    How to Forgive Your Family of Origin with Adam Young

    How to Forgive Your Family of Origin with Adam Young

    Fund Conversations that Matter: donate.accessmore.com

    Many of us experienced neglect and abuse from our family of origin–the people, whether parents, grandparents, or other caregivers, that raised us. Some of us might suspect that things happened to us but aren’t really sure, and some are very aware of the abuse and neglect brought on by our parents or even that we were over-parented or too sheltered. How do we move toward forgiveness when it comes to the pain that was brought on by the people who are supposed to love and protect us the most?
    Our guest, Adam Young, a licensed trauma therapist and host of the podcast The Place We Find Ourselves, joins us to discuss this critical topic.

    Understanding The Cost of Forgiveness

    Understanding The Cost of Forgiveness

    Fund Conversations that Matter: donate.accessmore.com

    Forgiveness sounds good on paper, and it is a command in the Bible, but in reality, it is so hard. Why is that? Sometimes, our perspective is that it isn’t fair, and we feel like we’re letting the person off the hook when we forgive. How can we change our perspective on forgiveness to be more willing to embrace it? 
    Today, we cover three main points: 
    1) What forgiveness costs us
    2) How to change your perspective on forgiveness
    3) What the Biblical perspective on forgiveness is really about

    How to Model Courage for Your Kids

    How to Model Courage for Your Kids

    Fund Conversations that Matter: donate.accessmore.com

    Our children face daily challenges, from friendships to interactions with teachers, coaches and potentially strained family relations. They need us to help them understand, experience, and model courage.
    However, showing courage can be scary. We often admire courage in others but struggle to find it within ourselves. How can we guide our kids in learning courage when we sometimes feel we lack it?
    In this episode, we discuss three key areas:
    The first step is to model courage for our kids.
    Understanding why showing courage can be intimidating.
    Practical ways to demonstrate courage for your children's benefit.
    Join us as we navigate these questions, aiming to help our children - and ourselves - grow in courage and resilience.

So helpful!

Love this podcast so much. So thankful for finding it in this season I am. It encourages me and reminds me I am not alone and that others are going through similar journeys. Also it gives me hope for a brighter future. Can’t wait for Mondays.

Best way to start my week!

I love this podcast and this ministry. My favorite part is waiting to hear what outrageous example Robert Beeson uses as a reason to bring up the show notes.
