  • Enough About Me a Conversation with Jen Oshman
    “Who am I? What is my purpose? I thought I could have it all and I do. But
    I am restless, I feel like I’m missing something.”
    Statistics show many American women are weary, struggle with depression,
    and self-medicate with alcohol, flattery, and more. Suicide rates for women
    are on the rise. What’s happening? More importantly, what’s the resolution?
    In this conversation, Jen Oshman, author of Enough About Me and Help & Hope
    host Sharon Betters talk about the problem, the diagnosis, and the
    treatment for this low-grade anxiety that often disrupts our thinking,
    whether in joyful or sorrowful seasons.
    In her book, Jen says, “We 21st century women have been running on
    ourselves, rather than on our God. We've been running on self-help,
    self-empowerment, and self-actualization. The fuel of self has run out, and
    that's why we're tired, discouraged, and even in crisis. Enough about me.
    And enough about you. If we want to keep running, we need to run on the
    fuel we're made for - God himself. We will indeed be restless until then.”
    (Enough About Me, Find Lasting Joy in the Age of Self, Jen Oshman, Page 48)
    Friends, join Jen and Sharon as they talk frankly about the reasons for the
    restlessness and dissatisfaction in a culture that demands we “do it all”
    and how do we find our way back to God’s purpose for each of us.

  • Schizophrenia - Through a Mother’s Eyes a Conversation with Simonetta Carr
    When a son, sister, or grandchild begins to behave in unexpected and
    disturbing ways, family members hope it is simply a phase. For some, it is
    instead a life-time illness – schizophrenia.
    The diagnosis of schizophrenia can bring shock, fear, and worry to everyone
    involved. But in the midst of the numerous challenges, hope doesn’t have to
    die. (Broken Pieces and the God Who Mends Them by Simonetta Carr)
    In this conversation with Sharon Betters, Simonetta Carr shares the story
    of her beloved son, Jonathan, and her experience of caring for him as he
    struggled with schizophrenia. Simonetta doesn’t sugarcoat the enormous
    challenges and emotions that were non-stop. She talks about how she
    fervently prayed for Jonathan, the fears she had to confront, and how the
    church came alongside Jonathan and her in this battle. You may not have a
    loved one with schizophrenia but Simonetta and Jonathan’s story will give
    you insight into the enormous battle facing families with such a diagnosis.
    You can learn more about schizophrenia and find numerous helpful resources
    in Simonetta’s book, Broken Pieces and the God Who Mends Them,
    Schizophrenia Through a Mother’s Eyes.
