A Biblical Perspective on Confidence1. Master Yourself → Renew Your MindRobert talks about mastering fears and insecurities. The Bible says true mastery begins with the renewal of the mind:“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind…” (Romans 12:2).Instead of self-control through willpower alone, we find it by letting the Spirit guide our thoughts and emotions (Galatians 5:22-23). Biblical confidence is rooted not in self, but in God's Spirit within us.Greene emphasizes reading people well. Scripture agrees—but frames it as wisdom and love:“The purposes of a person's heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out.” (Proverbs 20:5).True insight comes from compassion and discernment, not manipulation. Confidence grows when we choose to serve others rather than impress them (Mark 10:45).Greene says confidence comes through repeated action. The Bible calls this walking by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7).Confidence is not the absence of fear, but taking steps forward because we trust God's promises:“Be strong and courageous… for the Lord your God goes with you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6).Greene highlights trial-and-error. Scripture reframes this as trials producing maturity:“Consider it pure joy… whenever you face trials… because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” (James 1:2-4).Each failure becomes an opportunity for God to shape character. In Christ, mistakes aren't wasted—they're redeemed.Instead of endless reinvention through image, the Bible says our deepest transformation is being made new in Christ:“If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” (2 Corinthians 5:17).Dangerous confidence isn't about ego—it's about living boldly in our identity as sons and daughters of God.Hook: "Robert Greene says confidence is dangerous—Scripture says it's holy when rooted in Christ."Step 1: Self-mastery → Romans 12:2 (renewed mind).Step 2: Reading people → Proverbs 20:5, Mark 10:45.Step 3: Confidence by action → Deuteronomy 31:6, 2 Corinthians 5:7.Step 4: Learning by failure → James 1:2-4.Step 5: Reinvention → 2 Corinthians 5:17.Closing: Encourage listeners that true confidence is not self-made but God-breathed boldness (Acts 4:13).Enjoy and share!davidTrigFollow me on Instagram @davidtrigEmail me at trig@davidtrig.comGet your 90 minute complementary coaching sesssion at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠davidtrig.com/coaching

Intro:"Men are more connected digitally than ever before… and yet more disconnected in real life. Studies show that male friendships have been cut in half in the last 30 years. Today, many men can't name one person they could call in a crisis. This isn't just a social problem — it's a spiritual one. And the Church has an answer."Key Scripture: Proverbs 27:17 – 'As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.'Main Points:1. Jonathan & David: A model for deep, godly friendship.2. The difference between activity friends and accountability friends.3. How brotherhood strengthens faith and resilience.Challenge: Invite a friend to coffee or lunch with the goal of deeper conversation.Enjoy and share!davidTrigFollow me on Instagram @davidtrigEmail me at trig@davidtrig.comGet your 90 minute complementary coaching sesssion at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠davidtrig.com/coaching

Intro:"Men are more connected digitally than ever before… and yet more disconnected in real life. Studies show that male friendships have been cut in half in the last 30 years. Today, many men can't name one person they could call in a crisis. This isn't just a social problem — it's a spiritual one. And the Church has an answer."Biblical Foundation:Genesis 2:18 – “The Lord God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone.'”God said these words before sin entered the world. This means that loneliness is not part of God's design — even in a perfect garden, Adam needed companionship. If it wasn't good for Adam to be alone, it's not good for us either.Main Points:The Scope of the ProblemResearch shows men aged 25–60 are among the loneliest demographic.Loneliness is linked to depression, addiction, and even physical health issues.This is not just a “men's issue” — it affects families, workplaces, and churches.Why It's a Spiritual BattleIsolation makes us vulnerable to temptation and despair.1 Peter 5:8 compares the enemy to a lion — and lions hunt the isolated.The devil's first tactic is often to get us alone in our thoughts.God's Blueprint for ConnectionFrom the beginning, God made people for community, mission, and relationship.Jesus modeled life with a close group of men — not just teaching them, but eating, walking, serving, and grieving with them.Brotherhood is part of discipleship.Practical Step:This week, pray and ask God to put one man on your heart who might be lonely. Then, send him a simple message or invite him for coffee. Don't wait for him to reach out — you be the one to step in.Closing Prayer & Challenge:"Lord, You set the lonely in families. Forgive us for ignoring those who feel unseen. Open our eyes to the men in our lives who need connection. Give us the courage to reach out and be the friend we wish we had. In Jesus' name, Amen."Challenge: Don't just think about connection — act on it. By next Sunday, have at least one intentional conversation with a man you suspect may be lonely.

I have a virtual friend, his name is Cliff Ravenscraft (https://www.cliffravenscraft.com). He's been my virtual mentor for the last 10 years. I've never met Cliff, never spoken to him, we emailed once, but I feel I know him very well. Recently, Cliff did a podcast episode about his financial reality, how he needs $20k/month to do his business and life, and currently has $2k/month in income. He has a full time family, business and life and a leaky roof. He said he's taking money from his house to pay his bills.AND YET, he has faith that moves mountains, he's not worried. In fact he says "I have ZERO anxiety, I have an abundance of love, peace and joy". (https://www.cliffravenscraft.com/podcasts/the-cliff-ravenscraft-show-where-strategy-meets-soul/episodes/2149060881)In a season when I am FULL of anxiety, I thank God for you Cliff. This is my thanks to Cliff and my commitment to be more like him and BELIEVE.davidTrig

El concepto de "cuando el empleado se va" puede referirse a varios escenarios, dependiendo del contexto. Que hacer cuando:Renuncia: Cuando un empleado decide dejar voluntariamente su puesto de trabajo. En este caso, se suelen seguir ciertos procedimientos formales, como la entrega de una carta de renuncia, la planificación de una transición adecuada y la realización de una entrevista de salida.Despido: Si el empleado es despedido de manera involuntaria, ya sea por motivos de rendimiento, reestructuración o cualquier otra razón. Esto también involucra procedimientos legales, dependiendo de la legislación laboral de cada país, como indemnización, preaviso, y demás.Jubilación: En el caso de que un empleado se retire por edad avanzada, también existen procedimientos y beneficios asociados, como pensiones o fondos de retiro.Muerte: Aunque es un escenario menos común, la muerte de un empleado también implica ciertas consecuencias tanto a nivel emocional para los compañeros de trabajo, como administrativas en cuanto a la compensación a la familia o herederos.Gracias!davidTrigFollow me on Instagram @davidtrigEmail me at trig@davidtrig.comGet your 90 minute complementary coaching sesssion at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠davidtrig.com/coaching
