Rob Wallace continues in our This Is Us series talking about how we are called to have adventurous faith.
We continue in our This Is Us series this week talking about how all have a place to serve in the Kingdom and at Cornerstone!
Paul makes it very clear in his letters that Jesus intended for us to be more than just a community but instead a family that is there for each other apologizing, forgiving, supporting and loving each other through all our trials and joys in life.Frank Spalding and the preaching team at Lincoln Hills Christian Church welcomes all those seeking to know more about the Real Jesus and how to be an active disciple.
From the outside, Chrissy Metz seemed to have it all starring in a hit show, inspiring millions, and radiating confidence but behind the spotlight was a woman navigating the painful realities of childhood trauma, body image struggles, people-pleasing, and the long road to emotional healing.In this heartfelt conversation, Chrissy opens up about the survival patterns she developed as a young girl trying to be “good” enough to be loved and how those patterns followed her into adulthood. She shares her experience growing up in a fractured home, enduring emotional pain in silence, and turning to food as both comfort and protection. Through therapy, spiritual grounding, and creative expression, Chrissy began the deep work of untangling her worth from performance. We explore the cost of being the peacemaker, the fear of being truly seen, and the challenge of letting go of perfection. Chrissy reflects on her journey into acting, the power of being chosen for a role that mirrored her own struggles, and how her latest children's book is helping the next generation talk about emotions that many of us were taught to suppress. This is an honest, soul-stirring episode about the courage it takes to stop performing and start healing from the inside out.__________________Follow/Watch/Listen/Subscribe: Instagram: @rootedrecoverystoriesTiktok: @patrickcusterprojectYouTube: @rootedrecoverystoriesFacebook: @rootedrecoverystoriesWebsite: www.rootedrecoverystories.com__________________Cast:Patrick Custer - HostInstagram: @thepatrickcusterTiktok: @thepatrickcusterYouTube: @thepatrickcusterFacebook: @thepatrickcusterWebsite: https://linktr.ee/patrickcusterChrissy Metz - GuestInsta: @chrissymetzFacebook: @chrissymetzofficialYoutube: @chrissymetzmusic Tiktok: @chrissymetzX: @chrissymetzWebsite: www.chrissymetzmusic.comSpotify: Chrissy Metz__________________Get Help (addiction, mental health/trauma):Promises Behavioral HealthCall: (888) 648-4098Website: www.promises.comInstagram: @promises_bh__________________About Chrissy Metz: Emmy and two-time Golden Globe nominee Chrissy Metz stars on the award-winning NBC series "This Is Us,” winner of the 2018 and 2019 SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series and People's Choice Award for "Favorite New TV Drama.” Chrissy recently starred as Joyce Smith in the hit 20th Century Fox faith-based film, BREAKTHROUGH.

Die Assassinen sind zurück Assassin's Creed Shadows entführt dich in das faszinierende Japan des 16. Jahrhunderts – eine Welt voller Kontraste, in der Kirschblüten auf brutale Schattenkrieger treffen. Die Grafik ist atemberaubend: Sonnenstrahlen brechen durch Bambuswälder, detailreiche Städte erwachen zum Leben, und jeder Schwertstreich fühlt sich wuchtig und echt an. Die Atmosphäre ist dicht und eindringlich – mal still und lauernd, mal explosiv und voller Action. Ubisoft ist hier ein echtes Meisterwerk gelungen: Shadows vereint endlich wieder das Beste aus dem klassischen Assassin's Creed mit frischen Ideen und einer packenden Story. Schleichen, kämpfen, erkunden – alles greift perfekt ineinander. Es fühlt sich nicht nur wie ein echtes Assassin's Creed an – es ist eines der besten der Reihe. Wenn das Sammeln überhand nimmt… … versorgt es eventuell dein Haus mit Strom. Vor allem, wenn du alte Laptop Akkus sammelst. Ein Nutzer aus dem Second Life Storage Forum versagt sein Haus unterdessen komplett mit Solar und Batterien.

Willkommen im Paradise Die Serie Paradise auf Disney+ ist ein fesselnder Politthriller, der mit Spannung, Geheimnissen und einem beeindruckenden Soundtrack überzeugt. Im Mittelpunkt steht Secret-Service-Agent Xavier Collins (gespielt von Sterling K. Brown), der nach dem Mord an Präsident Cal Bradford (James Marsden) in einer unterirdischen Stadt namens Paradise ermittelt. Während er versucht, die Wahrheit aufzudecken, stößt er auf ein Netz aus Intrigen und Verrat, in dem niemand wirklich vertrauenswürdig erscheint. Die Serie besticht durch ihre dichte Atmosphäre und eine komplexe Handlung, die den Zuschauer von Anfang an in den Bann zieht. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der Soundtrack, komponiert von Siddhartha Khosla, der bereits für Serien wie This Is Us bekannt ist. Mit einer Mischung aus Originalkompositionen und neu interpretierten Klassikern wie „Another Day in Paradise“ und „Every Rose Has Its Thorn“ verstärkt die Musik die emotionale Tiefe der Serie und unterstreicht die dramatischen Wendungen. Paradise ist nicht nur ein spannender Thriller, sondern auch ein emotionales Drama, das aktuelle gesellschaftliche Themen aufgreift und den Zuschauer zum Nachdenken anregt. Für Fans von intelligenten, vielschichtigen Serien ist Paradise ein absolutes Muss. Spooky Überwachungsansatz Wlan sind ja Wellen.

I sat down with This Is Us star Chrissy Metz and Nashville songwriter Bradley Collins to talk about their new children’s book, When I Talk to God, I Talk About Feelings. We talked about the power of faith, the importance of self-love, and why helping kids express their emotions early on matters so much. Chrissy and Bradley shared how they had to learn to express themselves as adults because they weren’t taught how as kids—and how that inspired this book. Chrissy also reflected on her time on This Is Us and how being part of such an emotional, beloved show shaped her perspective on empathy, healing, and using your voice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Families Overcoming Trauma – This Is Us NBC's This Is Us has resonated deeply with audiences, largely because of its heartfelt portrayal of family, trauma, and healing. The show masterfully illustrates how each family member carries their own pain while remaining connected through love, resilience, and acceptance. It reminds us that healing isn't about erasing the past—it's about learning to live with it, together. In this episode, I had the honor of speaking with Laura DeKraker Lang-Ree, whose journey is a testament to this very idea. When her daughter, Cecilia, was diagnosed with childhood leukemia at just three years old, Laura searched for guidance—a book, an expert, a roadmap. When she realized that no such book existed, she wrote it herself: The Cancer Parent's Handbook: What Your Oncologist Doesn't Have Time to Tell You. Through her experience, she uncovered the tools and insights necessary not just to survive, but to thrive during an overwhelming and terrifying time. As Laura and I reflected on This Is Us, we found so many parallels between the Pearson family's story and her own. The show depicts the way trauma weaves itself into the fabric of a family, shaping identities and relationships in unexpected ways. It also highlights the power of connection—how, even through grief, loss, and struggle, love can be an anchor. Trauma and the Nonlinear Journey of Healing One of the most powerful elements of This Is Us is its nonlinear storytelling. Much like real-life healing, the past continuously intrudes on the present. The audience is transported through different points in time, seeing how early wounds manifest in adult struggles. We watch as Kevin searches for love and self-worth, Randall seeks meaning in his biological roots, and Kate finds healing through music and motherhood. Their journeys are messy, imperfect, and deeply human. At the heart of the series is a pivotal moment—the loss of Jack Pearson, the beloved yet flawed father figure. The show builds up to this revelation, allowing us to witness how his absence shapes each family member in distinct yet connected ways. In a similar way, families facing trauma must navigate their own nonlinear paths, piecing together meaning and strength as they go. Holding Space for Pain and Hope EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that has three prongs of healing-- the past, the present, and the future. This Is Us reflects this process beautifully, showing how the past and present exist simultaneously, influencing each other in ways we don't always recognize-- impacting the future as well. Laura's story is a profound example of how trauma and hope can coexist. While no parent would ever choose the experience of childhood cancer, Laura chose how her family's story would be written. She didn't deny the pain, but she also didn't let it define their lives. Instead, she created moments of normalcy, love, and connection amid the fear. Defining Our Narrative The final season of This Is Us centers around the decline of Rebecca's health, bringing the family together once more in the face of loss. Yet, rather than being consumed by grief, they embrace their love for one another. It is in these moments—where vulnerability is met with compassion—that true healing and connection happens. This is the lesson Laura embodies: even in heartbreak, loss, and tragedy, life doesn't have to be only about pain. Life can be about something so much more. We can hold space for both sorrow and joy. We can choose to show up, to embrace imperfection, and to construct the narrative that we want to-- one that is rooted in love and family connection. Trauma can break us, or it can unite us. The powerful and aligned message of both Laura's journey and This Is Us is this: we can walk through whatever life brings us with magnanimity, with courage, and with hope. And at some point, I promise, our heartfelt laughs will be there as well! For more information on Laura, visit lauradekrakerlangreebook.com or follow her on Instagram at @laura_dekraker_langree.
Have we ever broken a bone? If so, how did it happen? Has Mocha watched THIS IS US' yet? What TV or movie catchphrase do we use in real life? Are there any objects that you refer to as its brand name rather than the object itself? Would we trade our siblings for a day?

Today's episode is an inspiring example of how to take control of your acting career through strategic thinking and unwavering self-belief. Rob Morgan emphasizes the importance of having a survival job to gain financial stability and the confidence to approach auditions with the mindset of "you need me more than I need you". He encourages actors to own their auditions, presenting their authentic selves and focusing on their understanding of the material rather than trying to fit a mold. Morgan also discusses how his career shifted when he became "offer only" after his role in Mudbound. He stresses choosing projects for their potential for long-term impact, working with established actors to become part of a market that supports a lasting career. He values building a team that understands and supports his vision, and approaches director meetings as a two way street, to see if there is a genuine connection and potential for collaboration. Find out his full circle moment of working as an extra on his first movie with Matthew McConaughey to starring opposite him 30 years later.

Aileen continues our "This Is Us" series with a talk on our intercultural values: All seen, All heard, All healed, All belong.
Sterling K. Brown takes the lead in Paradise, and in the investigation that drives Hulu's new paranoid thriller -- and Rolling Stone's lead TV critic, Alan Sepinwall, is back to discuss both. Do the layered flashbacks work better for this material than for Brown's previous Dan Fogelman project, This Is Us? Does the dumb world-building outweigh the watchable acting? After we talked about how this underground/domed world stacked up against others on TV, we went Around The Dial with Common Side Effects, Mythic Quest, and the latest documentary from the Ken Burns Industrial Complex before Alan carefully constructed a Canon pitch for a Better Call Saul episode. Jennifer Garner won, Don Lemon lost, and what hark through yonder earbud breaks but a Shakespearean Game Time. Pack a bag for Colorado and join us! GUESTS

Hi everyone! Today's episode was such a treat. I have known Alexandra Breckenridge since we were babies in the industry— we did a pilot together called Locust Valley almost 25 years ago. Since then, Alexandra has had an unbelievable career. She played Jessie Anderson on The Walking Dead, Sophie Larson on This Is Us and now she's doing amazing work as Melinda Monroe on Virgin River. We talk about what it takes to build resiliency as an actor and why we both ultimately decided to leave California. I gotta say, she lives on a beautiful farm in Georgia and if you don't already follow her on Instagram, you definitely should. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where producer Jeph and I give an update on the fires in LA and read your pitches for how I can brand a day of the week for Bo-Katan (Fracked-Up Fridays, anyone?).
