about relationships with God and family. Hit play, grab your coffee, and let's stare down the end with St. Joseph's grit.Keywords: St. Joseph, Catholic men, Patron of the Dying, Lent reflection, memento mori, death, faith, Manly Catholic podcast Products/References: Catechism: Paragraph 1014 Book: The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter Tradition: St. Alphonsus Liguori, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich (Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary) Contact: themanlycatholic@gmail.com Powerful Quotes: “When we reflect on death more and more throughout our day... it changes how we behave in the here and the now.” “St. Joseph is the patron of the dying because he gets the struggle... he's that man to go to for a happy death.” “At the end of the day, that's all that matters—our relationship first and foremost with God... and then with the people that God entrusted to us.”Key Takeaway:Take one minute today to think about your death—what you'd regret, who you'd want near.

What does it mean to trust God in our darkest valleys? This week, Dr. Scott McKee explores one of the most personal and powerful lines of Psalm 23: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.” With heartfelt vulnerability, Dr. McKee shares reflections from his own journey through serious illness and reminds us that valleys—whether of grief, illness, or fear—are never the destination. They are places of God's presence and provision. Through rich imagery, scriptural depth, and pastoral wisdom, this message invites us to rediscover the comfort, strength, and fearless hope found in the Good Shepherd who walks with us always—even through death's shadow. A deeply moving and faith-anchoring sermon for anyone navigating a valley of their own.
We all face valleys—times of darkness, uncertainty, and fear. But what if we could walk through them with confidence? In Week 4 of our journey through Psalm 23, Small Groups Director Sarah de Jong leads a conversation with Pastor Scott McKee and Pastoral Resident Sarah Horton about what it means to trust the Good Shepherd in our hardest seasons. How does His presence change the way we experience suffering? Why does this verse shift from talking about God to talking to Him? This discussion explores the hope, comfort, and courage we find when we know we are never alone.

Paul, Robert, and Liz continue their conversation on Jesus' passion, looking at how Jesus begins to face his coming death. To celebrate the complete Person of Jesus series, we're offering $5 off of Unit 5: The Passion Leader's Manual (digital version) when you use promo code: POD5 "Paul's line on that from Romans 5 is actually a very stoic-like passage where he says rejoice in your suffering, because suffering produces perseverance, character – all the Greeks would have agreed with that. But then Paul goes Jesus, so to speak. He says, '…and character, hope, and it's a hope that does not disappoint because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit that he's given to us.' The Spirit brings resurrection, not in just in Jesus, but in our souls; we have resurrected souls." "A life in communion with Christ continually experiences resurrection power. This doesn't mean there's no sadness, but we're not engulfed by sadness." "Older, traditional Christianity, as we've said, has tended to be focused on duty, which has many good sides but tends to suppress feelings. The modern world tends to be aware of, magnify, and even get stuck in feelings. So here we see the beautiful balance of Jesus. He is aware that he is troubled, and he knows where this is leading, but he's not ruled by his feelings, which is just beautiful. He says, 'for this very reason I came to this hour.' "
Surviving a snowboarding accident at such a young age leaves an indelible mark on one's life. On today's episode, Nick Prefontaine shares his powerful story from his eighth-grade ski trip where a lack of a helmet turned a day of fun into a fight for survival. Without the crucial protection of his goggles and the timely response from a skilled paramedic, Nick's story might have ended differently. He courageously takes us through his harrowing journey of recovery, where he had to relearn the fundamentals of life—walking, talking, and reclaiming his sense of self. His determination and resilience shine as he reflects on how these life-altering experiences paved the way for his life's purpose, hoping to inspire others to pursue their dreams regardless of the hurdles they encounter.

"Between now and dead, you've got a purpose. Don't be timid." Before she retired as a hospice chaplain, Reverend Victoria Burdick faced her own death several times. In her 30s while in divinity school, she wrote a series of essays she called "Lunch with Heron." In one of those essays, "The Tall Ships," she recounts the breast cancer diagnosis that led her to the Festival of the Tall Ships in Europe, and her harrowing ordeal crewing on a ship with a captain and crew who were rarely sober. One night, exhausted after an 18-hour shift at the helm, and weak from the cancer drugs she was taking, Victoria, mother of two young girls, came face-to-face with what was now an 8-week prognosis. Her self-determined transformation empowered her to survive. The day she pulled her rigging knife on the captain--the day she caught him molesting his young daughter-- confirmed the strength growing inside her. Victoria is descended from seven generations of sailmakers, seafarers, and what she proudly terms "warf rats." Growing up on the water prepared her for the ordeal described in the book and movie "The Perfect Storm." Yes, she, her father, and other members of her family's crew were on one of the ships caught in that storm. It comes as no surprise that when faced with the diagnosis of cancer, she sought to do battle on the deck of a ship, a place where she had once before beaten death. Victoria personifies courage and the determination to survive, two qualities needed by those of us caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or other dementia. The "Lunch with Heron" essays are not published. Victoria Burdick graciously agreed to share one of the essays here with the hope that her experience might inspire others.
