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
