Each day has enough trouble and stress. Jesus told us this much. However, the problem is not always the problem. Our response is. When we worry about the past, we get depressed. When we worry about the future, we get anxious. Don't just accept this. It is not healthy for your soul. It is worth the daily fight to monitor your soul and keep your emotions in check.

We have all experienced what it’s like to be overwhelmed or discouraged. It’s not fun, but we have a choice of whether we stay in that state or not. There are always reasons for why it happens, but the remedy is more important than the reasons. The remedy is hope. Hope controls fear. Hope casts out despair. The soul is healthy when hope is present.

We are called to love others. Jesus demonstrated this. It is one of the main markers of a true believer. It is easy to talk and think about loving others, but the fruit is measured by action. This is where the rubber meets the road. In this episode, we look at what true kindness is—that giving ourselves to others doesn’t obligate them to us. It is a sacrifice to God. 

If you want a better life, you had better guard your thoughts. What you think determines how you feel and influences what you do. While many outside elements can influence your thoughts, you are the only one who is responsible for them. Only you can choose and change what it is that you are dwelling on.

We live in a world full of physical supply chain issues. However, what if we capitalized on the truth that there are no spiritual supply chain issues? It simply comes down to whether or not we invite Him into our lives. In this episode, we talk about what the Spirit supplies. When you find yourself in a tough situation, it is possible to keep confidence and joy if you remain connected to Him. 

Jesus introduces and presents some of the roles of the Holy Spirit (comforter, counselor, helper, intercessor, advocate, strengthener, standby). Each of these names points towards personal, inward help. In this episode, we dive into this, looking at the 4 different, sequentially linked levels of His work in us—Spirit-born, Spirit-filled, Spirit-led, and Spirit-formed.

You can be a child of God and still do what the flesh wants. This is because of your old sinful nature. You can’t train that away—you have to defeat it. The only way you can do so is with the help of the Holy Spirit. Just like a big brother defends his younger brother, the Spirit is there to help you beat the bully that you can’t dominate on your own.
