  • Emotions and the Holy Spirit
    Dec 25 2024
    Living with a heart fully alive is one of the best gifts you can give your family and pass onto your children. But emotions are complicated. They can be clouded by our circumstances, suppressed in favor of “getting things done,” or ignored to avoid confrontation. Unfortunately, this can easily become our default, especially when certain religious traditions equate emotion with sin.

    We’re in Season 2 titled “Awakening the Heart,” and in episode 5, Josh and Christi discuss how we are to take our emotions to God and partner with the Holy Spirit in them. Are emotions from God? If so, what does He want us to do with them? Can they be a pathway to living a more fulfilled and “lived” life? Listen in as Josh and Christi share how they prayerfully take their emotions to God in prayer, and partner with the Holy Spirit in their everyday lives.

  • The Complicated Relationship Between the Heart & Nervous System
    Dec 18 2024
    We’re in Season 2 titled “Awakening the Heart.” In episode 4, Josh and Christi explain the nervous system and why its primary purpose in our lives — to protect our connection, belonging, and dignity — can actually shut down the heart.

    A deeper understanding of how our bodies were created to survive can lead to deeper levels of empathy for yourself and those you love. Josh and Christi tells stories from their own marriage that highlight how the nervous systems puts up guardians around our hearts, but how also how we can become attuned to what happened and resolve it well so that our hearts remain open and alive to all that’s happening within and around us.

  • The Courageous, Compassionate, and Cheerful Heart of a Man
    Dec 11 2024
    We’re in Season 2 titled “Awakening the Heart.” In episode 3, Josh talks about the hearts of men and answers Christi’s questions about the upcoming men’s coaching cohort called The Field Experience.



    One of the things we often find is that a family is revived when the heart of wife and mom, and / or husband and dad, is first awakened. Christi interviews Josh as he shares stories about how his own heart has been awakened, research on what makes the difference for generational faith transmission, and how we can cultivate the “fields” God has given us with courage, compassion, and cheerful hearts.
