Emotional Intelligence - 05 - Don’t Pick Up Anything That Doesn’t Belong To You - 7/5/2026

People Will try to hand you things… all the time. Things like Labels… or Their Expectations… or Guilt. They tried the same things with Jesus, but He was emotionally secure enough to not pick up anything that wasn’t His to carry. In this insightful message Pastor Joseph digs into Jesus’ methods of dealing with issues just like these.

Emotional Intelligence - 04 - Reaction or Response? - 6/21/2026

Jesus never reacted. He always took a second, took a breath, and framed His response to say what HE wanted to say - rather than reacting in the moment. He also shows us by example that some things don’t merit any response at all. A truly interesting, fascinating study into how Jesus dealt with people.

Emotional Intelligence - 03 - Time Control - 6/14/2026

Jesus was always, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, in control of His time and His schedule.
