  • If you have ever heard of the saying, “watch the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves,” then you know it’s the little things that make the difference.

    It’s the little things, the small things, that set the stage for us to better handle the bigger things.

    This isn’t just some cute saying, this is a sound Biblical principle.

    Today’s guest and I take a deep dive into understanding how the “small things” actually make the difference and even set the stage for what’s to come for your life.

    Blessed Nation, meet Andy Andrews.

    Andy is a master story teller. His ability to effectively communicate his message is evident in the fact that he has written over 25 books, several of which have become New York Times bestsellers.

    As a renown speaker and teacher, Andy is sought out to help others achieve extraordinary results for their life.

    And today…..

    We get to pick Andy’s brain on topics like;

    Why should we challenge conventional wisdom on why the small things really do matter in life?How the little things create such huge impact in our walk in Christ.We discuss “the gap..” and how these perceived little things in life set the stage for the life we are creating.How we can use the ‘little’ things’ to solve the bigger problems we might be facing in life.What is the better question we should be asking; Why or How?

  • Sometimes in our walk with Christ, it’s not so much what’s going on in our own life as it is experiences that others are going through, that are drawing us closer to God.

    Sometimes it’s a child, sometimes it’a spouse, and sometimes it’s someone we barely know. Our God truly is an awesome God and he can use any situation as an opportunity to draw you closer to Him.

    So, what is God calling you to?

    What is God calling you to do?

    How is obedience preparing you for the next season of your life?Can you position yourself for God’s peace?How to keep going during a season of struggle.Why being intentional during a season of change is critical.

  • Marriage seems to be this always moving process of learning and change, and this creates and opportunity to create breakthrough in our marriage. Often times learning and change is predicated by questions; sometimes they are tough questions. It’s those tough questions that move us to take a personal inventory of where things stand in our marriage. It’s those tough questions that helped today’s guest Phil Potts, move his marriage from a 2 to a 10.

    What questions are you asking that create a positive impact on your marriage?What questions can you ask that open the door to having a marriage that functions more like a 10 than a 2?How does duct tape become a foundational tool for your marriage and not just a quick fix to hold it together?How does John 21 and the story of Jesus, fish, nets, and his disciples help us to move toward an abundant life?Phil’s recommended book: “Love and War: Find your way to something beautiful in your marriage.” by John & Stasi Eldredge: Listen to and audio version of it free at http://audibletrial.com/blessedCheck out Phil’s free gift at http://renegadegentlemen.com/blessedsupport the show

  • When tragedy strikes in life, sometimes we ask ourselves; why has this happened to me, or how could something like this happen to me. The questions that we ask ourselves especially after a difficult or even tragic time in life, sets us on a path looking for answers. The path you go down will often times be established by the questions you ask. Let’s be sure to ask questions that lead us down a path that is in line with our desired outcome. That’s exactly what Aaron Walker did. After a tragic accident in his life, he was faced with some tough questions, that lead him down a path of self discovery and significance. Join us today in episode #32 as we visit with Aaron Walker, on his journey to “Living a Life of Significance.”Here are a few more of the topics we will be diving into.How a daily routine helps us to move toward accomplishment.Are your words moving you in a direction that helps you or hurts you?Why is Romans 8:28 such a powerful truth in the midst of tragedy?What is the one thing you must ‘remember’ to if you want success?
