Today, I sat down with my son to talk about his testimony. We talk about How porn shows up today (not just “hardcore,” but the stuff that finds you through social media) and how porn impacts relationships, faith, and the way you see people. If you’re struggling, you’re not alone and you’re not beyond help. My hope is this episode gives you clarity, courage, and a next step. *Get a MASTERS IN APOLOGETICS or SCIENCE AND RELIGION at BIOLA (https://bit.ly/3LdNqKf) *USE Discount Code [smdcertdisc] for 25% off the BIOLA APOLOGETICS CERTIFICATE program (https://bit.ly/3AzfPFM) *See our fully online UNDERGRAD DEGREE in Bible, Theology, and Apologetics: (https://bit.ly/448STKK) FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: https://x.com/Sean_McDowell TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sean_mcdowell?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seanmcdowell/ Website: https://seanmcdowell.org Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Pastor Brian wrapped up the Becoming a 3C Disciple series by presenting a framework for spiritual growth built around three key areas. The three C's include commitment to Jesus (knowing Him personally and being transformed by His lordship), connection to Jesus' followers (building intentional relationships within the church community), and contribution to Jesus' mission (serving as both servant and ambassador). The sermon featured powerful testimonies from Rich and Lynndale Hardeman, who shared their journey from salvation through pastoral ministry; Aaron and Elizabeth McWilliams, who demonstrated how connecting with others changes across different life stages; and Jared and Anna Jeffries, who showed how contribution often begins with small steps of obedience. Pastor Brian explained that these three areas integrate to produce a fourth outcome: becoming a humble leader who follows Jesus' example of servant leadership. He concluded by challenging the congregation to consider their next steps in each area, emphasizing that this framework provides clarity, alignment, and scalability across all life stages.

On this week's episode of Love University, we're joined by Anne Abel, acclaimed memoirist, storyteller, and TikTok inspiration, whose book High Hopes (https://tinyurl.com/3bhmfb9t) recounts one woman's unexpected reinvention. After decades of treatment-resistant depression—including psychiatric hospitalization and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT)—Anne made a single, life-changing decision: she said “yes” to a solo 26-day trip to Australia to follow Bruce Springsteen on tour. That journey, at age 60, became far more than an adventure. It was the beginning of a full emotional reawakening. Here are three powerful insights from her story: The Cure to Sadness May Be as Simple as One “Yes” For much of her adult life, Anne lived behind a wall of emotional numbness. Highly educated, married, and outwardly functional, she moved through the world with deep internal pain. Therapies had come and gone. ECT helped, briefly. But nothing truly shifted—until she gave herself permission to act on something instinctual. That “yes” to a Springsteen concert tour—unreasonable, unplanned—became a way back to her authentic, powerful self. Healing Begins When You Stop Waiting to Feel Ready Anne didn't fly to Australia because she felt courageous. She did it because she knew she couldn't stay in the life she was living. Surrounded by strangers in packed Springsteen arenas, she found something she hadn't felt in years: vitality, meaning, and self-validation. The music, the lyrics, the crowd energy—they stirred emotions that had long been locked away. Bruce didn't just perform—he mirrored her back to herself. She began to feel, to connect, to hope. That alone was its own kind of healing. You Are Not Defined by Your Past—Unless You Keep Replaying It High Hopes is more than a travel memoir. It's a guide to emotional renewal, bold reinvention, and reclaiming your voice after years of silence. Anne shows that transformation doesn't require perfection—it needs permission. Through movement, music, and saying “yes” before she felt “ready,” she rewrote her narrative. Depression may have shaped her past, but it no longer had the final word. Her life began again when she stopped waiting for conditions to be perfect—and chose to live anyway. You can follow Anne's example by listening to your intuition and saying “Yes” to the calling of your soul.

Luke 1:46-55

Healing alchemy: That load you struggle under— Is it lead or gold? It's an invitation to look at the weight we carry with different eyes—to see our struggles not as proof that we're failing, but as the raw material for something deeper, stronger, and more meaningful. I brought in a line from Epictetus that has been sitting with me lately, and we explore what it means to transform our suffering instead of being crushed by it. And as a way of saying thank you, I wrote this haiku in calligraphy, framed it, and I'm giving it away. Giveaway details: Email me at poetdelayed@gmail.com with “healing alchemy” in the subject line. I'll put every entry into a drawing and choose a winner at random.

She has now been on the road for more than two and a half years – first backpacking for 15 months through Southeast Asia and India, before switching the backpack to a bicycle in September 2024 and starting to cycle towards India again. Starting in Austria, she rode through 11 countries until Georgia, then decided to fly to New Delhi because of security concerns around crossing either Russia or Iran. From Delhi she headed north into the Himalayas, where she faced high altitude and harsh weather conditions – but also the kindness of locals who took her in like family and allowed her to deeply connect with the culture.Dorothea shares her story because she wants to show other women that they can trust their intuition, take space for themselves, and build a life that feels true to them – even if it means stepping outside the comfort zone first.SummaryIn this episode of the Big World Made Small podcast, host Jason Elkins speaks with Dorothea Hochleitner, who shares her transformative journey from being a police officer in Vienna to becoming a world traveler. Dorothea discusses her decision to leave her stable job, the challenges and joys of solo travel, and the importance of following one's gut feeling.

The Good of the Kingdom - Nov 30, 2025 - Speaker: Rev. Dr. Leslie X Sanders - Sermon Series: - Watch Online: https://thenewcom.com/sermons/2025-11-30/the-good-of-the-kingdom/

This week we’re diving into one of the wildest and most hope-filled stories in the Gospels: Mark 5:1–20. It starts in absolute chaos—darkness, fear, and a man everyone had given up on—and ends with a life completely changed by Jesus. Discussion Questions: When Jesus steps onto the shore in verses 1–6, what details stand out about the man’s condition? Any questions that come about from this? After the man is delivered, verse 15 gives a clear picture of who he becomes. What stands out to you about this transformation, and why do you think Mark wants us to see the contrast so plainly? The townspeople beg Jesus to leave (v. 17), while the man begs to go with Him (v. 18). What does this contrast show about the different ways people respond to Jesus’ power and mercy? How do you see similar responses today? Jesus sends the man home to tell others “how much the Lord has done for you, and how He has had mercy on you” (v. 19). What has the Lord done for you, and who is one person you can intentionally share that with this week?

Nature's beauty is The result of letting go Life's beauty is too We hold on so tightly sometimes—trying to shape outcomes, control people, or force clarity when life just isn't ready to give it. But nature reminds us: the leaf releases when its season is done. In this week's episode of The Poet (delayed), I talk with my friend Sarah Daniels about the quiet strength of letting go—about learning to release what we can't control, trusting the timing of life (or God, the universe, whatever name you give it), and finding peace in that surrender. Letting go isn't easy. It's uncomfortable. It's scary. But it's also where calm begins. I'd love to hear what you have to say about the episode including thoughts on the poetry and the topics that were discussed. You can email me at poetdelayed@gmail.com.
