Every family has its own unique culture to it; the real behaviors, heart attitudes, dynamics, and actions (especially those when no ones looking). Your family culture isn’t what you say it is, it’s what really exists. It’s vital to recalibrate it periodically and in this episode Isaac and Angie share the most important first steps to doing this which involve honest reflection, deep marriage conversations, and prayer. Make sure you subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts to be prompted of new episodes

Main Points in This Episode:

• If you don’t recalibrate periodically your family culture will be in a gradual decline
• Don’t start by thinking about what you want to improve as it will discourage you
• Start by reflecting on what’s good over the last year and what God is doing in your family. Think about the progress and list it out.
• After reflecting on what’s good, start to think about what could be improved. But instead of focusing on lots of things, think through 1-3 things that if they were influenced, would influence a lot of the things you’d like to see change or growth in within your family.
• Make sure you have a good marriage meeting on this and ask God to give you wisdom on what to focus on.

Scriptures From This Episode:

–  Psalm 115:14-15 –  “May the Lord give you increase, you and your children! May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth!“

–  1 Thessalonians 5:16-17 – “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,“

–  Jeremiah 17:5-10 – “‘Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord. He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land. “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.” The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
