What if one word changes the entire meaning of the Lord's Prayer?

In this episode of The Valiant Living Podcast, Matt Smallbone points out something many of us have overlooked:

Jesus didn't teach us to pray "My Father."

He taught us to pray "Our Father."

And He didn't teach us to pray "Give me my daily bread."

He taught us to pray "Give us this day our daily bread."

Those words remind us that faith was never meant to be lived alone.

Neither was recovery.

In our full conversation, Matt shares how praying the Lord's Prayer every day for an entire year transformed his understanding of prayer, community, surrender, forgiveness, and God's presence in everyday life.

“The mark is connection.”

In this powerful clip from Episode 63 of the Valiant Living Podcast, Julie Hurley shares what many children experience but struggle to explain:

A parent can do all the “right” things and still feel emotionally unavailable.

Especially with teenagers, connection matters more than performance.

This honest mother/daughter conversation explores recovery, family systems, emotional healing, and rebuilding trust.

“I would look at myself in the mirror and say… ‘Who are you?’”

Outwardly, everything still looked successful.

But internally, Sherry Young knew she had drifted far from her values, her identity, and herself.

That moment eventually led her to her first AA meeting.

Episode 63 of the Valiant Living Podcast is a powerful conversation with Sherry Young and Julie Hurley about addiction, family systems, recovery, and rebuilding a mother/daughter relationship through sobriety.

New episode of the Valiant Living Podcast is up — and this one might be one of the most honest conversations we've had on the show.

Episode 63: "Recovery on Both Sides."

Sherry Young and her daughter Julie Hurley sit down to talk about what addiction does to a family, what recovery actually looks like from both sides of it, and how trust grows back between a parent and child after it's been broken. They don't dress any of it up. They don't have to.

If you're walking this road right now — as the person in recovery, or as the parent, spouse, sibling, or friend of someone who is — this one's for you. And if you know someone who could use it, send it their way.

Sherry and Julie are also the founders of Right Fit Collaborative, where they help families find the right treatment fit for their loved ones. They know this work because they've lived it.

Tomorrow morning, five people who live this work every day are sitting down for a real conversation about something most families never hear named out loud: complex case management.

What happens when one provider isn't enough? When the right fit isn't right the first time? When a family needs more than a phone number and a referral?

We're bringing together five voices from across the field:

- Michael Simms — COO, All Points North
- Dr. Stephanie Emde — Chief Growth Officer, Valiant Living
- Drew Powell, PSAP — Director of Marketing & Alumni, Valiant Living
- Sherry Young — Right Fit Consulting
- Tyi Reddick — Head of Case Management, Valiant Living

If you're a clinician, a referring provider, or a family member who has navigated the messy middle of treatment coordination, this one is built for you.

Same room. Two worlds.

Tomorrow on TPN.health — a free 1.5-hour CE webinar exploring something most of us in this field don't talk about enough: the gap between how therapists and clients experience the same treatment environment.

Therapists see structure, policy, and clinical responsibility. Clients often experience surveillance, vulnerability, and loss of autonomy. The result? Shame, resistance, power struggles — and ruptures that could have been prevented.

Dr. Stephanie Emde, PsyD and Drew Powell unpack how that gap shapes the therapeutic relationship, and how to close it.

“Keep going. Don’t fake it.”

That line hits deep.

A lot of people spend years pretending:
Pretending they’re okay.
Pretending they still believe.
Pretending they aren’t hurting.

But healing starts when honesty starts.

In this clip, Father Chad Jarnigan talks about why some of the most powerful spiritual moments begin with simple honesty:

“I don’t know.”

And maybe that’s enough for today.

You don’t have to force certainty.
You don’t have to perform spirituality.
You just have to stay honest and keep going.

Recovery has a way of deconstructing everything.

Not just addiction.
Sometimes faith too.

In this clip, Father Chad Jarnigan talks about rebuilding spirituality in a way that is honest, sustainable, and rooted in love instead of hype.

“If you’re full of places and activities that don’t reflect love and care, then that needs to be deconstructed.”

That line hits deep.

Sometimes losing what was performative, shallow, or fear-based is actually the beginning of something healthier and more real.

This is a powerful conversation about faith, recovery, identity, and rebuilding your life from the inside out.
