I am a psychologist, wife and mother of three teenagers. Three years ago I started a mental health podcast, called Never Perfect with an ADHD psychologist . It comforts me greatly to know that life is never going to be perfect, and we all struggle navigating this complicated life. As a Christian, my faith is one of my biggest struggles but it gives me more hope and peace than anything else. Being still and tapping into the unseen may be the most important thing we ever do, yet is one of my biggest challenges in life, Christians should be the most humble, compassionate and loving people, if they are modeling their lives after Jesus, and yet many aren’t. So many people are understandably turned off by Christians who are judging, self-righteous, or cold ( some call these people “assholes” and wonder if they’re actually Christians), and I am personally sad and angry about this, because Jesus was none of these things. Other people won’t crack open the Bible or the doors of the church, and many have misconceptions about what faith is or what it looks like. In this podcast, I will be interviewing people who are real and relatable Christians who represent Jesus well (in my opinion) and also sharing things that have inspired me and strengthened my faith and spark flames in my soul, from verses, passages, or stories to interviews with pastors, friends, and just anyone who inspires me to greater faith.

Does Being a Nice Person Get You to Heaven? With Roger Gulick, M.Div. And his joyful wife Joy
At the age of 86 and only six days after moving into an assisted living facility because of terminal cancer, Roger Gulick has agreed to share his life story with us today. Roger and his wife Joy have been in ministry, for more than 50 years. He and his wife Joy have been married for over 60 years, and their life has been quite the adventure, whether that was pastoring one of the churches in four different states, or traveling around the world ministering to pastors and their families for 17 years. Up until his college years, Roger believed that being a nice person would get him to heaven because he felt like he was “nicer” then 93% of the population. When someone explained to him that Christ did for him what he couldn’t do for himself (ie, live a perfect life) and gave himself up for him, his whole life changed and he has devoted the rest of his life to ministry. Joy has published a couple of books and she will soon be a guest on Never Perfect Faith as well. Attached is a beautiful song written 119 years ago that echoes the sentiments shared today, entitled “He Will Hold Me Fast”
