Podcasts about Orphan

Summary: In this conversation, Michael Easley and Mike Douris discuss the mission of Orphan Outreach, focusing on the importance of caring for orphans and the shift from international adoption to orphan care. They explore the complexities of the orphan crisis, the significance of community support, and the transformative impact of personal visits to orphanages. Douris shares stories that highlight the deep connections formed through these interactions and encourages listeners to get involved in creative ways, emphasizing that ministry is about building relationships and demonstrating God's love. Takeaways: The Church is uniquely called and equipped to care for orphans and widows with compassion and purpose. Strong community support systems are key to keeping families together and children out of welfare institutions. Adoption is one important piece, but not the whole solution to the global orphan crisis. True ministry is rooted in relationships and fueled by a desire to reflect God's love in action. Traveling to serve orphans doesn't just help others—it often transforms your own heart and perspective. Creative fundraising and hands-on involvement can have a real, lasting impact in the lives of vulnerable children.

We work hard for our money, but there is a troubling amount of employer-based retirement savings accounts being left behind and forgotten about. Roughly $1.6 trillion is sitting in over 29 million idle 401(k) accounts that were never moved or merged at the time of a job change. They are referred to as orphan 401(k)'s and they represent a missed opportunity for millions of Americans to grow those savings.Eric Johnson and Kyle Allyn are the Vice Presidents of the Hoffman Financial Group and on this episode, they discuss how to take control of those accounts and make sure you don't leave your money on the sidelines when it should be working for you.Visit UnleashYourMoney.com to request your complimentary Portfolio X-ray!

Send us a textPrincess was just six years old when someone finally spoke up about the abuse she was suffering. That brave act by a Child Reintegration Center alumnus became the first link in a chain of compassionate interventions that would transform her life.Reverend Olivia Fonney, Director of the Child Reintegration Center in Sierra Leone, takes us through Princess's journey from trauma to healing. When Princess first arrived at the CRC, she was understandably confused and frightened. Rather than place her in the dormitory setting of their interim care facility, Reverend Olivia made the compassionate decision to take Princess into her personal quarters - recognizing that institutional care, however well-intentioned, cannot replicate the warmth of a family environment.Despite their best efforts to prepare Princess's biological parents for reunification, initial attempts failed when they couldn't keep her safe from her abuser. This setback led to placement with a foster parent - a nurse who provided Princess with stability, nurturing, and specialized care for her emotional needs. This therapeutic environment became the foundation for Princess's remarkable transformation.Today, Princess is thriving. She's confident, expressive, and truly connected to her family after successfully reunifying with her prepared biological parents. She attends school regularly, has developed a love for reading, and dreams of becoming a teacher. As Reverend Olivia powerfully states, "No child is ever too lost or too broken to find her way back to love and stability."Princess's story reminds us of the critical importance of speaking up when we see abuse, the power of trauma-informed care, and how communities working together can change a child's life trajectory.

P.E.I. has long been a draw for fans of L.M. Montgomery and Anne of Green Gables. Now, online book influencers are bringing literary tours here — and Megan Follows, the actor who created an iconic version of Anne in the 1980s, is creating a documentary about the famous character.

This episode begins with one of the great scenes in the mythologies of India. Indra had become King of the Earth by winning a great battle; he also became obsessed with power and increasingly demanding. Just when all the people were being reduced to dust and bones by the endless orders and sudden changes, the self-proclaimed lord of the earth has a surprising encounter with a ragged beggar boy. Although young and seemingly an outcast, the orphan boy knows more than the king about the use of power, the meaning of life and how the world can change in a moment.     We are each the beggar boy in the sense that we know what it means to be the orphan, the outcast, the immigrant or other who is being rejected, alienated or exiled. And in the end, the orphan boy, who breaks the spells of self-glorification and self-delusion that entraps the king and all the land, turns out to be Vishnu, the original creator who dreams up the world. Those who insist on claiming that they are superior and more righteous or entitled than others are not only psychologically rejecting their own inner orphan, they are also severing their connection to the underlying and essentially unifying dream of life.      Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.

Were you told that everyone is a child of God? What if that's not what the Bible actually teaches? In this powerful message, we unpack the truth of spiritual adoption—the difference between being made by God and being adopted into His family.

What if one of the most iconic characters in pop culture wasn't just a fictional hero, but a living archetype, an entity with its own will, forged in the minds of millions and fed by the imagination of its creators? Legendary comic book writer Alvin Schwartz thought his time with Superman was long over. But when a mysterious seven-foot-tall monk appeared at his doorstep claiming to be a tulpa, Schwartz was thrown into a mind-bending journey through the strange borderlands of reality and fiction. The monk, calling himself Thongden, insisted he was real… and fading. And he needed Schwartz to keep him alive. In this season finale, we explore the metaphysical memoir An Unlikely Prophet, uncovering Schwartz's hidden memories of psychic events, spontaneous channeling, and paranormal influences that began the moment he took on the mantle of Superman's writer. We hear bizarre tales of supernatural inspiration involving Jackson Pollock, mystic paintings of Hindu deities, and even a Hawaiian shaman who claims Tulpa Superman once saved the islands from volcanic doom. Then for our Plus+ members, we dive into the chilling Soviet archives of anomalous underwater encounters—where submariners report collisions with invisible crafts, stone spheres ramming hulls, and USOs that defy radar and reason. We follow the trail of Russian researcher Mikhail Gerstein into lakes and oceans where strange entities dwell beneath the surface, including terrifying run-ins from elite “hydronauts” who may have seen things no one was meant to survive.

Send us a textThe global movement to transition children from orphanages to families is gaining momentum, but significant challenges remain. In this thought-provoking episode, David Titus Moussa hosts a conversation with Stephen Usembe, a care leaver and founder of Kenya Society of Care Leavers, and Phil Aspergren, executive director of Casa Viva in Costa Rica, as they unpack key insights from the recent Rising Tide Conference.Stephen shares his unique perspective as someone who grew up in institutional care, emphasizing the critical need for research and data to drive meaningful policy change. "When we know better, we have a responsibility to do better," he reminds us, highlighting how institutions isolate while families embrace. The experts discuss how poverty, misguided funding models, and entrenched attitudes continue to separate vulnerable children from families that could care for them with proper support.Phil recounts a powerful story of transformation: when 26 adolescents in a well-run children's home were asked what they wanted most, every single one answered, "I want to live in a family." This led to a complete transition from institutional care to family placements for all 26 youth—proving that change is possible even in challenging circumstances. He challenges listeners who support orphanages not to withdraw funding, but instead to use their influence to ask important questions and encourage transition toward family-based solutions.The conversation explores practical strategies for redire________Travel on International Mission, meet local leadership and work alongside them.

Send us a textWhat happens when life strips everything away before you've even begun? In this deeply moving episode of the Quarterback Dadcast, we welcome Clark Wilcox, whose extraordinary journey began with unimaginable tragedy—losing both parents within ten days when he was just five years old.Clark is the founder and host of the Digital Recruiter & Digital Recruiter Podcast.Growing up in France to an Algerian father and American mother, Clark's childhood was abruptly transformed when his father died unexpectedly. Days later, upon learning the government planned to take her son away, his mother took her own life. Transported to America to live with his mother's family, Clark had to learn a new language, adapt to a new culture, and somehow make sense of his shattered world.Through the guidance of his grandmother and adoptive father, Clark discovered the power of positivity, curiosity, and resilience. "My dad was never going to let me be a victim," Clark reflects, "but he didn't do it by telling me—he did it through action." These early lessons would become the foundation for his approach to life, business, and eventually, fatherhood.Now a successful entrepreneur running The Digital Recruiter and raising two young sons with his wife, Clark shares how his faith journey became the cornerstone of his recovery from both childhood trauma and later professional setbacks. His candid discussion about reconciling with his adoptive mother demonstrates how forgiveness works as a healing force not just for the forgiven, but primarily for the forgiver.What makes Clark's story so compelling isn't just what he overcame, but how he transformed his experiences into wisdom. The values he prioritizes—humility, grace, forgiveness—reflect a man who has thought deeply about what truly matters in parenting and in life. His journey reminds us that our greatest challenges often contain the seeds of our most important contributions.Whether you're facing challenges in your parenting journey or simply seeking inspiration from someone who has transformed pain into purpose, this conversation will leave you with practical wisdom and renewed hope.

Send us a textChild welfare is undergoing a profound transformation worldwide as organizations shift away from institutional orphanages toward family-based care models. But what does this transition actually look like on the ground? How can we redirect well-intentioned support toward solutions that truly serve children's needs?This eye-opening conversation brings together true pioneers in the global care reform movement. Stephen Ucembe draws from his lived experience growing up in a Kenyan orphanage to advocate for family care through Hope and Homes for Children and Transform Alliance Africa. Phil Aspegren shares his remarkable journey from orphanage founder to family care champion as Executive Director of Casa Viva, supporting transitions across Latin America. Together with host David Titus Musa of Sierra Leone, they unpack myths about orphanages that perpetuate family separation.The statistics are sobering: for every three months in an institution, a child loses approximately one month of development. Yet there's tremendous hope in the successful transitions happening worldwide. We hear about a Honduran children's home that reunified all 40 children with families, then redirected their resources to support 125 vulnerable families in the community, preventing separations before they happen.Whether you're a donor, volunteer, or simply care about vulnerable children, this conversation presents a compelling vision for reform.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey lets players spend time with renowned philosopher Sokrates - but it also lets us meet his surprisingly younger and outspoken wife, Xanthippe. Sources are clear that Sokrates valued her independent mind and argumentative nature. This raises the interesting question, to what extent was Sokrates' worldview influenced and shaped by Xanthippe's honest companionship?Prof Michael Griffin helps Tristan Hughes to understand this dynamic relationship.

Welcome to God’s Love for the Unlovable and Gospel Rant series and format, Vagabond Diaries. In the last Rant I shared something special and valuable to you in your Christian walk. I said that ever since the Fall, humanity, all sexes, races, all socioeconomic category, whether you’ve had an easy life or hard, each us is born with a deep relentless drive for one thing. It is how we are made. It is how God wired us. We each long for father. By this I am not referring to a a physical paterfamilias, rather that connection, that space, that feeling that you are in an embrace where you are cherished, appreciated, adored, where someone finds you lovable, lovely and loved, where you know, just know that someone has your back. Those connections are very hard to come by. Ultimately this longing for father can only be satisfied in the embrace of Jesus himself—ultimately in heaven. Truth is that he feels that toward you right now, but your midbrain has been so abused, terrorized and wiring fried by bad relationship after bad relationship, your defensive mechanisms wont let you feel it. So Paul says in Eph 3, you need to regularly access God’s power (that would be noticeable) through the Spirit in your inner being before you can even begin to hope to experience the vast love of Jesus that is already yours and is flooding over you like a tsunami. Doesn’t that make sense? So that is the core message in my new middle school fantasy, The Tale of the Orphan Magician. It is hard to count all of the actual or functional orphans in the book, including whole countries. Everyone and every institution is longing for father—including an entire continent. In the book, Amaratzim will become embroiled in an all-out world war, driven by father longing. What can happen? Will they ever feel it? And what is the Great King going to do? It is a book for young teens, but as with all good fantasy books, adults will greatly value from reading it. Today’s excerpt is from the storyteller dragon Rahgornah. He is telling the history of the Trollian war in the context of this lack of father longing. He seems to think that all wars and all conflicts are ultimately caused by that absence. If he’s right, that is an important messaging from we Christians. Here he is.

We may not be able to do business directly, and I can probably have contacts for you who could help you grow your business and impact. I am a connector, public speaker & self-worth specialist. I help business owners & leaders restore self-worth & accelerate toward goals. I am a Co-author of "How to become a 6-star business," an Amazon bestseller book.My clients are business leaders who show symptoms: getting by, not charging what they are worth, self-doubt, lack of confidence, communication- sales, recurring relationship issues with biz partners or customers, and not having a voice. I can come in and find out why they are happening. I find the roots of it then I access the mind to do instant surgery on negative emotions and limitations to facilitate fast & lasting transformations 1/1 or in groups. I connect them to their new identity, inner peace, abundance, creativity, joy, and fun. What if your Business & Life are a reflection of your mind & beliefs? I use setbacks, triggers & challenges to help you rise to a new level of authentic leadership. While most leaders concentrate on strategies, they may not be the solution to the challenges. My method is one of the fastest possible way to internal mindset changes that externalize into new connections, business opportunities and health.I worked with a lot of people to break through barriers that hold them back, see the reviews below. . Awareness is step one & I am able to find those limitations. The results are nothing short of mind-blowing that could have taken them decades to work through on their own if ever. I am talking about 30-40 year old patterns of believing "I am not good enough","I don't deserve it","I am not lovable","I am not important", etc loaded with negative emotions. I have had all of these for decades myself and I did not know it, I was just running in circles. Then I came to a point where I asked for help from a specialist. That was my turning point. I am giving that same turning point to people. Your big questions should be: What do I want? How can I have it? After that "What shall I do with my life that is worthwhile?" My work comes down to these basic questions. I have spent 15 years in the personal development industry to figure out what was holding me back. I have never found it.

Higher education is under fire—from attacks on DEI to threats against research funding, political pressure is mounting fast. While headlines often focus on elite and Ivy League schools, Professor Cecilia Orphan reminds us that regional public universities and rural institutions are also in the crosshairs. These essential but often-overlooked institutions serve diverse student bodies, support regional infrastructure, and anchor local communities. Orphan traces the roots of today's political backlash and makes the case that if colleges want to keep serving the public good, they'll need to get organized and push back, together.   For more on this topic:    Read Orphan's report on regional public universities in Third Way, co-authored with Mac Wetherbee. Read her key findings brief, Why Regional Comprehensive Universities are Vital Parts of U.S. Higher Education.

Dan's first of two tales is a modern encounter story set in Sauk Centre, Minnesota's Palmer Hotel. Lynze, of course, was excited when she heard "sock" center!  The second story shares the haunted history of Kansas City, Missouri's St. Mary's Episcopal Church. Does the ghost of an early church leader still haunt its grounds? Then Lynze comes to us with three stories. Her first reminds us of how creepy kids toys can be. Then, an ongoing family situation with a family has one person asking what she married in to! Lastly, a gentle and loving ghost tale to remind us to be grateful for what we DO have in life! Monthly Patreon Donation: This month we are donating $11,620 to Farm Rescue, which is the only nonprofit organization of its kind providing farm and ranch families with the operational support they need in times of crisis.
