session 159 "Honoring From Afar"

Do you long to live a completely holy life but feel like it’s out of your reach? Does the word ‘holiness’ feel like a bad word in your ears?

Holiness is too often seen as a negative thing. For this reason, many believers avoid the subject at all costs.

Different extremes exist in the Church ranging from legalism on one end and lawlessness on the other, but when interpreted, understood, believed and applied rightly, holiness is beautiful and brings victory, wholeness, life, freedom, joy, and peace to people’s lives.

Wholly Holy will help you change your thinking about holiness, and overcome besetting sins, addictions and behaviors no matter how long you’ve struggled with them.

Become just like Jesus in your thoughts, attitudes, motives, behavior, and speech.

Become wholly holy today!

Coping with loss and family stress during the holidays can be challenging, but having a plan in place can help you navigate this difficult time. Here's a suggested plan to help you survive the holidays:

1. Acknowledge Your Feelings:

   • Recognize and accept that it's okay to feel a range of emotions, including sadness, grief, anger, or frustration.
   • Give yourself permission to grieve and understand that healing is a process that takes time.

2. Communicate Your Needs:

   • Clearly communicate your needs to family and friends. Let them know if you need support, or if you prefer some time alone.
   • Be honest about your emotions, and don't feel pressured to pretend everything is okay if it's not.
   •  

3. Create New Traditions or Modify Existing Ones:

   • If old traditions are too painful, consider creating new ones or modifying existing ones to better suit your current situation.
   • Focus on activities that bring comfort and joy, even if they are different from what you've done in the past.

4. Memorialize and Honor:

   • Find meaningful ways to honor and remember your loved one. This could include creating a memorial, lighting a candle, or sharing stories with family members.
   • Incorporate your loved one's memory into holiday activities to keep their spirit alive.

5. Self-Care:

   • Prioritize self-care. Take time for activities that bring you peace and relaxation.
   • Get enough sleep, eat well, and engage in activities that nourish your mind and body.

6. Connect with Supportive People:

   • Seek out friends, support groups, or therapists who can provide understanding and comfort during this time.
   • Surround yourself with people who are supportive and compassionate.
   •  

7. Focus on Gratitude:

   • Practice gratitude for the positive aspects of your life, even amidst the challenges.
   • Consider keeping a gratitude journal to remind yourself of the good things in your life.

8. Professional Support:

   • If the stress becomes too overwhelming, consider seeking professional help from a counselor or therapist who specializes in grief and loss.

"Bio dad" is a colloquial and informal term often used to refer to a person's biological father. The term distinguishes the biological or genetic relationship between the father and the child, without necessarily implying an ongoing or close relationship. It might be used when discussing family dynamics or relationships, especially in situations where there may be a difference between a biological parent and someone who plays a more active or involved role in the individual's life.

It's worth noting that the term "bio dad" is informal and may not carry the same emotional or legal weight as terms like "father" or "dad." The nature of the relationship between a biological father and their child can vary widely, and individuals may use different terms based on their unique family circumstances.

Tonight John Durham joins Fritz in this riveting conversation concerning Fathers. Welcome, glad YOU ARE HERE.
