Spiritual Autophagy | Friday, Nov. 21, 5pm PT | 8pm ET
with Risë Rafferty MS, RDN

“Spiritual Autophagy” explores how the First Angel’s Message calls us to let go of self-exaltation and allow God to renew His image within us. Just as the body clears damaged cells to make room for healing, God invites us to lay the glory of man in the dust so His character can shine through. In this message, Risë unpacks the deeply practical experience of fearing God and giving Him glory. Discover what spiritual cleansing looks like in daily life and how to cooperate with the Holy Spirit’s restoring work.

Risë is a registered dietitian nutritionist with a Masters in Functional Medicine. She provides medical nutrition therapy to individuals and groups through telehealth. She works for Lifestyle Medicine Group, 3ABN and lives in California with her husband where they enjoy the mountains, lakes, and growing food.

Lessons from the Cell: How Spiritual Growth Mirrors the Way God Designed Our Bodies to Thrive

This week, we’re exploring a gently powerful truth: spiritual growth happens the same way healthy cells grow - through steady nourishment, surrender, and alignment with the design God built into us. In tonight’s session, you’ll learn how daily spiritual “nutrition” fuels real transformation, and why surrendering to the Holy Spirit isn’t a loss of control, but the very place where life begins to flourish.

Krystina Holliday, RN, BSN, has over 12 years of experience in adult and pediatric cardiology and now works in lifestyle medicine through Nedley Health’s Depression and Anxiety Recovery Program and the Nedley Clinic. Her passion comes from the healing she has experienced through Scripture, and she now uses medical themes like cell growth and cancer development as object lessons that illustrate how spiritual life rises or falls based on what we take in. Her work is rooted in medical mission service and a commitment to helping people experience the life and peace found in Christ.

By the end, you’ll walk away encouraged to seek Jesus more intentionally, trust Him more deeply, and experience the quiet miracle of His life working in you.

The word narcissist gets thrown around a lot these days. But what does it really mean? And how can we recognize and respond to it with wisdom, both in others and in ourselves?

Join Dr. Jen for her upcoming webinar, “Narcissistic Personality Disorder: Let’s Get It Right.” She’ll unpack the truth behind one of today’s most misused labels and explore what Scripture and psychology together can teach us about it.

You’ll discover:

Why narcissism exists on a spectrum
Why few people meet the full diagnosis
How to interact wisely with those who do
How to guard your own heart from the subtle forms of narcissism that can take root in any of us.

This session will offer clarity, compassion, and a biblically grounded perspective that brings truth and balance to a complex topic.

Reserve your spot today and learn how to protect yourself from the narcissism of others, and, just as importantly, from your own.

He tunes out. She over-explains.
And neither of you understands why.

Did you know that overall women have better factual memory and men have better concept memory?

But I ask men for directions because the woman will tell me every detail: “You go down the road and then you curve around to the right and there’s this beautiful house on the left. I think it was built in 1969, but they refurbished it recently…

It's charming. Until it's exhausting.

Here's what happens in relationships: He feels overwhelmed by too much information. She feels dismissed when he "doesn't care about the details."

Both feel unheard. Neither understands why.

These small communication differences? They compound. Day after day.

Until what was quirky becomes a wedge.
Until you're not just frustrated, you're lonely in your own marriage.

But here's the truth: Understanding how you each process and communicate differently isn't just interesting, it's healing. It's the difference between resenting each other and truly seeing each other.

It Gets Better.
There is hope.
There is help.
There is healing.

Walking Therapy: Optimize Brain Function & Mental Health

You know walking, I hope to do a whole experimental research study on the power of walking therapeutically because I have experienced it, and I've seen it in other people, and I think there's just a whole untapped field there of how walking - it can optimize brain function in my view because of the right-left stimulation, alternate stimulation, and there's a whole bunch of research to the effect that that bilateralizes the brain.

It makes it more capable of handling difficult information and material, coordinating the emotional and the cerebral parts of the brain and all this stuff, and I really want to do experimental research on the power of walking therapeutically.

Michael’s journey has been one of remarkable transformation - from a competitive fantasy card player to a devoted Seventh-day Adventist Missionary Colporteur and YouTuber. Along the way, he has faced seasons of deep struggle, navigating diagnoses of clinical depression, seasonal affective disorder, and bipolar disorder.

Yet, through prayer, perseverance, and the guidance of godly counselors, he discovered hope in the midst of hardship. Today, Michael stands as a living testimony that no darkness is too deep for God’s light to reach.

His mission is simple but powerful: to publish his pilgrimage so that others may find courage, healing, and faith to continue their own journey.
