Everyday Strong

This is episode covers two important topics that face people who go to church. The meaning of praying in the spirit and how to stop backsliding.

Is the topic of mental health still taboo in our community? When it's time to seek help where should you start? What is the churches role in helping members in their time of need? All of these questions will be answered today by Dr. Daniels and Sheri Baker, M.S. Ed.

Dr. Daniels explains how to wait on the Lord

In this episode Dr. Daniels and CB discuss the different ways you can study the Bible. CB gives his account on the difference in reading the Bible in his 20's versus now approaching 40. Like always Dr. Daniels gives advice that will hit home to all Christians who study the good book no matter how experienced you are in your journey with Christ.

In this episode, Dr. Daniels and host CB Baker discuss the different types of fasting. There is fasting for weight loss and then there is fasting for a spiritual breakthrough. Dr. Daniels gives examples of various ways he chooses to fast during the week and the benefits from it. Getting close to God and achieving mental clarity are the reasons why you should fast periodically even if you aren't seeking a breakthrough.

Using the tools provided in this episode will be the catalyst for the breakthrough you have been looking for. Grab a pen or pencil to take notes and enjoy the show.

The biggest news at the moment was the Government shutdown by a decision not being made on the budget in Washington DC. This caused fear and somewhat panic amongst some government employees and their families due to the recent events or behaviors by politicians in the DC.
The underlying the issue exposed in this situation is we all have some type of fear when it comes to uncertainty due to lack of control. Pastor Daniels challenges us to really think about who is in control. Are you in control of what happens in your life or the government for that matter? The answer is, no. Dr. Daniels explains why in moments of uncertainty you turn the lord for peace and comfort.

Ever noticed how when you are going to better in your life or get back on track in your faith that negative things start happening. Dr. Daniels tells us how to recognize when the devil has influenced situations in our lives. The biggest lie we tell ourselves that we can handle the devil on our own and we will be able to see him coming. The truth is most of us are sitting with him right now and don't even know it. One of the signs is complaining about something you prayed for and God provided. Just think about how many times you have done that.

Sit back and take notes as Dr. Daniels gives practical advice on shaking the devil off.

This episode Dr. Daniels interviews host CB Baker about how following the principles in the Bible has affected him in business and at home. CB gives great insight on how letting God inside you give you guidance in life. Understanding that life will always have obstacles but God will give you the strength and wisdom to prevail makes things so much easier when going through a storm.

Bonus: During the conversation, the subject of the meaning of Christmas came up and the use of Santa Claus in the holiday tradition.

If you have been going to church long enough you have experienced the "Turn to your Neighbor and give them hug" request from the pastor as church service comes to a close. No one really goes over the actual etiquette of the church hug or the holy kiss. Can this church custom bring the issue of sexual harassment in church? Dr. Daniels gives his point of view as a pastor along with the what the bible says about how to handle certain adverse situations should they come up in church. Special guest, Anita Mclean, joins the podcast to provide a woman's point of view to the controversial topic.

Our beliefs shape our thoughts and the words we say to ourselves. We have the power to change our lives in an instant when what we say to ourselves match with what we believe. Dr. Daniels explains that all too often our actions are matching up with what we are saying because we didn't believe it. Your actions will always follow your beliefs. This is a major key to having fulfilled life with an abundance of joy.
