Have you ever asked yourself, or God, What’s next? Maybe you feel like your stuck and there is no movement or progress in your life currently or maybe you have had personal circumstances that have flipped your life upside down, leaving you anxious and depressed about your next steps in life.  We know just how hard it is to live in the “now”, waiting on the “not yet”.

In #episode 50 we have a casual conversation about being in this place and offer encouragement to those wondering, well, What’s Next?!.

Book Resource: What Now by Hannah Duggan

On this Junto Podcast special, my brother joins me as he recounts a near death experience he had in 1995 and the challenges he has faced in life ever since.  While he has made dramatic strides, he still faces challenges today as a result of the trauma.  

Have you faced something traumatic in your life and if so, what did you do to move forward?

🚨 Have you thought about the amount  of TRAUMATIC content you take in on a daily or weekly basis?  

What about what your kids are exposed to? 

Studies show that being exposed to large amounts of information can cause apathy and when it comes to content that is traumatic, it can allow us to become desensitized and  unempathetic to serious situations. 

On #Episode 49 we start the conversation of being “Exposed & Desensitized” and reiterate the importance of not allowing ourselves to grow cold or accustomed to things that should, for all intents and purposes, make us uncomfortable.

Join us for part 1 of “Bible Words Explained” as we take an in depth look at some Bible words and unpack their meaning over conversation.  Often times the meaning or context of Bible terms are overlooked or under explored but with Scripture, there is always something new to discover.  Even Bible words that we might be familiar with have something new to teach us.  In part 1 of Bible Words Explained, we take a closer look at:

- Grace: God’s undeserved favor/love toward man.

1 in 5 people will experience clinical depression at some point in their life. 1 in 5! (Source AACC)

If this were an epidemic that could be solved with money, fame, or influence, many of the actors, singers, and entertainers we have grown to love would still be with us today and more importantly, they would be here living the “abundant” life and enjoying the fruits of their labors.  

If there is no hope for the rich, famous, & influential, what hope could there possibly be for us?  

I have to say that I was impacted by Twitch’s passing recently. Not because I was a big fan per se, or that I followed his career, but because I would have never seen that coming from him based on his content.  In fact, the video posted 2 days prior to his suicide on his #tiktok showed a happy, talented, influential man who was living his best life.  

On #Episode 46 we talk about the importance of being a “gatekeeper” to the friends and family in our care.  Depression, anxiety, & suicide still plague us, even as believers, but we know that the “abundant” life can be found in Christ and that hope doesn’t exist in money, fame, or influence, but Hope is a person, and His name is Jesus.  Jesus tells all who are weary and worn out to come to Him and He will give us rest.

What were you doing when the world shut down?  What were your initial thoughts, or better yet, what were your initial emotions when you first heard of Covid?  In Episode 44 we reflect on the surreal time of the Covid-19 quarantine and how it is still affecting us today.

 The covid quarantine experiment exposed and confirmed the state of people’s mental health, as a whole, and reaffirmed the importance of relationships and being in community.  It exposed and answered the question for many businesses of “can a work at home model be successful?”  It exposed the resilience of people and the importance of faith in a higher power, namely God (Jehova). 

So much has changed that will never return to the way it was pre-covid, but regardless of how you view covid-19 or the pandemic, it is clear that we are living in a new world.  We are living the Post Pan Life.

What is something that you learned about yourself, or the world during quarantine?

March 21, 1998, was a big day in my life…A young 20 year old on the brink of manhood.  Certainly, I still looked like a boy, and probably still felt like one too.  This was the day that I would meet my wife…Yeah, I knew her, and we had, up to this point, had previous encounters, but we were both too young before.  

On Episode 43 Heather and I share briefly about this encounter that changed both of our lives and deliver 20 marriage hacks, 1 for each year that we’ve been married, in hopes that these tid bits of what we’ve learned over the years might be a help or encouragement to someone else.  If nothing else, I think you’ll get a good laugh out of this episode.  Some of the “hacks” include things like;

•  “Forgiveness Is Key”

I think you get the idea.  It is hard to do anything for 20 years, much less maintain a relationship with someone, but, by the Grace of God, we have made it to this point.  

What is a marriage hack that you would share?  Please join the conversation and comment your thoughts and visit us at:
