In The Master’s Program, we are tenacious about helping people find their Kingdom Calling. We call it a LifeMission. God specifically designed you for a purpose. The DNA of that purpose is in your design: your talents, passions, and desired outcomes. But pay attention to the fact that a LifeMission is aimed at an …
I have never seen an angel, but many have told me they have. People usually tell me someone somehow came out of the blue and helped or lifted them up. “It must have been an angel!” they might say. In Biblical times, angels were ordinary. In both the Old Testament and the New Testament, angels …
It happens in the church often. It’s announced that someone has cancer. A prayer chain is formed. The meal train begins. The devotion and concern is palpable. It’s a BIG deal. But, I believe the true cancer of the Body of Christ is unforgiveness. If we took Jesus at His word, our passion to see unforgiveness …
Life has good times and bad times. Circumstances are coming at you every day. Some are truly difficult. Most negative circumstances are created by negative experiences with people. Others are caused by external factors that are out of our control. You can’t change your circumstances, but you can shift your mindset in response to them. I completed The Master’s Program …
Approximately 73.6% of adults, aged 20 and older, are considered either overweight or obese. Also, according to the CDC, only about 24% of Americans regularly exercise. Could there be a correlation?

Transgender is someone who believes they are a different sex or born in the wrong body. Their belief is strong enough to lead many to transition. Transitioning is the process of surgically reconstructing the body …
It’s a common internal struggle between what we call “the flesh” and the spirit. The desires of the body don’t seem to be aligned with the desires of the spirit. What if they could? Don’t kill the innate interest to serve yourself. Instead, rewire your thinking so that you naturally run toward self-denial as a self-interested behavior. Jesus …
We just had a massive storm in Santa Barbara. Many were negatively impacted. Storms generally don’t have an upside. Life’s storms are different. They are essential because of the present opportunities. Ryan Holiday, of the Daily Stoic, wrote The Obstacle Is the Way.

It’s a new year. We commonly reflect on the past and plan for the next. What do we have to show for 2023? Last week, Noah challenged us to “step on the scale.” He gave us TMP areas to measure in our body, mind, soul, and spirit and our roles: spouse, parent, worker, and steward. He asked if we …
