BE[different] Podcast: Recent Episodes
Bryan & Shayla Moffitt
We invite you into our living room to have real conversations about people being different. We will talk about real life, everyday stuff. Things like marriage, parenting, and why doing life together is always the best option.
On today's episode, we celebrate a big day within our marriage story and in Bryan's story. Just a couple of days ago on January 30th, we celebrated 14 years of sobriety for Bryan. We share what the journey was like before Bryan was healed from his alcohol addiction and the pain that Shayla experienced. Bryan shares how he surrendered his addiction and encourages those battling an addiction with three practical ways to fight off the temptation. If you or a loved one are battling an addiction, we are here to help you and we believe in sobriety for you or your loved one.

On today's episode, we share three ways to improve communication in your marriage. Whether you find yourself struggling to connect as a couple or you feel your communication is pretty solid, we share how you can begin having deeper conversations. We begin our relationships by spending hours upon hours talking to each other, learning about each other, and connecting with each other. As the years past in a marriage, often times communication suffers and it is easy to point fingers at the other spouse. Take a listen to this week's conversation to overcome that wedge that is common and infuse a newly found connection into your stagnant marriage.

We can use this time as a closure and end to things we need to eliminate from our lives. Take a listen to part 1 and be sure to come back week when we finish with part 2.

On today's episode, we talk through when it's okay to say "yes" to our kids. For us, we tend to say "no" or "maybe later" more often than "yes". However, we are working on this and have become better by applying four questions when faced to make a decision. By asking ourselves these four questions, we are now able to answer "yes" more often to create memories for our kids. We are confident that they will help you in your parenting too. Bryan shares a story about how not buying cotton candy for our kids made a lasting impact on how he responds to our kids when they ask for something. We call it the "cotton candy effect".

On today's episode, we conclude our talk about miracles. This is one topic that is probably more real than most of us want to believe or admit. For some, things are difficult. Maybe it’s your marriage. Maybe it’s a loss of a loved one. Maybe it’s a dark secret you’ve lived with for most of your life or an addiction that just won’t stop attacking you. For many, you desperately need a miracle.
We talk through the last miracle that Jesus performed in the book of John. We are going to have a real conversation in our living room as we read these miracles that happened thousands of years ago to see if we can learn anything from them, be inspired by them, and to gain some hope from them.
Regardless of where you are at on your spiritual journey, our prayer is that you can see yourself in our conversation today. We want to encourage you and challenge you exactly where you are and to urge you on to your next step.

On today's episode, we continue our talk about miracles. This is one topic that is probably more real than most of us want to believe or admit. For some, things are difficult. Maybe it’s your marriage. Maybe it’s a loss of a loved one. Maybe it’s a dark secret you’ve lived with for most of your life or an addiction that just won’t stop attacking you. For many, you desperately need a miracle.
We talk through two more of the miracles that Jesus performed in the book of John. We are going to have a real conversation in our living room as we read these miracles that happened thousands of years ago to see if we can learn anything from them, be inspired by them, and to gain some hope from them.
Regardless of where you are at on your spiritual journey, our prayer is that you can see yourself in our conversation today. We want to encourage you and challenge you exactly where you are and to urge you on to your next step.

However, it's important that we look back to celebrate victories along the way.

On today's episode, we continue our series titled "It's Not What You Think". This week we talk about your past. We all have a past. Things that happened to us, things that we did, or things that we did to others that can hold us back. Rather than let our past define us, we can use the past to motivate us to make a change. In order to look forward to the future, we can reflect on the past to not make the same mistakes.

On today's episode, we continue our series titled "It's Not What You Think". This week we talk about giving and living with open hands of generosity. Often times we get it wrong. We think or believe that the church just wants our money. That is anything but the truth. God doesn't want your money, he wants your heart. When we begin to live with open hands of generosity, invest in the local church, and experience real change within our hearts, we can give with faith which turns into giving faithfully.

On today's episode, we continue our series titled "It's Not What You Think". This week we talk about the impact of the local church. The church is more than just four walls and a building. The church is the group of people inside the building, gathering together, and passionately following Jesus. This week builds off of last week's episode, "It's Not What You Think: Jesus". The church can be a place of healing and purpose for you. You can find authentic friendships with people who truly care for you and care about you. Many of us have been burned by the church but we hope that this episode will encourage you to give church another chance.

On today's episode, we begin a new series titled "It's Not What You Think". This week we talk about why following Jesus changes everything. The name brings different emotions for different people. For some, the name Jesus brings comfort and peace. But for many, the name Jesus brings questions and hesitation. Our desire is that the name of Jesus stirs something deep within you and a desire to learn more about him. He is waiting for you to turn to him with every breath, every thought, and every action.

On today's episode, we talk roles within a marriage. When roles are defined, it can often times form a wedge in your relationship. Should the wife always do the laundry and the husband always mow the yard? The answer is no. You need to do things together, intertwined, and without roles set in stone. Take a listen to hear how to avoid this within your marriage so you are on the same page when it comes to tasks within your marriage.

On today's episode, we talk about tension within a marriage. Today is part 1 as we talk through a list of “when things get tough within a marriage, the world says…”. There must be an emphasis on “we” within your marriage rather than “me” within your marriage. Today’s episode can be a game-changer for your marriage. Begin to look at fighting together, for your marriage rather than fighting against each other, in your marriage. It's vital to have this mindset in order to have the marriage you were destined to have.

On today's episode, we share two statements that will change your marriage. If you find your marriage in a dry season, we discuss ways to bring life back to your relationship. Marriage can become very routine and mundane because we get up, do the same thing, go to bed, and do it all over again the next day.
We also talk about the challenge of buying gifts, especially for Valentine's Day. However, we have the perfect gift for you this year.

On today's episode, we talk about grace. Grace is one of those words that is thrown around Christian culture quite a bit. It’s easy to talk about it but is it easy to receive it? We break down the lyrics of the old hymn “Amazing Grace” to answer the question, “What’s so amazing about grace?” You might find yourself lost. You are aimlessly searching for something to fulfill a deep longing. Or you might be aimlessly running away from your past. We talk about being found by Jesus, our eyes opened by Jesus, and our longing fulfilled by Jesus.

On today's episode, we discuss the importance of being involved in the local church. For many, a negative church experience in the past impacts your view of church.

On today's episode, we talk about the advent season. Regardless of when you begin to celebrate Christmas each year, we can all agree that it's December 1st and it’s Christmas time. Today we are going to talk about expectations even in the waiting and inviting Jesus into whatever you are going through. Shayla shares a real-life example of how she encouraged our daughter by inviting Jesus into the worry.
Advent simply means arrival. The arrival of something. The arrival of Jesus as a baby born in a manger. However, we can also anticipate the arrival of Jesus in our everyday. The anticipation of Jesus. The expectation of Jesus. Jesus has moved in the past, he will move again.

On today's episode, we talk about how most of us fall into one of two categories.
- I am a professional worrier
- Worrying isn't something I lose much sleep over
Before we jump into that discussion, we talk about last week's election and the unsteady state of our country. During such times, we must find joy in little things like Shayla does in Almond Joy candy bars. We share the joy we found in a day of geocaching with the kids. We then share the hope we found in Psalm 46:10 through Sunday's message by our pastor, Craig Groeschel at Life.Church.
You can check it out here: In God We Trust.
When we find ourselves in a season of worry, some of us keep it inside, others verbally express it in an emotional burst. Each of us battle worry from time to time. There are minor worries and major worries. While in that season of worry, we can turn to Scripture to help us get through it. We can find direct hope from the red letters, the words of Jesus, in the Bible. We break down Matthew 6:25-34 and share 7 reasons to not worry.
