When something hasn't been used in a while it can't get dusty and overtaken by cobwebs. "Laughter is the brush that sweeps away the cobwebs of your heart." Joy and laughter have a host of physical and emotional benefits. Even if you start by "fake laughing" it still produces benefits, because your brain doesn't know the difference. P.S. Laughter also makes you more attractive.

Laughter is just like medicine.

Do you have shameless audacity when it comes to asking God for what you need? Most people ask God and then sit and wait for something to happen. However, Mark 11:24 says, Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. We have to believe that everything we need is already ours. It's time to be importunate. It's time for some shameless audacity.
Think About It:
- Passivity is not spiritual.
- Don't sit and wait around. Take what God has already provided for you.
- You know God is able, but is He willing? Yes!

Stay away from "still" people. Still broke, still fat, and still unhappy. Still people are a sure sign of a complainer. Their attitude of discontent keeps them caught in the complaining loop. Complainers complain sideways. They're stuck because they don't confront the situation head-on, but they tell everyone else. You have three options: leave the situation, change the situation, or accept the situation. Don't be a "still" person. Get out of the complaining loop.
Think About It:
- The children of Israel turned an 11-day trip into 40 years due to their complaining.
- You can change your situation. Turn your complaining into gratitude.

When we are born, we are a blank canvas. Every moment we are painting the picture of our life. When we experience something negative, our mental paintbrush paints a skewed picture.

The power of death and life are in the power of the tongue. You can probably remember something painful someone said to you years ago. When you think about it, you can feel a visceral response.

In the late 1970's our mother came home from a Kenneth Copeland conference with a picture of Jesus Laughing. Up until then, all we'd ever seen was a somber Jesus. This picture changed our life. Religion taught that Jesus was serious, and if you did something wrong, he would "get you." However, this picture of Jesus cast Him in a new light. Jesus not only laughed, but He created laughter. Laughter is a gift. It is medicine, it makes you more attractive, and it is therapy. Go find the funny. Check out the picture of Jesus Laughing, and let it set you free.

We live in an entitlement culture that has turned generations into blamers, whiners, and haters. No one wants to be held accountable. We don't want to be told what to do. We believe we deserve a reward without really earning it, and we are so self-absorbed we have lost empathy for other people's pain. It is only in accepting accountability that we genuinely grow stronger. Pick an area in your life that is underperforming, and be honest about your shortcomings. It's really quite freeing.

When God designed you, He gave you an innate sense of right and wrong. However, over time, if we continue to ignore that still-small voice, and allow ourselves to get hardened we have a harder time hearing from God. Look around.

Our lives go in the direction of our most dominant thoughts. According to research, 90% of our daily thoughts are spent thinking about the past. Who hurt us? Why we got divorced? When we were fit. This is the reason you act the way you do, and it could be why your life looks the same as it did last year or even five years ago. It's time to flip the script and spend 90% of our thinking on our future.

Are you a control freak? Do you coerce, threaten, use scare tactics, or manipulate in order to get people to "behave?" If so, you are fighting a losing battle. Control tactics may work for a while, but eventually, people will do what they will do, and all you've done is prolong the inevitable. Control isn't really about other people, it's about you, because if they're okay, then I'm okay. It's time to get rid of the illusion of control because the only person you are required to control is ... you.

Is it more important what you do or why you do it? The reason we do something reveals who we really are. Our motives are either driven by pride or humility. Look at Jesus' motive. Scripture says, he humbled himself and went to the cross, whereas, Satan was filled with pride and was kicked out of heaven. Motives aren't always easy to detect. In fact, scripture says only God can truly determine our motive. Motives Matter. It's time for a motive check-up.

Anhedonia is the loss of joy and pleasure in life. This state of mind keeps us focusing on the negative about ourselves, others, and our future. Joy is a powerful force. It is not mere happiness, but a character trait of God himself, and the seed of joy is in you. In fact, without joy, we lose the strength to live out the life God has designed for us.

It's hard to truly hide what we believe. People listen to our words, but they react to our tone. In fact, 38% of communication comes from our tone. In a 2-year marriage study, the tone of voice was a better predictor of marital success than any other factor. Incredible! Did you know faith has a tone and so does fear? Faith sounds like winning and fear sounds like whining. If success continues to elude you check your tone. You may not realize your words and tone don't match. It's time to tune up your tone.

We have lost the ability to focus. Researchers say in every waking hour our mind is wandering 47% of the time. We think it's even more than that. Look at your life. Is it the same as it was last year or even five years ago? Are you living vicariously through someone else's social media account? Are you unhappy, overweight, bored, or depressed? Without a solid "why" it's easy to binge-watch Netflix, pound a box of Oreos, spend money mindlessly, or even have a good life ... but not a great one.So, you have to get serious about what YOU want? A healthier body, better relationships, more money ... a MIRACLE? If you really want to attain something it's going to take immersion: deep mental involvement. No one goes to the Olympics by playing pick-up ball on Saturdays. Stop harkening to the ding on your phone and start living your life. Decide what you want, and immerse yourself.
Think About It:
- If you need a miracle one scripture isn't going to get you healed.
- Frontload your life.
- Get your immersion working with a morning routine.

How do you see your world? If life is a pie, do you believe if someone gets a piece there is less for you? If so, you have a scarcity mentality. Some signs of scarcity thinking are comparison, envy, hoarding, and victimhood. However, abundance thinking is big, bold, and exciting. This type of thinker believes there is plenty to go around, and it comes from a deep sense of personal worth. On today's episode, we help you shift from scarcity to abundance thinking.

There is a divide in our country, and it isn't between Conservatives and Liberals but good and evil. There is a stranglehold on the language, and if you say something the Woke culture doesn't like, it's hell to pay. We've got to stand up! On this episode of the Soul Gym, we give multiple examples in Scripture and in Jesus' own behavior that He wasn't woke. In fact, He is the antithesis of wokeness. You'll know how woke you are by how offended you get at this episode. Put on your big girl pants and let's go!

Are you someone who desires to fix or rescue others? Do you believe if you let go the whole thing is going to fall apart? If this is you, you just might be a control freak. On this episode of the Soul Gym, we lay out the illusion of control, and discuss how you can begin to let people go. Control comes from fear: the fear of being alone, embarrassed, or made to look bad. Here's the kicker. At some point, we are fully responsible for ourselves, and that's the only person we can really control.

Do you have something that has died in your life? Well, Jesus is in the resurrection business. On Friday, it appeared He was a dead man walking, but on Sunday, He was a resurrected man walking.

On this episode of the Soul Gym, we rejoice in the fact that Jesus' death on the cross defeated death altogether, made us Joint Heirs with Him, and freed us from condemnation. Wow! If you've not accepted Christ now is the perfect time to do so. Let God resurrect your life!

What words do you use to describe yourself? When you're alone at night, what thoughts are running through your head? On this episode of Soul Gym Sisters, we talk about how we can look at life through a love lens or a fear filter. God designed us perfectly in His image, and we were created for love and to love, but sin entered the world. Instead, we often filter the world through fear, worry, and anger. God placed in each of us a desire to do something significant, but we will miss our destiny if we have ugly thoughts about ourselves. We can't hate ourselves and love others. Learn how to put on your love lens and attract good things into your life.

What does it mean to be a Christian? Does it mean being nice? Nope! On this episode of Soul Gym Sisters, we debunk the idea that "niceness" is somehow part of a Christian's DNA. Instead, we are to do good. Goodness is a part of God's character, and it means having an absolute commitment to good over evil and right over wrong. Look around at the world, it's time for Christians to be courageous.
3 Points to Ponder:
The anti-God movement is banking on us being nice. While we were being "nice" they removed God from our schools and aborted over 60 million babies. Jesus didn't play nice.

On this episode of Soul Gym Sisters, we bring on a representative of Generation Z to discuss what the young people are experiencing. We hit hard on how Jesus is the only answer, that God doesn't want us to just get through this, but that He wants us to rise above and live an abundant life.

On this episode of the Soul Gym Sisters, we discuss how most people walk around unaware of their thought life, operating on deeply entrenched limiting beliefs. Those negative voices speak loud and clear when we're under pressure. Just listen. You may hear things like, "You're not worthy." "You'll never lose the weight." "You are not lovable." These negative thoughts may be running areas of your life and you don't even know it, but you see the evidence. Good news! You can rewrite your story … when you tap into your Imagination Station!

On this episode of the Soul Gym Sisters we discuss the sad realization that most women are dissatisfied with their bodies. Our flabby thighs are an outward manifestation of our flabby thinking. Our desire to change is lost when we focus on changing our behavior instead of changing our thought life. So, we apply the 5 health-related components of physical fitness: body composition, flexibility, muscular strength, cardiorespiratory fitness, and muscular endurance and train you how to apply them to your mental fitness. It's time to get fit inside and out!

On this episode of Soul Gym Sisters we discuss how unhealthy thoughts create limiting beliefs: a belief that is constraining you in some way. Limiting beliefs negatively impact our lives by blinding us to opportunity, producing results we don't want, and keeping us "safely" living far below our potential. Limiting beliefs must be identified and challenged, so we can live strong, healthy, and prosperous!

On this episode of the Soul Gym Sisters we discuss how everyone wants to get in shape, but over half of all gym memberships go unused. The struggle with weight (or anything for that matter) isn't found at the local YMCA, in a fat-burner, or in white-knuckled determination. The answer is found deep within your soul. So, step into the Soul Gym and get that flabby thinking into shape. Train your inner strength, and you can transform your health, wealth, and relationships.

People spit out the reverent sounding mantra, "God is in control" when life's difficult questions cannot be answered. The Soul Gym Sisters expound on the Sovereignty of God (supreme power and authority) as revealed through His love and not control. God created the heavens and the earth, made humanity in His own image, put the laws of gravity, thermodynamics, and sowing and reaping in motion. In His sovereignty, He forgives, heals, and delivers. God has armed us with His Word, placed a seed of faith in us, opened up communication, and gave us Free Will. You choose!

The Soul Gym Sisters discuss the motivation behind the choices we make. When we feel we stuck we believe we "have to" do something, and when we live with a "have to" attitude we live as though someone else is controlling us ... victims. The "have to" attitude is rooted in fear, afraid that something bad is going to happen, so we keep doing what we've convinced ourselves we "have to" do. But the people who live with a "want to" attitude live satisfied and content. The are energized, creative, and free. They are the victors of their life. We are always faced with a choice. Make a decision to quit the "have to" or change your attitude. Find what you're passionate about , tap into your God-given gifts, and live with an attitude of "want to."
