Summary

Dear friends, today we have a conversation about suicide. I want you to know that up front, so that you can listen without miniBFFs and know going into it what the topic is. One of your (and my!) favorite guests, Dr. Matthew Sleeth, is back today talking all about his new book Hope Always (it releases May 4, but go ahead and order today so it shows up for you next week!) and about how to be a force for life in a culture of suicide. This is an important conversation and one I think it very hope-filled. Listen and share it widely- let's be a part of saving lives!

0:00.0	Hi friends, welcome to another episode of That Sounds Fun. I'm your host Annie F. Downs.
0:18.9	I'm really happy to be here with you today. We've got a great show and store. But before
0:23.2	we jump into the conversation for today, I want to take a quick moment and tell you
0:26.2	about one of our incredible partners, Thistle Farms. So I want to let you in on a little
0:30.8	something. Mother's Day is coming up. It's Sunday, May 9th. If you did not know, put it
0:34.7	on your calendar. And it provides us with a special moment to honor so many special women
0:39.3	our lives, the moms, the mothering voices and our friends who have dreams of becoming
0:43.6	mothers. Well, I have the most beautiful Mother's Day idea for you. Thistle Farms is one
0:47.8	of my favorite organizations. Thistle Farms helps women survivors of trafficking, prostitution
0:53.0	and addiction get a second chance at life. They fund their mission while providing meaningful
0:58.4	employment for survivors by selling all these beautiful products like candles, lotions,
1:03.2	jewelry and textiles that are all made by women survivors in Nashville and around the
1:07.5	world. Through their amazing program, women receive housing, trauma therapy, education
1:12.8	and personal development, all completely free. Yo, I can't even tell you how lives are
1:17.3	changed through this program. I've gotten to see their work firsthand and I just believe
1:21.4	in it so much. It's a perfect chance for you to love on your mom or the mother figuring
1:26.9	life and lift up other women this Mother's Day with handmade gifts from Thistle Farms.org.
1:32.7	Just go to Thistle Farms.org and use the code that sounds fun for 15% off. That's
1:38.0	one five percent off. Again, that's Thistle Farms.org and the code that sounds fun for 15%
1:44.7	off. Today, our guest is one of your favorites. What am I favorite? Dr. Matthew Sleeth. He
1:51.3	was on episode 178 talking about reinforcing faith. He's the author of one of my favorite
1:57.1	Sabbath books called 246. He has a new book coming out on May 4th called Hope Always,
