Meditations with pace, rhythm, and cadence can strengthen the practice of mindfulness. Words or phrases that help one to be in the moment rather than in the future lead to the best practice in mindfulness. Find passages to coincide with your circumstances such as:

• Meditations of inner serenity; 
• Meditations of personal or spiritual growth;
• Meditations of community. 

Mindfulness is a fundamental practice to let good dwell in one’s heart and soul. Passages in this podcast include Psalms 27 and 46; Zephaniah 3:17; Colosians 2:5-7; and Matthew 25:40.

A perfect way to practice mindfulness is during seasons like Lent, Easter, Advent, Christmas or any other spiritual holy day or season. Jesus asked his followers to keep watch (vigil) with him on the night he was betrayed. His birth found shepherds keeping watch over their sheep at night. Keeping watch opens us up to new spiritual experiences. Passages include Mark 14:32-42.

What is a mentor? How can I find one? How can I be a good one? A mentor in the basic sense is a role model in some area of life: work, family, spirituality, and so on. Become acquainted with the mentoring relationship of Paul and Timothy found in the Bible. Mentees are inclined to imitate a mentor. It's the reason they may have chosen that person as a mentor. A mentor is looking for someone who is striving to grow.

Some people feel isolated at work because the system has come off the rails. It has become a place where a person doesn’t feel supported, doesn't  feel credit is given for the work done. Exhaustion is the rule of the daily grind.

COVID has probably put the spotlight on what was already the case. How are we to approach the Great Resignation of 2021?

We think about how we can find joy in our work. We are trying to find the answer to “What is my spot on the team?” Scriptures include Genesis 1:28, Ecclesiastes 2:24-25, 3:22 and 4:8-10, and Ephesians 4:28.

Making amends is defined and compared with merely asking for forgiveness. Recovery groups and counselors, religions and sacred writings all speak to how people make things right with those they’ve hurt or used. An alternative to amends, forgetting, is addressed. Forgetting can help us find our way to the light. Scriptures considered include Luke 19:7-9, Matthew 5:23–24, and Luke 6:31.

How can I be aware of the presence of God day by day? I’m placing guiding markers: Love and Faith and Hope. Every day we come to a moment when we act on the most important thing that needs to happen today. That is to connect with God. We experience God when we put a priority on his presence and imitate his nature of love.

How can I recognize when someone is abusing me? How can I make a good decision on spiritual teachers? A toxic teacher puts forward novel or elitist ideas that reflect their broken character rather than the inspired Word of God. Toxic teachers eventually become focused on gaining (& controlling) followers. The warning signs of toxicity are discussed along with traits that make followers vulnerable to toxic teachers. Paul’s letters to Timothy are the primary resource in this podcast.
