  • Episode 144: No Complaint Department in Heaven

    Chronic complaining rewires the brain with bad, sad, mad, and powerless feelings.  This unhealthy pattern of thinking can damage the hippocampus.  The region of the brain that plays a critical role in learning, emotional responses, memory formation, and storage.  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we discuss the negative effects of complaining and show you how to fight it with the power of gratitude. Dump flabby thinking (complaining) and develop mental muscle (gratitude).

    Thoughts to Ponder:

    1. The average person complains 15-30 times a day. 
    2. Gratitude can exist alongside pain. 
    3. Gratitude takes practice. Mental muscle isn't developed overnight.

    5. Episode 143: Have You Been Duped?

      Guess what?  Jesus didn't teach Critical Race Theory.  In fact, Galatians 3: 28 says, "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." We know "social justice" sounds Christian, but have you been duped?  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we discuss the divide in our country, the fight between good and evil, and how to stand up and fight.  Jesus is the creator of justice, but He ain't woke.

      Mental Muscle:

      1. We have learned to couch our language so we don't offend, and what do we have?  A soft and soulless generation.

      2. Jesus blasted people right between the eyes with the truth.  Hello ... Pharisees. 

      3.  Don't comply with the world.  Follow the Word.

    6. Episode 142: See it, Believe it, Achieve it!

      Who are you?  That question is all about identity: the internal picture we have of ourselves.  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we discuss how identity is formed, what happens when our identity is fractured, and how to heal from the inside out.  God designed you to be complete in Him, nothing missing and nothing broken.  Change your beliefs, change your internal picture, and you will change your life.  Who are you?  A masterpiece!

      Thoughts to Ponder:

      1. What you achieve is largely a matter of what you believe.
      2. Thoughts repeated become beliefs: ideas we hold to be true (it doesn't mean they are).
      3. Change is possible, but you have to take time to discover ... who you are.

        5. Episode 140: God, Is that You?

          In a chaotic world filled with competing voices, whose voice are you listening to?  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we talk about hearing the voice of God, and yes, God does speak to His people.  In fact, He's speaking all the time, we just aren't listening. If you are confused about something, God has the answer.  He has the perfect solution to any problem you are facing.  It's time to get quiet and listen.

          5. Episode 139: Collective Effervescence … AHHH!

            Are you feeling lonely?  Did you know exercise primes your brain for stronger social connections?  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we discuss the power of movement and how it builds momentum.  Exercise releases a flood gate of feel-good chemicals that helps us tap into the deeper meaning in our life. In fact, when we exercise with other people a phenomenon called Collective Effervescence occurs.  Doesn't that sound cool?  Take your mental muscle challenge this week and ... Just Move!

                How strong are you?  The Bible uses the word strength or its derivatives over 360 times.  God has an audacious plan for your life and it's going to go unfulfilled if you don't live strong.  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we talk about the battle that is raging in our culture, and the enemy that lurks about seeking whom he may devour.  Don't get eaten alive!  Get strong ... spirit, soul, and body!

                4. May God himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole, put you together—spirit, soul, and body—and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ.  The One who called you is completely dependable.  If he said it, he'll do it!

                5. Episode 136: Living Someone Else's Dream?

                  Distractions are everywhere.  Television, personal problems, and social media can steal hours of our day, as we watch someone else's dream come true.  It's time to make your dream come true.  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we discuss how to avoid the distraction trap and how to get obsessive laser-like focus to pursue the audacious plan God has for you.  Are you feeling unproductive, aimless, and unfulfilled?  Scripture says, "Without a vision, the people cast off restraint."  They perish.  There is a vision for your life, so go discover it, and write it down. When your vision is clear there will be no room for depression, despair, or hopelessness.  It's time to live out your dream, so let's get FOCUSED!

                  5. Episode 135: Who's Controlling Who?

                    There is only one person we can control ... ourselves.  On this episode of the Soul Gym, we lay out the illusion of control and discuss how to let people go.  That controlling spirit comes from fear.  The fear of looking bad, being embarrassed, or even shunned.  We can intimidate, shame, or cry someone into submission ... for a while, but at some point, it will most likely backfire.  Come on ... who's controlling who?
