Podcasts about fresh hope

In this powerful episode, J.M.D. Myers shares her personal journey with OCD — a journey that for years was misread as a spiritual problem. Growing up in a devout Christian family in Massachusetts, JDM was a child who took her faith seriously. But what looked to others like legalism or being overly judgmental was actually undiagnosed OCD. For years she carried the weight of that misidentification, feeling like something was fundamentally wrong with her spiritually — and the guilt that came with it. It wasn't until much later in life that she finally received a proper diagnosis of OCD. That diagnosis changed everything. Her story is a reminder that what the church sometimes labels as a "spiritual issue" may in fact be a mental health condition — and that getting the right language for what you're experiencing can be profoundly healing. J.M.D Myers loves to work with theatre, where she helps people connect with God through dialogue rather than lecture. You can learn more about her work in theatre at jesterandbard.com. She tells her full story in her book But What If I'm the 99th?, a biblically grounded and refreshingly honest companion for anyone who has ever wondered what their place is in God's story — especially those who don't see themselves as the rebel or the prodigal, but still have deep questions about identity, belonging, and whether God truly delights in them. Fresh Hope for Mental Health exists to bring hope to those living with mental health challeges and to the people who love them.

In this episode of the Fresh Hope for Mental Health Podcast, Pastor Brad interviews Adam Flesner about his powerful story documented in his book, Still Here: A Bipolar Survival Manual. Adam shares his journey with bipolar disorder, beginning in 2011 while he was in college. At first, doctors believed he was struggling with depression and prescribed an antidepressant, which triggered his first manic episode and eventually led to a bipolar diagnosis. Adam openly discusses the difficult years that followed as he searched for the right medication and eventually found stability. However, after graduating from college, he decided to stop taking his medication, which led to poor decisions, addiction to performance-enhancing substances and cannabis, and an attempt to self-medicate his condition in unhealthy ways. During a particularly difficult season that included separation from his wife and a severe mixed episode, Adam experienced a suicide attempt. Thankfully, he was stabilized again using the same medication that had helped him previously, which also allowed him to break free from addiction and begin rebuilding his life. Today, Adam is thriving, remarried, and pursuing a new calling in theology. His story is honest, hopeful, and deeply encouraging for anyone navigating bipolar disorder, addiction, setbacks, or the long road toward healing and stability.

After years of negotiations, the Turkish military may finally be close to acquiring American F-35 fighter jets. United States President Donald Trump has suggested a deal could be near, despite Israel warning that the sale would threaten its security amidst rising tensions with Turkey. “We're thinking about it very seriously,” Trump said when asked by a reporter about the sale of F-35 fighter jets to Turkey during a visit this week by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The sale has been blocked for years due to Turkey's purchase of the Russian S-400 missile system. A recent Bloomberg report suggested Ankara may be prepared to return the missiles, though Turkish officials have denied this. Political commentator Asli Aydintasbas, a fellow at the Brookings Institution, says that the strengthening relationship between Trump and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan means both sides are working to resolve the impasse. “He [Trump] himself is working with Turkey through his very effective ambassador, Tom Barrack, to find a solution,” said Aydintasbas. “There will be stiff opposition from the Greek lobby, Israelis and other regional players. But we've seen Trump skirt such opposition when it came to the Saudi Arabia F-35 sale.” Military edge Israeli security experts warn that Turkey's acquisition of F-35 jets poses a greater security risk to Israel than the Saudi deal due to the Turkish military's expertise, which threatens to challenge Israel's technological advantage. Currently, Israel maintains a significant edge as the Turkish air force operates decade-old jets, a factor that is increasingly important amid rising regional tensions. “There was definitely a concern in the spring that there might be a confrontation in the skies of Syria between Israel and Turkey,” said Gallia Lindenstrauss of the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv. Syria in crossfire as Turkish-Israeli rivalry heats up over Assad's successors She stresses the risk of confrontation has significantly diminished thanks to “de-confliction talks”, brokered by Azerbaijan. A Syria “hotline” now exists between Israel and Turkey to prevent what Lindenstrauss describes as “accidents between the Israeli Air Force and the Turkish Air Force”. Yet the need for such measures underscores how strained ties are. “The fact that it exists, of course, does point to the fact that things are not necessarily calm,” Lindenstrauss acknowledged. Provocative alliances Israel's conflict in Gaza has heightened tensions with Turkey. On New Year's Day, hundreds of thousands protested in Istanbul in support of Palestinians. Tensions escalated further as Israel increased military cooperation last month with Greece and Cyprus. Both Greece and Cyprus have unresolved territorial disputes with Turkey in the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas. “Israelis are provoking especially Greeks and Greek Cypriots,” said Murat Aslan of Seta, a Turkish pro-government think tank. “The Israeli pilots are educating and training Greek pilots. They are operating [drones] across the Aegean Sea. And they sold many complex missile systems. So that means Israelis are provoking Greece just to challenge Turkey here in the Aegean Sea.” In his New Year's address, Erdogan said he was closely monitoring what he describes as threats and provocations against Turkey and Turkish Cypriots. Aslan predicts Ankara will not remain passive. “If there is a pattern in the west of Turkey that Greeks and Israelis are cooperating, for the sake of Turkish security interests, for sure there will be a reaction,” he warned. Israel talks defence with Greece and Cyprus, as Turkey issues Netanyahu warrant Greece, which is also acquiring the F-35, has joined Israel in opposing Turkey's purchase of the jet, warning it would alter the balance of power. While Trump has expressed support for the Turkish sale, analyst Aydintasbas notes the US president is learning the limitations of his power when it comes to Israel. “Trump is going through what a lot of US presidents have experienced: frustration, and a question – ‘wait a minute, who's the superpower here?'” she said. “Because of the power dynamic in the US-Israeli relationship, it sometimes does point to a situation in which Israelis, though the weaker side technically, end up having the upper hand because of their enormous influence in the public space.” Aydintasbas predicts that, despite Trump's friendship with and admiration for Erdogan, the US president will be unwilling to pay the political price of securing the Turkish jet sale. “This is an issue on which Trump is not willing to fight the US Congress... and essentially ignore the US law,” she said. For the self-described master dealmaker, it may prove a deal too far.

Fresh Hope for Menendez Brothers as DA Reviews Case The Los Angeles County District Attorney, Nathan Hochman, met with relatives of Erik and Lyle Menendez as part of an ongoing review of their high-profile case. While no decision has been made, the family and advocates for the brothers are hopeful for progress toward their release. “When I came into office, I committed to reviewing all the facts of this case,” Hochman said. He explained that the review includes thousands of pages of prison records, trial transcripts, and other legal documents. Additionally, Hochman is consulting prosecutors and defense attorneys from the case's original trials. Over 20 relatives of the Menendez brothers attended the meeting with Hochman, which he described as “very productive” and “an informal, off-the-record discussion.” According to Hochman, the family shared their perspectives and hopes for the brothers' release. Cousin Anamaria Baralt spoke briefly to reporters after the meeting, expressing gratitude for Hochman's time. “This 35-year process has been incredibly traumatizing for us, as I'm sure you can all imagine,” she said. Baralt reiterated the family's call for immediate release, stating that going before a parole board would “only serve to re-traumatize us.” The Menendez brothers were convicted in 1996 for the murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home in 1989. While their defense argued the brothers acted in self-defense after years of sexual abuse by their father, prosecutors contended they were motivated by financial gain. Lyle and Erik, aged 21 and 18 at the time of the crime, were sentenced to two consecutive life terms without parole. In October, former District Attorney George Gascón recommended the brothers' sentences be adjusted from life without parole to 50 years to life, which could allow for parole eligibility. Gascón cited their rehabilitation efforts and the role of trauma in the crime. However, Hochman, who succeeded Gascón, is still reviewing the case and has not endorsed his predecessor's recommendation. Beyond resentencing, the Menendez brothers have filed a habeas corpus petition to introduce new evidence and requested clemency from California Governor Gavin Newsom. Newsom stated he would defer to Hochman's review before making any clemency decisions. The case has also faced legal complications. An attorney for the brothers recently petitioned to move the case to the California Attorney General's Office, citing a conflict of interest involving Hochman's recent appointee, Kathleen Cady. Cady previously represented a family member advocating against the brothers' release. Hochman assured the public that Cady is “walled off from the Menendez case.” The Menendez brothers are scheduled to appear in court later this month for a hearing in their resentencing case. For now, their fate remains uncertain as Hochman's office continues its thorough review. #MenendezBrothers #JusticeReview #NathanHochman #FamilyTrauma #Resentencing #PrisonRehabilitation #ClemencyHope Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

He explained that the review includes thousands of pages of prison records, trial transcripts, and other legal documents. Additionally, Hochman is consulting prosecutors and defense attorneys from the case's original trials. Over 20 relatives of the Menendez brothers attended the meeting with Hochman, which he described as “very productive” and “an informal, off-the-record discussion.” According to Hochman, the family shared their perspectives and hopes for the brothers' release. Cousin Anamaria Baralt spoke briefly to reporters after the meeting, expressing gratitude for Hochman's time. “This 35-year process has been incredibly traumatizing for us, as I'm sure you can all imagine,” she said. Baralt reiterated the family's call for immediate release, stating that going before a parole board would “only serve to re-traumatize us.” The Menendez brothers were convicted in 1996 for the murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home in 1989. While their defense argued the brothers acted in self-defense after years of sexual abuse by their father, prosecutors contended they were motivated by financial gain. Lyle and Erik, aged 21 and 18 at the time of the crime, were sentenced to two consecutive life terms without parole. In October, former District Attorney George Gascón recommended the brothers' sentences be adjusted from life without parole to 50 years to life, which could allow for parole eligibility. Gascón cited their rehabilitation efforts and the role of trauma in the crime. However, Hochman, who succeeded Gascón, is still reviewing the case and has not endorsed his predecessor's recommendation. Beyond resentencing, the Menendez brothers have filed a habeas corpus petition to introduce new evidence and requested clemency from California Governor Gavin Newsom. Newsom stated he would defer to Hochman's review before making any clemency decisions. The case has also faced legal complications. An attorney for the brothers recently petitioned to move the case to the California Attorney General's Office, citing a conflict of interest involving Hochman's recent appointee, Kathleen Cady. Cady previously represented a family member advocating against the brothers' release. Hochman assured the public that Cady is “walled off from the Menendez case.” The Menendez brothers are scheduled to appear in court later this month for a hearing in their resentencing case. For now, their fate remains uncertain as Hochman's office continues its thorough review. #MenendezBrothers #JusticeReview #NathanHochman #FamilyTrauma #Resentencing #PrisonRehabilitation #ClemencyHope Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

How is it that an ancient story could give us hope for today?
