Podcasts about Showing Up

Waiting to feel motivated is one of the fastest ways to stall progress. In this episode of The Fitness League, Josh and Joelle break down why showing up—even when you're exhausted, overwhelmed, or off-schedule—is often the most powerful move you can make. We talk about the mindset shift behind "doing it tired," why flexibility beats perfection in every season of life, and how confidence is built through small, repeatable actions—not flawless routines. This conversation is for anyone who feels like life keeps getting in the way of their health goals and is tempted to check out entirely because they can't do things "right." We also share how the foundational principles of health don't change—only how you apply them does—and why adapting your approach is a strength, not a failure. Along the way, we introduce how The Fitness League was built to support real people navigating real life, not ideal circumstances. If you've ever felt like you're behind, burned out, or barely holding it together—this episode is your reminder that progress doesn't require perfect conditions. It just requires showing up.

In today's episode, I'm joined by James Maslow and Justin Guarini for an honest conversation about showing up when conditions are far from perfect. We talk about discipline as a daily decision, managing resentment on the road, and why consistency matters more than circumstance. James shares lessons from touring while sick, building multiple businesses, and protecting routine in chaos. Justin reflects on Broadway, identity, and using perspective to serve others at the highest level, even on off days. Together, we unpack prioritization, non-negotiables, and how mindset, health, and preparation shape long-term success across entertainment, entrepreneurship, and life.

What happens when the promises of progress turn into frustration? When the institutions we've trusted prove unfaithful? Drawing on MLK's lesser-known "three evils" speech and the ancient prophet Jeremiah, this sermon explores what it means to be faithful when everything you've taken for granted is crumbling. It's about surviving Saturday—that disorienting space between disaster and restoration. The core message is simple but uncomfortable: we've mistaken proximity for participation. We say "I go to church" the same way people once chanted "this is the temple of the Lord"—as if showing up could substitute for the harder work of actually listening and changing. Jeremiah's indictment was clear: the people had done everything except the one thing that mattered. They performed religion while ignoring its substance. The invitation is to become "creatively maladjusted" in a world where deceptive words are everywhere. To stop being passive recipients and start actively making meaning. To ask yourself: where, when, and how will you actually listen?

Ep. 232 I'm setting the tone for this episode the same way I begin my own practice — slowing down, lighting Palo Santo, pulling oracle cards, and coming back to myself. In this conversation, I'm sharing what intention-setting really looks like when life interrupts your routines and pulls you back toward comfort. After my Ayahuasca retreat in Costa Rica, my spiritual practices deepened — but I'll be honest, staying consistent hasn't always been easy. And that's exactly why this episode matters. The oracle cards I pulled spoke directly to trust, patience, and resilience. One reminded me (and maybe you) that you're already on the right path — even if it doesn't feel like it yet. Another, The Ever Unfolding Rose, whispered this truth: growth can be beautiful and uncomfortable at the same time.

In this short follow-up episode of Happy Mind Happy Life Podcast, Michelle shares a gentle reminder about what it truly means to show up for yourself—especially during January, when motivation fades and resolutions often fall away. If this year is more about how you want to feel than what you want to achieve, this episode invites you to release judgment, guilt, and pressure, and instead honor where you are with compassion. A calming pause for anyone feeling tired, behind, or overwhelmed, this episode offers a softer, more sustainable way to support yourself in real life.

Leaders Who Create Community: In this episode of Leaders Who Create, host Jason Squires sits down with Dr. Kate Kootstra. She is a community builder, encourager to moms, and passionate advocate for women who often lead from the margins. Kate shares why moms don't just benefit from community, but require it to stay emotionally healthy, spiritually grounded, and equipped to lead well at home and beyond. Together, Jason and Kate explore what a healthy mom-centered community looks like, the barriers that keep moms from showing up even when they need support most, and why guilt, comparison, and insecurity don't have to define the experience. Stick around to the end when the topic shifts to the worst thing Kate has ever found in her car (yes, food was involved). You may not lead a group of moms but this conversation will give you insight on ways you can support moms around you and help to equip the next generation of children.

In this episode, we break down why waiting to feel "ready" is costing you momentum. Let's explore reframing readiness as a decision, embracing imperfect action, and showing up consistently can unlock confidence, visibility and compounded impact. If you've been stuck in planning, overthinking, or perfectionism, this episode is your nudge to start now—right where you are.

Hey Winner, Being consistent without seeing results can quietly wear you down—especially when you're doing your best to stay committed, follow through, and honor the season of life you're in. In this episode, we're talking about what to do when consistency doesn't seem to be paying off. I'm walking you through why effort alone isn't always the answer, the most common places results break down, and how to reset your approach so your consistency actually starts to matter—without pushing harder or burning out. If you've been starting strong and losing steam, or wondering whether you're missing something, this conversation will help you pause, get clarity, and decide your next step with intention.

If there is one thing that burns photographers out faster than almost anything else, it's marketing. What is supposed to feel like connection often feels more like an endless cycle of posting, scrolling, and second guessing… all while the rules keep changing.In this episode, I'm kicking off our Systems Theme by talking about how to build a marketing system that actually feels like connection (and supports your business instead of draining it). We look at why chasing trends and algorithms isn't the answer, and how focusing on trust, local connection, and clear priorities leads to more sustainable growth.You'll hear more about why your marketing goals are much more achievable than you've been led to believe how real life connection can do more heavy lifting than constant online visibility what a "good enough" marketing system actually looks like when you stop trying to do everythingWhen you're done listening, log into the Darkroom to get this week's To Dos and resources, so you can turn these ideas into action!LINKS:Get weekly action prompts + resources from each episode inside The Darkroom; your free podcast companion space. Resources: New to the podcast?

Send us a textIf you feel stuck in your job search even though you are doing all the right things with your resume and LinkedIn, you are not alone. I see this pattern every day with mid-career professionals who are smart, capable, and experienced but still not getting traction in today's market.In this episode, I flip the script on how most people think about career growth and job search at mid-career. Job titles are not destinations. They are outcomes. When you build real career clarity, your value travels with you from one organization to the next, regardless of the title on the door.I walk you through a practical framework I use with my private clients to move them from scattered job searching to selective, strategic career positioning. We talk about how to define the problems you are best positioned to solve, the conditions where you do your best work, how to SHOW UP from service rather than proving, and how to clearly articulate who you help and what you help them do.You will also hear how this kind of clarity changes everything about interviews and recruiter conversations. When you stop trying to prove yourself and start SHOWing UP to contribute, your confidence increases, your message becomes sharper, and decision makers can see exactly where you fit.We also talk about the role of AI in today's job search. AI can help you optimize keywords, but it cannot replace clarity. Clarity is what carries the interview, builds trust, and helps you stand out in a crowded and noisy market.In this conversation, you will learn how to make recruiters' jobs easier by responding quickly, giving clear yes or no answers, and asking what they need next. These small shifts dramatically increase your credibility and momentum.At mid-career, the most powerful question is no longer “Am I enough?” It is “Where am I most useful?” When you answer that, your job search becomes focused, your energy increases, and your value compounds.If you are ready to reduce noise, save time, and target roles where your impact actually matters, this episode will give you the tools and language to do it.If you want help pinpointing where your value belongs next, visit johnneral.com/resources and get the Mid-Career Clarity Code for $43.

In this episode, host Risto Marttinen (George Mason University) is joined by Dr. Ben Williams (University of Melbourne) and Dr. Trent D. Brown (Deakin University) for a wide-ranging conversation about associational life in health and physical education.The discussion centers on Ben and Trent's recently published article in Sport, Education and Society, where they use a collaborative autobiographical narrative inquiry to explore how academic careers become knotted with professional associations, service expectations, institutional reward systems, and broader changes in higher education.Together, we unpack:What professional associations used to mean—and how that has changedThe shifting ethic of service in health and physical educationDeclining membership, rising costs, and questions of valueThe tension between associations as communities and associations as organizationsHow service work is (and is not) recognized by universitiesIssues of privilege, access, time, and representation in associational leadershipWhy many scholars stay involved—and why others quietly step awayThis episode will resonate with physical education teacher educators, sport pedagogy scholars, and higher education faculty who are navigating service expectations while trying to sustain meaningful professional engagement.Rather than offering simple solutions, the conversation invites listeners to reflect on a central question:What do we want professional associations in health and physical education to be—for us and for the next generation of scholars and teachers?Featured ArticleWilliams, B., & Brown, T.

Episode 184: Laurie Anderson The Power of Showing UpWhat if success as a caregiver wasn't about getting everything right, but about showing up again and again?In this heartfelt episode of The FASD Success Show, Jeff Noble sits down with long time community leader and coach Laurie Anderson to talk about what it really means to keep going through the hardest seasons of caregiving with compassion, connection, and calm.Laurie shares her journey from confusion to confidence, what she's learned from years of moderating our 5,000 member FASD community, and how she's redefining success after retirement and decades of advocacy.In This Episode You'll Hear • Why consistency and connection regulate the brain better than perfection • How Polyvagal Theory explains why community calms the nervous system • What success looks like when you measure by regulation, not results • Why rest and recovery are just as important as advocacy and action • How Laurie's story can help you see your own progress even on the hard daysThis conversation is part science, part story, and full of heart.

#306 Guy and I sit down (while the kids are upstairs!) on his podcast "Let It In with Guy Lawrence" to reflect on our 2025—the messy, the profound, and everything in between. We talk about: How we navigate showing up for clients when we're facing our own challenges—Guy facilitating consciousness retreats during intense spiritual experiences, me supporting gut health clients while dealing with rosacea The reality of being practitioners who are also deeply human What it actually looks like to integrate spiritual experiences while parenting two young kids How we support each other through the unfolding (and when we can't fully relate) The balance between doing all the things and actually letting go What we're welcoming into 2026 A real conversation about the paradox of holding space for others while navigating our own transformations.

Welcome back to Pep Talk Friday. In this episode of Raising Confident Girls, Melissa Jones offers a grounding reminder for parents who worry they're not doing enough—especially when their daughters are struggling quietly. She explores how showing up with calm, steady presence can be more powerful than fixing, advising, or saying the “perfect” thing.Melissa speaks directly to the inner critic so many girls carry and reassures parents that this voice isn't a reflection of failure. Instead, it's an opportunity—one where patience, understanding, and simply being there can shape how a daughter learns to speak to herself.Tune in to discover:Why your daughter's inner critic doesn't mean you're falling shortHow your presence—more than your words—helps her feel safe and supportedThe role your calm plays in helping her regulate big emotionsWhy you don't need to be perfect to make a lasting, meaningful impactThis episode is a gentle exhale for parents who feel unseen in the day-to-day work of raising girls. Even on the quiet, invisible days, you are shaping her inner voice in ways that truly matter.If this message feels like something a parent in your life needs to hear, share this episode with them. Sometimes the most powerful support is simply reminding someone: you're already doing enough.Melissa's Links:• Website • Instagram • Facebook• TikTok• LinkedIn

What if your need for control is actually what's keeping you stuck?In this revealing episode of The Big Silence, Karena sits down with licensed therapist, YouTuber, and bestselling author Kati Morton to dive into her most personal book yet: Why Do I Keep Doing This? From toxic independence to people-pleasing as manipulation, Kati unpacks the precarious relationship we have with control—and why trying to control what we can't is the root of so much unhappiness.

This is your reminder that showing up is enough.This episode is for anyone who has been feeling behind, inconsistent, or unsure, yet still chooses to show up.Take this moment for yourself. No rushing. No fixing. Just presence. 

Today, this episode is a brief reflection from me, recorded as a pause in the regular rhythm of the show. Rather than a guest interview, I'm speaking directly to you, my listeners, about the weight of trauma-informed work, the importance of rest, and what it means to show up honestly when the work feels heavy. For survivors, professionals, and advocates alike, this episode is a reminder that healing is not linear, strength is not measured by endurance alone, and slowing down is sometimes the most responsible choice. Regular guest episodes of Sexual Assault Survivor Stories will resume next week.

Today we have Sarah. She is 49 years old and lives in San Diego, CA. Sarah took her last drink on August 6th, 2025.   This episode is brought to you by: Better Help – 10% off of your first month #sponsored   Pick up your copy of Paul's newest book Dolce Vita. You can get it on Amazon, listen to it on Audible or order it at your favorite bookstore today.   Join us on January 10th for the start of our AF Ukelele Course. This course is sponsored by Kala brand ukelele and if you register, you get a code for 10% off an instrument.   [02:00] Thoughts from Paul:   This is the first podcast of the new year and maybe you are a new listener. Paul wants to cover some basics and let you know what we are about.   Recovery Elevator is about quitting drinking. The goal isn't cutting back, moderation or putting the beast back in the cage. It's full send on zero alcohol consumed.   Recovery Elevator is also about embracing that there is no right or wrong way to ditch the booze, just don't do it alone. No explanation needed her, we get it. What you'll find here and in Café RE is there is no judgment. We all know where you are and have been there ourselves.   Recovery Elevator is the podcast, courses, Dry January, sober travel, merch, Instagram and more.   Café RE is the non-profit alcohol-free community – it's the social app for sober people. We've got 25+ chats each week, Accountability Partner pairings, in-house AA meetings, book club, movie club, etc.   [06:27] Paul introduces Sarah:   Sarah is a painter and lives in San Diego with her partner and two daughters, 17 and 19. For fun, she enjoys surfing with her partner, backpacking with her older daughter and loves living on the beach.   Sarah says she grew up in an idyllic childhood. Her parents drank but not to excess. She recalls that she was a worried child with a tendency towards overthinking and had a addictive personality to many things.   Drinking wasn't part of her story while in school. She was on the cross-country team from seventh grade until she was a sophomore in college. After an injury took her out of the sport, she began to participate in parties more. She quickly recognized that drinking took away some insecurities and inhibitions and enjoyed that aspect but realized she couldn't moderate.  Sarah developed a "take it or leave it" attitude towards alcohol but developed an eating disorder. Food became the replacement for alcohol when it came to self-medicating.   After a divorce, Sarah made a new friend that was going through the same things. She confided in him about her eating disorder and he helped her find treatment for it. While in the process of recovering from the ED, she started using alcohol again and would replace meals with beer. Sarah began asking God, "why are we having me have another problem?" She knew she was meant for better things but was having a hard time stopping the addictions.   Sarah used prayer to try and find the help she was after. She began going to AA, listening to podcasts and working herself to try and gain the tools to decide the addiction wasn't an option anymore. She was able to gain some traction but relapsed after several months of sobriety. In spite of being upset about being back at day one, Sarah learned to just keep showing up for herself and others and stopped beating herself up.   Sarah has removed food and alcohol as options for coping. When she needs to get away, she utilizes the beach and the ocean. She enjoys the studio space with her art to help her get out of her head.   Sarah O'Connor Art   Sarah's Instagram   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down We gotta take the stairs back up We can do this.     Café RE RE on Instagram Sobriety Tracker iTunes  RE YouTube  

Josh Foster is an award-winning independent writer, thinker, and farmer in Rigby, Idaho. He is the author of The Last Good Snow Hunt (2024), The Clean Package: A Pioneer Assemblage (2023), and The Crown Package: A Personal Anthology (2022). Josh earned a PHD in literature and creative writing from the University of Houston, a master's of fine arts degree in fiction and nonfiction from the University of Arizona, and an undergraduate degree in English from BYU Idaho. In between his master's degree and PhD, Josh was selected as a Stegner Fellow at Stanford University, one of the most prestigious creative writing fellowships in the world. Josh also earned a minor in Spanish and studied at the University of Guadalajara. In his almost two-decade writing and publishing career, Josh has served in key editorial positions with notable magazines such as Terrain.org, DIAGRAM, and Gulf Coast. Josh now co-operates the creative cooperative and press FOSTER LITERARY with his wife, the poet Georgia Pearle Foster. In this follow up interview with Josh (see Episode 99 for our first interview) we discuss the following: We covered a lot of ground with Josh, which is always great because he's so full of insight. First the farm, as a metaphor for life. Raising a successful crop each year requires daily blood, sweat, and tears. But even when the uncontrollable weather actually cooperates, markets can suddenly change. It's a never ending struggle. But farmers just keep showing up every day. Water is the lifeblood of the farm, and it was fun to hear how Josh is engaging with community members and policy makers to figure out how to allocate water effectively, and potentially grow the supply. And I look forward to reading his upcoming book on water. I also look forward to reading Georgia and Josh's book, Other People's Parties. As Josh said, he often finds himself at the last moment of things and I'm inspired by how he wants to memorialize and preserve the stories that are fleeting. I'm especially excited to both watch the film Bozwreck and read Josh's novel on his cousin Nate Bozung. After the interview, Josh sent me a brief clip of the film, and I was blown away by the beauty and style of the film. I always love talking to Josh because he teaches me about life and humanity. But he also inspires me. Whenever we create things, we never know the impact they may have. But like the farmer, we just keep showing up every day. And even though the world is confusing, violent, and unfair, let's be good to each other, help each other, and be better.

Almost all the benefits of podcasting stem from one thing – and that's consistency. If you publish quality content over a prolonged period of time, you eventually hit a critical mass of episodes you can now call your “back catalogue” – and it's a powerful tool.On this episode of Podcraft, we're going to look at the benefits of this published body of work, which includes the ability for new listeners to binge your content, as well as providing you with a tonne of repurposing options, too.Following up on our previous episode, From Doubt to Determination, we'll also continue to explore the barriers and challenges our Indiepod Legends have faced, as well as how they've overcome them.

It's a new year. Same boardroom. Same seat. But are you the same leader?In this power-packed episode, Kristin Browning challenges the myth that transformation requires complete reinvention. The truth? The best leaders don't overhaul everything in January. They make strategic micro-shifts that create exponential impact.In under 10 minutes, you'll discover: Why consistency got you to the boardroom, but evolution keeps you relevant The three questions every established leader needs to answer in 2026 How to identify the ONE approach that will unlock disproportionate results The trap most leaders fall into (hint: it's treating learning like the finish line instead of the starting block)This isn't about New Year's resolutions or reinventing your values. This is about taking what you already know and leading differently because of it.Perfect for executives, senior leaders, and anyone who's ready to stop collecting leadership advice and start implementing it.

In this episode of Monday Morning Mojo, Phil shares a personal story that highlights a simple truth: being present matters. From a summer water-ski mishap to two phone calls during a time of loss, Phil reflects on how small acts of showing up, whether in person, by phone, or through a message, can make a lasting impact. As we move into 2026, this episode encourages us to be intentional about supporting others in both good times and difficult moments. Showing up is about connection, care, and making people feel valued.

Send us a textAPOLOGIES FOR THE BACKGROUND ROAD NOISE; RECORDED IN TRANSIT.The air feels charged, like a match on the verge of lighting. We're stepping into a year where vision wants motion, and the cosmic weather agrees: Saturn and Neptune move into Aries, and the Fire Horse energy kicks purpose into high gear. That combination points to a rare window where structures can finally serve dreams instead of stalling them. I walk through what that means for your daily choices—how to plan with intention without locking yourself into rigidity, and how to build the kind of rhythm that keeps you grounded while everything speeds up.We explore the shift from shedding to showing up, naming the emotional and practical skills that help you cross the threshold. I share a simple framework for mapping your year that prioritizes divine timing, meaningful milestones, and humane pacing. Then we get specific with a sign-by-sign guide: Aries owning confident self-sufficiency, Taurus stepping into leadership, Gemini reclaiming freedom, Cancer reviving creative flow, Leo quietly building wealth, Virgo embracing rebirth, Libra refining soul-centered partnership, Scorpio receiving emotional restoration, Sagittarius locking into clarity, Capricorn expanding abundance, Aquarius practicing real self-love, and Pisces settling into inner harmony.If you're craving structure that honors your intuition, I've got you. Monthly live classes focus on timely themes like divine timing, the Honey Hub membership layers in small-group support and mini readings, and a monthly reading subscription offers deep, consistent guidance at a friendly rate. This is a year to choose your future on purpose—one aligned action at a time. Press play, map your next move, and share your sign's theme with me.

A reflection on turning 60, returning to school, teaching, and recognizing the many quiet ways we show up for ourselves.

Happy New Year! Rejoice, because a real Jesus has plans to bless real people this year. Read His Word, listen to His voice, and you can prosper in all areas of your life. How do you know that Jesus always shows up for you? Because He went to the cross in your place. Be inspired along with Kellie Copeland on Believer's Voice of Victory by testimonies of God showing up in lives of real people. Kellie shares that, in the same way a mentor always shows up, Jesus is our perfect mentor because He will never leave nor forsake you. That's why we can be confident placing our lives in His hands. As Gloria Copeland said, “Lord, take my life and do something with it.” Let that be your prayer to start the new year.

In this special Celebrate Your Story, I revisit my early years working at St. John's Residence for Boys, a home for boys who couldn't safely live with their families. It was a place where structure created stability and relationships created possibility. At the time, I was a young counselor, learning the job alongside the boys themselves. My days were shaped by schedules, shared meals, hard conversations, and small moments of trust earned over time. St. John's showed me how much consistency matters, and how powerful it can be when a young person knows someone will show up for them, day after day. In this episode, I share stories from life inside St. John's, including the boys who taught me resilience, the mentors who modeled patience and leadership, and the experiences that revealed how belief and guidance can shape a young person's future. These relationships left a mark on me and influenced how I think about responsibility and leadership to this day. This episode reflects on service and the role we each play in creating environments where people can grow. It's a reminder that our stories are formed through relationships — through the people we support, the lessons we pass on, and the communities that help us become who we're meant to be.

In this mini episode, we talk about being seen, the fear of taking up space, and what it feels like to stop staying small just to feel safe. A gentle conversation about visibility, worthiness, and choosing yourself without apologizing.

In this discussion, Mike and Glenn explore the crucial question: "Now what?" as they look ahead to 2026. They delve into how living a life driven by passion and purpose is essential for true success.Key takeaways from the conversation include:The "Work" is the Key: The principle of "Drive," which mirrors the active approach of the AA program, suggests that to elevate your life, you must actively do the work.The Mantra of Success: Embrace the commitment: "If you want what we have and are willing to go to any length to get it," recognizing that success requires unwavering dedication.Action is Everything: The idea that "AA doesn't work" is true only if you don't work the program. Similarly, if you want a better life, you must live a better life.Showing Up is Non-Negotiable: Glenn and Mike agree that simply showing up is a foundational part of "going to any length."Direction through Awareness: Self-awareness is key to understanding your proper direction and requires being open to new experiences.Inspired by The Purpose Driven Life: Drawing inspiration from Rick Warren's book, they advocate for incorporating spirituality and serving others into your plan.Mike and Glenn emphasize that the time for passive wishing is over—it's time to take action to achieve the life you want.

For the holiday week, we're rerunning a classic edition of Weekend Conversations. In this episode, host Robert Glazer and producer Mick Sloan talk about the importance of building credibility with people by showing up, not canceling commitments when it's difficult, and developing a reputation for reliability. Robert and Mick discuss why showing up consistently is becoming increasingly rare, and increasingly valuable, and talk about reliability in personal and professional contexts. ⁠Read The Post Discussed In This Episode: Bad Misses (#482) Thank you to the sponsors of The Elevate Podcast Mizzen & Main: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠mizzenandmain.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Promo Code: elevate20) Shopify: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠shopify.com/elevate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Indeed: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠indeed.com/elevate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Masterclass: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠masterclass.com/elevate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Northwest Registered Agent: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠northwestregisteredagent.com/elevatefree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Homeserve: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠homeserve.com⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Last weekend was filled with terrible news, including a mass shooting in Australia, another at Brown University, and the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife. Mike Erre joins Phil and Skye to discuss these events and why rediscovering the biblical practice of lament is better than just "thoughts and prayers." The Catholic Church has taken a nuanced and principled position on the deportation of immigrants. Why do evangelicals find that so difficult? Then John Ortberg talks with Skye about his latest book, which applies the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous to Christian spiritual formation. It's called "Steps: A guide to transforming your life when willpower isn't enough." Also this week, the U.K. is building a giant Möbius strip for God.
