Listen "42. Practicing What You Preach"
Episode Synopsis
It’s easy to point the finger—at our kids, our spouse, or someone else. But God’s Word invites us to look inward first.✨ Romans 2 reminds us that:Hypocrisy hurts more than our witness—it confuses our kids.God’s kindness isn’t a free pass—it’s an invitation to grow.How we live when no one’s watching still matters.✨Just like Romans 2 calls us to humble self-reflection, Positive discipline teaches that strong discipline begins with the adult—not just controlling the child’s behavior, but growing in our own emotional regulation and humility.✨I want to give you three simple heart checks to come back to when you find yourself being challenged by your child or wanting to react in a less than ideal way.1. Before I correct someone, have I corrected myself? Whether it’s your child, your husband, or someone else—pause and ask, “Lord, is there something in me You want to refine first?”2. Am I using grace as permission, or transformation? God’s grace isn’t a license to ignore our sin. It’s a gift that makes repentance safe.3. Am I teaching my children to follow Jesus by how I follow Him in private? Who you are when no one’s watching—that’s who you’re inviting your kids to become.✨✨Heavenly father I love you, so so much, You see it all. The moments I get it right, and the moments I don’t. Thank You for Your patience. And Lord, I need you. I ask that you help me not to judge others while ignoring the work You want to do in me. Teach me to lead my children with humility, authenticity, and grace. And when I fail, remind me that Your kindness is not permission to stay there—it’s an invitation to grow. Amen.✨✨
