The power structure in the Middle East has changed in a very short time, with Iran and its proxies weakened and Israel empowered.Soeren Kern, geopolitical analyst and managing editor of The Christian Worldview Journal joins us today to give perspective on these momentous events and how they may relate to God's end times plan.

    A Surge in Catholic Conversions... Especially Among Young Adults (Special Podcast Highlight)

    Trending with Timmerie - Catholic Principals applied to today's experiences.

    Play Episode Listen Later Jun 27, 2025 9:23


    Timmerie shares a sense of awe and joy at the incredible increase in Catholic conversions happening globally... especially in places like France, the U.S., and the U.K. We’re talking up to 70% increases in some dioceses! The Diocese of Fort Worth, Texas had a whopping 72% jump in conversions from 2023 to 2024. Most of these new Catholics are Gen Z and millennials. Yep... young adults in their 20s and 30s are filling the pews and receiving the sacraments like never before. Why the Shift? Culture, COVID, and the Call of Beauty Timmerie mentions interviews from The New York Post, where recent converts shared what drew them to the Church. Themes like: -A deep dissatisfaction with the "feel-good" culture of non-denominational churches -A hunger for reverence, beauty, and structure, especially found in the Mass and its ancient tradition -The disorienting chaos of the world during the pandemic, which made people pause and re-examine their faith. Take Sydney Johnson, a 30-year-old from California. The hustle culture had her burned out. During COVID, she slowed down, turned to prayer, and was captivated by the depth and order of the Catholic tradition. Same for Adrian Lawson, also 30, who struggled with mental health until the Rosary and Catholic community gave him a new lease on life. He said, "Since I started praying the Rosary and converted, I haven't had any of those issues." Lost in the World, Found in the Church A New York priest, Fr. Raymond La Grange, echoed a powerful point: young people are realizing the world can't give them what they're looking for. Everything is arbitrary, and that’s exhausting. They crave something solid, something with order, and they want something real. The Movement Goes Global And it’s not just the U.S. In France, over 10,000 adults converted this Easter alone, a 45% increase... with nearly half aged 18 to 25. Another 7,400 teenagers received the sacraments, up 33%. In the U.K., 41% of young adult churchgoers are now Catholic, compared to just half that being Anglican. Timmerie even heard from French priests and sisters, many from the Community of St. John, who said some conversions are even coming secretly from Islam, with people risking everything to follow Christ. The sisters emphasized that, even in secular and anti-religious environments, God is still calling hearts, and people are responding. Evangelization Is Working... And We’re All Part of It A French sister told Timmere that this surge is happening because people are evangelizing boldly: sharing the Gospel, standing for truth, inviting others into the Church. That’s our mission too. People are yearning for something more... something whole, transcendent, and healing. The Catholic Church offers exactly that.

    In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with Dr. Jack Hinman, licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions. They explore why today's youth are facing rising levels of anxiety, disconnection, and stalled independence. Dr. Jack shares how the pandemic exposed—not created—this crisis, emphasizing the breakdown in real-world connections, lack of resiliency, and the cultural shift toward canceling rather than engaging in growth-building relationships. The conversation dives into Dr. Jack's unique model of therapeutic support that goes beyond traditional therapy, helping young adults build sustainable habits, systems, and emotional resilience while fostering independence. ABOUT THE GUEST:Dr. Jack Hinman is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with young adults in diverse therapeutic settings, from inpatient hospitals to outdoor therapy programs. As founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions, Dr. Jack helps young people build real-life skills, navigate anxiety, and foster identity formation through a combination of therapeutic guidance, community connection, and practical support systems. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Today's youth struggle with anxiety rooted in disconnection, not just mental health issues. Social avoidance during and after the pandemic has magnified anxiety and stalled identity development. Effective support requires consistent, relationship-based influence rather than control. Building systems and habits (not rigid goals) fosters long-term independence. Parents also need to develop resiliency to support their struggling children without over-controlling. Engage's integrated model blends therapy, coaching, academic support, and daily living skills to empower young adults. CONNECT WITH DR.

    What Young Adults with Cancer Really Need: A Conversation with Emily Sarro

    In this episode, we speak with Emily Long Sarro, a board-certified family nurse practitioner specializing in adolescent and young adult (AYA) care at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. We focus on the unique challenges AYAs face before, during, and after a stem cell transplant. Emily shares how this age group, defined as 15 years old to 39 years old by the National Cancer Institute, is often overlooked in the healthcare system, stuck between pediatric and adult care settings. They're navigating identity, relationships, careers, and independence—while also managing a serious illness, which can disrupt or halt life milestones.We discuss how Emily approaches AYA care with a holistic mindset—merging clinical treatment with emotional and mental health support. She emphasizes the importance of granting young patients autonomy and private space, especially when families may unintentionally overstep. She urges healthcare providers to always include mental health support in the treatment plan, noting that anxiety, depression, and even PTSD are common in this group, both during and long after treatment.Emily also stresses the need for daily coping tools like journaling, movement, and meditation to supplement infrequent counseling sessions. She encourages us to create trust by really listening, especially since many AYAs feel dismissed in early diagnostic stages due to their age.We then dive into critical but often unspoken topics: fertility preservation, sexual health, and survivorship. Emily outlines time-sensitive fertility options and highlights the emotional toll if these aren't addressed early. She covers the hidden costs of care and offers resource suggestions like Livestrong and Cancer and Careers. She also calls attention to "silent disabilities" that persist post-transplant and affect career and daily function, emphasizing self-advocacy in the workplace. Coworkers and others may not "see" these limitations, but accommodations are often necessary.We discuss milestones missed due to treatment and the emotional weight of watching peers move on through social media. Emily suggests practical ways to stay socially connected, such as virtual events and platforms like Cancer Buddy. For caregivers, she reminds us that support often means just being present and handling small tasks that feel overwhelming to the patient.  It's important to hold space for patients' sadness over missing milestones, but when appropriate, the big picture remains: they may be sacrificing a few milestones now to experience many more later.The episode closes with a deeply moving survivor story—a young man from The Bronx who overcame mistrust in the medical system, underwent a transplant, and now runs a thriving music production business. His resilience and transformation encapsulate the hope and strength that defines this patient group.More:Marrow Masters Season 9, Episode 2, with fertility resources in Show Notes: https://marrowmasters.simplecast.com/episodes/preserving-fertility-through-cancer-treatmentCancerCare – https://www.cancercare.orgImerman's Angels – https://imermanangels.orgLivestrong Fertility – https://livestrong.org/how-we-help/livestrong-fertility/Worth the Wait – https://worththewaitcharity.com/Maggie's Dream (Fertility Preservation Assistance)–https://www.teammaggiesdream.org/Cancer and Careers – https://www.cancerandcareers.orgCancer Buddy App (Bone Marrow Foundation) –https://bonemarrow.org/support-and-financial-aid-2/support/about-cancerbuddyThanks to our Season 17 Sponsors:Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS): https://lls.org/and Incyte: https://incyte.com/ National Bone Marrow Transplant Link - (800) LINK-BMT, or (800) 546-5268.nbmtLINK Website: https://www.nbmtlink.org/nbmtLINK Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/nbmtLINKFollow the nbmtLINK on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/nbmtlink/The nbmtLINK YouTube Page can be found by clicking here.To participate in the GVHD Mosaic, click here: https://amp.livemosaics.com/gvhd

    From Surviving to Thriving: AYA Cancer Care with Dr. Chris Dandoy

    In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Chris Dandoy, Associate Professor of Clinical Pediatrics and bone marrow transplant physician at Cincinnati Children's Hospital. Dr. Dandoy shares his deep experience working with adolescents and young adults (AYAs), focusing on the unique challenges they face during and after cancer treatment. Our conversation centers around empowering AYAs to take ownership of their healthcare journey, improving outcomes, and restoring quality of life.Dr. Dandoy introduces us to Engraft, a collaborative learning network he founded, which unites providers, patients, families, industry partners, and nonprofits to improve survival and quality of life post-stem cell transplant. Rather than each center working in isolation, Engraft allows for real-time communication and problem-solving across 15 centers, helping everyone learn from each other's best practices.A core message in our conversation is the importance of ownership—encouraging AYAs to ask questions, understand their medications, and advocate for themselves. We explore the concept of “ownership” through examples, like advocating for the removal of central lines after they're no longer medically necessary, and understanding the role and risks of medications such as immunosuppressants and anti-infectives.Dr. Dandoy walks us through strategies to support medication adherence, such as using reminder apps, setting daily routines, and involving friends or caregivers for support. He also emphasizes the temporary nature of this intense medication schedule, helping patients see it as a phase, not a life sentence.We highlight how important it is for AYAs to stay engaged—learning about their labs, asking what new medications are for, and writing down questions for their healthcare team. Chris stresses that they don't have to memorize everything; the goal is communication and awareness, not perfection.For caregivers, Chris offers validation and encouragement, reminding them this is a marathon with tough stretches, but also moments of progress. He urges caregivers to walk beside their loved ones—not behind or in front—fostering independence and shared decision-making.Dr. Dandoy closes with an inspiring story of a young survivor who endured ICU-level complications but is now back to running races and embracing life fully. It's a powerful reminder that while the transplant journey is grueling, it's also transformative.More:Engraft Learning Network: https://www.engraftlearningnetwork.org/Thanks to our Season 17 Sponsors:Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS): https://lls.org/and Incyte: https://incyte.com/ National Bone Marrow Transplant Link - (800) LINK-BMT, or (800) 546-5268.nbmtLINK Website: https://www.nbmtlink.org/nbmtLINK Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/nbmtLINKFollow the nbmtLINK on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/nbmtlink/The nbmtLINK YouTube Page can be found by clicking here.To participate in the GVHD Mosaic, click here: https://amp.livemosaics.com/gvhd

    In this episode of the Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson and Joanna Lilley discuss the unique challenges faced by emerging adults, particularly in the realms of mental health and relationships. They explore the impact of technology on feelings of loneliness, the importance of parental support, and the need for young adults to develop resilience and independence. Joanna shares insights from her work as a therapeutic consultant, emphasizing the need for genuine connections and the role of parents in fostering growth and self-advocacy in their children.

    It's one of the first choices you'll make when writing a story, consciously or not: what point of view are you writing from? First person singular? Third person limited? Omniscient? Something else? The POV can affect a reader's experience of the narrative and the worldbuilding, either subtly or dramatically -- so how do you decide what's right for this story? Kate Elliott joins us to explore the possibilities! In this episode, we look at how the point of view can shape both what you communciate about a world and how you communicate it. The POV shows the rhythms of life and can be a good way to feed worldbuilding to the reader -- but it can also expose a character's gaps in knowledge or their biases and prejudices! After all, a commoner and a noble living in same location will interact with different pieces of the world and in very different ways. That, in turn, can affect how the author thinks of the world: what we spotlight, where we might have gaps, and prompting a need to check our own biases. And on top of all of that, POV is also something with its own trends within genres and over time! So we dig into those influences as well.

Today we're celebrating the fact that he is still here with us, and we're inspired by his decision to use his precious time to launch The Jonathan Clements Getting Going on Savings Initiative. Watch or listen to find out how you can get a free Kindle copy of Jonathan's new book, and how you can help Jonathan pay it forward for the next generation.

    In today's installment of our Wellness Wednesday series, we talk with Dr. Daniel Amen, psychiatrist and and founder of Amen Clinics, about ADHD and mental illness treatments in the United States. He tells us about the seven different types of ADHD that he has seen in his clinics as well as some of the potential causes and treatments beyond medication that are available. And are young boys being over-medicalized just for being rambunctious boys, or is there a real rise in ADHD diagnoses? Lastly, we pick Dr. Amen's brain, no pun intended, on marijuana and mushroom use in adolescents and just how harmful it can be.
