Daryl speaks about how a season of hardship is only temporal but you can make it permanent if you think it ought to be. Renewing your mind is how to renew the season.

1 Samuel 11:1-15

Sometimes the right choice is also the hardest one. In our daily prayer and devotional, we are reminded that as parents, spouses, friends, or leaders, God often calls us to take steps of faith that don’t align with the world’s expectations. Saying “no” to conformity and “yes” to God’s way can feel uncomfortable in the moment, but His Word reminds us that His will is always good, pleasing, and perfect. Conviction is often the Spirit’s way of guiding us into what is best. Romans 12:2 reminds us that transformation happens as we renew our minds in God’s truth. When we consistently lean into Scripture, pray for discernment, and trust His leading, He equips us with courage to walk forward—even when the path feels uncertain. Faith-filled steps may not always be easy, but they are always worth it. When we choose obedience, we not only honor God but also position ourselves and those we love to receive His best. Today's Bible Reading: "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." – Romans 12:2 Key Takeaways Conviction is an invitation to step away from conformity and into God’s will. Renewing our minds with Scripture helps us discern His direction clearly. Faith often requires uncomfortable but courageous steps of obedience. God’s plans are always for our good, even when they feel hard in the moment. Let’s Pray Together Lord God, You are the way, and Your way is perfect. Help me not to conform to the world but to be renewed daily in Your Word. Give me courage to follow through when I feel convicted, trusting that Your plan is good, pleasing, and perfect. Thank You for guiding me and walking with me as I take steps of faith. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Point it the right way, and you'll build strength, resilience, and purpose.In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett and Nick break down the concept of mindset selection—the truth that you have the power to choose how you think, how you respond, and how you grow. Instead of being driven by emotions or circumstances, you can deliberately select a mindset that produces victory.This conversation is raw, practical, and full of fire. From biblical wisdom to SEAL-tested mental toughness, you'll learn how to recognize destructive thought patterns, reject passivity, and build the mindset of a man who refuses to settle.

Episode Summary Many believers start strong then quietly stop when it gets uncomfortable. This episode reframes quitting as a learned habit you can unlearn by renewing your mind in God's Word. Dr. Leelo Bush walks through brain science, Scripture, and practical tools to choose commitment over comfort and finish the work God assigned to you. What You'll Learn Why quitting often feels like relief (and why that's deceptive). How your “primitive brain” rewards escape and how to retrain it. A simple plan to turn commitment into a covenant. Practical steps: identify excuses, if-then plans, embrace B-minus work, track reps. When a short “reset” helps without abandoning your calling. Quotable Moment (literal) “Quitting sneaks in disguised as relief, but in reality it robs us of growth, joy, and the results God wants for our lives.”    Scriptures Mentioned James 1:4 — perseverance completes maturity. Romans 12:2 — be transformed by renewing your mind.   Resources PCCCA Courses: https://pccca.org/courses/ Healing the Grieving Brain Guide: https://griefcoachu.com/healing/ The Comprehensive Christian Coach Handbook (Dr. Leelo Bush): Amazon link Courageous Christian Coaching Tribe (Facebook group): facebook.com/groups/courageouschristiancoachingtribe

Looking for Revival 1 Kings 22:1-2, 10-13; 23:25   LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD. Revive them in our day, in our time, make them known; in wrath remember mercy. - Habakkuk 3:2, NIV   Everyone likes 2 Chronicles 7:14 – “If my people who are called by my name…” – because it promises what we deeply crave: revival. But revival isn't just emotional fire. It's not hype. It's not a nostalgia trip back to better days. Revival is when God invades the ruins of his people's sin with his mercy, his Word, and his Spirit — and makes us new again. We're walking through the lives of three kings — Hezekiah, Jehoshaphat, and today, Josiah — who each experienced this kind of God-driven revival. These were moments when God turned the lights back on, not because the people earned it, but because he remembered mercy. In the generation after Solomon, the country split in half, north and south, and the northern kingdom of Israel moved into stark idolatry under their rebel King Jeroboam. He built an alternative Temple for idolatrous worship, set up an alternative priesthood, and listened to false prophets. Right in the middle of that, God sent a true but unnamed prophet to Israel to announce that centuries later, he would raise up a king who would put the finishing touches on the demolition of this idolatry and renew the covenant between God and his people. The prophet said his name would be Josiah.   That's the King we are looking at today. He was the last great reformer before Judah collapsed. His story isn't just inspiring — it's prophetic. His name was called out centuries before his birth, a rare mark of divine intention. God raised him up for this moment: to tear down false worship, to rediscover the Word, and to renew the covenant — a picture of how God revives his people. 1 Kings 13:1-2 “By the word of the LORD a man of God came from Judah to Bethel, as Jeroboam was standing by the altar to make an offering. 2 By the word of the LORD he cried out against the altar: “Altar, altar! This is what the LORD says: ‘A son named Josiah will be born to the house of David…That same day the man of God gave a sign: “This is the sign the LORD has declared: The altar will be split apart and the ashes on it will be poured out.” NIV   Let's look at the three movements in Josiah's story: 1. Discovering the Book 2. Repenting from Sin 3. Renewing the Covenant   2 Chronicles 7:14 is a beautiful promise from God made to Solomon when he dedicated the newly built Temple in Jerusalem. It wasn't just beautiful - it was essential. God's people would frequently stray from their faith and forsake the Lord. Yet God was also merciful, granting revival, reformation, and rescue from their enemies to his people time and time again. In the text before us today, we see the fulfillment of God's promise as King Josiah comes to the throne as an eight-year-old boy, near the end of Judah's national life, leading a country that has abandoned God, even though God never abandoned it.   I. Discovering the Book - 2 Kings 22:10-13 At age 26, Josiah's workers are cleaning out the Temple when they find something that should never have been lost — the Book of the Law. God's Word had been buried. Forgotten. Tossed aside. But once it was read aloud, everything changed. The spark of revival always starts with rediscovering God's Word. The Bible isn't magic, but when God's people stop ignoring it and start listening to it — deeply, personally, humbly — revival becomes possible. The Word cuts. It convicts. It calls. You can't have a revival without the Book. If the Word has gathered dust in your life — if it's been shoved in a drawer behind the hustle and noise — there's no revival without opening it again.   II. Repenting from Sin - 2 Kings 22:11-13 Josiah's response is immediate and raw. He tears his clothes — a public act of grief and repentance. He realizes that God's wrath is hanging over them, not because God is unjust, but because the people have rebelled. And Josiah doesn't just repent personally. He leads the entire nation in repentance. He cleanses the land of idols, smashing them to dust. He tears down altars built for false gods. He doesn't manage sin — he destroys it. Real revival always comes with repentance. That means naming our sin, turning from it, and refusing to make peace with what God has condemned. Is there something in your life that needs to be smashed, not managed? Revival isn't just singing louder — it's living differently.   III. Renewing the Covenant - 2 Kings 23:1-3, 21-22 Josiah calls the people together and publicly renews the covenant — their sacred agreement with God. He restores worship, reinstitutes the Passover, and re-centers the nation on Yahweh. This wasn't just a ceremonial act — it was national restoration. Revival isn't just about cleaning house; it's about reclaiming God's promises and re-aligning our lives under his rule. God made a covenant with his people. Even when they broke it, he didn't walk away. Josiah leads them back into it. But here's where the story takes a turn. As beautiful as Josiah's revival was, it didn't last. After his death, Judah fell back into sin. Within a few years, Babylon invaded, the Temple was destroyed, and the people were exiled. Even the best king couldn't stop judgment from coming. Josiah was a good king, a faithful king — but he wasn't the King. The King of the New Covenant Centuries later, another young man from the line of David would rise, who was also foretold by the prophets — not to repair a broken temple, but to become the Temple. Not to renew the old covenant, but to establish a new one in his blood. Jesus is the greater Josiah. Where Josiah rediscovered the Book, Jesus is the Word made flesh. Where Josiah tore his clothes in grief, Jesus was torn for us. Where Josiah renewed the covenant with sacrifice, Jesus became the sacrifice that secures the covenant forever. Josiah brought revival for a moment. Jesus brings renewal for eternity. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus offers a better covenant, sealed by his blood, written on our hearts by the Spirit, not just in a scroll or temple. He doesn't just clean the outside — he gives us new hearts, making us the temple. “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” (2 Corinthians 5:17) Conclusion: Looking for Revival Habakkuk's prayer is ours: “Repeat your deeds in our day, Lord… in wrath remember mercy.”   We don't need to manufacture revival — we need to seek the King who brings it. Let's follow Josiah's example: ● Return to the Word. ● Repent from sin. ● Renew our covenant commitment to Jesus.   Let's NOT put our hope in a political figure, not in emotional highs, not in religious nostalgia — let's put our hope in the King of the New Covenant, Jesus Christ, who revives the dead, restores the broken, and renews all things.   Response Questions: ● Where has God's Word been lost in your life? ● What sins are you managing instead of repenting from? ● Are you living under the old way, or under the new covenant with Jesus?   Let's pray for revival — not just around us, but in us — through Christ our King.

Are you overdue for a spiritual check-up? If you’ve been wondering how to know if you’re growing spiritually or what the Bible says about renewing your mind, this devotional will help you reflect on your faith and realign your heart with God’s Word. In Romans 12:2, Paul reminds us not to conform to the world’s standards but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Yet, it’s easy to compare ourselves to others—whether friends, celebrity Christians, or social media influencers—instead of measuring our hearts against Scripture. Drawing from Paul’s humility and honest self-reflection, this devotional encourages us to stop competing, stop comparing, and start aligning our lives with God’s standards. True spiritual growth comes when we consistently examine ourselves and allow Scripture—not the culture around us—to shape our transformation. ✨ Highlights Why spiritual check-ups matter — Regularly examine your faith, attitudes, and heart alignment with God’s Word (2 Corinthians 13:5). Comparison is a trap — Measuring ourselves against others can lead to pride, shame, or complacency. Paul’s example of humility — Despite his influence, Paul called himself the “worst of sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15), reminding us we all need grace. Renewing the mind — Transformation begins when we filter our thoughts, habits, and actions through God’s Word rather than worldly standards. Pressing toward the goal — Focus on Jesus and the calling He’s placed on your life, not the noise around you (Philippians 3:14).

He explained that science and faith both affirm our ability to change and grow—our brains are "neuroplastic," meaning they can be reshaped by our thoughts and choices. God has given us the spiritual DNA to become more like Christ, and we are called to take every thought captive, replacing negativity with the truth of God's Word.Key practical steps included:Regularly reading and meditating on Scripture to shape our thinking.Taking time to quiet our minds and listen for God's voice.Speaking God's promises over our lives and others.Remembering that our identity is rooted in Christ, not in fear or past mistakes.Dr. Imes encouraged us to see ourselves as God sees us—loved, forgiven, and empowered to live out His will.

In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with GS Youngblood—author of The Masculine in Relationship and The Art of Embodiment for Men. GS brings decades of experience coaching men on leadership in marriage, parenting, and personal growth through his Masculine Blueprint framework. Together, we unpack what it really means to live from your masculine core while creating safety, connection, and trust in your relationships.   We talk about balancing firmness with heart, why composure beats control, and how to provide structure without domination. GS also dives into the importance of embodiment practices for men, how to stop reacting and start responding, and the role of clarity in building intimacy with your partner. This is a conversation about leadership that goes beyond the surface—helping men shift from fear and reactivity into grounded presence and intentional direction.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge movement and introduction to GS Youngblood [1:56] - GS's bestselling books and the Masculine Blueprint framework [2:28] - What it means to live from your masculine core [3:08] - Why composure is more powerful than control in leadership [5:03] - Growing up with an intense father and lessons for parenting [6:23] - Balancing firmness and love with your kids [7:30] - Relational masculinity: strength with empathy [9:21] - The artful blend of clarity and heart in family leadership [12:17] - Clarity as the foundation of effective masculine leadership [13:33] - The “nice guy” trap and why men seek external validation [15:10] - Why grounding your nervous system must come before clarity [16:57] - Daily embodiment practices for staying present and calm [20:06] - Breathwork, meditation, and awareness as tools for men [23:12] - How embodiment reduces fixation and increases intimacy [27:59] - The energetic flow between men and women in communication [30:08] - Renewing curiosity in long-term marriage and intimacy [32:18] - Why women crave being known and understood [33:42] - Emotional safety as the gateway to sexual connection [38:15] - The three parts of the Masculine Blueprint explained [40:07] - Respond vs. react: staying grounded under pressure [44:14] - “You may not be the problem, but you are the solution.” [45:16] - Providing structure without domination—clarity plus inclusion [48:32] - The spectrum of leadership: tenderness to directness [50:01] - Sexual tension, rejection, and how men can hold ground [52:11] - Why sexuality is vulnerable for men and how to own it [54:31] - Avoiding the “hurt boy” response in relationships [56:00] - When women need men to be bigger than their moods [57:44] - Staying grounded when intimacy needs don't align [1:00:12] - The power of presence in building intimacy over time     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Composure Beats Control True masculine leadership isn't about domination—it's about staying grounded, calm, and clear even when emotions run high. 2. Firmness With Heart Creates Trust Children and partners thrive when a man brings clarity and structure without fear. The combination of strength and empathy builds long-term respect. 3. Embodiment Grounds the Nervous System Daily practices like breathwork and meditation keep men from being reactive, helping them lead from presence instead of anxiety or reactivity. 4. Curiosity Keeps Intimacy Alive Long-term relationships require ongoing curiosity. When women feel known and understood, emotional safety deepens—and so does sexual connection. 5. Men Are the Solution Even if you aren't the cause of conflict, you can choose to be the solution. Leadership means stepping up with clarity, direction, and presence to create connection.       LINKS & RESOURCES   GS Youngblood Website: https://gsyoungblood.com The Masculine in Relationship Book: https://gsyoungblood.com/books The Alliance and Boardroom - thedadedge.com/mastermind Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast Join The Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance 25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions       If this episode gave you new insight into marriage, masculinity, or fatherhood, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

Brooke is joined by Dr. Ryan Topping, a former Mennonite who embraced the Catholic Faith at Oxford.

He is the Founder and Executive Director of the Gregory the Great Institute and a recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal.

Renewing our minds is both a spiritual command and a biological possibility.  Since we can't always trust our mind and inner voice, it's important to be consistent in planting Scripture in our mind, as the Word reflects the person of God, who we know to be eternal, holy, and trustworthy.    

In a world that moves fast and values quick fixes, Proverbs offers timeless wisdom for everyday life. These short, powerful sayings aren't just catchy—they're God's guidance for wise living. From relationships to decisions, money to character, Proverbs gives us truths that stick. Like a hit song that plays on repeat, these verses shape how we live, work, and love. This summer, we'll explore how ancient wisdom continues to resonate today and why trusting God's way leads to a life that endures.
