All this month, we're focusing on the launch season...preparing our hearts for it, knowing what to expect from it, and navigating it with grace. I am so excited to have this conversation with my friend, Melanie Young, because I happen to know that she enlisted her...

How will things change when our children leave our homes? And how can we begin to prepare for those changes now, before they even happen? Joining us today is author, speaker, and mom, Erica Wiggenhorn.  Launching a child is EMOTIONAL... It can bring so much joy, but...

We have spent this entire season talking about anger, both in our children and in ourselves. We had a crash course in what anger is from a science or biology standpoint, talked about the cycle of anger, learned what anger is from a biblical standpoint, and even...

What does the Bible have to say about anger? When we're talking about the Biblical application, or understanding of what anger is, we're talking about what's happening in the heart. Early philosophers and scientists, like Aristotle, believed the heart was the place to...

I'm a reactor. My gut response is to react to the circumstances of life. I can feel it bodily. My heart rate speeds up, my face gets flushed, and I start having ALL the thoughts. All of them—good, bad, and everything in between. In 20 seconds or less, my mind has...

Have you lost your true identity? Forgotten who God made you to be? Maybe walked away from the true person inside of you because it didn't seem to fit the mold of what the world expected? Have you ever tried to change something about yourself, or apologized for being...
