Show notes

This week, the holiday season begins, and along with that often comes wonderful holiday gatherings. But in many cases, those family gatherings might be awkward. If you're headed into this week thinking, "I hate how politically charged family gatherings become. How do I dodge these situations?" or "I love my family, but they drive me nuts at holiday dinners," this is the conversation for you. But we can't ignore the reality that for some of you, you're hiding tears, thinking, "I am alone during the holidays, and really get depressed. I'd give anything to have a family dinner, even if it's crazy." Joining us this week is my dear friend, Dr. John Delony, a regular co-host of "The Dave Ramsey Show." We're going to have some fun, but we're also going to equip you to step into this holiday season with confidence and empathy.

269: How to Un-Complicate Prayer and What's in a Deeply Formed Life (feat. Rich Villodas) Nov 17, 2021

Show notes

This week, we're talking about how to develop a habit of uncomplicated prayer, and how to establish and live a deeply formed life. Rich Villodas joins us today. And in preparation for this conversation, I Googled the phrase "Why am I." And what followed was no surprise at all: "Why am I so tired" and "Why am I always tired." So, I'd like to propose that one of the contributing factors to our chronic exhaustion is the fact that we are carrying burdens we should be laying down. And learning how to do that consistently is at the foundation of the deeply formed life.

266: Core Issues of the Soul, a Fresh Perspective on Grief and Loss, and The Soul of Desire (feat. Curt Thompson, M.D.) Nov 03, 2021

Show notes

This week, we're joined by my good friend, psychiatrist, and author, Dr. Curt Thompson. About today's conversation, Curt said, "Most of our well-intended attempts to counter the storms of our inner and outer lives involve identifying our problems and devising solutions for them. But in our hurry to diagnose and treat our diseases of the soul, we are often outrun by the very fear that is driving us to identify and resolve them." This is perhaps one of the most emotional episodes I've ever recorded, but there's a holistic approach to understanding shame, loss, trauma, and our souls' deepest desire that I trust will bring a fresh perspective and hope to you today, so buckle up.
