The lives we planned can be interrupted with pain and feel out of control. But God's design is flawless and His plan is to redeem our broken places and turn them into something beautiful. Listen in as Tracy Steel and I continue to discuss her book, "A Redesigned Life: Uncovering God's Purpose When Life Doesn't Go as Planned".

Is your life all you hoped it to be? When our plans for our life fail, or we find our lives filled with pain, God has not forgotten us. Listen in as Tracy Steel, author of "A Redesigned Life: Uncovering God's Purpose When Life Doesn't Go as Planned", and I discuss how God's design for our life is never out of His control or without purpose.

The thoughts we meditate on impact our lives in amazing ways. Listen in as Sarah Geringer, Author of "Transforming Your Thought Life" and I discuss ten obstacles that stand in the way of us renewing our mind.

Our mind is where the battles of this life are fought. Scripture calls us to transform our minds with the word of God yet many do not spend much time in His word. Listen in to this interview with Sarah Geringer, author of "Transforming Your Thought Life", and discover afresh how to meditate on God's precious truths and find peace of mind in the word of God.

Goals are not the harvest—souls are. Hope in the God of the harvest helps to put the harvest in perspective. He produces a harvest in our souls and the souls around us as we work toward the goals He has placed in our heart. And God prepares us to be able to handle blessings so those blessings do not become a burden. Listen in to this episode and find strength as you wait for the harvest in your life.

Waiting is hard. But the chasm between waiting and receiving is not without purpose. God is accomplishing something in the midst as we seek Him—and our heart is being prepared for what God has for us next. Listen in to this episode and be encouraged while you wait.

Do you feel like you are wandering in the wilderness as you parent your children? When we keep loving our children no matter what they do or don't do, God can use our steady love. Listen in as Judy Douglass, Author of When You Love a Prodigal: 90 Days of grace for the Wilderness, and I discuss disappointments parents can feel and how to approach each disappointment biblically.

Our expectations for life can lead us to a place of disappointment when life gets hard. Join me as my special guest, Judy Douglass, Author of When You Love a Prodigal: 90 Days of grace for the Wilderness, help us to navigate the disappointment we experience when we are in a relationship with a prodigal. There are many lessons we can learn on this road of disappointment when we walk through the disappointment with God and His precious word.

Relationships can be hard. In our pursuit of joy in this life, we often look to others to complete us and bring us joy and when they don't, we can struggle in that relationship. Unless we pursue the mind of Christ in our relationships. Misunderstandings, miscommunications, expectations. Things can get complicated quickly. Listen in and learn how the mind of Christ can change our relationships.

What are you expecting for your life? If we live long enough, we will encounter the reality of failed expectations and a sense of disappointment. But we don't have to stay there. That disappointment is an appointment that God can use to reappoint you in a new direction, with a hope in Him that never fades.
