In this Halloween special of The Non Sermon Sermon Podcast, join me, Todd—your ordained minister and guidance coach—as we venture into the shadows of fear, perspective, and personal growth. In “Trick or Treat Yourself,” we’ll explore life’s unexpected tricks and well-earned treats, diving into stories inspired by classic horror films like Scream, Scary Movie, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Through each tale, we uncover reflections on compassion, humor, alternate perspectives, and the power to outgrow fears from our past.

Our Mindful Moment offers a space to pause and honor the balance of life’s light and dark—embracing both the challenges and the wisdom they leave behind. So, take a deep breath, lean in, and let’s find a path less preached this Halloween. Tune in to embrace the journey from trick to treat, fear to insight, and shadow to light.
