Dogs start wagging their tails with delight before they receive a treat. They are great teachers of the “wag first and fun follows” approach to living. Every great spiritual teacher throughout history encourages us to do the same: Start giving thanks for what we hope to receive, and trust that God is working on it now. On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to do this by thanking in advance. Dog-loving Cathie Quinn gets our tails wagging with today’s Daily Word®, “Free.”

Every event in our day is a ceremony that we preside over. By the time we arrive, the stage has been set and it corresponds with what we’ve been preparing for mentally.

With an expectant attitude, success follows us everywhere we go! We truly live it up when we live with the expectation that God is arranging everything on our behalf.

Unity minister David McClure launches us into our greater good with today’s Daily Word®, “New Year.”

Our limited ideas about ourselves keep us tied up. When we set out to accomplish something, old thoughts insist that we cannot be successful, and things become much harder than they need to be.

On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to remember that our desires are not difficult to achieve; it’s only our habits of thought that get in the way. Encouraging Catherine Powell sets us free to be all we can be with today’s Daily Word®, “Let Go, Let God.”

Life’s an inside job. Avoid the temptation to internalize upsetting words and behaviors of anyone else. Just let them have it.

On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to keep their eyes on their hearts’ desires and overlook the static. Artist Krista Machovina really lets them have it with today’s Daily Word®, “Pray for Others.”

The idea of enticing a stubborn donkey to move forward by dangling a carrot in front of it can be used to transform our lives. We can dangle our own carrot by imagining the experiences we would love to have in each upcoming event throughout our day.

“In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” It’s time to break away from contemplating all the news, hearsay, and gossip.

By doing so, you will remain unscathed and prosper, in spite of what the bad news bears are yapping about. On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to break away from tribulating and start celebrating life. The insightful Rev. Tom Thorpe keeps us tribulation free with today’s Daily Word®, “Hope and Faith.”

It’s made abundantly clear throughout the Bible and other sacred texts that we have a covenant, a divine contract, with God. In it we are promised unlimited health, happiness, love, success, prosperity, and money. When our thoughts are in alignment with these affirmative promises, we’re keeping up our end of the contract, and we continuously receive as promised. Any thinking to the contrary is not in our contract and interrupts the flow of our good. On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to accept their divine inheritance now by remembering all the perks in their contract. Soul sister Christina Robohm joins us to read and discuss the fine print in today’s Daily Word®, “Zest.”
