    The Victorious Life

    The Victorious Life

    I'm glad to be back recording podcasts again. Thank you to my wife who has encouraged me to keep going. 
     
    Walk with me as I talk about a book called How to Live the Victorious Life by an Unknown Christian and how it has impacted my life. Listen as I talk about my pride and how an unwillingness to die to myself has prevented me from stepping into the promises God has for me.

    Preparing for Life

    Preparing for Life

    It took me a long time in life to recognize when to fight my battles, and it is not in the moment but long before that in the preparation. I would much rather fight battles around spiritual, physical and emotional disciplines than fight battles in the moment by trying to say the right thing, not respond selfishly, and not throw in the towel and relapse. Walk with me as I explore the progress I have made and still need to make in preparing for life.

    Dangers of External Validation

    After the last episode on fear versus authenticity, it felt like more was here to unpack. I started to realize these fears that were covering up my authenticity were causing me to feel pride and to seek external validation. Walk with me as I explore the dangers of external validation.

    Authenticity vs. Fear

    Authenticity vs. Fear

    I have noticed that my fear and insecurities steal my authenticity. Instead of coming across humble and authentic, often times I come across as having something to prove. Walk with me as I explore fear vs authenticity in my life.
