Podcasts about redemption house

From a childhood marked by trauma and instability to multiple incarcerations, heroin addiction, and even surviving a gunshot to the head—Rick opens up about the chaos that defined his past and the redemption he's found in recovery.Rick reflects on the moment he finally surrendered on February 5, 2008, and how that surrender sparked a transformation that's helped him become a community leader, father, and advocate. He shares how meaningful work—including launching Redemption House and running recovery housing for over a decade—continues to give his life purpose.

So we had assumed that Redemption House would be a ridiculous good time and boy were wrong. We discuss the horrors of hell houses, Kelly taking an evil turn, religious people speaking in tongues (including Emily witnessing this at a church camp), Greg's (romantic?) turn and wonder what other shady things the Our Mother of Holy Grace is up to. We also discuss the car crash that is Noa, Wes being the most pathetic man alive, Johnny being hopefully just a nice boy and Imogen's righteous (and amazing) anger. We also carve out some time for a Dancing with the Stars update and the final theory corner!Episode 112 content warnings: hell houses, homophobia, transphobia, suicide, religious fundamentalists, misogyny, abortion, womens autonomy, murder, gore, abuse, domestic abuse, sexual abuse, rape, gaslighting, mental health, manipulationBrenton's detective club theme is "80s retrowave" by Eugene BardujaSend your podcast or show questions to our inbox at deadendspcast@gmail.com.Find all of Emily's links here: https://linktr.ee/emilypyleFind all of Brenton's here: https://linktr.ee/brentonpyle

We're enjoying this new season more as we get lots of time on summer romance. We discuss the new pairings and hope that the boys don't turn out bad. We also discuss Faran's superhuman feats of strength, Henry being a turd, our excitement for Redemption House, Mouse being driven to an abandoned restaurant and get very worried about Lola, and continue to get annoyed by Noa and the PLL series' problems with bi people.Episode 111 content warnings: murder, gore, abuse, domestic abuse, sexual abuse, rape, gaslighting, mental health, manipulationBrenton's detective club theme is "80s retrowave" by Eugene BardujaSend your podcast or show questions to our inbox at deadendspcast@gmail.com.Find all of Emily's links here: https://linktr.ee/emilypyleFind all of Brenton's here: https://linktr.ee/brentonpyle

Overcoming the odds is a story we've all heard, but few have lived it quite like Tomi Cardin, founder and CEO of Redemption House. Her personal journey from recovery to revolutionizing support for women post-incarceration is nothing short of inspirational. Throughout the episode, we peel back the layers of Tomi's mission to provide a sanctuary for those in the throes of re-entry, and how her faith-driven approach is not only reshaping lives but also collaborating closely with the criminal justice system. It's a conversation that highlights the profound necessity of transitional housing and the pivotal role it plays in the landscape of sentencing reforms and overcrowded prisons.Touching on the lives transformed by Redemption House, we recount the compelling narrative of a Delaware County woman whose initial skepticism of the program's faith elements eventually became her cornerstone of support. The episode culminates in an exploration of the synergetic spirit thriving within Allen County's social service network, where nonprofit leaders unite with integrity and shared vision. We discuss the intricacies of financial stewardship, the importance of an abundance mindset, and the power of vulnerability among leaders in the nonprofit community. Join us as we celebrate this tapestry of redemption, volunteerism, and community partnership, and discover the true impact of supporting organizations dedicated to changing the narrative around addiction, recovery, and societal reintegration.

In s02e06 “Hell House” of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin: Summer School, Imogen is outraged to learn that the stupid Redemption House plot line is happening in her old house. Noa inexplicably wants to choose Jen over Shawn, but then she learns Jen is back to her thieving ways. Mouse helps Ash set up a Pride pool party in response to the lame hell house. Tabby is concerned about Wes being missing, until she finds a bunch of horror stuff at his apartment. And Faran tells Greg and Henry off, and then learns that Greg is an ally, because he has a cousin, who lives in Riverdale, who is gay.

Street Soldiers Radio discussed the complex layers of human trafficking with the executive director  Vanessa Russell of Love Never Fails (based in Oakland, CA) and Elizabeth Quiroz of Redemption House of the Bay Area (Santa Rosa, CA). Real life journeys are shared, signs of the various forms of trafficking are explained and we are saddened…

The author of Hebrews tells us that we can go confidently into God's presence. This would have been shocking to the original readers. No high priest would tell people to walk confidently into the Holy of Holies. Yet this is exactly what God commands his people to do. And he does so because of the work of Christ. Jesus, the Great High Priest, has passed through the heavens and offered to God the once-and-for-all sacrifice: himself. The Priest is also the Lamb. And that sacrifice has given us the necessary righteousness needed to approach God's throne. Whatever you are going through, the invitation is to come to God's throne. Come through the blood of Jesus. Come and receive mercy and grace in your time of need. In Christ, Justin Lakemacher, guest speaker Justin Lakemacher is the Program Director at Redemption House, a gospel-centered residential addiction ministry in the Twin Cities serving men from across the US. He is also a pastor at Cornerstone Community Church in Burnsville where he oversees a biblical counseling addiction ministry and community groups. He is passionate about counseling and the church. He and his wife, Megan, live in Shakopee with their compassionate and adventurous son, Ryland.

Everyone in the town of Stanton, KY sees this drug issue differently from each other, either because of their personal lives or professional roles.

About Elizabeth Quiroz From Trauma to Triumph Elizabeth Quiroz is a student at Sonoma State University, where she is working towards a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology and a Master's Degree in Social Work. Her goal is to become a probation officer where she can help make a positive impact on the lives of those transitioning through the justice system. As Elizabeth pursues this goal, she also serves as an Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor at Athena House Residential Treatment Center for women in Santa Rosa, California, and she serves as a human trafficking victim advocate. Elizabeth's passion for helping victims of human sex trafficking has led her to start a nonprofit organization that will open a safe-house for human trafficking victims here in Sonoma County called Redemption House.  Elizabeth does all of this while working with her husband, José "Mico" Quiroz to raise their five children, and working to raise awareness about human trafficking and its long-term impact on the lives of girls and women in communities across the country. Elizabeth's passion and determination were fueled by a desire to atone for what she describes as mistakes of her past. These mistakes include past drug use, multiple arrests, and incarcerations. But, she has come to realize that these mistakes were a product of her childhood years surrounded by alcoholism, addiction, and being the victim of abuse.  Elizabeth was the victim of a broken foster-care system that focused on her negative behavior while missing signs of abuse and trauma. Elizabeth soon found herself trapped in an abusive relationship, the victim of human trafficking, moving from the foster care system to the juvenile justice system, and on to the jail and prison systems. Elizabeth dropped out of high school to run away from her problems. She developed a drug addiction, and by age fifteen, she found herself trapped in human sex trafficking and abusive relationships. By age sixteen, she committed a robbery under the control of her trafficker. She was arrested and placed in Juvenile Hall and later transferred to a group home facility in Sacramento, California. She soon became an adult and continued her life of drug addiction and crime while being controlled by her trafficker. Elizabeth was now spending time in and out of the county jail and state prison systems. In 2011, at age twenty-six, Elizabeth was arrested; this time, she promised herself it would be the last time. She had just given birth to a new baby boy and was determined to turn her life around by getting out from under her trafficker. While incarcerated, Elizabeth took classes and received her GED, and completed Starting Point, an in-custody drug treatment program. Upon her release, she attended the Women's Recovery Services, a one-year residential treatment program. It was there that she decided she wanted to save lives by helping those still sick with addiction and those in bondages of human sex trafficking. This desire to help young women at risk is what motivated Elizabeth to go to college. After completing the Women's Recovery Services program and receiving a certificate, Elizabeth enrolled at Santa Rosa Junior College (SRJC), where she graduated with honors,  earning three Associate of Arts degrees in Social Advocacy, Behavioral Science, and Human Services. Elizabeth's service to the community began upon her enrollment at SRJC, volunteering for the Bear Cub Scholar Program for foster youth. She soon became President of the Second Chance Club, an onsite support program for formerly incarcerated students. On Christmas Eve 2018, Elizabeth received an Unconditional Governor's Pardon from Governor Jerry Brown through the support of numerous community leaders. Motivating Others and Raising Awareness Elizabeth is a sought after speaker and presents on various topics, including Criminal Records Expungement, Addiction Recovery, and Human Trafficking. Among her audiences are; Sonoma County Jail GED graduate...

Dr. Mark E. Shaw has Special Guest Justin Lakemacher back on the program. Justin is a Christ-follower, and biblical counselor, who serves as the Program Director of The Redemption House. He also is a Commissioned Addictions Biblical Counselor with The Addiction Connection. Find him at redemtionhouse.net Justin describes four benefits of helping addicts think through an eternal mindset to help them live better 'one day at a time' now. He asks: "What would it be like if we lived one day at a time because we thought more about eternity? The Bible simultaneously calls us to live off of our daily bread --Matthew 6:11 (give us our daily bread) but at the same time it calls us to set our hope on the grace that will be brought to us at the return of Christ. So I don't think living one day at a time is at odds with living with an eternal mindset. I think Scripture calls us to do both" Justin says. How do you instill hope in someone for the day? I've talked with guys who say [such things as]: "My future looks so miserable I've been addicted for 50 years I'm never going to be able to make it." [It's] looking to the future without the lens of the Gospel … they're not looking far enough ahead .. because in heaven – the main joy about heaven is that were going to be with God. We're going to see Him face to face. What does that really mean? When we are fully united with God there will be no sin in heaven! In the new heavens and the new earth…there won't be any detox, there won't be any Narcan needed. No one's gong to overdose in the middle of the street. Every tear (In Revelation 21:4-5, Jesus says that he "will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” (ESV) So, there will be no more tears…Every tear cried in addiction --the sin and the suffering that comes with addiction --will be wiped away. -Justin Lakemacher Titus 2:11-13 says: "For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, 13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ." (ESV)

Dr. Mark E. Shaw interviews Justin Lakemacher, Program Director of Redemption House in Minnetrista, Minnesota which is found on The Addiction Connection's list of residential programs with a genuinely biblical approach. He serves on The Addiction Connection's Advisory Board. Justin discusses the ministry's slogan, "worshipping our way out of addiction." He explains that because every heart needs a radical transformation, immersion in the Gospel and teaching of the Biblical narrative and its practical application to life is the focus of the curriculum and teaching at Redemption House. Cultivating a new affection for God (with new desires that follow) is the goal that replaces the worship disorder of finding comfort and relief in things other than God. Justin's life verse is Romans 8:1, and he tells his redemption story through it. He explains his role at The Redemption House, the phase structure of the program itself, the integration of the residents into a local church, and transition back home. Justin agrees that there are personal challenges to consider when working in residential addiction ministry so he must remain intentional to ensure he has relationships within his local church who care for him personally, and that he take breaks to make sure he has times of refreshing.

The Redemption House is finally getting shuttered and viewers are treated to three competitions in just one episode of The Challenge. Sheldon and John have a surprising and all-too rare unanimous choice for MVP. Follow us on Twitter: @ShelAlexander @jchidleyhill

The Lavender Ladies and Team Young Bucks shoot their shot at Banony and there's drama in the -sigh- Redemption House. Sheldon and John break it all down on a very spooky episode of You Killed It. Follow us on Twitter: @ShelAlexander @jchidleyhill

Lots of switching between the Main House and Redemption House this week, and even with a Purge challenge and elimination we don't see anyone go home. An elimination gets all the players frustrated, a nomination is hard to predict with the power vote and numbers that are close and could go either way. With just 2 episodes until the final, we hope to see them pick up the pace soon. Let's send some people home and get to the final!

Cara Maria and Marie get sent to the Redemption House and earn their way back into the Main House all in the same episode of The Challenge: Final Reckoning. John and Sheldon went straight to the source and got Marie Roda on the podcast to give all the background details. Follow us on Twitter: @Marie_TBD @ShelAlexander @jchidleyhill

We get two elimination competitions in this episode!  But one of them is for the Redemption House and we learn that the Redemption House is still a thing!  Lots of past relationship drama and name calling but we do get to see some people punch some walls so that's okay.

It was supposed to be a quick episode, but it didn't work out that way I guess. Alliances are picking sides as the teams dwindle in size. Cara and Marie have to fight their way out of a time deficit in the challenge, then fight for their place in the various alliances. We keep forgetting about the late comers Cory and Devin. Where are we placing our bets for the ultimate final winner of this show? With only a few weeks to go and a Redemption House still to settle, there may be too many question marks for us to figure this out.

Oops! We went on a few tangents. This recap of episode 11 of Final Reckoning is peppered with opinions and hot takes. We cover house confrontations, Twitter explanations, and the monotony on of a Redemption House stay-cation. Plus! The end of one challenge and one full daily! With winners and losers! Can you believe? This episode was more about relationships and drunkenly yelling into the abyss than anything else. Also, Brad is on this season. Just in case you forgot.

Double crosses, karma, and old sweat pants, today’s recap of MTV’s Final Reckoning is one for the books! We say goodbye to some new-faves and welcome back some more new-faves. Basically, we like the new additions to The Challenge! Also, it seems like we are getting closer to the end of the season? And Kyle’s philandering ways worm into this week’s storyline.

*ch ch* REDEMPTION HOUSE. This week is all about the Redemption House and the Apocalypse that actually sends people home for once! CT tries his best to stay in the game, but maybe not as hard as Derrick tries. At this stage in the game, I guess you have to give it your best shot to stay in. They're battling for a million bucks after all. *ch ch* MAIN HOUSE. No real elimination from the main house so it's a bit laid back, but we end the episode with an eating challenge which is our favorite. Lots of puking and lots of fun! We go way off topic this week, which once guy on iTunes hates. So it goes.

For it's one, two, three strikes you're out...Just kidding. We start tonight talking about CT's wedding and trying to figure out why a cast member blocked us, then we dive into tonight and talk about EVERYTHING (14:39), elimination deliberation (42:00), Is this it for CT on the show (51:00), The elimination itself (54:12), the purge Challenge (58:19), Why Zac just doesn't vibe with Paulie (1:08:10), Jake's "Three Things" (patent pending) (1:17:00), angry rant (1:20:00), and our superlatives for the night (1:23:00).https://twitter.com/smashingheadspchttps://instagram.com/smashingheadspodcasthttps://www.facebook.com/smashingheadspodcastsmashingheadspodcast@gmail.comhttp://www.smashingheads.podbean.com

Tonight, it got weird. Not the show on MTV, just our episode. We start off with Jake doing the intros and it just fell apart from there. We talk about the main house/why Amanda doesn't know the Spice Girls (14:33), then move on to the Redemption House and how CT is losing his mind (25:17), then we get into the voting/elimination for the evening (28:38), biased vs unbiased pertaining to our opinions (34:00), KAM (43:50), Back  to Redemption House (47:20ish), a semi deep dive on the whole Paulie and Cara relationship (50:00ish), back on track to the doublecross (1:00:00ish), and then WHO SMASHED HEADS/GOT THEIR HEADS SMASHED (1:03:32).*Any issues with the timecode show be directed to c/o Jake. https://twitter.com/smashingheadspchttps://instagram.com/smashingheadspodcasthttps://www.facebook.com/smashingheadspodcastsmashingheadspodcast@gmail.comhttp://www.smashingheads.podbean.com 

Eight episodes in and I have a very important question: Will anyone ever be sent home? The mercenaries play for a spot in the house, but let's be honest… they're getting into the game either way because if they lose, it's Redemption House time. We see Kyle slutting it up, drama at a winery, drama in a bus, drama at home, and a salad bowl with lasers shooting out of it. Shane has a strategy in the rugby game, but will it work and is it worth it?

This epsiode is clearly a lot about Shane. I mean, what else could we talk about? Oh yeah, the mercinaries and their elimination, Kyle + Ashley (-Faith), the Redemption House, the rugby daily and why Shane played it smart, and basically why tonight's episode was so funny.https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/smashing-heads-podcast/id1407524680https://twitter.com/smashingheadspchttps://instagram.com/smashingheadspodcasthttps://www.facebook.com/smashingheadspodcastsmashingheadspodcast@gmail.comhttp://www.smashingheads.podbean.com

Shane shines! The Redemption House continues to be boring and Johnny seems nervous. This is the second week in a row that Final Reckoning has knocked our socks off and we’re loving it.

Kam has changed the game! Marie and Shane were right that this was the best episode so far and we couldn't agree more. We start off up top acknowledging a current cast member who listens to our show and also happens to be our next guest (2:50), we defend ourselves against Cara stans (7:29), then we turn our attention to the first elimination of the night (13:49), we breifly discuss the Redemption House and Natalie's (again) weird reaction to seeing anyone come in (22:07), the crazy mental/physical Daily Challenge, and then we do a DEEP DIVE on Kam's brilliant strategy (36:55), we get into the next elimination and how we think that will play out with the Mercenaries (Thanks TJ) (51:16), and we finally get to our segment that the show is named after (1:07:22). https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/smashing-heads-podcast/id1407524680 https://twitter.com/smashingheadspc https://www.facebook.com/smashingheadspodcast https://instagram.com/smashingheadspodcast smashingheadspodcast@gmail.com http://www.smashingheads.podbean.com

Poor Brad deals with the bad news from the Redemption House, while the rest of the Challengers prepare for a Purge Challenge. We get relationship drama we don't care about, team drama we're too old for, and reminisce of the days when we used to get a challenge and an elimination in one week.

We learn about how the Redemption House is gonna work and also Paulie loses his mind

In this week's episode Maggie and Rachel recap The Challenge: The Final Reckoning; Episode 4, where the Redemption House elimination was BUNGLED by MTV once again and we were proven right in our assumptions that Paulie is a bit of a trash person and competitor. (Dear MTV, don't invest in Paulie.) We also took a deep dive into some thought-provoking male behavior in the form of Zach, Brad, Paulie, Jay-Z, Tony and A-Rod. Speaking of Jay-Z, Maggie and Rachel give their review of the On The Run II tour and pick their favorite moments. Alsoooo some Bachelor theories, Men Tell All round-up, opinions on if we have the constitution to survive a marriage with Justin Bieber and your weekly dose of belittling Tony's Challenge skills as well as his charisma and overall entertainment factor. And as always we pick our Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle of the episode!  HIATUS STARTS NOW! Follow @themaxipod on twitter bye.   

Tonight's episode had a lot to talk about. Before we get into all that, we talk about what past season we are watching now, shoutout to Marie for having a sense of humor about #PantsTube, Hannah gives a speed recap of last week's episode, and then we get into all of the Paulie centered drama for the week. We hit our thoughts on the Redemption House doublecross, the elimination format, the elimination itself and how we felt and if we really think Paulie can back up all his big talk. There were a ton of different angles to hit this week. Follow us on Twitter @smashingheadspc: https://twitter.com/smashingheadspcLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smashingheadspodcastFollow us on Instagram @smashingheadspodcast https://instagram.com/smashingheadspodcastEmail us: smashingheadspodcast@gmail.comVisit us: http://www.smashingheads.podbean.comiTunes link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/smashing-heads-podcast/id1407524680?mt=2

Love triangles, bungee cords, and Britni’s multiple meltdowns, the third episode of The Challenge: Final Reckoning is a master class in tension making and breaking. TJ has changed the game with a few new twists and turns and some teams can’t put aside their beef to play together as one. Will Marie be able to work with Cara Maria? Will Angela be seduced by Bananas’ “wit”? And will the Redemption House ever be interesting?

We get a look at some of the drama in the Redemption House.  Then we finally discover who is going to be Johnny's partner.  The contestants engage in a swingtastic Challenge after which we learn who is safe and who is not in eliminations this season.

What is Bad Girl's Club, Redemption House still stinks, Tony Time, Derrick still stinks, Britni.

Continuing the powerful testimony of Jason's recovery from alcohol, along with special guest Baylor from Redemption House.

Big moves, big eliminations, bye bye Jonathan Banana, Crazy Cara, baby.

It's crybaby episode part two, but things are heating up and people are quickly heading to the Redemption House. The Challenge may have been lackluster, but the elimination was intense and crazy. We're winding down this season and are excited to see how these alliances have shaken up.

It's a crybaby episode! A burn vote turns out to change the game forever. The dumb Redemption House is still in play, so once again no one was sent home. Despite these issues, this is maybe still one of the best episodes we've seen so far.

Another live episode. I hope we're working out the bugs. Hunter is a crybaby who starts fights and gets dumped. I mean, seriously, is there a worse person than Hunter? Well, maybe Nelson who also starts fights. Another XXX episode that is high on drama and insanity, low on eliminations. Is the Redemption House still in play? I guess we'll find out next week.

It's guys night at Challenged, so we do this efficiently this time around. But we're lacking notes, so it's a pretty off-the-cuff show. Camila has been edited out of the Challenge, and the Redemption House gets a second change by eating a bunch of nasty stuff.

The Alliance discusses JJ's trip to Italy, the issues with the show, the trivia episode being a letdown, the Redemption House being the worst place in the universe, and Nelson potentially being actually good (okay, probably not).   Then Ammo joins the podcast around minute 26 to talk about his experience on Real World: Go Big Or Go Home, leaving the Mormon church, what he's been up to, what he thought of The Challenge, and why Dionne hasn't been on a Challenge season yet.

Aneesa's ankle, Redemption House returns (Ammo does not), TJ loves pain, Veronica is just a friend, Kailah continues winning. Music: Bensound.

Time to start redeeming! The members of the Redemption House have their change to return to the dirtiest ever. 

Tim and Hill are back, and so is everyone else from the Redemption House. The gang battle it out over water. Who will be redeemed? It's a short episode since all we're discussing today is the Challengenation.

John and Sheldon have a lot on their minds after the latest episode of The Challenge: Dirty 30. Whether it's Cara Maria going all in on Tony, Tony's drinking problem, Redemption House love, or Ammo's wardrobe, the boys cover it all. Follow us on Twitter @ShelAlexander @jchidleyhill

CT's return (with some girl?), TJ's shorts, breaking bottles, Darrel Sleepin, Cory's baby dick. Music: Bensounds.

It's drama overload with love triangles and physical altercations in the Redemption House. Cory is making everyone mad while others are enjoying Tuesday Tinis. We see a little of the nomination process, but in MTV fashion do not see an elimination or even finish the voting process. Maybe next week.
