Kristen Welch: A Normal that is Not Our Own

Episode Summary

How are you going to be present in the moment with Jesus? In this episode, Jeff, Jeff, and Kristen discuss: Gratitude is born at the crossroads of perspective. Living life with a grateful heart. Finding your life of purpose. The key to raising grateful kids. Capturing the moments and the audience that matter most. Staying present in the moment, looking up, looking around, and slowing down. Key Takeaways: Jesus is all we need. There is no need for comparison with our neighbors because He is all we need (either those with more or those with less). We all have the opportunity to respond to what we are experiencing. Doing nothing is a response, but is it working? If not, what can you do to make a change? Kids can sniff out hypocrisy. They know when you’re not doing what you tell them to do. If you want to raise children who follow Jesus, then you must follow Jesus. There are opportunities to live the gospel every day in the making of the beds and the peanut butter sandwiches. Have dinner with your family, slow down, take a walk, and connect. "Jesus is enough. He is more than enough. Giving our life away is a beautiful way to live." — Kristen Welch About Kristen Welch: Kristen Welch is a compassionate leader and accomplished author dedicated to making a meaningful impact on vulnerable families.
