Podcasts about Unconditional

Every marriage experiences conflict, tragedies, and adversity. The question is: will you and your spouse allow those hardships to be deal-breakers or heart-makers in your relationship? In this program, Chip dispels the illusion that marriage is a care-free journey, without bumps in the road. He reveals that–contrary to popular belief–challenges and suffering are not signs of trouble in your marriage, but an opportunity to deepen your intimacy with your mate.Introduction:Marriage is an UNCONDITIONAL commitment to an IMPERFECT person.Review:Foundational Truth #1:You can't live this life without the supernatural power of God, so following Jesus personally is the number one priority.Foundational Truth #2:You must choose to love your mate whether you feel like it or not. Foundational Marriage TruthsFoundational Truth #3:We will have ongoing challenges with communication, sex, finances, parenting, and extended family. These issues are not “DEAL BREAKERS,” they are “HEART MAKERS” as we learn to listen, understand, and follow God's path.Key verse:James 1:2-5Foundational Truth #6:I will not consider a divorce as an OPTION and I will never threaten my spouse with divorce.

The prophets and psalmists of lament show us how to find faith and hold on to hope in the time of tears.

Host Dana Skaggs sits down with Abagail McKiernan, founder of the nonprofit HelpLink, to uncover the deeply personal story that inspired her mission. What began as a moment of isolation became a movement rooted in unconditional generosity. Together, they explore how giving without expectation can restore dignity, forge authentic community, and remind us that the kindness we extend often finds its way back when we need it most.

September 28, 2025 Unconditional discipleship to King Jesus is the only faithful and pleasing response to the Gospel. Humble surrender, loyalty and allegiance to the King above any circumstance, person or thing. We have faith in the faithfulness of our King trusting that he gives life and life to the full!

When tackling an important project, it is natural to want to divide all the tasks fairly, so everyone shares the responsibilities and weight of the job. However, in this program, Chip Ingram cautions that while that strategy may be successful in the workplace, it often causes stress, burnout, and resentment at home. Hear what God's Word says about an all-in partnership with your spouse, that is deeply rewarding and life-giving.Fighting lies with truthLie #6:Marriage is a 50-50 proposition. As long as everyone does their part everything will be okay.The truth:Marriage is a 100%-100% proposition. It is an UNCONDITIONAL commitment to an imperfect person. It's giving the other person what they need the MOST, when they DESERVE it the least, at great PERSONAL COST.Key verse:John 13:34-35Lie #7:Marriage shouldn't be this difficult. No matter how hard I work it seems like we always have issues to work through. I really wonder if it's worth it.The truth:Everything of great value requires COMMITMENT, SACRIFICE, and PERSEVERANCE. As my spouse and I face challenges and overcome them, our intimacy and joy will far outweigh our present problems.Key verse:Galatians 6:9Lie #8:I've tried hard to make this marriage work, but it's too far gone. God wants me to be happy and I know He'll understand if I get a divorce.The truth:God HATES divorce. No marriage is beyond repair. If Jesus can raise the dead, He can certainly RESURRECT my marriage.Key verse:Malachi 2:16Broadcast ResourceDownload Free MP3Message NotesAdditional Resource MentionsMarriage Truth Cards Offer"Uninvited Guests" ResourcesConnect888-333-6003WebsiteChip Ingram AppInstagramFacebookTwitterPartner With UsDonate Online888-333-6003

“Parenting is a spiritual path of growth and evolution.”  Have you ever noticed how children have a way of teaching us the deepest truths about life without ever saying a word? In their laughter, their play, their curiosity, and even their tantrums, they mirror back to us who we really are. In this episode of Soul Talk, I share the most important lessons my 2-year-old son has taught me, lessons about love, ego, happiness, and presence. Parenting, I've discovered, isn't just about raising a child. It's a profound spiritual path, one that stretches you, humbles you, and calls you to live with greater integrity and selflessness. From learning that happiness is our true nature, not something we chase, to remembering the sacredness of ordinary moments, I'll take you through the ways fatherhood has transformed me. You'll hear how children act as mirrors for our unhealed wounds, why they copy everything we do, and how their playfulness and curiosity invite us back to a simpler, freer way of living. If you've ever felt weighed down by life's seriousness, struggled to stay present with loved ones, or wondered how to break cycles of generational pain, this conversation will open your heart. Because at its core, parenting and life itself aren't about perfection. It's about choosing love, healing what we've carried, and leaving a legacy of wholeness for the next generation. Real joy isn't in the milestones or the accomplishments. Real joy is in the everyday moments, moments we often overlook until they're gone. And sometimes, it takes the eyes of a child to remind us of that truth. Timestamps: (00:04:23) -  Parenting as another world.  (00:05:39) -  Parenting = spiritual path/ego purification. (00:08:02) -  Selflessness, generational thinking & responsibility. (00:11:14) -  Child as mirror; fruit of inner work.   (00:13:23) - “They copy everything” — integrity & who-you-are matters.   (00:19:16) - Curiosity / non-judgement / in-the-moment emotional release.  (00:21:10) -  Happiness is our nature/stop seeking. (00:24:09) -  Savor ordinary moments; “he will never be this small again.”  (00:26:48) -  Unconditional love / “I'm lovable just the way I am.”  Some questions I ask: What conditions do I put on my happiness? What is parenting really like, beyond what we imagine? How does being a parent purify the ego? Can a man truly become a man without being responsible for another life? How do children reflect the parts of us we haven't healed? How much are kids absorbing from everything we do and say? Am I appreciating the ordinary moments that will never come again? In this episode, you will learn about: Why parenting is one of the most profound spiritual paths. How children mirror our subconscious patterns and unresolved wounds. The importance of integrity, why kids learn more from what we do than what we say. Lessons on play, presence, and embracing life's ordinary moments. How to reconnect with happiness as your natural state of being. The power of healing your own consciousness to gift your children freedom from generational pain.   Get in Touch: Email me at kuteblackson@kuteblackson.com Visit my website: www.kuteblackson.com Resources with Kute Blackson: Kute's Life-changing Path to Abundance & Miracles: https://www.8levelsofgratitude.com Free masterclass: Learn The Manifestation secret to Remove Mental Blocks & Invisible Barriers to Attract The Life of Abundance You Desire.

The Beauty of the Call - Alecia Erasmus (Stellenbosch) by GraceLife Podcast

“I believe” is a powerful statement. When we express our faith in Jesus we are not saying one thing, but four things. The shape of faith is made up of four sides: belief (what we do with our minds), confidence (what we do with our hearts, trust (what we do with our bodies), and allegiance (what we do with our will). Growing as people of faith requires growing in all four areas.

Welcome to the Squared Circle Podcast! I am your host Marie Shadows***Support: https://campsite.com/marieshadowshttps://patreon.com/marieshadowshttps://open.spotify.com/show/5nGoROIAggUjr04rAQkKfR?si=7a6958d00f2940f4***This episode isn't gossip. It's a case study in how love, anger, and performance collide until nobody knows where the act ends and the damage begins. Using the Masha Slamovich–Akira situation as a lens, we break down the patterns that trap people in toxic cycles—both in relationships and in industries that profit from chaos.Big Idea 1: The Cycle of Toxic LoveRelationships don't start toxic—they start with care, attention, and the promise that someone sees you. But when affection escalates into humiliation, apology, and repetition, love itself becomes a weapon.Affection That Feels Safe at First: “Because I care about you.” What should be comfort becomes a plea: please don't hurt me again.Words as Weapons: “Now you can love the memory of me.” Poetry as a tether, keeping a victim tied to pain.Devotion Turned Against You: “Once again, my love doesn't come with an asterisk.” Unconditional love can become leverage.Identity Attacks: “You're femme as f* and I'm not gay.” Humiliation disguised as honesty cuts deeper than fists.Big Idea 2: Abuse Isn't Always PhysicalNot all damage leaves a bruise. Emotional abuse can linger for years and is often invisible.Invisible Scars: Words like “you'll never be enough” echo long after a busted lip heals.Silence Feeds the Cycle: Unsounded protests allow the pattern to repeat.Love as a Trap: Staying out of hope that love will “win” can keep someone trapped.Abuse Has No Gender: Men can be victims. Women can be abusers. No stereotype protects anyone.Big Idea 3: Wrestling Culture Makes It WorseThis is bigger than two people. Wrestling rewards chaos and blurs lines between performance and personal boundaries.Brutal Schedules and Frayed Tempers: Exhaustion makes patience harder, and abuse more likely.“Work the Gimmick” = Blur the Line: Selling intimacy as a job makes it easy to forget where the act ends.Public Pain as Content: Online outrage consumes real suffering for clicks.The Pop Isn't Worth Your Soul: No angle, booking, or cheer is worth living in fear.Big Idea 4: Lessons We Have to CarryThis story is a mirror for every relationship and community that confuses passion with pain.Anger Is Not Love: Hitting, throwing, or humiliating is control, not passion.Communication Saves Lives: Speak up. Step away. Break the cycle with conversation.Love Yourself Enough to Leave: Walking away isn't weakness—it's survival.Truth Over Gossip: Talk about hard things without turning pain into entertainment.Three Smaller but Crucial IdeasPerformance Isn't Consent: A crowd pop doesn't erase personal boundaries.Algorithms Thrive on Suffering: Outrage and pain get clicks; popularity doesn't equal truth.Healing Requires Accountability: No one is a cartoon villain. Acknowledging harm is step one.Final ThoughtThe Masha–Akira story isn't about picking sides. It's about recognizing patterns before they trap us, refusing to mistake chaos for love, and remembering that no pop, storyline, or relationship is worth your soul.Time Stamp00:00 – Intro, context, and my personal disclaimers.03:00 – My brief interactions with Masha & Akira in the wrestling scene.08:00 – The first text message exchange—what it reveals about anger and control.17:00 – Overstimulation, bad matches, and misplaced frustration.28:00 – Physical abuse and the pictures of injuries.35:00 – Weaponizing sex and status in a toxic relationship.41:00 – Why communication matters more than winning an argument.47:00 – The breakup texts and what they teach us about self-awareness.50:00 – My call for accountability and healthier outlets for anger.

Most of us love the idea of unconditional support. We're told it's the gold standard because it feels warm, safe, cozy and ideal.I thought so too… until I realized it was quietly keeping me stuck.In this week's episode: “The Downside to Unconditional Support”. I share a story from my early 30s. My therapist was kind, supportive, and warm. My sessions with her felt like “back in the womb.”Awesome, right? Isn't that the goal?Yes, but here's the catch: my nervous system got too relaxed. I left soothed, but my patterns didn't change.The key: We need unconditional safety in the healing container and gentle drops of challenge so the nervous system sits in the window of tolerance where new pathways (real learning) form.In this episode, you'll learn:The difference between unconditional safety and unconditional supportWhy growth can't happen when you're too comfortableHow to know if learning happened (hint: behavior changes between sessions)How to apply this in therapy, coaching, parenting, and relationshipsTimestamps02:05 Healed individuals create a ripple effect03:14 Why I'm not a fan of unconditional support03:30 Update on the in-person retreat05:12 A personal story that brought this home07:35 Why therapy felt good but didn't create change09:43 The state in which growth cannot happen13:50 What many coaches/therapists don't realize15:34 The only way to confirm learning16:08 Why many of us cycle in/out of therapyBringing this into parenting or partnership?

Jesus spoke of the kingdom of God primarily in parables. These parables are not folksy illustrations to help us better understand the point—quite the opposite in fact. The parables of Jesus are often deliberately disorienting. Jesus wants to throw us off balance so that we might stumble into a previously unknown world—the world of God's grace where many of our most common assumptions are subverted.

The question of Israel's chosenness isn't abstract - it's foundational.  If God's covenant with Abraham is conditional, then Israel's future and even our own assurance in Christ are uncertain. But if it's unconditional, then God's faithfulness to Abraham secures hope for us all. In this episode, Ron and Matt Davis trace the Abrahamic covenant from Genesis 12, 15, and 17. They unpack the ancient covenant-cutting ceremony, the unconditional nature of God's promise, and how the Mosaic covenant fits alongside it.  They also show how the New Testament reaffirms - not erases - God's oath to Abraham, and why that matters for both Jews and Gentiles today. With analogies of trust funds and house rules, they bring clarity to common misunderstandings. God's covenant stands not because of human performance but because of His promise. And that means His faithfulness to Israel is the same faithfulness we depend on in Jesus. Key Takeaways God initiated and ratified the Abrahamic covenant alone - it's unconditional. Genesis 12–17 reveals a promise of people, place, and purpose. The land boundaries are literal, not symbolic. Circumcision is the covenant sign, not its source. The Mosaic covenant governs life in the land but does not annul Abraham's promise. The New Testament celebrates - not cancels - the Abrahamic covenant. God's gifts and calling are irrevocable (Romans 11:29).

This week on Upon Further Review, Dr. John Hall and Associate Pastor Cody Kitchen begin an exciting new series exploring the Doctrines of Grace—often described by the acronym TULIP or the Five Points of Calvinism: Total depravity, Unconditional election, Limited atonement, Irresistible grace, Perseverance of the saints.In this opening conversation, our pastors give you a glimpse into what these doctrines mean, why they matter, and how they shape the Christian life. Far from being a dry or divisive subject, this study is designed to elevate the glory of salvation and magnify God's grace.In This Episode:What the Doctrines of Grace are and why they matter todayWhy the term “Calvinism” has become so familiar in Christian cultureThe heart and intention behind this study (hint: not persuasion, but worship)How these truths have shaped Dr. Hall's and Cody's personal walks with GodWhich parts of TULIP are easier—or harder—to embraceHow the doctrines of grace cultivate humility in the believerWhere someone brand new to these ideas should beginThis is just the beginning!

Episode 3282: Cylon George shows that lasting confidence comes from embracing your true self rather than chasing external approval. By nurturing unconditional confidence, you can free yourself from self-doubt, trust your inner wisdom, and live with greater authenticity and courage. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.spirituallivingforbusypeople.com/cultivate-unconditional-confidence Quotes to ponder: "Unconditional confidence is not based on achievement, appearance, or approval from others." "True confidence arises when we stop trying to be something we are not and start trusting who we already are." "When you no longer depend on external validation, you become free to express yourself authentically." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The gospel story of the cross says this: Because of God's love the Son of God came into the world, and despite his actions of love, healing, and mercy, the Son of God was ultimately rejected, condemned, and crucified by a sinful world built upon violent power. And yet, in that moment, when the world did its very worst, the Crucified One was not condemning the world, but saving the world.

In the aftermath of an Israeli attack on Qatar targeting the leadership of Hamas, American political scientist John Mearsheimer argues, “The Israelis are interested in making sure there are no negotiations that settle the conflict in Gaza.” Mearsheimer tells host Steve Clemons that the United States and Israel “basically act as a tag team”, and despite a mild rebuke by President Donald Trump, “the US supports Israel unconditionally”. He adds that Israel has three main strategic goals: expand territory, move the Palestinians out of all conquered territory, and ensure that all countries in the region are weak. #aljazeera #aljazeeraenglish #aljazeeranewslive

Are you housed in your body, in your love, in your God—or are you squatting in the ruins of your own heart, evicted nightly by fear? You can hold deeds to mansions, stocks, and coins, yet still be spiritually homeless. You can wear the finest shoes, yet carry the brokest heart. 

Unconditional love? Are Religions intrinsically violent? Is the Old Covenant still valid? This and more on Called to Communion with Dr. David Anders.

Miroslav Volf explores agapic love, creation's goodness, and God's grief—an alternative to despair, power, and world rejection.“When a wanted child is born, the immense joy of many parents often renders them mute, but their radiant faces speak of surprised delight: ‘Just look at you! It is so very good that you are here!' This delight precedes any judgment about the beauty, functionality, or moral rectitude of the child. The child's sheer existence, the mere fact of it, is ‘very good.' That's what I propose God, too, exclaimed, looking at the new-born world. And that unconditional love grounds creation's existence.”In this fourth Gifford Lecture, Miroslav Volf contrasts the selective and self-centered love of Ivan Karamazov with the radically inclusive, unconditional love of Father Zosima. Drawing deeply from Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov, Genesis's creation and flood narratives, and Hannah Arendt's concept of amor mundi, Volf explores a theology of agapic love: unearned, universal, and enduring. This is the love by which God sees creation as “very good”—not because it is perfect, but because it exists. It's the love that grieves corruption without destroying it, that sees responsibility as mutual, and that offers the only hope for life in a deeply flawed world. With references to Luther, Nietzsche, and modern visions of power and desire, Volf challenges us to ask what kind of love makes a world, sustains it, and might one day save it. “Love the world,” he insists, “or lose your soul.”Episode Highlights“The world will either be loved with unconditional love, or it'll not be loved at all.”“Unconditional love abides. If the object of love is in a state that can be celebrated, love rejoices. If it is not, love mourns and takes time to help bring it back to itself.”“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all. Each needs forgiveness from all. Each must forgive all.”“Creation is not primarily sacramental or iconic. It is an object of delight both for humans and for God.”“Agapic love demands nothing from the beloved, though it cares and hopes much for them and for the shared world with them.”Show NotesSchopenhauer and Nietzsche's visions of happiness: pleasure and power as substitutes for love“Love as hunger”: the devouring nature of epithemic desireIvan Karamazov's tragic love for life—selective, gut-level, and self-focused“There is still… this wild and perhaps indecent thirst for life in me”Father Zosima's universal love for “every leaf and every ray of God's light”“Love man also in his sin… Love all God's creation”Sonya and Raskolnikov in Crime and Punishment: love as restoration“She loved him and stayed with him—not although he murdered, but because he murdered”God's declaration in Genesis: “And look—it was very good”Hannah Arendt's amor mundi—“I want you to be” as pure affirmationCreation as gift: “Each is itself by being more than itself”Martin Luther on marriage, sex, and delight as godly pleasuresThe flood as hypothetical: divine grief replaces divine destruction“It grieved God to his heart”—grief as a form of agapic love“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all.”Agape over erotic love: not reward and punishment, but faithful presence and care“Agapic love demands nothing… It is free, sovereign to love, humble.”Closing invitation: to live the life of love, under whatever circumstancesProduction NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

Be guided in a meditation to release any grudges, and to experience forgiveness. This week's journey may have revealed a profound truth: your emotional state is deeply intertwined with your physical and energetic health. When you experience anger, your body reacts with a cascade of physiological changes—your heart rate increases, your blood pressure rises, and stress hormones like cortisol flood your system. This is the fight-or-flight response, a survival mechanism designed for short-term threats, not for the long-term emotional burdens of holding a grudge.

Be guided in a meditation on forgiveness. When we can forgive ourselves and those who have wronged us, we can find a deep sense of inner peace.

We'll move from the core of your power to the wellspring of your creativity, culminating in the limitless compassion of your heart. This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Unconditional Heart: Turning Anger into Positive Energy," episodes 3360-3369. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE Acts of Compassion Quest: For the next seven days, practice one small act of self-compassion and one act of gratitude each day. This could be as simple as acknowledging your own humanity when you make a mistake and consciously listing one thing you are thankful for.
