In this introduction to the new season we look at how people understand the gospel. Do we look at the scripture one verse at a time in isolation or do we see connections with others verses and stories. There are two ways to link scriptures and that is through the journey back to God or being the disciple of Christ. Do you know why the Jews accepted Jesus answer on the greatest commandment?

Wisdom is the ability to use knowledge to benefit our lives. Logic is being able to recognise consequences that will happen from choices we make now. Don't let The Void rob you of your strenght trying to fix things that you can't control. Instead use your wisdom to do what matters most even if it's hard.

You are not on one big journey in life that is all encompassing but rather you are on a series of journeys that move you in certain directions. You will find that each journey matches up with your five main priorities. By focusing on the first step you are able to clearly see the stepping stones and challenges to it. Only focus on the first step of your most important journey while you are starting off. Focusing on to many journeys at the start feeds the void and takes all your inner strenght.
Do you sink into the past or do you build on it. The past is a difficult topic to discuss as we are forced to deal with things we have run away from. Making peace with the past isn't forgetting it, nor is it overlooking it. Making peace with the past is overcoming the guilt and shame we feel from either things we did, or were done to us, and then facing the consequences that are in our lives now. No person is so broken that the can't be healed. Making peace is about you not others. Leave the burdens of yesterday behind on your journey to tomorrow.

In this episode we look at the difference between wants and needs. We need to organise around our needs not our wants. We talk about what is our number one priority. If we put our inner strenght towards our needs then it will go further than putting it to our wants.
In this episode we look at how people see you compared to who you are. We look at different versions of yourself, and how, when we change, we update ourselves to a newer version. We also look at some of the reason we fail. Do you know the difference between traits that are a part of you, and traits you have learned.
