It’s Christmas Eve which means families are likely together and reflecting on the story of Jesus’ birth. And while it’s great to remember the story, it’s often easy to look over its relevance to our lives which is why today’s episode gives listeners a chance to apply some of the powerful cognitive truths God teaches us through the story of Jesus’s birth to the lives of our families.

After listening today, Quinn believes listeners will have a chance to:

1. Reflect on seasons of waiting and stillness in a new way
2. Look for God’s unlikely use of circumstances to do something great
3. Feel a new found confidence in each family member’s giftings

Mind Renewal Tip:
Waiting is often mistaken for a lack of God’s presence or plan for our lives when in fact, waiting is often the indication that God is in the midst of completing the greatest work among us.

Scripture Renewal Tip:
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulders, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

We often think of play as something that is just for kids, but did you know that play has just as many benefits for adults as children benefiting both our physical and mental health. Yet because adults don’t understand its value, they often don’t make room for play in their everyday lives.

1. How play affects your creativity and stress
2. The 8 types of play
3. Easy ways to incorporate play in your lives for the new year

Mind Renewal Tip:
We often assume that play ends with childhood but do not understand that play continues to benefit our minds and bodies well beyond the child years.

Scripture Renewal Tip:
A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. Proverbs 17:22

Do you have a house full of memories but more messes? Do you find that it’s hard to keep your house cleaned out but desire to have organization and peace within the chaos? In today’s episode, Quinn teaches listeners how to declutter and restore order to your space based on the work of Dana K White.

In the episode, Quinn teaches listeners:

1. One thing to say to yourself when feelings sentimental: I’m not rejecting the item, I’m just saying I don’t
have room for it.
2. Two questions to ask yourself when organizing
3. What containers are meant for

Mind Renewal Tip:
Containers are meant to contain and serve as a limit – not as a place to stuff. Every space is a container that sets a limit.

Scripture Renewal Tip:

"There is a time to keep, and a time to cast away". This verse suggests that it's okay to get rid of things that are no longer useful. Ecclesiastes 3:6

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal". This verse suggests that material wealth is temporary and can be lost, while heavenly treasures are eternal Matthew 6:19

It’s easy to expect the holidays will make us feel loved and accepted but often they can be reminders that we feel rejected by those we love the most. And this can make Thanksgiving and Christmas hurt our hearts.

1. Signs that we need to end seeking approval

2. Scripture that resets our mental perspective

3. Ways to focus on empathy for healing

Mind Renewal Tip:
If we chase after others’ approval, we often feel rejected. But if we chase after God, we quickly find acceptance.

Scripture Renewal Tip:
"Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:11-12:

It’s easy to see when other people are continually difficult and in need of healing, but sometimes we can’t see that we are the one that is hurting – not them!

In today’s episode, Quinn teaches listeners:

1. 6 Indications we are hurting
2. A question to ask yourself regarding your future that shows we need to heal

Isaiah 40:31
