🎧 Podcast Show Notes:

🎙️ Something to Smile About Saturday: Why Getting Even Keeps You Behind

🗓️ Episode Theme:This week’s message unpacks the common phrase, “One of these days I’m gonna get even with you,” and flips it on its head. Using a powerful story from the Cold War, we reflect on what it means to respond instead of react, and how to build a legacy that honors faith, leadership, and love.

🧠 Mindset:

Getting even may feel justified, but it’s rarely fruitful.Zig Ziglar once said:

"You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of revenge."

Instead of stooping to someone else’s level, how can we raise the standard with wisdom, grace, and generosity?

🔥 Motivation:

The story of East Berlin dumping trash into West Berlin… and how West Berlin responded with food, medicine, and clothing… shows us that the best revenge is generosity. Their note said it best:

“Each gives according to their ability to give.”

Even the Bible reminds us:

“Do not repay evil with evil... On the contrary, repay evil with blessing...” – 1 Peter 3:9“If your enemy is hungry, feed him... in doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.” – Romans 12:20

⚙️ Methodology:

Here’s your Cool Kid action plan:

✍️ Pause before payback – Ask: Is this response helpful or just hurtful?

💡 Practice "opposite energy" – Respond with kindness, class, or even a small act of service.

🙏 Pray for the person – Not out of superiority, but out of humility.

Each of us gives out of what we carry.Make sure your “dump truck” is full of faith, hope, and tacos, not trash and revenge.

🤪 Pedro’s Fun Fact:

Did you know the average child laughs 300 times a day, while adults only laugh 17 times?!Let’s flip that script, Cool Kids.

Today’s assignment:Go out there and bless someone who doesn’t expect it—especially someone who might not deserve it.

Smile. Serve. Surprise 'em.And leave a note that says, “Each gives according to their ability to give.”

✝️ Scripture References:

Romans 12:20

1 Peter 3:9

Proverbs 25:21-22

Luke 6:27-28

Matthew 5:44
