disciples of jesus

I wear glasses to correct the distortions in my vision. Everyone has some biases that distort our perception of the world. Some of these thought patterns cause us to stumble in relationships, work, or lifestyle. When we break those biases we can enjoy better living. In this episode I explore common biases, connect with the Disciples of Jesus on a wild night voyage, and offer some ways to change the biased thoughts that can hold us back from well-being.

Segments include:

What is a bias? 1:07 

Biased Disciples and a Ghost 1:50

Awareness of my biases 4:20

Stop what isn’t working 7:22

Receive ideas from others 8:12

Step back from the crowd 9:35

Faith for better vision 10:36

Rev Robin T Jennings is a father and grandfather, author and speaker. His book “A Letter to the Church and the Next Generation: Spiritual Growth through the Witness of James” is a walk through the book of James with steps that teach readers how to disciple the next generation. Rev Jennings, a Baby Boomer himself, believes that the older generation has a critical role to play in the lives of Millennials and GenZ. And I agree wholeheartedly! We chat about Spiritual growth and how to achieve that, the importance of surrender and vulnerability in discipleship, and how to build a bridge between generations from both sides.
