    PART 1: “Parenting Through Grace, Not Projection”

    🎙️ Resilient Faith Podcast Miniseries: Built on the Rock

    EPISODE 3, PART 1: “Parenting Through Grace, Not Projection”

    Hosted by Carrie Davis | Featuring Michael D. Davis-Thomas

    Produced by MDDTSpeaks Ministries Description Parenting is sacred—but it’s also sanctifying. It exposes our deepest wounds, mirrors our unhealed places, and confronts us with the uncomfortable truth: we may be projecting our own pain onto the very people we’re called to protect. In Episode 3, Part 1 of Built on the Rock, Carrie Davis and Michael D. Davis-Thomas open a necessary, raw, and revelatory conversation on what it means to parent through grace—not projection. This episode pulls back the curtain on generational trauma, survival-mode parenting, control disguised as discipline, and the emotional scars left when parents operate from unprocessed pain. Carrie vulnerably shares her own journey as a mother navigating triggers, blended family dynamics, and emotional fatigue, while Michael offers lived experience, biblical insight, and a powerful reminder: “Your child shouldn’t have to heal from the version of you they met when you weren’t healed yet.” Together, they wrestle with the tough questions:
    • What do we say to the child inside us who never received grace?
    • How do we disciple our children without dominating them?
    • What if we’re co-parenting in chaos, but still trying to walk in Christ?
    From spiritual insight to practical truth, this episode is not about perfect parenting—it’s about surrendered parenting. It’s a call to lay down ego, learn how God parents us, and begin again, even if we weren’t shown how.

    Key Themes & Segment Highlights

    🔹 Opening Reflection — “What Broke You?”

    Michael and Carrie explore how survival, trauma, and past dysfunction often influence how we show up as parents. They ask listeners to examine: Are you parenting from wisdom… or woundedness?

    🔹 Discipline Without Damage

    Together with a surprise guest, the hosts unpack the difference between healthy correction and toxic control. They challenge listeners to reject culturally normalized harshness and return to parenting led by grace, not fear.

    🔹 Co-Parenting in Chaos

    When the family dynamic is fractured, the call to Christlike parenting doesn’t disappear—it deepens. Michael reminds us, “You’re not God—your job is to model Him.” From setting boundaries to releasing bitterness, this section equips those navigating complex co-parenting realities.

    Key Scriptures & Reflections
    • 📖 Proverbs 22:6 — Align your child to their God-given purpose, not your unresolved expectations.
    • 📖 Deuteronomy 6:6–7 — Are you impressing faith… or fear?
    • 📖 Colossians 3:21 — Don’t break your child’s spirit in the name of correction. Spiritual & Practical Takeaways

  • Dating While Devoted: God, Lust, and the Wait

    Dating While Devoted: God, Lust, and the Wait
    2025/06/01
    🎙️ Resilient Faith Podcast Miniseries: Built on the Rock
    EPISODE 2: “Dating While Devoted: God, Lust, and the Wait”
    Hosted by Carrie Davis | Featuring Michael D. Davis-Thomas
    Produced by MDDTSpeaks Media

    What does it mean to date while devoted? In a world where hookups are easier than healing and standards are often sacrificed for attention, this episode tackles the real tension between honoring God and navigating the emotional landmines of modern dating.

    In Episode 2 of Built on the Rock, host Carrie Davis and guest/co-host Michael D. Davis-Thomas, CEO/Founder of MDDTSpeaks and host of the Resilient Faith Podcast, take us deep into the heart of spiritually-centered relationships. This isn’t a “Christian dating advice” episode—it’s an unapologetically honest conversation about lust, loneliness, spiritual boundaries, trauma, discernment, emotional sobriety, and waiting well.

    Michael and Carrie dismantle the myths of godly dating being boring or repressive and instead frame it as a form of spiritual protection and emotional maturity. They address how trauma can distort clarity, why silence and secrecy in relationships can be spiritual warfare, and how to differentiate between desire and discernment when it comes to love and lust.

    🔥 “If they’re fine, saved, and toxic—that’s still a no. Being equally yoked means more than just claiming Jesus. It’s about whether their life reflects Him.” – Michael D. Davis-Thomas

    Whether you're single, dating, waiting, healing, or reevaluating what love even looks like for you—this episode will convict, challenge, and comfort you all at once. You’ll walk away with a clearer picture of what it means to be anchored in God before ever swiping right.

    Key Talking Points
    • Why God must be at the center before any romantic connection
    • Spiritual identity and emotional sobriety in dating
    • The difference between desire and discernment
    • Boundaries as protection—not punishment
    • Recognizing red flags we often spiritualize
    • The impact of trauma, casual sex, and secrecy on spiritual alignment
    • Navigating loneliness, lust, and the longing for love without compromising your call
    Featured Scriptures & Contexts
    • Proverbs 4:23 – “Above all else, guard your heart...”
      → Hebrew root for “heart” means your full inner self: mind, will, emotions.
    • 2 Corinthians 6:14 – “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers...”
      → Paul was speaking to spiritual alignment, not just spiritual labels.
    • Song of Solomon 2:7 – “Do not awaken love until the time is right...”
      → An ancient warning against rushing emotional and physical intimacy.
    Reflection Prompts📝 Journaling:
    • What patterns am I calling “preference” that are really unhealed trauma?
    • Am I emotionally attached or spiritually aligned?
    • Have I awakened love too soon out of fear of being alone?
    🙏🏽 Prayer:

    “Lord, align my heart with Your truth. Heal what I hide. Guard me from counterfeits and distractions. Teach me to wait with expectation—not desperation—and to recognize Your voice over my own desires. Amen.”

    Action Items for Listeners
    • Reevaluate your dating boundaries through the lens of God’s Word
    • Hold yourself accountable to the emotional and spiritual fruit of your choices
    • Examine who’s in your life: do they push you toward God or pull you away?
    • Reflect on your waiting season: is it refinement or resistance?
    • Share this episode with someone silently struggling with dating in faith

  • What a Relationship with God Really Is

    What a Relationship with God Really Is
    2025/05/17
    What if the reason your relationships feel off isn’t about them—but about how you see Him?

    In the debut episode of our powerful new miniseries, Built on the Rock, host Carrie Davis and guest co-host Michael D. Davis-Thomas dismantle the surface-level definitions of faith many of us were raised on. This is not a conversation about religion. It’s about relationship. Raw, honest, unfiltered communion with the God who wants more than your Sunday best—He wants you.

    Titled “Start Here: What a Relationship with God Really Is”, this episode digs deep into the foundations of faith that often get lost in tradition, trauma, and performance-driven spirituality. Through authentic storytelling, scriptural grounding, and hard-won wisdom, Michael and Carrie explore what it truly means to walk with God—not just work for Him.

    From breaking generational habits of passive belief to learning how to hear God's voice in the silence, this conversation is an invitation to rebuild your understanding of intimacy, identity, and intentionality with God. If you’ve ever felt like you were doing all the right things but still felt far from Him—this episode was crafted for you.

    Scriptures referenced:

    John 10:27 — “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.”
    James 4:8 — “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you…”
    Psalm 42:1-2 — “As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God…”

    Real Talk Moment:

    “If you don’t trust God with your wounds, you’ll worship Him with walls up.” This episode explores:
    • The difference between knowing of God and actually knowing Him
    • How childhood faith becomes adult formation—or dysfunction
    • Learning to approach God honestly without performance or polish
    • Why your view of God shapes every other relationship in your life
    • Practical, non-performative steps to begin (or restart) a relationship with God today
    Whether you’re deconstructing, rebuilding, or just now searching for what’s real—this is your invitation to start here. Not with religion. Not with rules. But with relationship.
    Because everything else falls apart… if He’s not first. LISTEN NOW on the Resilient Faith Podcast.
