394: God Fights for You
Hi, friend. I sure hope you’re doing well. Last week I told a story about getting a gift from my dad. I have another story about my dad this week. You probably know by now that I love to tell stories about my dad. This story isn’t about getting a car. It’s about something he did for me when I was young that our Heavenly Father does for us now – he fights for us.

393: Yes, You Can
Hello, my friend. I hope you’re having a good day. In our human reasoning, Joshua had every reason to be uncertain. No one would have bet on the Hebrew people to conquer Canaan. But Joshua had one big thing going for him – God told him he would be victorious.

392: Glory Days
Hello, friend. I hope you’re doing well. If you’ve been listening to the podcast the past few weeks, you know we just wrapped up a series about managing our thought lives. This week we’re starting a new series I think will encourage you as you uproot negative thinking and replace it with truth. We’re going back to the Old Testament, to the story of Joshua and the children of Israel. You’ve never seen a group more stuck in a rut and trapped in destructive, negative thought patterns! But God had a Promised Land for them, and, friend, he has one for you too.

391: A New Way of Thinking
Hello, my friend. Thank you so much for joining me for another Encouraging Word. Today we’re wrapping up our series on thought management. If you’ve missed any episodes, I encourage you to go back and catch up. But here’s the big idea, as found in Ephesians 4:23-24: “Let the Spirit change your way of thinking and make you into a new person.”

390: When You’re Dealing with a Difficult Person
Hi, friend. I hope you’re doing well today. What do you do when those you live with are hard to live with? Maybe it’s your spouse, your siblings, your neighbors, your co-workers. We all have relationships that challenge us, and a difficult relationship can consume our thoughts. So let’s start there. To deal with a difficult person, consider how you think about them.

389: What to Do when Lust Lures You
Hi, friend. I hope you’re doing well. A quick note before we get into today’s episode, particularly if you listen in the car or where younger ears can hear. This message includes the reading of a painful story in the Old Testament and some pretty blunt language about the dangers of pornography. Consider this a heads-up if you want to adjust when or where you listen.

388: When Your Heart Needs Peace
Hello, my friend. I hope you’re having a good day. Anxiety. It’s an all-too-common part of our lives. The statistics, especially among young people, are staggering. I know there are legitimate concerns in our world that need attention. And I know there are times clinical intervention is the solution God provides to those who struggle. But I also know peace is possible.

387: When You Always Want More Than You Have
Hello, friend. I hope you’re having a good day. Today’s episode is a bit of a history lesson. We’re going back to first century Rome, to the time of the apostle Paul and the emperor Nero. Readers of the New Testament have learned a lot from Paul, but the life of Nero offers a critical lesson as well.

386: When You Battle Guilt
Hi, friend. Thanks for joining me for another episode of the Encouraging Word Podcast. If you’ve been listening to the podcast the past few weeks, you know we’re talking about finding a new way of living through better thinking. So maybe you’re ready to tackle some of those specific negative thought patterns that weigh us down. Guilt is a big one – all the should haves that hound us. But here’s the good news: God has given us a tool to help deal with our guilt.

385: How to Uproot and Replant Your Thoughts
Hello, my friend. I hope you’re well. What do you think of when you hear the word “meditation”? Perhaps a yoga class or quiet chanting or one of those mindfulness apps on your phone? You might think of the phrase “Clear your mind.” Well as you learn to tame your thoughts, you’ll discover that an empty mind is not the goal. When you banish the bad thoughts, seek to replace them with good thoughts. Meditate on God’s Word and fill your mind with his goodness.

384: Breaking Through Destructive Thought Patterns
Hi, friend. Thank you for joining me on the podcast this week. Today’s episode is about UFOs. No, not that kind. I’m using the term UFO to describe those destructive thought patterns that leave us stuck in what the Bible calls strongholds. But there is hope! When you learn to identify and deal with them, those scary, odd-looking UFOs will stop taking up space in your brain.

383: Think About What You Think About (Tame Your Thoughts Series)
Hello, friend. I hope you’re having a good day. We’re diving into a new topic this week on the Encouraging Word Podcast – thought management. Controlling your anger or managing your anxiety may seem like an impossible task at times, but it’s not! It’s a promise found in Scripture and backed up by neuroscience. With God’s help, you can tame each thought and become a person who thinks and acts more like Jesus.

382: Trust God, Really Trust Him
Hi, friend. Thank you so much for joining me for the podcast this summer. I hope this series has been an encouragement to you, particularly if you’re going through a difficult time. We’ve got some new stuff coming next week that I’m really excited about, but first we’re going to put a bow on our study of the life of Joseph. If there’s one thing you take from it, may it be this: we have a heavenly father who guides us with a sure hand.

381: How to Survive a Crisis
Hello, friend. Welcome to the Encouraging Word Podcast. Did you know the Bible has something to say about crisis management? That might feel like a modern construct, but it’s not. In Joseph’s life he faced multiple crises, including an extended, widespread famine. So how did he get through it? A two-pronged approach – he approached the crisis with faith and then came up with a plan.

379: You Can Bounce Back
Hi, friend. Welcome to the Encouraging Word Podcast. If you’ve listened to the last few episodes, you’ve likely noticed a recurring theme: Joseph is resilient. He faced challenge after challenge, but kept bouncing back. How could he do that? Because he saw the bigger picture of an active, sovereign God.

378: Not Guilty Anymore
Hello, my friend. Thanks for joining me today. This summer on the podcast we’ve been studying the life of Joseph to learn how God helps us get through painful and difficult parts of life. This week we’re deviating a bit from Joseph to take a look at the role his brothers play in the story. Maybe as you’re listening you relate more to Jacob’s other sons. If that’s you, be encouraged, friend – God is still working.

377: Release Your Resentments
Hi, friend. I hope you’re doing well today. For anyone who’s ever been treated badly—in other words, everyone—Colossians 3:13 offers one of the New Testament’s most challenging admonitions: “even as Christ forgave you, so you must also do.” Really, God? you might think. I’m supposed to just forgive them? I know it’s not easy, and it won’t be a straight line. But, with God’s help, you will find the space of grace.
