Ep. 82 There Were Aliens in the Parking Lot… and I Learned Something Holy
A Called & Curious conversation where faith, story, and brain science intertwine to help you live from the overflow.
Ever felt like you didn’t belong — like an alien trying to shine light in a world that feels a little darker?
Me too.
In this episode of Called & Curious, I share the story of what happened when our team showed up at a community Trunk-or-Treat dressed as green aliens. Between candy buckets and creepy decorations, we discovered a holy lesson about fear, faith, and emotional safety — and how showing up with intention can transform even the darkest spaces.
You’ll hear how neuroscience and Scripture both point to the same truth: peace in your nervous system is one of the brightest ways to bring Jesus into the room.
Because when we’re calm, we become safe people — and safe people change atmospheres.

Takeaway Quote to Share
You don’t have to avoid the dark to honor the Light — you just have to show up with calm in your body and Christ in your eyes.
☕️ Whipped Cream on Top
Go intentionally spread light today — start with a smile.
Lock eyes with one person who might not expect kindness, and give them a genuine grin that says, “You’re safe here.”
Every time you do, you’re practicing emotional safety — the same kind of nervous-system peace that changes atmospheres.
Joy is the whipped cream God puts on top of healing.
