    E877 | Ruling Your Domain - Part 4

    We all have a kingdom. Within it, our authority isn't limited to internal thoughts, emotions, and desires—but includes our external realm where what we say goes. The problem is, chaos often comes against our attempts to order our external reality. That's because while we live in a love story, it is set in a world at war. John, Blaine, and Allen explain what the Chaos Dragon is, why C. S. Lewis believed there is no neutral ground in this world, and how boundary lines affect the reach of our rule. Show Notes: The book referenced is Addiction and Grace by Gerald May. The Bible that was quoted from is The Hebrew Bible by Robert Alter.

    In episode three of this five-part series, John, Blaine, and Allen talk about additional ways to reorder our internal world. What do our loves and emotions reveal about us?

Show Notes: The book referenced is The How of Happiness by Sonja Lyubomirsky. The C. S. Lewis essay is “The Trouble with ‘X.’” The Wild at Heart podcast with Mary Ellen Owen is “How Can You Survive Without...?” - Part 2 (Episode 846). The Emotions Wheel is available here.

    E874 | Ruling Your Domain - Part 1

    Each of us has a personal kingdom, or domain, for which we are responsible. Whether it’s our home, apartment, or dorm room, we have a place where what we say happens. What does it look like, in the midst of a chaotic world, to bring order and shalom to our realm? This new five-part series begins with John, Blaine, and Allen talking about why God made us to rule, how we’re meant to grow in this responsibility, and what role consecration and invocation play in banishing chaos from our domain. Show Notes: The books referenced are Man and Woman He Created Them: A Theology of the Body by John Paul II and Michael Waldstein and The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey.
