Key Takeaways:Centering fundraising on genuine care, honesty, and alignment creates trust and long-term support rather than transactional gains. Actions from authentic relationships feel meaningful, while actions solely for money feel manipulative.Loving donor relationships are honest, authentic, and aligned. They are not transactional or performative, and both the donor and organization benefit from shared values and mutual yeses.Applying love languages in fundraising—words of affirmation, quality time, acts of service, meaningful gifts, and shared experiences—builds connection without pressure or manipulation. Each interaction should reflect respect, care, and intention.Listening, personalization, and alignment are critical. Engaging only with donors who resonate with the organization's mission fosters sustainable giving, while letting go of misaligned relationships protects energy, trust, and long-term impact. “If we are doing things for our donors because we genuinely love and care about them… that's a loving relationship.” “Love languages don't replace integrity. They express integrity.” “Healthy donor relationships don't come from saying the right thing. They come from being in the right relationship.”- Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

In this episode, Dr. Gary Chapman joins Sissy Goff and David Thomas to explore what kids need most right now: feeling deeply and consistently loved. Drawing from decades of counseling families and his work with the Five Love Languages, Dr. Chapman explains how children uniquely receive love, how parents can identify a child's primary love language, and why behavior is often a signal that a child's “love tank” is running low. The conversation offers practical, hope-filled guidance for adapting love languages as kids grow, navigating different personalities within one family, and building daily rhythms—like shared meals and one-on-one time—that foster connection, resilience, and lasting emotional security.

As Venture Church steps into 2026, Pastor Brandon shares the very first message of the year across all campuses, introducing what we're calling Venture United — a moment for our entire church family to speak the same language and move in the same direction together. Using 1 John 3:18 as the theme verse for the year, Pastor Brandon casts vision for 2026 as the Year of Radical Service. This message challenges us to move beyond words and intentions and live out our faith through action, love, and ownership of the church we call home. Through personal stories, Scripture, and practical examples, Pastor Brandon walks through why serving matters, how it reflects our love for Jesus, and why a healthy church is built on people who take responsibility for the mission together. This message sets the tone for the year ahead and invites every person at Venture to step into a deeper level of commitment, service, and love. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to Venture Church across all campuses00:25 – Introducing Venture United00:50 – Health update and gratitude for prayer01:40 – Theme verse for 2026: 1 John 3:1802:10 – Opening prayer02:30 – The Five Love Languages illustration04:10 – Acts of service vs gifts story04:52 – Introducing the Year of Radical Service05:27 – 1 Peter 4:10–11 and serving to God's glory06:02 – Loving through actions, not just words07:03 – Vision for Venture to be known for radical service07:54 – Celebrating generosity and giving milestones09:10 – Invitation to begin giving consistently09:44 – Vision for generosity AND service10:15 – Serving as a gift of your time11:15 – God provides strength when we serve11:49 – Why giving alone isn't enough13:27 – Serving as an act of love14:51 – Serving as worship, even behind the scenes16:20 – Redefining what a “break” from serving means17:33 – Serving people as serving Jesus19:05 – The power of hospitality and first impressions21:12 – Story of a life changed through serving23:25 – Serving even after moving away24:14 – Serving as ownership25:58 – Why the church depends on volunteers26:37 – Ownership illustrated through everyday life29:07 – What owners do when something needs fixing30:42 – 2026: Venture's Year of Radical Service31:10 – Closing encouragement and vision for the year ahead
What up, Beasts. Welcome back to the show! In this episode, I'm joined again by Alysia Lyons for a conversation that completely flips the script on self-care by taking the Five Love Languages and turning them inward. We talk about how most of us were taught to show love to others, but never learned how to give that same love to ourselves, and how that disconnect fuels guilt, burnout, and relentless self-criticism. Alysia breaks down how applying your personal love language to yourself can become a powerful, practical way to build self-trust, soften negative self-talk, and actually feel cared for without adding more to your to-do list. We dig into parenting, guilt, inner child work, why self-love is a practice and not a switch you flip, and how real support accelerates healing. This one is honest, funny, and deeply grounding, especially if you've ever felt like you're doing everything for everyone else while running on empty.As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: For nearly a decade, she has helped clients move through internal blocks and create lasting change with clarity, confidence, and self-trust.

You don't need to hit home runs in life or relationships—just learn how to show up, speak their language, and say thank you when it counts. Show Notes: In this reflective Shark Theory episode, Baylor Barbee turns an unexpected listener message into a deeper look at consistency, connection, and communication. Not every day—or podcast—is a home run, and that's the point. Baylor shares why small, consistent base hits build real progress in life and relationships. He also dives into lessons from The Five Love Languages, exploring how understanding how others receive appreciation can transform both personal and professional relationships. And sometimes, growth is as simple as learning how to genuinely accept a compliment without deflecting it. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why consistency matters more than perfection The difference between swinging for home runs and stacking base hits How love languages shape how we give and receive appreciation Why asking "How do you receive love or gratitude?" changes relationships The power of simply saying "thank you" and meaning it Featured Quote: "You don't have to hit home runs every day. Just keep showing up, making base hits, and learning how to speak the language of the people who matter most."

In this episode, I discuss why the psychological concept of The Five Love Languages is fundamentally flawed.
Send us a textThe Five Love LanguagesLove comes in many languages: touch, time, gifts, service, and affirmation. Each one points us to the way God loves us and how we are called to love others in return. Over the next five weeks, we'll explore stories of Jesus meeting people in their deepest need and showing love in ways that still speak today. Come discover how God's love is personal, powerful, and present in your life. TimeWe all long for someone to slow down, look us in the eye, and truly listen. In this message, Pastor Steve explores Jesus' encounter with the woman at the well in John 4. Jesus crossed barriers, set aside distractions, and gave her His full attention. That quality time not only made her feel seen but also transformed her life. Jesus makes time for you in the same way. He is never too busy or distracted to be present with you. When you spend time with Him and then give that same gift of presence to others, you are saying, “You matter.” Discover how making time can be an act of love that changes lives.

Gary Chapman is the author of The Five Love Languages, a book first published in 1992 that outlines how people express and experience love. He argues that romantic miscommunications come about due to people expressing love to one another using different “languages”, and therefore struggle to understand one another. But, if you understand your own love language, you can ask for what you need and be in tune to the needs of your partner. According to Chapman, the different ways people can communicate their love is through; acts of service, gift-giving, physical touch, quality time, and words of affirmation. What are the 5 languages? Is there any science behind love languages? How does knowing the love languages help relationships? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Episode 2663: Evan Marc Katz explores the emotional and practical dilemma faced by women dating men who openly reject the idea of marriage. Drawing from personal coaching experiences, he challenges the notion of waiting for someone to change and empowers women to take control of their long-term relationship goals before more time is lost. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/marriage/how-long-should-you-stay-with-a-boyfriend-who-does-not-believe-in-marriage Quotes to ponder: "If marriage is important to you, then being with a man who doesn't believe in it is a non-starter." "You're allowed to want what you want. You're just not allowed to expect someone else to provide it if they don't want the same thing." "You can't spend your life hoping that someone else changes; you can only control your own actions."
