Fighting for Peace in Your Home [Cultivating Spiritual Growth in Your Home 2 of 5]

  • Summary

  • Welcome to episode 2 of 5 in our Summer Series called, Cultivating a Spiritual Growth Environment in Your Home.

    One of the most frequent questions we're asked is how we maintain a spirit of peace as a family of five and all we have going on. "How do you carry such calm in your interactions with each other?" wrote one long-time listener. To begin, peace doesn't come without a fight.

    In this episode, we talk about practical ways you can war for and cultivate peace in your home.

    We talk about:
    • Why our bodies feel safer in chaos than peace
    • Specific ways to consecrate your home and use prayer as your greatest weapon in the war for peace
    • How to take dominion over what God has given you
    • Keeping short accounts of sin in our lives
    • Playing the long game when seeing the day-to-day overwhelm
