episode Eat the Frog: Win the Morning, Change Your Life | Habit 3 cover

Description

We all have a frog. That difficult conversation. That habit that needs to change. That decision we’ve been postponing. That step of faith we’ve been avoiding. In this message, we discover why “eating the frog” isn’t just a productivity principle—it’s a spiritual discipline. Drawing from Colossians 3:9-10 and Proverbs 28:13, we’ll learn how God transforms us through daily habits, intentional choices, and faithful repetition. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or trapped by old patterns, this message will encourage you to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start taking the next faithful step today. The frog you’re avoiding may be the very thing standing between you and the life God is calling you to live.

Wind the Clock: Making Every Minute Count | Win the Day Week 6

What are you doing with the time God has given you? In Week 6 of our Win the Day series, we explore Habit 6: Wind the Clock. Drawing from Ephesians 5:15–17 and Mark Batterson’s book Win the Day, this message challenges us to recognize every moment as a gift from God and an opportunity to live with purpose. We discuss the distractions that steal our attention, the importance of staying spiritually alive and expectant, and the power of investing in future generations through intentional choices today. You’ll also discover how making predecisions can help you honor God with your time before temptation and distraction ever arrive. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, student, or simply seeking to live more intentionally, this message will encourage you to stop drifting, start living on purpose, and make the most of every opportunity God places in front of you. Scripture: Ephesians 5:15–17Series: Win the Day (Week 6 of 7)Topic: Time Stewardship, Purpose, Discipleship, Father’s Day Every minute counts. The best ones are still ahead.

Key themes: * Spiritual stagnation * Fear vs. faith * Obedience over comfort * Trusting God in the unknown * The power of one step of faith Scripture: Matthew 14:22–33 If you’re ready to move forward in your faith, this message will help you take your next step.

Change Your Mind, Change Your Life

WIN THE DAY — Week 1: Flip the Script Before Michael Jordan became the greatest basketball player of all time, he got cut from his high school team. That rejection could have become his identity—but instead, he flipped the script. In this first message of our 7-week series Win the Day, we explore Numbers 11 and uncover how the Israelites allowed old mental narratives to keep them stuck—even after God had already set them free. The same thing happens to us. We replay lies from our past, romanticize what God delivered us from, and let false stories shape our future. But through Christ, we are given a new identity and a new story. In this message, you’ll discover: • Why your internal narrative matters • How to recognize false scripts from your past • What it means to “take every thought captive” • Why God often chooses overlooked people for extraordinary purpose • Practical biblical steps to renew your mind • How Jesus doesn’t just edit your story—He becomes the Author of it Key Scriptures: Numbers 11:1–6 2 Corinthians 10:5 Jeremiah 29:11 2 Corinthians 5:17 John 10:7–18 Matthew 10:32–33 The script you’ve been living is not the final word. God is still writing—and He writes resurrections.
