Episode description

One of the most frequent questions we're asked is how we maintain a spirit of peace with 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 a world of instant gratification, we too easily settle for moments of peace; but anything that doesn't last is counterfeit. 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
  • Prayer as a weapon for the war for peace
  • Why it's important to take dominion over what God has given you
  • Keeping short accounts of sin in our lives
  • Playing the long game in the day-to-day overwhelm
