I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.”   Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast.

"Building character is like eating vegetables. It takes effort, but it is valuable and helps us invest in ourselves meaningfully," says Nishant Kumar Singhal, Chief of Staff at Scholars of Finance, and our guest in the latest episode of Investing in Integrity. Throughout his podcast interview with Ross Overline, he delves into the very essence of SOF's mission: inspiring character and integrity in the next generation of finance leaders. Nishant also opens up about his transformation from an introspective and anxious youngster to a driven and purposeful leader, alluding to the role SOF played in that metamorphosis. He then sheds light on the prevailing culture in finance on college campuses, pinpointing the transformative potential of an ethics-driven approach.  Speaking about the revolutionary impact SOF is achieving, Nishant emphasizes the need to change perceptions and promote values in the finance sector. To that end, he mentions the critical role of character screening in the recruitment process. “It's really time that firms who care about the character and care about the principles and values of their staff begin to meaningfully screen for that,” he says. Further, he touches upon SOF's vision study, and its goal to quantify the organization's profound influence on its members. For those with a keen interest in the future of finance, a passion for ethical leadership, or simply the desire to hear a transformative personal journey, this episode is your gateway to impactful insights. Dive in for a profound exploration into the heart of finance's future, its challenges, and the leaders shaping its evolution.

Cultivating Character is not part of a process formula, it's not a skill set that you learn and then add to your armory. We are all different in that we have different ways of using the power of our consciousness when it's restored to its true and accurate nature. That's the key - restore the awareness of your true nature and the ability to to express the appropriate character traits follow... naturally. No one can teach that - but, they can trigger your memory of the deep states that are prior to all the stuff that you've learned and developed up to now.. That deep state is the real you. it's more about unlearning years of institutionalization...

Competency opens a lot of doors; charisma wins a lot of friends; but only character can sustain you.

Tune in as licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and founding JSerra faculty member, Cara Morales, goes toe to toe with the number one challenge facing parents today: their relationship with their teenagers. She offers inspiring insights on the centrality of strong relationships for our children's success in school and beyond, and explains why our connection with them is their best hope for navigating a jarringly secular culture and achieving overall happiness. She also shares tricks and tips for building bonds with teen children that will produce behaviors and outcomes every parent wants for their sons and daughters. ABOUT THE GUEST Cara Morales is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who divides her career between her private practice and JSerra Catholic High School. A wife and mother of three, she is the founding member of JSerra's Theology Department and Campus Ministry program. Additionally, she crafted a vision for JSerra to become one of the first high schools in the country to provide full-time, on-campus professional therapy — a practice she sees as increasingly more critical given the ongoing breakdown of the family. She spearheads JSerra's original seminar series for students called Identity Formation, which creates co-institutional small groups that carry out conversations with teens about the cultural toxins that challenge their faith and values. Recently she launched a Facebook page for parent support called Cultivating Character through Parental Connection.

"Those things that are really, really important are generally the things that you wouldn't be able to take in a fire."Audrey Monke Hi Podcast Friends, This week I share a personal update and some insights. Among other things, I talk about: • The fire that threatened my camp last week and thoughts on what we choose to take in an evacuation. • Prioritizing our own and our children's mental health. • My journey towards learning to accept mediocrity. I also share about the work I'm doing through GATA (Gold Arrow Teacher Academy) to support and encourage teachers in the areas of Creating Community, Celebrating Strengths, Cultivating Character. And I talk about my goal of "finding my people" through my new Patreon community. Thanks for listening to this episode and joining me in raising a generation of kids who become thriving adults! Here's to raising a generation of kids who become thriving adults! Audrey I can't wait to get back outside (after the smoke clears). BIG IDEAS • The most important things in our life aren't things. • Importance of prioritizing our own, and our children's, mental health. • Teachers need support and resources to connect and engage with students (GATA). • We can take small steps, and make simple changes, to help ourselves and our children flourish. LINKS & RESOURCES • Creek Fire News Update (Gold Arrow Camp) • GATA (Gold Arrow Teacher Academy) • Join Sunshine Parenting on Patreon QUOTES • "Think about what it is you value. What would you really want to take with you (besides people & pets)  if you only had 10 minutes to gather it up?" • "We need to remember to prioritize the mental health of ourselves and our kids. Even before this pandemic, we've been in a crisis of anxiety and depression being on the rise and teen suicide being on the rise. For many, the pandemic has made those preexisting mental health conditions even worse." • "I really want to encourage us all to really take stock of how we're doing, how our kids are doing and what maybe simple steps or changes we can make and our homes and our families for ourselves personally, to improve our mental health, not just so that we're not depressed or anxious, but so that we're actually flourishing or thriving." • "Sometimes the answers are right in front of us and we already kind of know them." • "Getting therapy was so helpful to help me reframe everything and really think through how I got myself to the point where I was and what I could do to get back to feeling better and being my best self." • "This year, this time, and this season are not a time to overachieve. For some of us, it's a really good time to just get the job done and be okay being average." • "I'd rather have a small group of people who have more interaction and back and forth." • "I invite you to join me in stepping back and prioritizing, perhaps picking just one project that you want to focus on this fall, whether it's a work related project, something in your family, or a relationship you want to work on, or maybe it's something for your own mental health. I feel like we all need to step back at this point and really prioritize, because as I've learned in the last week, most of what we do or gather around us will or can disappear. But those things that are really, really important are generally the things that you wouldn't be able to take in a fire."

But what we are ultimately striving for is for them to grow into good men. In this episode, Head of School at University School, Patrick Gallagher, provides some foundational support on character development for boys.

Brian is joined by Janel Baker for Theocon 2019, which was held at Messiah College on Sep 28. Janel teaches at Washetenaw Community College. This panel turned out to be more of a conversation due to the small number of folks who were there. But it was a fascinating conversation, and one of our participants gave a great anecdote to end the conversation with. Please make sure you listen to that.

Summer Series-8-28-19-Cultivating Character-Graymere panel discussion

Cultivating Character in the Classroom. My name is Renée LaRoche.  I am currently teaching Academic English at Lexington Christian Academy.  I graduated from LCA in 1992 and it’s wonderful to be back home. For the past fifteen years, I’ve taught in public charter, traditional public, and private schools.  I’ve had 3rd, 4th, 7th, and 8th grade classrooms independently, and when my children were young, I substituted for students in Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade. Regardless of what grade, setting, or role I have found myself, I’ve noticed how important it is for me to cultivate character in my classroom.  It is with that energy and passion that I find myself sharing with you today. Wherever you are, it is my hope that you’ll be able to take whatever works for you and leave the rest. Whether you’re a teacher, a colleague,  friend, family member, or if somehow you just happened to find this podcast.. I hope that it speaks to you in some way. Before I begin, so that you have some background understanding, I am currently teaching seven students who are enrolled in our Academic English and Cultural Immersion Program here at LCA,  Each of them are in eighth grade and are in their first or second year here in The States. A main focus of our program is to “develop fluency in English before moving on to Upper School.” My students take Academic English, American Studies, STEM, Arts, Music, and Physical Education.  The goal is to prepare them for success in an English-speaking college preparatory school. LCA is focused on cultivating one’s heart, mind, body, and soul.  The first unit of each school-year for me, in my classroom, concentrates on identifying, supporting, and communicating just that. I begin my year by ensuring that my classroom is designed for an optimal learning environment  I know that this might mean different things to each person who hears this… For some, it might mean that a classroom library includes all genres. To others, it might mean that flexible seating is available. Whatever systems or physical environments feel right to you, I support that.  I, personally, love color, comfort, and order. Therefore, my classrooms have always included brightness, organization, and flexible seating options. A tool that I’ve used to create sacred learning spaces for me is the book, “Creating the Peaceable Classroom” by Sandy Bothmer. Even if you’re not into Feng Shui or don’t find value in integrating music or movement into your daily routine, as a teacher. I think that we can all agree upon  the importance of setting a serene environment. I perceive that it’s a goal for all educators! :) I feel confident that you might find some strategies or advice that could yield amazing results, wherever you find yourself. After initial icebreaker activities are over, my students’ first academic creation is to write I AM poems in where they share who they are and who they wish to be with their class.  The website, “Read/Write/Think” has fantastic exemplars, which I’ve used over the years. That being said, being that this type of activity is so common for “back to school” or “get to know you” activities, a simple Google search would yield similar templates.   In the first week of school, after the routines are reviewed, I find that the most impactful area of focus is on character.  Having that as a baseline is truly foundational. Within a week of getting to know my students, I give them a list of 143 Character Trait Vocabulary Words.  If you teach, you might revise this list, according to your students. Being that my students are English Language Learners, when they receive this list, it’s overwhelming as their vocabulary is several grade levels behind native English Language students’.  I use Marzano’s six-step process to learn vocabulary as I have found that it promotes better retention and application. Therefore, I provide a description, explanation, or example for each of the words,

Maybe there's more to this whole identity thing after all. While our kids are the center of our world, how do we raise them to know they aren't the center of the world? Patrick and John go deeper to explore a parent's role in cultivating moral character, this time with some guidance from the book 8 Keys to Old School Parenting for Modern-Day Families by Michael Mascolo. They talk through why their generation often gets labeled as entitled and how they can prioritize virtues that avoid that sort of behavior in their own kids.

God's goodness is the source and foundation of your child's developing character. As they learn to value that goodness, their character will begin to be shaped by it; when they receive Christ and His Spirit, they will continue to walk in it. 

As teachers, our work is to create an environment in in our classroom where growth happens. Mr. Brubaker talks about some conditions that hinder and some conditions that nurture growth in character in our students.

Living the unlabeled life, requires us to shed stereotypes, cultivate character and begin to walk with conviction in our true identity.

Having started the New Year considering the significance of Walking with God, we continue this theme by considering the character we need to cultivate as we walk with Him.

Having started the New Year considering the significance of Walking with God, we continue this theme by considering the character we need to cultivate as we walk with Him.

The stories Jesus told in the Bible and great children's books can be instrumental in shaping a child to love what is beautiful, pursue what is good, and grasp what is true.
