Friends,

In this episode, my guest, Allison Brown, and I delve into the intertwined experiences of faith, grief, and forgiveness. We explore how faith can be both a source of comfort and struggle, particularly in the face of miscarriage—a topic often shrouded in stigma and silence.

Allison reveals how the child loss has shaped her understanding of joy amidst suffering and the transformative power of forgiveness.

She discusses how having healthy boundaries with self and others have helped her overcome trauma. 

We address the often-overlooked pain of miscarriage within the church and in communities and the healing that can come from sharing these stories.

Friends,

In the next two episodes, I am on the other side of the microphone as a guest with Jean and Colin MacKenzie, hosts of the podcast, Connected Conversations with Holy Union Connect. I share my insights on misconceptions about forgiveness, the intersection of faith and science, and the transformative power of leaning into the Holy Spirit for guidance. We explore the nuances of unresolved childhood trauma and its impact on marriage. This episode offers valuable tools and encouragement for couples striving to overcome struggles and embrace forgiveness as a journey rather than a destination.

As a couple with over 30 years of military and family life experience, Jean and Colin have navigated their share of struggles and triumphs. In their podcast, they share the wisdom of the Catholic faith, and practical strategies for building strong, faith-filled marriages. The MacKenzies help couples fight for their marriages with purpose and offer encouragement and tools to strengthen the bonds between husbands and wives.

Friends,

In this episode, I reflect on my Lenten journey with the KNOWN program and my quest to have a deeper relationship with The Father. I talk about the findings of the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study that emphasize the impact one caring adult can have on the future outcomes for children in trauma.  I tell about my uncle Isaac John Michaels, who represents the love of the Father that I so needed as a young child exposed to domestic violence. I pay tribute to him by reading an excerpt from my book, With You Always, A Journey with Jesus titled, Tending the Garden. I conclude with words of encouragement from scripture and a request to share the story of your one adult

Friends,

In today's episode, I speak with author and domestic abuse survivor Shelley Edwards Jorgensen. Shelley shares her traumatic experiences growing up amidst domestic violence, culminating in the tragic murder of her mother by her father. Through her narrative, we explore the complex dynamics of familial abuse and the burdens it places on children.

Drawing from her book Beautiful Ashes: A True Story of Murder, Betrayal, and One Woman's Search for Peace, Shelley recounts heartbreaking moments from her past and discusses how faith and forgiveness played a pivotal role in her healing journey. This episode is a testament to overcoming unimaginable adversity, guided by the belief that where sin abounds, grace abounds even more.

Join us next week for Part Two of Shelley's story, where she delves into the lessons learned and her profound understanding of forgiveness.

He holds a Ph.D. in Philosophy from Rome’s Pontifical University Regina Apostolorum. Fr. Tom’s work centers on seminarian formation and healing those wounded by clergy sexual abuse.
