| EP 34: How Cynicism Blocks Mind Renewal | 23 oct. 2025 | 00:08:54 | |
The temptation to become cynical can creep in almost unnoticed. It can sound like, oh, I've heard that before. Or that might work for others, but not for me. Or yeah, I tried that. It didn't. It didn't work. It doesn't work for me. But here's the thing. Cynicism does not protect us. It poisons us. It keeps our hearts closed and our minds stuck.

| Ep 29: The Greek Heart | 18 sept. 2025 | 00:17:08 | |

And again, we're going to see that the biblical picture of the heart goes way beyond our modern idea of just follow your feelings.

| Ep 28: The Hebrew Heart | 11 sept. 2025 | 00:11:00 | |
Today we are starting a three part series about one of the most important words in the entire Bible the Heart. Did you know that the word heart shows up almost 1000 times in Scripture? That tells me God really wants us to understand it. The Hebrew word for heart is so much richer, deeper, and more powerful than we might understand. It describes not just your emotions, but your mind, your choices, the decisions that you make. And this is really like your will, those desires, your inner self. It's like the very control center of your whole life. š Ready to go deeper? | |||

This eppisode builds on the plumb-line idea and talks about how to actually live out that code.Ā Because here's the truth.Ā It's just one thing to write down your values, but it's a whole other thing to walk them out, especially when life gets hard, okay?Ā And the only way to truly walk in alignment is by renewing your mind with the Word of God, transforming those subconscious automated beliefs with truth.Ā So, I'll share a little bit of my own healing journey from trauma, suicidal ideation, and a poverty mindset and how I use scripture, prayer, and coaching tools to experience real, lasting transformation.Ā š Ready to go deeper? | |||

Have you ever been in one of those moments where something happens and you are like, I have no idea how to make the right decision in this moment?Ā Or, maybe it's "what do I stand for when the world around me seems so divided?"Ā So, today we're going to explore what it looks like to live by the plumb line of scripture.Ā š Ready to go deeper? | |||
