What is In The Cool Zone? Part 2

Getting "in the cool zone" is not only about how one thinks about information. It is also about training yourself to take control of your emotions and your body to enable you to maintain your thought process. 

 The techniques shared here help position your emotions and body for success. They get in your way more often than you might think! What we focus on here will allow you to absorb what is coming at you while keeping your thoughts clear, staying cool and continuing to use your mind. 

"Is it possible we don't talk about 
the Lord more often in public
because we might get push back?"

Life is moving quickly and w e often find ourselves in stressful situations. Sometimes these situations can come as a surprise and throw us off. Other times we know we are headed into the fire. 

 Since we know this is the case let's take some time to ready ourselves so we can be the person we know we can be and certainly the person the Lord intended us to be. 
Train yourself to be godly.

What are the awkward settings that one might find themselves in?

  • A disagreement with a friend a boss or others.
  • Simple misunderstandings.
  • Having your beliefs challenged.
  • Accusations against your character.
  • Sharing the Gospel.
  • Sharing or debating philosophical ideas.

Discipleship Unveiled exists to develop lovers of Jesus Christ in the skill of managing the massive amount of information that comes our way. We want to do this in the state of a thoughtful and peaceful disposition through stressful situations by aligning our body and emotions.

Take Action!

When you are offended how do you feel? 
Angry. Sad. Guilty. Confused. Depressed. Vengeful. Helpless. Lonely.
We don't need to practice these things. They just come.

When you are offended HOW do you think? 
Thinking under pressure must be practiced. It is a skill and an effective follower of Jesus learns how to do it.

This is where we are going. I'm mean... if you think you can. :-)

Please, add your thoughts in the comment section.

Armor of God | Watchful Perseverance

Image
The armor of God has been a topic that has been difficult to get our minds wrapped around. What it is and how we put it on, has seemed to be a bit mysterious. So maybe by looking at the effect of the armor we can get a better understanding of how to put the armor on. We previously looked at  The Word of God , so let's take the next piece. We're leaving in,  The Effect of Armor,  section here for continuity. The Effect of Armor The most prominent place the armor of God is listed is in  Ephesians 6:14-18 NKJV .  Each piece of armor has an effect. Since it is spiritual armor, and we are physically oriented, it can be difficult to understand what is happening when we have it on. One of the things we know about armor is that once we are in the battle, we shouldn't have to think about the armor. It will passively protect us and we shouldn't have to give it another thought. We inspect, test and repair the armor on a regular basis and ensure it is fitted corr

Galvanize Your Heart

Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. What and how you think about life is extremely important. There is also another aspect of thinking that needs to be considered as well. That would be the priority of thinking. The scripture in Romans 12:2 NLT  does not ask us to change the way we feel. We need to change the way we think. Thinking is the part of your heart that the Lord is working on. So let's put a high priority on how we think. Pray. Think first. The emotions support and reinforce our resolve. The body gets us there and does the physical work. God is glorified. Think Like Jesus Thinks So what and how do we think? Have you ever noticed that when Jesus answered a question, he either asked another question back or answered the question they should have asked to find salvation? Jesus certainly did answer their question but more importantly He would first give another answer to a question they did not ask, but they should have. The q
