We're tackling goal setting, even (especially!) though it's the end of April. As Christians, how we spend our time matters and there's nothing like a re-evaluation before summer starts.
We talk about casting a vision, identifying your trouble areas, and the difference between goals and practices. Then we end with a discussion about Phylicia's productivity course!
We've dropped episodes on a lot of serious topics lately so we thought we would mix things up with a fun episode. We discuss personality tests, podcasts, and a handful of our favorite things.
We discuss three personality tests. On the Myers-Briggs, Phylicia is an ENTJ and Lisa is a INFJ. We've both recently dug into the enneagram and Phylicia is a 3: the Achiever and Lisa is a 8: the Challenger. On Gretchen Rubin's Four Tendencies, Phylicia is an Upholder and Lisa is a Questioner.

Something we can't stop talking about:
Lisa is obsessed with the big picture ideas of why God made the world and why did He make people and what's our role as a redeemed people in a fallen world.
Phylicia is consumed with the issue of race and the Gospel.

This week, we're tackling why church matters and why it should matter to us. Do we actually need to be involved with a local group of believers? What difference does it make in our lives?
We discuss that Jesus died for the church and therefore we must care for it. This Christian faith is meant to be communal, not individual, and that means doing life with other believers.
Most of us would shun the idea of a true "prosperity gospel." We would be horrified at being promised riches and fame for becoming a believer. But how often do we settle for a lesser form of a false gospel when we believe that Christ came to make us happy and make our lives easy?
This week we are tackling what we really signed up for as believers. We discuss how life is a battle- and how we both find that motivating. We talk what it means to live for eternity and how it's really the most hopeful way to live life.
