There is so much stuff to catch up on after nearly a month of not podcasting. My new favorite hobby on Facebook Marketplace. I fell into a ditch. I might be a great sports dad after all. Updates on the new job, transportation, a heartfelt letter to my daughter and an upcoming trip to see the greatest band in the world, Five Iron Frenzy. Health updates since my gastric sleeve surgery & cataract surgery. The perks of being a Costco member. Podcast updates, depression updates, family updates and what I'm reading, watching and playing. Closing out with a thought about fighting a spiritual fight for the Kingdom of God rather than using the World's tools to win in the World's Kingdom.

This week, I'm feeling only 20% depressed and navigating life in a new reality—one where most of my time is spent working. After over a decade of freedom (read: depression) to pursue personal projects, adjusting to the 9-to-5 grind has been challenging. In this episode, I break down my typical week, share insights about my new job, and discuss how I strive to let my light shine for Jesus in the workplace.

It's tough for me to hold down a job when I'm not used to working. Now that depression has loosened its grip on me for the moment, I'm going to make the most of it while I can. I'll do what I can, when I can, so that when I can't, it won't be such a big deal.

Disciplines are a mixed bag. I think they've kept me from going lower than normal, but they're also the standards at which I'm failing the most.
