    Unseen Interlude

    In this special interlude episode, we provide a candid update on the journey of our podcast. After the release of our first episode earlier this year, life’s demands have kept us from maintaining the consistency and quality we envision. As a completely volunteer-run effort with full-time jobs, families, and ministry commitments, we’ve faced challenges balancing the high standards we set for this creative and engaging space.Before sharing our next episode—a recording from a recent gathering where we processed life since the election—we wanted to thank you for your patience and explain the delay. We’re working towards a sustainable approach for season two that honors our mission without overextending our team.Thank you for standing with us and for celebrating the unseen stories that matter. Stay tuned!

    Unseen Influences

    Today we have a heavy and necessary conversation with two Unseen Leaders Tiffany Sainvil and Jawanza Fenelus. In this episode we will be looking at the Montgomery Brawl and the recent Jacksonville, FL shooting through a biblical grid. These two incidents both have pain, fallout and racial violence in common but they also speak of the spiritual influence that was under the surface for both events. Tiffany and Jawanza throughout this episode will introduce both stories for anyone who hasn't heard of them, grieve, and attempt to approach these topics with grace and truth.***TRIGGER WARNING*** This conversation touches on topics of suicide along with racial violence and may be difficult to engage in for some but we invite you into this conversation towards a journey to heal and seek God's kingdom in the midst of brokenness.CONNECT WITH UNSEEN COLLECTIVE:Follow us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/officialunseencollective/Join an Unseen Collective Online Gathering:https://linktr.ee/officialunseencollectiveCREDITS:Theme Song and Additional Music: Causmic https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCptYdIghPgmOl8opbjZrcuA

This episode will address aging from their perspectives as they talk through how they've observed the older generations processing aging and how the youth today are processing their youth. How can we fully live in today without the temptation to resent our present or compare ourselves to the other generations?
