Some wounds don’t start with fear. They start with the moment you realize you crossed a line, followed an order, couldn’t stop what happened, or lived through something that still feels unforgivable. That’s the heart of “moral injury,” and it’s why I invited Navy chaplain Larry Brant onto the show. Larry joined the Navy at 45, deployed with Marines in...

The result isn’t a gimmick. It’s a practical, emotional, faith-rooted conversation about...

Black mold is not a scary headline, it can be a life-altering reality. Jeffrey Bowen joins me to walk through what happened after years of exposure in a poorly maintained office HVAC system, how it spiraled into chronic illness symptoms like crushing fatigue, pain, headaches, memory issues, and insomnia, and why getting answers can be so hard when you’re living...
