In this episode you will hear:

00:00 Intro

05:00 the essence and impact of forgiveness

#1031 Narcissistic culture war

#1031 Narcissistic culture war

Those people who truly accept themselves do not require the acceptance and affirmation of approval.

Let this be our heartprint.

Ep 248 Interview Sessions with John Eldredge | Discover the Secrets of a Man's Soul

Ep 248 Interview Sessions with John Eldredge | Discover the Secrets of a Man's Soul

On episode 248 I am joined by John Eldredge. John is an author, a counsellor, and a teacher. He is also president of Wild at Heart, a ministry devoted to helping people discover the heart of God, recover their own hearts in God's love, and learn to live in God's Kingdom.

 

John grew up in the suburbs of Los Angeles (which he hated), and spent his boyhood summers on his grandfather’s cattle ranch in eastern Oregon (which he loved).

John met his wife, Stasi, in high school (in drama class). But their romance did not begin until they each came to faith in Christ, after high school.

 

John earned his undergraduate degree in Theatre at Cal Poly, and directed a theatre company in Los Angeles for several years before moving to Colorado with Focus on the Family, where he taught at the Focus on the Family Institute.

 

John earned his master’s degree in Counselling from Colorado Christian University, under the direction of Larry Crabb and Dan Allender. He worked as a counsellor in private practice before launching Wild at Heart in 2000. John and Stasi live in Colorado Springs with their three sons (Samuel, Blaine, and Luke), their golden retriever (Oban), and two horses (Whistle and Kokolo).

 

While all of this is factually true, it somehow misses describing an actual person. He loves the outdoors passionately, and all beauty, Shakespeare, bow hunting, a good cigar, anything having to do with adventure, poetry, March Madness, working in the shop, fly fishing, classic rock, the Tetons, fish tacos, George MacDonald, green tea, buffalo steaks, dark chocolate, wild and open places, horses running, and too much more to name.

 

In this episode you will hear:


00:00 intro

02:58 why don’t need another men’s book
04:48 the stages of the masculine journey - the boy, cowboy, warrior, lover, king, and sage
08:08 the two fundamental needs of little boys
10:08 it is important to discover for yourself that you have got what it takes
14:08 a cry for a father's engagement
18:38 Ryan’s testimony
23:08 why can’t we trust men?
26:58 the cure for the narcissistic life
28:48 Christ the Warrior
32:38 the tools of the enemy
38:58 you need to tell each other your story
42:08 getting hooked up to the one who knows you best and loves you most
45:38 God heals trauma
50:18 John’s Heartprint

#1029 the hierarchy is not the problem

#1029 the hierarchy is not the problem

Note to my younger self... the hierarchy isn't the problem. The spirit of the leader is the problem.

Let's be the types of leader who uses our power to protect people rather use our power over people.

#1028 The great danger for the warrior is not defeat, but success

#1028 The great danger for the warrior is not defeat, but success

As heart-centred leaders, it is not defeat that should concern us, but success.

Defeat is an inward opportunity to grow.

Success is an inward opportunity to ground.

#1027 Never give a sword to a man who can't dance - Confucius

#1027 Never give a sword to a man who can't dance - Confucius

Men need a balance between their heart and mind. A lover and a warrior. A warrior with grace, mercy and compassion.


For good things do not come from a man armed with a sword who can't dance.

#1026 Kahlil Gibran On Prayer

#1026 Kahlil Gibran On Prayer

Kahlil Gibran -

Then the priestess said, Speak to us of Prayer.

     And he answered, saying:

     You pray in your distress and in your need; would that you might pray also in the fullness of your joy and in your days of abundance.

     

     For what is prayer but the expansion of yourself into the living ether?

     And if it is for your comfort to pour your darkness into space, it is also for your delight to pour forth the dawning of your heart.

     And if you cannot but weep when your soul summons you to prayer, she should spur you again and yet again, though weeping, until you shall come laughing.


Can we grateful in the valleys? Grateful in the darkness? or as Brandon Lake says.. sing through the fire and worship from the lions den... even when it doesn’t make sense.


Pour your darkness into space and delight in pouring forth the dawning of your heart.

#1024 Heart-Centred Leaders need this protection

#1024 Heart-Centred Leaders need this protection

Heart-centred leaders who lead with love need to ensure they lead from love and no for love.

They need an awareness of the hidden power dynamics at play in their leadership.

They need to be aware of their needs and the needs of those they lead.

The leader needs to make sure their followers do not look to them as the source of love but are instead directed inward to themselves as the source of that with which they seek.

Jan 26, 202403:36
#1023 Don't be surprised if success no longer motivates you

#1023 Don't be surprised if success no longer motivates you

At our stage of heart-centred development do not be surprised if worldly success doesn’t concern you.


There comes a point in the evolution of every soul where the main concern of the soul no longer becomes the survival of the body but growth of the spirit.


No long are we driven by worldly attainment of success but by the realisation of self.


Life isn’t about what we do with our body. It’s about who we being.


We’re not here to say do things in order to be happy but to be happy while we are doing things.

#1010 Competing Values

#1010 Competing Values

In simple terms, the Cameron and Quinn's Competing Values Framework identifies four main types of values that compete within organisations:

  1. Collaboration (Clan Culture): This value emphasises teamwork, cooperation, and a friendly work environment, similar to a family.

  2. Innovation (Adhocracy Culture): This value emphasises creativity, adaptability, and a willingness to take risks. Organisations with this value prioritise innovation and experimentation.

  3. Results (Market Culture): This value emphasises competitiveness, achievement, and a focus on external factors such as customers and market demands. Organisations with this value prioritise getting the job done and achieving results.

  4. Control (Hierarchy Culture): This value emphasises stability, rules, and a structured environment. Organisations with this value prioritize efficiency, consistency, and a well-controlled work environment.

These values can often conflict within an organisation as different departments or individuals may prioritise one set of values over another. The Competing Values Framework helps organisations understand these competing priorities and work towards a balanced approach to achieve their goals.


In the Competing Values Framework, the values directly compete with each other when they are positioned opposite to one another on the model. Specifically:

  1. Collaboration (Clan Culture) vs. Control (Hierarchy Culture): Clan culture emphasises a friendly and collaborative work environment where teamwork is highly valued. In contrast, Hierarchy culture emphasises a structured and controlled environment with a focus on rules and stability. These two values often compete because a highly collaborative environment might conflict with the need for strict control and adherence to established procedures.

  2. Innovation (Adhocracy Culture) vs. Results (Market Culture): Adhocracy culture values creativity, adaptability, and risk-taking, encouraging innovation and experimentation. On the other hand, Market culture emphasises competitiveness, achievement, and a results-oriented approach. These values can be in direct competition because a strong focus on innovation might sometimes conflict with the immediate need for delivering measurable results and meeting market demands.

In real-world organisational situations, these competing values can create tensions and challenges as different departments or teams may prioritise one set of values over the other, leading to conflicts in decision-making and resource allocation. Balancing these competing values is essential for effective organisational management.

Ep 239 Interview Sessions with Richard Rudd | Gene Keys

Ep 239 Interview Sessions with Richard Rudd | Gene Keys

On episode 239 I welcome Richard Rudd, founder of Gene Keys to the show.

 

A teacher, mystic and award-winning poet, Richard’s inner journey began early in life as he experienced strange energies rushing throughout his body, culminating in a major spiritual experience at the age of 29. Emerging from what he calls ‘a field of limitless light’ that lasted 3 days and 3 nights, Richard was entrusted with a sacred teaching – the wisdom of the Gene Keys.

 

A born explorer, Richard has studied with great teachers in the East, travelled through the Himalayas, the Pacific, the Americas, and the Arctic. Earning a master’s degree in metaphysics and literature from Edinburgh University, he went on to work in the film industry in Australia, trained as a teacher of Chi Kung in Thailand and sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on a small yacht. During this time, he lived in Manhattan, Oregon and Hawaii before finally returning to the UK in 1998, where he met Marian his wife.

 

Over the following years they had three children and moved to Devon in southern England. Throughout his adventures Richard has explored his love of writing and in 2006 he won the FISH international poetry award in Ireland.

 

All Richard’s travels and studies coalesced into a synthesis in 2002 when he began to write and conceive the Gene Keys. It took seven years to write the book and understand its teachings and applications.

 

Today Richard continues to expand the wisdom that he was gifted, remaining always a student of the Gene Keys while teaching all around the world.

 

In 2019, Richard was named on the Watkins list of The 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People.
