When the pressures of today's world weigh heavily on the family unit, it takes wisdom and courage to steer through the storm. I had the privilege of conversing with Cheryl Lutz, a speaker and biblical counselor, and together, we unpacked the pivotal role of parents in fortifying their children against the tides of societal influence. Whether your family is navigating the waters of homeschooling, public, or private education, this episode offers invaluable guidance on aligning family strategies with biblical principles to combat the allure of false security that some educational environments might project.
The dance between faith and parenting is intricate and delicate, especially for families at the helm of church leadership. Cheryl and I examine the personal faith journey, underscoring the importance of cultivating one's relationship with God beyond inherited beliefs. We peel back the layers of the unique obstacles pastor's families face, from the magnified scrutiny to the siren song of people-pleasing, highlighting the need for a community that extends grace and uplifts through prayer. This episode serves as a candid reflection on the challenges and triumphs of raising a family in faith amidst a digitally driven society.
In our search for a haven within church walls, we draw inspiration from the historic unity of Roman soldiers to illustrate the strength found in Christian camaraderie. I emphasize the duty of church leaders to nurture a culture where tough conversations can be had with humility and honest dialogue. Addressing the struggles that young people confront, such as drug use and same-sex attraction, this discussion champions the church's role in offering a compassionate embrace rather than judgment, ensuring a sanctuary where every soul is guided and supported in their spiritual journey. Join us for a heartfelt exchange that empowers families to anchor their loved ones in faith and community.

Listen in as David and I tackle the distinctions between therapy and counseling, addressing the church's historical challenges in dealing with personal and familial issues.

Listen in as Charlene Quint, a family law attorney with a heart for aiding women through the turmoil of domestic abuse, shares not only her professional insights but also her personal experiences. Our conversation traverses the often misunderstood landscape of abuse, shining a light on the less visible forms such as emotional, verbal, and financial abuse, which can be prevalent even in communities of faith. Charlene opens up about the facade of perfection that can shroud abusive relationships, especially within Christian families, and underscores the urgent need for awareness and recognition of these destructive behaviors.
This episode takes a sobering look at the statistics that reflect the widespread issue of gender-based violence and the patterns of abuse that can span generations. We grapple with the complexities of breaking this cycle and the challenging choices that must be made to halt its perpetuation. Charlene thoughtfully discusses how faith and family values can sometimes be twisted to justify abuse, and she shares powerful testimonies of resilience and transformation. Our discussion serves as a reminder that abuse is not exclusive to any one gender or community and that the empowerment of victims is essential for change.
In our support-focused segment, we discuss the vital role churches can play in providing refuge and guidance for those facing domestic abuse. Charlene and I talk about the practical steps congregations can take to become sanctuaries of healing, from implementing emergency plans to educating leaders on the nuances of spiritual abuse. As we wrap up, I extend a heartfelt thanks to Charlene for her invaluable contributions and remind listeners to seek out her book, "Overcoming the Narcissist, Sociopath, Psychopath, and Other Domestic Abusers," for further enlightenment on this critical subject. Share this episode to help spread the message of hope and healing to those who need it most.
Charlene Quint is a family law attorney in the Chicago area who focuses her practice on helping women overcome domestic abuse. She wrote the multiple award-winning, ground-breaking book Overcoming the Narcissist, Sociopath, Psychopath, and Other Domestic Abusers to help victims of domestic abuse become the fearless victors they were designed to be. She is the founder of AbuseCare (www.abusecare.org), a nondenominational faith-based organization designed to provide hope and healing to women on their journey from victim to victorious and to educate and equip businesses and faith communities in caring for victims of domestic abuse.

Join me as I welcome the insightful David Price, a minister, and certified professional life coach, to discuss the essential question: Is there a right way to read the Bible? Our conversation covers the cultural hesitations surrounding the idea of a 'correct' method to engage with scripture, stressing the necessity of foundational rules to truly grasp its teachings. We confront the laissez-faire attitude that any reading approach is valid and consider the Bible's explicit nature, advocating for an understanding of the consistent message God imparts to all rather than cherry-picking truths that conveniently fit personal narratives.
Listen in as we explore the crucial role of context in interpreting the Bible and the dangers of reading verses in isolation. This episode sheds light on the common missteps readers may encounter and offers practical advice on approaching biblical study with the reverence it deserves. We delve into the importance of recognizing the Bible as the infallible Word of God and the principles of consistency, competency, and comprehensiveness in study habits. By committing to these principles, we can develop a deeper appreciation for scripture and a more robust understanding of its messages.
Lastly, we discuss the dynamic nature of faith and the responsibility of believers to discern truth and verify teachings against the Word of God. David and I touch on the challenges church leaders face when confronted with questions, highlighting the importance of patience and love in the journey toward truth. The episode wraps up with a call to embrace personal growth through openness to new perspectives and an acknowledgment of the evolution of our understanding.
I invite you to check out David's ministry.

Join me, Ruth Hovsepian, for a compelling conversation with Shara Neubert, a teaching pastor and discipleship director with an incredible background in women's ministry and leadership. Listen in as Shara shares her insightful strategies for overcoming the hurdles of engaging with the Bible, particularly when it's perceived as challenging or uninteresting. We tackle the importance of understanding one's purpose for reading scripture and how a sense of curiosity can be a powerful tool in creating a meaningful study practice. Shara also highlights the profound impact of leaving a spiritual legacy, a topic that resonates deeply as we discuss its influence not only within our families but across our broader communities.
In this session, I underscore the necessity of reading the Bible in its entirety, akin to how one would savor a novel, to truly grasp the narrative woven throughout its passages. As we explore texts like the Sermon on the Mount and the books of Genesis and Revelation, we discuss the value of patience and allowing for initial confusion, which later readings can clarify, connecting the Old and New Testaments in unexpected ways. I also stress the importance of being receptive to the Holy Spirit and the insights of fellow believers while trusting our own ability to learn from the scriptures. This chapter of our discussion is a reminder to approach the Bible with enthusiasm and commitment, fostering a habit of consistent engagement with the Word of God.
The final chapter of our exchange delves into the distinction between reading and studying the Bible, where I share my personal endeavor to read through different versions of the Bible within a month. We delve into the effective strategies for in-depth Bible study, including the importance of choosing the right materials and formats that resonate with one's learning style, the significance of creating a study schedule, and the lasting influence that visible study habits can have on those around us. Shara's coaching and workshops offer a beacon of inspiration for listeners aiming to integrate these practices into their daily lives, with the goal of making 2024 a year marked by spiritual growth and connection. Tune in for an inspiring session that will reignite your passion for religious exploration and the joy of sharing that journey with others.
Check out Shara's website, https://www.sharaneubert.com/, to find a Bible Engagement Assessment to take in order to see where you fall in your own satisfaction. It helps you to understand where you are at in 8 elements of Bible engagement: Reading, Bible Navigation, Prayer, Church Participation, Understanding, Use of Study Help, Joy in Reading, and Bible Study. Whew! There are lots of areas, but all are very useful in having a balanced Bible life.

Join me, your host Ruth Hovsepian, as I welcome the remarkable Athena Dean Holtz in a compelling conversation about the often-unseen New Age influences sneaking into Christian circles. Athena, with her rich background in publishing and as a spiritual abuse survivor, brings to light the concerning aspects of the popular show "The Chosen," including its Mormon funding and how it might blur the lines of theological understanding. Listen in as we unpack the potential risks of these influences and the importance of scriptural knowledge to discern the truth in our faith communities.
In our heartfelt discussion, we tackle the pitfalls of superficial engagement with the Bible and the dangers of the prosperity gospel and other false teachings. With an emphasis on deep scriptural understanding and reflection, I share personal experiences of spiritual abuse and highlight the need for a true, humble approach to faith that mirrors the life of Jesus. This chapter is a clarion call for believers to arm themselves with wisdom and discernment to combat misleading ideologies that can ensnare even the most devout followers.
The episode wraps up with a critical look at the phenomenon of celebrity worship within the church and the paramount importance of discernment in spiritual leadership. I underscore the responsibility each believer holds as a gatekeeper of their faith to ensure teachings and leadership align with the fear and holiness of God. Our conversation also addresses the aftermath of publicized scandals and the caution necessary when selecting spiritual resources. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Athena for her insights and invite you, our listeners, to engage with these pressing issues for a faith that is vigilant and informed.

Donna and I discuss the many ways self-sabotage can manifest in our lives, such as perfectionism, pessimism, procrastination, disorganization, over-commitment, and burnout. We also talk about the importance of being cognizant and respectful of our own limitations and not feeling guilty when we aren't able to commit to certain tasks.
We touch on the stigma of therapy and how the Holy Spirit can help us along our healing journey. Finally, we discuss how God doesn't look at us with condemnation or disdain and how Jesus already paid the price for our sins. Even in our darkest moments, we can remember that the promise of eternity with Him is what awaits us.

✔100 Days of Prayer by Ruth Hovsepian - https://www.ruthhovsepian.com/100daysofprayer
Our guest today is Patti Townley-Covert. Her message and greatest desire are to see women, especially young adult women, come out of the darkness of cultural lies about self-image, sexuality, and justice issues and find the freedom of biblical truth through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Today, narcissism and self-esteem form the core of a person’s identity. Cheap sex destroys intimacy and faithfulness. Man defines “Justice” in ways that lead to increasing injustice. A biblical worldview can right these wrongs and replace individual brokenness with wholeness.
Patti Townly-Covert is an award-winning freelance writer and editor, the author of The Windblown Girl: A Memoir about Self, Sexuality, and Social Issues. Concern for young adults trying to escape life’s pain infused this page-turner with a message relevant for today.
Patti’s written numerous magazine articles for national and international publications such as Life Beautiful, HyVee, Thriving Family, and Facts and Trends. As a founding member of the anti-human trafficking organization, Every ONE Free, Patti co-wrote Do ONE Thing: Enlisting in the Battle Against Human Trafficking. Most of her research and writing focus on justice issues. Her bi-weekly blog focuses on self, sexuality, and social issues.
Key Takeaways from this episode:
✔ Confidence in being made in God’s image gives people a valuable & stable identity that keeps them standing when life’s fierce winds blow.
✔ Cultural lies about sex increase chaos and brokenness, whereas God’s boundaries lead to self-worth, genuine intimacy, and trustworthy relationships.
✔ As defined by culture, social justice leads to increasing injustice, whereas dying to self and living according to a biblical worldview promotes true justice and equality.

We look at the importance of being able to speak life into other mothers and the need to cultivate meaningful connections to encourage each other. We explore the importance of motherhood, the struggles of guilt that moms often experience, and how God can use our decisions and experiences, even if they may not have been the best decisions. We also discuss the power of prayer, even when our children are grown and living in other states.
You won't want to miss this conversation! Pull up a chair and join us.

100 Days of Prayer by Ruth Hovsepian - https://www.ruthhovsepian.com/100daysofprayer
Tamika Thomas is a Certified Life & Relationship Coach, Author, Speaker, and the Tuesday with Tamika podcast host. Tamika is a follower of Jesus Christ and believes she has been called to help women HEAL, ELEVATE, and become RESTORED (H.E.R.). Tamika strives to live authentically and with an open heart, showing love to everybody who crosses her path.
Tamika is married and has a blended family that includes eight children. Tamika is the oldest of 11 children and the child of a drug-addicted teen mother. As a young child, she was sexually and physically abused, eventually turning to unhealthy relationships hoping to feel the love she didn't receive as a child.
After two unsuccessful marriages and a multitude of stress, Tamika suffered a STROKE. Fortunately, she made the leap of faith to no longer use her life's hurts and tragedies as crutches to cripple her but instead use her misfortunes as stairs - stairs to get her to the next level. It is at this new level that she truly begins to bloom.
Today she lives her life to empower. She believes God has called her to bridge troubled water, helping connect others to their power source. She is dedicated and determined to show others how they can turn their trials into treasures.
Three keys to success (things that prevent us from healing):
- Performing the role expected of us and not who we are.
- Trying to be perfect, fitting into someone else’s perfect.
- Pretending that the hurt is not there.
Key Takeaways from this episode:
- How you THINK determines who you are and what you will produce. Your mind is the soil by which everything grows; if you think well, you will be well.
- Take inventory of your TRIBE. You can only become as powerful as the people you surround yourself with.
- Explore the power of Taking Action. God honors movement

How often in your life have you been hurt by someone? By something they said or by something they did? How often have you been unable to forgive those hurts? How often have you said you have forgiven them but then something triggers you and brings that past hurt right back into your life?
Join me today as I walk you through the four steps of forgiveness. And let me remind you that forgiveness is not easy. It’s a long process as we are not wired to forgive. But forgiveness is what we do for ourselves. Forgiveness is about freedom. Forgiveness is about your freedom. You want to forgive so you can be the best version of yourself.
So friend I ask you, are you ready to walk alongside God and work on forgiveness so you can set yourself free from the confines of your past hurts?
Key Takeaways from this episode:
- What is forgiveness?
- What are the four steps to forgiveness?
- What triggers you have that indicates a past hurt hasn’t been healed
- How forgiveness is freedom - your freedom
- To really forgive we have to forgive the way God tells us

100 Days of Prayer by Ruth Hovsepian - https://www.ruthhovsepian.com/100daysofprayer
Addictions are difficult to overcome. Especially when you break them alone.
Today, I share with you who I am and why I find it so important to help Christians navigate a world that can often feel anti-God, anti-bible and anti-faith.
It is because of God’s redeeming grace and the prayers of my family that I stand before you today. I focused my energy on studying the bible and praying during my recovery, and each day has brought me closer to God and my journey to healing.
I’ve walked the path of divorce and single parenting which led me down a path of alcohol and sexual addiction. It is now my goal and desire to inspire and motivate others on their journey to recovery and survival.
My prayer journey started tentatively, and your path may look different than mine, but that is the beauty of this journey; we are headed to the same destination. If you are ready - press play and join me on this God-filled journey.
Key takeaways from this episode:
- Get to know Ruth Hovsepian
- The struggles Ruth has gone through in her life
- How addiction shaped who Ruth has become today
- How God has played a pivotal role in where Ruth is today
