Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”

Facing the world today can sometimes feel like standing at the edge of a cliff, with the winds of cultural and spiritual turmoil threatening to push us over. Join me, Jack Rigert, as we navigate these tempestuous times, guided by the wisdom of Pope John Paul II and the poignant biblical story of Christ's encounter with the rich young man. This episode is a heartfelt call to the youth, and to all who mentor them, to recognize the fine line between the allure of kindness and the necessity of robust love—a love that doesn't shy away from the truth. Stories of young women grappling with identity and self-worth serve as our compass, leading us to understand how true compassion is the beacon that guides us towards redemption and an authentic sense of self.

As we seek direction in life, it's easy to be blinded by the glare of materialism and the hollow pursuit of status symbols. But what happens when we look beyond these distractions to the horizon of eternal life? I'll share the insights of Carl Jung and the powerful narrative of Prisha Mosley, a detransitioner whose experience raises a flag of caution for the medical community. Together, we'll consider the responsibilities of those who shape young lives and the profound impact of decisions made in the absence of reality's firm grip. Whether it's the quest for identity or the search for spiritual meaning, this episode is a journey into the depths of what it means to truly connect with others and embrace a life illuminated by truth and purpose.
