Follow the show: The Oprah Podcast Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@Oprah?sub_confirmation=1 New York Times best-selling author Kathryn Stockett talks with Oprah about her long-awaited novel The Calamity Club. She reveals how daunting it was to write a second novel in the wake of the success and the criticism of her smash debut hit The Help. The book sold over fifteen million copies, rose to number one and was on the best-seller list for more than two years. In 2011 it became a hit movie garnering four Oscar nominations and an Oscar win for Octavia Spencer as Best Supporting Actress. In The Calamity Club Kathryn shifts her perspective and writes a coming-of-age story set in the Depression era South about its two main characters Birdie and Meg. Kathryn explains how the cast of characters live inside her and yearn for expression through her written word. She shares her desire to tackle shocking challenges that women faced during that time. She says eventually the story evolved into an adventure about a group of bold, unbreakable women who overcome incredible hardships to reclaim their lives. The camaraderie, courage, resilience and the love between these characters will have you crying one page and laughing out loud the next.

    Episode 122 - The Theology That Was Slowly Killing with Brit Windel

    He spent years preaching that God loved everyone else…… but secretly struggled to believe it for himself! In this deeply honest episode of the Fit Disciple Podcast, Pastor Brett Wendell shares the story behind losing more than 200 pounds and why the transformation had far more to do with identity than appearance. From church planting and ministry burnout to food addiction, shame, self-worth, and finally confronting the belief that he was somehow excluded from the grace he preached to others every week. Brett opens up about reaching over 430 pounds, struggling to breathe, preach, sleep, and physically keep up with the calling God had placed on his life. But underneath the physical struggle was something even heavier: the belief that he was valuable for serving people, but not truly worthy of being loved himself.… this conversation goes deep. In this episode you will learn more about: • Faith & fitness • Stewardship of the body • Emotional eating • Pastoral burnout • Discipline & accountability • Identity & sonship • Learning to receive the love of God personally Let's live well for Christ not just wait for death.
