EP9 | How to Actually Believe God and Why It Matters Feb 15, 2018

Show notes

So much of what we invest our time into during this life will not matter eternally. Every worldly thing we build will ultimately crumble.

He has instilled into our… Read more

Show notes

We all make big purchases at some point during our lives (furniture, a car, a computer, a house, a vacation home), and each of these things become a noteworthy investment of our resources on this earth.

EP3 | Redeeming Christmas Gift Giving Nov 21, 2017

Show notes

The practice of giving Christmas gifts has potential to be holy and precious, and yet somewhere along the way, we have gone astray. Instead of joy, we feel stress at the prospect of figuring out what to get for so many people, not to mention paying for them all. Instead of gratitude and love, our children feel a sense of… Read more

EP2 | Evaluating Your Busyness in Light of Eternity Nov 07, 2017

Show notes

What keeps you from living a life that truly matters, a life that is moment by moment soaked in eternal purpose? For many people, the answer is busyness.
