from Neurodivergent Faith

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when the structures and forms held up as faithful or godly don’t make room for your neurotype?When the “right way” to minister, to lead, to show up—was not made with your wiring in mind?In this honest and liberating conversation, I sit down with coach and fellow ADHDer John Miller. Together, we name the ways religious spaces often spiritualize and moralize rigid frames—frames that can bring deep shame when we can’t (and weren’t meant to) fit inside them.We talk about John’s journey of discovering he has ADHD and how he has moved from self-doubt to self-acceptance as a person and a minister. Together, we explore how redefining concepts like faithfulness and redeeming the time can open up space for neurodivergent bodies, minds, and callings.Email John at: [email protected] To connect further, find Josh on Facebook, Instagram or email at: [email protected].

I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans.We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature.
