LOVE THAT STAYED

Host: Barbara A. F. Brehon

Before the celebration of Easter morning, there is a moment to sit with the cross.

In this episode of UNBOXED on Purpose, Rev. Dr. Barbara A. F. Brehon reflects on the love of Christ that stayed—through suffering, silence, and sacrifice. Rather than rushing to resurrection, this episode invites listeners to honor the cost and wait with hope.

This Holy Week reflection is for anyone learning to trust God in silence, uncertainty, or waiting.

🎧 Listen and reflect.

As Palm Sunday approaches, we often focus on praise while overlooking preparation.

In this episode of UNBOXED on Purpose, Rev. Dr. Barbara A. F. Brehon reflects on Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem—an entry marked not by power, but by humility and obedience. While the crowd celebrated with expectation, Jesus moved forward knowing the cost ahead.

This conversation invites listeners to examine their hearts before Holy Week begins and ask:

Are we praising Christ for who He is, or for who we want Him to be?

🎧 Listen, reflect, and prepare for Holy Week on purpose.

TITLE  From Calling to Confidence

Host: Barbara A. F. Brehon

What if confidence is not something you wait for, but something you build by answering God’s call?

In this episode of UNBOXED on Purpose, Rev. Dr. Barbara A. F. Brehon welcomes Tara LaFon Gooch—CEO, international keynote speaker, creator of the GRASP Method®, host of the GRASP Confidence podcast, and co-author of the bestselling anthology From Cocoon to Soar.

Tara shares her journey from growing up in rural Maryland with limited resources to achieving corporate success, then courageously walking away to pursue entrepreneurship and faith-aligned work. Together, we explore how calling precedes confidence, why obedience matters more than certainty, and how faith attracts the right people at the right time.

✨ Topics include:

• Calling before confidence
• Faith-filled risk and obedience
• The power of support and alignment
• Living beyond self-imposed limitations
• Stepping boldly into what God has already assigned

Title: A Healing Journey to Authenticity

Airs: Thursday, February 12, 2026

Host: Barbara A. F. Brehon

Presented by: Favored by the Father Ministries

Description:

In UNBOXED on Purpose Episode 109, host Barbara A. F. Brehon welcomes Chantale C. Nyonka, award-winning author, Registered Nurse, and Mindset Transition Coach, for a powerful conversation titled A Healing Journey to Authenticity.

Chantale shares her deeply personal story of healing, shaped by childhood caregiving in Africa, unspoken trauma, survival mode living, and her eventual transformation through spiritual alignment and inner healing. Drawing from her nursing career and lived experience, she explores how unaddressed pain impacts identity, behavior, and emotional wellness, and why true healing begins at the root.

This episode speaks to anyone who has learned to hide, silence their truth, or survive rather than live fully. Chantale invites us to stop performing, start healing, and align with who God designed us to be.

✨ In this episode, you will hear:

• How childhood experiences shape identity and self-expression
• The connection between healing, authenticity, and spiritual alignment
• Why survival mode delays wholeness
• The power of addressing pain at its root
• Encouragement for parents, leaders, and caregivers

🎧 Featured Guest, Chantale C. Nyonka, is the author of On My Way Back to Yesterday: A Journey to Authenticity and the Journey to Authenticity Workbook. Her mission is to help others heal, rise, and live authentically and unapologetically.

Mobilizing Ministry with Digital Application

From Daily Text Messages to Digital Discipleship | 3 Years of Growth

What began three years ago as a simple way to share daily messages has grown into a space for intentional discipleship and spiritual formation. The app for Favored by the Father Ministries launched as a simple solution to share daily encouragement.

Brehon reflects on the app’s journey— inception, why it still matters, and what is new in the latest update—including Brookside, Mini Masterclasses, music, and a redesigned flow. From Scripture-based encouragement to expanded studies and music inspired by the ministry, the app continues to grow as a resource for those seeking consistency, depth, and faithful alignment in their walk with Christ.

This episode is both a look back and a look ahead—an invitation to grow with intention and remain open to what God is unfolding.

NOT AS MAN SEES

Host: Barbara A. F. Brehon

Welcome to UNBOXED on Purpose — where faith, life, and leadership meet real conversation. In this New Year’s Day episode, we welcome Ashley Mankanya, a business client specialist in banking from the United Kingdom, originally from Zimbabwe — the “Glorious Land” that hosts one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Ashley shares a powerful reflection on 1 Samuel 16:7 “For the Lord does not see as man sees.”

He reminds us that while the world is consumed by outward appearance and status, God looks deeper — into the heart.

In this episode, we explore:

✨ Lessons from his grandparents’ faith legacy

⚽ How football (soccer) instilled spiritual discipline

💼 What happens when you bring faith into your work life

🧠 A mindset shift from impressing people to pleasing God

💡 Why true success is measured by internal richness, not material gain

Join us for a heartfelt conversation about identity, purpose, and the quiet transformation that happens when you live for an audience of One.

📖 Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 16:1–7

Professional • Leadership-Oriented • Purpose-Focused

🎨 Making the Invisible Visible: A Conversation with Prophetic Artist, Deb Brown Maher

This week on UNBOXED on Purpose, I had the privilege of speaking with Deb Brown Maher—Prophetic Artist, perspective illuminator, and author of Sell Like Jesus: 7 Characteristics of Christ for Ethical Sales. Deb’s journey beautifully blends leadership, creativity, and spiritual sensitivity.

From learning technique in a Pennsylvania attic to developing a God-centered sales methodology, Deb now helps individuals discover and release the masterpiece within. Our conversation explores how childhood passions, divine nudges, and courageous self-reflection can guide us toward meaningful, purpose-filled work.

Key leadership insights from this episode:

•Purpose often emerges from what influenced us early in life.

•The gifts that make us effective professionally can also fuel our creative and spiritual impact.

TITLE: Healing and Forgiveness

Host Barbara A. F. Brehon

Featuring Rhonda James Woolard

What does it really take to heal after deep trauma? Author, Certified Master Coach, and Survivor Rhonda James Woolard joins us on this episode of UNBOXED on Purpose to share her journey from pain to freedom through the power of forgiveness.

Raised in Jamesville, NC, Rhonda once thought she’d become a teacher—but God called her to a different kind of classroom: teaching others how to reclaim hope, release shame, and step into healing. A sexual abuse survivor, Rhonda shares how writing her truth in books like A Catalyst Change and A Time to Heal: 7 Steps to Healing and Forgiveness After Sexual Abuse and Assault helped her forgive, release, and grow closer to God.

💡 In this episode, we explore:

• The power of self-forgiveness and how it transforms mental health
• What it means to face the truth of trauma without being defined by it
• The importance of mentorship, love, and community in the healing process
• How God can take childhood passions and align them with ultimate purpose

• Author, Speaker, Social Worker, and Certified Master Life Coach

Failure Isn’t Final | with Jeremy Witherow

In this episode, I sit down with itinerant gospel minister Jeremy Witherow to unpack his powerful journey from brokenness to redemption. Originally from New Zealand and now based in Singapore, Jeremy shares how early failures and setbacks became the building blocks God used to shape his calling. From leaving school without graduating to discovering his purpose as a prophetic voice, Jeremy’s story reminds us that failure is never the end—it’s often the beginning of transformation.

👉 Topics we cover:

• Childhood passions, setbacks, and resilience
• How God reframes our failures for His purpose
• The role of prophetic ministry in today’s church
• Why obedience and availability matter more than ability

📚 Jeremy is the author of The Voice of Prophecy and The Handbook for Prophetic Ministry.

• Stepping out of the “comfortable box” of procrastination
• Learning from failure and trusting God’s timing

In this inspiring episode, we welcome Jan D. Thomas from Las Cruces, New Mexico — a retired prison warden, pastor, published author, poet, and artist whose 85 years of life are filled with remarkable service and creativity.

Jan shares his journey From Blunder to Blessing, drawing from decades of experience in prison ministry, Celebrate Recovery programs, and outreach to the homeless and migrants. He’s the author of multiple books, including From Blunder to Blessing, How to Say What You Mean Without Being Mean, and the Mesilla Traveler series, and co-author of Suppose Trees Could Talk. His writing is rooted in honesty, lessons learned from mistakes, and a deep commitment to valuing people.

From working his way up in the penitentiary system to leading with compassion, Jan reminds us that if people don’t matter, then God doesn’t matter. He reflects on how God uses both our failures and successes to reach others — and how our creative gifts can serve as tools for ministry.

💡 Key Takeaway: Life’s blunders can become blessings when we let God use them for His glory.

In this powerful episode of UNBOXED on Purpose, Holly Moore shares her remarkable journey from childhood dreams in Pennsylvania to finding her purpose behind the wheel of a taxi in Florida. Once aspiring to be a lawyer and always passionate about writing, Holly's path took unexpected turns—leaving behind a prestigious career and stepping out on a blind faith journey that led her straight into divine alignment.

Raised by a values-driven grandmother and inspired by her Uncle Dave’s call to surrender to Jesus, Holly opens up about her transformation from religious routine to Kingdom revelation. Today, she sees miracles, signs, and wonders unfold in the backseat of her taxi—where passengers become divine appointments.

Holly reflects on identity, boundaries, and her God-given mission to help others, including those reentering society from prison. She shares how her childhood passions for justice and programming evolved into a calling that merges transportation, ministry, and restoration.

🔥 Key Highlights:

·    Discovering identity in God, not in titles

·    Walking away from comfort into calling

·    Ministering in motion—faith on four wheels

·    Setting healthy boundaries and knowing your worth

·    Seeing life through the lens of Deborah and Ruth

·    Helping others rebuild life after incarceration

💡 “Don't let the opinions of others keep you stuck in a box.” — Holly Moore

🎧 Tune in to hear how this modern-day Deborah turned her taxi into a mobile ministry—and why trusting God’s timing changes everything.

Topic: FINDING YOUR SILVER LINING

A child of Cuban immigrants, Dr. Morhaim shares the formative lessons of his upbringing—where the importance of democratic ideals, professional integrity, and cultural pride were instilled early on.

With deep reflections on perseverance, purpose, and character, Dr. Morhaim encourages us to focus on what we do well and keep striving to do it better. Learn how he finds his own silver linings—in both career and life—and how staying connected to family, heritage, and continuous learning fuels his journey.

Title: KINGDOM ASSIGNMENT featuring Jarvis Guthrie, Jr.

Welcome back to UNBOXED on Purpose!

In Episode 86, we are honored to welcome back Brother Jarvis Guthrie—a servant leader, justice ambassador, and living testimony of God’s transformative power. You may remember him from Episode 9, “Saved by Grace” (March 14, 2024), where he shared how Saved by Grace Ministries was birthed while he was incarcerated from 2012–2014.

Since then, Brother Jarvis has continued to walk faithfully in his calling:

✨ Ordained minister since 2015

✨ Bachelor’s degree in Supervision & Management – Florida State College of Jacksonville

✨ Justice Ambassador for Prison Fellowship, advocating for returning citizens in Washington, D.C.

✨ Fatherhood Specialist with Family Support Services, helping fathers reunite with their children

✨ Visionary of a 60-acre reentry program in Palatka, FL—Nazareth Farms, a refuge for returning citizens

In this powerful conversation, Brother Jarvis shares his Kingdom Assignment—a God-given mission to empower men transitioning from prison back into society with dignity, faith, and purpose. From tackling the heartbreak of generational cycles to building pathways of restoration, his story will challenge and inspire you to see how God can use every season of life for His glory.

🔹 Key Themes We Unbox Together:

• The challenges and triumphs of developing a reentry program

Today, we are honored to hear from Rev. Dr. Kimberly H. Holmes, a woman of deep faith, growth, and grit whose journey reflects the living legacy of this ministry.

From obeying divine “hazard lights” to reshaping boundaries, Dr. Holmes gives us a powerful glimpse into what it means to grow in God, walk in alignment, and carry legacy with courage and clarity.

Featured Highlights:

• How she’s mentoring others with greater intentionality and wisdom
• The joy of digital discipleship and app development as ministry tools
• Embracing a new rhythm of life, family, and ministry balance

In this compelling episode, we journey with Roy Lee Jarmon—affectionately known as Simon, your Poetry Man—as he shares his transformative story of resilience, revelation, and purpose. Raised on farms in Mississippi among many siblings, Roy experienced unique moments of solitude and mentorship with his godfather that deeply shaped his early life and love for reading.

After enduring confusing and painful experiences, Roy was ultimately diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Through prayer, professional counseling, and unrelenting faith, he began a journey of healing that led him to his calling: advocating for veterans and expressing the complexities of life through poetry.

Now based in New Jersey, Roy dedicates his time to supporting fellow veterans and educating civilians on how to cultivate more compassionate relationships with those impacted by war-related trauma. In this episode, he shares powerful insights and reads some of his favorite original poems, offering a window into the soul of a man whose journey to purpose was anything but ordinary.

Tune in to hear how a Damascus Road moment changed everything—and birthed a poet, a veteran’s advocate, and a voice for the unheard.

John Milor is from central California, is a combat Vet, and retired Chief of Cyber Operations for the US Western Air Defense Sector. He is also an author of 14 published books. John is mostly known for pioneer research in the field of Christian Ufology, which is a combination of ancient astronaut theory and end-times prophecy.

Intrinsically baked in since he was an inquisitive child, John has been existential. His mother fed that tendency by answering his questions. He recalled his grandmother sharing something when he was about five years old. After 60 years of never telling anyone, she told the family about seeing a UFO and an alien when she was a child. His young mind became deeply immersed in the paranormal. Years later while in the military, he had a unique encounter. Moreover, after becoming a Christian, he began seeing realities of encyclopedic knowledge in the scriptures. He shared a few of the 750 scriptural references in his book entitled Christian Ufology.

From winning second place in a district poetry contest in third grade to becoming a multilingual global traveler, Berry’s path has been shaped by his eclectic heritage and the wisdom of elders.

His influences range from his father to musical icons like Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, and Janet Jackson. A spontaneous push from friends led to his first live performance, setting the stage for a lifelong passion for artistic expression. Berry has since authored two books, each reflecting his unique perspective on humanity. Berry’s First Collection: Dream / Fantasy / Reality encourages readers to pursue their dreams at any stage in life, while The Shade of Generosity explores themes of acceptance, understanding, and the beauty of differences.

TITLE Surrender to Healing

Barbara A. F. Brehon, host

Pamela G. Cappetta, guest

Summary: In her mild-mannered fashion, Dr. Pammela G. Cappetta talked about the importance of not hiding your trauma and shame. She uses her children’s book, about her therapy dog, Maude, teaching the granddaughter to be mindful (present in the moment). Her childhood passion was her dog and nature. She lacked confidence and was afraid to speak up because of church hurt, yet she developed confidence after recognizing why her family was dysfunctional. Her larger community kept her focused though she was unhappy in her home. Decades of fighting childhood trauma evolved into her becoming a therapist who identifies with suffering.

Bio: Pamela G. Cappetta, EdD, LPC, LMFT is an expert in mindfulness with over 25 years of experience helping others heal from life's challenges. Her passion lies in guiding individuals to overcome obstacles that block them from living spiritually enriched and balanced lives. By integrating mindfulness, meditation, and psychotherapy, Dr. Cappetta empowers her clients to connect with their spiritual core and cultivate wellness in every area of life.

Her journey into the counseling profession began with a deeply personal mission. Growing up in a dysfunctional and abusive environment where silence and secrecy were the norm, she developed a heartfelt desire to create safe spaces for children to share their experiences and build healthy relationships. Initially specializing in child therapy, Dr. Cappetta expanded her focus to marriage and family therapy, recognizing the importance of addressing the needs of parents alongside their children.

Since 1995, Dr. Cappetta has operated a private practice in Williamsburg, Virginia, and has served as an allied health professor at Williamsburg Place & Farley Center since 1994. Her work inspires hope and transformation, empowering individuals and families to lead meaningful lives filled with balance and connection.

LIFE IS A CLASSROOM: Always Learning

Barbara A. F. Brehon, host

Curtis Orloff, guest

Summary: Curtis Orloff is an army veteran and oilfield geologist by profession. He has authored multiple books and has a colorful way of expressing his thoughts about life-long learning. Curtis had hopes of being a professional golfer. Since that did not pan out, he turned to what he had always adored – history. His writing combines details of living on oil rigs with bratty yuppy characters. You will learn about what actually happens on oil fields in the mid 1980’s.

Bio: Curtis Orloff is an oilfield geologist whose background was devoid of snobbery. The vicissitudes of the oil industry saw him alternately wearing a suit in a downtown office, coveralls in deserts and jungles, and the uniform of a utility company employee, reading meters. In one downturn, he taught special needs children. In another, he peeled shrimp and delivered po'boys in New Orleans. It was then he saw the drama and comedy on display in a popular sandwich shop. He worked with colorful people from all walks of life while getting to know the business and the problems the owner had to deal with. Ultimately, he returned to the oil industry and did so well that he bought into the business. That it went bankrupt did not diminish the glowing memories of all he saw and experienced, as well as of the people he met. The fact all involved were Orleanians ensured they landed on their feet, including the author, who made the city his adopted home.
