In today’s episode Chris provides encouragement for men who are going through divorce as we begin to enter the holiday season. For many of us, this might be the first holiday season we are spending alone, away from our former wife. You can get through this, but you must put the effort into planning to ensure you don’t make poor decisions during this difficult time.

Divorce is a confusing time where we are asking to make decisions when we are not at the top of our game. If you ever asked yourself "where did that thought come from?," the answer may surprise you. Today Chris discusses the three voices we might hear in our head while recoverying from divorce and how to make the best decisions possible.

Bible Passage: 2 Corinthians 11:14 "And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light."

Today Chris dives into the work we need to put into our divorce recovery program. He will also discuss the way recoverying from divorce is similar to a 12 Step Program, and what we need to do to ensure we are drawing closer to God during this difficult time.

Bible Passage Inspiration: James 2: 14-24. "What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister has nothing to wear and has no food foer the day, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, keep warm, and east well," but you do not give them the necesssities of the body, what good is it? So also faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead. Indeed someone might say, You have faith and I have works." Demonstrate your faith to me without works, and I will demonstrate my faith to you from my works. You believe that God is one. You do well. Even the demons believe that and tremble. Do you want proof, you ignoramus, that faith without works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar? You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by the works. Thus the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness," and he was called "the friend of God." See how a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.

In a well known passage from the gospel of Mark, we learn about a time that Jesus was crossing the Sea of Galilee with his disciples and a storm broke out. Jesus awoke from his slumber to calm the storm. Today Chris discusses what we can take from this as men who are recovering from divorce.

Bible Passage Inspiration: Mk 4:35-41 “On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” And leaving the crowd, they took him with them, just as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him. And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care if we perish?” And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?” And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?”

PART TWO OF INTERVIEW

What does it mean to be a man on purpose? What does it mean to us, as men, when the Bible says we are a priest, profit, and king? How have women changed over the years and what does that mean for our role as men? Today we welcome Dave Johnson, author, former pastor, and corrections officer, who will share his years of wisdom and personal experience with us. 


Bible Passage Inspiration: 2 Corinthians 1: 3-4 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and God of all encouragement, who encourages us in our every affliction, so that we may be able to encourage those who are in any affliction with the encouragement with which we ourselves are encouraged by God.”
