Listen as we confront how shame and obesity can weaken our message as believers and hear Alan’s unique perspective from his experience in the life insurance business. This chapter powerfully underscores the urgent need to manage our health to fulfill our life roles and responsibilities. The journey to weight loss is as much a mental and emotional battle as it is physical. We explore the profound shifts in mindset required for sustainable weight loss, encouraging everyone to become experts on their own needs rather than follow prescriptive diets or exercises. Through personal anecdotes, including one individual's progress from 317 to 284 pounds, we highlight the significance of support systems and self-discovery. We challenge you to reframe weight loss struggles as a gift, one that reveals a reservoir of inner strength and power you may not have known existed.

This episode tackles these double standards head-on, urging leaders to confront health issues openly and without shame. We share moving stories, including a 70-year-old man’s inspiring 135-pound weight loss journey, to exemplify the power of faith and positive affirmations.

#130 LTLT S5 EP 3: Walking in God's Light: Embracing Truth and Dispelling Darkness
Send us a text What does it mean to truly walk in the light of God? In this episode, we uncover the profound spiritual teachings from First John, Chapter 1, Verses 5 and 6, where we learn about God as light and the absence of darkness within Him. We explore how being part of God's family requires us to embody and reflect this divine light in our own lives. We discuss the importance of sincere fellowship with God, highlighting that claiming such fellowship while walking in darkness is self-deceptive. The choice between living in light or darkness is stark and significant, as light inherently dispels darkness, and our lives should visibly reflect our relationship with God. Reflecting on our actions versus our words, we delve into the crucial matter of aligning the two. Are we living lives marked by truth and integrity? This episode encourages self-evaluation to determine if we are truly walking in the light. We wrap up with a heartfelt prayer, expressing gratitude for God's grace and mercy while seeking His ongoing protection and guidance. We extend our blessings and love to you, our dear listeners, as we invite you to continue this spiritual journey with us in our next session, where we will further explore the teachings of First John.

Send us a text Have you ever sensed a disconnect in your relationships, despite your efforts? Catherine and I, along with our insightful guests, peel back the layers of love languages, revealing how these vital forms of expression forge deep bonds in our personal and spiritual lives. We delve into the subtleties of verbal and non-verbal communication, discussing Gary Chapman's five love languages, and share our own journeys of how honoring these languages has been pivotal in understanding and validating our loved ones. Missteps in language can lead to feelings of neglect, something both Michael and I have experienced firsthand, and we open up about how adapting to each other's evolving communication styles is essential. As our conversation unfolds, we confront the reality that the initial spark in relationships often dims post-marriage and the significance of intentional growth to reignite that flame. We take a hard look at the necessity for continuous communication, stressing that it's not just about weathering storms but also about nurturing the everyday moments that fortify a relationship. Our personal narratives underscore how an earnest effort to learn and speak each other's love language can transform interactions, whether in the context of marriage, business ventures, or family ties.

Send us a text When life's brevity becomes all too apparent, how do we pivot toward a path that's both purposeful and fulfilling? That question is at the heart of our conversation with Chris Anderson, CEO and founder of Elevate Media Group, who shares his deeply personal journey from the corporate grind to entrepreneurship during the unsettling times of a global pandemic. Our opening prayer sets the tone for a session filled with reflections on family, the significance of faith in the face of adversity, and the bravery needed to chase an idea that could change everything.

We explore the weight that each personal narrative carries, and discuss how, in the image of God, we have a purpose that's written just for us. But it's not all introspection; we get practical, too. C.S. Lewis's "The Screwtape Letters" provides a backdrop for our conversation on overcoming the paralyzing effects of fear and doubt.

In the spirit of togetherness, we wrap up with a focus on community and collaboration. Chris illustrates how his company, Elevate Media Group, is fostering connections and offering invaluable resources for harnessing the power of social media and video content in ways that are accessible to all. Jesus himself chose companionship over solitude, and we underscore the importance of following that example—when we band together and let faith lead the way, there's no telling how far our light can reach. So, I thank you for joining us and encourage you to recognize your precious worth. You're a gem on a journey of refinement, and as we part ways today, I send you forward with a heartfelt triple amen.

Send us a text When the weight of the world seems to press down on your spirit, it's the diamonds in the rough—those God-given gifts of grace and faith—that remind us of our true resilience. Catherine and I, Michael, invite you to a soul-enriching conversation where we share personal battles, like my recent sinus infection, and the epiphanies that arise, reminding us that feelings need not cloud the healing within. We delve into the power of prayer, extending a hand to those seeking and discovering their faith, and affirming our identity in Christ. It's about wearing our faith on our sleeves, quite literally, as we ponder the idea of faith-inspired T-shirts, and sharing our spiritual journey with the world. The path to 'Living Free' is an invigorating one, filled with the understanding that our imperfections and strengths are handcrafted by the Divine Jeweler himself. In this heart-to-heart, Catherine and I discuss embracing our individuality with all its flaws, much like a diamond emerging from unrefined beginnings. We tackle life's challenges, not as setbacks, but as necessary steps toward growth, and the profound shift that happens when we move from the driver's seat to the passenger seat of our lives—symbolizing a deeper surrender to divine guidance and trust. Finally, we embrace the transformative impact of spiritual growth, not just within ourselves, but as a ripple effect throughout the world. It's about shedding old skins and adopting a new presence, 'absent from the body and present with the Lord.' As we candidly address distractions and vulnerabilities, we aim to ignite a collective revival, awakening the dormant parts of our souls. And with this renewed vision, we look forward to our next season, making a tangible impact and recognizing each person's worth as a precious gem in God's grand design.

Send us a text Step into the heart of an enlightening dialogue that aims to elevate the essence of balanced leadership in our society. Today, we have the honor of being joined by Michael Jaquith, who lends his invaluable insights as we navigate the landscape of authentic male leadership. We celebrate the distinct ways in which men and women lead, respecting that our differences don’t undermine our equal dignity but enhance our unique perspectives. Embodying non-toxic leadership is an uphill task, especially in a world that often mistakes toxicity for strength. We explore this paradox, particularly within the context of Christian male leadership, where the call to self-sacrificial love is paramount. We probe into the notion of toxic masculinity, dissecting how it can distort the understanding of leadership and lead to sinful practices. Beyond that, we underscore the value of accountability in our words and actions, realizing how disproportionate emotions can be a telltale sign of lurking toxicity. Finally, we pivot our attention to the life-giving force of real connections and friendships. As we wade through the digital age, we are often confronted with insidious loneliness and desperation, making the pursuit of authentic relationships even more crucial. To our male listeners, we encourage you to find men friends, and our female listeners to reach out to women friends, embracing the unique nourishment that same-gender relationships can offer. This engaging conversation will leave you enlightened and hopefully, ignite within you a desire to foster deeper connections and strive for non-toxic leadership.

Send us a text What if unforgiveness is the invisible chain holding you back from spiritual growth and divine purpose? Let's untangle that thought in this poignant discussion on the power of forgiveness and the dangers of resentment. We delve into the toxic effects of carrying bitterness, likening it to a cancer gnawing at our core, blocking us from achieving our God-intended potential. It's a heart-to-heart on how crucial it is to live each day as if it's our last, cherishing our relationships, forgiving, and letting go. We guide you through the liberating power of forgiveness that comes hand-in-hand with the grace of Christ, allowing the rebirth of a new, stronger self. As we move forward, we cast a spotlight on the dire consequences of harboring unforgiveness, obstructing our connection with the divine. We help you understand how deep-rooted anger, envy, and resentment sprout from a bed of unforgiveness, causing disharmony and disrupting our strive for holiness. We explore the golden rule of forgiving as we wish to be forgiven, reiterating that failure to do so turns us blind to the value of relationships and shuns truth. It's a transformative conversation shedding light on the power of forgiveness and its profound role in personal and spiritual growth. Tune in and unshackle yourself from the chains of unforgiveness.

In an engaging discussion, we illuminate the significance of discerning truth and the necessity of self-forgiveness.

Send us a text We are built to handle the pressure! What did you think about Ep 4? "Sometimes rock bottom is necessary for change to happen" - Michael "We are not alone; Life happens to us all!" -Catherine A time to Weep, Is there something or someone causing you to weep? Can we help you? Weeping can be rooted in pain and in pleasure. A way God has given us to be able to express our emotions. Michael explains the parallel between the pressure of the diamond and the pressure we handle in living from day to day. Often we wonder why we are the way we are but we are who we are on purpose for purpose. "Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning -Psalm 30:5 Nights is not necessarily singular, can be days to months, simply put, however long the Spirit decides. In the same token remember that on the other side of the night is day. @Tyler Perry is referenced about in the movie, Why did I get Married 1 in the scene when the ladies are in the restroom. Sheila explains to her friends what happed when Mike left and Troy came, she and everyone else wept. Weeping is a part of life, Don't give up! A time to Laugh is important, no laughter can cause you to age faster, a personal testament of Michael's he, himself shares. It is the brightness on the other side of darkness! The couple encourages us to simply SMILE even the toughest moments of life. Love yourself enough to believe even in the face of adversity -Catherine. Make the best of things as much and as often as you can. Briefly touching on Mourning and Dancing with a handful of powerful thoughts. One being in the process of mourning all grieve in different ways and don't get stuck. Grieve and don't allow people to make you feel guilty for doing so. After you grieve LIVE so you can unapologetically dance!!
