The Wise Idea

Episode 188 - Making Sense Of Life & Leadership with Ian Simkins

Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com

Have you ever had that social media influencer who always posted and never seemed to miss? The quality of their content and insight was next level? Well...that's the case for most of the individuals who follow and engage with Pastor Ian Simkins. And that was never his intended goal. His goal was to simply share his daily insights and musings, hoping that they would inspire and encourage others. And the result is him going viral over and over again...just from his daily brain dumps.

Pastor Ian Simkins is Lead Pastor of Teaching and Vision at a wonderful church called The Bridge just outside of Nashville, TN. A native of Detroit, he formerly served in Chicago and other ministries throughout the Midwest. You can learn more about him here: https://iansimkins.com/about

Episode 187 - Persuading Audiences & Presenting Better With Dr Charles Stone

Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com

The ability to persuade, particularly in a public setting, is the single greatest skill you can develop to accomplish your dreams. Many people, however, lack the skills, insight, and confidence as a public speaker, including trainers, teachers, and even preachers.

There are many ways to improve public speaking abilities, but in the new compelling book, If Jesus Gave A TED Talk, popular speaker Dr. Charles Stone offers a new approach—a way to move past your limitations and become a more confident speaker and stellar persuader. Stone blends the latest neuroscience research on communication and learning with how Jesus, the Master Teacher, persuaded his audiences. It’s a revolutionary new method capturing the attention of speakers who want to lift their skills to the next level.

We welcome Dr Stone back to our podcast for a rich discussion on his latest research.

Episode 183 - Spiritual Formation For The Global Church With John Frederick and Ryan Brandt

Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com

The church is called to grow in Christ. Yet too often, it ignores the practical dimensions of the faith. The church is one in Christ. Yet too often, it is divided by national, denominational, theological, and racial or ethnic boundaries. The church is a global body of believers. Yet too often, it privileges a few voices and fails to recognize its own diversity.

In response to this and this conversation our host welcomes authors John Frederick and Ryan Brandt to the podcast to discuss and dialogue about their recent book, Spiritual Formation For the Global Church: A Multi-Denominational, Multi-Ethnic Approach. This edited volume offers a multi-denominational, multi-ethnic vision in which biblical scholars, theologians, and practitioners from around the world join together to pursue a cohesive yet diverse theology and praxis of spiritual formation for the global church. This book will allow you to be fed in your faith by brothers and sisters from around the world.

Episode 182 - Forming Resilient Children With Holly Catterton Allen

Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com

Parenting and raising children can be tough work. Parenting and Raising RESILIENT children is an entirely different conversation. Yet, it's a NECESSARY conversation.

In the middle of a pandemic, with all of the challenges that we're facing as a world, we cannot forget to lean into the issues that our children are facing and navigating. Our Host, Christopher J Harris, welcomes Dr Holly Catterton Allen, author of the book Forming Resilient Children and she herself a Mother and Grandmother, for an incredibly hopeful, engaging, and inspiring discussion around raising and rearing children in a way that empowers them to thrive. More importantly, this discussion raises the conversation to deal with healthy childhood development through spiritual formation. David Csinos, founder of Faith Forward and Associate Professor at Atlantic School of Theology said, “Forming Resilient Children is a much-needed addition to the field of children’s spirituality. Especially now, as we continue to face the ongoing effects of a once-a-century pandemic, children need adults who can help them recover from trauma, process grief, and nurture hope. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, pastor, teacher, or children’s ministry volunteer, Holly Allen’s superb research will help you understand connections between spirituality and resilience. What is more, she offers strategies and resources that you can use to foster resilience among the children that God has placed in your life.”

Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com

Self-Care is all the rave in today's time. And yet, "You can have self-care without soul care...but you can't have soul care without self-care." This was a quote from Dr Peacock in today's conversation.

SOUL CARE, the practices and habits of tending to your soul and ensuring that your soul is healthy was the focus of this conversation. It was such an enriching conversation and one for all to hear.

To provide wisdom, and raise an often silent discussion, and discuss her latest book, Soul Care In The African American Practice, our host Christopher J Harris welcomed Dr Barbara L Peacock, a Professor, Conference Speaker, Podcaster, and Author, with an earned Doctorate. Her dissertation emphasis was Spiritual Direction and Soul Care. Dr Peacock lives in North Carolina with her husband and together they have an adult daughter, son-in-love, and two grandchildren.  You can listen to Part 1 of the discussion here.

Episode 179 - A Story & Recovery Of Domestic Violence, Part 2

Episode sponsored by DiverseChurchJobs.com

October was / is Domestic Violence Month. We invited Ms Dana Anthony, a survivor and victor from Domestic Violence.

According to National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (just a sample of statistics on Domestic Violence):

On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men.

1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence, intimate partner contact sexual violence, and/or intimate partner stalking with impacts such as injury, fearfulness, post-traumatic stress disorder, use of victim services, contraction of sexually transmitted diseases, etc.

1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner. This includes a range of behaviors (e.g. slapping, shoving, pushing) and in some cases might not be considered "domestic violence."

1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men have been victims of severe physical violence (e.g. beating, burning, strangling) by an intimate partner in their lifetime.

On a typical day, there are more than 20,000 phone calls placed to domestic violence hotlines nationwide.

Only 34% of people who are injured by intimate partners receive medical care for their injuries.

Source (and MORE statistics)

Beyond these statistics, Dana shares her personal story. In Part 1 of this story, she sits down with our host, Christopher J Harris and shares honestly and transparently about being married to her abuser and how she navigated getting free and back on her feet.

If you are in immediate danger, call 9-1-1.

You can contact the Domestic Violence Hotline -
