    For most of us, if we want to love the people in our lives well, it requires that we wake up early. Waking up earlier means we get alone time to spend in prayer and studying the word; it means we get time to align with Christ before we begin to pour out. In this week's Forward Five, Nick shares how he established the discipline of waking up early. For a while, Nick was waking up at 4am - now he consistently wakes up at 5am. In this short episode, Nick shares the value of waking up early and practical tips that might be simple, but they actually work.

    There is no greater gift you can give to your marriage than to pray for it. So, then, why do so many of us wait to pray until things are desperate? Our marriages need our consistent prayers because there is an enemy who is consistently trying to divide us. Let us not be naive to the enemy's schemes but instead get on our knees and pray for our spouses! If Jesus, while with His disciples on earth, saw the power and importance in praying for them - that God would protect them - how much more so should we be praying for God to protect our spouses and our marriages?

    In Galatians 1:6 Paul says that he is shocked at how quickly they were turning to another gospel. And while it might seem like a far-off idea to many Christians - many Christians are not experiencing what Christ has called them to because they have intentionally or unintentionally believed another gospel. It’s easy in America to think that the gospel is about our comfort and putting us back in control - there are so many messages preached that refer to this. In this week's episode, we expose the lies, and address the heart concerning the danger of believing “another gospel.” More from Forward Conversations:  Sign up for our Email List and receive updates on new episodes, freebies, and other fun content!

    Discouragement is a real spiritual issue. One that Nick and I wrestle with almost on a weekly basis. Discouragement often comes sneaking in through the door of “waiting” making us weary in doing good.We grow tired... Tired of trying. Tired of hoping. In this episode, we want to equip and encourage the Saints to break free from discouragement. “If the devil can’t destroy you, he will often try to discourage you.” - Craig Groeschel   Scripture References: Isaiah 40:28-31 “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. 29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Psalm 139:11-12 “If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,” 12 even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.   More from Forward Conversations:  Sign up for our Email List and receive updates on new episodes, freebies, and other fun content!
