Immanuel God with us. That is his promise to us, that he is with us. Why then is it so hard for us to see, feel, or even sense his presence. Maybe we haven't been taught, or maybe we don't slow down long enough to notice. Regardless of the reason I promise you, it is us not him. So how do we live this life in a way that is with him because He is with us.

Our brains weren’t designed just to problem solve, or acquire knowledge. Truth is, they were first, and foremost, created to give us the ability to live in relationship, and appreciation is the current on which they run. And it keeps your RCs ON and humming. Appreciation involves the recognition, enjoyment, and full understanding of the value of something that you can touch, taste, see, hear, or feel, (nature), or have experienced.
Living in a constant state of appreciation is crucial for our own wellbeing and the deepening of our relationships.
Join Tennison & Ginelle as they discuss the power of Interactive Appreciation. Listen in as they explain what it is and share how this simple practice changed their lives. Hear stories of how others have been impacted by practicing this simple tool.

"LIFE UNDER, OVER, FROM, and FOR GOD each seeks to use God to achieve some other goal. God is seen as a means to an end. For example, LIFE FROM GOD uses him to supply our material desires. LIFE OVER GOD uses him as the source of principles or laws. LIFE UNDER GOD tries to manipulate God through obedience to secure blessings and avoid calamity. And LIFE FOR GOD uses him and his mission to gain a sense of direction and purpose.”
“But LIFE WITH GOD is different because its goal is not to use God, its goal is God. He ceases to be a device we employ or a commodity we consume. Instead God himself becomes the focus of our desire. But before we can really desire God, we must have a clear understanding of who he is and what he is like. The reason most people gravitate to one of the other four postures is because they’ve never received a clear vision of who God is, and so they settle for something less.”

In this episode Tennison and Ginelle conversation centers around what living a LIFE WITH GOD looks like, presented in the book 'WITH: Reimagining The Way You Relate to God' by Skye Jethani. The LIFE WITH GOD means treasuring him above all else. The goal is not to use God, the goal is God. The other four postures use God as a means to an end. Those with an incomplete or tainted view of God either want to use Him or dismiss HimGod is not a device we use or a commodity we consume. God, himself is the focus of our desire. But if we don't have a clear understanding of who he is and what he is like we will gravitate to one of the other four postures. Those with a full clear picture of God want nothing less than to be with him. Once we see and understand who and what God truly is, He will cease to be how we acquire our treasure, and become our treasure. Listen in as Tennison & Ginelle begin this compelling discussion.

In this episode Tennison and Ginelle conversation centers around what living a LIFE FOR GOD looks like, presented in the book 'WITH: Reimagining The Way You Relate to God' by Skye Jethani. LIFE FOR GOD is the fourth posture that Skye Jethani talks about. The LIFE FOR GOD posture is motivated by a fear of living an insignificant life. The mission or the task becomes the center of the Christian life. Join Tennison and Ginelle as they begin to untangle this very popular stance in the life of christians. If not checked the mission controls almost everything: time, relationships, health, spiritual depth, ethics, and convictions. In advanced stages, missionalism means doing whatever it takes to solve the problem. In its worst iteration, the end always justifies the means. The family goes; health is sacrificed; integrity is jeopardized; God connection is limited. The goal is to do this life WITH God.If you have been impacted by what you have heard in this podcast and would like to support us in our mission to help people experience healthier & deeper relationships with God, themselves, and others, go to: tableandwell.org/#donate

In this episode Tennison and Ginelle conversation centers around what living a LIFE FROM GOD looks like, presented in the book 'WITH: Reimagining The Way You Relate to God' by Skye Jethani. LIFE FROM GOD is the third posture that Skye Jethani talks about. People that live in this posture believe that God exists to supply what we need or desire. Receiving God’s gifts is the entirety of our relationship with Him. They have reduced God to a Genie to grant is our desires. Living here Feeds into our selfish nature, it cuts off the redemptive purpose of pain, and in our pursuit of distraction by comfort we forget the One who alone is able to deliver us, and we seek lesser things. When this happens we believe that what we want is want God wants for us. We then truly miss out on the good gifts that the Father wants to give us.If you have been impacted by what you have heard in this podcast and would like to support us in our mission to help people experience healthier & deeper relationships with God, themselves, and others, go to: tableandwell.org/#donate

In this episode Tennison and Ginelle conversation centers around what living a LIFE OVER GOD looks like, presented in the book 'WITH: Reimagining The Way You Relate to God' by Skye Jethani. LIFE OVER GOD dismisses religion as irrational superstition and seeks control by discovering how the world works and then directly implementing the right principles. Living a LIFE OVER GOD means that there is no room or need for God. Our desire to control our environment and mitigate our fears no longer require appeasing God. Instead, we view the universe as a machine that we can understand. This reduces and limits God to a reproducible formula and worst than that you stop looking to a relationship WITH God and look to just discern the reliable principles of God.If you have been impacted by what you have heard in this podcast and would like to support us in our mission to help people experience healthier & deeper relationships with God, themselves, and others, go to: tableandwell.org/#donate

In this episode Tennison and Ginelle conversation centers around what living a LIFE UNDER GOD looks like, presented in the book 'WITH: Reimagining The Way You Relate to God' by Skye Jethani. LIFE UNDER GOD seeks to control the world through religion; by manipulating God through rituals or morality. It's the idea of living under divine rule and following that rule for the sole purpose of avoiding calamity. So when things go wrong or not as well as others we don't have favor with God or he is mad at us. We live this because we fear being subject to the uncontrollable and the happenstances of life.If you have been impacted by what you have heard in this podcast and would like to support us in our mission to help people experience healthier & deeper relationships with God, themselves, and others, go to: tableandwell.org/#donate

In this series they take a look at the 5 postures, or ways Jethani says that we, as humans, relate to God. Under, Over, From, and For.

Moving from Pastor to Pioneer. Britton is the director of Pastors to Pioneer, and there mission is to help pastors move from managing institutions to pioneering movements of disciples and simple churches in their cities.

Going from hand shakes to hugs, strangers to belonging, friends to family, in a matter of hours.

What if there was a place where your gifts and insight were welcomed or even required by community? What if there was a space where you brought what you had and took what you needed? What if in this place community equaled family? What if I told you this place existed? It is called the Table!
Join Tennison, Ginelle and Bethany conclude their conversation. Part of the common human experience is the longing to be seen, known, heard, and loved.

You know you are in a household.......if someone moves more quietly when you are asleep, ...If people know things about you that you do not know yourself, and if you did know you would seek to hide, ... If you sometimes dream of running away so you wouldn't be so well known, ...If your return from a long trip sparks a spontaneous celebration. Are you part of a Household?"

Join Tennison and Ginelle as they conclude their conversation with Jessica. Listen in as they discuss how we go from strangers to belonging at the Table. Even though the desire and result of the Table is belonging, safety, and connection. The heart is not for safety, belonging, and connection to Table and Well, it is to God's Family Table!

Join us as we continue our conversation with Jessica Mullen and unpack Household a little more. How the absence of the Household/Community actually could rob us of some very simple childhood maturity skills such as know what we need and asking for it. Like at the Table, in a Household we experience the "with-ness" of other and God.
Listen in as discuss how the Table allows us to go to the appropriate depth of connection to be what we need to be for each other in the moment and be the seed that creates Community.

What if we could create a space where safety, identity, belonging, and connection resided? What if every time you walked in the room everyone was happy to see you?
