Hey friends,

I’m excited to share an important update on the Disarming Leviathan podcast! We are in the midst of recording a series of interviews that will be released in 2025, featuring incredible guests like Sky Jethani, Amy Hawk, Megan Good, Jim Wallace, and many more engaging voices.

I can’t wait for you to hear these episodes, which we aim to drop in January and February of 2025. I also want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all who have generously supported the ministry of Disarming Leviathan. Every dollar you donate is directly invested back into the ministry to help create this podcast.

On average, each episode costs around a hundred dollars to produce. This figure accounts for expenses like sound engineers, hosting, and the subscription services we rely on to edit and distribute our episodes effectively.

Your generosity makes a real difference!

If you feel moved to contribute, please consider supporting the Disarming Leviathan ministry at disarmingleviathan.com, or by purchasing a paid subscription to our Substack.

I can’t wait to reconnect in 2025 when we roll out some fresh, thought-provoking content for you.

Thank you!

We will be sharing a curated selection of new and rereleased episodes of the pod to empower you to navigate this election season. In this episode, Phil Herndon examines how purveyors of American Christian Nationalism leverage the emotions of their audiences to gain allegiance, power, and money.

This episode will not only help you recognize when your loved ones are experiencing emotions like rage, anxiety, and fear, but also provide you with practical tools for fostering peaceful, constructive conversations.

About Phil

Phil uses a dynamic approach to help his clients recover their hearts and redeem their stories. His therapeutic approach is grounded in the Spiritual Root System™, and is informed by the work of Irvin Yalom, Curt Thompson, Dan Siegel, and Dan Allender. He also integrates perspectives from Judeo-Christian traditions, existential philosophy, and pastoral care. Phil works with individuals who have lost their way through addiction, anxiety, depression, struggles with spirituality, or burnout to walk them through the tumultuous and scary times that are so common to the human experience.

Phil worked in the trucking business through college and after college until finally realizing his true passion was helping people walk through difficulties and heartache. He completed graduate school in 1992 with a Master of Arts degree in counseling and religious education.

He served as a pastor in Texas for 15 years until joining the Center for Professional Excellence in 2005 where he served as Clinical Director until 2020. Phil became the Clinical Director and co-owner of (what is now) River Tree in 2020 and loves his role in developing, encouraging, and equipping the staff as they walk with people through their life journeys.
