Podcasts about Reintegration

The acting head of Corrections says staff integrity is a priority, after revelations of a major prison corruption investigation. Twenty people have been charged, including 15 Corrections and Reintegration officers at Auckland's Mt Eden, Waikato's Spring Hill, and Auckland South Corrections facilities - and five members of the public. They're accused of smuggling phones, drugs and tobacco to prisoners in exchange for cash. Corrections' acting chief executive Rachel Leota says they will continue to support staff. "Work with our unions - and I met with them last night - there are many other things that we can be doing, and we will continue to commit to doing that to ensure our staff are safe."

What if the Book of Job is not primarily about explaining suffering—but about surviving trauma? In this episode of The Biblical Mind Podcast, Dru Johnson sits down with Old Testament scholar and licensed therapist Michelle Keener to explore the Book of Job through the lens of trauma, PTSD, lament, and healing. Drawing from her book Comfort from the Ashes, Keener argues that the long poetic sections of Job—often skipped by modern readers—may actually portray the slow process of trauma recovery rather than abstract theological debate. Together, Dru and Michelle discuss why Job's friends sound so much like modern Christian clichés, how churches often rush people past suffering toward “victory,” and why lament is essential to spiritual health. The conversation also explores the neuroscience of trauma, the body's involuntary survival responses, repetition in trauma processing, and how God's presence—not simplistic answers—brings healing in Job. They also examine the church's discomfort with anger, grief, and unresolved pain, asking whether modern Christians have lost the biblical language of lament found in Job and the Psalms. This episode is a thoughtful and deeply pastoral conversation for anyone wrestling with suffering, trauma, faith, or the meaning of the Book of Job.

We are joined by criminologist, researcher, and educator at the University of Belize, Dr. Aveka Mano, to hear about the impact of restorative practices on the lived realities behind complex issues like gang involvement, human trafficking, and youth reintegration, and its connection to higher education.   Dr. Mano challenges traditional approaches to justice by emphasizing long-term reintegration over short-term punishment. She highlights how stigma, lack of opportunity, and systemic gaps often push individuals back into cycles of harm, and how restorative practices can interrupt that pattern. She asks us to consider what it would be like if we prepared individuals leaving institutional systems with the same intentionality we bring to higher education.   Dr. Avekadavie Parasramsingh Mano is an assistant professor and distinguished researcher at the University of Belize within the Faculty of Management and Social Sciences. Trained at the University of the West Indies, she specializes in Criminology and Criminal Justice, with a focus on Belize's socio-legal landscape. Dr. Mano is widely recognized for her fieldwork on gang culture, human trafficking, and sex worker migration. Her scholarship engages with complex issues at the intersection of crime, human rights, and social inequality. Beyond academia, Dr. Mano collaborates with the Forensics Department, the Leadership Intervention Unit, and other organizations working with at-risk youth. Her work is grounded in a commitment to bridging theory and practice to advance sustainable approaches to crime prevention and community development in Belize.  Tune in to discover Dr. Mano's roadmap for sustainable crime prevention rooted in early intervention, community collaboration, and restorative practices.

Let us know what you think! A lot of veterans, first responders, and law enforcement officers never start treatment for PTSD, TBI, or substance dependency for one reason: they can't afford it. Frontline Healing Foundation exists to remove that financial barrier and fund the therapies that actually work, including magnetic e-resonance therapy. This episode breaks down who qualifies, how to access support, and how listeners can help fund recovery for the people who served.About the Foundation Frontline Healing Foundation is a nonprofit that pays for evidence-based treatment for active-duty military, veterans, law enforcement, and first responders dealing with PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and substance dependency. Funded therapies include magnetic e-resonance therapy (MeRT) and other proven brain health protocols. The foundation also supports reintegration so recovery doesn't end at discharge from a program.Key Topics CoveredWhy financial barriers stop military and first responders from getting careWhat treatments Frontline Healing Foundation funds, including MeRTWho qualifies (hint: you don't have to be special operations)Reintegration support after treatmentHow individuals can fund recovery for warriorsWhy This Matters The system has gaps. Insurance denies, VA waitlists stretch out, and private treatment runs into five and six figures. While the bureaucracy moves, the warrior doesn't.

In this episode of The Light Inside, we delve into the complex interplay between trauma, visibility, and reintegration (healing). Our guest, Steve Sapourn, shares his deeply personal journey of working through the lasting effects of sexual abuse trauma. Steve speaks with striking honesty about the struggle to feel worthy, known, and fully seen while also carrying the impulse to remain hidden and unnoticed.We explore the concept of witnessing as a powerful tool for healing. Witnessing involves the paced, relational experience of staying with what once felt too overwhelming to hold, without rushing it or turning it into a character verdict. This approach can help restore sequencing, meaning, and contact, thereby softening self-attack, reducing performative coping, and making more room for intimacy, grief, worthiness, and repair.Steve shares his experiences with various therapeutic approaches, including traditional talk therapy and somatic practices. He emphasizes the importance of understanding one's nervous system and how it can be conditioned by early trauma. Steve also discusses the need for clinicians to provide a clear framework for therapy, helping clients understand the goals and processes involved.Throughout the conversation, we touch on the challenges of couples therapy, the importance of building trust, and the role of self-compassion in the healing journey. Steve's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of being truly seen and held within relational spaces. Subscribe on Substack for additional clinical resources as we explore how witnessing can help reintegrate unresolved trauma, reduce shame, and foster a deeper sense of connection and belonging.Timestamps[00:01:46] Healing through witnessing trauma.[00:04:29] Witnessing as an alternative.[00:10:39] Trust building in therapy sessions.[00:12:44] Physiological responses in relationships.[00:16:58] Nervous system and therapy dynamics.[00:20:45] Performance in therapy sessions.[00:24:44] Predictive nature of the brain.[00:29:12] Childhood trauma and self-identity.[00:34:34] Vulnerability and personal growth.[00:37:55] Inner child healing through love.[00:42:47] Inner child's resilience and strength.[00:45:40] Growth through self-acceptance.[00:50:49] Self-acceptance and emotional support.[00:54:22] Parentification in childhood experiences.[01:02:49] Hero's journey and personal growth.[01:06:22] Worthiness of being helped.[01:11:08] The importance of witnessing.[01:12:34] New learning and the past.CreditsHost: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: Steve SapournExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.

“When the Evidence Is Missing: How the Court Upheld Justice in Ewing & Searcy”When the Evidence Is Missing… or Challenged: Can Justice Still Stand?This week on Turning A Moment Into A Movement, we confront a critical question at the heart of our justice system:What happens when the evidence—the very foundation of a case—is compromised?Investigative journalist Diane Bukowski, Editor of Voice of Detroit, joins us to break down these cases and expose the deeper issues surrounding evidence, accountability, and post-conviction barriers.In the case of Darrell Ewing and Derrico Searcy, the Michigan Court of Appeals upheld the dismissal of charges after years of discovery violations made a fair trial impossible.But in the case of Kevin Deshawn Sykes, the court denied relief—even after new evidence, affidavits, and claims of innocence were brought forward.Two cases.Two very different outcomes.One system.So what makes the difference?Is justice truly about truth—or about procedure?Diane BukowskiEditor of Voice of Detroithttps://voiceofdetroit.netTurning A Moment Ino A Moment Team:-Jay Love Host: Founder and Creator of Turning A Moment Into A Movement, The Justice for Gerard Movement, to learn more about The Justice for Gerard Movement go to: ⁠www.change.org/Justice4Gerard⁠Executive Board member of Michigan Coalition of Human Rights, G100 Prison Reforms & Reintegration Global Advisory Council Member-Rev.

Heute zu Gast ist Dorothea Thomaßen. Sie ist Fachärztin für Chirurgie, seit über 20 Jahren in eigener Praxis mit medizinischer Hypnose tätig, Vizepräsidentin der Deutsche Gesellschaft für zahnärztliche Hypnose und Chefredakteurin der Fachzeitschrift „TranceForm". Ihre hypnotherapeutische Arbeit verbindet ein breites psychosomatisches und somatopsychisches Spektrum mit besonderer Expertise in Schmerztherapie, Hypnoonkologie und natürlicher konversationeller Hypnose. In dieser Episode des Podcasts berichtet sie: Wie sie vom Arbeiten am ​Körper in der Chirurgie zum Arbeiten mit Patient:innen in Trance gekommen ist. Warum für sie die Auftragsklärung der zentrale Dreh und Angelpunkt jeder hypnotherapeutischen Arbeit ist. Weshalb Katalepsie und Dissoziation nicht primär problematische Phänomene sind, sondern kompetente Selbstschutzreaktionen. Warum nicht die Dissoziation das eigentliche Problem ist, sondern die Reintegration in den Körper. Wie sie mit einer klaren somatischen Auftragsklärung und einem kataleptischen Arm als Körperfeedback arbeitet. Was Tabus mit Symptomen gemeinsam haben und weshalb ihre Überwindung nicht primär über Diskurs, sondern über Zustandsveränderung gelingt. Eine Folge über Körper, Sprache und die Frage, wie Integration möglich wird.

A multitude of orphanages in the Global South continue to be supported by well-meaning Christians throughout the world. Research and scripture both indicate that God's design for children is to grow up in a family, but what do we do when it's the church that needs to be convinced of this? Brandon Stiver is joined today by Tony Lewry who shares his experience in orphan care and cross-cultural ministry over the years as we dive into what it looks like to change mindsets and practices in these global chains of care. Tony leads The Homecoming Project and coordinates across a coalition of organizations tackling the issue of children outside of parental care. In our conversation, Tony and Brandon discuss the evolution of family-based care, the challenges and successes of implementing foster care, and the vital role of the church in advocating for vulnerable children.  Support the Show Through Venmo - @canopyintl Subscribe to Our New YouTube Channel Resources and Links from the Show The Homecoming Project Online The Homecoming Project Instagram Conversation Notes (AI Generated) 03:00 Introduction to Tony Lewry and His Journey 05:56 The Evolution of Family-Based Care in Brazil 09:13 Challenges and Successes in Implementing Foster Care 11:57 The Role of the Church in Foster Care Advocacy 14:54 Reintegration and Community Support for Children 17:54 Navigating Reentry to the UK 20:52 The Homecoming Project: History and Vision 23:47 Collaborative Efforts in Care Reform 27:03 Addressing the Funding Dilemma in Child Care 30:05 Engaging with Orphanage Supporters 32:59 The Coalition Approach and Its Impact 36:11 Next Steps for the Homecoming Project 39:08 Final Thoughts and Recommendations Theme music Kirk Osamayo.

The Church was determined to wipe out any vestige of Judaism from Spain, any custom, any law, any practice, and thousands of Jews would pay the price.

In this episode of The Light Inside, Jeffrey Besecker is joined by Tena Cacic for a grounded, nuanced conversation on how early childhood attachment experiences shape adult identity, performance roles, and dissociative coping patterns—especially within helping and therapeutic professions.Together, they explore how achievement, productivity, and over-functioning can quietly become protective strategies rooted in early relational environments. Rather than framing these patterns as pathology, the conversation examines them as adaptive responses that can later harden into identity, limiting flexibility, relational attunement, and therapeutic presence.Throughout the episode, Jeffrey and Tena differentiate somatic signals from narrative overlays, highlight the risks of epistemic and spiritual flattening, and unpack how unresolved practitioner patterns—such as rescuing, serial fixing, and over-responsibility—can subtly shape client dynamics.This episode is particularly relevant for clinicians, coaches, and educators seeking to deepen their awareness of counter-transference, performance-based identity, dissociative bypassing, and capacity-building without collapsing complexity or bypassing discomfort.Timestamps00:00 — Episode framing• Introducing the focus on early attachment, identity, and therapeutic relevance04:30 — Lived experience and trauma awareness• Tena shares personal experiences that shaped her understanding of helplessness, control, and internal role shifts10:15 — Victim–rescuer–persecutor dynamics• How early relational patterns evolve into adult performance and protection roles15:45 — Childhood development and pre-verbal imprinting• Why somatic cues precede cognition and narrative meaning-making21:30 — Over-responsibility in therapeutic roles• The subtle line between holding space and over-functioning for clients27:00 — Somatic signals vs. belief systems• Distinguishing embodied emotional intensity from post-hoc interpretation33:30 — Cultural conditioning and vulnerability• How inherited narratives shape children's sense of threat, safety, and capacity39:30 — Performance, flow, and bypassing• When calm, productivity, or “peace” becomes another form of avoidance45:30 — Identity rewards and letting go of the story• How suffering, competence, and achievement can become sublimated anchors52:30 — Nervous system regulation and productivity• Reframing performance without dissociation or over-control59:00 — Closing reflections• Relational attunement, differentiation, and building adaptive capacity over identity rigidityCreditsHost: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: Tena CacicExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.

Counselling and reintegration assistance have become central tools for European governments aiming to incentivize and support the uptake of assisted return among migrants facing a return order. In recent years, the European Union has allocated more resources to strengthening these mechanisms, and Dutch policymakers have similarly undertaken efforts to encourage assisted return. Yet the actual influence of actions on migrants' return decisions remains widely debated. New evidence from the Netherlands offers a clearer picture of how these forms of support function in practice, what shapes migrants' decision-making, and what kinds of interventions make a meaningful difference. This Migration Policy Institute Europe webinar explores the findings of its study for the Research and Data Centre (WODC) of the Dutch Ministry of Justice and Security. The study analyses nearly 118,000 case files from the Dutch Government's Repatriation and Departure Service (DTenV), combined with interviews with dozens of experts as well as Iraqi and Nigerian migrants who left the Netherlands after receiving a return order.  Speakers discuss how timing, counselling approaches, and partnerships shape the potential for counselling to create space for meaningful conversation and results in the returns space. They also focus on practical steps to strengthen investments in this area.    Speakers include:  Elena Cavagni, Project Leader, Dutch Council for Refugees Osita Osemene, Project Director, Patriotic Citizen Initiatives (PCI) Nigeria Ravenna Sohst, Policy Analyst, MPI Europe Claudia van der Horst, Senior Advisor, Knowledge and Strategy, Repatriation and Departure Service, Ministry of Asylum and Migration, The Netherlands Moderator: Camille Le Coz, Director, MPI Europe More information: www.migrationpolicy.org Related Report: To Leave or Stay?

It's Friday, December 19th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Christian prisoners released in Eritrea but many more remain without charges Several Christians in Eritrea, Africa were among a group of prisoners recently released, possibly because of poor health. However, seven church leaders remain in detention after two decades without a charge or a trial, reports the Christian Post. Open Doors noted this week that the release appeared to include believers, businesspeople, and politicians. The names of those freed have not been made public, but the group confirmed that none of the seven church leaders it has advocated for, over the years, were among them. The leaders have each been detained for more than 20 years without legal proceedings. In addition, Open Doors said they have not been permitted to see family members, have access to a lawyer, or appear before a court. Hebrews 13:3 says, “Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.” In national address, Trump says prices coming down In an 18-minute speech from the White House on Wednesday night, President Donald Trump discussed the economy. (Read the transcript here) TRUMP: “Eleven months ago, I inherited a mess, and I'm fixing it. When I took office, inflation was the worst in 48 years, and some would say, in the history of our country, which caused prices to be higher than ever before, making life unaffordable for millions and millions of Americans. This happened during a Democrat administration, and it's when we first began hearing the word affordability.” He addressed the falling cost of goods and services since he took office in January of this year. TRUMP: “I am bringing those high prices down and bringing them down very fast. Let's look at the facts. Under the Biden administration, car prices rose 22% and in many states 30% or more. Gasoline rose 30 to 50%. Hotel rates rose 37%. Airfares rose 31%. “Now, under our leadership, they are all coming down and coming down fast. Democrat politicians also sent the cost of grocery soaring, but we are solving that too. The price of a Thanksgiving turkey was down 33% compared to the Biden last year. The price of eggs is down 82% since March, and everything else is falling rapidly.” Arrest warrant issued for Brown University shooter Authorities have reportedly issued an arrest warrant for a suspect in the Brown University mass shooting that occurred last week in Providence, Rhode Island, and are investigating a potential link between the school massacre and the murder of an MIT professor, reports The Western Journal. Just two days after the Brown shooting occurred, Nuno Loureiro, who taught plasma physics at MIT, was shot at his home Monday in Brookline, Massachusetts. He later died of his injuries. During the shooting at Brown, two students were killed and nine others were wounded after the gunman opened fire Saturday afternoon inside a campus classroom during final exams. The male suspect, who is 5'8” with a stocky build, escaped from the building. Army officer once ousted by COVID shot mandate now leads reintegration efforts On October 2, 2025, U.S. Army Colonel Kevin Bouren was administered the oath of office by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, formally returning Bouren to active duty. The event concluded his three-year separation from the Army, a period initiated by the Department of Defense's 2021 COVID-19 shot mandate, reports the U.S. Army's Communication Office. Bouren, a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and an officer with multiple advanced degrees, had a promising career trajectory that included an assignment to the Joint Staff. In 2021, his military service was interrupted after his request for a medical exemption from the COVID shot mandate was denied. During his time away from the Army, Bouren made an unlikely career move. He began working in Christian filmmaking as a co-producer and co-founder of Set Shepherds, managing logistics for films he worked on, while also mentoring the cast and crew as a chaplain. It allowed him to apply his leadership experience in a non-military context while integrating his Christian faith. Bouren said, “As the set chaplain, getting to lead morning devotionals and minister to the cast and crew was wonderful.” In early 2025, when the call for COVID reinstatements came, he said, "God called me to military service, and there was nothing that was going to get between me and going back in the Army. I felt like I had a lot left to offer." After his formal return, Bouren was designated the Army's COVID Reinstatement Task Force Lead. He said, “Our warriors of conscience shouldn't have to navigate this alone. We're here to … support them through every step … after they were “unlawfully separated.” Chick-fil-A embraces and celebrates homosexual marriage And finally, Christian leaders say Chick-fil-A has waffled on homosexual faux marriage and diversity, equity and inclusion policies, reports Christian talk show host Todd Starnes. More than a decade ago, Christians across the nation rallied to defend the beloved fast-food restaurant chain after homosexual faux marriage activists declared war. They tried to put Chick-fil-A out of business after Dan Cathy, the son of founder Truett Cathy said in 2012 that marriage is between one man and one woman. Sadly, there's been a cultural shift at Chick-fil-A. An Orem, Utah Chick-fil-A franchise recently posted photos on its Facebook page celebrating the faux homosexual marriage of two men complete with photos of the gushing grooms. Leviticus 18:22 says, “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” Family Research Council called out Chick-fil-A accusing the company of duplicity. In a column in The Washington Stand, they wrote, “More than anything, what should frustrate loyal customers is that — unlike the secular corporations that promoted this agenda for decades without apology — Chick-fil-A built a business model based almost entirely on faith. And frankly, that means they should be held to a higher standard. Yes, there are local operators with diverse objectives and opinions, but for the sake of the company's broader character, those individual franchises should be held to a moral code that reflects Chick-fil-A's stated beliefs. At the very least, the vice president of DEI should be reassigned to support the Cathys' original mission, and the cancer of diversity, equity, and inclusion should be eradicated from headquarters.” The Family Research Council added, “Unlike Target or Anheuser-Busch, this company intentionally made religion a part of the chain's identity. So, it's a point of legitimate hurt and disappointment that [Chick-fil-A] keeps profiting from its Christian reputation, only to turn around and sell out those same values. Americans expect that from Nike. They expect it from Starbucks. They believed Chick-fil-A was different — and they continue to be wrong.” In recent years, Chick-fil-A stopped donating to the Salvation Army and to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes after pressure from the far-left. They also funneled $230,000 to Covenant House, an organization that hosts Drag Queen Story Hours. Conservatives were in disbelief — so much so that The Federalist felt the need to spell it out in a headline that read: “Yes, Chick-fil-A Really Is Funding a Group that Hosts Drag Queen Story Hours.” And Chick-fil-A ruffled lots of feathers when they hired a vice president of DEI. Christian talk show host Todd Starnes  said, “Traditional values have been taken off the menu at Chick-fil-A – just like the chicken salad sandwich and coleslaw.” Send your letter of objection to Susannah Frost, Chick-fil-A President, 5200 Buffington Road, College Park, GA 30349.  You can reach Chick-fil-A online through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com, and by calling Chick-fil-A between 9:00am and 10:00pm ET, Monday through Saturday, at 866-232-2040..

Are sins related to homosexuality worse than other serious sins? You might think so from how the Church and many well-meaning believers address the topic. Too often, people experiencing same-sex attraction are treated like modern-day lepers. So how should we actually talk about it and how do we support those who struggle?What can their experiences teach us about our own wounds and the ways human longing can be misdirected? Therapist Michael Gasparro and ministry leaders Andrew Comiskey and Kim Zember share how their past struggles with same-sex attraction became a path to deeper healing and intimacy with God.In this episode, you'll discover more about who you are, how to live compassionately, and how God designed our bodies and relationships for healthy, life-giving intimacy.Michael's channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkD3oHy6WeEKim's ministry: https://boldlybeloved.com/Andrew's ministry: https://www.desertstream.org/Join our new Patreon community! https://patreon.com/lilaroseshow - We'll have BTS footage, ad-free episodes, and early access to our upcoming guests.A big thanks to our partner, EWTN, the world's leading Catholic network!

Breaking the Chains of Wrongful ConvictionsIn this moving episode, we sit down with three men who know the unbearable cost of injustice—Larry Darnell Smith, Mark Craighead, and Lamarr Munson—each of whom spent years behind bars for crimes they did not commit. Their stories reveal the deep cracks in America's criminal legal system, the trauma of losing years to wrongful imprisonment, and the spiritual strength it takes to rebuild life after being exonerated.Together, they speak truth to power—shedding light on the systemic failures that continue to cage the innocent and the urgent need for reform, compassion, and truth. This episode is more than testimony; it's a call to collective awakening and a reminder that freedom is not just the absence of bars, but the presence of justice.***Turning A Moment Into A Movement Podcast MISSION:To bring awareness, organize, and create content that will be a resource that will aide families, communities, and those seeking Justice for WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS and Injustice. ...and advocating for Justice & Exoneration for GERARD HAYCRAFT. change.org/Justice4Gerardhttps://linktr.ee/turningamomentintoamovementTurning A Moment Ino A Moment Team:-Jay Love Host: Founder and Creator of Turning A Moment Into A Movement, The Justice for Gerard Movement, to learn more about The Justice for Gerard Movement go to: ⁠www.change.org/Justice4Gerard⁠Executive Board member of Michigan Coalition of Human Rights, G100 Prison Reforms & Reintegration Global Advisory Council Member-Rev.

On this week's Truth to Power, we tackle the issue of higher education's role in reintegrating the formerly incarcerated into society. On Monday, Sept. 29th, at the University of Louisville's Ekstrom Library, the UofL Liberal Studies program presented this event on "Reimagining Public Safety: Transforming Public Universities into Pathways of Reintegration and Repair" with philosopher and higher education leader Dr. Brady Heiner, the Founder and former Executive Director (2016-2022) of Project Rebound at Cal State Fullerton (https://www.fullerton.edu/rebound/). Dr. Heiner was also the Founding Executive Director and Executive Committee Chair of the CSU Project Rebound Consortium (2019-2023), which provided leadership and oversight for the statewide expansion of Project Rebound programs across eighteen CSU campuses. In this public lecture, Dr. Heiner argued that public universities must be reimagined as civic infrastructures of care, accountability, and belonging. Drawing on his experience building and scaling programs that support thousands of formerly incarcerated students across 18 campuses in the California State University system, Heiner outlines how universities can repair social dislocation, reduce incarceration, and rebuild communities harmed by punitive and extractive systems. On Truth to Power each week, we bring you community conversations like you won't hear anywhere else! Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 4pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at https://www.forwardradio.org.

What if loyalty, not rebellion, was the default position in revolutionary British North America? It's easy to forget that before 1776, most colonists identified as proud Britons. They didn't see themselves as future Americans or revolutionaries; they saw themselves as subjects of a global empire. And in the colony of Georgia, many clung to that identity longer than we might expect. Greg Brooking, a historian of the American Revolution in the South and a high school history and social studies teacher, joins us to explore the American Revolution in Georgia with details from his book From Empire to Revolution: Sir James Wright and the Price of Loyalty in Georgia.

From jazz to Jane Austen and in between, this season we'll focus on the ways literature and the arts can refresh and challenge our inner lives—and connect us with the Creator of the good, the true, and the beautiful.Guided by theologian and musician David Bailey and concert pianist and chamber musician Mia Chung, this episode explores the concept that music involves mutual support, balance, and give and take among musicians to create a cohesive experience.And we reflect on how Christian communities can apply these principles of collaboration and harmony to create faith communities that are transformative:To the extent that the arts can actually cultivate that practice of incorporating the right hemisphere and in communication with the left, it's always together, you know, they're, complimentary. I think we can benefit each other in terms of community formation, but even benefit our own intellectual lives and the amount of joy we experience living in this world. - Mia Chung If this work resonates with you, please consider joining the Trinity Forum community as a society member.This podcast is an edited version of our Online Conversation recorded in June, 2024.

In this episode, the host republished an interview with guest Robbie Holz to highlight an important discussion about the secrets of Aboriginal healing. Robbie delves into her late husband Gary's transformative journey into the Australian Outback, where he sought healing from multiple sclerosis through Aboriginal spiritual practices. She shares how the Aboriginal philosophy intertwines the body, mind, and spirit for holistic healing. Robbie also recounts her own healing experiences and the profound lessons learned from the Aboriginal people she met. Together, they explore emotional and spiritual alignment, highlighting the significance of letting go of negative emotions and embracing higher frequencies of love. The episode also touches on the role of guardian angels, the power of willingness, and the importance of self-love in one's healing journey. About Robbie: Robbie Holz is an internationally respected healer and medium, frequent media guest and an author of the award-winning books read in 43 countries: "Secrets of Aboriginal Healing" and "Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening." Robbie's life was drastically altered in 1985. After a difficult 36-hour delivery, while giving birth to her child, Robbie was given a blood transfusion to "perk her up faster".  Unfortunately the transfusion was tainted with Hepatitis C, a disease often referred to as the silent killer. Like a Trojan horse, the virus hid in her body--until it confidently and openly declared war seven years later. Robbie was in for the fight, and spiritual awakening, of her life. Due to her reaction to the experimental Hepatitis treatment, Robbie developed fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, temporary brain damage, and became bedridden for 7 months. Since Western medicine was no longer able to help her, Robbie set out to find alternative ways to survive and recover. She ultimately healed herself of Hepatitis C, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and treatment-induced temporary brain damage, described in her award-winning memoir Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening. Her latest book is "Angels in Waiting: How to Reach Out to Your Guardian Angels and Spirit Guides." The companion guidebook is "Vibrant Living: Braving the Pandemic with Help from Your Guardian Angel."

Dr. Sina McCullough possessed every credential that should have saved her—PhD in nutrition, functional medicine training, master herbalist certification. Instead, she was dying. Too weak to hold a cup. Watching her children from the floor because she couldn't stand. When twenty specialists across two decades dismissed her suffering as "all in your head," this elite-trained scientist made a desperate plea that shattered everything. What happened next defies every principle of conventional healing.Today, Dr. McCullough is a disease reversal expert, author of Hands Off My Food and Beyond Labels, co-host of the Beyond Labels Podcast, creator of the Go Wild healing program, and health columnist for the Epoch Times.

In this poignant episode, we discuss the challenges faced by veterans as they transition back to civilian life, touching on topics such as the lack of training for reintegration, the mental health struggles, and the physical effects experienced by many after service. The episode delves into how military training prepares individuals for combat but often fails to address the return to civilian life, leaving some in a perpetual state of fight or flight. Our guest opens up about a pivotal moment triggered by a podcast episode, highlighting the forgotten aspect of deprogramming the combat mindset post-service. We explore various treatments available for veterans, from stellate ganglion block procedures to magnetic therapies, while acknowledging the absence of a one-size-fits-all solution for issues like PTSD and long-term TBI effects. Join us as we discuss the need for systemic changes within the VA system and military training protocols, the importance of community and support among veterans, and the crucial issue of rising veteran suicide rates. This episode serves as a call to action for better resources and more substantial support for those who have served. Our conversation emphasizes the importance of reaching out and checking in with those who have served, offering hope, understanding, and a reminder that they're not alone in their battles after service. If you're a veteran or know someone struggling, tune in for insights and solidarity, and remember the lifeline available through veteran support channels. Call 988 if you need assistance with the crisis hotline. ____________ Please leave us a review on Apple/Spotify Podcasts: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mentors-for-military-podcast/id1072421783 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3w4RiZBxBS8EDy6cuOlbUl #mentors4mil  #mentorsformilitary Mentors4mil Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Mentors4mil Patreon Support: https://www.patreon.com/join/Mentors4mil  Intro music "Long Way Down" by Silence & Light is used with permission.
