Small Shifts
The importance of caring for people, bringing our friends and family one step closer to Jesus, has nothing to do with big deeds. Most of us can’t go overseas to preach the gospel or have meaningful change within 3rd world countries. Yet, we all aspire to do something extremely meaningful. Gina talks about how you don’t need to look far, it is happening all around you. God puts everyone in our lives for a reason and it only makes sense that we start to pay attention to the more minor details of those circumstances. How are you going to start paying attention to the smaller details? Maybe think of new ways to show kindness at work? Let us know what works for you in the comments!
True Potential
Gina and Mike talk a lot about the Strengths Finder in this week’s episode. This tool is used to show your potential in an array of areas related to yourself and how you behave. One of the most important ways Gina uses this tool is to help people see their full potential and bring another form of light into their lives through faith. How can we get more out of life than we are getting now? It is difficult but Gina wants to see people grow as much as you want to be the best person you can be. What does reaching your true potential mean to you? Are you striving for happiness and being closer to God? If we focus on those goals, we can then see the doors Jesus opens for us!
