A Called & Curious conversation where faith, story, and brain science intertwine to help you live from the overflow.
This episode was hard to make.
In a season meant for hope, joy, and peace, the world feels heavier than ever—marked by division, violence, judgment, and overwhelming expectations. This is a raw, unscripted reflection on grief, faith, and the courage it takes to keep choosing love when darkness feels loud.
Drawing from real stories—both recent and historical—this episode explores how people have carried light in the darkest moments, from Holocaust-era Hanukkah celebrations to the quiet, faithful acts of hope we’re still called to today.
There is no debate here.
No performance.
No pressure.
Just an invitation to pause, reflect, and remember what this season was always meant to be about: connection over condemnation, love over fear, and the courage to keep lighting the candle.
Listener discretion advised: This episode references real-world violence and loss. Please take care of your heart as you listen.
One-Sentence Takeaway:
True hope isn’t found in how perfectly we celebrate, but in our courage to choose love, tell the hard stories, and keep lighting the candle anyway.
