OM DENNE EPISODE
There are so many external demands on our time and attention - anxiety inducing demands. Demands that answer questions like: What should I care about? What should I strive for? What is success? In this podcast of Breaking Bread, Katie Miller and Kathy Knochel help us see that the demands after all might not be from an external voice but rather our own internal one. Fortunately, there are practical ways to ground ourselves in such a way that this voice is grounded in truth and goodness.
Show notes:
-
Grounding is the anchoring of ourselves in truth and reality.
-
Grounding allows us to evaluate the demands we feel. It affords us the space to ask helpful questions.
-
-
What is true?
-
-
-
What does God say?
-
-
-
What is realistic?
-
-
-
What are my values?
-
-
Having a strong since of reality is increasingly challenging in a world of curated fantasy.
-
Our perception of reality and internalization of demands is a shaping we undergo over time through repeated experiences. This shaping can be towards truth or away.
-
One way we can step into a healthy shaping is to practice spiritual disciplines.
