Holidays are supposed to be a time for reconnecting and celebrating, but for many families, they also stir up unnecessary stress and strife. Family gatherings can draw immature or unresolved relational dynamics to the surface, highlighting pressures and intensifying grief and loneliness following loss. Join Dr. Lisa Dunne as she interviews CVCU Psychology Professor Lindsey Rauch to discover biblically-grounded practices and evidence-based psychological tools that will help you set realistic expectations and approach relational dynamics with greater clarity, compassion, and spiritual intentionality. Professor Rauch is a mental heath and wellness professional with a Master of Science in Mental Health and Wellness. She is currently completing her Ph.D. in Psychology at Liberty University. In addition to her work at CVCU, she is a proud military spouse and the mother of two adventurous boys.

The tragic martyrdom of Charlie Kirk is yet another example of the horrific fallout of institutions that have falsely claimed to be ramparts of critical thinking and free speech. Instead, the sociocultural conditioning of soul-less, values-free, truth-deficit education has spawned a generation of hedonism and lawlessness. Join Dr. Lisa Dunne on this week's episode as she shares her experience as a speaker at Turning Point and as a college professor for 25 years. If we want a better America, we must start by facing the brokenness of this one. Universities must recognize and repent for the role they've played in silencing free speech, in undermining critical thought, and in severing parental support in the scholastic process. Education is broken. We can fix it. May we continue to carry on the Charlie's courageous legacy of confronting and exposing the darkness in high places in public university campuses--of defeating the darkness with dialogue. Charlie's mission existed because a generation before him allowed the Great Commission to be outlawed on our watch. It's time to take it back.

Join me on this week's show for an interview with Pastor Josiah Elias, the lead pastor of Faith Chapel in Spring Valley, California. Pastor Josiah and his wife Ashley are devoted to discipleship. They want to see believers develop into wholehearted followers of Jesus, and they understand that discipleship begins in the home, in the early years of our children's walk with the Lord. They recognize the weighty mandate that the local church carries to equip and encourage parents in discipling their kids, and that as believers, we can't just look the other way when an entire generation is steeped in anxiety, depression, and atheism. That's why Faith Chapel is going all in on education. Learn more about the mission and the inspiration on today's show.
