More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind54 | Do You Need to Confess Every Bad Thought? Just Because You Think It, Do You Have To BE It? Hear What God Has To Say.This is an excerpt taken from Episode 33. You can find the full episode here. There is a lie in Christian circles, specifically in Christian/Biblical counseling, that if pressure reveals thoughts that are not Christ-like, you ARE those thoughts and you need to confess. This subtle deception completely removes the fact that Jesus died to give us "a way of escape." We can resist temptation! We do not have to be who our heart wants us to be. We have the God-given power to choose because of the shared victory we have as believers in c...2025-02-2826 min

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind52 | What if You Lost it All?On this one-year anniversary of the More Power Than You Think Podcast, I want to share one of the most vital, life-changing mind set shifts we must make in order to truly keep God in charge of our lives and to avoid resisting His plans for us. And that is, your position is not your purpose. Positions change, your purpose does not. Don’t let yourself believe the subtle lie that your security or purpose is in a position. If you do this, your loyalty, surrender, and devotion are misplaced. Let God use yo...2024-11-0526 min

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind49 | Not Perfection, Just the Next StepI love the examples God gives us in Scripture. They offer a roadmap for us, so we can stay encouraged and on course. God used Joseph, Moses, David and Paul to minister to me. God did not expect perfection from them, only the next step of obedience as He continued to reveal their path. He does the same for us.

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind48 | Can God Trust You To Be Lonely?It is so important that we learn to be content with loneliness. If we don't learn this skill, our relationships will suffer, our ministry will suffer, and our walk with God will suffer. Even in the best relationships, there is still a hunger in the soul only Christ can fill. We can be surrounded by people that genuinely love and care for us and still be lonely. And sometimes, we truly are alone. No one can meet the intricate needs of our soul like God can. Let’s...2024-10-0821 min

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind46 | It's Not Just About YouSometimes we designate a trial in our life as a time to be “off duty” from being a light for Christ. Suddenly, we seem to have blinders on and all we can see is how our trial is affecting US. But if we can view our trials through God's lens, many blessings surface. We lose many blessings when we isolate our interactions and trials to only be about us. Consider our Savior. Even facing death and abandonment, Jesus made His trial about others. Nothing He went through was for Him alone, but rather was f...2024-09-2418 min

Suppressed DreamsKing David had a dream of building God’s temple and was ready to take action, but God gave him a hard, “No!” Has God done this to a dream in your life? Said NO. How did you handle that? What became of the dream? There is a difference between suppressing our dreams, which leads to discontentment, and surrendering our dreams, which leads to peace. At the core of this surrender is trust. The more we trust God, the less painful surrender will be. The more we trust God, the more assura...2024-09-1720 min

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind44 | To Be His FriendScripture tells us that we can be God's friend. What an incredible honor and privilege. Several years ago, God helped me understand a way we can love Him with even more of our heart, soul, and mind so that we become a true friend of God. It is amazing that our Holy God condescends to our level to share friendship with us. Let’s uncover an obstacle to this friendship so that we can avoid it and God can continue to call us His true friend. Free Cou...2024-09-1015 min

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind43 | Christ Is not Optional For the Lost OR the SavedMany believe that the idea of existing for the sole purpose of glorifying God is a ridiculous concept. Most have a perspective that following God is more like a hobby, and they see a relationship with Christ as optional. It is a given that for a lost soul to go to heaven, Christ is not optional, but there are also Christians who are living as if Christ is optional. Are we content with salvation and pursuing nothing more? A Christian loses so much by not pursuing Christ beyond salvation. Untold blessings...2024-09-0315 min

Perhaps you will agree that looking back on certain trials in your life you can see at least one way you benefited from the trial. People yearn for proof and examples that God really is enough for their trial. When we choose to keep living abundantly regardless of hardships and afflictions, we are giving others hope that scripture really is true, and that God really is enough. If we look from God's perspective, trials are a gift. This episode is about affliction, b...2024-08-2721 min

It is about sacrifice and how reaching, investing in, and enriching another life for Christ is worth ANY cost. We are so valuable that Jesus considered us worth the cost of His suffering and shame.

Our mental battles can be very similar.

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind34 | Mental Illness Part 6 of 6 - How I Became Stable and How We as Brethren Can Be United, Even with Differing BeliefsOf all the episodes from this series, this last one pulls at my heart the most. I spend more time on stigma in this episode than any of the others. It is a sad topic, but it is the truth of what’s going on in our churches. I also am forthright about the harm in the approach many take in counseling, an approach that has much truth but is mixed with very little mercy, grace, or heavenly wisdom.

I point out that none of the counseling types are intentionally trying to steer you away from truth, but I do highlight things you need to be aware of in both secular and Biblical counseling that could be harmful.

I talk about price, credentials, availability, and what kind of confidentiality you can expect amongst the different counselors.

More Power Than You Think : Anatomy of a Christ-like Mind24 | Renewing the Mind Vs. Positive ThinkingThe power of positive thinking alone, from a bird’s eye view, is scriptural. It is part of renewing the mind. Thinking positive thoughts and choosing to see the good in circumstances aligns with scripture. But, gaining peace by thinking positive things alone, without the correct motive, anchor, or compass of the word of God can lead to error and get us out of alignment with Christ. We aren’t just to focus on good, happy things but on the eternal, living God. “For in him we live, and move, and have our being.” Acts 17:28a In this...2024-04-0317 min

My friend believes scripture supports the idea that God wants us happy, and so do I.

God doesn't always allow us to see the results of our ministry, our service, our parenting, our sacrifice. This can make it feel we are not having an impact on those around us.
