Loneliness can be hard to navigate because there are many triggers for it. New seasons of life, new responsibilities, and new circumstances all have the potential to make us feel invisible or insignificant by uprooting what used to be familiar and comfortable. At its core, loneliness is a deep yearning to be seen, known, and loved - things that I believe every human wants. 

In this episode, I discuss practical and biblical perspectives on loneliness. Our lonely seasons do not have to be in vain, and in fact, I believe that those are the seasons in which God can do the greatest transformations inside of us.

Have you ever argued with someone you should have ignored? Clicked on a video you should have scrolled past? Allowed someone or something to live in your head rent-free? 

If so, then you understand what it feels like to give away your peace. In Isaiah 26:3, it is written that God promises to keep in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed on Him. This means that as long as our minds are on the distractions of this world, we will not experience God's perfect peace that empowers us to overcome life's challenges. Join me as I discuss what it means to protect that sacred peace!

Words are powerful and they can betray what's going on in our hearts. But sometimes, even the most heartfelt encouragement may fall on deaf ears or fail to take root in someone's spirit. As someone who has tried to be a "fixer" with my words, I've had to learn to shut up sometimes! In some ways, trying to think of the perfect speech or advice makes the situation about us rather than the people who are hurting.  

Tune in as I discuss a few ways we can support people in their time of need.

Is it possible to "outgrow" Christianity? Are people finding answers somewhere else? If you've been paying attention, you may have noticed a growing number of "exvangelicals", either on social media or in your immediate circle. Deconstruction is growing in popularity and has empowered many to publicly reject Christ - often the ironic and bitter culmination of a life shaped by Christian teachings. 

Join me as I discuss some factors contributing to the widespread criticism of Christianity and how the body of Christ should respond.

Friendships are some of the most dynamic relationships we can have! Friends have the potential to challenge us, shape us, and sometimes, they can even see more in us than we  see in ourselves. But are we willing to do what it takes to maintain lifelong friendships? To love our friends the way 1 Corinthians 13 spells out? 

In Part I of the season finale, I discuss some typical concerns within friendships and what we can do to help them withstand the passage of time and various other life challenges!

We can take comfort in the fact that God cares about our mental health. There are many Scriptures throughout the Bible that speak of our minds and the importance of guarding them and using them to glorify God. In this episode, I zero in on the concept of “taking every thought captive” (2 Corinthians 10:5). This powerful ability that Jesus has granted us through His death and resurrection allows us to assume total control over the thoughts we entertain, and in turn, act on. While this is certainly not an easy thing to do, it is possible, and that is all the hope we need.

It feels great to have the answers to our questions, solutions to our problems, and backup plans when things fall apart. But what happens when, despite our best efforts, we still come up empty? When our intellect or our planning is no longer sufficient to think through our next move? 

Uncertainty levels the playing field, so to speak, because there is not one person who always has the answers to deal with what they’re up against in life. But if WE always had answers….what would we need God for? 

The Bible tells us in Psalm 37 that the Lord orders our steps. In God’s sovereignty and omniscience, He graciously and lovingly guides us through life’s uncertainties and is faithful to call us in a direction that ultimately leads closer to Him. Uncertainty can be frightening, but it doesn’t have to be. Trust in the God who delights in guiding your steps!

If we’re going to experience the fullness of Jesus’ peace, we must invite Him into EVERY area of our lives—including on the road! Daily commutes, traffic, and reckless drivers are all part of the package. But what if it’s possible to demonstrate the love of Christ from your vehicle? What if you can leave a lasting, positive impact on a driver you will likely never see again? Usually, we think of driving as just a way to get from Point A to B, but—as we’re advised in other aspects of life—I believe it’s important to “enjoy the ride”, despite the things that have the potential to make it unenjoyable. 

The peace of Christ does not get taken away from us—we have to choose to let it go. Driving is one example of an opportunity for us to make that choice.
