Welcome to Revive Ministries Podcast. This month’s theme is “Healing Our Communities,” which dives into some questions like, “How can I Help?” Whether you’re a caretaker or suffering, I have seen strong communities be very helpful towards healing. Sometimes I think of a comedian I watched one time and the paraphrased quote that I continue to tell myself and to those I assist: “Don’t be the mayor of nothing.” When I was struggling with my condition, I spent countless hours trying to be understood while feeling more and more like a burden. I had to reframe and accept that it did not require others to understand to get the support needed. Healing communities provide that safe space to gain this insight, speaking from experience."The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members." – Coretta Scott KingToday, we have Phyllis E. Leavitt to discuss this month's theme.Disclaimer: If you are in crisis, please seek appropriate professional help immediately.

I read a comment recently that the music was distracting, and as I cannot guarantee having the time to make changes to all my previous episodes, I was fortunate enough to make this change.
