From Corporate Burnout to Kingdom Purpose - Special Guest Chad Gilbert

What does it look like to chase success, attain the things you desired, and still feel completely empty? How does God restore us in those moments? In this episode Jason Ellis sits down with Briarcrest's Director of Marketing, Chad Gilbert, who shares about his journey finding real peace and purpose after 20 years in Corporate America. Chad opens up about battling anxiety and depression at the height of his career, a turning point moment on an airplane, and what happened when he finally surrendered control to God. They also dig into practical wisdom for parents navigating youth sports, intentional family time, and how to raise kids whose identity is rooted first in Christ, not their academic or athletic performance. More from this episode: · Why success without purpose always leaves you empty · How to recognize when God is opening (or closing) a door · Using "windshield time" to disciple your kids · The power of gratitude in your darkest moments · Advice for young adults just starting out in the "real world" 🎧 Listen and Subscribe now on Apple, Spotify and YouTube!

Seeds Planted in Seasons of Struggle - A Sit-Down with Dr. Edd Lawrence

"Arise, go forth, and conquer." That's the daily exhortation Dr. Edd Lawrence offers his students when they leave his classroom. But what does it really look like to “go forth and conquer” in today’s world? Check out the latest episode of the Courageous Conversations podcast where Dr. Lawrence shares practical advice formed from decades of experience in parenting, teaching, and serving in the ministry. Here are a few of the insights Dr. Lawrence shared, as only he can! On Boundaries: Kids secretly want them—they provide safety and show love. They don’t know how much they need them…until they know how much they really need them. On Consistency: Parenting is all about intentionality. Training up a child in they way they should go means you're creating appetites for good things: faith, integrity, hard work. On the Gospel: At the end of the day, we're all sinners in need of a Savior - parents and kids alike. Good parenting begins with intentionality but is grounded in humility. From curfews to character, “seeds planted in seasons of struggle”, this conversation is full of truth, encouragement, and lived wisdom. If you're a parent, teacher, or anyone investing in the next generation, you don't want to miss this. Listen now on the Courageous Conversations Podcast!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
