Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

For the One...Who Loves Jesus & Has a Homosexual Child
Q: How did your faith influence your initial reaction when your son came out?
I chose to respond with love and to acknowledge fear and grief while reaffirming my commitment to my child, believing that love and faith could coexist even when the situation challenged my previous beliefs.
For the One...Who Is Grieving
Q: What would you say to someone who is hesitant to seek help for grief or mental health within a faith community?
She encourages viewing seeking support as a strength and a normal part of being human, highlighting that community, professional help, and spiritual practices can coexist to foster healing.
For the One...Who Is Grieving
Q: Tell us how you got into counseling and how your faith intersects with your work.
Amanda shares that personal trauma inspired her path into counseling, and she emphasizes blending faith with neuroscience and professional practice to help people process loss in a constructive, hopeful way.
For the One… Who Is Impacted By Addiction
Q: What distinguishes a teenager's recovery path from an adult's, and what guidance do you offer parents?
Avoid knee-jerk reactions, create open communication, consider drug testing if needed, seek professional advice early, and explore recovery-focused schooling and long-term treatment options rather than quick, short programs.
For the One… Who Is Impacted By Addiction
Q: How would someone know they need professional help like you, and how would they seek it?
If a family feels overwhelmed or suspects addiction, they can start with a phone call or search for local intervention resources; professionals can guide them through planning and executing an intervention or connect them to coaching programs.
