The CYKAS Podcast

Revisiting the case of Dr. Matthew Falder, Graham Matthew, and Peter Scully and HurtCore pornography.

Does an invitation to the house of someone of the opposite sex constitute consent?

The story of how a victim of childhood sexual abuse is convicted of distributing child pornography and serves 40 months in prison. He was an aspiring young attorney, who lost so much, but came back stronger, because of the redemptive and healing power of God. This story serves as a reminder that our past does not dictate our future, that we need to judge less, and love more, by bringing people out of their sin of darkness into His marvellous light.

A look at the story of Ian Manuel's 26 year incarceration from 13-years-old, his subsequent release, and new book.

A discussion on the false imprisonment of Walter McMillan and Anthony Ray Hinton, and the movie Just Mercy that depicts their story and that of their lawyer Brian Stevenson founder of Equal Justice Initiative.

There are always 3 sides to every story, his version, her version and the truth in the middle. Are you willing to blindly believe everything you see and read? Do you perpetuate rumors by disseminating information that you've seen? What would you do in the midst of a false accusation?? How would you respond to an arrest and criminal charge when you're innocent?

A reminder to use caution when in receipt of pictures and videos; and to think twice before disseminating pornographic images. Sexual pleasure or enjoyment does not create consent, therefore we need to apply wisdom when hearing allegations of assault or rape. Two ears & one mouth mean we should listen more than we speak, hold back on unsolicited advice and pre-judgment and instead have an attitude of grace and empathy.

Guest and co-host Thobeka F. discusses human trafficking and modern day slavery in Afghanistan.

Let's stop allowing ourselves to be used and abused because we don't value ourselves; let's stop holding onto false hopes about a relationship that is NEVER going to happen; let's take people at face value and accept when they are not interested. Not everyone one is going to be a "yes be yes and no be no" person, so we need to understand that their silence speaks volumes & save ourselves from being broken hearted.

People make time for what's important to them, therefore when someone shows us their true colours aka lack of interest we need to believe them. We need to instead measure that person against the "Barry Factor" to ascertain if we are in the position of a side chick.

An appeal to listeners to stop asking "Why doesn't she leave?" and instead put the responsibility on themselves to help the victim/survivor out of the abusive relationship.
