 EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & MindHave you ever felt pulled in two directions at once? The world tells us to “follow your heart,” but what happens when your heart doesn't know where it's going? In Week 2 of our Emotions series, we're talking about the divided heart and why unsettled loyalties lead to unstable lives. Looking at Joshua, Proverbs, and Psalm 86, we'll see how choosing God as our destination changes everything. When the destination is clear, daily direction becomes steady.

This season marks a new beginning—one shaped by grief, surrender, and the deep work God does in places we never would have chosen, but where He so often meets us most faithfully. In this opening episode, Bryson shares why this season of the podcast will look different than the first two. After walking with her sister Beth through nine years of cancer and her final hospice days, Bryson stepped away from the podcast to grieve and wrestle with the Lord in a deeply personal way. Now, she returns changed—but anchored in the same truth that has always defined Honey For Your Heart: God is still writing good and perfect stories, even when they are hard.   Using the imagery of Kintsugi—the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with gold—this episode explores how God meets us in our brokenness, not to erase the cracks, but to fill them with His presence, grace, and purpose. Bryson reflects on the story of Joseph and the repeated promise that "the Lord was with him," reminding us that God's presence does not spare us from suffering, but it does ensure our pain is never wasted.   This episode sets the foundation for the season ahead—one that will focus on lessons learned in the deep places: waiting, gratitude, surrender, living with an eternal mindset, and trusting God when His plan looks different than our own.   Whether you are grieving, waiting, questioning, or simply weary, this episode is an invitation—to sit with God in the tension, to trust Him in the unfinished chapters, and to believe that even here, He is still at work.   Scripture Referenced Psalm 34:18 Genesis 39:2 Psalm 130:5 What's Coming This Season In the weeks ahead, we'll talk about: Why waiting is active, not passive Gratitude as a spiritual practice, not just a feeling What it truly means to live with an eternal mindset Holding our human desires alongside surrendered trust in God's plan Thank you for being here—and for walking into this new season together.   Additional Resources: "Lessons From The Deep" Listening Guide "Lessons From The Deep" Study Guide "Lessons From The Deep" Companion Scripture Guide "Lessons From The Deep" Small Group Discussion Guide   Follow along on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/honey_for_your_heart/   Find out more about Honey for Your Heart at https://honeyforyourheartpodcast.com/    

Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples: “Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.” Luke 6:36What is mercy? How is the Father in Heaven merciful? Suppose someone lived a life contrary to God's will. When that person dies and stands before the Judgment Seat of God, will God, in His mercy, say, “That's okay, you can enter Heaven even though you do not deserve it”? Or in our lives, if someone is living an openly sinful lifestyle that is objectively contrary to God's moral law, should we say, “If living that way makes you happy, then I'm happy for you”? Neither of these depicts authentic mercy.After telling us, “Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful,” Jesus defines what He means. First, He tells us what not to do: “Stop judging…Stop condemning.” God, and God alone, has the authority to judge and condemn. We do not. Therefore, when we judge and condemn another, we usurp God's authority. Only God sees the heart; therefore, only God can judge a person.However, the command to “Stop judging” and “Stop condemning” must be exercised from two perspectives. On the one hand, we ought not to judge a person as a sinner deserving condemnation. On the other hand, we ought not to declare a person morally righteous, especially when someone's actions contradict God's revealed law. So what are we to do? We limit our judgment to the objective moral actions that God has revealed, leaving it to God to condemn or exonerate the heart. This will free us from anger and enable us to express authentic love.For example, if two people live as husband and wife even though they are not married, we should look for an opportunity to express our hope that they enter into marriage rather than continue living together while unmarried. This is not a condemnation of their souls but a proclamation of God's objective moral law. It's the Gospel, and we must speak it with kindness, patience, and clarity. Furthermore, if we express to these same individuals that we are somehow happy for them and support their living arrangement, we are also wrongly judging them to be in God's good graces, which is just as sinful on our part. Hence, not judging and not condemning means we focus on the objective action, not the heart. This can be difficult, especially with those closest to us, but it is essential in practicing true mercy.What Jesus says next is even more challenging: “Forgive” and “give.” As an added motivation, Jesus explains that we will only be forgiven when we forgive others, and good gifts will be given to us only when we give. Forgiveness and generosity are acts of great mercy. To forgive is to offer pardon to one who has committed some sin against us. Though we never know a person's heart and, therefore, their culpability for an action, there are plenty of times when an offense is committed against us. In this case, there is only one appropriate response: forgive and give kindness, compassion, and mercy. We must never hold a grudge, remain angry, sulk over an injury, or hold a sin against another. Never.The challenge is that human reason alone cannot fully comprehend this. We need divine revelation and God's grace to inform our minds and hearts that this is the right thing to do. By drawing closer to Christ in prayer and the sacraments, we can grow in this supernatural mercy, allowing His grace to transform our hearts. Reflect today on this true meaning of mercy. Beg for God's mercy in your life in superabundance. As you do, choose to offer mercy to others to the same extent that you ask for God's mercy. Give generously, exceeding what your human reason alone comprehends, and God will pour His mercy upon you in the same incomprehensible way.My merciful Lord, there are many times when I judge another, hold a grudge, and am stingy with mercy. Please give me Your Heart so that I can overcome my failures and give of myself with supernatural virtue. I want to be like You, my God. Help me show mercy in superabundance.

Our emotions are powerful, but they don't always tell us the truth.This Sunday, we're launching a brand new series called Emotions: Getting a Grip of Your Heart and Mind.

Your Dentist Is Missing the Biggest Threat to Your Heart, Gut, and Brain You brush. You floss. You go to your cleanings twice a year. And your dentist tells you everything looks fine. But what if the bacteria living between your teeth right now are quietly driving up your cardiovascular risk, disrupting your gut microbiome, and making certain cancer treatments less effective? Dr. Terri sits down with functional dentist Dr. Debbie Ozment — a 41-year practitioner who completely transformed her approach after a single patient's inflamed gums disappeared overnight thanks to a vitamin D injection. What started as curiosity turned into decades of research, a TEDx talk, and a master's thesis called The Forgotten Orifice — because medicine keeps ignoring the one opening that connects to everything else. This episode is for anyone who's "doing all the right things" but still dealing with chronic inflammation, unexplained lab results, or gut issues that won't resolve. What you'll discover: Why one patient's C-reactive protein dropped from 18.1 to 2.9 in just 60 days — with nothing but periodontal therapy The oral bacteria found in 100% of colorectal cancer patients (and how it makes chemotherapy less effective) Why bleeding gums are never "normal" — and what it really means for your systemic health The mouthwash mistake almost everyone makes that's destroying nitric oxide production and harming your heart How Fusobacterium nucleatum travels from your mouth to your fallopian tubes — and what that means for fertility The simple interdental brush technique that outperforms flossing for disrupting dangerous biofilm How ozone therapy stopped a 32-year-old woman's jaw from being surgically removed Why Dr. Debbie's top five daily habits have nothing to do with expensive dental products The bottom line: Health starts in the gut. But the gut starts in the mouth. Period. The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions. For more, visit: https://www.evexias.com Connect with Dr. Terri:

Scott Martin's transformation from elite athlete to disability advocate demonstrates that identity is not determined by circumstance but by choice. After losing both hands and parts of his feet to necrotizing fasciitis in 1993, Scott faced a pivotal moment in his garage where he rejected the suicide narrative society had constructed for him. Instead of accepting victimhood, he consciously reclaimed agency and rebuilt his life around a singular philosophy: positioning people to learn and succeed rather than simply instructing them. Scott's advocacy exposes critical failures in how institutions engage with disability. He identifies disabled individuals as inherent problem-solvers whose daily navigation of obstacles makes them exceptionally valuable employees and contributors. His core insight is radical in its simplicity: education and openness reduce stigma, and visibility transforms perception. By refusing to hide his disability and speaking honestly about his experience, Scott normalizes difference and demonstrates that capability transcends physical form, challenging every assumption society makes about limitation. Scott Martin's Play from Your Heart is now available for presale, with his goal to reach bestseller status and amplify this message of resilience and inclusion. The book serves as both memoir and manifesto, designed to provoke thought and inspire action across sports, business, and social spheres. Support his mission by purchasing through Library Tales Publishing, Amazon, Thriftbooks or major retailers including Barnes & Noble and Simon & Schuster. Scott's work reminds us that true leadership means creating conditions for others to discover their own strength, that disability is not a tragedy but a different way of navigating the world, and that our collective humanity depends on building systems and cultures that value every person's contribution.

From “In the Beginning” to Amen // Gifted by the Spirit of God for WorkBezalel and Oholiab Exodus 31:2-3 (NLT)“Look, I have specifically chosen Bezalel son of Uri, grandson of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. I have filled him with the Spirit of God, giving him great wisdom, ability, and expertise in all kinds of crafts.” 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 (NIV)“There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.” Romans 11:29 (AMP)“For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable [for He does not withdraw what He has given, nor does He change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call].” James 1:17 (NIV)“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom there is no change or shifting shadow.” Ephesians 2:8-10 (NIV)“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”  Do What's in Your Heart to Do and Do It to the Best of Your Ability

In this "How-to" and "Identity" episode, we will dive into the Holy Spirit's mind manifestation gift of discernment.  Jesus explains what this gift is and is not, so we understand why it's so important in this generation.   How does this gift allow you to see past natural realities into the future of God's will?   And how does knowing that change how you pray with and minister to others?  Dr. Patty shares some biblical and personal stories of how this gift looks when released. How can you practically grow in your sensitivity to the spirit so you can increase your discernment?   What is social proof and how can it be used as a scheme of the enemy if you are not grounded in the Truth?  In order to increase your sensitivity to the Spirit, Dr. Patty shares a quick self-assessment tool that will diagnose the quieting issues that block you from sensing God.    Jesus addresses your quieting issues in your experience with Him and will give you practical tips for increasing your sensitivity to His communications with you.

234 What happens when the opposite traits that attracted you to your partner become the very things that frustrate you?Nadine revisits an essay she first wrote in 2018 and originally shared on episode 3 in 2021—an essay about her husband and the moments that have exposed their differences, for better and for worse.Nadine also reflects on what it's like to listen back, now that her kindergartener is a middle schooler and her home address has changed from Chicago to Florida. Yet some things have remained the same: life is as challenging and uncertain as ever.Through memories of wilderness hikes and a post-couples-therapy stroll that helped rekindle connection, Nadine explores how walking became both a practice and a metaphor for marriage. After the essay, she shares behind-the-scenes reflections on how the piece was written—and offers a gentle invitation to writers to follow objects, memories, and moments of meaning wherever they lead.Reclaim your writing time with the following offerings in 2026:Revision Made Easy: A 3-Step Process to Up-level Your Writing Virtual, Feb 28Revision Retreat: Craft Your Best Draft (In-person): Aug 2026, Madeline Island School of the Arts, WIAbout Nadine:Nadine Kenney Johnstone is an award-winning author, podcast host, and writing coach.

This week, celebrated singer/songwriter & hometown humorist Antsy McClain with world renowned harp-guitarist Muriel Anderson recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with Antsy & Muriel. Antsy McClain brings his unique blend of music and “humor with heart” to the stage, combining his original songs with a hilarious slide show, including Antsy's own life observations, social commentary and imaginary sponsors from his home town trailer park of Pine View Heights. As a master storyteller with the likes of PBS, NPR and TEDTalks under his belt, Antsy includes humorous and serious songs in his shows. Songs such as “One Less Trailer Here in Pine View Heights,” My Baby Whistles When She Walks,” and “The Junk Drawer of Your Heart,” are keenly humorous observations about love and loss, while his more serious songs, like “Field Trip,” “I'm Everyone,” or “Falling in Love in America,” are more akin to personal journal entries written in the act of living. It's this tightrope walk between humor and heart that makes Antsy McClain a true original. - http://unhitched.com/antsys-bio/ One of the world's foremost fingerstyle guitarists and harp-guitarists, Muriel Anderson is the first woman to have won the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship. Her CD “Nightlight Daylight” was chosen as one of the top 10 CDs of the decade by Guitar Player Magazine her “Heartstrings” recording accompanied the astronauts on the space shuttle Discovery. She has performed/recorded with Chet Atkins, Les Paul, Victor Wooten and the Nashville Chamber Orchestra. Her obvious joy of music, humor and her facility across the genres of folk, classical, jazz, bluegrass and international music is revered by guitarists worldwide. An engaging performer, Muriel's unique approach to the instrument virtually transforms the guitar into a lyrical choir, then a marching band, then a Japanese koto, then a Bluegrass band, one minute launching into a Beatles' tune and the next, a Rodrigo concerto. Her video “Why Worry” has garnered a total of over 8 million views. Muriel is host of the renowned Muriel Anderson's ALL STAR GUITAR NIGHT® and founder of the MUSIC FOR LIFE ALLIANCE charity. - http://murielanderson.com/press/bio/ In this week's “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers an archival recording of Ozark originals Robert & Mary Gillihan performing the traditional song “Banks of the Ohio,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. Author, folklorist, and songwriter Charley Sandage presents an historical portrait of the people, events, and indomitable spirit of Ozark culture that resulted in the creation of the Ozark Folk Center State Park and its enduring legacy of music and craft. This episode brings us a portrait of the White River Line railroad of the Ozarks, featuring interviews with George Lankford, professor emeritus at Lyon College in Batesville.

Main Idea. Those in Christ are marked by love for their brothers, not by Cain's hatred. Driving Question. What is the mark of those alive in Christ? 1. Hatred is the mark of Cain's people (vv. 11–15) Matthew 5: 21 You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.' 22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!' will be liable to the hell of fire. 2. Love is the mark of Christ's people (vv. 16–18) Application. Because Christ has loved us sacrificially, we are called to love one another in truth and action. Takeaways. Recognize Cain in Your Heart. Relinquish Yourself to Christ's work. Ready Yourself for the World's Hatred. Restore Health in the Church.

Is God closer than we think? Join us as we rediscover heaven and explore the profound reality of God's presence in our lives. This episode dives into the meaning of "heaven" in scripture, challenging traditional views and unpacking the closeness of God in the very air we breathe. The hosts thoughtfully discuss the intersections of Christianity, faith, and politics, addressing cultural challenges and the role of the church in society. With themes like cruciformity and justice, they unpack how the teachings of Jesus invite us into a life of humility, curiosity, and critical engagement with faith. Throughout the conversation, we examine how misconceptions about heaven and God's proximity have shaped faith practices and cultural narratives, often distorting the gospel message. Drawing on examples from scripture and modern-day challenges, we seek to understand how faith can transcend ideological boundaries and bring hope to our communities.  Feel free to email in questions, engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram, or share your thoughts as we pursue dialogue and learning together. We encourage and would love discussion as we explore faith, cultural issues, and theology with honesty and openness.

Read Online“If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills and go in search of the stray? And if he finds it, amen, I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not stray.”  Matthew 18:12–13Jesus teaches us a powerful lesson using a familiar image: the shepherd who discovers one of his sheep is missing, goes on a diligent search, finds the lost sheep, and rejoices. The hard work of searching through the hills and valleys is rewarded as soon as the shepherd spots that one lost sheep in the distance. He quickly runs to it, picks it up, and carries it back to the flock. While that one sheep is not more valuable than any of the other ninety-nine, there is great joy in finding the one that was lost.We are all that one lost sheep at various times in our lives. Sometimes we stray just around the corner, while other times we wander far from God. This image of the Good Shepherd diligently seeking out the lost sheep teaches us two essential lessons. First, when we wander away from God and fall into sin, it's easy to forget how much the Good Shepherd loves us. We might think that God is disappointed or angry with us, but these are lies from the evil one that deter us from turning back to God. Since we will always struggle with sin in this life, we must have a clear image in our minds of the Good Shepherd's love. We must be keenly aware of the passion, intensity, and determination with which He seeks us out. He does not sit in judgment or condemnation. Like a loving parent, His deepest desire is to find us and for us to allow Him to pick us up and carry us back to His fold.While this image is crucial for us to consider regarding our personal sins and God's love for us, it must also serve as a model for how we relate to others when they sin. As we grow closer to God and become more aware of His will and moral law, we might be tempted to judge others, especially within our own families. Though we must never downplay objective sin or become indifferent to the sins of others, we must also reject the role of judge and jury. Instead, we must become instruments of the Good Shepherd to those around us. With Christ, our only intention should be to go out to the lost, find them in their sin, love them despite their sin, and offer to carry them home. We must never reject a person because of his or her sin, even if the person remains obstinately attached to it. Reflect today on the burning compassion our Lord has for you, even when you sin. Never hesitate to turn back to Him and allow Him to carry you home, rejoicing all the way. Also, reflect on those you know who have strayed from God. Perhaps they no longer attend Mass, are living in an immoral relationship, vocally support something contrary to the Gospel, or struggle with an addiction or sinful attachment. Do not judge them—love them. Be an instrument of the Heart of Jesus for them so that, through you, they may sense the love Jesus has in His Heart for them. My most compassionate Jesus, You are the Good Shepherd Who never tires of pursuing Your straying sheep. Your deepest desire is to bring them home. When I stray, help me to remember Your burning love for me so that I will never hesitate to turn back to You. When others around me stray, please give me Your Heart, dear Lord, so that I may love them so deeply that You draw them out of their sin. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image via Adobe StockSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

One of the large churches in our area started a new building and they announced it would be for community outreach. But they did something I've never seen a church do before. They gathered the congregation around the just-completed foundation of that new building and they asked them to throw something into the foundation. Now you've no doubt seen people's names on the outside of a building's foundation, especially on the cornerstone. But these folks were actually putting names inside the foundation - the names of people they care about who don't belong to Jesus yet - people they are hoping and praying will be in heaven with them some day. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Names on Your Heart." That's what should be at the foundation of every church, every ministry, every child of God - the names of specific lost people who we want to rescue. Here's a great example of how it's supposed to work. It's in our word for today from the Word of God. In John 1:41-42, we find that a young fisherman named Andrew has just discovered Jesus Christ. Notice his very first instinct: "The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, 'We have found the Messiah'... And he brought him to Jesus." Notice the first thing that happened was that Andrew had a name laid on his heart, a specific person he wanted to meet Jesus as he had. And we all know what a world-changer Simon Peter turned out to be because of someone who loved him enough to bring him to Jesus. There's someone like that in your life - someone who may never make it to Jesus if you don't bring them. And God is trying to plant their name deep in the foundation of your heart, so that person becomes your own personal spiritual mission from God. You need to begin to pray what I call the 3-open prayer on their behalf right now: First, "Lord, open a door." That's a natural opportunity for you to bring up your personal relationship with Jesus. Then, "Lord, open their heart." In other words, do things in that person's heart or life that will make them surprisingly ready to hear about You. And, finally, "Lord, open my mouth." Give me the courage, the words, the tone, and the approach. Let's try those: "Lord, open a door. Lord, open their heart. Lord, open my mouth." By the way, you don't have to pray, "If it be Your will." It is. It's one thing to talk and pray generally about all those people out there. It's something else to have a burden with a name - a burden that acknowledges your personal responsibility to be the one to introduce that person to Jesus. That's why Jesus put you in their life in the first place! You've been divinely assigned to them. And lost people should be the consuming passion of every Christian church, every Christian ministry. Our Lord's personal mission statement was to "seek and to save what was lost" (Luke 19:10). How can ours be anything less than that? For all of us, it's just so easy to fall into doing what's easy - which is to have a ministry that's "all about us," "by us," "to us." But Jesus is all about "them." We've got to ask Him to help us see what He sees when He looks at the people all around us. They are the future inhabitants of hell, unless someone intervenes with the love and the hope that only Jesus has. So would you make the names of some lost people that you want to be in heaven with you part of the foundation of your life, your priorities, your passion, your prayer. They're why He came, and they are why He put you where you are.

Hannah Taylor is the fast-growing culinary creator known on TikTok and Instagram as LilyLouTay. She is the author of the New York Times Best Seller Measure with Your Heart, and she joins us in the studio with a really fun conversation about her Southern cooking roots and her journey from being a working mother of three to a social media megastar.   Also on the show, Mina Park and Kwang Uh of Baroo in Los Angeles take the Resy Questionnaire. It's impossible to overstate the devotion fans have to this restaurant, whether the strip-mall original, the pop-up, and even for the two long years Baroo didn't exist. This latest iteration is a rebirth of Kwang and Mina's vision of fermentation-driven Korean cuisine. But first, the questions.  The views expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers – not of Resy—and do not constitute professional advice. Learn more about your ad choices.
