  • Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast - Balancing Life's Demands - How to Keep First Things First, Part 2

    Setting priorities, putting first things first is important. The question is how do you keep those priorities in place? Chip explores the essential elements that must be in place in order for you to be able to keep your priorities in line over the long haul.

    The Problem: Many start well, but few finish well.

    The Answer: Biblical Accountability

    • Definition: Biblical Accountability is enlisting the support of those who love me to help me keep my commitments to God.
    • Its Power: Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

    The Need: Why accountability is essential for spiritual success

    Five Reasons:

    1. Because we never outgrow the need for PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY. -1 Corinthians 9:34-27
    2. Because past successes are no guarantee of FUTURE FAITHFULNESS. -1 Corinthians 10:1-5
    3. Because we constantly underestimate the power of our own SINFUL PASSIONS. -1 Corinthians 10:6-11
    4. Because we constantly overestimate our ability to handle TEMPTATION. -1 Corinthians 10:12
    5. Because we naively believe our struggles and temptations are UNIQUE. -1 Corinthians 10:13

    Summary: "Therefore, my beloved, flee from IDOLATRY!” -1 Corinthians 10:14

    The Means: “How to” develop accountability in relationships:

    • It begins at HOME.
    • In an atmosphere of LOVE.
    • It must be voluntary and by PERMISSION.
    • It must be SPECIFIC, not generic.
    • It must be REGULAR, not sporadic.
    • No more than 4 PEOPLE.

  • Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast - Balancing Life's Demands - How to Put First Things First, Part 2

    There are three words that can liberate you from the tyranny of the urgent. Three words that can help you regain control of your life. Three words that will reduce your stress and increase your joy. Join Chip to find out what those three words are.

    Three reasons why most of us live with two sets of priorities:

    1. We are DECEIVED. We honestly don't see the discrepancy between what we think and say, and how we actually live.
    2. We are AFRAID. Though we long to put "first things first," we simply do not believe that God will supply our needs if we give Him the first portion of our time, our lives, and our money.
    3. We have FAILED repeatedly. Our sincere and honest efforts to put "first things first" in the past lasted only a short time and ended with frustration and disillusionment with ourselves.

    So, what’s the “Missing Ingredient” to living out our priorities?

    • It's a RARELY USED word.
    • It's a FRUIT of the Spirit.
    • It comes to us by GRACE.
    • We ADMIRE it in others.
    • It's ESSENTIAL for putting "first things first."

    The Word = DISCIPLINE / SELF CONTROL

    Definition: Discipline is doing what needs to be done when it needs to be done.

    The Dynamics of Biblical Discipline Can Be Summed Up in 2 Words:

    • DELAYED GRATIFICATION - Hebrews 12:11

    The Method of Developing Biblical Discipline Can Be Summed Up in 3 Words:

    • ADVANCED DECISION-MAKING - 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

    How Does It Work?

    1. Advanced Decision Making begins with CLEAR–CUT OBJECTIVES.
    2. Advanced Decision Making is reinforced by REWARDING ALONG the WAY.
    3. Advanced Decision Making becomes a personal conviction when you PONDER the CONSEQUENCES.
