We’re only days into 2026, and today’s episode reminds you of a powerful truth: how you begin a year shapes everything that follows. 🌅✨ If we are believing God for flourishing, then intentionality is the doorway into it.

Last episode, you were challenged to write ten things you’re seeking God for in 2026 — ten areas of Kingdom flourishing. 🌿 Many completed it… some started… and some put it off. Today we revisit that list with renewed faith. 🙏

You’ll learn how to:

✨ Revisit your list with trust — if God put it on your heart, He has already begun the work.

⚔️ Expect resistance — not as a setback, but as confirmation God is moving.

🧠 Guard your mind using Philippians 4:8–9 (CSB), the mental framework of Kingdom peace.

📣 Pray your list out loud — even 60 seconds a day realigns the heart with God’s presence.

👑 Remember flourishing is a Person — Jesus — before it’s a season.

This episode anchors your first week of 2026 with clarity, courage, and expectation. 🌟

Begin the year with intention… and step into the flourishing Jesus has prepared for you.

Happy New Year! 🎉 Today we launch 2026 with a powerful reminder: if you know Jesus Christ as your Savior, you are not just forgiven — you are a citizen of the Kingdom of Light. 🌅✨ And Kingdom citizens have access to peace, presence, provision, and a sound mind through the Holy Spirit. 🕊️

Yes, the world feels unhinged — wars, fear, confusion, and pressure on our minds. 🌍💥 But Scripture gives us a better way. Philippians 4:8–9 (CSB) calls us to dwell on what is true, honorable, pure, lovely, and praiseworthy… and promises that “the God of peace will be with you.” 🕊️💛

This episode gives you one powerful New Year step:

✍️ Write down ten things you’re seeking God for in 2026.

Not worldly success — but Kingdom flourishing: healing, clarity, stronger faith, restored joy, answered prayer, wisdom, calling, and salvation for loved ones. 🌿🔥

And if you’ve never given your life to Jesus, today’s message gently but firmly calls you home. ❤️✨ There is no flourishing outside the King.

Begin this year rooted, expectant, and anchored in Christ’s peace. 🌟

Welcome to 2026 — a year of Kingdom flourishing.

As 2025 comes to a close, this episode invites you to slow down, breathe, and say the words our hurried world forgets: “Thank You, Lord.” 🙏

Last year we prayed for Flourishing in 2025—not worldly success, but the deep, Kingdom-rooted flourishing that comes only through Jesus Christ. 🌿✨ And now, at the year’s end, we declare it openly: God has been faithful.

I share a personal testimony inspired by Mike Reid’s lyric, “I don’t have it all, but I got enough… ’cause I got a life I love.” ❤️ God has given my family a year of love, provision, and protection. But this episode is also for those who faced loss, illness, discouragement, or hardship in 2025. 🌧️💔 Even in shadowed valleys, God was near—quiet strength, timely encouragement, grace for one more step. 🌄

🎯 CALL TO ACTION:

Before January 1, get a sheet of paper and write numbers 1–10. Pray… then list ten things you’re grateful for from 2025—small or big—that reveal God’s faithful hand. ✍️✨ This simple practice will steady your heart and prepare your soul for a new year of grace.

🌅 Because we don’t enter 2026 empty-handed—

we carry our testimonies with us.

Join me on New Year’s Day for a special Episode #1 of 2026! 🎉📅

🎄✨ Step back into the glow of classic Christmas America as we revisit the incredible real story behind It’s a Wonderful Life — the 1946 “flop” that became the most beloved Christmas movie of all time. 🌟📺

Discover how three legendary directors took a bold stand for creative freedom, only to see their dream collapse… and how a simple clerical mistake decades later turned George Bailey, Clarence the angel, and the town of Bedford Falls into an annual Christmas tradition. 🎬❄️🔔

In this episode, you’ll remember why this film still moves us: because its world was shaped by a culture that still prayed, still sang carols, still helped neighbors, and still knew whose birthday Christmas celebrates. 🙏🎶👶✨

As you watch George run through the snow shouting “Merry Christmas!” you’re not just watching a movie — you’re remembering a time when Christmas pointed clearly to Christ. And maybe… you’re feeling Heaven get just a little closer. ❤️❄️

So plug in the lights, warm up the cocoa, and gather the family. This Christmas, let Bedford Falls remind you of the wonder, hope, and Light that came into the world named Jesus. 🌟🎁👑 🎄✨

Side note: Paramount ultimately regained control of "Its A Wonderful Life". Its along and complex story...just beware- YOU CAN NOT USE ANY PART OF THE MOVIE without Paramount consent. Companies who made copies of the movie before Paramount regained control can sell remaining stock.

🎄✨ Four hundred years of silence ended with a newborn’s cry. Today’s episode reflects on Luke 2:7 and John 1:14 — the Word became flesh, and heaven’s silence broke. 🕊️💛

Imagine Jesus the Messiah, God in the flesh stepping into your life, your chaos, your struggles, just as He stepped into the stable. Vulnerable, yet divine. Silent, yet powerful. This cry is more than history; it’s your invitation to receive peace, hope, and presence today. 🌟

Take five minutes. Close your eyes, breathe, and let the wonder of His first cry fill your heart. 🎁✨ Jesus came for you — and that’s the best gift of all.

Take a few minutes. Let the wonder of His names sink in. Speak them aloud or quietly to yourself. Allow God’s presence to flood your heart and bring peace that surpasses understanding. 💫✨

🎄✨ Feeling weary, anxious, or weighed down? Christmas is more than a story — it’s good news of great joy for YOU (Luke 2:10)! 🕊️💛

The angels’ announcement to shepherds still speaks today: hope has arrived, joy is possible, and peace can fill your heart. 🌟🎁 Jesus came not just to be admired from afar, but to enter your life personally — to meet you in your struggles, lift your burdens, and give you a hope that lasts forever.

If you haven’t yet received Him, Christmas invites you to open your heart to Jesus. By faith, you can accept His gift of eternal life — the ultimate joy, the deepest peace, and the most enduring hope you’ll ever know. 🎁💫

Take five minutes to pause, breathe, and let the wonder of Christmas settle into your soul. You don’t need perfection, applause, or recognition — only a heart willing to receive Him. Today, hope has come, joy is yours, and the Savior of the world is near. 💛🕊️
