Podcasts about finding grace

Welcome to Episode 236, where we are both back at Book Cougars HQ and happy to be sitting across the table from one another again. We did some Biblio Adventuring since the last episode! Emily joined the Pride celebration in Middletown, CT which kicked off with Drag Storytime at Wesleyan RJ Julia Bookstore. She also had a lovely visit to Big Red Books in Nyack, NY. Chris was back in the Midwest where she visited the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library, Museum, and Boyhood Home in Abilene, Kansas before heading to Red Cloud, Nebraska for the 70th Annual Willa Cather Spring Conference. We managed to read a few books between/during our adventures (love those audiobooks on road trips!): FINDING GRACE by Loretta Rothschild (release date 7/8/2025) THE PROFESSOR'S HOUSE by Willa Cather THE BOOKSTORE FAMILY by Alice Hoffman 
STILL WRITING by Dani Shapiro THE EMPEROR OF GLADNESS by Ocean Vuong THE GOOD HOUSE by Tananarive Due, our second quarter readalong pick Thanks to the sponsors of this episode: Deb Miller, author of FORGET THE FAIRY TALE AND FIND YOUR HAPPINESS, and Jen Michalski, author of ALL THIS CAN BE TRUE. Continuing our year of reading Ghost Stories, we are excited to announce the third quarter readalong pick. Because we chose a shorter novel this time, we decided to include the story that inspired it as a companion read for Q3: “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The novel that is the official pick is another one with the word “House” in the title. You'll have to listen to find out or peek at the show notes. As always, thank you so much for listening and we wish you lots of Happy Reading! https://www.bookcougars.com/blog-1/2025/episode236

Let your eyes be on the field that they are reaping, and go after them. Have I not charged the young men not to touch you? And when you are thirsty, go to the vessels and drink what the young men have drawn.” Then she fell on her face, bowing to the ground, and said to him, “Why have I found favor in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, since I am a foreigner?” But Boaz answered her, “All that you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband has been fully told to me, and how you left your father and mother and your native land and came to a people that you did not know before.”

What if resurrection wasn't a one-time event, but a continual journey—messy, real, and full of grace? In this final sermon on the Nicene Creed, Ericka Graham reflects on interdependence, the Holy Spirit, and the kind of strength that only comes through struggle.

In our series of Job the curtain is pulled back on the story and we see behind the scenes. No where in the Bible do we get an opportunity like this! In this wisdom literature we see where Satan stands before God. God speaks to the accuser and says "Have you considered my servant Job?" Could that be said about you in the heavenly courts? If it is said about you, are you prepared for what could come next in your life? Finding Grace in Grief Job loses all his worldly blessings, but he knows his redeemer still lives!Grab your bible and lets study together!

This episode is a quiet one. A tender one.Mother's Day can bring warmth and joy for some—but for many, it also brings up pain. Unspoken grief. Emptiness. And maybe even guilt for feeling that way.Whether you've lost a child, a parent, or the version of yourself you thought would be celebrated. I want to offer you space today.So today, the day after Mother's Day, I want to speak into the space that many of us occupy. That quiet, tender space And that's what we'll sit with today. With grief. With honesty. With grace. With compassion. Connect with Host Brenda Staat-Tomlinson:

When life deals you an unexpected blow, do you crumble or transform? For Briana Rice, a devastating collision with a semi-truck in 2021 didn't end her story, it began a powerful new chapter. Briana takes us through her remarkable journey from scientist and world traveler to traumatic brain injury survivor and advocate. With raw honesty, she shares how she initially thought her life was over after suffering brain and spinal injuries, only to discover that these challenges would become the catalyst for her greatest transformation. Through intensive rehabilitation, Brianna not only regained her strength but also found her voice as an advocate for brain injury awareness.Her path to healing led her to compete in and win the Woman of Achievement pageant with her platform "Grace for Your Journey", a message that resonates deeply with anyone facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles. As Brianna explains, "Sometimes you have to crumble to put the pieces back together, to build something new and more beautiful." This philosophy anchors her work as an author in the anthology "Women We Are Stronger Together" and as the director of the Riverside Chapter for the Global Society of Female Entrepreneurs, where she creates spaces for women to support rather than compete with one another.Perhaps most touching is Brianna's dedication to honoring her friend Justin Bowman, a fellow brain injury survivor who passed away in 2024. Through her Blackberry Merlot wine festival and charitable foundation, she continues to raise funds for those who need treatment but cannot afford it. Brianna's story reminds us that our darkest moments often contain the seeds of our greatest purpose, and that with grace, resilience, and community support, we can not only survive our traumas but use them to create meaningful change in the world.Ready to find grace in your own journey? Connect with Briana through her website and discover how your challenges might become your greatest source of power and purpose.

Send us a textWhen Savannah Woodward met her firefighter husband nine years ago, she never imagined how deeply his profession would shape their family life. From navigating 48-hour shifts to explaining daddy's absence to their curious 4-year-old son, the challenges of a first responder family require constant adaptation and unwavering faith.Savannah's journey took an unexpected turn when they relocated to West Texas with their one-year-old son. "I was so against moving here," she admits, fearing the loss of her entire support system. Yet this leap into the unknown transformed their lives completely. "I attribute one of our greatest successes as a family to moving out here," she shares, highlighting how the community's entrepreneurial spirit and accessibility created opportunities they never would have found in their hometown.Throughout our conversation, Savannah candidly discusses her struggle with postpartum depression, the resentment she initially felt toward her husband's absences, and the evolution of her priorities from career advancement to finding balance. "I'm motivated by making sure I'm not in burnout constantly anymore," she explains, reflecting on her journey toward intentional self-care and setting boundaries between work and home life.Perhaps most powerful is Savannah's perspective on the values her son gains from being raised in a first responder family. From compassion and selflessness to gratitude and consideration for others, these lessons provide a silver lining to the missed birthdays and rearranged holidays. "He admires Justin so much," she says of her son's relationship with his father, "and Justin is teaching him incredible values he wouldn't have gotten if he wasn't in a first responder family."For anyone navigating the complexities of parenthood while supporting a partner with demanding responsibilities, Savannah offers a simple yet profound message: "Give grace. We're all just trying to figure it out." Her story reminds us that behind every hero in uniform stands a family making countless sacrifices, finding strength through faith, and building their village wherever life takes them.Support the show Standing In Your Truth Podcast with Yanni Thomas https://www.facebook.com/share/1Kcug7eVXX/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Zach Leary is a teacher, speaker, writer, and spiritual explorer with one of the most iconic legacies in psychedelic history—being the son of Timothy Leary. But our conversation goes far beyond lineage.Zach and I dive into his personal story of addiction, homelessness, and recovery, as well as the spiritual awakening that helped him reframe his life through the teachings of Ram Dass and his own lived experience with psychedelics.We examine the deeper meaning of surrender, how psychedelics intersect with the 12-Step path, and the modern resurgence of mind-altering medicine as both a healing tool and cultural movement. From DMT journeys to divine amends, this episode is a vulnerable exploration of what it means to truly change.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational purposes only and not intended for diagnosing or treating illnesses.

There's a moment in every practitioner's life when they start thinking less about where they're going and more about what they're leaving behind. What does it mean to practice for decades, to see students turn into colleagues, and to watch the medicine evolve through your hands? The arc of a career in acupuncture isn't just about technique—it's connection and contribution as well.In this conversation with Whitfield Reeves, we explore his 40+ years in practice, from his early days training in California to his work in orthopedic and sports acupuncture. He shares his reflections on what it means to transition from practitioner to mentor, the conundrum of monetizing wisdom, and how in the end— the best work finds you.Listen into this discussion as we talk about the weight of responsibility in clinical work, the role of legacy in acupuncture, how the empirical method shapes our medicine, and the evolving landscape of mentorship in Chinese medicine.

Vic Verchereau welcomes Dara Mayhoe, who is an Entrepreneur, Motivational Speaker & Author. Dara Mayhoe is a Lansing entrepreneur, an employer and an author with an inspiring story. Her book, “A Wonderful Change,” shares her life that started in poverty and real struggle. Writing the book she hoped would bring redemption and healing, but it has proven to be a story to inspire others and challenge the true vision of bringing hope to those who have struggled in their own life. Mayhoe says, “After overcoming so much adversity in my life, I knew I had to share how God turned my life around. I was also encouraged to write a book by people who were always inspired by my testimony. Every time I would tell my life story people would always say, 'Oh, my goodness, you need to write a book!'"

Have you ever whispered… "If only I had..." "Why didn't I...?" Friend, you're not alone. Guilt and regret are silent companions in the journey of child loss. But today, I want to help you release what you were never meant to carry. This is an episode you may want to take notes on. We're going deep—and I'm sharing 9 powerful truths that will bring light into the heavy places of your heart. ✨ Inside This Episode: ➤

Established In The Faith · Finding Grace To help In Time Of Need Hebrews 4:14-16 (KJV) 14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Is a clean house a spiritual obligation? In this liberating conversation, Dana K. White, author of the brand new book, "Jesus Doesn't Care About Your Messy House," challenges the shame and spiritual baggage many attach to home management. This book is for you, if no matter how competent you feel in other parts of your life, you still feel overwhelmed and defeated by your messy home. While it's true that keeping a clean and organized living space can contribute to a sense of peace and well-being, it should never be equated with your worth, moral standing, or what Jesus thinks about you.With her characteristic honesty and practical wisdom, Dana reveals how our homes often become measuring sticks for our spiritual worth—and why this connection is both damaging and unbiblical. Drawing on her own journey from drowning in clutter to finding sustainable systems, Dana shares insights particularly helpful for those with creative personalities who may get scattered as well as analytical, information-gathering tendencies similar to Enneagram Type 5 traits. Discover why "how you're made" is different from "just the way you are," how to create systems that work with your natural tendencies rather than against them, and why "technically helping" differs from "actually helping" your household. This conversation offers both practical home management strategies and spiritual freedom for anyone who has ever felt judged—by others or themselves—for the state of their home.

Hey friends, welcome back to Purpose Beyond Motherhood! We're so glad you're here for an honest conversation about grief, lament, and how God meets us in our hardest moments.Today, we sit down with our friend, Clayr Simnacher, who shares her journey through loss, sorrow, and the practice of lament. Clayr, a counseling psychology professor, opens up about compound grief and navigating uncertainty. Even as a counselor, she has found herself at times asking the same raw question so many of us have: God, do you see me?Clayr walks us through the biblical practice of lament—how it allows us to bring our deepest pain before God, trusting that He is near even when we don't see the end of the story. She reminds us that grief isn't weakness or punishment, but an invitation to draw closer to Him.One quick note: Clayr references Psalm 13 but actually quotes from Psalm 22— This moment is a powerful reminder that even when we feel abandoned, we can bring our raw emotions before God—just as David did.We pray this episode meets you where you are. If you're walking through grief, infertility, or loss, know this—you are not alone, and your pain is not unseen.Episode Highlights: The pit of grief. The concept of Holy lament.You are not alone.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Purpose Beyond Motherhood and Clayr:Twelve 12 Ministries WebsiteIG Handle: @twelve12ministriesFacebook: @twelve12ministriesEmail: info@twelve12ministries.org Visit the Twelve 12 Ministries ShopConnect with Clayr: Clayr.simnacher@bhcarroll.edu Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy by Mark VroegopThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

What happens when you check your bank account and wonder where all the money went? Join me, Stephen Feith, on a journey through life's losses as we explore not just financial dilemmas but the deeper losses we all face. From lost pets to missing people, I reflect on how these universal experiences mirror God's longing for those who are far from him. Together, we traverse the Gospel of Luke, particularly the poignant teachings in chapter 15, where Jesus reshapes our understanding of purpose. We revisit the timeless parable of the prodigal son, unraveling its rich themes of grace, forgiveness, and restoration, and how they challenge our perceptions of divine love and human relationships.Reflect upon my own path in founding Madison Church, where the humble beginnings included working at a Hy-Vee grocery store in Springfield, Missouri. As Megan and I journeyed across the Midwest sharing our dream of a new church community, we met both skeptics and supporters. Those supporters have been pivotal in our growth over the last decade. Embrace the call to be a community that mirrors heaven's joy, extending grace and inclusivity to everyone, whether they're returning home or arriving for the first time. Let's build a church that actively seeks and celebrates those seeking belonging, just as the father did with his returning son.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, consider subscribing to Madison Church on your favorite podcast platform.

*This episode mentions violence and may be triggering for some listeners.* This week, we're joined by Demi-Leigh Tebow, a South African native, former Miss Universe, and wife of NFL superstar Tim Tebow. Demi-Leigh is a passionate advocate for individuals with special needs and disabilities. She discusses how her faith helped her overcome personal challenges, including a life-altering carjacking, and how it now fuels her mission to empower women through her Unbreakable Women's Workshop. Later in the episode, we'll hear from Kendall Vanderslice, a baker, writer, and teacher, who takes us on a profound dive into the practice of bread making. Kendall shares how she discovered baking as her calling, explores the rich symbolism of food in scripture, and reveals how the kitchen can become a sacred place for encountering God.   Links, Products, and Resources Mentioned: Jesus Calling Podcast Jesus Calling Jesus Always Jesus Listens Past interview: Molly Stillman Upcoming interview: Alyssa Bethke Jesus Calling commemorative edition  Jesus Calling app   Demi-Leigh Tebow Tim Tebow Unbreakable Conference A Crown That Lasts cerebellar agenesis The Tim Tebow Foundation Night to Shine Miss Universe human trafficking 1 Corinthians 9:25 NIV www.demitebow.com   Kendall Vanderslice Genesis 1 and 2 NIV Genesis 3 NIV www.kendallvanderslice.com Bake & Pray: Liturgies & Recipes for Baking Bread as a Spiritual Practice Interview Quotes: “I eventually realized that I had a choice to make. I could choose to question God for the rest of my life, or I could choose to trust Him for the rest of my life. I knew choosing to trust Him also meant making peace with knowing that I was not going to have all of the answers, and that that was going to be okay.” - Demi-Leigh Tebow “I don't like being interrupted. I don't like being taken off the course of my day. I don't like stopping to help somebody else in need. Right? That's uncomfortable. Well, I think that there can be so much blessing in obedience in those moments where we are willing to be interrupted for the sake of somebody else.” - Demi-Leigh Tebow  “I had to learn that if I truly wanted to have real confidence in my identity, I had to root my confidence in something other than myself. Something that is fixed. Something that is never changing. Something that is always trustworthy and something that is bigger than myself.” - Demi-Leigh Tebow  “My diamond and pearl crown did not last. But do you know what will last? The impact that I get to have with that crown, living out my God-given purpose, maybe using that crown as a vessel.” - Demi-Leigh Tebow “I am thankful for my plans that have been ruined. I am thankful for the wrenches that have been thrown in my plans. Because His plans have been better and bigger and more perfect for me every single time.” - Demi-Leigh Tebow  “It is such a joy to get to share what I have learned through the process of baking with others so that they can meet God in the kitchen with dough between their fingers.” - Kendall Vanderslice “The simplicity of baking itself is, I think, a really holy calling.” - Kendall Vanderslice  “We have this picture of death and resurrection all woven into the process of baking bread. I think it is no small matter that Jesus then chose bread as the central element of the communion table.” - Kendall Vanderslice “We are invited to rest, not as a reward for what we've gotten done, but as a means of delighting in God's creation and being reminded that we were created to take care of and delight in this delicious and beautiful world.” - Kendall Vanderslice  ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
