- Ep. 117 | What's Next For The Podcast
In case you missed it, this episode is releasing on Wednesday instead of Tuesday.
That's because there are a few changes that will be taking place on the podcast. In today's episode I'm going to share with you the shift that is taking place for the podcast and also talk about my process for listening to God's voice and His guidance.
God has put everything in place for you to succeed in your life purpose. The purpose of life is not just trying to survive but to live a life that brings glory to his kingdom and is attractively different.
Key Takeaways:
- God will lead us through the desires of our hearts. I had a desire to start a podcast well before I started a podcast.
- Buying back your time will allow you to break free from this system of survival and strife.

21 min - Ep. 116 | How To View Conflict So You'll Want To Address It
We all have conflict in our life and we all respond to it differently.
There are a lot of people who want to avoid conflict and will do anything to get it resolved or set it aside. However, when you don't address conflict the way that you should it actually magnifies the conflict and makes it worse.
In today's episode we're going to discuss why you should address conflict and how you can view it differently so that you'll want to make sure that it gets resolved. You will invariably encourage what you tolerate. It can feel like an inconvenience or time consuming to address conflict appropriately but in all cases, when you push it off or avoid addressing conflict, then the situation will always get worse.
Addressing conflict is so imporant because overcoming these obstacles are key to becoming the person that you need to become. God has put everything in place for you to succeed in your life purpose. The purpose of life is not just trying to survive but to live a life that brings glory to his kingdom and is attractively different.
Key Takeaways:
- When you don't address conflict you're teaching people how to treat you. When you want to be treated differently then you have to start teaching people differently.
- Just like indicator lights in your car …conflicts are simply indicators that something needs to be addressed.
- We think avoiding conflict will help not feel negative feelings that come with it, but it still feels awful to hold the resentment, bitterness, and annoyance that builds when conflict is not addressed.
- You want things to change … but should anything really be different if you've trained a person to respond in a certain way?

20 min - Ep. 115 | How To Know If You're Operating From A Victim Mentality
Nobody wants for failure to be their fault. It's easier to place blame on someone or something else. Failing to take responsibility for your life will keep you stuck and prevent you from fulfilling the purpose that God has created for you.
I know that the person that you want to be is someone who takes responbility and not operate out of a victim mentality. You desire to be a person who can look at their beliefs and determine if they are helping you in becoming the person that you need to become.
In today's episode we talk about how you know if you're operate in a victim mentality. Operating from a victim mentality prevents you from growing because an essential part of growth is owning your beliefs and actions. Yet the reality is that it is very comforting to operate from a victim mindset. It is a protection mechanism that allows to avoid feeling the feelings that you've determined as negative or bad.
Remember, God has put everything in place for you to succeed in your life purpose. The purpose of life is not just trying to survive but to live a life that brings glory to his kingdom and is attractively different…and as you'll see today, this starts with having an attitude of excellence with what may feel like a "small assignment.
Key Takeaways:
- Being around a person who fails to take responbility is draining emotionally and we subconsciouly start to move away from that person emotionally and physically.
- Your circumstances are a result of your belief system
- When you're operating from a victim mentality the focus is always externally and you never questioning your thoughts and beliefs to see how they're contributing to the circumstance.
- Taking offense is an indicator that you're operating in a victim mentality.

- Ep. 112 | Taking Offense Will Block Your Purpose
Show description:
What would you say if I told you that there was point in Jesus' ministry where he could not do what he wanted to do?
In today's episode we're going to talk about offense, and how offense will stop or negate the work that God wants to do in your life. When Jesus was ministering in his home town the people in his town took offense at him, and the Bible says that Jesus COULD NOT do a miracle because of their offense.
This word used in the passage is the Greek word Skandalizo, which means to create a stumbling block. You can also see this is where we get our English word scandal or scandalous. Let's dive into this concept and get really curious about how offense might be blocking you from receiving something from God.
God has put everything in place for you to succeed in your life purpose. The purpose of life is not just trying to survive but to live a life that brings glory to his kingdom and is attractively different…and as you'll see today, this starts with having an attitude of excellence with what may feel like a "small assignment.
Key Takeaways:
- Offense creates a stumbling block that prevents us from putting trust in someone.
- This same word is used in the parable of the sower when the heat comes and we fall away
- Religion is at the root of the places where we take offense and it blocks the kingdom from operating.
- What is offense blocking in your life?

18 min - Ep. 111 | Your Plan B is really your plan
Burn the ships!
I would assume that you are familiar with the story of where this saying originated. It comes from 1519 during the Spanish conquest of Mexico, when Hernán Cortés the Spanish commander, burned his ships so that his men would have to conquer or die. Basically, he created a point of no return for himself and his men.
In today's episode I want to talk about how the idea of having a plan B sounds both wise and safe but it actually prevents us from fulfilling the purpose that God has put in our lives. The reality is that our plan is really the plan, and your brain thinks that it is protecting you by having a plan "B".
God has put everything in place for you to succeed in your life purpose. The purpose of life is not just trying to survive but to live a life that brings glory to his kingdom and is attractively different…and as you'll see today, this starts with having an attitude of excellence with what may feel like a "small assignment.
Key Takeaways:
- Your brain will follow the plan "B" because that is where you have placed your confidence.
- Plan "B"s are normally in contradiction to what we're called to do in faith
- Get really curious about your plan "B" ... what does it tell you about your beliefs?

29 min - Ep. 108| How To Qualify For Your God-Given Assignment and Purpose
Show description:
Success is a lot of small decisions that God is gradually directing you toward your destiny. Therefore, God wants to continually posture us and move us toward our assignment but we'll only be postured in such a way if we allow ourselves to be.
In today's episode, we talk about the prerequisites that need to be in place for you to step into your God-given assignment. Luke 16:11 says, "So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?" This indicates that the first step to walking out our spiritual assignment there's a faithfulness that needs to be proven in the natural realm.
God has put everything in place for you to succeed in your life purpose. The purpose of life is not just trying to survive but to live a life that brings glory to his kingdom and is attractively different…and as you'll see today, this starts with having an attitude of excellence with what may feel like a "small assignment.
Key Takeaways:
- You cannot move toward something that you cannot imagine.
- Your desires will either drag you into greater purpose or dead ends in life.
- There is a testing period in the natural the precedes walking in the spiritual
- The trials we face are proving out faith and creating a persistent, consistent, endurance.
