What is going on in our minds or emotions that we are projecting onto others around us? Is there something in your past that is trying to dictate how you interpret relationships in your present? Join us as we talk about what we're projecting, and how to overcome it. Thank you for listening.

Matt 7: 1-5 "Don’t pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults—unless, of course, you want the same treatment. That critical spirit has a way of boomeranging. It’s easy to see a smudge on your neighbor’s face and be oblivious to the ugly sneer on your own. Do you have the nerve to say, ‘Let me wash your face for you,’ when your own face is distorted by contempt? It’s this whole traveling road-show mentality all over again, playing a holier-than-thou part instead of just living your part. Wipe that ugly sneer off your own face, and you might be fit to offer a washcloth to your neighbor." (MSG)

1 Corinth 13: 11 "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me." (NIV)

Hebrews 5: 11-14 "We have much to say about this, but it is hard to make it clear to you because you no longer try to understand. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil." (NIV)

Obstacles and challenges come in every shape and size. They come at us when we are prepared, and when we aren't expecting them. How should we face these obstacles? What does the Holy Spirit and Word of God say about it? Join us this week as we talk about challenges and obstacles, and how to come out on top!

Philippians 4: 6-7 "Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life." (MSG)

Philippians 4: 4-5 "Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revel in him! Make it as clear as you can to all you meet that you’re on their side, working with them and not against them. Help them see that the Master is about to arrive. He could show up any minute!" (MSG)

In many situations through life, your foundation and identity will help determine your outcome. If your foundation is built on the Faith in Jesus, then you will be able to withstand any storm. When your identity is in God, you will be able to step into what He has for you with confidence. You can never be fully prepared for EVERY situation that life might throw at you, but you can set your heart and mind on the Word and things of God to help you prepare, and succeed through them.

Matthew 7: 24-27 "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash." (NIV)

Isaiah 54: 2 "Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes." (NIV)

What is honor? What does it mean to honor someone? In this episode we try to filter this through the Word of God. What does God say honor is and what does that look like with your family, with friends and in the work place?

Being on the same team is important, and you don't have to play the same position. This week we talk about being same-minded in your marriage. We talk about how we are striving for combined success in our marriage. Even if we have different personalities and hobbies, we are unified in our marriage. When tough times happen, we remember that we are always in this together. 

Philippians 2: 2 "then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind." (NIV)

James 4: 1-4 "What is the cause of your conflicts and quarrels with each other? Doesn’t the battle begin inside of you as you fight to have your own way and fulfill your own desires? 2You jealously want what others have so you begin to see yourself as better than others. You scheme with envy and harm  others to selfishly obtain what you crave—that’s why you quarrel and fight. And all the time you don’t obtain what you want because you won’t ask God for it! 3And if you ask, you won’t receive it for you’re asking with corrupt motives,  seeking only to fulfill your own selfish desires. 4You have become spiritual adulterers who are having an affair, an unholy relationship with the world. Don’t you know that flirting with the world’s values places you at odds with God? Whoever chooses to be the world’s friend makes himself God’s enemy!" (The Passion Translation)

Join us this episode as we talk about what types of tools you have in your arsenal, and at your disposal. Tools can be physical, mental, emotional, and especially spiritual. We need to pray, practice, train, and learn how to use these tools, and what they are best for. The tools we have can be as simple as the smart phone you own, or as complex as strategies for dealing with life's ups and downs. We can all receive guidance from the Holy Spirit on how and when to best use our tools.

1 Timothy 3: 1-5 "Here is a trustworthy saying: Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task. Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect. (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)" (NIV)
