"Carrie, I never knew that affected you..."These were the words spoken to Carrie when she confronted her abuser years after the sexual abuse happened in her own home.In today's episode of the Shine with Frannie Show, I sit down with author, podcaster, and coach Carrie Watts to discuss healing, redemption, and the transformative power of sharing your story. In this powerful and deeply moving episode, Carrie opens up about her personal journey through trauma and sexual abuse--which happens to 1:4 women and 1:10 men--and the process of confronting painful wounds while learning to trust Jesus in deeper and more intimate ways.Her newest book, Crisis of Faith, takes the heart of her personal memoir and reimagines it through fiction for young girls ages 13–15, creating a message of hope, healing, courage, and identity for the next generation.At the center of Carrie's mission is this truth: no matter what a girl faces, nothing is impossible with God on her side. Through faith, supportive community, and healing conversations, girls and women alike can rise above their pain and step into the purpose God has for their lives.In this episode, we discuss:The health benefits of journaling as powerful tools for healing, intimacy with God, and personal breakthroughHow unresolved trauma and hidden wounds can create a “crisis of faith”—and what true healing actually looks likeThe deeper message behind Crisis of Faith and why Carrie believes this generation of girls desperately needs hope-filled stories rooted in biblical truthIf you've ever wrestled with pain, questioned God in your suffering, or wondered if your story could ever be redeemed, this conversation will encourage you to keep healing, keep trusting, and keep moving forward in faith.ABOUT CARRIE:Carrie Watts is an author, speaker, and host of the Saved and Strong podcast.

Listeners have been telling us their thoughts about a recent episode of Radical with Amol Rajan, in which he interviewed Dr Suzanne O'Sullivan, a physician specialising in neurology and clinical neurophysiology. It was an in-depth discussion about the potential dangers of "over-diagnosis" - but some listeners felt that Dr O'Sullivan's views could have been challenged more.

Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Speaks, the podcast that explores how music can lift us out of the darkness and into hope. I'm your host, James Cox, a lifelong music‑lover who's turned his own struggles with depression into a mission: to prove that a good song can be a lifeline.In today's episode we sit down with Mark Anthony, a country‑singer‑songwriter‑producer from Franklin, Tennessee, whose career spans three decades, dozens of original songs, and a relentless DIY spirit. Mark shares:The pulse of Nashville today – from the honky‑tonk bars on Broadway to the sprawling venues that have turned the city into a “party capital.”The birth of the Mark Anthony Ensemble – how a 30‑year catalog of songs evolved into a live‑show that blends acoustic intimacy, rock‑driven energy, and unexpected genre twists.A behind‑the‑scenes look at independent artistry – why he signed with the indie label Iron Gate Records, the lessons of releasing music under a band name, and the realities of recording remotely with studio musicians.Songwriting secrets – why Mark writes melodies first, how he crafts tracks like “Always,” “Dance Until Dawn,” and the breakout single “Running Away,” and what it feels like to perform those lyrics live.Music as medicine – his belief that songs born from real life pain can bring hope to listeners on the brink, and his faith‑driven mission to give people a reason to keep listening.Whether you're a fellow musician navigating the indie landscape, a Nashville fan craving authentic stories from the city's evolving music scene, or simply someone looking for a reminder that music really does speak when words fail, this conversation is packed with honest anecdotes, practical tips, and a whole lot of soul.Grab your headphones, settle in, and let Mark's journey remind you why the right chord can change a life.

From Brokenness to Atonement, Faith, Hope, and Love: A Vietnam War Sniper’s Journey and a Psychiatrist’s Bibliotherapy by Hani Raoul Khouzam Mph Fapa MD https://www.amazon.com/Brokenness-Atonement-Faith-Hope-Love/dp/B0CC3X7Y6T This is a story of Mr. L, an orphan who was raised and nurtured by a devoted Carmelite nun, then drafted to serve as a skilled sniper during the Vietnam War. A journey of learning and mastering of the French language, excelling in the Little League baseball, discovering the art of hunting, and of an uttermost devotion to assigned military missions. A tale of grief, depression, anxiety, intermixed with bitterness, rage, fear, and delayed onset posttraumatic stress disorder with its most devastating aftermath of survivor’s guilt. Witnessing the emergence of innate talents, the gifts of left-handedness, and astounding suddenness of action in each and every providential and self-inflicted circumstances. Travelling through life in orphanages with boyish freedom, self-consciousness, and then an adulthood of giving of oneself and sacrificing of own needs to fulfill a patriotic mission, an acceptance of a higher calling to serve the poor and the disfranchised. Biographies are woven in the tapestry of the therapeutic alliance of a patient-and-physician relationship. As a reader, you will be invited to introspect and reflect on the wonder of the human brain, the bubbling joy of loving, and the gift of living. Will Mr. L descend into the abyss of ending his God-given gift of a well-deserved and joyful life or will he survive his heartbreaking sorrows and insurmountable guilt? Can brokenness be restored through faith, hope, love, and forgiveness? The answers could be revealed by reading this personal journey–a portrait of faith, grace, and the joy that rises from giving and loving.
Set in 2016, Joy, a 70-year-old grandmother, is plunged into crisis when the state declares it has no record of her existence. As the Hostile Environment tightens its grip, her daughter Glory seeks help from Serena Hope, a lawyer whose return reopens old tensions. At the same time, Joy's half sister Jean uncovers buried evidence that could decide Joy's fate.Faith, Hope and Glory is an ambitious Radio 4 drama series telling intimate domestic stories that together illuminate the emergence of modern Britain. The story began in 1946, when Hope and Jim's baby was entrusted to Eunice, later known as Faith, to take home to Antigua, but never made that journey and was taken in by Gloria and Clement. Named Joy, the child becomes the emotional centre of the series, her life unfolding across decades as personal lives intersect with social change.Joy . . . . . Doreene Blackstock Glory . . . . .

Part two of the "Seed Life" series. Pastor Richard answers the question, "Should we GIVE EXPECTING to RECEIVE anything from God?" He shows that the parable of the SOWER/FARMER is a picture of God Himself SOWING the SEEDS of HIS WORD. Just like a FARMER, we should SOW SEED and EXPECT HARVEST and GOD to MOVE.
