Walk Me Through This Samantha Spittle

In this episode of Walk Me Through This, Don and Samantha talk about "Long-Gaming." Part 1 gets into the "Messy Middle," which is the area somewhere between "Once Upon A Time" and "Happily Ever After."

In Part 2 of "Long Gaming," Samantha and Don talk about how God is the ultimate "long-gamer." God is the great "I Am," and He is "who was, and is, and is to come."

In Part 3, Don and Samantha discuss purpose and perspective. Long-gaming relies on these two key things, so we should all aim to have the "purpose" mentality, which means that we need to gain perspective on life's journey.

Samantha and Don discuss what it really means to be a Christian in Part 4. Part of long-gaming involves understanding that we all have our crosses to bear in life and if we are to be "like Jesus" in all ways, we are going to go through some hard times. The hands and feet of Jesus involve the messy parts of life, but sometimes we only want the "happy" parts of Jesus.

In the conclusion of their discussion about "Long-Gaming," Samantha and Don talk about what it means to keep running to Christ. The long-game mentality for any hard situation can be, "let me get through the next 2 minutes," then, "let me get through the next 2 hours," then, "let me get through the next 2 days," and so on. This is a great strategy to learn how to long-game ANYTHING.

Samantha and Don sit down to discuss the year 2020. The first part talks about what the word "Apocalypse" means, and how we all have our own apocalyptic moments in our lives.
