Finding Your Way Home to the Father

Do you feel stuck in your marriage? Do you wish you could sometimes show up differently in how you parent your children? Do you desire a slower pace of life for your family?  We all run into problems in our closest relationships, especially with those we love the most. But what if the problems we face are intensified, or perhaps even created, because of our own internal insecurities or lack of feeling loved? In episode 4 of season 1, Finding Your Way Home, we talk about the foundational solution to many of our relational concerns: Finding your way home to the Father's love. Unfortunately, like any other relationship, this takes time and practice, especially if we already don't feel lovable. In this episode, we discuss how we and our relationships change when we feel “delighted in,” we share our own stories of experiencing the Father’s love, and we offer insights on how we can move from intellectually understanding the Father’s love for us, to genuinely experiencing it. Time Stamps: 1:02 Introduction: The definition of joy 3:08 Why we start with the Father’s love 3:37 Relational problems in light of the matrix we find ourselves in5:45 The relational experience of love, particularly from the Father 9:30 How life looks when we know someone is delighted to be with us 11:01 The effects of not being delighted with yourself 13:38 How we love others is an overflow of how we feel loved 15:38 Right brain versus left brain experiences of love 19:19 The journey to “experiencing” the Father’s love 25:22 When the Father doesn’t feel safe to come home to 26:50 Why the thing that gives us the most life is often the thing we most resist 28:38 The way the Father speaks to each of His kids 30:03 How the Father sees and chooses us 33:36 The feeling of “home” and Christi’s 30-day challenge for you Show Notes: Download NONAH's brand new single: Find My Way Home by clicking here: https://bellpartners.ffm.to/findmywayhome Interested in the most joyful men's discipleship coaching journey?!
