Ep. 429: Are You A Thermometer Or A Thermostat?
from Guided by Faith: Daily Christian Devotions and Advice for Teens and Young Adults · host Jay Holland and Christian Parenting
Focusing on Romans 12:12, this episode introduces a memorable metaphor: are you shaped by your environment, or do you shape it? Jay encourages listeners to become “thermostats”, i.e. people who bring hope, patience, and prayer into difficult situations. For teens and young adults facing pressure, stress, or uncertainty, this message highlights the power of a Christ-centered mindset. By rejoicing in hope, enduring trials, and staying connected to God through constant prayer, believers can influence their surroundings and reflect God’s peace and joy wherever they go.Listen and Subscribe:[Apple Podcasts] | [Spotify]Visit Christian Parenting’s Moms, Dads, and Grads Gift Guide: https://www.christianparenting.org/gifts/Connect with Us:Website: www.guidedbyfaith.netYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GuidedbyFaithPodcastInstagram: @guidedbyfaith_podcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on your favorite podcast platform and share it with friends who might benefit from this message.***Pick up a copy of Jay’s new Journal: Renewed: The 365-Day Christian Gratitude Journal https://amzn.to/3MLWavlGuided By Faith is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.For more information visit www.ChristianParenting.org
