Ep. 761 - Safe and Nurturing Home Promotes Confidence and Healthy Masculinity in Boys - Jeff Schadt

February 10, 2025 • Tina Griffin

Why are boys in modern culture struggling to live confident and meaningful lives? It might have something to do with the avalanche of negative messages society is bombarding them with. Jeff Schadt, the president and CEO of Revive Family, frequently gives seminars addressing the most prominent issues facing today’s youth. One of the worst problems is culture’s attack on healthy masculinity. “All these messages [are] telling us that we’re the problem,” he says. Boys lose their confidence, and they become men who are afraid to embrace their God-given, healthy masculinity. How can we address this issue? As parents, we can start by tackling this issue head-on in the home and providing a safe and nurturing environment for our sons. “We can punish them right into the world or we can love them right into our influence,” exclaims Jeff.

TAKEAWAYS

Love your kids unconditionally, and they will be far more likely to come to you first when they’re having a problem

Sometimes kids will continue to misbehave because they believe they’ll never live up to their parents’ expectations

Give your child a safe space to discuss their feelings and disappointments

Remember, the Bible says nobody is perfect, so let’s not expect perfection from our children

Ep. 780 - Facing Fear Head-On with Truth and Transparency in Daily Dialogue with God - Nicole Salmon

March 13, 2025 • Tina Griffin

Overcoming your deepest fears and achieving your goals doesn’t have to be scary. With God’s help, you can embrace the truth about yourself and take your challenges to Him! This is the wisdom Nicole Salmon brings to the topic of courage. As an author, speaker, and purpose alignment coach, she has journeyed from the struggles of single motherhood and faced her fears head-on with God’s help. Fear is slick, and it dresses itself up in many ways, she says. Sometimes, fear can even dress itself up to look like wisdom. Don’t be deceived. Fear is not from God! She advises Christians to be truthful with themselves and to take those concerns to the Lord. No matter what you face, there is a response you can offer to turn your fear into a win. TAKEAWAYS Create a Bible-anchored response to the fear narrative that replays in your head Have honest conversations with God and stop lying to yourself about what’s going on and embrace truth Take small, actionable steps toward your goals More time procrastinating doesn’t alleviate fear; it feeds it 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Fear video: https://bit.ly/4hlmh1c Covenant Eyes (get 30 days free with code TINA): https://bit.ly/3p60omj Courage and Confidence book: https://amzn.to/4ixeyxx 🔗 CONNECT WITH NICOLE SALMON Website: https://www.nicoleosalmon.com/http://www.nicoleosalmon.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nicoleosalmonhttp://www.facebook.com/nicoleosalmon Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicoleosalmonhttp://www.instagram.com/nicoleosalmon YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nicoleosalmonhttp://www.youtube.com/@nicoleosalmon App: https://bit.ly/4hlvtft 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY My Father’s World: http://mfwbooks.com/4tina Pure Bella Vita (get $5 off with code TINA): https://bit.ly/pbvaccm Restore Patch: https://bit.ly/ccmpatch Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner

Ep. 779 - Rebuilding Your Relationship with God After Almost Losing Everything - Dawn Mann Sanders

March 12, 2025 • Tina Griffin

The place between two stops on a journey is not limbo; it’s rest, says Dawn Mann Sanders, an author and the associate minister at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden. Dawn wrote When Your World Ends: God’s Creative Process For Rebuilding a Life. The book was inspired by the difficult challenges she has faced in life, from divorce to remarriage, miscarriages, and the sudden death of her beloved second husband. When life knocks you down, how will you respond? Anger, she explains, does not mean that you do not believe in God or that you don’t trust Him. It’s a natural emotion that comes in the wake of deep and tragic loss. After grappling with anger and feelings of betrayal, Dawn had to learn to forgive herself for holding a grudge against God, but she also had to learn how to move forward. TAKEAWAYS How do you start over from nothing? By rebuilding your relationship with God God will meet us wherever we are, even in the darkness God is hovering over us and will never abandon us, even if our emotions betray us Wait until God moves, then follow as closely as you can as you move forward 🛠 TOOLS AND RESOURCES FROM EPISODE Pop Culture Purge Tour: text TOUR to 55444 When Your World Ends book: https://amzn.to/43w20he 🔗 CONNECT WITH DAWN MANN SANDERS Website: https://dawnmannsanders.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dawnmannsandershttp://www.facebook.com/dawnmannsanders Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dawnmannsanders/http://www.instagram.com/dawnmannsanders LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dawnmannsanders/http://www.linkedin.com/in/dawnmannsanders X: https://x.com/dawnmannsanders 📢 THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY Capstone Legacy Foundation: https://capstonelegacy.org/ Gabb: http://gabb.com/tina Medi-Share: https://www.medishare.com/tina-griffinhttp://www.medishare.com/tina-griffin ARTZA (get 20% off with code TINA): https://www.artzabox.com/#rfsn=tinahttp://www.artzabox.com/#rfsn=tina 🔗 CONNECT WITH COUNTER CULTURE MOM https://linktr.ee/counterculturemom 📺 WATCH OUR PREVIOUS SHOWS https://bit.ly/fpmccmshow 📲 GET OUR APP & FREE PARENT MEDIA GUIDE http://bit.ly/landingpageccm 💵 SUPPORT THE MISSION 2023 Recap & 2024 Goals: https://bit.ly/ccm23impactreport Make a Tax-Deductible Donation: https://counterculturemom.com/partner/

March 11, 2025 • Tina Griffin

Being brave isn’t just about not quitting - it’s also about springing back up after you’ve fallen! These words of wisdom from Dawn Scott Damon - an author, speaker, and CEO of BraveHearted Woman - were hard-won. After facing a massive, real-life crisis that threatened to drown her in sorrow, Dawn chose to seize courage and rebuild her life despite massive disappointments and obstacles. Dawn discusses the importance of staying committed to living our best lives even when we don’t feel like it - especially when the midlife crisis hits hard. She also talks about five key “fortitudes” she encourages others to embrace, including vision, identity, and virtue. “It takes courage to stay the leading lady of your life,” she says. But we need to be brave, and a little courage goes a long way. TAKEAWAYS Resilience is choosing NOT to quit on yourself, your dreams, or your God-given purpose Bravery is choosing to rise from mediocrity and harness a courageous spirit even when you feel afraid Vision, courage, and dreams are possible at any stage of life Rejection and pain can hurt - but what are you going to do with that pain?
