In this ongoing podcast series, I interview Akashic Records Practitioners (graduates of my Certification Program) to explore how working with the Akashic Records has transformed their lives. We discuss topics such as: what it means to "hear the call of the Records" (and answer that call) the vast healing, personal evolution, and growth that happens when we activate the energy of the Akashic Records in our lives how the Akashic Records can help us fully awaken our intuitive, multidimensional, and healing gifts (both for ourselves and to serve others) how tapping into the Akashic field can help us release outdated, long-standing patterns, beliefs, and attachments that aren't serving us the Akashic Records as a potent tool for psychospiritual development and to align fully with your highest purpose as a healer or lightworker   In this episode, I speak with Julie Brock, who became certified as an Akashic Records Master Practitioner through my Akashic Records Certification Program in 2025. Julie is a deep listener of the human experience and dedicated to supporting people on their journey back to themselves.

In this heart-stirring and theologically rich episode, Mike Neglia is joined by theologian, pastor, and author Dr. Sam Storms to discuss his latest book, The Steadfast Love of the Lord: Experiencing the Life-Changing Power of God's Unchanging Affection. Together, they explore the transformative power of divine love, the misconceptions both the world and the church often hold about it, and how pastors can faithfully and fruitfully preach the love of God in ways that stir both head and heart.Storms shares how the love of God has moved from a general theological category to a deeply personal experience in his life, and what it means to feel the love of God—not just affirm it intellectually. They also wrestle with provocative questions about worship lyrics like “Reckless Love,” whether God loves people like Hitler, and how to shepherd a church with a biblically rooted understanding of God's affection.Dr. Storms brings pastoral warmth, theological depth, and personal honesty to this conversation, offering timely wisdom for pastors, teachers, and all who want to better understand the God who sings over His people.

Song propelled Morris Stuart from his early life shepherding sheep in British Guyana to an unlikely love story in London. In his retirement, he found himself shaping a choir of Central Australian Aboriginal women, who had been breathing life into 138-year-old Lutheran hymns.Morris Stuart met his Australian wife, Barbara in London in the 1960s.The pair led a youth group attached to a nearby church, and initially tried to ignore their growing feelings for each other.Morris was a young, Guyanese activist who was descended from African slaves, and wasn't ready to face the social reality of marrying across racial lines.Morris and Barb fell in love and married several years before the film Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? was released, and featured at several screenings in London, where community members could ask them questions as a real life, interracial couple.The couple went on to have four children and moved to Australia, where Morris became a pastor with a community church in Melbourne.In their retirement, Morris and Barbara developed relationships with the Warlpiri community in Central Australia. They arrived in Alice Springs in 2005 and Morris started recruiting for a choir.More Indigenous communities started joining in and Morris formed the Central Australian Aboriginal Women's choir.They performed hymns brought by German Lutheran missionaries to the region in the late 19th Century, which were translated into Pitjantjatjara and Western Arrernte.The choir's biggest achievement is a tour to Germany in 2015 — to perform the hymns that had all but vanished from use in Germany, but have been preserved in the Central Australian desert for 138 years.Follow the Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir on Facebook.Watch the documentary about the Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir tour to Germany, The Song Keepers. This episode of Conversations touches on heritage, epic life story, origin stories, church, personal stories, childhood and reflection.

Send us a textWhen faced with life's challenges, knowing which battles to fight can transform everything. In this deeply personal conversation, Esmeralda—a single mother of two teenagers and owner of HMS Fitness—shares how learning to pick her battles became her guiding life philosophy."You don't have to fight with everything you don't agree with," she explains, revealing how this mindset preserved her energy and sanity while navigating single parenthood, building a business, and healing from past relationship trauma. Her journey from a difficult marriage to creating a thriving life offers powerful insights for anyone feeling overwhelmed by constant conflict.The conversation explores how our choices—from health decisions to relationship boundaries—create ripple effects throughout our lives. Esmeralda candidly discusses the importance of self-care, revealing that consistent exercise became her non-negotiable mental health practice. "If I don't work out consistently, I won't be able to sleep," she shares, challenging listeners to identify their own essential self-care practices.Perhaps most powerful is the discussion about friendship and support systems. Esmeralda shares moving stories of friends who appeared exactly when needed during her darkest moments, demonstrating how the right people can help you weather any storm. "Your friends are either going to challenge you to grow, to do better and support you, or they're going to bring you down," she observes.The episode concludes with a message of hope that resonates deeply: "Everybody is stronger than what they know." When life's battles seem overwhelming, remember that within you lies greater resilience than you realize. As Esmeralda reminds us, even depression spells out "I press on"—a powerful reminder that we can choose to move forward, no matter what battles we face.Support the show Standing In Your Truth Podcast with Yanni Thomas https://www.facebook.com/share/1Kcug7eVXX/?mibextid=wwXIfr

How can hospitality and kindness be a conduit for life-transforming change? What can happen when we open our hearts and homes to those in need of hope? Craig Cooper was a church planting pastor when his path crossed with a struggling Nashville musician named Walker Hayes. Walker was a self-proclaimed atheist and an alcoholic who lost a record deal and was struggling to make ends meet. Craig and his whole family welcomed Walker and his family into their lives. Loving them well, showing up when they needed a friend, and helping them as needs came up in life. It was through their friendship that God began to soften Walker's heart towards the gospel. He would eventually quit drinking and said yes to Jesus, forever changing his life. After his life changed internally, he also experienced an outward shift as he got a record deal and a hit country song called "Fancy Like." Craig and Walker chronicled their unique and pivotal friendship in their book called Glad You're Here: Two Unlikely Friends Breaking Bread and Fences. In this episode, Davey and Craig discuss the importance of walking with people through the highs and lows, how Scripture can help us in the valley, and why grace through friendship is so significant in a generation facing an epidemic of loneliness. If you've ever wondered how you can be a conduit of God's grace to those right next door, this conversation will encourage you to step outside your comfort zone and open your home and heart to those in your life who need it most.   Website: https://www.craigallencooper.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/craigallencooper/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/craigallencooper Book: Glad You're Here: Two Unlikely Friends Breaking Bread and Fences https://a.co/d/hMjcYl9 Overflowing Mercies: 100 Meditations on the Tender Heart of God https://a.co/d/1AbIu30 Church and Ministry Leaders: Join us for The Healing Leader Roundtable on March 6, 2025 in Indianapolis.

In this thought-provoking episode of "Shark Theory," host Baylor Barbee reflects on the unique power of words, drawing from his own birthday experiences. Typically not one to focus on his birthday, this year was different due to an unexpected outpouring of love and appreciation from friends and listeners alike. Through heartfelt stories shared by those he's impacted, Baylor sheds light on the priceless value of taking the time to express kindness and gratitude through words. Baylor dives deep into why many people, especially the younger generation, underestimate their ability to make a difference. With a focus on the significance of uplifting each other, Baylor discusses how even the smallest gesture—a kind word, a smile, or a simple "you matter"—can profoundly influence someone's day or even their life. Emphasizing the intangible yet powerful ripple effect of positivity, he encourages listeners to become proactive purveyors of goodwill. In doing so, Baylor believes, we not only cultivate a supportive community around us but also contribute to a more optimistic world. Key Takeaways: Power of Words: Every person holds the innate ability to uplift someone through kind words and expressions of gratitude. Value of Time: Acknowledging the time others spend to show care and appreciation enhances our appreciation for life. Planting Seeds: Consistent positive reinforcement can create a lasting and meaningful impact, akin to planting seeds for future growth. Impact on Mental Health: Recognizing that small acts of kindness can make a difference, especially during challenging times or depressive cycles. Community Building: Words have the power to build a supportive, thriving community where people feel valued and visible. Notable Quotes: "You have a unique skill. That's the ability to uplift somebody." "When somebody takes time out of their day to tell you something, you've got to appreciate that." "A kind word goes a long way, just like a farmer plants seeds knowing there'll be a harvest." "You have the decisive power to say something to somebody that could change their life." "We all know that, especially in these seasonal depressional cycles, how quickly people can spin out of control."
