"If I'm living by faith...I am believing that the God of the universe is at work. He is doing something. And I am not going to set that aside for something that is visible, something that is tangible."— Natalie AbbottToday's episode: Join Dwell Differently cofounders and sisters Natalie Abbott and Vera Schmitz as they discuss what it means to live out our faith. They talk about the real choice we make every day to get up and believe in the unseen work of God in our lives.

You'l be encouraged in your own faith as you listen along. This month's memory verse: "For we live by faith, not by sight." — 2 Corinthians 5:7Want to go even deeper in this month's verse?

Hello! Today, begins the re-launch of my podcast as "Getting Personal with God". I share the process and what you'll like about it. We also start exploring whether you or I have any assumptions about God. (Spoiler alert... we do :)I'm super excited to start this journey with you! I know that God is actually excited about this podcast because He is excited about YOU and wants to know you more intimately. This is one way to help connect you with Him more often.  Of course, God knows everything, and it is His plan for you to be on the earth at this time, but how much we let Him in is up to us.If I didn't sense how much God wants to talk with you, work with you, and walk with you, it could be quite vain of me to dare say God is excited about this podcast. However, He numbers the hairs on our heads, so He is pretty focused on us. He doesn't want us to be lonely, to feel shame or guilt, or to be unable to hear His voice. Plus, He likes us both, and He was the one prompting me to begin.So today starts a fun journey to walk closer with God and get our eyes opened to the wonderful plans He has for us.  Please subscribe so that we can meet again!  LenoraPlease share this podcast with friends and post a review on your podcast app!Book Offer!

Brandon Grant - Eastview Church Hal Donaldson - Convoy of Hope

In this episode, I share why I've been off mainstream media (and feel calmer, clearer, and more engaged), how I stay informed on my terms, and what the Tao Te Ching and Stoicism taught me about hope that does the work. We'll look at the “doom loop,” why outrage isn't engagement, and how to channel energy into real life—voting, volunteering, showing up for people you love—without pretending everything's fine. Along the way, I unpack a Tao passage that once infuriated me (“You can't improve the world”) and how it ultimately freed me: the world is imperfect—and we make it better anyway.

Planned Parenthood President and CEO Alexis McGill Johnson is here and we are fired up! Alexis is leading the fight to protect reproductive freedom at a time when access to healthcare is under attack across the U.S.—and she's breaking it all down for us. JVN sat down with Alexis to talk about the real-world impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, how rural communities are being left behind, and why Planned Parenthood remains an essential lifeline for millions. Plus: what we can all do to stay informed, get involved, and fight back for equitable care. BIO: Alexis McGill Johnson is the President and CEO of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, a leading advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights. She is also the president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), a national nonprofit organization that is the country's most trusted name in sexual and reproductive health.

Alexis has served in both organizations' leadership for more than 15 years: as a former PPFA board chair, former Planned Parenthood Action Fund board member, and former Planned Parenthood Federal PAC chair. In those roles Alexis helped expand Planned Parenthood Action Fund's advocacy power, and since taking leadership has led the organization through challenges — from its exclusion from Title X to the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade.

This is a conversation I recorded on the 3rd of September with Independent TD and Presidential candidate, Catherine Connolly.She lives in the Claddagh in Galway with her husband Brian, and they have two adult children.Her life and work have been shaped by a deep sense of social justice, compassion, and conviction.Before entering politics, Catherine worked as a cleaner, a nurse's aide, a psychologist, a teacher, and a barrister — a truly diverse path that reflects her deep-rooted commitment to public service.She's one of 14 siblings, and in this episode, she speaks about losing her mother at the age of nine — a loss that shaped the rest of her life.We talk about: the power of listening, her love for Gaeilge, her long-standing advocacy for equality, Palestine and the kind of President she hopes to be if elected.It's honest and grounded— very much like Catherine herself.Make sure you're registered to vote — you still have a few days left:Check the RegisterAgus caith do vóta ar an 24ú!If you enjoy Ready to be Real, please consider following, rating, and reviewing the podcast — it really helps!And thank you, as always, for your support.

Set in New York City, Dorothy Sherlock, a prolific ghostwriter, shares her running commentary on the absurdity of the human condition as she navigates her future. Until now, she's spent her life crafting other people's success stories and mourning a failed romance. After a near-fatal encounter with her abusive father and his sudden death, Dorothy resolves to write her own book, blending her expertise in dieting and dessert. A whirlwind trip to a tango festival in Mexico reignites her passion for love through a romantic tryst with a tango-dancing firefighter. Hopeful and happy, Dorothy returns home, only to discover that her agent has stolen the manuscript and sold it to a new client, and her late father has cut her out of his will. As if this weren't enough, Dorothy reconnects with her ex-boyfriend, but after a night of bliss, she finds out that he's living in sin with his cleaning lady. The triple whammy drives her to despair. Can Dorothy's sense of humor and talent save her and help her find success?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Friends, I'm so excited to welcome back a repeat guest to the podcast—Scarlet Hiltibidal! Scarlet first joined me back in 2022 (Episode 43), and today she's here again to talk about her brand-new book releasing this week: Hopeful-ish: Sadness, Weariness, Donkey Attacks, More Sadness, and Other Stuff You Need the Gospel For.So much has happened in Scarlet's life since the last time we talked—moves, family changes, heartbreaking loss, and even unexpected joy. In this conversation, Scarlet shares honestly about walking through tragedy, wrestling with hopelessness, and clinging to the promises of God when life feels heavy. She talks about what it means to be “pressed but not crushed” (2 Corinthians 4:8–9), why Romans 15:13 has anchored her heart, and how the Lord shows up even when we feel distracted or weak.We even dive into the story behind the donkey attack (yes, really!) and how something so wild points us back to the truth that staying close to Jesus is the only way to experience peace and joy in this world.If you've been feeling weary, sad, or just weighed down by the last few years—you're not alone. Scarlet's story will remind you that God is faithful, His presence is real, and hope is a gift that comes from Him.

As our good friend Hopeful said, "chastity is worn on your penis, but it's in your head". Locking up his cock in chastity is a fascinating kink that prevents him that deprives him of something he's been free to touch and play with his entire life. It's not an undertaking you or your partner should take lightly, it's fun, but can also have consequences, both good and bad. In this episode the CML panel chats about those things. This is not about what a chastity cage is and how it works checkout some of our other episodes for that.

I'm excited for this week's BEHIND THE LENS, thanks to a director whom I adore and have been chatting with for multiple decades, RENNY HARLIN, who goes in-depth with me for THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 2, and writer/director MATTHEW BISSONNETTE, who brings us a film I immediately connected with, DEATH OF A LADIES' MAN starring Gabriel Byrne. THE STRANGERS began back in 2008 thanks to w/d Bryan Bertino, who treated us to the tale of James Hoyt and Kristen McKay, who visit an isolated vacation home to enjoy some time together. Hopeful bliss turned into terror making their stay a nightmare. In 2018, director Johannes Roberts, with a script by Bryan Bertino and Ben Ketai, rebooted the franchise with THE STRANGERS: PREY AT NIGHT starring Bailee Madison, Lewis Pullman, and Christina Hendricks. Now in 2025, we have the chilling next chapter of THE STRANGERS franchise with THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 2. Directed by Renny Harlin and written by Alan R. Cohen & Alan Freedland, Madelaine Petsch returns as Maya, and joining her are, among others, Gabriel Basso, Ema Horvath, Richard Brake, and Pedro Leandro. Now let's turn to DEATH OF A LADIES' MAN with writer/director MATTHEW BISSONNETTE. Described as a "lyrical dramedy", DEATH OF A LADIES' MAN is poetic and emotionally charged, infused with the music and spirit of Leonard Cohen, tackling multiple themes that evoke heartbreak, absurdity, and hope. Gabriel Byrne stars as the hard-drinking, twice-divorced professor Samuel O'Shea whose life seems to be going into the toilet. First, he starts seeing things – Frankenstein at the bar, strangers breaking into Leonard Cohen songs, a woman with a tiger's head and face, and conversations with his long-dead father, Ben O'Shea. He chalks it up to stress. But a terminal brain tumor diagnosis sends him reeling into a surreal, darkly funny odyssey through memory, regret, and an unexpected romance in Ireland. Retreating to his family's remote Irish cottage, Samuel tries to write the novel he's always avoided—and instead begins rewriting his own story. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

You have value. In fact, when God created humanity, the dignity of each human life was part of the entire plan. Even though sin entered the story and each of us have strayed from our perfect and loving God, there is hope for redemption. Evil, shame, and brokenness are part of this life, but they don't get the last word. God has not given up on us or this world, and the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus are clear evidence that we are still loved and valued. This message kicks off an epic new series, Peak Experiences. In this series we will explore the narrative of Scripture through the encounters people have with God, often on mountains or hilltops. Sometimes these are exciting, sometimes they're heavy and shocking, but every time people are changed. Speaker: Greg Holder
