New year, same old faithful Spiritual Life Team! If you're like most people, you've probably set some "New Year's Resolutions" or personal goals (or may have even already failed them...😬) But not all goals are healthy, and if you're not careful, you could lose interest, give up, or even end up burned out and more discouraged than when you started! So what kind of goals can we set for ourselves that not only have the best chance for success, but will help us grow closer to God and become more like Jesus along the way? Join the conversation and find out!

**WARNING: If You Have Young Kids, You May Want To Make Sure They Are Not Listening To This Episode With You!** Merry Christmas, Liberty families! In this special episode of the SLT Podcast, we are covering a very hot topic in the modern, Christian household... Can or should Christian families celebrate Santa Claus? Please note that we are not telling anyone what they should do, but simply exploring and unpacking a topic in a way that we hope can better equip our families to lead a Christ-centered life, and not end up at any extreme (or divisive) viewpoint!

Merry Christmas, y'all! Did you know Jesus wasn't actually born on December 25th?? Start your break with a joyful conversation with the Spiritual Life Team about some of the biggest Christmas traditions that our culture celebrates– where did we get them from, and if they're not centered around Jesus, is it okay for Christians to participate in them? Join us as we take a look at the origins of lights, presents, and even Christmas trees, and how we can make everything all about Christ (and have fun while we're at it!)

Welcome to the second half of our conversation on "Redefining Success!" Now that we understand the world's vs. the Bible's definitions of success, and some of the serious, negative consequences of emphasizing accomplishments rather than Christlike character in our kids, it's time to get on the solution side! What can we do as parents and teachers to re-focus the way we're pushing our students, and make sure it's leading them towards Kingdom glory rather than empty achievements? Listen in and find out!

In the first half of this two-part episode, the Spiritual Life Team discusses an issue that is prevalent in the world, and even present at Liberty; the praise and over-emphasis of accomplishments and awards as the main measure of "success" for our students and children. What does the Bible say about how we should measure success in life, and how can we be pushing or encouraging our children to strive for excellence in a healthy way that doesn't negatively effect their sense of value and worth? Let's dive in and start the conversation!

In this episode of the SLT Podcast, we address the difficult topic of doubt. Listen in on what we are doing to create a culture at Liberty where our students know it is a "safe place to struggle" with their faith, as long as they know where and how to get help. We are also joined by our President and Head of School, Dr. Blair McCullough, who shares how Liberty is collaborating with and learning from other Christian Schools on how they're developing cultures centered on Christ, and what our families can do to partner with us at home.

So much of our success-driven culture can lead us down an unhealthy road towards becoming stressed, overworked, and burnt out. God has placed a huge emphasis on the need for us to rest, even since the very beginning of time! But to develop a culture that bases success by God's standards rather than those of the world, we must learn to rest the way that God intends for us, which may be more than just power naps or weekends off. How can you start creating patterns of healthy, biblical rest for your spirit in your family? Find out in this episode of the SLT Podcast!
