When there has been hurt and pain in a mixed faith marriage there needs to be both apologies and trust building. But PLEASE note they are not the same thing!

When big things happen like a faith transition or a mixed faith marriage it's not uncommon to find ourselves or our spouses on a pendulum. The pendulum swing is often what is needed in order to find center and homeostasis. In this podcast I talk about one type of pendulum swing I see in a LDS mixed faith marriage - where we become too demanding on one side and then too permissive on the other. ...

Here I talk about the intersection between emotions and communication. Many people ask me how they can communicate with less emotions and with a better tone. This is not a bad question but I want to go further and explore why are we not allowed to modulate our voice and use different tones in our communication? Why is that? Why do emotions have such a bad reputation when it comes to communicati...

    I find those who focus on their own hurts are generally oblivious to how they hurt others.

    As an active member, I long thought Church culture is too restrictive of Sunday activities. I see no problem, for example, with the kids going to the playground on Sunday.

    I know from first-hand experience that when a mother leaves the Church, the odds of the children taking drugs and alcohol, getting tattoos, going through prolonged depression, and having gender dysphoria skyrockets.

    I agree children make their own decisions. But parent's decisions and teachings have a massive impact in shaping those decisions that often last a life time.

  • @jaredvaughan1665
    @jaredvaughan1665 4 місяці тому

    I read a study that shows mothers have 3 times more influence than the father in shaping a child's religious faith. And I've seen this play out in the Church as well. I met several missionaries that had a less active father growing up. But I never met a missionary that had a less active mother growing up.

    Emotions are problems to be solved if the reasons for those negative emotions stem from a lack of productive actions and irrational and illogical thinking. Also, solving problems in one's life will reduce negative emotions. I'm not saying we should focus on solving emotional reactions. I'm saying we should focus on solving problems (like personal laziness and flawed thinking) that leads to those negative emotions in the first place. And at times put aside negative emotions when they interfere with reason and productive actions.

    Being a marginalized community is not necessarily a virtue. Both the Right and Left have marginalized communities. But we need not agree with their view points to love them. The KKK is a marginalized community.

    I think it needs to require the consent of both parents with any major changes regarding the kids. So if a nonmember couple joins the church and one parent then joins the church and the other does not, it should require the consent of both parents to bring the kids to church until they are of age. Vice versa if both parents were in the church and one stops attending. It should require the consent of both parents for the children to stop attending until they are of age. Otherwise, the status quo or original agreement needs to be respected. And this applies to most major personal changes that could affect the children. For example, you need to have the consent of both couples when moving to a new location. So if one parent wakes up and says they want to move to a different country it does not mean they can take the kids with them if the other parent does not want to move. The status quo needs respected with all major decisions unless both parents agree to change it. And the other parent needs to be respectful of this and not create hidden obstacles that were not there before. Like encouraging the kids to stay overnight at their friends Saturday night so getting ready for church is harder. Or refusing to make them breakfast on Sunday to ease getting ready for church if that was the norm.

    Hi I am Mahedi and I have been working as a Digital Marketer and UA-cam growth specialist for the last three years. I was analyzing your UA-cam channel and I feel maybe you are quite worried about the growth of your UA-cam channel. Because the quality of your content is so good but your channel views and subscribers are not increasing accordingly. I found some of your channel issues. Your channel's videos are not SEO optimized. The keyword section of your videos is not properly customized. Video related keywords are not used in your description box. No link building has been done behind your video. Your video has not been promoted on any social media for organic growth. The most important thing is that your channel is not monetized. If you want I will help you to solve those problems in your channel and also help you to get your potential subscribers and views from your targeted location.

  • @Seodejohn
    @Seodejohn 7 місяців тому

    Hey Brooke, I saw the videos on your channel. Your video content is excellent. To grow & increase the view of your channel you need to optimize your videos. SEO Score is very low. The title, Description, and Tags are not SEO-friendly. Videos are not shared on Social Media platforms and many other problems are found on your UA-cam Channel. If your channel is optimized a little and if the videos are SEO friendly then your channel will rank very fast and your channel will grow. So immediately need SEO for your Videos & UA-cam channel. Do you want to improve those problems and grow your UA-cam Channel?

    It’s interesting, how some advice is repeated so often in our culture. I have heard “happy wife, happy life” and even repeated it myself ad nauseam! I wonder if there’s any correlation with the inherent absurdity of the statement and how often it is to be repeated in order for us to believe it? I think this may be referred to as the illusory truth effect. What would be a catchy repetitive phrase or mantra that you would prefer to hear partners say instead?

    • @brookeboothcoaching

    It doesn’t work to have mixed faiths in a marriage, and you believe it’s working for you… it’s not. And somebody will always be unhappy in the marriage. Marriage is under God and if both partners accept Jesus as their lord and savior, then the marriage will work but if god and Jesus are not the center for both people , it will never work. I think you know that…

    Great interview. Melisa and I have been friends for only a few years, but she is explaining so well, how the church(es) are harming the LGBTQIA community, by trying to get them to deny what they truly are. We must learn to love them, and let them have the same rights and life choices as the heterosexual community. Thank you both for this.

    I can't imagine the difficulty in being in a mixed faith marriage when one is a Mormon. Mormonism is really not even compatible with that concept. Lucky my wife and I are in the same path however I am more heretical than she is.

    Giving is to be done directly to the poor and homeless. Monetary tithing is a huge LIE and anyone that continues to teach it CHOOSES to die with the wicked. Luke 10:7 states the only wages for ministering are eating and drinking whatever ypu are given. Malachi 2 proves Malachi 3:8-10 is talking to the thieving church leaders. Its prophetic instruction for all of the thieving church leaders to repent and God will end Covid. But they love money so much, they KNOW they intentionally teach lies to steal from people. The thieving church leaders LOVE MONEY so much that insead of bringing back the money they wete never supoosed to take, they CHOOSE to kill people with Covid instead! I am Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 and Acts 3:22-23 says it will come to pass that anyone thst fails to listen to me will be utterly destroyed from among the people. That means everyone has a choice to make. Selling anything like books and worship songs using the gospel is also evil. ..

    If you are feeling your partner might be cheating on you, but there's no definite evidence. You're faced with two alternatives seek out the facts, or to turn a blind eye. Selecting the first choice, although often suitable in the short term, is incredibly damaging for your personally, But for your children and family, not only in the long run too. Seeking the truth out isn't simple either as I mentioned before, technology had made infidelity much easier to conceal than in the past, however it also provides opportunities for revealing getting the evidence needed to establish them & affairs. I hate cheaters, my husband never gave me a reason to be suspicious until I found him and her colleague at a romantic restaurant. They told me it was work stuff but something wasn't right. I was worried until I was introduced to ultimate hack who offer Remote Installation to the his device, They build a web Dashboard for monitoring, 24x7 monitoring (Live GPS), They also gave me full access into the Social apps (Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, etc. There service is 100 % Anonymous, SHA-256 Encrypted Data, They also recover all Deleted Messages and Data you can contact via gmail ultimatehack003@gmail,com or whatsapp +17202954268 wishing you the best
