    <description>The EquipCast is your weekly playbook for practical evangelization and parish ministry tools. Hosted by Jim Jansen and powered by Everyday Evangelization, this show is built for diocesan directors, parish leaders, and everyday Catholics who are ready to stop the programmatic noise, break through the grind, and build a clear path to discipleship that actually changes lives. We’ve been talking about the New Evangelization for thirty years, yet church renewal often feels like an endless cycle of empty activity while generations continue to lose their faith. If you are tired of managing decline and spinning your wheels in the messy middle of ministry, you don’t have to carry the weight alone. Every week, we break the default of "doing more" to deliver honest conversations and real stories from people who are finally seeing their faith communities thrive. Hit subscribe, head over to EverydayEvangelization.org to grab your free tools, and discover how to leave your ministry better than you found it.</description>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Have you ever avoided prayer because you were angry with God? I get it. Wrestling with our emotions, especially anger, in our relationship with the divine can feel overwhelming. But here's the thing: God can handle our raw, unfiltered emotions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today, I'm diving into a topic that hits close to home: expressing anger to God while keeping our faith intact. Join me as we explore:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The power of being genuine with God, even in our anger&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Practical tips for navigating anger in prayer using the "ARRR" method&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Inspiration from biblical figures who expressed anger while staying rooted in faith&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let's journey together through the complexities of human emotion and faith. Tune in and let's uncover how to authentically connect with God, even when our emotions run high.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Psalms of Lament:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/22" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Psalm 22&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/79" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Psalm 79&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/80" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Psalm 80&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/85" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Psalm 85&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/90" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Psalm 90&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  <itunes:subtitle>Raise your hand if you feel confident that you can help your children develop a personal relationship with Jesus. If I could see you all, I bet there would not be many hands in the air. We know how to teach rote prayers, but helping our children truly connect with Jesus feels a tad outside of a parent’s control. The reality is that the Lord gives us everything that we need to model a real and personal relationship with Jesus. Today’s guest, Becky Deaver, teaches us from her experience as a wife and mother of eight.</itunes:subtitle>
