Have you ever been in a spiritual situation that has left you more confused than empowered? In this Podcast episode, I share a story of the first time I witnessed something spiritual happen. I talk about how it left me confused and terrified. It wasn’t until I started to read and study the idea of spiritual battles that I was reminded of this moment. Many of us have experienced things like this happen, and people have shut it down. Our spiritual battle was never meant to be fear-driven and something we can’t talk about. We were born into battle. We must understand that we can't be ignorant of the enemy's schemes (2 Corinthians 2:11). When we decide to live for Christ, we are stronger than any struggle we will ever face. Does this mean we will never face any struggles? No, because we still live in a fallen world. But why does He allow all these struggles? God in his mercy does not interrupt our free-will because controlling love is not real love. No one is immune to the struggle, but our firm foundation in our faith is that we have a living hope in the midst of a hopeless world. We are stronger than the struggle because we have Christ living within us. Want to learn more about this topic? We'd love for you to join our brand new Global Book Club starting soon.

Sometimes in life things actually get harder before they get easier. It doesn't always mean you're going in the wrong direction when things feel off. Radical change happens sometimes as our situation gets worse. The beautiful lesson in all of this is that God always has a redemptive plan in mind. He already has a beautiful future set out for us, we might just have to wait a little longer than we might have thought.

In this Podcast episode Havilah shares some thoughts on how to navigate your December. The more you have going on, the more critical it is to have a strategy. There is a downside of December and the feelings it provides. A lot of us have expectations that come with Christmas-time, but the reality is completely different. Havilah gives you 5 keys to a peaceful December Admit you have expectations. If you do not admit it, you will feel more and more disappointed when reality hits you. This is called maturity. What are you expecting and what are your limitations? What is most important to you? What feeling do you want to have during this season? Sometimes these are two different things. Schedule things to facilitate your feelings. What can you do to connect with your people, God and yourself? Set expectations for others. You need to get in a place of throwing things, not always catching. People have expectations, but if you know you can’t do it all, you have to say no. Consider January. You cannot ignore January in December because it will slap you in the face when it comes. But if you consider it now, you will love it when it comes. Think about the feeling you want when the new year kicks in. Set it up right now, so you are not left with surprises and disappointment. We hope this helps you today and that your December will be peaceful.

* This episode was recorded during a Facebook Live broadcast. In this podcast, Havilah and her husband Ben discuss the topics of marriage and raising boys. They talk about the different dynamics of men and women and the learning process of not trying to change each other or expect them to act like the opposite sex but to validate and value how God designed both men and women to function differently. They share some personal experiences from their own lives about communication, emotions and expectations of raising boys and how boys operate and the shared responsibility of raising boys into men. *If you want to learn more about raising boys in to healthy, Godly men you can preview and sign up for the Moms of Men E-course: https://truthtotable.com/moms-of-men/

Today on the podcast I talk about the hard work that comes with change. It’s fall and the right season for change, shift and new beginnings. I am still in the thick of transition as you might know if you have been following this podcast. In this episode I talk about how we often wish that what God asks us to do is magically easy and doesn’t require any effort. But the truth is, sometimes doing life is just hard and not fun. With change comes hard work, adjustment and a different way of thinking, a process. The acknowledgment of it being hard does not make us weak but normal and human. It’s not a definition of our purpose but a reality. I love Psalm 90:17 in the Passion Translation, it says “O Lord, our God, let your sweet beauty rest upon us and give us favor. Come work with us, and then our works will endure. And give us success in all we do!” We want favor not just our own effort. We want to come and have God’s sweet beauty resting upon us. I know this is going to be work and it’s not going to be an easy road. So my prayer has been “God, come work with me. Let my work endure with you. I need favor.” So today, wherever you are, the truth is, if you feel like it’s work, sometimes that’s exactly what it is. The fact that it’s difficult is not a sign that you’re going in the wrong direction but that you are human, moving and that life is going to ebb and flow. God is with you, and he will lead you. You are allowed to endure. The harvest is so much sweeter when you’ve had sweat running down your face. I hope this encourages you today!
