Welcome to Episode 124 of the Warrior Words podcast!

In the podcast title, I said this was a little different. And that's true. I have no guest this week to share a story of triumphing over suffering.

But there are elements of similarity.

There is suffering, but those being discussed can no longer use their own voices.

Harper, Fletcher, Sophia (recovering), Iryna, Julie, and Charlie

This is NOT a political episode!

This is a human episode, and there is beauty.

Voices may have been silenced, but hope, value, dignity, and worth live on. Purpose lives on.

Love lives on.

Live in love and honor the inherent dignity in all.

Armor Up.

Fight the Good Fight.

Seek Beauty.

I would love your help with my call-to-action at the end of the episode!

This is the Ko-Fi link I mentioned. You can make a direct donation or purchase anything from the shop to help us get started. I think this is a wonderful way to respond positively to events that bring sadness. Working toward love helps to combat sadness, hopelessness, and despair.

Ko-Fi (The explanation is in the left column, and the donation is top right. The shop can be accessed below that or through the navigation bar.)

Thank you in advance for your generosity!

Welcome to Episode 123 of the Warrior Words podcast!

In this short Bits of Biblical Beauty (BoBB) episode, I talk about Jesus' guest list for a banquet or feast. To be honest, creating a guest list for a family member's wedding with this in mind would be rather difficult. But I guess that's the point of many of His commands. They're not supposed to be easy.

Armor Up.

Fight the Good Fight.

Seek Beauty.

Welcome to Episode 122 of the Warrior Words podcast!

It's {almost} fall. I really enjoyed the Summer Rewind over the last ten weeks. It was wonderful to revisit these conversations.

Now I want to introduce you to Allison Brown. She shares - from across the continents - her story of chronic illness that started when she was a child. It's been 30 years.

Over the last 30 years, she has battled the illness itself, but, in addition, the side effects that accompany her illness: anxiety, depression, and more.

This conversation is something many of us can relate to, plus, it's one that can help us learn to respond with compassion when someone is dealing with a situation we may not understand.

Welcome to Episode 121 of the Warrior Words podcast!

In this short Bits of Biblical Beauty (BoBB) episode, I talk about the Beauty of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit was the part of the Trinity that I honestly didn't pay much attention to, and then I wondered why I didn't hear from God... Let's talk about the gifts of free will and the Holy Spirit's guidance.

Welcome to Episode 119 of the Warrior Words podcast!

In this short Bits of Biblical Beauty (BoBB) episode, I talk about the Beauty of Discipline. That's not a word most of us would associate with beauty. But as Holy Scripture points out, God is a loving Father, and what father wouldn't discipline his child in order to teach his child? Discipline hurts in the moment; sometimes longer. But it is ultimately for our own good.

Welcome to Episode 117 of the Warrior Words podcast!

In this short Bits of Biblical Beauty (BoBB) episode, I talk about the Beauty of Help. We all fall into sadness and despair. We may even fall, or push ourselves, into the pit of despair. There are many things we can't get out of on our own. We need help from others and from God.
