In this Christmas Eve solo episode, I shift gears from our recent focus on online safety and talk about one of the most common—and painful—issues I see in long-term marriages: roommate syndrome. That quiet drift where intimacy fades, connection feels awkward, and marriage starts to feel more like co-parenting logistics than a romantic partnership. If you've ever laid in bed next to your wife feeling disconnected, unwanted, or unsure how things got this way, this episode is for you. I share my own experience falling into roommate syndrome after years of marriage, kids, exhaustion, and unmet expectations. We talk about resentment, covert contracts, why nagging is often a cry for connection, and how most men were never taught how attraction actually works in marriage. I also explain why marriage—like jiu-jitsu or any skill—requires training, intentional effort, and doing what most men aren't willing to do if you want a relationship that's truly on fire. Timeline Summary: [0:00] What roommate syndrome feels like when intimacy has faded. [1:39] Why so many marriages slowly slip into "friend zone" dynamics. [2:02] The statistic that 57% of married couples experience this season. [2:28] How resentment, logistics, and exhaustion kill connection. [3:07] Closing out the online safety series and shifting topics. [3:50] Why Larry chose to release this episode on Christmas Eve. [4:26] Introducing roommate syndrome as a core marriage issue. [5:03] Larry's 22-year marriage and personal experience with disconnection. [6:17] How kids, work, and busyness slowly erode intimacy. [6:53] When sex starts to feel transactional or obligatory. [7:13] Why "nagging" is often a bid for attention and being seen. [7:33] Sitting on opposite ends of the couch scrolling instead of connecting. [7:56] Covert contracts and resentment in marriage. [8:17] Why solving instead of listening makes wives feel unseen. [8:56] Awkward date nights and avoiding real conversations about intimacy. [9:18] A client story that began with signed divorce papers. [9:41] How real change happens when a man does the work. [10:15] Why becoming the man you're meant to be changes everything. [10:57] Marriage requires training just like work or martial arts. [11:14] Understanding attraction and speaking the right "currency" in marriage. [11:51] Loving your spouse the way they receive love. [12:11] Introducing the Roommates to Soulmates live course. [12:56] Creating confidence, attraction, and intimacy without neediness. [13:17] Why uncommon marriages require uncommon effort. [13:38] The reality that only 10–12% of marriages feel "on fire." [14:03] Rejecting the belief that passion naturally dies over time. [14:32] Marriage as a skill set that can be learned and mastered. [15:05] Course details, limited spots, and next steps. [15:25] Christmas message and encouragement to live legendary. Five Key Takeaways: Roommate syndrome doesn't happen overnight—it's the result of neglecting connection, intimacy, and intentional effort. Resentment grows when expectations go unspoken and needs are assumed instead of communicated. Attraction in marriage is a learned skill, not something that automatically sustains itself over time. Men must lead attraction with confidence, not needy or transactional energy. Exceptional marriages are uncommon because they require uncommon effort, training, and intentional action.

The Fathers do not flatter us here. They speak with a severity that at first wounds, then heals, if we allow it. They do not treat resentment as a minor flaw of temperament or a passing emotional reaction. They name it for what it is: a poison that slowly erodes the soul's capacity to remember God. Abba Makarios goes straight to the heart of the matter. To remember wrongs is not simply to remember events. It is to allow those events to take up residence within us, to become a lens through which everything is filtered. The tragedy is not primarily that we remain hurt. It is that the remembrance of God grows faint. The mind cannot hold both rancor and divine remembrance at the same time. One displaces the other. When resentment is cherished, prayer becomes difficult, then hollow, then distorted. The heart turns inward and begins to feed on its own injuries. The Fathers are unsparing here because they know how subtle rancor is. Other sins shock us into repentance. A lie, a fall, a moment of weakness often leaves the soul groaning almost immediately. But rancor settles in quietly. It eats and sleeps with us. It walks beside us like a companion we no longer question. Abba Isaiah and the Elder of the Cells both know this danger. Resentment does not merely coexist with spiritual life; it corrodes it from within, like rust consuming iron. The soul grows hard while imagining itself justified. And yet, alongside this severity, there is a startling tenderness. The Fathers do not say that healing comes through argument, vindication, or emotional catharsis. They prescribe something far more humbling and far more powerful: prayer for the one who has wounded us. Not a feeling of goodwill, not an internal resolution, but the concrete act of standing before God and interceding. Again and again the teaching is the same. Pray for him. Pray for her. Force yourself if you must. Obey even when the heart resists. The story of the brother who obeyed the Elder and prayed is quietly miraculous. Nothing dramatic happens. There is no confrontation, no apology demanded, no psychological analysis. Within a week, the anger is gone. Not suppressed. Extinguished. Grace works where the will yields, even reluctantly. The healing is not self-generated. It is given. The account of the two brothers under persecution reveals just how serious this is. One accepts reconciliation and is strengthened beyond his natural limits. The other clings to ill will and collapses under the same torments. The difference is not courage or endurance. It is love. Grace remains where love remains. When rancor is chosen, protection is withdrawn, not as punishment, but because the soul has closed itself to the very atmosphere in which grace operates. St. Maximos names the interior mechanism with precision. Distress clings to the memory of the one who harmed us. The image of the person becomes fused with pain. Prayer loosens that bond. When we pray, distress is separated from memory. Slowly, the person is no longer experienced as an enemy but as a suffering human being in need of mercy. Compassion does not excuse the wrong. It dissolves its power. What is perhaps most astonishing is the Fathers' confidence that kindness can heal not only the one who was wounded, but the one who wounds. Be kind to the person who harbors resentment against you, St. Maximos says, and you may deliver him from his passion. This is not naïveté. It is spiritual realism. Demons feed on mutual hostility. They lose their dwelling place when humility and gentleness appear. Foxes flee when the ground is no longer hospitable. St. Ephraim's image is unforgettable. Rancor drives knowledge from the heart the way smoke drives away bees. The heart was made to gather sweetness. When bitterness fills the air, nothing can remain. Tears, prayer, and the offering of oneself like incense clear the space again. This teaching is beautiful because it is honest. It does not minimize the pain of insult or harm. It is challenging because it leaves us without excuses. We cannot claim prayer while nursing grudges. We cannot claim suffering for Christ while secretly rejoicing at another's downfall. The path offered is narrow and costly, but it is also liberating. Resentment chains us to the past. Kindness loosens the chain. Prayer opens the hand. Grace does the rest. --- Text from chat during the group: 00:04:55 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 332 Section B Hypothesis XLII Volume II 00:11:28 Fr.

For many of us, 2025 has been quite a year. And believe it or not, in just a few days, we will move into a new year, with a fresh new calendar. So the question for us is, what are we carrying with us? What are we stuck in or with that doesn't really serve us? Are we prepared to move into the new year, or will we stay stuck in 2025? “Ye though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I need not stop and build a condo.” You might have heard that expression before. Consider that the “valley of the shadow of death” may very well not refer to physical, but emotional death. Resentment, regret, anger, fear, all keep us from expressing and experiencing all the good that life has for us, because, and you might have heard this before, what we focus on expands. At any point, we can put down the hammer we are using to “build the condo,” release what no longer serves us, and keep moving through the valley.
In this powerful and paradigm-shifting conversation, Darin Olien sits down with Dr. Mindy Pelz to dismantle everything we've been told about menopause, hormones, aging, and women's power. This is not a conversation about "fixing" women — it's about understanding a profound neurological, biological, and evolutionary transition that has been misunderstood, pathologized, and silenced for decades. Together, they explore why menopause is not the end of vitality, but the beginning of leadership, clarity, and sovereignty — and why reclaiming this transition could fundamentally reshape families, culture, and the future of women's health.

Send us a textHello, hello. I am Dimple Thakrar, and welcome back to Beyond the Words.Today, we are exploring something beautifully simple and deeply transformative. Your soul's word. The one word that lives at the centre of who you are and shows you how to live, give, and love in alignment.In this episode, I invite you to slow down and go inward. To ask your soul a quiet question: What is my word? It might be love, kindness, joy, generosity, or service. There is no thinking required. The first word that arrives is usually the truth.I share how living from your soul's word changes everything, especially the way you give to others. When you fill yourself first, when you live from overflow rather than obligation, your relationships soften. Resentment fades. You stop over giving, over explaining, and over stretching yourself thin.We explore why giving from a half empty place leads to frustration and disappointment, and how other people's reactions often mirror where we are not honouring ourselves. This episode is an invitation to take responsibility for your fullness without guilt.I also share a simple decision making tool that brings clarity and calm. A three step check in that helps you move through life with ease rather than confusion. And we talk about the power of presence. How to hold space for someone you love without absorbing their emotions or losing yourself in the process.This is a conversation about self respect, emotional maturity, and living in alignment with your truth.Episode SummaryDimple explores the concept of the soul's word and how it acts as an inner compass for aligned living. She explains the difference between giving from overflow and giving from obligation, and how resentment is often a sign of self abandonment.She introduces a simple decision making framework based on three questions that must all be answered with a yes. By learning to ask what is good for you first, decisions become clearer and relationships become cleaner.The episode also touches on the art of holding space through presence. Dimple shares how staying grounded allows others to process emotions safely without you taking them on as your own.Key TakeawaysYour Soul's Word Is Your CompassIt reveals how you are meant to live and give.Overflow Changes EverythingWhen you are full, giving becomes clean and resentment disappears.Resentment Is InformationIt often points to where you are not honouring yourself.Clarity Comes From Self Check InAligned decisions require honesty with yourself first.Presence Is PowerfulYou can hold others with compassion without carrying their emotions.Thank you for joining me today. If this episode resonated with you, please leave a review or share it with someone who is ready to live with more alignment and ease. I always love hearing from you, so come and connect with me and share your reflections.Until next time, keep choosing yourself and stay true to your heart. God bless.Resource LinksWebsite: https://dimpleglobal.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dimple.thakrarInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dimplethakrar/ Dimple Thakrar Resource Links: Website: https://dimpleglobal.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dimple.thakrarInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dimplethakrar/

Worksheet: Drawing Your Lines BoundariesImagine living in a house with no walls, no doors, and no fences. Anyone could walk in at any time—tracking mud on your carpet, eating your food, or sleeping on your couch without asking. You'd feel exposed, anxious, and exhausted. For many people in recovery, this is exactly how they treat their emotional lives. They leave doors wide open, letting people walk all over their time, energy, and peace of mind because they don't know how to build fences.Download The WorksheetIn this episode of The Addicted Mind Plus, hosts Duane Osterlind and Eric Osterlind tackle one of the most critical skills for protecting your recovery: setting healthy boundaries. If you've ever felt that knot in your stomach when someone asks for something you don't want to give—your time, your money, your emotional energy—and heard yourself saying "yes" anyway, this episode is for you.The painful truth is that when we don't set boundaries, we accumulate resentment. And as the saying goes in recovery rooms everywhere, "resentment is the number one offender." It leads directly to stress, emotional chaos, and eventually relapse. If you can't protect your space, you can't protect your sobriety.But why is saying "no" so terrifying, especially in early recovery? Duane and Eric explore the deep fears behind our inability to set limits—the fear of rejection, abandonment, and disappointing others. For many of us, especially those with childhood trauma, we learned early on that we had to perform for our caretakers to receive love. Setting boundaries felt dangerous then, and it still feels dangerous now.Using insights from the evidence-based Seeking Safety Model, developed specifically for people dealing with both trauma and addiction, the hosts break down what healthy boundaries actually look like. They're not rigid walls that shut everyone out—they're more like gates or fences. You get to decide who comes in and who stays out. You get to teach people how to treat you.The episode covers three essential types of boundaries: physical boundaries (your personal space and body), emotional boundaries (protecting your feelings and not taking responsibility for others' emotions), and time/energy boundaries (protecting your schedule and preventing burnout). As Brené Brown famously said, "Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves even when we risk disappointing others."But knowing you need boundaries and actually setting them are two different things. Duane and Eric provide a simple but powerful formula for expressing your needs without starting a fight. Using "I statements," you can communicate clearly: "I feel [emotion] when you [specific behavior], and I need [specific request or limit]." Instead of attacking someone by saying, "You're so annoying, stop talking about my past," you might say, "I feel uncomfortable and triggered when you bring up my past substance use in casual conversation. I need us to agree that we won't talk about this unless I bring it up first."The key mindset shift? You're not controlling the other person—you're protecting yourself. A boundary isn't about forcing someone to stop their behavior; it's about what you will do if they cross your line. If a friend pushes you to have "just one drink," your boundary might mean saying, "I think it's time for me to leave."This episode comes with a free downloadable worksheet that breaks down the "I statement" formula and gives you space to script out your boundaries before you have to say them out loud. Because as Duane reminds us, when we don't make our boundaries clear ahead of time, our feelings get in the way—guilt, fear, and shame can make our boundaries collapse.Remember: good fences make good neighbors, and great boundaries make for solid recovery.The danger of no boundaries: How leaving your emotional life wide open leads to resentment, stress, and relapseWhy saying "no" feels terrifying: Understanding our deep fears of rejection, abandonment, and disappointing othersThree types of essential boundaries: Physical, emotional, and time/energy boundaries that protect your recoveryThe "I statement" formula: A simple but powerful tool for expressing boundaries without attacking othersBoundaries vs. walls: Learning the difference between healthy gates that let the right people in and rigid barriers that isolate youProtecting yourself, not controlling others: Understanding that boundaries are about what YOU will do, not forcing others to changeSelf-respect as a recovery skill: Why setting boundaries is actually an act of self-love, not selfishnessTimestamp[00:00:40] - The house with no walls: Why living without boundaries leaves you exposed and exhausted[00:03:00] - That knot in your stomach: Recognizing when you're saying "yes" but feeling resentful[00:04:30] - Why boundaries protect sobriety: How resentment becomes the number one offender leading to relapse[00:06:00] - The three types of boundaries: Physical, emotional, and time/energy protection explained[00:09:00] - The practical formula: Learning the "I feel/when you/I need" boundary-setting statement[00:12:30] - The crucial mindset shift: Understanding you're protecting yourself, not controlling others[00:14:00] - Your two-step action plan: Identifying where you need boundaries and scripting your "I statements"See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if the very thing draining your energy isn't your to-do list… but your tolerance list?In this eye-opening episode, George flips the script on the usual productivity talk and gets real about the silent chaos we allow in our lives. From draining clients to leaky boundaries, what you tolerate becomes what you teach. And today, you'll discover how to reclaim your power, not by doing more, but by tolerating less.This powerful rerun from the Reset in 20 series isn't about adding new strategies, it's about subtracting the ones that are misaligned. What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why misalignment doesn't come from what you do, but what you allowHow tolerating small misfires leads to big resentmentThe ripple effect of values (or lack of them) across your team and businessA single journaling question that will reveal what needs to change now Key Takeaways:✔️You're not what you do, you're what you tolerate. That applies to your team, your offers, your habits, and yourself.✔️Resentment is often self-created. We don't get drained by others, we get drained by saying yes when we mean no.✔️The clearest standards are the ones we model. Your team and your clients won't rise above the example you set.✔️One powerful question to sit with: “What are you resentfully tolerating instead of actively celebrating?”✔️Three values, standards, or principles can realign your entire environment.

Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sTM5eS2K4YWhere does your resentment come from? How does it change your decisions, and how do we let this baggage go for good?!As black sheep, resentment is different for us. We fell into it at such a young age that it easily becomes a part of our identity. You see yourself as cynical, realistic, or hopeless. You don't see much of a future for yourself, or if you do, it seems bleak or unfulfilling. Everyone's life seems easier than yours, and you assume they're just lucky and you're just cursed. You carry a chip on your shoulder and feel like an outcast.These are small ways resentment manifests in everyday life. But even deeper, it's keeping you from your freedom and peace of mind.As I say in this podcast, we all have power. So are you giving your power to your family, your haters, your bad habits? Or are you using it to free yourself from the limitations that keep you stuck and unfulfilled?Find all links to resources here: https://www.blacksheepexperience.com/quick-linksNAMES OF RESOURCES MENTIONED:Bye-Bye Binary Thinking WorkbookThe Worthiness BlueprintSelf-Worth Coaching Session

Every week on Instagram we host “Ask Us Anything” question boxes… and every week we're hit with hundreds of incredible questions we can't possibly get to in Stories. So today we're pulling back the curtain and taking some of those unanswered Qs and going deep — giving you the nuance, context, tips, reassurance, and real-talk sex ed you wish you got in health class. This episode is a true mixed bag: libido, orgasm, aging, menstrual phases, mismatched styles, swelling, simultaneous orgasms… the works. If you've ever wondered, “Is this normal?” the answer is probably in here.
How would your relationships shift if you protected your peace as much as your plans? The holidays can bring out the best—and the most complicated—in our relationships. In this episode of Chasing Brighter, Jessica and Kelly unpack the emotional landscape of the season: the overstimulation, the resurfacing of old roles, the quiet aches of loneliness or grief, and the pressure to “show up” perfectly. Instead, they offer a grounded, compassionate approach to connection. Together, they explore how small, intentional moments can nurture deeper relationships, why boundaries are essential for emotional well-being, and how authenticity can transform how we engage with the people we love. This conversation is an invitation to slow down, protect your peace, and reconnect in simple, meaningful ways. Inside This Conversation: December can highlight loneliness, grief, or unresolved tension. Our nervous system is overstimulated during the holidays. Old family roles can resurface, impacting emotional dynamics. Choosing small, meaningful interactions fosters connection. Boundaries protect connection and emotional well-being. Resentment builds when we overcommit ourselves. Five minutes of focused attention can create real connection. Connection doesn't have to be big to be meaningful. Show up authentically in your relationships. Simple practices can support your nervous system during busy times.

The holidays can stir up more than joy—they can activate old wounds, grief, and loneliness we don't always talk about. In this episode, Laura gently explores why this season can feel heavy, how family systems and sensory memories pull us back into old roles, and why grief shows up in so many forms. With grounding tools and compassionate guidance, she invites you to move through the holidays with more honesty, choice, and kindness toward yourself. This episode is a soft place to land if the season feels tender.
There is a remarkable clarity in these sayings and stories a piercing simplicity that both unsettles and consoles. The Evergetinos places before us the most difficult and necessary truth. The evil done to us is not a detour on the spiritual path but the path itself. Wickedness does not destroy wickedness. Resentment never cures resentment. Anger never frees us from anger. Only goodness that is unmerited and uncalculating has the power to unmake what evil intends to build. It is a truth we often admire in abstraction and dread in practice. The Fathers do not theorize about forgiveness. They reveal what forgiveness becomes when enfleshed. A man betrayed unto martyrdom thanks his betrayer for delivering him to blessing. A brother who has been stealing bread from a starving elder receives not reproach but gratitude. The monk who finds his life endangered cries out to warn the very man who led him into danger and would have robbed him. These stories do not soften the challenge but intensify it. The gospel is not a philosophical proposition but a cruciform way of being. And the cross is never abstract. It always has a name and a face and a voice that has wounded us. It is in the seventh story that the Fathers hand us the key for understanding the rest. The one who injures me is not merely an adversary but a physician. The one who slanders or ignores or mocks me reveals the wound of my vainglory. The one who takes what is mine uncovers my greed. The encounter that disturbs my peace does not create the sickness. It unmasks it. To resent the one who exposes it is to reject the medicine of Christ. It is to say to the Healer not this way not through this pain not at this cost. Yet without accepting what is bitter there can be no cure. Such a word lands upon the heart with weight. It does not flatter our natural instincts or offer comforting sentiment. It is a summons to a death of self that cannot be faked and cannot be delayed without consequence. But if these stories demand much they give even more. The elder who kissed the hands of the thief died with the joy of one who knew the road to the Kingdom was paved by the mercy he showed to others. The patriarch who ransomed the man who robbed him knew the sweetness of compassion that does not remember wrongs. The elder who visited his accuser in prison tasted the freedom of one whose heart was no longer governed by injury. There is joy here not the fleeting spark of vindication but the deep quiet illumination that comes when the soul sees that nothing done to us can keep us from the Kingdom if we allow grace to transfigure it. To forgive is not merely to release another. It is to be released. To bless those who curse us is to breathe a different air. To see those who injure us as agents of healing is to discover that the road into God is not guarded by our enemies but escorted by them. The Evergetinos does not give us a map but it reveals the terrain of the heart. It shows that the spiritual life depends less on what happens to us than on how we respond. And in doing so it opens before us not just a path but a promise. Mercy is not only an obligation but a liberation. Love is not only commanded but possible. And the wounds we receive if we accept them in Christ become the very places where the Kingdom dawns. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:17 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 321 00:01:23 Fr.

Keeping it Real During the Holidays: p.s. I Love the Grinch! Patricia (she/her) dives into the emotional and sensory whirlwind of navigating change as an AuDHDer during the holiday season. She unpacks the exhaustion that comes from shifting family dynamics, unpredictable routines, kitten chaos, people coming and going, and the desire to show up with more capacity than she actually has. Patricia speaks candidly about shutdowns, resentment, communication misfires and boundary-setting. This episode invites listeners to honor their own wiring, acknowledge their limits, and give themselves permission to navigate change on their own terms—especially when the world is loud, messy, and demanding far too much. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · The emotional weight of constant change during the holidays · Why autistic and AuDHD nervous systems struggle with unpredictability · How people coming and going can destabilize daily rhythms · Sensory overwhelm from decorations, noise, and social expectations · The shutdown mode that follows too much "peopling" · Resentment that canform when needs aren't communicated directly · That awkward dance between wanting to show up and feeling over capacity · Kitten chaos as both joy and sensory overload · Feeling responsible for everyone's experience (hello, people-pleasing!) · The grief of not feeling safe to voice your values or boundaries · Family conflict and the ripple effects on your emotional regulation · Why inconsistency can be draining for some neurodivergent brains · The need for predictability, routines, and familiar sensory anchors · Internalized pressure to be "easygoing," especially around holidays · The truth-telling wisdom of the body when burnout hits · "Harvest feast" (aka Thanksgiving) recovery mode · Observing subtle family dynamics that others overlook · Using pacing and gentle self-compassion to navigate the season · How even positive changes can be dysregulating · The reminder that honoring your limits is an act of self-love SOUND BITES · "Change really affects me. I overdid it, and now my body is telling the truth." · "Even things that you enjoy can be dysregulating and overwhelming." · "If someone could respond differently, they would—we're not choosing to have difficulty with change." · "Inconsistency is very difficult for me; it's not about the tree, it's about the mismatch." · "I think what I call depression is really resentment for not being direct." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent.

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux examines the historical and evolutionary dynamics between men and women, highlighting women's resentment due to exclusion and the implications of intellectual focus over physical survival. He details the maternal burden tied to dependency in infancy and discusses the distinct survival roles of men and women—where men operate in a meritocracy and women prioritize community and resource distribution. Critiquing political structures, he notes potential pitfalls in women's political influence on meritocracy. Ultimately, he advocates for mutual appreciation to foster deeper connections and societal harmony.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
Creating a partnership in our marriages was the goal when we got married, and yet many of us over the years, end up retreating into a paper marriage, a place where we live in the same space, but we do so as roommates, people who aren't connected. The goal of marriage isn't just to share a house and a washing machine, it's to connect emotionally, to learn how to love another person in a selfless and compassionate way. When we get married with expectations of the other person making us happy and always loving us, we will find it easy to lean out of the relationship and retreat into ourselves, neglecting the relationship. Instead, when we get married with the expectation that we will learn to love cleanly and fully, we will lean in and create a safe space for our partner to do the same. Thanks for listening!

Are the Ten Commandments, God's Law which He Gave to Us, Becoming Irrelevant for America? MESSAGE SUMMARY: Today, are we saying that the Ten Commandments are irrelevant for America? Are the Ten Commandments becoming illegal in America? If so, why? As a nation, we no longer teach or practice the Ten Commandments. We have made it illegal to post the Ten Commandments, which are God's Law to us, on most walls of our courts and government schools. From a spiritual perspective, how can God, the Creator of the Universe, bless a nation which mocks and/or ignores Him? Paul, in Galatians 6:6-7, cautions both us and our governments regarding the mocking of God: “Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”. From a practical perspective, how can a society and a government function when their foundation has been removed? Our form of government was founded on the ethical base of the Ten Commandments. The Ten Commandments were in the thoughts and cultural norms of the people that created our country. TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, everything in me resists following you into the garden of Gethsemane to fall on my face to the ground before you. Grant me the courage to follow you all the way to the cross, whatever that might mean for my life. And then, by your grace, lead me to resurrection life and power. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 100). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Resentment. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Compassion. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5).

What if the love you're giving, and the love you're expecting, aren't the same thing? In this week's episode of The Cutting Room Floor, Neil and Scott wrap up an 11-week journey through men, women, and marriage. They explore what didn't make it into Sunday's sermon, from C.S. Lewis insights, to Greek word studies on love, to the work that needs to be done in every relationship. Together they unpack why fixing our eyes on Jesus is the only way marriage makes sense at all. Challenge: This week, choose one action that demonstrates love or respect, and practice it without expecting anything in return. Hosts: Neil Gregory & Scott Nickell ⸻ What We Discuss The divine drama of marriage and why it can't simply end with "try harder" What "love and respect" actually mean, and how they're misused The four Greek words for love and why agape changes everything Why biblical love feels impossible without Jesus Tough and tender: the two postures every husband must hold Emotional homework for men (and why anger is rarely the real emotion) Niceness vs. kindness and why only one is a fruit of the Spirit How to recognize the Shepherd's voice in a world full of noise What couples should starve and what they should feed in their marriage ⸻ About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky. We believe Jesus came for the lost and the broken, which means there's a place for everyone here. Around here, that means we worship defiantly, speak truth unashamedly, and extend grace generously.

This week, we're exploring what it actually looks like to simplify your holidays—not just by cutting back on decor or gift clutter, but by setting personal boundaries that make the season joyful instead of stressful. If you're navigating complicated expectations, travel pressure, or family disappointment, this episode offers a compassionate and research-backed look at why setting boundaries is healthy, not harsh. What to expect: • Why simplifying the holidays isn't only about traditions—it's about emotional clarity and autonomy • My own story of choosing to not travel during Christmas while our kids are young • What “personal boundaries” really mean—hint: they're choices you make for yourself, not rules you impose on others • Three research-backed benefits of healthy boundaries• A short 5-question checklist to help you decide if a holiday obligation is right for your family this year.

In this episode of Encountering You, Laura Williams explores how a well-known relationship tool — Love Languages— can unintentionally create disconnection when used as a rule instead of a reflection of real love. Through the lens of Healing Our Core Issues, Laura unpacks how our love languages often reveal unmet childhood needs and how genuine connection grows through attunement, not performance. You'll learn: Why the Love Languages framework lacks scientific grounding. How love languages can become transactional or controlling. Why attunement, not technique, builds secure attachment.

After Stalin's death, Mao began to "experiment," resulting in the Great Leap Forward, which aimed to rapidly "catch up and surpass the West" by radically overturning agriculture and simultaneously industrializing. This chaotic effort, including the collectivization of agriculture and communal organization, led to a vast famine that caused the deaths of tens of millions of people.
