Manage episode 377370418 series 3327262
In this insightful episode "Managing Your Manageables," Pastor Ken takes us deep into the art of decision-making and how it impacts our lives.
We kick off this episode by discussing the consequences of mismanaging our lives, which can lead to long-term problems, stress, and regret. Managing your life well means aligning your choices with what is right, ultimately inviting God's blessings into your journey.
We've previously explored managing relationships and the power of our words. In today's discussion, we unravel the intricate process of managing our decisions. Over the coming weeks, we'll also tackle how to manage your body and finances, offering you a comprehensive guide to holistic life management.
Bad decisions can leave emotional, mental, and relational scars, which is why we believe it's crucial to equip you with five essential tests to help you make good decisions:
**1. The Agreement Test:** Does it align with God's Word? Discover why seeking guidance from God's wisdom is crucial in decision-making and how it can illuminate your path.
**2. The Integrity Test:** Would you want everyone to know? Learn why maintaining integrity in your decisions is vital and how it impacts your reputation and character.
**3. The Improvement Test:** Will it make you a better person? Explore the concept of making decisions that contribute to personal growth and purpose.
**4. The Freedom Test:** Could it become addicting? Understand the importance of safeguarding your freedom in Christ and avoiding decisions that might lead to bondage.
**5. The Influence Test:** Will it negatively impact anyone else? Dive into the significance of considering how your choices affect those around you, both within and outside the Christian community.
Throughout this episode, we emphasize the value of making decisions that honor God, even in situations where there may be shades of gray. Your God-given conscience, coupled with God's Word, can serve as a reliable compass in navigating life's complexities.
We wrap up with a reminder of the ultimate decision – choosing to follow Jesus. This decision, we believe, is the best one you can make, offering salvation, direction, purpose, and hope.
