A child to say they're sorry, reconciliation, or an important prayer to be answered? Maybe you're waiting for the bullying or betrayal to stop—or lying, hating, injustice, corruption, or hurt. Or perhaps you are in a crisis of faith that needs to be resolved.In this message from Habakkuk, Jill Briscoe offers encouragement for the tough times in life.

Ready for a Spiritual Fresh Start? Looking to deepen your prayer life beyond the holiday season? Download our free guide to Carmelite spirituality to help you navigate the new year with purpose and peace: https://midnightcarmelite.com/reset The decorations are coming down, the carols are ending, and the emotional "high" of Christmas is beginning to wane. But what happens when the angels stop singing and you're left in the quiet of a cold January? In this episode, we explore how to transition from the temporary feelings of the holidays into a "naked faith"—the kind of faith that sustains you when God feels distant and the path ahead is lit only by the faint glow of starlight. Summary As the festive glow of Christmas begins to fade, how do we transition from fleeting holiday emotions to a steady, persistent faith? Today, we dive into the profound contrast between the shepherds and the Magi. While an explosion of angelic glory greeted the shepherds, the Magi had to endure a long, quiet journey guided by a single star. We discuss why most of our spiritual lives look more like the Magi's trek than the shepherds' visitation. You'll discover how to recognize God's presence in the ordinary, the beauty of the Eucharist, and why the mystery of the Incarnation is the ultimate proof of God's infinite love for you—even when you don't "feel" it. Key Takeaways The Shepherd vs. The Magi Experience: Understand why God sometimes gives us "angelic" consolations and why, at other times, He asks us to walk by the "starlight" of pure faith.Finding God in the Ordinary: How to recognize Emmanuel (God with us) in your daily life and the Eucharist, even when you aren't experiencing big spiritual visions.The Power of the Incarnation: Why God becoming man is the ultimate answer to your deepest questions and the necessary starting point for all spiritual growth.Walking the "Starlight" Path of Faith: Practical encouragement for staying faithful to your prayer life when the pomp and circumstance of the season disappear.

  As the year comes to a close and Christmas draws near, this episode is an invitation to slow down and rethink what actually makes a year meaningful. If you're ending the year feeling like you didn't do enough, didn't accomplish enough, or didn't have any big, flashy "banner moments," this conversation is for you. What if the ordinary years—the quiet, unseen, seemingly mundane ones—are actually where God does His deepest and most transformative work? In this episode, Blake reflects on a lifetime of big dreams, ambition, and achievement, and how this year gently (and sometimes painfully) reshaped her understanding of purpose. From dreams of being a lawyer and living a "big" life, to seasons of stay-at-home motherhood, to years in podcasting and political commentary, God has repeatedly drawn her close enough to the spotlight to ask the question: Do you still want this? This year, the answer surprised her. God invited her into a slower, simpler, more ordinary rhythm—one that prioritized home, children, marriage, nervous-system healing, and time in Scripture. What felt at first like a downgrade or a pulling back revealed itself as protection, formation, and deep peace. Scripture itself is filled with ordinary faithfulness: farming, shepherding, raising children, waiting, wandering, and quiet obedience. The big miracles were never the whole story. Blake shares how stepping away from constant digital noise, limiting headlines, embracing small rituals, practicing audacious gratitude, and finding beauty in everyday moments has reshaped her identity. Faithfulness, not flashiness, is what God values. Bigger burdens don't always mean bigger blessings—and sometimes the most impactful work is the work no one sees. If your life feels small, overlooked, or slower than you hoped, be encouraged: nothing surrendered to God is wasted. The ordinary is holy ground, and God meets us there.

What happens when trauma, mental illness, or burnout make you feel like your purpose has been taken from you? In this bonus episode of Affirming Truths, Carla sits down with Christian mental health therapist, podcaster, and mom Jazmin Ruiz for a deeply grounding conversation about purpose - not as productivity, performance, or career, but as relationship. Together, they explore why so many women feel aimless even when they're "doing all the right things," how trauma fuels control and self-reliance, and why Scripture calls us back to being with God before doing anything for Him. Jazmin shares both clinical insight and personal testimony, helping listeners redefine purpose through a biblical lens rooted in safety, security, and intimacy with the Lord. If you've ever wondered whether your pain disqualified you from God's plans - or felt lost in the fog of uncertainty - this episode will gently remind you that your purpose was never tied to what you produce, but to who you belong to. Jazmin Ruiz is a Christian Mindset and Business Coach who helps women break free from limiting beliefs, embrace their true identity in Christ, and build lives and businesses that honor God. She equips women to replace mental blocks with biblical truth, establish systems that create freedom, and step boldly into their God-given calling. She is the creator of the I Am Identity Journal and is the host of the Building Her Up podcast, where she incorporates biblical principles to guide women closer to God while building their businesses. Jazmin's mission is to empower women to rise above fear and self-doubt, so they can live, lead, and leave a legacy rooted in faith.

We tend to believe that trials and times of fear or grief, mean we've done something wrong. We feel that if we just prayed more, were more faithful with our spiritual disciplines, etc, we would feel fine, even through the worst! But Scripture offers a different picture. Feeling our grief, fear, and pain, while lifting it all to God is prayer. Feeling bad is NOT a sign that I am bad. It's an honest experience and expressing it to God is a powerful and intimate connection with God.  And more than that, our deep longings point to a deeper, more real reality that is waiting for us in the resurrection!

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What's Your Spiritual Story? is a continuing series from God: An Autobiography, The Podcast that invites real people to share the journeys that shaped their spiritual lives. Each episode explores how the search for meaning, identity, and connection unfolds through personal experience—and how God meets us in surprising ways.In this week's conversation, Amanda joins Dr. Jerry L. Martin to reflect on the path that brought her from a childhood marked by instability to a life of seeking, learning, and slowly opening toward the spiritual dimension. She describes how psychology and philosophy helped her make sense of the world, how meditation and sacred texts offered moments of grounding, and how discovering a God who suffers with us reshaped her understanding of love and presence. Her story highlights the quiet ways growth can emerge from vulnerability and how even confusion, pain, and uncertainty can become part of a meaningful spiritual journey.If you've ever wondered whether God is present in the difficult places of life—or whether your own story “counts” as spiritual—this episode offers gentleness, curiosity, and hope. It's a reminder that the search itself matters, and that there are many ways God reaches out along the way.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare your thoughts or questions at questions@godandautobiography.com

There are moments in life when the world around us seems bright and festive, yet our own hearts feel dimly lit. That contrast can sting—especially during the holiday season, when expectations of joy are high and reality often feels far from picture-perfect. Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, shares a powerful story of encountering Emmanuel in one of the loneliest places imaginable: a hospital waiting room at 3 AM. Instead of twinkling lights, she faced fluorescent glare. Instead of joyful noise, she faced the anxious hum of machines and rushed footsteps. And yet—it was there she felt the weight of Jesus’ name in a new way. God with us didn’t begin—and doesn’t end—in a Bethlehem stable. Emmanuel is God with us in the places we never wanted to be. God with us when fear tightens our chest. God with us when plans unravel. God with us when holiday expectations crash into painful realities. The incarnation isn’t just a Christmas story; it is the eternal declaration that God stepped into our humanity so we would never face anything alone. In every waiting room, every heartbreak, every sleepless night, every holiday that feels heavy—He is still Emmanuel. God with us. God with you. Right now. Bible Reading:“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). — Matthew 1:23 Main Takeaways Emmanuel means God with us in every circumstance—not just the joyful ones. Jesus came to enter real human pain, fear, and loneliness. God’s presence fills the moments that feel the most empty. The name “Emmanuel” is God’s unbreakable promise: You are not alone. We can praise God for being present even when our circumstances remain difficult. Today’s Prayer Heavenly Father, Thank You for Emmanuel, for choosing to come close instead of loving us from a distance. Thank You that when You saw our sorrow, You didn’t just send comfort—you came Yourself. I praise You for being God with us in every moment: the joyful, the ordinary, and the deeply painful. Thank You that Your presence does not depend on my circumstances. You are Emmanuel in the waiting rooms, in the fear, in the grief, and in the seasons that don’t look anything like I hoped. When loneliness whispers that I am alone, remind me that Your very name declares otherwise. Thank You that I never face a single moment without You. Be Emmanuel to my heart today—God with me, right here, right now. In Jesus’ name,Amen. Reflection Scriptures: Isaiah 7:14 John 1:14 Psalm 139:7–10 Hebrews 13:5 Want More?

Hello!This is a good episode of the show and about something we've been thinking about for a while: What is the role of organized religion going forward and will we see a return to the church as the cruelty of politics, technology, and the general malaise of modern life start to overwhelm us? Our guest, Matt Sitman, has thought a ton of about this. He's the co-host of Know Your Enemy and on the editorial board of Dissent. He's written and thought about religion for a long time, including a big story in the New Republic from 2021 about the religious left and a very moving plea from 2017 in Dissent. We talked about a lot: the Catholic church and its right wing converts, the alienation of tech, Tyler's theory about whether AI was the antichrist, the need for community, and the question of how we build a moral framework in a time when everyone's just on their f*****g phones all the time. Enjoy! This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit goodbye.substack.com/subscribe

What if aging wasn't about years but about staying curious and alive? In episode 239 of Joy Found Here, Robin Kencel proves reinvention has no age limit. At 67, she's a top real estate broker, Miss Connecticut Senior America 2025, a competitive dancer, and a spiritual director helping others rediscover faith and purpose.

Known for her warmth, wit, and grounded wisdom, she weaves together decades of professional excellence, spiritual formation, and creative exploration to help others live with greater clarity, intention, and joy. In this conversation, Robin reflects on what it means to stay fully alive at every stage of life—curious, engaged, and open to growth. She shares how her early exposure to aging and mortality shaped her drive to “squeeze every drop of juice out of life,” and how dance, spirituality, and improv acting continue to teach her the art of balance between strength and softness. From her work in real estate to her spiritual direction practice, Robin sees every encounter as an opportunity to notice grace and choose joy over fleeting happiness. Her message is a reminder that purpose doesn't fade with age—it deepens when we keep showing up, keep learning, and keep finding the sacred in the everyday.Connect with Robin Kencel:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInYouTubeFacebookLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

In this tender and hope-filled episode, Justin and Trish sit down with Kara Stout—writer, wife, and new adoptive mom living in Los Angeles—to talk about what it looks like to pursue an untroubled heart in a world that feels anything but calm. Kara shares honestly about walking through an artery dissection, financial struggle, infertility, the loss of both parents (including her mom's cancer journey), and an adoption that fell through—before God brought their daughter Nora into their family. Out of that deep well of suffering and God's faithfulness came her new devotional, The Untroubled Heart: Calming Anxiety and Finding God's Purpose. If you're overwhelmed by the news cycle, carrying quiet grief, or waiting on God to move in a situation that feels stuck, this conversation will remind you that you can bring all of it to Him—and that waiting on God is not passive. In This Episode, We Talk About Why our souls feel so overwhelmed in the age of constant news and notifications—and how to set healthy boundaries around what we consume The tension of “both/and”: holding real grief and real faith at the same time without canceling either one out How Kara watched her mom model joy and trust in Jesus in the middle of suffering—and how that shaped Kara's view of eternity Walking through seven years of infertility, a failed adoption, and the surprising ways God's timing later made sense The beauty and complexity of open adoption and the story of meeting Nora's birth mom on Kara and her husband's wedding anniversary Why waiting on God is not passive—and how to actively seek His heart instead of just His answers The heart behind 30 days of morning and evening devotionals, and why “bookending” your day with God matters How nature, beauty, and creation have become one of the primary ways Kara experiences God's presence Resources Mentioned Kara's Book: The Untroubled Heart: Calming Anxiety and Finding God's Purpose by Kara Stout

In this week's episode of Pastors' Wives Tell All, we chat with our dear friend Amy Gordon, a pastor's wife and mama who opens up about walking through health crises, chronic illness, and the unexpected ways those seasons deepened her family's faith.

Amy's honesty, humor, and hard-earned wisdom offer hope for any pastor's wife—or anyone—navigating uncertainty and leaning on God in the middle of the mess.Get all the info about our next pastors' wives retreat and apply here:https://www.pastorswivestellall.com/attendaretreatTo purchase the BOOK, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/book⁠⁠To shop our MERCH, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/shop⁠⁠Want to support the Pastors' Wives Tell All podcast ministry?

  Psalm 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me.   God is at work…what is HIS purpose for YOUR life? Don't get caught in the comparison game of temporary things, seek the greater good of a bigger God who has designed you for His good works…and walk in them…meaning that you need to move at God's speed, not the hurried pace of this world to enjoy God's purposes being revealed and perfected in your life. Men, don't miss this - your eternal rewards are tied to your eternal investments into God's purposes for your life.   Resource Suggestions The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness by Tim Keller The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs Life Without Lack by Dallas Willard   T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.  

"I was living on the reservation, with my father, drunk, my mother, drunk, and pointing a rifle at me and my siblings." ---------- In this moving episode, we meet Susy—a woman whose life has been marked by deep loss, relentless struggle, and extraordinary moments of grace. Raised amid instability on an Indian reservation and searching for belonging across multiple faith traditions, Susy carried trauma into adulthood. She would lose her husband to cancer and later her daughter, Dakota, whose life was overshadowed by spiritual torment and addiction. Yet through every season, God kept breaking through. From miraculous interventions—including one that stopped her from ending her own life—to the unexpected moment she discovered "Touched by Heaven" on Coast to Coast A.M., Susy began to see that she had been pursued by a faithful God all along. This is a story of a soul relentlessly loved back home. ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

Lindsay was raised in an offshoot of the Way International, then handed over at 12 to cult leader Victor Barnard as one of his “maidens.” For 10 years, she endured grooming, sexual abuse, and spiritual torment — all justified by a twisted interpretation of scripture. At 23, she fled. Thirteen years later, the true gospel broke through. Allie hosts this gut-wrenching, hope-filled story of escaping a cult, confronting evil, and discovering the real Jesus who heals the deepest wounds.
