How many of you can distinctly remember a soul-stabbing comment made about you by someone you cared about or wish cared about you? Do you still feel the pain of that many years later? What if YOU are the one saying hateful things about yourself, like, "I am so stupid! I am so fat!"

The Bible has a lot to say about our words, because they matter more than we realize. We have the opportunity each new day to speak life, health, and prosperity over ourselves, our families, and our situations. In the same way, we have opportunities each day to speak death, destruction, and lack. We can come into agreement with Jesus and what He says about us, or come into agreement with satan, who only wants to steal, kill, and destroy us. Listen in as Tiffany Jo Baker discusses the power of creating confessions and daily declaring God's truth over ourselves every single day.

Listen in for:

• Why what we speak over ourselves can make a difference
• What God says about our words in the Bible
• How we can use Scripture to create daily life-giving confessions

Favorite Quotes:

"You, too, can create daily declarations. If there's a subject or a thing going on in your life, find what the Word says and speak it out daily." - Tiffany Jo Baker

"The old nursery rhyme, 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me!' is a lie from the pit of hell!" - Tiffany Jo Baker

Favorite Scripture:

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit." - Proverbs 18:21

When we get born again, we receive a new nature and become as perfect and flawless in God’s eyes as Jesus, Himself. God sees everyone who has accepted Christ as completely righteous. However, we’ll still continue falling short and committing sinful acts while on our Christian journey. The difference between the old and the new is that God no longer holds our sins against us because our old, sinful selves have died. We’re not what we do, and we don’t become sinners again when we sin; our new identity is based in Jesus, not in Adam.

Words are not just for communication—they shape civilizations. They define truth, identity, and purpose. They are the load-bearing beams of a society’s moral structure. And when those words are redefined or removed, everything built on them begins to crumble.

In this powerful and timely episode of Christian Parent/Crazy World, Catherine Segars welcomes back worldview expert Scott Allen for a riveting conversation about the biblical words that built Western civilization—and why our children’s future depends on preserving them.

We’re not just losing vocabulary in today’s culture war—we’re losing the very ideas that gave us human dignity, justice, freedom, and purpose. Concepts like truth, freedom, and even human are being reimagined in ways that disconnect us from reality and rob our kids of the meaning they were created to know.

Scott and Catherine take a deep dive into the word “human”—and what it meant when rooted in the biblical worldview. They unpack how the radical declaration in Genesis—that humans are made in the image of God—revolutionized the ancient world. In a culture where women were often viewed as property, and children or the disabled were disposable, Scripture declared that every single person has immeasurable worth.

You’ll hear:

• How the biblical idea of humanity upended Greek, Roman, and pagan views of people as tools or cosmic accidents
• The chilling story of a modern Kenyan tribe that used the same word for “woman” and “tool”
• The consequences of raising children in a world that sees them as just evolved animals—or self-defining machines

In This Episode, You'll Discover:

• How our definition of “human” shapes everything—from identity to justice to how we raise our kids
• What’s at stake when a society redefines freedom as “limitless choice” rather than living within God’s design
• How parents can reclaim and teach the biblical worldview—right in our homes, in everyday conversations
• Why our kids are in a truth crisis, and how to anchor them before the cultural current sweeps them away

Key Topics Include:

• The quiet cultural catastrophe of losing “load-bearing words”
• How radical autonomy is replacing sacred personhood
• Why the biblical concept of freedom is the only kind that truly liberates
• How to equip your kids to stand firm when truth is under siege

Guest Spotlight: Scott Allen

President of the Disciple Nations Alliance, Scott is a leading voice on biblical worldview and cultural renewal. He’s trained leaders around the globe and authored several influential books, including Why Social Justice Is Not Biblical Justice and The Kingdom Unleashed. Scott brings decades of insight into how biblical truth transforms not just lives—but entire nations.

Final Word:

If we want our children to flourish, we must fight to preserve the truth that made them free. This episode is not just a conversation—it’s a call to action. Because when we lose the words that built the West, we lose the future we hope to pass on.

Why would early Christians choose the cross as their symbol when it represented death, shame, and defeat? Dr. Neufeld explores how the cross was considered foolish and offensive in the ancient world - yet became the central message of Christianity. Using Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians, he examines why the gospel message remains scandalous today: it strips away human pride, declaring that we contribute nothing to our salvation.

The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians. Covering chapters 1-4, The Power of Christ in a Pagan World looks at the many issues that confronted the church in Corinth; Problems that seemed to find their place within the church at every turn! This series helps us unpack the different conflicts and struggles of this early church in a relevant and practical way. Even though the church in Corinth existed a long time ago, they went through trials that might sound familiar to us in the 21st Century!

Redemption E7 — When murmurs about the birth of the Messiah began spreading, 1st-century Jewish people already had very specific expectations of what his redemption would look like. He was to be a new Moses who would overthrow Rome, enabling them to live freely in the land. But even after Jesus’ resurrection, none of that had happened. So what kind of redemption did Jesus actually accomplish? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the theme of redemption in the Gospel of Luke, uncovering ways that Jesus’ mission aligned with, subverted, and transcended Israel’s expectations.

1. Setup for Redemption in Luke (00:00-5:39)

3. The Cosmic Jubilee Has Arrived (24:15-30:53)

“A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” - Proverbs 17:22

As we wrap up our series on the temperaments and how they impact our financial decisions, we’re turning the tables a bit. Today, Kathleen Edelman—who’s been our guide through this journey—is taking the host seat to interview Rob West about the Yellow temperament.

Kathleen Edelman is the author of I Said This, You Heard That: How Your Wiring Colors Your Communication. She is certified in Biblical Studies and Christian Counseling Psychology and has spent over 30 years coaching clients in the art of effective communication.

The yellow temperament, known as sanguine, is characterized by high energy, optimism, and a deep desire for connection. Yellows are extroverted and people-oriented, speaking the language of fun and relationships. They often bring joy, inspiration, and laughter into every environment they enter. However, they also face challenges, particularly in areas such as focus, follow-through, and impulse control.

Historically rooted in the work of Hippocrates, the four temperaments offer a timeless framework for understanding how people are wired to think, speak, and listen. The yellow temperament is one of four:

• Red (Choleric): Task-oriented extroverts, driven by power and control.
• Blue (Melancholic): Task-oriented introverts, focused on perfection and order.
• Green (Phlegmatic): People-oriented introverts, seeking calm and harmony.
• Yellow (Sanguine): People-oriented extroverts, motivated by fun and connection.

Yellows are often described as the life of the party—fun, inspiring, and full of energy. They thrive on being liked, included, and appreciated. They tend to wear their hearts on their sleeves and use charm, humor, and emotional connection to relate to others.

Their innate needs include:

• Approval – being accepted for who they are.
• Acceptance – feeling included and invited.
• Attention – being given full focus and eye contact.
• Affection – being acknowledged and appreciated.

When these needs are met, yellows radiate joy and creativity. But when unmet, they may seek attention in unhealthy ways or rely on charm to mask insecurity. Understanding these tendencies can help others relate to yellows with empathy and intention—and help yellows themselves pursue healthy, life-giving connections.

When it comes to money, yellows tend to view finances through the lens of spontaneity and enjoyment. They view money as a means to create experiences, give generously, and make memories with others. However, their optimism and impulsiveness can lead to overspending or a lack of strategic planning.

Some common financial tendencies of yellows include:

• Generosity is driven by emotion rather than strategy.
• Difficulty sticking to strict budgets or long-term plans.
• A tendency to avoid hard money conversations, especially if there's potential for conflict or disapproval.
• Using money to strengthen relationships and bring joy.

To thrive financially, yellows benefit from tools that provide structure without feeling restrictive, such as flexible budgeting systems, automated savings, or labeled cash envelopes tied to experiences (e.g., “Dinner with Friends”). Framing financial stewardship in terms of purpose, joy, and relational impact helps them stay engaged and motivated.

In conversations—especially around finances—yellows respond best to positive framing and shared vision. They may avoid spreads
