Worth Living Life Isaiah Mahlstedt

Welcome back to the Worth Living Life!

Today, I share a thought that's been bouncing around in my head the last week. It all started when a few statements in an audiobook I was listening to didn't sit right with me, and continued with a discussion at a Bible study. 

When we're looking for clarity, purpose, or meaning, there is a truth that cannot be denied...

This life is not about us.

On today's episode of the Worth Living Life, I'm joined by Pastor, Author, Speaker, and Sportswriter Tyler Smith.

Listen in as we dive into his story, especially revolving around his new book, "Searching for Seven: The Journey of Seeking God Seven Days a Week"

In today's episode of the Worth Living Life...

I am joined by award winning filmmaker and author Chris Staron!

As he shares his journey into creating media, leading up to his current project, the Truce Podcast, he shares life lessons learned including:



His journey into filmmaking...
The path he took when he wondered about becoming a pastor...
His go-to choice when faced with choosing between directions in life... 
The piece of our culture welcomed by the church that worries him most...
and, what advice he would give to a young person seeking direction and God's will in life.

In today's episode of the Worth Living Life...

I share a question that was raised during the discussion after today's live training in the 5 Days to Purpose challenge.

Namely, how do we decide if we are supposed to be faithful right where we are at, or if we are supposed to pursue some other direction?

In this episode, I dive a little deeper into that, and share my take...

Tune in to hear the rest!

In today's episode, I continue sharing a peek behind the scenes of the 5 Days to Purpose challenge.

Today was the second day of the live training, so I share what the delivery of the challenge looks like, how I prepare (and some advice for anytime you are in a position to share with others), and a life lesson I was reminded of when I watched a random person's video...

Enjoy the episode!

In today's episode, youth minister Jeff Harding from Dallas, Texas share his story - and insights learned along the way - going from a kid with self image issues, to a multiple-degreed youth minister who has had the opportunity to work with a myriad of churches, camps, and retreats of all sizes over the last sixteen years.

A few highlights from the interview:

- The examples and experiences that lead him into youth ministry
- The crucial role mentors played in his life, and how to find one...
- Sharing the Gospel with people who look like they have it all together
- A conversation with 18-year-old Jeff
- "Cancel Culture": What it is and how it affects us right now...

I truly enjoyed recording this interview, and hope you pick up some of the nuggets that Jeff was putting down.
