A Road Map for Life
Episode 637Along the road of life, we all pick up some baggage. But how do you keep the ghosts of your past from showing up in your future?
When we look back on regretful situations, we tend to rework the narratives in our minds to justify our decisions. This natural progression of internal thinking has made the easiest person to deceive the person in the mirror. So how can we avoid making decisions that lead to regret?
Decisions lead to choices, choices lead to responses, and responses lead to permanent marks in the story of your life. What story do you want to tell?
We all experience those “red-flag moments” when something doesn’t sit quite right within us. The longer we ponder the decision we are about to make, an internal tension grows. Are you paying attention to that tension?
Our natural inclination is to live as close to the line as possible, often attempting to get away with as much as we can without facing the consequences. This is a slippery slope, so what can we ask ourselves to step away from the edge?
Our decisions can impact more than just ourselves; that is probably why we say, “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” But in a world full of deceptive voices, how can we lay a foundation for these types of mutually beneficial relationships?
Parenting in the 21st Century
Episode 643Most parents want what’s best for their children, but sometimes it comes at the expense of their children. So what’s the secret to great parenting?
When it comes to repairing broken relationships, no one responds well to being convinced, coerced, convicted, or controlled. But if these approaches don’t work, how else can we fix the broken relationships in our lives?
When someone wrongs us it’s tempting to want revenge. But in order to repair a relationship, we must fight the urge to get back AT and instead be proactive in getting back TO the other person.
It’s easy to play the blame game when our relationships need fixing, but how often does it get the job done?
The decision to repair a broken relationship is extraordinarily important, and someone has to make the first move. It’s rarely convenient, but the payoff is great.
When it comes to potentially polarizing topics, our posture, tone, and approach will tell others what’s most important to us.

Episode 703Newer and shinier can seem better, but what do you do when you're no longer content with what you wear, what you drive, or where you live?
We’ve all heard the saying “actions speak louder than words.” But did you know that even our actions rarely tell the whole story? It’s our reactions that do... so what do your reactions say about you?
Our actions speak louder than words, but our reactions speak louder than both. They reveal what’s really going on under the surface and reflect our fears, values, and even our faith.
Our reactions speak loudly, so loud that people take notice. Which means our reactions are an opportunity for influence, and Jesus shows us how to use that influence for good.
Let’s face it: some people can rub us the wrong way. But would we see them differently if we first took a look at ourselves?
