No gift is too small!Partner with us at BeBroken.org/donate. Thank you for your support!----------In this episode, I talk with Lyschel Burket about something every betrayed spouse needs to think about: what happens if there's a relapse? We get honest about how deeply destabilizing that can be, especially for wives who have already been through the pain of betrayal and are trying to rebuild a sense of safety.Lyschel helps us understand why a relapse can feel like another trauma. It can knock a wife's body and mind right back into survival mode, making it hard to think clearly, make decisions, or even know what to do next. That's why we spend time talking about the value of a relapse safety plan, which is really a practical way to prepare before a crisis hits.We walk through the important pieces of that plan, including how to define the difference between a slip and a relapse, why it matters to think ahead about your physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, and relational needs, and how a plan can actually reduce panic when life feels chaotic. We also talk about the unfairness many wives feel in having to create this kind of plan, and why it still can be an act of wisdom and self-care.At the heart of it all, Lyschel reminds us that a woman's safety is not ultimately dependent on her husband's choices. God is the true source of her provision, protection, and hope.To learn more about Lyschel and the resources she offers to wives, visit HopeRedefined.org.Topics Covered in this Episode: Relapse and betrayal trauma.How relapse destabilizes a spouse.Slip vs. relapse.Why a relapse safety plan matters.Preparing before crisis hits.Fire escape plan analogy.Key safety plan categories.Hope and stability in God.More Resources:Relapse Safety Plan WorkshopRedeemed Hope intensiveOnline Wives Care GroupsRelated Podcasts:Helping Wives Restore Hope After Betrayal Trauma in MarriageIdentifying and Meeting Needs in a Betrayed WifeThe Need for Boundaries After Betrayal----------Please rate and review our podcast: Apple and SpotifyFollow us on our Vimeo Channel.

The Bible makes it clear that believers should meet the needs of others. Yet we sometimes hesitate, unsure of who has a need that should be met. Did you know there is a test to see if a person has unmet needs? There is! Simply hold a mirror directly under a person’s nose and watch what happens. If, after a few seconds, the mirror fogs, that means they have unmet needs. The point is that every living, breathing person has unmet needs. Now we don’t need to carry a mirror around in our pockets every day, much less place it under the noses of the people we meet, but we can begin to develop a willingness to help others by seeing and meeting their needs. Keep this in mind as you interact with the people you encounter each day. Did you know there is a test to see if a person has unmet needs? There is! Simply hold a mirror directly under a person’s nose and watch what happens. If, after a few seconds, the mirror fogs, that means they have unmet needs.” In our session today, we see Jesus modeling this for us, He connects with two men who had unmet needs. Jesus demonstrated both awareness of their needs and concern about those needs. Through His willingness to meet their needs, their lives were changed dramatically. Believers can do the same by meeting needs and pointing others to Jesus. The post CONNECTING WITH OTHERS LIKE JESUS DID – Meeting Needs (YOU-Sum’26, Study 1, Session 1) appeared first on YOU.

Session: 1 Date of First Use: June 7, 2026 Title: Meeting Needs The Point: Meeting needs is an opportunity to introduce others to Jesus. Life Connection: We can be thankful that many organizations around the world—both secular and faith-based—are intent on helping people in need. Christians should be at the forefront of helping others. Jesus met needs, but He didn't do so simply for the purpose of meeting a need. He took it a step further: He used His actions to point to who He is. We can do the same as we meet needs. Session Passage: Luke 5:12-16,27-32

How do you respond to the needs of those around you, and what have you learned through those experiences? Rob Parsons shares the story of his response to a need that lasted 45 years and changed his life.

The Good Samaritan didn't ignore suffering—he got involved. True love is active, interruptible, and sacrificial. In Micah, God calls us not to grand gestures but to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly. As we follow Jesus, we learn to slow down, notice others, and respond with compassion. Blessing our neighbors means moving toward pain with courage and grace. Luke 10:25-37 (ESV)And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion. He went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him. And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him, and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.' Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.”Micah 6:6-8 (ESV)“With what shall I come before the Lord,    and bow myself before God on high?Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,    with calves a year old?Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,    with ten thousands of rivers of oil?Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,    the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?”He has told you, O man, what is good;    and what does the Lord require of youbut to do justice, and to love kindness,    and to walk humbly with your God?

She emphasizes the importance of celebrating small wins, collaborating with community partners, and adapting to constant change in Medicaid and tailored care plans.This episode shines a light on both the challenges and the resilience of care managers working to improve outcomes and support their communities—one patient at a time.

Clinical psychologist Dr Julie Smith has a gift for explaining complex ideas in under a minute (which is GREAT for new-age attention spans). With over 4.8 million TikTok followers, two best-selling books and a glowing endorsement from our own Dr Em, having Dr Julie join our Academy of Imperfection is nothing short of a dream. In this episode, Dr Julie reframes the feeling of overwhelm, helping us to see it as valuable information about how we might not be meeting our needs, rather than something to fear. Then, it’s all about confidence, baby. Getting into the nitty-gritty, Ryan and Dr Julie redefine failure, showing how confidence isn’t just built from successes, but from every experience – good, bad and (luckily for Hugh) the awkward. Oh, and did we mention she’s Dr Em approved? Smithy, we’d gladly talk to you forever. If you want to watch this full episode on YouTube, follow this link: https://bit.ly/4iwtFwz

"We think we need more money to be happy, but in reality, we just need those people to talk with and count on and feel connected with."Did you know that money-related arguments between married couples are the most predictive of divorce compared to any other type of conflict?Our host Ed Coambs sits down with financial therapist Dr. Sonya Lutter to unpack this uncomfortable truth and how couples can take steps to masterfully navigate financial challenges of all kinds. Sonya draws from over two decades of research and marriage counseling. When she's not speaking onstage or working with clients, she's teaching at Texas Tech University as the Director of the Financial Health and Wellness program."If I'm more stressed, the people around me become more stressed. Our brains are wired to pick up on each other's emotional states."Ed and Sonya kick things off talking about the power of open communication regarding money and role expectations as early as possible in a relationship. Sonya shares how unspoken assumptions and unmet expectations can silently brew conflict, even without overt arguments. She explains why it's so important not just to have regular conversations with your spouse, but also to seek professional support on your financial wellness journey."While we might believe we're in complete control of ourselves, much of our behavior is instinctive and triggered by external stimuli."They also explore the connection between financial anxiety and family dynamics. Sonya discusses how the fight-or-flight response influences our interactions and responsibilities as adults and parents. Finally, she and Ed touch on the magic of co-regulation (versus codependency), through which partners can support each other in managing stress.Key Topics:Why Couples Get Stuck Around Money (02:37)Why Conflict is Not Restricted to Yelling at Each Other (06:27)Focusing on the Thing and Not the Person (10:32)Defining “Physiological Stress” and the Power of “Co-Regulation” (14:18)What Triggers Financial Anxiety?

As part of that mission, we've decided to be a “church of small groups” because we believe life change happens in community. What Is Life Change According to the Bible?1. Justification: where God pronounces a sinner righteous because of their faith in Christ. In other words, this is about being “saved.”2. Sanctification: the process by which Christians are set apart for God from the rest of the world. Or the process by which Christians are made holy. Sanctification is about becoming more like Christ throughout our lives.3. Glorification: God's final removal of sin from your life so that you can “stand faultless before him in glory for all eternity. Glorification is about the end of our story—all of eternity in heaven, where there are no more tears, temptations, pain, or fighting.See 2 Corinthians 5:17, 1 Thessalonians 4.Why Are Small Groups Important?In Acts 2, we see a model for the early church. It began with a sermon from Peter, and 3000 became Christians in one day. But that 3000-member “church” soon began meeting in small groups. Here were the characteristics of those more intimate community gatherings.1. Spiritual GrowthThe disciples spent time in the Word of God, or “the disciple's teaching,” in small groups.2. FellowshipFellowship points to the duty believers have to one another to help each other grow in their faith.3. The Breaking of BreadWhen small groups gathered, they not only shared meals, but communion—putting Jesus front and center by remembering his death, burial, and resurrection.4. PrayerThe early disciples spent time expectantly praying for God to show up tangibly to change lives and circumstances.5. Meeting NeedsSmall groups help meet one another's needs. These needs are not just financial. They're also mental, emotional, and spiritual.Do you want to experience the life change that happens in a small group?Live near O'Fallon, MO, and want to find a 2Rivers small group?

David Newman sent a text to a friend the morning of Oct. 7. Something terrible had happened. Word quickly spread among Newman's group of friends, who had known each other since high school.Newman had traveled to the music festival close to the border of Gaza on Friday night. It was supposed to be a fun weekend with his girlfriend “celebrating life,” something Newman was very good at and loved to do, according to friend Gidon Hazony. Hazony later learned that Hamas had murdered Newman, 25, on Oct. 7, but not before saving nearly 300 lives, including the life of his girlfriend. Newman's actions that day, and the atrocities Hazony and so many in Israel witnessed on Oct. 7, led Hazony, David Gani, and several of their friends to quit their jobs and start a nonprofit called Soldiers Saves Lives. The organization is working to collect tactical and humanitarian aid for Israel Defense Forces. According to the group's website, they have supplied more than 20 “IDF units and civilian response teams with protective and self-defense gear.”Gani, who serves as board chair and CFO/CTO of Soldiers Save Lives, and Hazony, president of the organization, recently traveled to Washington D.C. to raise support and awareness for their mission to provide IDF soldiers with needed supplies. They join the podcast today to explain how to partner with them, and to honor the legacy Newman leaves behind.

Having and following a vision isn't just for big dreamers and world-changers. As Christians, we all have been called by God to pursue His plan and purpose for our lives. Having a vision will guide both your destination and your direction in fulfilling God's purposes. In today's devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef explains that a life-vision at its most basic should boil down to service.   If you would like more insight into today's devotional topic, listen to Dr. Michael Youssef's sermon Vision Above All Visions: LISTEN NOW | WATCH NOW
