The Heart of Your Leadership: Part 1 of 4 with Bill Lokey Jun 09, 2020

Show notes

No matter your stage, you lead people. As a parent, you lead your kids. As a spouse, you lead your husband or wife. At work, you lead your employees, congregants, soldiers, clients, and teams. How would those you lead describe your ability to connect to their realities? And how much do we really pay attention to those realities versus focusing solely on our own?
Make no mistake, the quality of how well you lead rises or falls on your inner world. And the people you lead feel it. That's why we begin season 8 of our podcast with a 4-part series on the Heart of Leadership. Sitting in as co-host while Christi is on maternity leave is world-renowned therapist Bill Lokey.
In this series, we'll be covering The Heart of Your Leadership, The Heart of Connection, The Heart of Trauma, and The Heart of Your Culture.
In this first episode, Josh and Bill talk about:
* What makes a person a leader* What happens when your stage is ripped out from under you* How to transition well as a leader when bad things happen* What it means to grieve and why it's critical for how we lead* Why we have a tendency to focus more on reputation than character* What happens when we feel like we're not enough or don't have what it takes to lead

Growth Environment for Kids: Part 2 Spiritual Growth May 21, 2020

Social distancing has given us a chance to really focus on the atmosphere of our home, both emotionally and spiritually. It's made us a little more intentional, but also has brought a lot more fun to our home as well.
In this episode, we talk about the practices we've been implementing in our home to cultivate our kids' hearts and foster a healthy spiritual environment for all of us.
Here are some highlights:
* The misperception that spiritual growth begins with instruction* Why the spiritual environment of our home rises and falls on modeling* The transmitting power of relational warmth * How listening and asking questions of our kids influences the environment * Why worship changes the atmosphere of your home* The ways we teach our kids to listen for God's voice* Why we need to take prayer seriously and be the spiritual covering for our kids

Leading Your Family with Aaron Sharp May 06, 2020

Show notes

Leading your family well requires intention and discernment. To be honest, it can't be done alone either. You need the ability to learn along the way what works and what doesn't for your family. In this episode, self-proclaimed "expert pregnancy survivor," Aaron Sharp (IT Director for Right Now Media) joins us to share ways he and his wife Elaina, aka Wonder Woman, lead their family.
Aaron also wrote an incredibly witty book on pregnancy and preparing for a new baby, which is important for our season of life. Having done this pregnancy thing himself four times (okay, let's give his wife Elaina the credit), they have a zoologist, a ballerina, a fashionista, and a Jedi. Here are some highlights:
* Witty conversation on how to prepare your home for a new baby, especially as a dad* How they balance his role and his wife's entrepreneurial journey owning a plumbing company* What they believe about schooling their kids* Eye-opening ways he leads his family in this season of social distancing

Setting Weekly and Yearly Rhythms Apr 22, 2020

Show notes

We didn't always have family rhythms established on paper. And we suffered for it, oftentimes feeling overwhelmed, other times feeling purposeless. In this episode, we talk about how we established family rhythms, why we gave each day of the week a name, and how those rhythms serve our family and keep us thriving throughout social distancing. We also talk about how why we named each month and set up a yearly rhythm that brings us hope.
