The problem in our culture is not a lack of information, but rather a lack of the integration of the information we receive! This podcast is place for us to learn together about how to think deeper and more clearly about the things going on in our lives!
We are finally back! We haven’t posted an episode since Thanksgiving of 2021, so we are very excited for you to be a part of this conversation! Mike and Carson cover a wide variety of topics, from all of the staff transitions in our church to the conflict in Ukraine, Mike’s new book that is coming on March 15th, and some practical ways we can navigate change no matter where we are! We are excited to be back in a rhythm of posting new content and hope that you will join us as we begin to prepare for summer and all that is to come!

PRIDE AND FEAR
On this episode of Just Think, Mike and Carson dive into a conversation about pride and fear. We often don’t see these ideas as things that are connected but through this conversation we can begin to see how deeply connected they are and how to begin taking steps to prevent them from ruling our lives.
In the episode Mike gives us two definitions for fear and pride:
Pride: The idea that you have to have your own value and that you must prove it and portray it.
Fear: Anxiety that is produced when the thing before us threatens what it is that we value
