I have always wondered about the roots of modern day Islamophobia? When did it start? How did it develop? How was it formed? In this interview, Deanna Womack takes us into her new book "Re-inventing Islam: Gender and the Protestant Roots of American Islamophobia" where she examines the connection between the history of missions and contemporary Islamophobia. Along the way, she provides a more nuanced understanding of missionaries, their lives, goals and aspirations. Many of them would eventually became champions of interfaith dialogue and build bridges between the civilizations.

In this episode of The Behavioral View, Nissa Van Etten, Olivia Teal, Elizabeth Barajas, and Yagnesh Vadgama discuss the evolution of outcomes-based care within applied behavior analysis (ABA). Drawing from extensive experience in both clinical practice and payer systems, Vadgama outlines the differences between traditional fee-for-service models and outcomes-based care frameworks. The panel explores how standardized assessments, aggregate data analysis, and empirically supported dosing recommendations can create greater alignment between providers and payers while maintaining individualized clinical decision-making. The discussion addresses administrative burden, prior authorization processes, value-based payment arrangements, caregiver involvement, social determinants of health, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Emphasis is placed on transparency, data-driven decision making, and protecting the integrity of behavior analytic practice while demonstrating measurable outcomes at both the individual and population levels. This course provides practical insight into how outcomes-based care models may shape the future of ABA service delivery.

U.S. Rep. Steve Womack, R-Rogers, discusses his recess tour through the Third District and what awaits Congress when it returns to D.C.

Welcome to this fact-laden, episode of Light ‘Em Up.As we go to air - we're halfway through Black History Month.2026 marks the 100th anniversary of Black History Month, first established as "Negro History Week" by Dr. Carter G. Woodson in February 1926. The 2026 national theme is “A Century of Black History Commemorations”, honoring 100 years of recognizing the achievements and contributions of Black Americans to U.S. history.Black history is American history!We feel richly blessed and highly favored to sit down and visit, honoring Black History Month, with a dear friend of ours and a show favorite.  Dr. Sandy Womack, Jr.Dr. Womack Jr. has devoted his life to being a servant leader, educator and striving to be the best at whatever he attempts. He is an NCAA All-American wrestler with a doctorate in educational leadership, author, former principal, district administrator, equity trainer, motivational speaker, and much more.He is retired from his current role at the close of January (2026) after a generation (33+ years) of dedicating his life to urban education.This year's Black History Month arrives as our democracy is being tested in unprecedented ways, and the future of the republic hangs in the balance.Dr. Womack expressed grave concerns that we are “in an in between place similar to the times during the Reconstruction era after the Civil War (1865 – 1877) where the Federal Government sent in troops to ensure that the freed Blacks had and maintained the right to vote, to assemble, and the rights to a public education”.Based on reports, executive actions, and policy initiatives from 2025 and early 2026, the second Trump administration has pursued a broad agenda focused on rolling back diversity initiatives, changing civil rights enforcement, and altering educational and economic policies that critics argue disproportionately affect Black Americans.  And federal agents are arresting journalists (Don Lemon) and gunning down civilians in the streets.In this exclusive interview, we'll drill down on:— Assessing the pulse of the country — where are we as a nation and as people with the recent killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis?— The importance of taking an active role in the franchise (voting) how voting “changes policy, policy impacts practices and practices impact politics”.He feels deeply that the future “depends on the youth of today” — to see wide eyed the abuses and oversteps by this administration which will “serve as the catalyst to push the younger generation to the polls to vote in large and impressive ways”.He stressed the importance of “collectively coming together” and working to find some “communality” — at the end of the day, we have “more things that unite us than divide” — we sadly choose to focus and give attention to those aspects that are tribal and exacerbate division.We've strayed beyond an inflection point — democracy is actively in peril.“We have to become students of history. We have to read, write, speak and most importantly be able to think critically” to be educated and informed sufficiently to question the current status quo — for those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.He emphatically declares that: “Outcomes won't change until incomes change.” He urges all who will listen to “don't let your lying eyes fool you”.“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” ― George Orwell, 1984Tune in to our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot! We want to hear from you!Support the show

What happens when danger comes from where you least expect it? Bart Womack dedicated nearly three decades of his life to serving the United States Army, rising to the highest enlisted ranks and leading soldiers in combat, training, and some of the most sacred roles in military service. But one moment forever changed his understanding of trust, leadership, and survival when he became a firsthand survivor of a deadly insider attack carried out by a fellow American soldier. This episode explores the psychological impact of betrayal, the long road to healing after trauma, and how Bart transformed one of the darkest moments of his life into a mission focused on prevention, awareness, and leadership. His story is not just about military service — it's about resilience, responsibility, and choosing purpose after devastation. Guest Bio Command Sergeant Major (Ret.) Bart E. Womack served over 29 years in the United States Army, holding elite roles including Drill Sergeant, Ranger Instructor, and Sergeant of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. A two-time combat veteran, Bart retired after serving as both Commandant of the 101st Airborne Division Noncommissioned Officers Academy and Command Sergeant Major of the 101st Airborne Division. Following his military career, Bart transitioned into film, consulting, and veteran advocacy, working in Hollywood as a military technical advisor and supporting veterans through education and mentorship. He is the author of Embedded Enemy, which recounts his survival of a deadly insider attack, and he now serves as a speaker and security consultant focused on mitigating insider threats and active shooter incidents. You'll hear About Bart's rise through the Army and leadership at the highest enlisted levels The insider attack that reshaped his understanding of trust and safety The emotional and psychological aftermath of surviving betrayal Turning trauma into advocacy, education, and prevention What leaders must understand about insider threats today Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 02:10 Bart's Early Military Path and Commitment to Service 05:20 Leadership Roles and Life in the 101st Airborne Division 08:30 Combat Experience and the Reality of Trust in Uniform 12:10 The Insider Attack and the Moment Everything Changed 16:30 Surviving Trauma, Shock, and Moral Injury 20:10 Writing Embedded Enemy and Processing the Experience 24:10 From Survivor to Advocate and Educator 27:30 Leadership Lessons for Organizations and Communities 30:30 Bart's Message on Vigilance, Awareness, and Responsibility 33:00 Chuck's Closing Reflections Chuck's Challenge This week, reflect on how you assess trust and awareness in your own environment.

What if Bible study didn't feel dry, intimidating, or guilt-driven, but instead felt alive, honest, and deeply formative? In this episode of The Speakeasy Podcast, Blake sits down with Faith Womack, author of No More Boring Bible Study and self-proclaimed Bible nerd, to talk about how Scripture can actually come to life in your everyday faith. Faith shares her powerful story of growing up with Scripture misused and weaponized—and how God redeemed that pain by drawing her into a deep, life-giving love for His Word. Together, they unpack: Why Bible study often feels boring (and why it doesn't have to) How cultural Christianity and performance pressure distort our approach to Scripture Why chasing "mountaintop moments" can actually hold us back How to read the Bible with clarity, context, and confidence Why it's okay to go slow, camp out, and stop treating God like a vending machine This conversation is freeing, grounding, and incredibly practical, especially if you've ever felt overwhelmed, bored, intimidated, or burned by Bible study. Whether you're brand new to reading Scripture or have been in it for years, this episode will help you shift from pressure to presence and rediscover the beauty of God's Word. "The Bible isn't boring, we just haven't always been taught how to read it."

Don and Dude keep the “I Love the 80s” tour rolling into 1983, a year when cable TV, mail‑order music clubs, and early MTV helped R&B and pop polish their hooks without sanding off all the emotional rough edges. One of us brings a married‑duo soul record that turns relationship conflict into sophisti‑funk therapy, while the other counters with a technicolor, hook‑stuffed debut that reframes punky, downtown weirdness as mass‑appeal pop. Together, the albums show how 1983's R&B and pop could be slick, vulnerable, and chart‑ready, but still tangled up in money, heartbreak, and the messy work of becoming yourself.The AlbumsWomack & Womack – Love Wars (1983) On their debut as a duo, Cecil and Linda Womack fold family gospel roots, Sam Cooke's shadow, and veteran songwriting chops into a lean early‑80s R&B set that treats love like an ongoing negotiation instead of a fairy tale. Built around supple basslines, tight James Gadson grooves, and restrained synths, the record plays like a living‑room soul soap opera where arguments, red flags, and reconciliations all get equal airtime. Tracks like “Love Wars,” “Baby I'm Scared of You,” and their quietly devastating cover of “Angie” push past easy romance into fear, honesty, and hard‑won optimism, sketching a relationship cycle that feels lived‑in rather than idealized. Produced by Stewart Levine with an A‑team of L.A. session players, the album's space, subtlety, and emotional candor would later be heard as a bridge toward neo‑soul and more adult‑minded R&B.Cyndi Lauper – She's So Unusual (1983) Cyndi Lauper's solo debut explodes out of the speakers as a neon‑bright mix of pop‑rock, new wave, and downtown art‑kid attitude, turning a batch of covers and co‑writes into an unmistakably personal statement. From the cynical, melodica‑laced opener “Money Changes Everything” through the feminist rallying cry of “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” and the tender, slow‑motion reassurance of “Time After Time,” she proves she can be funny, strange, and devastatingly vulnerable—sometimes in the same song. Rick Chertoff's production leans on jangly guitars, stacked harmonies, and sharp synth hooks, but always keeps Lauper's elastic, technically fierce voice at the center. The result is an album that made history with four Top‑Five singles and still plays like a manifesto for unapologetic individuality in pop.Diggin' AlbumsHome Front – Watch It Die (2025) Edmonton's Home Front push their self‑described “bootwave” further on Watch It Die, fusing 80s‑inflected synths, post‑punk grit, and anthemic choruses into songs about getting by when everything feels like it's fraying at the edges.The Twilight Sad – It's the Long Goodbye (2026) On their sixth LP, The Twilight Sad stretch their dense, noise‑tinted indie rock into a reflective, slow‑burning set about loss, endings, and hanging on, wrapping James Graham's thick‑accented confessions in towering guitars and electronics that feel both crushing and oddly comforting.Flickerstick – Superluminal (2025) Reuniting after more than two decades, Flickerstick return with Superluminal, an 11‑track set of cinematic alt‑rock that folds their early‑2000s melodic instincts into grown‑up songs about time, aging, and the strange vertigo of getting a second act.Def Leppard – Pyromania (1983) Pyromania finds Def Leppard and producer Mutt Lange perfecting the gleaming, radio‑ready side of hard rock, stacking harmonized choruses and surgically precise riffs into arena anthems like “Photograph,” “Rock of Ages,” and “Foolin'” that defined what big‑budget 80s rock would sound like.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing.“You'll find many of the truths that we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.” - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Hey friends,Let's be honest, studying the Bible as a busy parent can feel overwhelming. We want to be in the Word, but sometimes we just don't know where to start.

From the end of the American Civil War to the start of World War II, the Protestant missionary movement unintentionally tilled the soil in which American Islamophobia would eventually take root. What ideas did missionaries in Islamic contexts pass on to later generations? How were these ideas connected to centuries-old Protestant discourses about Muslims and gender beginning in the Reformation? And what bearing does this history have on the birth of Islamophobia and on Christian-Muslim dialogue efforts in the US today? In answering these questions, Re-inventing Islam traces the gender constructs that have informed historical Protestant perceptions of Islam, especially in the far-reaching textual, visual, and material influences of the American and British movement for missions to Muslims. This book first considers Protestant discourse about Muslim women and men from the Reformation to the Enlightenment. Then it turns to the colossal archive of literature, images, and cultural objects that missionaries--and particularly missionary women--collected from Islamic contexts and used to inform and motivate their constituents.Anglo-Protestants in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries perpetually re-invented stereotypes about Muslims and used these negative images to achieve particular Protestant theological and political purposes, including missionary aims. They did so when disseminating gender critiques widely to Protestant men, women, and children. Why did they re-invent Islam? Deanna Ferree Womack argues that they did so to reinforce Protestant theological claims, to justify their evangelistic endeavors, to express both humanitarian concern and Eurocentric views of the world, and to support British and American cultural, economic, and military expansion. Simultaneously, however, this same missionary movement educated its constituents about diverse Islamic cultures, in part by providing humanizing images of Islam. Missionaries also formed personal relationships with Muslims that would open pathways toward formal efforts of Christian-Muslim dialogue after the mid-twentieth century. Americans have inherited all of these legacies. In revisiting this history readers will find new possibilities for building a more open and just future. Learn more about your ad choices.

What if knowing yourself is the most sacred work you'll ever do? In this episode, we slow things down and explore the power of where you place your focus and how that choice shapes the life you're living. My guest, Marcellus Womack, shares his “One Thing” model, a simple yet profound way to clarify what truly matters most and begin taking meaningful steps toward it before time slips by. Together, we talk about optimism, not as forced positivity, but as a gentle practice rooted in awareness, empathy, and truth. We hold space for those who have lived through deep struggle, and we explore how hope can coexist with pain without dismissing it. This conversation is an invitation to reflect, to get honest about what brings you happiness, and to reconnect with the quiet wisdom already within you. It's not about having all the answers, it's about asking better questions and learning to listen to yourself again. If you've been craving clarity, meaning, or a softer way to approach growth, this episode is for you. Connect and learn more about Marcellus' work here: https://www.thesavagematrix.com/

Tank Spencer and Chris Womack, Sports Director at News 13, catch up on the College Football Playoff. The 1st Round has two games we expect to be competitive. Can Alabama turn things around and finish strong, or will Oklahoma beat them a 3rd time in barely over a calendar year? The Miami Hurricanes face Texas A&M in the other. Also, The Carolina Panthers have a chance at the playoffs and Puka Nacua accuses the refs of making up penalties to get on TV.

Tasheena Womack teaches us how to break free from perfectionism, reframe failure and build the kind of mindset that makes you unstoppable. Tasheena founded Simply Tasheena in 2011 as a lifestyle blog that has since partnered with major brands including Disney, Goya®, Hilton, Mazda, and Kodak. With a Master's degree in Organizational Management and Leadership, she has built multiple successful ventures and spoken at over 100 organizations throughout the tri-state area. Tasheena specializes in helping entrepreneurs develop the mindset strategies needed to transform creative passions into sustainable businesses. She strives to empower others with practical tools for entrepreneurial success and personal growth. Tasheena talks about shifting out of fear, treating mistakes as data, creating an evidence file, and taking bold action without waiting for things to be perfect. If you have felt stuck, hesitant or discouraged lately, this episode will clear that fog fast. It is the kind of mindset reset that changes how you move. Key points discussed include: Action beats perfection and waiting for ideal conditions stalls your entire business. Failure is just information and every misstep teaches you the next right move. An evidence file keeps you grounded on the days you doubt your own progress. Simple steps create momentum so do one thing and let the next unfold. Comparison becomes strategy when you use it for learning instead of judgment. Your voice builds your community so show your face, speak on camera and share your real life. Opportunities expand when you negotiate and brands often mirror your confidence. The best is always ahead and your job is simply to keep showing up. Connect with Tasheena Womack Website | Instagram

There's a difference between loving the Bible and learning how to read it. For many, study has felt complicated, clinical, or—worst of all—boring. Some of us were discipled by personalities instead of passages; others learned to chase quick application while skipping context. This week on Win Today, Faith Womack, author of No More Boring Bible Study, joins me to rediscover a way of reading Scripture that is honest, thoughtful, and engaging. We wrestle with tension instead of flattening it; we name the mistakes that teachers and pastors often make, and we rebuild a faithful hermeneutic that carries you from observation to interpretation to application without distorting the text. If you've wanted easy methods, renewed energy for the grand story, and a path to encounter the Lord in the Word—not just opinions about the Word—this conversation is your on-ramp. Guest Bio Faith Womack is the author of No More Boring Bible Study: Why Taking Scripture Seriously Is Easier—and More Exciting—Than You Think and the creator behind Bible Nerd Ministries. Her work translates serious hermeneutics into clear, repeatable practices for everyday disciples. Today isn't about academic showmanship; it's about putting tools in your hands so you can read what's there and be formed by it.

In this episode, I'm joined by Faith Womack, known to many as Bible Nerd Ministries, for a deeply refreshing conversation on how to read Scripture with clarity, curiosity, and joy. Faith shares her own story of growing up with mishandled and misapplied Bible teaching, and how learning the basics of hermeneutics transformed everything for her. We talk about context, genre, the big story of God's redemption, why so many of us default to reading ourselves into the text, and how Scripture becomes truly alive when we allow it to reveal who God is rather than simply serve our needs. If you've ever felt bored, intimidated, confused, or stuck in your Bible reading, this episode is a hopeful path back toward awe, depth, and worship. And as Faith reminds us, understanding the Word isn't reserved for scholars, it's an invitation extended to every follower of Jesus.Faith Womack is the founder of Bible Nerd Ministries and a content creator who aims to inspire Christians to get back into the Word of God. Her courses, including “Bible Study Bootcamp” and “Theology Bootcamp,” have reached thousands, and her Bible study content has reached over 10 million people on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.  Faith aims to empower Christians not only to understand the Bible but also to enjoy it. Her debut book, No More Boring Bible Study: Why Taking Scripture Seriously Is Easier and More Exciting Than You Think releases from Zondervan in November 2025. Faith has a B.A. in biblical and theological studies from Covenant College and a M.A.T.S. from Erskine Seminary.
