In this episode, Jay walks us through the story of David in 2 Samuel. There are lessons we can learn from David’s failure of understanding his temptation. Remember, you are not your temptations but the values you embrace.

Episode notes: 

• Whatever we misdiagnose we mistreat.
• Temptation is a need wanting to be met.
• We are not the temptations we have. We are the values we embrace.
• Meet your needs in a healthy way.
• One of the best ways to deal with emotional and mental fatigue is fun.
• Spirit needs: Communion with God, worship, hope
• Soul needs: Connection with other people, positive self-talk, truth
• Body needs: Food, water, sleep, exercise
• In different seasons we have different needs
• Self-awareness leads to helpful adjustments
• Self-awareness comes from stewardship and ownership.
• How am I doing? What are my needs? What do I need?

2 Samuel

Banning Liebscher is the founding pastor of Jesus Culture, a ministry of worship, events, and leadership development. In this episode, Banning and Jay talk about Banning’s latest book, The Three-Mile Walk: The Courage You Need to Live the Life God Wants for You, and the battles men are facing today.
 
- The older I get the less I’m driven by vision and more driven by obedience
- “My job isn’t to keep you safe, my job is to bring you home rich.”
- We are all called to be someone. We are also all called to do something.
- Responsibility gives us purpose.
- You have to get around healthy men.
- Stop feeling sorry for yourself because you have problems. You are a leader. Leaders are made to solve problems.
- We were born for hard times.
- God has a dream and wraps a man around it. - Lou Engel
- You will never be able to set life on cruise control.
- The valley of the shadow of death is the red carpet to our destiny.
- One of God's hopes for us is to take the place where we are weary, broken, and afraid and restore that and send us back into battle.
- The greatest intimidation to your enemy is that you’re staring him in the face while you are eating.

What is an addiction? In this episode, Jason breaks down what addictions are and where they come from. If you find yourself in never-ending cycles, this is a great place to start.

• Addiction is more about the cage you live in than the substance you take.
• Addiction starts when we can no longer bear being present in our own lives.
• Addiction is a way of meeting our needs in an unhealthy way.
• Our addiction is our attempt to get control over what we don’t have control over.
• Your story may not be your fault but it is your responsibility. 
• Without boundaries or needs, there is no way to actually care for yourself. 
• Boundaries are set so others know how to care for you.
