If your life never changed, would you be okay with it?

It’s a question most of us don’t slow down long enough to ask. We spend so much time chasing what’s missing, fixing what’s broken, or obsessing over the few things that aren’t going right—while quietly overlooking everything that already is.

This episode is an invitation to pause and take inventory. Not of what you wish was different, but of what’s actually good right now. The steady relationships. The routines that work. The blessings we’ve normalized. If nothing changed tomorrow, would the life you’re living today still be enough? And if not—what does that reveal about where your focus has been?

Sometimes peace doesn’t come from change… it comes from learning to see clearly.

Growing up, one of my favorite baseball players was Steve Avery, a dominant pitcher for the Atlanta Braves. Before injuries changed his career, he was electric—one of the best on the mound. Recently, watching old clips of his playing days stirred a deeper thought in me.

All of us, at some point, have been hurt. Wounded. Spiritually injured. And the dangerous story we tell ourselves is this: I used to be good before I got hurt. This episode is a reminder not to live in that sentence. You are not defined by the injury. You are not finished because you fell. Healing is possible. Growth is still ahead. Get back up. Recover. And don’t let it be said that the best of you only existed before the pain.

The first episode in February. I am feeling good about the podcast so far in 2026. Please share with someone that may need or enjoy these episodes.

Everyone should have a file on God. A physical files of all the miracles He has preformed for you. It would help us in times of doubting and to always remember all thatn Jesus has done for us.

Found out that collectibles really aren't considered collateral. Kinda hurt my feelings.

I recently read a quote that said " Being rich is based on numbers. Feeling rich is based on how rich your neighbor is."

Because if you don’t plan your day, your day will happily plan you—and it’s usually terrible at it.

Here’s the real, human reason planning before the day starts matters:

1. You wake up with intention instead of reaction
Without a plan, the first email, text, or problem becomes your boss. Planning ahead lets you decide what matters before the noise shows up.

2. Your brain works better when it knows the destination
Unplanned days feel heavy because your mind is constantly asking, “What should I be doing right now?” A simple plan removes that mental friction and frees up energy.

3. You protect your best hours
You only get a few high-focus hours a day. Planning lets you spend them on what moves the needle—not on whatever happens to yell the loudest.

4. It reduces stress more than it creates discipline
Most stress comes from forgotten tasks and half-finished thoughts. Writing them down the night before lets your brain rest instead of rehearsing.

5. You end the day with progress, not just motion
Busy feels productive—but it isn’t. Planning helps you measure the day by what mattered, not just how tired you are.

6. It gives you margin for the unexpected
Ironically, planned days handle interruptions better. When something goes sideways, you know exactly what you’re choosing to delay.

If you want it super simple, try this tonight:

• Write 3 things that would make tomorrow a win

• Decide when you’ll do them

• That’s it

You don’t need a perfect plan—just a starting line.

We lost a wonderful Christian man this week from my home church. Just a few thoughts of Bro. Mike Lang

There’s a strange relief in knowing you’re not the final decision-maker. When you’re the middleman, you carry conversations, pass along details, and try not to waste anyone’s time—yet somehow, time still slips away. Sales calls turn into relay races. Questions get filtered. Answers get delayed. And you start to wonder if being helpful sometimes means stepping out of the way.

In this episode, I talk about the awkward space of being the go-between—the tension of wanting to be respectful of everyone’s time while knowing you don’t actually hold the “yes” or the “no.” It’s a reflection on clarity, responsibility, and the freedom that comes from putting people directly in front of the decision-maker. Sometimes the most honest thing you can do isn’t to negotiate or explain… it’s to connect and let go.

We all know what it feels like to coast—letting momentum carry us instead of intentionally steering. In this episode, a childhood game of cutting the engine on a straightaway becomes a sobering metaphor for life and faith. Coasting feels safe… until the road curves. A reflection on the hidden danger of drifting spiritually and the quiet power of re-engaging our walk with Christ.
