In cultures where selflessness and sacrifice are often glorified, it's easy to confuse them with their unhealthy look-a-like: self-neglect.

Join us in this episode as we delve into:

• The nuances and differences between selflessness vs. self-neglect and how we often see this show up in our Asian American Christian contexts

• Why it's so common for Christians to overlook this difference

• What makes us gravitate towards self-neglect without even knowing it

• What it means to genuinely help and serve others WITHOUT neglecting, abandoning, or losing ourselves

• The common signs of self-neglect to watch out for (and why it's dangerous)

• How Jesus models how to practically live out true, biblical, healthy selflessness

We explore all of this and more based on Scriptural insights, our own struggles and stories, and practical tips you can apply in your own life.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the demands of serving others or struggled to prioritize your own needs without guilt - this episode is for you.

We pray this conversation helps you set boundaries that honor and protect your well-being, while better understanding God's heart for you to healthily love and serve others.

How can we navigate tragedy with both grief and hope?

In this special episode, we sit down with our friends and house church pastors (and first-ever couple on the podcast) Jared and Candace Madamba, as they share their personal experiences of the Maui fires and how they've been processing everything going on - but also the opportunities and signs of hope they see, even amidst the heaviness of tragedy.

Whether you're looking for ways to help those affected by the Maui fires, or simply want to be inspired by real-life examples of how to find hope and redemption in the midst of darkness, we invite you to join us for this candid conversation as we explore the unshakable power of faith and the Ohana spirit that we're called to embody anywhere we are in the world.
