This Episode is all about self care. We must be the best us for those around us by taking care of ourselves. This is broken down into 3 categories and each are vital to be the best version of ourselves. Being the best us is one of the most important things we can do for the people we love the most. 

This Episode is all about being self aware. Sometimes we overlook what is really going on inside and react in a completely different way. One of my goals right now for myself, is to understand the way I process information, but also the way I give information based upon my emotional health. This sounds simple, but is actually really difficult. In this podcast share my heartbeat behind this and why I believe it is important in our spiritual journey. 

My husband, Jason, joined me for our last podcast of the season. You get to hear a lot of laughter, as well as how ministry and being the church has truly impacted our lives and the lives of our children. Ministry and marriage has not been easy, but it has been worth each sacrifice. I was honored for my husband to join me for this last episode and to bring out a side of me that you have yet to hear... Jason truly makes me laugh a lot and if you have met him, you know that already. You will get to hear how our personalities clash, as well as we help one another become who we were created to be for the Kingdom. Marriage and Ministry are not a divided subject in our house. 

We have the opportunity to be the best version of ourselves, but we have to make sure stay healthy and whole, not overwhelmed by being too busy. Being too busy can mean mentally or physically, but this weeks challenge is to figure out what is best for you and your family. Let's dive in together and try to find that balance for you. 

We talk about the amor that God gives us through His Word, as well as how to be prepared for battles, but what about the attitude and effort of our battles? What about the times we want to sit and sulk instead of choosing to stay in the battle and fight for something we already know our God has won? Let's choose to surrender to Jesus each battle we face, because He has won the war! 

Do you know a control freak or are you the control freak of the family? Well, I am the known control freak of my family and I have been all of my life. It has taken me time and a lot of understanding to see that God wired me in this way for a reason, but also in a way to challenge me to rely on Him more. I'm grateful for the way I have been wired and you should be too, no matter what! I'm here to help each of us understand our "control freak" side of ourselves and how to rely on Jesus more and why it is important. (Scripture references used: Romans 8:28, Mathew 6:34 and Mathew 19:26) 

Having a mentor and being a mentor is something that has been life changing for me in so many ways. The scripture really does show us that we are called to make disciples, and we can do this through mentoring, but we also are called to be mentored. This episode goes over some simple things of having a mentor and being a mentor. 

Do you ever question how the Lord can use you specifically for His glory? If so, this is one for you. There is so much the Lord has instilled in you, and I am certain that it's just all in seeing it through the Lord's eyes. Sometimes we overlook the talents the Lord has given us because they come naturally. The question is the things that come naturally to us, how can we use them for God's glory? Let's give in and seek this with Jesus guiding us. 

This episode is about how you are on your own journey and no one else’s. Personalizing our relationship with the Lord and how to fill our cups with the right things. 

The Sword of the Spirit is a gift that has been given to us to use and defeat the enemy. I love the way scripture describes and breaks down how to properly use the Sword of the Spirit and attack the enemy. This is a fierce message that will drive your relationship with Jesus to the next level.
