Part 17 - Join Tennison and Ginelle as they discuss some very easy ways that churches and community build their group identity around very toxic and potentially destructive things.  These usually start as a "great way to minister" to a group of people, but if gone unchecked you can begin to identity yourself as your malfunction, (who we are when we are not acting like ourselves.)

Part 16 - In this episode, Tennison and Ginelle will be talking about different ways we try to form strong group identities that are, in reality, very weak and shallow.  These group identities have missed the mark on who we should be identifying with and do not help us transform into who God has designed us to be.

Part 15 - What if Jesus was constantly creating Identity statements for His followers to grab ahold of?  What if the Sermon on Mount was one big identity statement?  How would that change how we read it? Tennison and Ginelle will discuss these questions and more in this episode.

Immanuel Journaling is a simple way to improve your awareness of God's presence and understand His goodness. The practice will build a secure attachment to God and strengthen your identity.

Living in a constant state of appreciation is crucial for our own well-being and the deepening of our relationships.

Part 14 - In every relational interaction we have, we are always asking two questions; Who are we, and How is it like my people to act?  The answers to these questions come from the group of people you belong to, and your relational experiences with those people.  These actions, responses, expressions, happen pre-consciously and reveal your character.

Part 13 - What is it?  Why is it so important? How is it formed? Did Jesus create a Group Identity? What happens when Group Identity is shallow or toxic?  These questions and more will be answered over the next several podcasts as they unpack Group Identity.

Part 12 - In this episode, we will focus on how "Sharing weakness and being vulnerable" in safe community builds Hesed.  We also introduce how narcissism directly opposes Hesed and why narcissist people are threatened by it.

Part 11 - Hesed is the relational glue that holds us together.  That glue does not apply itself to your relationships.  Building Hesed just doesn't happen on its own.  It takes intentional time and practice.  Listen in as we begin a conversation and talk through the four ways to build Hesed in your community.

Part 10 - If Hesed is lacking fear, shame, weakness, withdrawal, and performance will rule.  Join us as we conclude our conversation and answer the question, How much Hesed is in your community?
