Summary

How can we live more in the moment? Besides, the here-and-now is a gift, which is why it's called being "present" (see what we did there?!?)

Philippians 4 models for us what it looks like to truly live in the present and receive His peace, which surpasses understanding. However, due to our phones, to-do lists, and stress levels, our minds leave our bodies, leaving us the inability seek calm, pray, and live in peace.

In this episode, we talk about how to get back into our bodies in moments of overwhelm, so that we can shift the atmosphere of our home and cultivate a spiritual growth environment for our kids.

Here are some highlights:
  • How to notice when things feel "off" and discern the signs of the times
  • Practical ways to get back into your body in the here-and-now
  • The calming of your brain and the gift it is to your children when you live in the present
  • The power of speaking truth and gratitude aloud
  • Getting in the routine of trusting God more than you trust yourself
  • Understanding gentleness as your "power under control"
