What happens when college, “the best time of your life,” is anything but? With anxiety and depression increasing across campuses—the mental health of our young adults is not great right now. But, this generation is helping us name our mental health struggles and break the stigma. Whether you’re in college, or have a college-aged student or friend, Jamie walks us through “the basics” on how to thrive in what could commonly be a turbulent time; giving us hope to grow, and become even more resilient. Listen in for encouragement and strength in this transitional time.

If you don't know what to say to God, start with “thank you.” Gratitude is so much bigger than you think: it has the power to change you spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Today, Worship Pastor Justin Mosteller shares insight into WHY and HOW practicing thankfulness (which pssstttt is worship!) can shift your perspective on God and change your real life.

How Gratitude Keeps you Standing with Justin Mosteller—Husband/Dad, Worship Pastor/Songwriter with Crossroads Music

We know that big things like grief and loss of loved ones can obviously weigh us down, but there’s something to the losses we experience in everyday life—the little things that nip at our heels—that deserve our attention too. We talk with Pastor/Counselors Chuck and Ashley who recently released a book called “I used to be ___.”I used to be healthy, I used to be sober, I used to be a mom or a wife, etc…it’s in that “used to be space” where we can get stuck. We’re not meant to dwell there, God wants us to move. This conversation will encourage you to experience hope in the midst of everyday loss.

Is God calling you toward a new thing, but you’re not sure how to move because life—the tension of work and family—is already too much? And taking risks, especially when they are financial, can be paralyzing. Anita, a successful software executive, seemingly had it all, but something was missing. After taking the bold risk to leave her corporate job, she’s now a successful at-home business owner while homeschooling her children. She’s passionate about helping other women find more time, money and freedom while honoring God and family. If you’re feeling stuck in the day to day, or not sure how to pursue your dreams, this episode will encourage you and motivate you to take the next step.
