How are you starting your morning? Are you beginning by talking to God and immersing yourself in His word?
 

In this episode, Jeff, Jeff, and Fred discuss: 

• Meeting God in the periods of darkness in your life.
• Seeing God’s grace in life’s serendipity.
• Surround yourself with great men and women of God.
• Healing for stronger relationships.
• Finding fulfillment at the intersection of passion, experience, and gifting.

Key Takeaways: 

• You can give your life to Christ, but don’t forget about also needing sanctification. Make sure to prioritize your life with the things that matter most.
• Remember the things that went well, but also remember what didn’t work and strive not to do those things again.
• Give your kids responsibility. Learning to work is a valuable skill and a critical part of growing up.
• Start your day with God. It is easier to play the game when you know what the ultimate goal is.
