I Just Want to Be Included

I continue my discussion with Sarah Steinhauser and talk about ways to build bridges between the Christian and Queer communities.

Sarah Steinhauser is back and we talk about her experience coming out as queer after growing up in a Christian family.

Today I share a few thoughts on the season we are in. What importance tradition plays in the holiday verses Jesus's mission to challenge tradition.

Today I talk with Sarah Steinhauser, co-founder of Queer Families of Livingston County. We talk about navigating the holidays as a queer person or a support person. The holidays are stressful. They become even more stressful when you are around people who do not agree or want to acknowledge your coming out. Sarah has great tips to be proactive and deal with anxiety before walking into these situations.

Kristy and I continue our conversation about the existing system in Michigan to get kids mental health care.

Today I talk with my friend Kristy about the experiences they've had trying to get their daughter help for her mental health issues. Learn what happens when you take your child to a Psych ER and try to get them help.

Sarah and I continue our conversation about helping kids with mental health issues. We discuss finding the right kind of help while trying to take care of ourselves. It's another open and honest conversation between friends!

My friend Sarah is back and we talk about dealing with kid's mental health struggles from a parenting perspective. This is a daunting task and one that requires a lot of patience along with advocacy. Join us for another open and honest conversation about parenting.

Sarah and I continue our conversation about making churches a safe place for people who are struggling with mental health issues.

This is an open and honest discussion about churches and their ability to help people dealing with mental health issues. If we are going to be Jesus in this world, we need to listen to people and meet them where they are at. Creating safe spaces where people can struggle and get support is imperative if we are going to accomplish the mission Chris left us.
