Was 2023 the year that turned that around? Stick around to find out!

The Keys to Deepening Intimacy in Relationships
Intimacy. It almost sounds like a dirty word. For many people today, the idea of sharing your body is much more approachable than opening up and sharing your thoughts, feelings, fears and regrets. And, it is exactly this inability to be open with each other that is keeping us from experiencing the deeper and more fulfilling joys of our relationships, rather than just the temporary and life-sapping high of a tinder one night stand or a huge social media list of fans and followers but no one you can actually call “friend.” Stick around, because today we are continuing our relationships resolutions December series with the keys to deepening intimacy in relationships and it all starts with accountability!

Made To Be In Relationship
Why do you exist? What is your purpose for being? What is the reason and point of your life? This isn’t a trick question. In fact, it’s a question we’ve all answered countless times and countless ways throughout our lives, most of the time subconsciously, and how we answer this question directly impacts every choice and every relationship we’ve ever been in. This is the question we are going to get to the bottom of here today!

Depression and Nihilism are Destroying our Relationships
50% of marriages end in divorce. Monogamy is patriarchy. Everyone ends up leaving you anyways. What’s the point?” Have you had thoughts like this about relationships? These are just a few of the lies many of us believe today which have doomed many of our relationships before they’ve even started. But, when we live in a post-Christian, naturalist, nihilistic world, should we really be surprised? And, when one of the most common reasons cited for depression in the U.S. is due to relationship issues, should we really be surprised that, as of May 2023, Gallup has reported that now more than 25% of adults in the U.S. are depressed? So, how does what we believe impact our relationships and how can we correct this downward spiral?

Understanding Anxiety and Congruence
What do you believe? About God? About life? About your place in the world? About your relationships and your future? It is imperative to know what your core beliefs are if you want to understand why you make the decisions you make. But what happens in our hearts and minds when what we believe seems to be in constant conflict with what we do? In these seasons, it can feel like the ground is splitting right between your feet and pulling away in either direction. You have one foot planted on either side, but the chasm is getting wider and wider, and you need to make a choice on either end or fall into the abyss. You believe that one side leads to safety and the other side leads to destruction, so the choice should be simple, but then why are you still paralyzed with fear and unable to make a decision? Why do so many wait so long that they end up falling into the pit rather than choosing a side? When what we believe conflicts with reality, it can produce in us feelings of stress, anxiety and discomfort which we then will try to justify to keep our world making sense. The psychological term for this is known as cognitive dissonance and I believe this is a huge factor at the heart of many of our anxieties today. Stick around to find out why and what you need to overcome it in your lives.

Superficial Masculinity

The Fatherless Generations
In the past few years and even decades, we have seen a dramatic shift in the way that men are perceived in the world and in the way that many of us see ourselves. In the public eye, we have seen countless prominent men – politicians, celebrities, influencers, even pastors and apologists – exposed as liars, manipulators, predators and more. Too many men are falling prey to deception, abandoning their families and betraying the trusts of those they have been entrusted to care for. We have seen measurable generational increases in depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Why is this happening? What is the cause? How do we change the trajectory? How have we created these men without chests and what can we do about it?
