In the Red

You Did What?!?

🌟 Welcome to a compelling episode of the In the Red Podcast with Pastor Anthony Hart! We're diving deep into the importance of surrounding yourself with a village of wise counsel, those who won't hesitate to ask, 'You did what?' when your decisions miss the mark.
🤔 Picture this: NBA player Draymond Green and his pattern of poor behavior on and off the court. We examine how his hot-headed reactions and questionable choices have raised eyebrows. The crucial takeaway here is that even a professional athlete like Green needs people who will challenge him rather than enable his actions.
💡 Our host takes a reflective journey through his own life and marriage, highlighting the invaluable role of diverse perspectives in rounding out decision-making. He shares personal stories of how accountability from his wife and others has provided a more well-rounded perspective.
📖 Drawing wisdom from the Book of Proverbs, we explore verses that underscore the importance of seeking guidance and counsel. These biblical insights reveal that wise counsel leads to safety and victory in decision-making.
🔄 The key takeaway is for you to evaluate your own inner circle. Do you have enough diversity and accountability within it to ensure you're constructively challenged when needed? Are there voices missing from your village of counsel?
💪 As you listen, consider these action items:
Reflect on those in your life who readily ask, 'You did what?' to hold you accountable.
Ponder past scenarios where wise counsel could have greatly improved your decisions.
Determine if your inner circle lacks certain voices or perspectives, and take steps to invite diversity and accountability.
Make a commitment to welcome constructive feedback rather than just seeking supporters.
Embrace challenges from others as a valuable step before making major decisions.
Join us on this enlightening journey towards building a village of wise counsel that will guide you toward better decision-making and greater personal growth.

Favored and Approved

Welcome to another enlightening episode of the In the Red Podcast with your host, Anthony Hart. In this thought-provoking installment titled "Favored and Approved," we embark on a profound journey into the essence of faith and the pursuit of something far more enduring than fleeting desires.
 
In a world often preoccupied with checking boxes and measuring faith by religious routines, Anthony challenges us to reevaluate our priorities. He reminds us that true faith transcends mere time spent in church or reading the Bible; it resides in open and growing hearts. As we venture deeper into this episode, you'll discover the peace that eludes those who fixate solely on outward religiosity.
 
Our pursuit should lead us toward God's steadfast love—a wellspring of life, peace, and divine favor. This love isn't meant to be hoarded but generously shared, cascading like a waterfall onto others in our lives.
 
As Anthony delves into the concept of mutual upbuilding, he emphasizes that everyone's spiritual journey is unique. We're encouraged to meet people where they are, fostering growth in ways that resonate with their hearts and circumstances.
 
Furthermore, this episode underscores the transformative power of living as a radiant light, rather than solely admonishing others. By modeling God's love through our actions and attitudes, we have the potential to inspire change without uttering a word.
 
In this season of reflection and giving, consider these actionable steps:
Embrace an open and receptive heart before God this Christmas, shifting your focus from mere routines to genuine connection.
Identify and redirect your attention from fleeting distractions to the enduring love of God.
Seek opportunities to meet people where they are, contributing to their growth and yours.
Live as a beacon of God's love, illuminating the path for others and focusing less on condemnation.

Haste Makes Waste

In this thought-provoking episode of the In the Red Podcast, hosted by Anthony Hart, we embark on a journey to embrace a life filled with intentionality and diligence, while bidding farewell to the relentless pursuit of haste. Anthony passionately defines haste as the hurried, often frantic actions driven by external pressures and desires, juxtaposed with the concept of diligence, characterized by steady, earnest, and purposeful effort.
 
Drawing wisdom from sacred scriptures, Anthony delves into biblical verses warning us of the perils of haste, which can lead to poverty, and the rewards of diligence, which pave the way to abundance. He cautioningly reminds us of the pitfalls of chasing riches, which can result in self-inflicted consequences, including poor decision-making and fractured relationships.
 
This podcast inspires a mindset shift towards finding solace in rest, appreciating the blessings we have in the present, and nurturing a spirit of gratitude. As action items, Anthony encourages listeners to reflect on their recent efforts, purposefully seek rest and re-centering, engage in heartfelt conversations with loved ones about life's pace, express thankfulness for current blessings, and seize opportunities to bless others generously during this season of abundance. Join us on this transformative journey towards a more deliberate and fulfilling life.

Presently Present

Welcome back to another episode of the "In the Red Podcast" with your host, Anthony Hart. Whether you're a long-time listener or this is your first time here, we value your presence and believe that everyone, including you, plays an essential role in the conversation we're about to have.
 
This podcast aims to inspire meaningful dialogue and provide fresh perspectives. Our goal is to make you think, challenge your beliefs, and encourage you to converse with those around you. We live in a world filled with arguments and debates, but we truly need more genuine conversation to share perspectives, listen, learn, and grow together.
 
Anthony reflects on the power of trust in these conversations. Trust is built when people listen and witness the consistency between words and actions. Just as in his role as a pastor, Anthony learned that true impact comes from sharing moments in conversation, fostering trust, and being an example through actions.
 
Anthony introduces the central theme of this episode: the distinction between "presence" and "being present." He emphasizes how our culture often prioritizes having a commanding "presence," trying to stand out and demand attention. However, this focus on presence can lead to a superficial need for validation and attention, turning people into beggars for recognition.
 
In contrast, "being present" means connecting genuinely with others, offering value, and serving rather than demanding attention. It's about listening, sharing, and walking alongside others, even in their struggles. Anthony believes this distinction is crucial in various aspects of life, from family dynamics to business leadership.
 
Anthony also discusses his experience with The Founder Con Christian Business Conference, where they prioritize speakers who are present on stage and throughout the event, engaging in conversations and fostering connections.
 
He urges listeners to apply this understanding of presence and being present in their own lives, suggesting that it can bring transformation to family relationships, workplaces, and spiritual growth. He emphasizes that God is always present with us, and we should embrace this presence in our everyday lives.
 
In conclusion, Anthony challenges listeners to consider whether they are trying to cultivate a commanding presence or truly being present with those around them. He encourages everyone to be present, listen, and connect with others, as it is in these moments that real change and transformation can occur.
 
Thank you for tuning in to this episode of the "In the Red Podcast." Have a blessed and meaningful week ahead, and remember to be present with those who matter most in your life.

What is Up With the Attitude?

In this episode of the In the Red Podcast, host Anthony Hart dives deep into the topic of attitudes and how they shape our lives. He begins by sharing his own wisdom and experiences gained over the years.
 
The episode starts with a discussion about the word "attitude" and its impact on our lives. Anthony explores how many people can relate to moments when they or someone they know had a bad attitude. He highlights the importance of understanding attitudes and their effects.
 
Anthony had the opportunity to speak to middle school students and found that they were discussing attitudes, both good and bad. This inspired him to explore the concept further. He shares a thought-provoking definition of attitude: "A mental position with regard to a factor, state, or a feeling or emotion toward a factor or state."
 
He delves into the idea that attitudes can become a lifestyle, shifting from momentary emotions to a habitual state of readiness. Anthony emphasizes that a bad attitude can lead to rejecting good things in life and missing opportunities.
 
The episode continues with a discussion of two types of attitudes: the negative attitude and the "have to" attitude. Anthony encourages listeners to shift from negative attitudes by intentionally seeking the good in everything, even challenging situations.
 
He then tackles the "have to" attitude, highlighting the difference between viewing tasks as obligations versus opportunities. Anthony explains how the "get to" attitude can transform our lives, making us more open to experiencing abundance and freedom.
 
The podcast encourages listeners to question their attitudes and understand the "why" behind their actions. Shifting from "have to" to "get to" attitudes can lead to a more positive and impactful life.
 
In conclusion, Anthony Hart leaves listeners with a powerful message: "Take notice of your attitude. Change it from 'I have to' to 'I get to.' Embrace positivity, and remember that these small shifts can make you a difference-maker in the world around you."

Lost Your Motivation? Move Your Mass!

In this episode of the "In the Red" Podcast, host Anthony Hart discusses the difference between motivation and momentum. He emphasizes that constantly seeking motivation from external sources can be counterproductive and that true growth requires self-activation and movement.
 
Anthony encourages listeners to recognize their own potential and mass (the space they occupy) and take action in the present moment instead of relying on external motivation. He urges them to step out of their comfort zones, whether in physical fitness, mental growth, or any other aspect of life, and start moving to gain momentum toward their goals.
