  • Maxwell Leadership Podcast - Maximize Your Joy (Part 1)

    Are you leading with joy, or just surviving? In this week's episode, John Maxwell reveals eight essential ways to maximize your joy, showing how intentional living shapes your leadership journey.

    After John's lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow unpack the practical steps you can take to apply these principles in your own leadership.

    Key takeaways:

    • Joy is found in the journey, not the destination—and it starts with living intentionally and defining your purpose.

    • Growth, daily self-improvement, and a focus on adding value to others are core ingredients for a fulfilling leadership life.

    • Surrounding yourself with a balanced team and staying in your strength zone amplifies both your personal impact and your collective results.

    Our BONUS resource for this episode is the Maximize Your Joy (Part 1) Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Joy and clicking "Download the Bonus Resource."

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - April 15th - Psalm 101:1-2
    Psalm 101:1-2
    I will sing of your love and justice, LORD. I will praise you with songs. I will be careful to live a blameless life—when will you come to help me?
    I will lead a life of integrity in my own home.
    Here, David reflects on his responsibility as king to care for the whole of society and to ensure that justice prevails. The final verse of the psalm gives us a powerful picture of his daily work “to ferret out the wicked and free the city of the Lord from their grip” (Psalm 101:8). It was no easy task, and he knew it would be impossible if he wasn’t practising justice and integrity at home. Whenever we are told that a politician’s private life is their own personal matter and of no consequence to their public duties, we know that they are talking nonsense! King David was far from perfect, but he was clear that it was vital for him to live a consistent life.
    Living a consistent life is not easy! It’s no wonder that when David proclaims his intention to be careful in living a blameless life, he asks the question: “when will you come to help me?” He knew he couldn’t do this by himself. He needed God’s inspiration and strength to live a consistent life. I don’t know what your life looks like. You will have tensions, blessings and challenges that are very different from my own, but I do know that only God can enable you to live a life of consistent integrity.
    These thoughts should spur us to pray for all those who live in the public eye. I believe we have a special responsibility to pray for our Christian brothers and sisters who bear public responsibilities and whose lives are always under the spotlight. Let’s pray they will know God’s daily renewing strength so that there is no gap between their home and public lives.
    Question
    How can you ensure that you live for God both at home and beyond?
    Prayer
    Loving Father, thank You that You are present in every part of my life, and that You give me the strength to live for You, whatever the circumstances and pressures. Amen

  • The Thriving Christian Artist - 7 Powerful Shifts That Happen When Artists Trust God to Provide

    Send us Fan Mail

    Join the Foundations Course https://www.matttommeymentoring.com/foundations 

    What would actually change if you trusted God to provide for you as an artist not just as a belief, but as a way of living? I’m talking about the moment the pressure to produce, sell, and prove yourself starts to lift, and a real, grounded peace takes its place. That shift is more than emotional relief. It’s the starting line for a new kind of creative life where God is your source and your studio, schedule, and income decisions stop being driven by fear. 

    We walk through seven tangible things that begin happening when you lean into trusting God for financial provision as a Christian creative. We unpack how striving creates guesswork and trend chasing, while trust helps you hear God’s voice and move with divine strategy that fits your unique calling. I also share personal stories from building an art business, including a painful “worst show” experience that led to a reset and a surprising commission, plus examples of divine appointments that opened doors I could never have planned through networking or marketing alone. 

    You’ll also hear how stewardship leads to multiplication from what’s already in your hand, why supernatural provision can arrive through unexpected channels, and what it means to become a river and not a reservoir with generosity and open-handed living. If you’ve been wrestling with money anxiety, burnout, or the constant feeling that you have to make it all happen, this conversation is designed to help you renew your mindset, reclaim creative freedom in Christ, and take your next step with confidence. 

    If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs peace around provision, and leave a review so more artists can find it. What’s one area where you’ve been striving instead of trusting?

    Human beings are made in the image of God, so we should be first, right? The first are usually the most important. Why would God make us after all the animals and plants? Kaitlyn explains the theology behind Adam and Even being made after the Garden of Eden.
