Noises From The Attic

A confession and a diagnosis and a challenge all in one. If you want to become more compassionate, and help others wake up to more compassion themselves as you go, this might help.

My favorite episode yet— I MEAN IT! Kristi and Answer listener questions about navigating our surprise conversion to christianity and ensuing faith challenges, how we’ve learned to communicate, managing our feelings and our logic, how we’d survive being stranded on an island and more.

A less than exhaustive but fully necessary deconstruction of a word and its powerful narrowness. (And some encouragement for those who've been elbowed out by it!)

It's hard to be wonderful toward other people when it feels like doing so takes something from you. Good news: life isn't cake.

I sit down (virtually) with Pastor and Author Melissa Florer-Bixler to chat about her new book about the Old Testament, Fire By Night, as well as her work with prisons, justice and more.

World Class illusionist and storyteller, Harris III, talks Magic, Margin & his new Movie, Counterfeit!

A chat with Zach Hunt about his forthcoming book Unraptured, and the anxiety-laced religion of trying to get God to beam a few of us up before God gets really awful toward everyone else. Good stuff here, much more in his book!

Very early on we begin developing a strategy for dealing with others, and with all the hits we take along the way. Aundi is a trauma-informed therapist who helps folks learn how to be mindful of their style of relating, how to set good boundaries, & how to live from healing vs from a wound. Really great stuff—enjoy! #trysofter

“We don’t have to have all experiences just for them to be valid. It’s important for us to keep in mind that people experience the world differently…that doesn’t mean any of that is less valid.”

Join host Steve Daugherty and guest Dr. Krista Nabar in a talk about our transgender neighbors, and how choosing to have a better understanding of the facts can and will lead to a better experience for all of us.
