  • Toward a Regressive Society: Ruptures and Scapegoating
    Nov 10 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    In today’s episode, Dr. Mo further discusses societal emotional process and the regression that is found in today’s society. This episode discusses the last two consequences, rupturing relationships and scapegoating, of breaching the limitations God gives us. We focus on what’s happening in society in Genesis 3:7-13.

    Tune into this episode as we discuss how rupturing and blaming contribute to regression in societal emotional processes. Instead of trusting in the grace of God, we find ourselves blaming others as a way to avoid personal responsibility when we have been found guilty of rupturing relationships. How might we deny ourselves and practice the discipline of self-denial as a way of healing society of its regressive condition?

  • Hiding and Grace
    Nov 2 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    In today’s episode, Dr. Mo further discusses societal emotional process and the regression that is found in today’s society. This episode discusses hiding and what could be happening in Genesis 3:7-10 between Adam and Eve. And also, between God and them.

    We still hold in our minds Leviticus 23:26-29 concerning the Day of Atonement, how it is to be observed, and how it includes self-denial. We consider how self indulging versus self-denial contributes to the regressive state of society.

    Tune into this episode as we discuss how hiding contribute to regression in societal emotional processes. We fear condemnation due to our differences and poor decision making instead of being met with grace. Maybe if we can practice self-denial and choose grace toward ourselves and others when we recognize our differences and realize we have done things we knew we were not supposed to do, perhaps we can push back on some of the regression in society.

  • Fear and Hiding: Contributors to A Regressive Society
    Oct 26 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    In today’s episode, Dr. Mo further discusses societal emotional process and the regression that is found in today’s society. This episode investigates how fear and hiding are consequences to breaching the limitations God put into place.

    We still hold in our minds Leviticus 23:26-29 concerning the Day of Atonement, how it is to be observed, and how it includes self-denial. We consider how self indulging versus self-denial contributes to the regressive state of society.

    Tune into this episode as we also look at Genesis 3:7-10 to focus on and to understand how fear and hiding contribute to regression in societal emotional processes. We contemplate on how fear causes us to see others and how we might hide from that perceived or actual threat of others.

  • Societal Emotional Process: Consequences When Limitations are Breached
    Oct 19 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    In today’s episode, Dr. Mo further discusses societal emotional process and the regression that is found in today’s society, especially as it relates to the consequences of violating limitations.

    We still hold in our minds Leviticus 23:26-29 concerning the Day of Atonement, how it is to be observed, and how it includes self-denial. We consider how self indulging versus self-denial contributes to the regressive state of society.

    Tune into this episode as we also look at Genesis 3:1-10 to understand what happened in society when the limitations God established were violated. We specially identify four consequences: fear, hiding, rupture, and blaming/scapegoating.

  • Considering Limitations Toward Healing Societal Regression
    Oct 12 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    In today’s episode, Dr. Mo further discusses societal emotional process and the regression that is found in today’s society.

    We delve further into Leviticus 23:26-29 about the Day of Atonement, how it is to be observed, and how it includes self-denial. We define key terms and concepts to understand what is to happen during the Day of Atonement from the original language.

    Tune into this episode as we also look at Genesis 2:15-17 to understand what happened when society was first established by God Himself. We see that while God gave Adam free access, He also established limitations.

    Do we identify limitations? Do we acknowledge limitations? How might God be inviting us to heal the society in regression by recognizing limitations and exercising them?

  • A Regressive Society
    Oct 5 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    We are back after a break from recording. In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses new revelations and insights from the Holy Spirit during this brief hiatus. She shares reflections during the observance of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

    Some of these reflections include thinking more about how psychology and theology intersect especially toward the healing of our society. Also, Dr. Mo introduces the concept of societal emotional process and how we understand that our society is in a regressive state. She helps us to identify some of the characteristics of a regressive society.

    Tune in to this episode as Dr. Mo reads from Leviticus 23:26-29 about the Day of Atonement, how it is to be observed, and how it includes self-denial. We will start thinking about our individual and collective responsibility to rebuilding our society and healing the land.

  • Rebroadcast: College Ministry Edition - Adjusting in College
    Aug 24 2025

    Happy Sunday!

    We are rebroadcasting an episode focusing on our college ministry series. This episode was broadcast in August 2024 as we were and are in the middle of the college school year starting again.

    In this episode, Dr. Mo discusses the psychology of adjustment and how we can equip college students to most optimally cope with and manage the demands and challenges of this new life.

    Introspection is needed for all of us to assess the types of behaviors we need to adjust in life, and to determine if these behaviors are helpful or not. And especially for our college students as they are adjusting to this new chapter in their lives.

    Tune in to this episode featuring our ministry to college students as we seek to assist them with adjusting in ways that are beneficial and healthy.

  • Rebroadcast: College Ministry Edition - New Things, New Freedoms
    Aug 10 2025

    Happy Summer!

    We are back with a rebroadcast as our college ministry series will kick off again!

    This is an episode that first aired last year as we are in the middle of college students leaving for college either for the first time or as returning students. God is doing a new thing in your lives. College is a time where students are exposed to many newfound freedoms.

    Our hope and prayer is that students will pause and consider that these freedoms might be permissible yet, not necessarily beneficial.

    Tune in to hear this episode featuring our ministry to college students!
