This episode contains sensitive topics, including addiction and pornography. Listener discretion is advised.Chaos often feels like it's pulling us in a thousand directions. But what if, at its core, it was actually a master class — an invitation to learn discernment and return to our inner truth?In this week's episode of A Psychic's Story, spiritual teacher and content creator Taylor Perkins joins Nichole to share his personal journey of awakening and the lessons he's learned about navigating illusion and reclaiming power.Taylor opens up about growing up in a strict religious household and the cognitive dissonance that shaped his early years. He recounts the powerful moment as a teenager when he felt consumed by divine love — a turning point that awakened him to the reality that Source energy has always been within.Taylor and Nichole also explore:Reality as a mirror — how our beliefs, energy, and patterns reflect back to us in the physical world.Chaos as curriculum — why contrast and confusion are essential for spiritual evolution and why discernment matters more now than ever.Breaking loops — understanding repetitive patterns in our lives and how to shift them with awareness and compassion.Expansion over perfection — why striving for flawlessness keeps us stuck, and how embracing expansion allows for real freedom and growth.Integration — remembering that the answers aren't outside of us. The spiritual path is about self-sourcing truth and reclaiming sovereignty.Taylor's message is that discernment is not just a skill — it's a way of remembering who you truly are in the middle of a chaotic world.You can reach Taylor by following him on Instagram @iamtaylorperkins or on TikTok @mrcultdaddyIf you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, know you're not alone.

When God saves you, He transforms you, and your life will bear the evidence of His holiness. David begins Psalm 15 with a question.Who can sojourn or abide with God, and who can dwell or remain in the presence of God? The simple answer to this is no one, unless they have been redeemed and made righteous through saving faith.David answers his opening question with six characteristics of a life that has been transformed by God. These six characteristics are not an exhaustive list but are representative of the transformation that God brings to your life through salvation that produces in you a life after God's own heart.

In 2004, Rav Ari Katz moved with his family to Gush Katif, to serve as Rosh Yeshiva of a local high school. Just over a year later, soldiers knocked on his door and told him to leave. In this 9 Days special episode, Rav Katz shares:What drew him to Gush Katif despite knowing the threatsThe beauty, unity, and spiritual strength of the communityHis firsthand account of the expulsion—including “the longest day of his life”How he and his community coped with the trauma, picked themselves up, and started againWhy he believes October 7th began in the summer of 2005Modern Day Churban?As we approach Tisha B'Av, the day we mourn our exiles and national losses, this story feels especially relevant. Because Gush Katif was not ancient history—its a kind of modern Churban, including the destruction of entire communities, shuls and schools.And yet, its a very complicated story. The 'disengagement' was the product of a Jewish government, and a Jewish army comprised of Jewish soldiers. The residents were not sent in to actual exile, they moved in to other parts of a flourishing and successful State of Israel. Rav Katz doesn't shy away from these complexities.Pain and HopeWe spoke about pain and trauma, but we also spoke about resilience. After the final Mincha minyan, David Chatuel addressed the community. A year earlier, his preganant wife and all four of his children were murdered by terrorists. He got up and said "When tragedy strikes, you can crawl under your blanket—or you can get up and live."Guest BioRav Ari Katz is the Director of Sderot Hesder YeshivaFor MoreMake sure to sign up for exclusive written content at ShtarkTank.orgFor more on the Gush Katif Heritage Center click hereFor more on Sderot Hesder Yeshiva click here

We all want to understand ourselves — and the people we love. But can a personality test really tell you who you are? Or who someone else is? They can help, sure. But be careful they don't become boxes. Real love means seeing beyond type, mood, or instinct — and asking: what's really going on in this person's heart?

Is it possible to love someone — and still have them feel unloved? In this episode, we explore the power of the five love languages and how miscommunication can keep us from truly connecting. Whether in marriage, friendship, or family, learning how someone receives love can transform your relationships. This isn't manipulation — it's intentional love, the kind Jesus calls us to.
In this conversation, Tommy Miller, Dubb Alexander, and Jason Clark discuss the themes of Tommy's book 'Unveiled', which challenges and reframes Western views of God, justice, and salvation. They explore the importance of theology upgrades, the role of Jesus in revealing the Father, and the shift towards a relational understanding of God.The discussion emphasizes the need to understand salvation beyond an afterlife perspective and highlights the significance of human identity in the context of redemption. The guys delve into the intricate relationship between the spirit and the flesh, exploring themes of dominion, salvation, and the practical applications of faith. They discuss the significance of the human body in spiritual matters, the nature of certainty in faith, and how creation responds to human expectations.Finally, the dialogue highlights the importance of community, connection, and the joy of sharing a transformative message, all while incorporating personal anecdotes and cultural references, particularly those centered on food and fellowship.For more on Tommy MillerWebsite: www.legacychurchint.orgFor more content like this, go to:https://afamilystory.org/Please rate, review, share, and SUBSCRIBE!Podcast intro and outro music by Wilde AssemblyJoin A Family Story's Mailing Listhttps://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/e2f4i4Join Rethinking God with Tacos Facebook Group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/godandtacosFollow Rethinking God with Tacos on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/rethinkinggodwithtacos/Follow Jason's personal Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/afamilystory.org/Follow Jason on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/jasonclarkis/ Follow Jason on X at: https://x.com/jasonclarkis Send a donation!! https://app.moonclerk.com/pay/36393kxxeh8
