Ep5 Receiving Your Values

This Whole Life

"For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be." ~ Matthew 6:21

We give our time, our money, and our energy to the things that we value. Everything about our lives is a result of our values - our actions, relationships, priorities, even our sins. Our values don't just determine what we do, they communicate who we are and Whose we are. But all too often we float through life without intentionally choosing our values: they get handed to us (sometimes without us even knowing it) by our families of origin, the culture around us, and the Church. As adults it is our privilege and our responsibility to examine these values and authentically own them so we can authentically live them.
In this episode, we look at the process of praying over our values: having a conversation with the Lord about what He desires for our lives. When we have the courage and the trust to receive our values from Him, we're able to more fully and freely live out the unique and beautiful call that He has for our personal and unrepeatable life.
