    Covid struck again, but we are back just in time for a new episode! Today we are finalizing our Compassion 2022 update, dealing with a tough listener question on letting go after major trauma, talking about the compartmentalizing of spirituality and science, and kicking off a new series dealing with mental health. Links From The Episode Don't Give The Enemy A Seat At Your Table by Louie Giglio Louie Giglio's Step By Step Method of “Winning the Battle of Your Mind” For every thought that comes into your mind: Determine the source of the thought. Is the thought congruent with God's Word? If it isn't, then bind it to Jesus' name and cast it out. Find where in Scripture the subject of that thought is proscribed. Then walk in the truth of God's Word. Did you miss Sunday?
