In this episode, Amy W Daughters shares with Dr. Meeker about doing something unexpected and outrageous.  She shares the process of how her book, Dear Dana - That Time I Went Crazy and Wrote All 580 of My Facebook Friends a Handwritten Letter, came about. Sometimes stepping out and doing things that God calls us to do isn’t glamorous, sometimes its when we least expect it while sitting in yoga pants and eating ramen noodles.

In this episode, Dr. Meeker and Emma Benoit discuss the hard topic of suicide in teens and what every parent

should know. At the age of 16, Emma attempted suicide. Paralyzed, but propelled her on a mission to use her

painful experience to help others find hope, and shine more light on the fact that 20 young people die every day by

suicide in the United States. My Ascension is a feature length documentary that chronicles Emma's inspiring journey

and quest to walk again, as she works to bring Hope Squad, a school-based suicide prevention program, to

Louisiana. The film also highlights the stories of two remarkable young people who tragically did not survive their

attempts, and we learn first-hand from their families, friends, school officials and suicide prevention experts about

the devastating effects of suicide and what can be done to prevent it.

It’s not a comfortable thing to feel out of control but we all will feel it at one point or another.  In this episode, Dr. Meeker shares from her heart about how Mary must have felt being the mother of Jesus, the Savior of the World, the one who gave His life on the cross for our sins.  Mary must have felt like it all was out of her control but she trusted God through it.
