Think of the most resilient person you know.
Now, allow me to introduce my cousin Meredith Harris to you.
Meredith recently shared her story at her church - and I was so moved and proud of her that I wanted to share it with as many people as possible. Take a listen, and I know you'll feel the same way.

Christians are called to be salt and light in our culture, but the American church has grown apathetic in the stewardship of our rights and liberties.
On this episode of Truth Talk Live, I invited Bunni Pounds, founder and president of Christians Engaged to discuss the importance of voting and what her organization is doing to educate on this topic from a Biblical viewpoint.

Each Weds' I host a live program titled TRUTH TALK LIVE. In this episode, I interviewed Chad and James Hampton from Huntin' the Truth" Ministry.

"A passion for God and hunting: these two passions have shaped the lives and ministries of Pastors Chad and James Hampton. Teaching men and women principles from their nationally recognized book “Secretes of the Hunt” on how to ‘hunt’ for God like they hunt for animals is at the center of the “Huntin the Truth Ministries” that was established in 2005. Chad and James travel across the United States and speak at seminars, wild game dinners, hunting camps, prayer breakfasts, youth, young adult, men’s ministry, and outdoor events, along with preaching in churches."

Jochen (Jack)( Wurfl (92) shares his astonishing story of losing his family in the holocaust, coming to America, and his thoughts on patriotism, freedom, Israel, anti-semitism, and life.
Jack was born in 1932 in Germany to his Jewish mother and Catholic father, and lived in Austria until 1936. Anticipating Hitler's invasion of Austria, his parents sent Jack and his brother, Peter, back to Germany to live with their Jewish grandparents in Berlin.
As Hitler's persecution of the Jews intensified, Jack's grandfather sneaked the boys into hiding at a children's summer camp in the resort village of Dangast, 200 miles northwest of Berlin on the North Sea. The camp was operated by a brave and sympathetic German woman named Irma Franzen-Heinrichsdorff.
Jack and Peter lived with "Tante Irma" for twelve years, where they survived bombing raids, SS police surveillance, and food shortages. Their mother died in Auschwitz. Their father, a political prisoner in the Mauthausen concentration camp, died shortly after his liberation after World War II ended.

As a caregiver, if you go to church - why?
If not, why not?
I know what scripture says about church, but I am asking you as a caregiver: why are you doing it or not doing it?
In this episode I discuss this and what church means to me - along with some improvement opportunities when it relates to those who suffer - and those who care for them.

A powerful analogy between the chaos at the southern border and the personal consequences of not maintaining clear boundaries. Those who oppose boundaries often do so because they benefit from their absence. Failing to establish and maintain boundaries doesn't make us victims—it makes us volunteers. I explore how beliefs shape our approach to boundaries, urging listeners to take responsibility for protecting what matters most in their lives.

A Match Made In Heaving
August 16th is our anniversary, and I'd like to take a moment to share the story of how Gracie and I met. This tale has it all: romance, humor, a bit of horror, and a lot of love.
We had mutual friends at Belmont University who thought we should meet. I was a senior, though my transfer credits were all messed up, so I didn't graduate that year. Gracie had just returned to school after recovering from a severe car wreck. When they told me she had a wreck, I didn't have any frame of reference. I had never been in a relationship with someone who was hurt. They said, "She had a pretty bad wreck, and she's back now after a year of recovering." I thought, "Okay, how bad can it be?"
I found out soon enough when she came down the walkway at the Student Center. She was a vocal performance major, and I studied composition and piano. This girl was beautiful, but she had a significant limp. She walked up to me, having heard about me, and wanted to test me out. I stood to greet her, and she said, "Can I put my feet up in your lap?" Odd question, right? But I said okay.
Her feet swelled when she sat, so she had to prop them up. She later informed me that she plopped her feet in my lap to see how I'd handle it. The first of many times she pushed the envelope with me to see how I would cope. Click to read the rest at peterrosenberger.com

While a change of scenery can ease the heartache and struggles of our lives, it’s pointless if we pack our resentments and bitterness for the trip. We live ninety miles north of one of the most beautiful places in the world: Yellowstone National Park. Yet, despite Yellowstone National Park’s pristine and soul-stirring beauty, visitors still bring their drama to the faraway fields of bison and Old Faithful. A sad set of statistics for the world’s first national park is the number of drunk drivers and domestic abuse cases handled yearly.
Park rangers will undoubtedly affirm that people pack their strife with them—misery’s jurisdiction doesn’t end at any park’s borders.
It’s hard to imagine saving up all year long and going to the trouble of traveling so far, only to end up standing in front of one of the federal judges in the park.
While tempted to express disapproval of those arrested for such things in Yellowstone Park, how is that different for many caregivers who think a change of scenery—or circumstances—can serve as an antidote for discord?
Yet, if misery can be carried, it can also be put down.
There is no vacation destination that will cure bitterness. The spectacular cannot accomplish what we refuse to implement. We can better appreciate the beauty in different locations once we choose to experience them in our current situation.
The world is full of people looking for spectacular happiness
while they snub contentment.
— Doug Larson

"No matter what the circumstances, we Christians should keep our heads. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind. It is a dismal thing to see a son of heaven cringe in terror before the sons of earth." - AW TOZER
All too many caregivers feel pulled in so many directions that we second guess ourselves - while listening to those we shouldn't. In this episode, I share how our experience becomes a more reliable voice of counsel.
