Making Plans - So True Devotional

What this episode covers

How should Christians think about the future? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy explores James 4:13–17 and the biblical wisdom behind making plans that are humbly submitted to the will of God. While planning for the future is wise, Scripture warns against the arrogance of assuming we control tomorrow. Our lives are brief, and every plan must ultimately rest in the sovereign purposes of God. Pastor Philip reminds us that faithful Christian living means acknowledging God in every decision, holding our plans loosely, and living fully for Him today. When we recognize that success, opportunity, and life itself come from the Lord, our plans become acts of faith rather than expressions of pride. True wisdom is not abandoning planning but learning to say with humility, “If the Lord wills.”Key Scripture: James 4:13–17Visit our websiteConnect with us

Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
