The Knowing Place

By Chuck Smith

Over the course of the last four decades, I've learned that perspective is an integral part of our mental, psychological, emotional, and spiritual health. We're advised to seek wise counsel and perspectives from others is the best way to get this counsel. The Knowing Place platform allows for open discussion, transparency, and quality conversations that only seek to empower, liberate, and encourage.

Minisode 13.1: Just Pray?

For far too long prayer has been used as a cheap out, almost as a way to not take any action, but to offer some form of good tidings to those in need. Prayer should be a call to action, not an easy way out of taking action.

Episode 8: There Is Hope: Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Domestic violence and its impact is one of the many growing problems we face in our society. A key way to help combat this problem is through advocacy, education, and ensuring that adequate resources exist to facilitate safe, effective intervention, protection, and prosecution of such violent crimes. All too often victims go unheard, but with efforts such as this, we can continue to be a voice for the voiceless and hopefully and lighthouse in otherwise dark waters. #domesticviolence
