Yet most people aren't intentional about taking a seat at the table of their own lives—let alone prioritizing the important things that happen around the tables in their homes, at work, and beyond.

One day in the life of Christ. Call it a tapestry of turmoil: A noisy pictorial in which the golden threads of triumph knot against the black, frazzled strings of tragedy.

There’s a lie masquerading as truth that’s running rampant in our culture. It goes something like this: you are powerful enough to control your circumstances and create the life you want through positive thinking, solid planning, and dreaming big enough.
