Have you been moving so fast that you’ve left people in your wake? Has social media jaded your heart with regard to compassion? Do you typically judge first or love first?

Amanda Valantine is back with a new episode of Hope Worth Repeating featuring Carlos Whittaker’s new book, “How to Human: Three Ways to Share Life Beyond What Distracts, Divides, and Disconnects Us".

Whittaker’s book meets us in a post-pandemic society that is very disconnected and distracted. There’s not enough time or resources to help one another, let alone see one another fully. But as Jon Acuff said about the book in his New York Times review, Whittaker has served up “an antidote to what ails us.”

Whether you are feeling disillusioned by the lack of compassion in the world pr are feeling fatigued by the incessant distractions and devices, this book will speak to you.

As The Busted Halo Show continues to examine polarization in our world, Father Dave welcomes back friend of the show Carlos Whittaker to discuss his new book, “How to Human: Three Ways to Share Life Beyond What Distracts, Divides, and Disconnects Us.”

In a world that often feels polarized and disconnected, it’s more important than ever to show up with empathy. Carlos Whittaker is bringing hope to people all over the world. He’s the author of four books, host of the podcast Human Hope and a global speaker. You may recognize Carlos from Instagram, where’s he’s built a tribe of enthusiastic followers who join forces with Carlos to find connection, do good, and be in community. His latest book, How to Human, comes out on January 24 and is available for pre-order now. In our conversation today, we talk about how to step into difficult conversations with love, live up to our full potential, and move beyond what divides us.

This episode of “Faith & Calling” is coming in hot, as in hot topics! They’re everywhere these days, splintering even the deepest and longest of relationships. But Paula’s guests this week have managed to stay united (even thriving!) in marriage while being divided on politics, parenting and the vaccine. Sounds impossible, right? So what’s their big secret? 

Social media influencer (shout out to the #Instafamilia!), social justice advocate, speaker, and best-selling author Carlos Whittaker and his incredible wife Heather sit down with Paula for a straight-shooting conversation that will leave you encouraged and inspired by what happens when we stop standing on issues and start walking with each other!

The Whittakers have been married for 21 years and together share three teenage children. While they’ve worked in ministry for much of their marriage, they’ve built much of their solid foundation on the backs of trials, crisis and even personal betrayal, including Carlos’ early struggle with porn. After a lot of therapy and inner healing, he uncovered what was at the core of his addiction to artificial intimacy. He shares with Paula a powerful analogy for anyone looking to destroy the roots of a deep-seated habit and embrace true freedom on the other side. 

On the flip side, that season of dishonesty brought Heather face to face with navigating forgiveness. Despite wanting to throw in the towel on their marriage, she tells Paula about the powerful image God gave her of what was actually going on, which led her to pull back and focus on the bigger problem. Hear what she learned in the process about her own deep-seated habits – and her warning for others who may be wishing for a different kind of life than the one they find themself in. 

The Whittakers are the real deal and this episode is packed with real joy and wisdom from two imperfect people who know, trust, and rely on God like their life, marriage and parenting depends on it. If you could use some hope, let this conversation with Heather and Carlos - the self-described “hope dealer” - encourage you to let the Spirit move!
