  • Resumen

  • Biblical Encouragement for Adoptive Parents Did you finally realize your dream of having a family only to have your happily ever after turn into a nightmare? Are you constantly second-guessing your parenting, anxious about whether your child will make good choices and remain faithful? Do you wish more than anything that your child would know Christ and just turn out ”OK”? Have you neglected yourself to the point that it’s taken a personal toll on you? Hi Neighbor! Welcome to Anchors of Encouragement. I’m Tim Maudlin: Husband, Adoptive Parent, Disciple of Christ, and Ambassador of Encouragement. I too felt the joy of having a family of my own and I wished we could be like other families. But I found myself up late at night, anxious about my child’s future and asking myself, ”Why is this happening? Am I a failure as a parent?” It was only by grabbing a lifeline from God and my friends that I was able to navigate the challenges of adoptive life. And now I can’t wait to share everything I’ve learned with you. My mission is to be your friend and encourager, to throw adoptive parents a lifeline, and offer biblical mindset support as you partner with Christ, providing stability as your anchor when you need it the most. If you’re ready for real and raw talk, with strategies and insights that lead to peace beyond comprehension so you not only survive but thrive in life’s storms, this podcast is for you. Hope and Healing are on the way! I’m here for you, neighbor!

  • 131 – Adoptive Parent Needing Respite? 3 Ways To Embrace the Anchor of Retreat?
    Jun 22 2024

    I surprised my friends who went with me. Honestly, I surprised myself too because I never imagined that I would allow myself to do what I was about to do. I was anxious and I was nervous. And not to be overly dramatic, but in some respects, I was scared to death. However, I did it. And it was one of the most exhilarating forms of respite I've ever experienced.

    Hi Neighbor,

    Welcome to another unplugged episode of Anchors of Encouragement. In this episode, I would like to build on the concept of respite we first introduced in Episode 40.

    Respite is something that adoptive parents have told me is important to them as they navigate the challenges of adoptive parenting.

    Today’s story is about how I got out of my comfort zone by allowing a friend to lead me to respite and retreat. I did something I never would have entertained had it not been for her.

    Consider this story with me as we look at 3 ways to embrace the Anchor of Retreat.

    Hope and healing are on the way.

    Your Thrill-Seeking Neighbor, Tim

    P.S. Oops! After I had recorded and published this episode, I realized there was a 5th activity option. I had suppressed it because it caused as much if not more anxiety than the zip line, kayaking in an underground cavern. I can’t swim! I think you can see why I suppressed this option:)

  • 130 – Remembering Amp: The Impact of Pets on Our Hearts
    Jun 14 2024

    When it came time to say goodbye, I couldn’t get the words out. I gently rubbed his head one last time and walked away.

    Hi Neighbor,

    Welcome to a special memorial episode of Anchors of Encouragement. I want to share something deeply personal and touching with you today.

    There comes a time in every pet parent’s life when we must say goodbye to our beloved companions. This episode is my tribute to Amp, who brought so much joy and comfort into my life.

    I first mentioned Amp at the beginning of this podcast in Episode 5. As that story illustrates, he and I had a special connection.

    Take a moment to embrace the fur baby anchors in your life. Whether it’s a cat, dog, horse, or any other cherished pet, their unique ability to sense our emotions and provide comfort is truly invaluable.

    Let them be your anchor of encouragement, as Amp was for me.

    Hope and healing are on the way.

    Your Neighbor, Tim

  • 129 – The Unexpected, Positive Benefits of Embracing the Anchor of Solitude
    Jun 8 2024

    I couldn't sleep, so I’m up doing what I learned from Jonny to regulate myself. I never know the direction these quiet moments will take, but I know something positive always happens... and that’s what I want to share with you today.

    Hi Neighbor,

    Do you enjoy unexpected, positive surprises? I do! In this episode of Anchors of Encouragement, I share a story about why I value the anchor of solitude and hope you’ll consider embracing it too.

    We’ll also reflect on a passage from the book of Psalms and discuss solitude from episodes 5, 71, and 128. (see links below)

    Help, hope, and healing are on the way.

    Your Neighbor, Tim
