For decades, Ed Squire lived with a pornography addiction that began when he was just nine years old. He tried therapy. He attended groups. He tried to stop. But the addiction followed him through adulthood, marriage, and even his years serving as a youth leader in church. Then one day, while setting up camera equipment for a friend, a simple question changed everything: “What can I pray for?” For the first time, Ed admitted what he had been carrying privately for years. In this short and deeply personal Ed Solo episode of Visible Kindness, Ed talks candidly about addiction, the pain that...

Thank you for listening and for being part of the Visible Kindness community. What if one of television's most popular dramas isn't really about medicine? Watching Grey's Anatomy for the first time surprised me. Beneath the hospital setting, I found something much deeper—people struggling to belong, trying to prove themselves, hiding fear behind confidence, and wondering if they were enough. In this first episode of Visible Kindness Reflections, I'm not reviewing the show. Instead, I'm sharing the life lessons it stirred within me and how they connect to my own journey through trauma,...

Jesus said the second greatest commandment is this: "Love your neighbor as yourself." But what did He actually mean? In this solo episode of Visible Kindness, Ed explores one of the most familiar teachings in Scripture and challenges a common modern assumption—that Jesus was teaching us to love ourselves first before we can love others. Drawing from Matthew 22, Luke 10, and the Parable of the Good Samaritan, Ed examines what Jesus said, what He didn't say, and why understanding the difference matters. As a survivor of significant trauma, Ed also shares how shame, guilt, and a distorted...

info_outlineIn Part 2 of this powerful conversation, I sit down again with Nicole Moehring to go deeper into the reality of abuse, justice, and the challenges families face when navigating systems that don’t treat every child equally.
Nicole shares the heartbreaking truth of how her two children — both victims of abuse — were treated very differently. Her daughter was heard. Justice was served. But her son, who has autism, was not given the same voice… and his case remains unresolved.
This episode goes beyond the story. It reveals the deeper issues that many families face — especially those raising children with disabilities — and why awareness, education, and advocacy are more important than ever.
WHAT YOU’LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE
- Why some victims are taken seriously… and others are not
- The hidden risks children with disabilities face
- The emotional toll of navigating a broken system
- Why abuse is often not reported — and who is really responsible
- How Nicole turned her pain into purpose through Voices of Change
- The importance of education, prevention, and ongoing conversations
