What happens when deconstruction becomes an identity—and woundedness becomes a platform? In this episode of the Future Christian Podcast, Loren Richmond Jr. talks with pastor and writer Tara Beth Leach about the growing online ecosystem where deconstruction is monetized, anger is rewarded, and discipleship is often replaced by endless dismantling. Tara Beth shares why she believes some deconstruction is necessary (especially as faith matures), but warns that deconstruction without reconstruction can become a spiral that forms people in cynicism rather than hope. She describes how churches can respond to cultural crises without becoming “statement churches,” why partisan politics becomes idolatrous, and how practices like liturgy and theology formation can subvert polarization and re-form the Christian imagination. In this conversation, you'll hear about: Why online deconstruction and local church reality are often very different The danger of mistaking deconstruction for discipleship How algorithms reward outrage and shape Christian formation Why Gen Z is often hungry for embodied, communal faith Liturgy and slow formation as a pastoral response in a divided age The difference between charisma and character—and what churches celebrate Supporting women in ministry: why men often “call out” people who look like them Tara Beth's “G.R.E.A.T.” morning prayer practice and her book The Great Morning Revolution Tara Beth Leach is a pastor, preacher of the Word, and writer. She speaks widely at conferences, retreats, and universities across the country on Women in Ministry, Church Leadership, and the call to be a Radiant Witness. She is the Senior Pastor at Good Shepherd Church in Naperville, IL and previously served at Christ Church in Oakbrook and as Senior Pastor of First Church of the Nazarene of Pasadena (”PazNaz”) in SoCal. She is a graduate of Olivet Nazarene University and Northern Theological Seminary and has authored three books, including Emboldened and Radiant Church. Tara Beth is the co-founder of Propel Ecclesia and is also the co-host of The Pastors Table podcast. She has two beautiful and rambunctious sons and has been married to the love of her life, Jeff, since 2006. Mentioned Resources:

Crafting a charitable giving strategy isn't just about tax efficiency—it's a way for clients to define the deeper purpose of their wealth. When advisors center generosity in both planning conversations and firm culture, they can strengthen relationships and attract values-driven clients. This episode explores how integrating charitable intent into financial planning not only expands impact, but also fuels practice growth. Zac Larson is the co-founder of IntentGen Financial Partners, a hybrid advisory firm based in Naperville, Illinois, managing $550 million in AUM for 895 households. Listen in as Zac shares how he positions clients as "engaged partners" by focusing not just on net worth but on "net impact," as well as how he uses working conversations about priorities and passions to uncover giving opportunities. You'll learn how IntentGen tracks and publishes the charitable donations it facilitates to build community trust, why the firm built its pod structure to expand advisor capacity, and how its flat-fee-plus-AUM model supports a wide range of engaged clients. Zac also reflects on hosting community fundraising events, offering personal touches like client phone calls, and why building around generosity has been key to attracting aligned clients and creating lasting impact.

Skip the banter: 00:08:21 Jeanine Nicarico was home sick from school when someone kicked in the front door of her family's quiet Naperville home. What followed was not just a horrific crime against a ten-year-old girl, but a decadeslong unraveling of truth, lies, and catastrophic failures within the justice system. Two young men (neither of whom matched the description of the killer) were sentenced to death based on manipulated confessions, junk science, and a system desperate for a conviction. Meanwhile, the real killer had already moved on to take more lives. Allison tells us the rest of this story that started with one little girl and exposed one of Illinois' darkest legal disasters.

Season 14, episode 375 reviews episode 116 with Dr. John Ratey, exploring how exercise and lifestyle shape brain health and learning. The episode highlights Naperville's Zero Hour PE case study, explains how physical activity boosts attention and academic performance, and introduces BDNF (brain-derived neurotropic factor) as “miracle grow” for the brain. Practical takeaways include exercising before challenging work or school, prioritizing low-glucose nutrition, using hormesis (fasting, intense exercise, sauna) to increase resilience, and improving sleep and stress management to support cognitive health. On today's episode #375, we review our 2021 interview with Dr. John Ratey and will learn: ✔ How physical activity boosts attention and academic performance to improve results at school or in the workplace. ✔ What should we all understand about BDNF (brain-derived neurotropic factor) also known as “miracle grow” for the brain. ✔ How to build a faster, stronger, more resilient brain with exercise, nutrition, and with understanding hormesis. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. Episode 375: Featuring Dr. John Ratey For today's Episode 375, we continue with our review of past episodes as we make connections to prior learning with whatever it is that we are currently working on this year. I'll create a roadmap at the end of this season so this pathway will make sense to us (I hope!) as we piece together important parts of our success puzzle and begin to bring them to life. You'll notice that around the time of the pandemic, in 2020, our interviews took a turn towards health and wellness, and to stay on track, I created a framework of our Top 5 Health Staples on Episode 87[i], which eventually evolved into our Top 6 Health Staples. Today, we covering the first health staple of exercise, jumping to Episode 116[ii] on “The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain” with best-selling author Dr. John Ratey. Dr. Ratey is also an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and an internationally recognized expert in Neuropsychiatry. Dr. Ratey has published over 60 peer-reviewed articles and 11 books in 17 languages, including the groundbreaking ADHD “Driven to Distraction” series with Dr. Edward (Ned) Hallowell, MD. With the publication of “Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain,” Dr. Ratey established himself as one of the world's foremost authorities on the brain-fitness connection. His most recent book, “Go Wild,” explores how we can achieve optimal physical and mental health by getting in touch with our caveman roots and how we can “re-wild” our lives.

Learn how Solemn Oath's founder opened a brewery without brewing, transformed a hometown IPA into a cult classic, and built Hidden Hand's wild beer lab.Solemn Oath Brewery Founder and CEO John Barley shares how an untrained beer lover built one of Chicagoland's most creative and community-driven breweries. From his time in Belgium and Wisconsin to opening Naperville's first brewery in over a century, John's story is one of bold leaps and boundary-pushing flavor.He explains why Solemn Oath's Still Life taproom in Logan Square channels Belgian beer-hall energy with Midwestern hospitality, and how a surprising Coors connection helped him find his first brewer. John also discusses the rise of brewery euchre tournaments, how he launched a brewery without ever brewing a beer, and why he believes branding and camaraderie matter as much as hops.After the beer break, John dives into Solemn Oath's flagship Snaggletooth Bandana West Coast IPA, tracing its evolution from its early sea-hop bitterness to today's smoother, citrus-forward profile — and the cult following that's inspired fans to tattoo the Snaggletooth tooth on their skin. He also shares the origin of Hidden Hand, Solemn Oath's experimental offshoot exploring foeder-aged lagers, barrel-aged saisons, and approachable beers like The 77 light lager. Hear about the Oaked Val d'Or that won Best in Show at FOBAB, and what makes foeder aging uniquely expressive of Chicago's barrel-aged beer heritage.Plus: how Solemn Oath navigated Naperville's original three-drink limit, whether a third location might be next, and how a Robert Burns poem inspired the brewery's name while Napoleon's “hidden hand” lent mystery to its sister brand.About Solemn Oath Brewery: Solemn Oath Brewery is a Chicago-area brewery known for its Belgian-inspired and barrel-aged beers, offering a diverse lineup that blends American ingenuity with traditional Belgian styles.

Patrick unpacks listener questions about why bishops can’t marry, offers candid advice on dealing with awkward moral conversations at family events, and doesn’t shy away from what he thinks about clapping or disruptions in church. He clarifies the real story behind Adam and Eve’s children, addresses concerns about hypnotism and teens with cell phones, and draws sharp lines on what should, and shouldn’t, be open to discussion in modern classrooms. Stories, tough calls, and unexpected perspectives roll in rapid succession. Eva (email) - Can you talk today about the first reading from Timothy and the bishop being married? I mean, I know Deacons can be married currently, but the bishop? (01:03) Steve - How did the world get populated by Adam and Eve? Did Cain have children with his siblings? (12:05) All of the Charlie Kirk related audio we’ve played on the show has been posted in one spot on Facebook and X (21:02) Ellie (email) - Several members of the congregation responded vocally to what the priest was saying in his homily. For instance, when the priest asked a rhetorical question, some of the congregants would loudly answer the question. Not only that, but some of the parishioners waved their hands in the air. (25:37) Ruben (email) – Is the Vatican having a LGBQT event? Michael (email) - Do you really believe that today, in the 21st century, a man with a hunting rifle, assault rifle or any kind of firearm could stand a chance against the might of the United States military? (30:03) Heberto (email) - Is hypnotism a sin? (33:23) John (email) – I don’t understand how X (twitter) works (38:45) Audio: Teacher training model for school district in Naperville references topics that are closed for discussion because they are “settled” by social scientists, and students should not be allowed to discuss any opposing views in the classroom. For example, global warning and systemic racism have already been settled per this clip and are not open to discussion on if it exists but only what to do about it. (41:22) Jacob (14-years-old) - When should I get a smart phone? (47:09)

EPISODE 223 When I worked as a professional software engineer for AT&T Bell Laboratories, I was a member of the AT&T corporate running team. At that time, one component of AT&T Bell Laboratories was located in Naperville, Illinois, which is a city about 30 miles south west of the city of Chicago. The AT&T running team was very competitive at that time and there were a couple of runners who could run about 4:10 mile. On my best days, I was running about a minute plus slower, or could run about a 5:30 pace per mile at that time. On May 19, 1988, I ran a 6K (3.7 miles) running road race, the Spring Fling Run, sponsored by AT&T Bell Labs at the Hickory Ridge Conference Center in Lisle, Illinois, which is a city near Naperville. I had a winning strategy in mind for the race. The strategy I used to win that race made me think about developing a winning strategy in life and in business. How do You develop a winning strategy in your own life? Taking the time to develop and execute your own winning strategy allows you to create a significant positive impact in your own life.

In this episode of All Rise, we are bringing you a wide-ranging dialogue between Abdu Murray (a former Muslim who is now a Christian) and Fred Stella (a former Catholic who is now Hindu) on life's deepest questions. How did the universe come to be? Why is there evil and suffering? What happens after death—and what role do reincarnation and karma play? Together, in front of a packed audience at Compass Church in Naperville, Illinois, they engage candidly on the Hindu and Christian views of creation, the problem of suffering, the caste system, and the hope of the afterlife. With honesty and respect, this conversation highlights where these two great worldviews differ, but also where they challenge us to think more deeply about truth, justice, and ultimate meaning. Whether you come from a Hindu background, a Christian background, or are simply seeking answers to life's biggest questions, this dialogue will give you fresh insight into how faith traditions wrestle with what it means to be human. This event also includes audience Q&A. Fred Stella is ordained as an Outreach Minister by his local Hindu temple. He also serves as a member of the National Leadership Council of the Hindu American Foundation, an advocacy group based in Washington, DC, and is an in-demand voice actor.
