Love / Hopelessness

<p>In the Season 2 finale of the Faith in Action: Faith over Fear series of Faith in the Wild Podcast, hosts Nicole and Angelica discuss “Love over Hopelessness,” grounding the conversation in 1 Corinthians 13:13 and the idea of love as an enduring anchor rooted in God. They explore definitions of love beyond feelings or cultural messages, referencing research that frames love as the consistent desire to be with and contribute to the good of one another, persisting through difficulty. They contrast love with hopelessness, naming experiences like loneliness, comparison, and feeling unseen, and describe staying anchored through daily practice, surrender, solitude with God, and community. They discuss self-love, forgiveness, restorative love amid harm, and love as light that never fully goes out, concluding with practical calls to action: write love-filled words for yourself and reflect daily on how you showed love to yourself and others.</p><p><br></p><p>01:22 Love Over Hopelessness Intro</p><p>02:29 Faith Hope Love Anchor</p><p>03:39 Defining Love In God</p><p>04:52 Science Of Love Research</p><p>10:19 Why Love Feels Lacking</p><p>11:31 Hopelessness And Culture Traps</p><p>15:51 Self Love And Grace</p><p>19:47 Staying Anchored Daily Practice</p><p>22:50 Light In The Darkness</p><p>27:32 Restoration And Solitude</p><p>29:47 Solitude Over Snooze</p><p>32:15 Restoration Through Community</p><p>34:32 Restorative Love And Justice</p><p>38:39 Anchored Systems For The Week</p><p>42:48 Hope Beyond Control</p><p>46:18 Faith Practices With Kids</p><p>52:25 Faith In Action Wrap Up</p><p>55:41 Final Reflections And Farewell</p><p><br></p><p>|| JOIN THE COMMUNITY ||</p><p>&gt; Subscribe and Listen on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/faith-in-the-wild-podcast/id1834722275"><u>Apple Podcasts</u></a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/78qEeobs71IeoRB3MsgpzX?si=w7eb5_1nTsG-s35CgOI0XA&nd=1&dlsi=89065da2eece4b95"><u>Spotify</u></a>, <a href="https://iheart.com/podcast/290323215/"><u>iHeartRadio</u></a>, and <a href="https://youtube.com/@faithinthewildpodcast?si=f4LvZJiKQYi5WpsK"><u>YouTube</u></a></p><p>&gt; Purchase our “Faith Over Fear 11-week Devotional &amp; Reflection Guide” on <a href="https://a.co/d/0ioa9Tk7"><u>Amazon</u></a></p><p>&gt; Follow our journey on Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/faithinthewildpodcast/"> <u>⁠@FaithInTheWildPodcast⁠</u></a></p><p>&gt; Visit our website:<a href="https://www.faithinthewildpodcast.com"> <u>⁠</u></a><a href="http://faithinthewildpodcast.com"><u>FaithInTheWildPodcast.com</u></a><a href="https://www.faithinthewildpodcast.com"><u>⁠</u></a> </p><p><br></p><p>|| ABOUT FAITH IN THE WILD PODCAST ||</p><p>&gt; Hosted by:<a href="https://www.livewithpurposeconsulting.com"> <u>⁠Nicole Moran⁠</u></a> and<a href="https://www.angelicamccarthy.com"> <u>⁠Angelica McCarthy⁠</u></a></p><p>&gt; Music: “<a href="https://joemccarthymusic.com/release/revelation/"><u>⁠Dialed In” by Afro Bop Alliance Big Band⁠</u></a> (comp.<a href="https://www.instagram.com/cubantenorist/"> <u>⁠</u>Luis Hernandez<u>⁠</u></a>, arr.

Gratitude / Selfishness

<p>In this episode, hosts Nicole and her co-host reflect on favorite holiday foods and use the season as a launch point for their series theme, Faith in Action: Faith over Fear, focusing on “Gratitude over Selfishness.” They define gratitude as outward and others-focused, rooted in an open heart that receives and gives, while selfishness is inward, ego-driven, and tied to lack and control. They discuss daily practices like prayer, praise, pausing to observe reactions, reading scripture, and surrendering burdens to God, especially in seasons of grief, pain, and loneliness, emphasizing that gratitude can coexist with hardship and bring peace and a rewired perspective. They reference “give thanks in all circumstances” (1 Thessalonians) and end with a challenge to write down three things you’re grateful for each day and save the note as a reminder. </p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Warm Welcome</p><p>01:10 Thanksgiving Favorites</p><p>03:01 Holiday Traditions</p><p>04:15 Gratitude Over Selfishness</p><p>06:40 Defining Gratitude</p><p>11:10 Faith Through Hardships</p><p>14:12 Family Gratitude Practice</p><p>17:04 Leaning In During Heavy Times</p><p>17:56 Grief and Isolation</p><p>18:52 Surrender and Peace</p><p>20:43 Three Thanks Practice</p><p>21:54 Speak Gratitude Aloud</p><p>23:17 Thanks in All Seasons</p><p>26:03 Observer Mindset Shift</p><p>32:03 Gratitude as Discipline</p><p>33:51 Write It Down Challenge</p><p>35:05 Week of Thanks Wrap</p><p><br></p><p>|| JOIN THE COMMUNITY ||</p><p>&gt; Subscribe and Listen on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/faith-in-the-wild-podcast/id1834722275"><u>Apple Podcasts</u></a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/78qEeobs71IeoRB3MsgpzX?si=w7eb5_1nTsG-s35CgOI0XA&nd=1&dlsi=89065da2eece4b95"><u>Spotify</u></a>, <a href="https://iheart.com/podcast/290323215/"><u>iHeartRadio</u></a>, and <a href="https://youtube.com/@faithinthewildpodcast?si=f4LvZJiKQYi5WpsK"><u>YouTube</u></a></p><p>&gt; Purchase our “Faith Over Fear 11-week Devotional &amp; Reflection Guide” on <a href="https://a.co/d/0ioa9Tk7"><u>Amazon</u></a></p><p>&gt; Follow our journey on Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/faithinthewildpodcast/"> <u>⁠@FaithInTheWildPodcast⁠</u></a></p><p>&gt; Visit our website:<a href="https://www.faithinthewildpodcast.com"> <u>⁠</u></a><a href="http://faithinthewildpodcast.com"><u>FaithInTheWildPodcast.com</u></a><a href="https://www.faithinthewildpodcast.com"><u>⁠</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>|| ABOUT FAITH IN THE WILD PODCAST ||</p><p>&gt; Hosted by:<a href="https://www.livewithpurposeconsulting.com"> <u>⁠Nicole Moran⁠</u></a> and<a href="https://www.angelicamccarthy.com"> <u>⁠Angelica McCarthy⁠</u></a></p><p>&gt; Music: “<a href="https://joemccarthymusic.com/release/revelation/"><u>⁠Dialed In” by Afro Bop Alliance Big Band⁠</u></a> (comp.<a href="https://www.instagram.com/cubantenorist/"> <u>⁠</u>Luis Hernandez<u>⁠</u></a>, arr.

Community / Isolation

<p>In this episode, hosts Angelica and Nicole continue their Faith Over Fear series by discussing “Community over Isolation,” defining community as quality relationships rather than size and emphasizing shared purpose as God’s one body. They distinguish solitude—being alone to draw closer to God—from isolation and loneliness, which involve building walls and feeling disconnected even when surrounded by people. They reflect on how vulnerability, self-awareness, and a deeper relationship with God help prevent loneliness, note research (including the U.S. Surgeon General) linking lack of social connection to serious health risks, and share personal experiences of moving through isolating moments with prayer, reflection, and support from trusted friends. They offer practical steps: pray and seek God, pursue community, practice reflection and solitude, and serve others in small, everyday ways, reminding viewers they are not alone.</p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Morning Chatter</p><p>01:13 Hug in a Cup</p><p>02:02 Faith Over Fear Focus</p><p>03:52 Defining Community</p><p>05:26 Quality and Purpose</p><p>07:48 Friends Shape Your Future</p><p>10:55 Vulnerability Builds Depth</p><p>12:47 Solitude vs Isolation</p><p>19:37 Loneliness Research and Risks</p><p>21:27 Angelica on Solitude</p><p>23:43 Walls and loneliness</p><p>25:27 Awareness and discernment</p><p>26:33 Leading in Vulnerability</p><p>27:55 Practicing Honesty</p><p>32:36 Moving through Together</p><p>34:32 Choosing Abundance</p><p>35:54 How to Start Healing</p><p>40:58 Four Practical Steps</p><p>45:27 You are Not Alone</p><p>45:49 Snooze Button Grace</p><p><br></p><p>|| JOIN THE COMMUNITY ||</p><p>&gt; Subscribe and Listen on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/faith-in-the-wild-podcast/id1834722275"><u>Apple Podcasts</u></a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/78qEeobs71IeoRB3MsgpzX?si=w7eb5_1nTsG-s35CgOI0XA&nd=1&dlsi=89065da2eece4b95"><u>Spotify</u></a>, <a href="https://iheart.com/podcast/290323215/"><u>iHeartRadio</u></a>, and <a href="https://youtube.com/@faithinthewildpodcast?si=f4LvZJiKQYi5WpsK"><u>YouTube</u></a></p><p>&gt; Purchase our “Faith Over Fear 11-week Devotional &amp; Reflection Guide” on <a href="https://a.co/d/0ioa9Tk7"><u>Amazon</u></a></p><p>&gt; Follow our journey on Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/faithinthewildpodcast/"> <u>⁠@FaithInTheWildPodcast⁠</u></a></p><p>&gt; Visit our website:<a href="https://www.faithinthewildpodcast.com"> <u>⁠</u></a><a href="http://faithinthewildpodcast.com"><u>FaithInTheWildPodcast.com</u></a><a href="https://www.faithinthewildpodcast.com"><u>⁠</u></a></p><p><br></p><p>|| ABOUT FAITH IN THE WILD PODCAST ||</p><p>&gt; Hosted by:<a href="https://www.livewithpurposeconsulting.com"> <u>⁠Nicole Moran⁠</u></a> and<a href="https://www.angelicamccarthy.com"> <u>⁠Angelica McCarthy⁠</u></a></p><p>&gt; Music: “<a href="https://joemccarthymusic.com/release/revelation/"><u>⁠Dialed In” by Afro Bop Alliance Big Band⁠</u></a> (comp.<a href="https://www.instagram.com/cubantenorist/"> <u>⁠</u>Luis Hernandez<u>⁠</u></a>, arr.
