Win Today: Your Roadmap to Wholeness

Are you stuck in frustration, wondering why growth feels so hard? This week, Fr. Ronald Rolheiser joins us to uncover the hard truth about maturity: it often leads us into the wilderness. But here’s the good news—those wilderness seasons can purify your faith, dismantle harmful self-sufficiency, and transform your emotional and spiritual health. In this episode, we’ll discuss: Why maturity requires us to let go of control. How mystery becomes our greatest ally in navigating life’s challenges. The role of disillusionment in spiritual growth. What bitterness does to our emotional and spiritual health—and how to break free. Fr. Rolheiser’s reflections on life, faith, and wisdom from nearly 80 years of experience. This conversation will inspire and equip you with the tools to embrace your wilderness season and experience breakthrough in your faith journey.

This week, it's you and me. We’re unpacking how bitterness, cynicism, and unresolved pain can trap us in a cycle of frustration and blindness to God’s work in our lives. Drawing from Luke 4 and Mark 6, we’ll explore how the condition of your heart affects your ability to heal and mature. If you’re feeling stuck, weighed down by offense, or questioning why breakthrough feels out of reach, this conversation will give you practical tools and biblical wisdom to take the next step toward transformation. And I want to start our series here, because, in the weeks that follow, I want you to receive from our guests with an open mind and heart, unencumbered by issues like bitterness, cynicism, and unresolved disappointment. 🎙️ Joining us this month in our series: Father Ronald Rolheiser, Tyler Staton, Loren Covarrubias, and Jenn Johnson from Bethel Music.

Hey friends, happy new year! I'm excited to share that coming to the podcast this week and running for the next several weeks is Formed, our annual series on spiritual formation. This week, I'm kicking off the series with a teaching on "How a Hardened Heart Blocks Healing and Maturity." Next week, Father Ronald Rolheiser joins us to discuss "Why Maturity Leads Us Into the Wilderness and Dismantles Self-Sufficiency." In two weeks, Tyler Staton teaches us how to lose the illusion of control. On January 22, one of my heroes, Pastor Loren Covarrubias joins us to talk about how to develop spiritual perception and why few believers pursue maturity. And on January 29, Jenn Johnson from Bethel Music joins us to talk about the value of worship in our formation journeys. No doubt, this will be a powerful series. See you on Wednesday, January 1, 2025.

This week, we delve into the hidden forces shaping our world. Veteran journalist Rod Dreher, author of "Live Not by Lies," joins us to discuss the dangers of soft totalitarianism disguised as niceness and comfort. We'll explore censorship, the silencing of dissent, emotional fragility, and the impact of secularism and therapy on our spiritual lives. This conversation is a deep dive into the complex issues affecting our mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Episode Links Show Notes Buy my NEW BOOK "Healing What You Can't Erase" here!
