The term synergy comes from the Attic Greek word συνεργία synergia[1] from synergos, συνεργός, meaning "working together". Correction: Becky mentioned a verse & thought it was Nehemiah, it is from Philippians 2:5 “In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.”
Becky and Mellisa talk about how to know when you are triggered or someone else is possibly triggered verses you trying to control a situation or someone trying to control you. Like usual…we define our subject which is control and triggered. Definition of Control: 1. the power to influence or direct people's behavior or the course of events. 2. a group or individual used as a standard of comparison for checking the results of a survey or experiment. Definition of Triggered: 1. Adjective (of a mechanism) activated by a trigger. 2. (of a response) caused by particular action, process, or situation. Control and being triggered have two different feelings. This is how you can know the difference. There are some ways to remedy and heal from being triggered or controlled.

Love is powerful and can change everything. Becky and Mel explore the modern day's version of love and what the bible says about love. You may have wondered how to love in a society that has conditions on love and essentially has a throw away attitude. Becky and Mel go into deep thought about loving different people, people who dont love you back & how Jesus loved people. Love Chapter in Bible: 1 Corinthians 13 New International Version 13 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,but do not have love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies,they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
