When you think about how intelligent you are, what do you believe to be true? If you immediately see the sum of your test scores and professional prowess, I guarantee you you’re only seeing a fragment of the truth God has for you. What if I told you intelligence is just as much in test scores as it is in listening to others astutely and responding to the emotional temperature of a room? The point is, there’s more brilliance in you than you know and it looks differently than you might believe ...

As we cross the finish line of the second season I'd like to leave you with an invitation. I invite you to ask the Lord to tell you what He thinks about you. More than that, I invite you to believe Him. Where you've recognized lies you've believed about your intelligence, can you exchange that for the truth He's wanting you to know? You're not too …

We often find a tension between where we are and where we’re meant to operate … and let’s face it, it’s a tension we have to navigate. Discovering a lie we’ve believed is no different and once we do, we’ve got to deal with it. I’m so grateful I have Deana Morgan back on to help us all deal with it today! She’s written an incredibly powerful book ca…

If you’re like me, you’ve most likely found yourself listening to and leaning into the truth in Tim Ross’s podcast (The Basement) … and felt like you were eavesdropping on an honest and private convo while you did it. But what we glean from in the health of Tim’s life didn’t just appear; it’s not some factory-made cake fresh off the line. We’re not…

Friends, I have Tim Ross with me today and this conversation is one you don't want to miss. If you haven't heard him preach or listened to his podcast (The Basement with Tim Ross), then my goodness are you in for a treat. Today we're doing a deep dive on the lies surrounding validation . Why? Because validation matters and we need it in our lives, …

If you aren’t familiar with Embrace Grace and the amazing work Amy Ford and Salina Duffy began in 2008, I’m so excited to introduce you to them now. Today we’re not only talking about what God’s called them to do, but the lie of inexperience that could have kept them from starting in the first place. But that’s just where we’re beginning. My hope i…

We each have unique and beautifully specific callings the enemy never wants us to see fulfilled. That’s why he tries to derail us by coming after our worth, our belief in our own abilities, and yes, even our definition of intelligence. But God’s here to speak truth to us. Today, I’m so excited to have Embrace Grace founders, Amy Ford and Salina Duf…

Moments of diminishment like to try and stay with us … to tell us we’re inadequate, not enough, or any number of other lies. Often, it can feel like what once defined a moment in our lives ends up defining our life altogether. So on today’s episode, Hannah Morris sits down with me to talk about the conclusions we make versus the truth God wants us …

Formal education is hardly the be-all end-all for intelligence. It's not even the starting place. Of course, there are various ways in which we learn and are educated to pursue what God has called us to pursue. But if we think all of those ways to learn are only housed in the package of a college program, we'd be sadly mistaken. That's because God …

Each time we believe a lie about ourselves we're actually rejecting an invitation to know truth. The invitation to believe you're behind somehow is no different. You're brilliant in specific ways God has called you to be, smart in ways no one else can be, and exactly in time with His purposes in your life. And what if your intelligence looks differ…

A rainbow isn’t just your favorite color in it or the one that seems brightest. No different, you are not one thing, gifting, attribute, character trait, or ability. But the lies of who you are and aren’t start harassing you early and they don’t let up when you’re an adult. That’s why we have to have to sift and sort through what we’ve believed to …
  continue reading
 
It’s no secret the enemy likes to peddle lies— especially when it comes to how we think about ourselves. Intelligence is not quantified by test scores or diplomas although most of us might have a hard time truly believing that. If that’s hard for you to believe, I get it. I’ve believed plenty of lies myself in the area of intelligence. But today, w…

First things first. WELCOME TO SEASON 2! I’ve been so encouraged by all the questions, convos, and feedback since Season 1 … It’s clear how important this conversation is to have and I’m so excited to continue it. Today, I think it’s important for us to reset the table somewhat. Understanding how God has gifted us in intelligence is wonderfully imp…

As we end this first season, I feel like this is the perfect place to land our plane ... bringing the Holy Spirit into every bit of our daily lives. Also, may I just quickly say, thank you? I'm so grateful you've been on this journey with me and although we're taking a beat. This is far from the end. Today I wanted to leave you with a holy challeng…

Full disclosure, this might be one of my favorite episodes. Why? Because culture may be prodding many into deconstructing their faith, but it's not leading people through it. So today we're talking about it. God's not intimated by the conversation so we won't be either. The fact is this: when you feel disconnected, ungrounded or like you're wanderi…

If the phrase "Spiritual Intelligence" feels ambiguous and abstract to you, I totally get that. But I promise by the end of this episode you'll have a tangible grasp of how to pull this intelligence into every part of your life. But how do we steward what God is communicating through the intuition, instinct, and counsel He gives through the Holy Sp…

Hey leaders, the uncomfortable truth is this: We're held responsible for stewarding the culture around us ... and yes, we have a high impact on it. Having that said, part of taking responsibility as leaders means owning what we've contributed to the cultures we lead in. Continuing in an established culture, however unhealthy, is a lot easier than s…
  continue reading
 
Cultures truly exist everywhere. Whatever "norms" your friend group has, how your family functions and relates to each other, even the hierarchy of who in a meeting is allowed to speak and when- it's all culture. But what do we do when we discover unhealthy places of settled culture in our lives? Truthfully, you can't steward what you won't claim t…
  continue reading
 
God hasn't made us to be victims of culture. Isn't that a wonderful thing? Instead, we're called to sense, steward, and influence the cultures where we exist. We have authority and a real responsibility to engage, and not passively, wherever we are. We're made to build bridges, to understand instead of judge, and to thrive in beautifully diverse en…

When you think about time do you think about generations or the watch on your hands? Don't worry, both are correct! Today, we're continuing our chat and looking at how to employ the variety time offers us in experience, perspective, and history. Our organizations, our lives in general, benefit from a variety of contributors differing in age and bac…

Timing. As much as we try to get away from its importance we just can't. The unavoidable truth is: Your past affects your present and your present sets a course for your future. Now if that last sentence stressed you out, just simply take a breath. We're talking about some truly good news today. God is not bound to our finite understanding of linea…
  continue reading
 
Timing. Quite an important thing, right? You might disagree on first glance, and if so, I understand. But let me ask you a question, how many times a day do you tap your phone to see what time it is? Timing is an integral part of life and understanding the stewardship of it is equally important. When do you choose to have that hard convo? When do y…

Regardless of what hierarchies and organizations communicate to us, intelligence is not a limited commodity. In fact, when the concentration of problem solving, brainstorming, and innovation is left to a small group of people, the results will reflect that finite contribution. In today's episode, we're moving past being task-oriented and burden-foc…

"It's not WHAT you said. It's HOW you said it." The reason phrases like this linger in our lexicon is because there's something quite true hidden in plain sight. It matters how we present information, what we believe, and how we feel. How well we are heard and received is dependent on a variety of variables. Is our knowledge from a trustworthy sour…

Information is a powerful tool. It can be wielded like a weapon, held carefully, used strategically to build or tear down, and much more, but the point is simple: Information is valuable and using it intelligently might look different than we thought. If we think any intelligence we possess is the head of our lives, beyond Jesus and being submitted…

Vulnerability by itself isn't so much productive as it is emotional waste. Vulnerability is meant to lead us to greater discovery and breakthrough; not be our arrival point. However, understanding what it looks like to employ a healthy sensitivity, awareness, and stewardship of emotions is tantamount to leading well. In today's episode, we're cover…
  continue reading
 
When we invite God's perspective and design to our understanding of intelligence, we see a much fuller picture. Today we're seeing how emotions intersect with every part of our daily lives. But more than simply looking at emotions, we're looking at how God's called us to steward them. After all, vulnerability is not an arrival point. Listen in and …

There’s a difference between being emotional and emotionally intelligent. Now whoever you are, you most likely had a strong reaction to that sentence above. Either you're shouting "Yes" and "Amen" or maybe that hit you like a small pebble tossed underhanded but unannounced. Wherever this truth hits you today, know that this episode is meant exactly…

If our definition of what makes a great leader has become like that soup you leave and forget on the back burner, then it might be time to stir the pot. In today’s show, we’re looking at some different styles of leadership and examining some of their patterns, weaknesses, and strengths. We’re going to see what’s wonderful in variety without flinchi…
  continue reading
 
Have you ever stopped to look at the patterns in your life? Possibly seen a through-line of behavior with a corresponding result? Patterns tell us a lot. Some might’ve been created, others allowed, some merely supported. However, we’re not just talking about the results of these behaviors, actions, or how they’re made. We're talking about seeing th…

We all have a relationship with numbers, that’s just the truth. Some of us love them, but a lot of us are less than fond. You’ll be glad to know that today’s conversation is about far More Than Numbers. Are we talking about logic and patterns? Yes. But we’re also talking about our burdens, pain, and how we allow them to influence each other. Later …
  continue reading
 
As leaders, we have the opportunity to design and create wells of communication that inevitably support the atmospheres we lead in. The way we use our words matter because people matter. “In the beginning was the Word …” And God, the Word Himself, spoke life into the void and life began. If we’re made in His image we’re made to create, speak, and p…
  continue reading
 
Have you ever thought about the words and ways we speak with others as a well? Our language, how we communicate, are places we draw from and inevitably pour out on others. But what if the well we've been drawing from hasn't been the purest water? Today, we're talking about that intersection where Words Meet Reality and the truth that "There are som…
  continue reading
 
Have you ever noticed that what we say is really only a part of what we communicate? That’s because body language, tone, inflection, and space, paired with language, say much More Than Words. In today’s episode, Dr. Fambro is giving us a three-dimensional understanding of linguistic intelligence and its importance in our lives. We’re trekking throu…
  continue reading
 
In this episode, we’re finding out what it looks like to incorporate and search out multiple intelligence in our own lives. It’s one thing to talk theory. It’s another to talk application. But don’t worry, we have quite a fun time doing it. Join us as we get real about the facts, “Our world is facing consequences because people are not awake to the…
  continue reading
 
What if recognizing multiple contributions in others strengthened the way you lead? I’m here to tell you, it does. In this episode we’re talking Intelligent Leadership. You may lead a huge organization, a home, a classroom, a community of people, or lead by wielding influence in a room— The truth is, we’re all leaders somewhere. As leaders, we have…
  continue reading
 
In this episode, Dr. Fambro begins by widening the scope of how we see intelligence in ourselves and others. We quickly see there’s room for every single person around the table to intellectually contribute. By the end of today’s episode, you’ll be certain of it. Our lives, schooling, and backgrounds are not train tracks for our lives and they don’…
