Welcome to episode 2 of 5 in our Summer Series called, Cultivating a Spiritual Growth Environment in Your Home.

One of the most frequent questions we're asked is how we maintain a spirit of peace as 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 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
  • Specific ways to consecrate your home and use prayer as your greatest weapon in the war for peace
  • How to take dominion over what God has given you
  • Keeping short accounts of sin in our lives
  • Playing the long game when seeing the day-to-day overwhelm
This series comes with a pdf workbook / discussion guide to go along with all five episodes (found in show notes below). You can use them in your small groups, with your spouse, or as a companion guide to the content.
