Let's Get Tryin' with Aaron Lee

Why do you always check your phone as soon as you wake up? Why do you always make a cup of coffee in the morning? Every single day is filled with routine and chaos, but my guess is that we don't even realize it. Habits drive our everyday, both for the good and the bad. In this episode, we take a look at why we have these habits, evaluating the good, the bad, and the ugly while also looking at how we can use habits to draw us closer to the Lord.

In scripture, there's a very important command that Jesus gives to His disciples; to love others as yourself. Many of us struggle to put that into our everyday lives so in this episode we talk about three practical ways for us to do that. This is a way of living that we can't ignore as believers in the faith. When we put this into practice we begin living real and authentic lives.

Light and dark are continually in battle. We face this fight every day. Many of us are walking around broken from our past, burdened by our guilt, and even locked down by our sin. There's a freedom that comes when we pull those things out of the darkness and bring them into the light. Jesus tells us in John 12, "I have come as a light to shine in this dark world so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark." In this episode, Bryan and I talk about our journey of living in darkness and how together we were able to bring it to light. Christ died so you wouldn't have to hide any longer. It's time to walk into the light.

How is mental health affecting the Church today? Let me press in a little further, how is mental health affecting Church leadership today? My fear is that it's a great deal! In this episode of Let's Get Tryin' I'm sharing with you a conversation I had with my friend, JR Horn, on his podcast; the Seats to Streets Podcast. Throughout our conversation, we talk about how COVID has caused new mental health challenges for the Church, as well as for staff members of the local church. We talk about some practical ways to help congregations while also addressing how each of us needs community and vulnerability.

What would the world look like if we genuinely wanted to know people better? What would it look like if we asked each other more questions and stopped caring only about our lives? I believe it would change the world for the good. In this episode of Let's Get Tryin' my wife, Jerrica, and I talk about this very topic. We unpack the reason this is important, some practical ways of doing it, and also the fears that drive us away from it. Let's get out there and start asking good questions.

Authenticity is a tricky thing. We all want it, but sometimes we don't want what it takes to be authentic. Recently I sat down with my friends over at GraceStory Podcast and talked about this very topic. This is that interview. As you listen, imagine a world where we truly are real and authentic, not held back by fake instagram accounts and empty words acting like we have it all together. The world could drastically change if we were all authentic.

For all of us, this past year has been filled with lots of changes. I would imagine that the majority of the changes feel like bad ones, but it's important to see the good things that have come from this season of change. In episode 40 of the podcast, I'm joined by my friend and co-laborer Sam Wilco. Sam was a contestant on season 18 of the voice and is now a worship leader in the local church. Sam and I discuss how this year of change has had its lows, but a year of change can be good. We also talk about spiritual growth and the importance of community.

"My Anxiety Journal" are bonus episodes where I grab the mic and share what's been going on with me that day. Some days are good while others are overwhelming. Hopefully, this will remind us of the journey and be an encouragement to one another. In this entry, I talk about waking up with anxiety and how it'll affect my day as well as my need for control and the ongoing battle we are all facing.

Do you get caught up in your failures? Do you bend toward the areas of your life where you still struggle? Guess what?! Me too!!! It's so easy to feel like you have to be perfect; that you have to fix yourself instantly. I mean we are the culture of instant gratification, right? But that's not what God is asking from us. He's whispering softly to you today that you're not alone. That when you fall down, he's by your side to help you stand. He's asking for progress, not perfection. Let's leave that to Christ. Let's Get Tryin'.

I never thought I'd get it, but guess what?!? I was wrong. I just recently recovered from my bout with COVID-19. This experience was a lot more than I thought it would be. It was a lot harder than I had imagined and it also showed me some powerful things I need to remember every single day. In this episode, I share three lessons that I learned during my time with COVID-19. Whether you've had it yourself or not, these lessons apply to all of us and our everyday lives.

You may have thrown away the leftover turkey, but that doesn't mean that thankfulness should be thrown away too. In this episode of the podcast, my wife, Jerrica and I discuss how gratitude is something we should practice every day of our lives and not just one day a year. We also talk about the importance of looking back at our lives and being thankful, as well as looking ahead with a heart of hopeful thanksgiving.

I don't care what side of the political line you're on, I'd imagine that today you're feeling a lot of anxiety and disunity among the nation. In episode 033 of the podcast, Bryan and I talk about how that anxiety and disunity can drive us further apart. It's not about politics, but about having the heart, vulnerability and mindset of Jesus. Democrat, Republican or whatever, we all need to check our hearts today!

How are you doing? Don’t give the fake answer. How are you really doing? With a world ruled by a pandemic, racism, masks, and politics it would be completely understandable if you were a mess. I know I am. In this episode of the podcast, we talk about depression, mental fatigue and how many people are struggling but don’t feel they have permission to be vulnerable about where they are. For us to live real and be authentic, we have to throw off our shame, speak up and help one another.

Have you ever felt like lesser of a person when it seems like someone is counting the seconds until they wrap up their conversation with you? It feels like in today's culture we aren't very good listeners. We're more concerned with ourselves and less concerned about our relationships. In this episode of the podcast, we take a listen to why it's important for us to listen before we speak—to genuinely care about the words that are coming from those whom we're interacting with. Relationships are important and listening is a basic social practice for our relationships.

Are you satisfied with your life? I mean, really satisfied? Do you see others around you getting the new things that you want? Do you long for a luxurious vacation when you see your friend post a picture of their toes in the sand at some beautiful beach? How about the models in those magazines? Do you wish you were as slim or as fit as them or that your spouse looked like them? All of this roots from a life of discontentment and is only heightened by a culture of comparison. That comparison trap is what we're talking about in this episode — how it leaves us dissatisfied — how it loops us into a cycle of envy and how we need to work hard to overcome it.
