Morning DingDashers
- from a sunny UK, with blue skies.

A good drying day - I've got a loaf of washing in the machine and a load on the line and we're all well into our first day of a new working week.

Today is a book editing day for me.

Endurance, Know Thyself, S04E009

https://vimeo.com/705834029

This week we are discussing the idea of knowing our own strengths, weaknesses, and temptations in order to better develop in our physical fitness and in the faith.

Endurance is your weekly spiritual workout, whether you think of yourself as a beginner, an intermediate, or advanced!

#GoDeeper
Andy B delves deeper into this week’s theme from the angle of knowing who we are in Christ, i.e., knowing that we are free from our sins.

He unpacks Psalm 139:23 by pointing out that being a Christian not only involves God encouraging us but also involves God cleaning out all the sin in our lives.

GoDo
Steven and Nathan discuss this week’s theme, “Know Thyself”. They provide three useful challenges for us to #GoDo.

- Know your strengths
- Know your weaknesses
- Know your temptations

Family Prayer Time, Dress, S01E011

https://vimeo.com/707319114

Peter & JoJo get together to encourage us, as always – to pray as a family. And they continue their series on using objects to help us stay focused in prayer. This week, JoJo & Peter continue to inspire us into praying for different countries, nations, or places in the world by using, this time, the traditional dress or clothing associated with a particular country.

Peter and JoJo encourage us to use souvenirs or items or photographs of a dress or item of clothing, which are synonymous with a country to remind us of that country for which we want to pray.

With a photograph of Clogs in front of them Peter and JoJo pray for the Netherlands.

We can’t help thinking of the nursery rhyme about a mouse with clogs on, well I declare – going clip-clippety-clop on the stair!

Marriage Matters, Work It Out, S01E015

https://vimeo.com/705791453

Introduction
In this week’s Marriage Matters, Andy B and Jo talk about work, whether both husband and wife work, whether one spouse stays at home or whether one or both spouses work away. Whatever your situation, whether usual or temporary, we need to consider how our work fits with our marriage – sort of work life balance but focusing on work spouse balance!

Andy and Jo affirm the importance of work but consider how work can have positive and negative effects on our marriages, noting how we can spend too much time at work, not switch off from work and not connect in with our spouse enough.

Andy, as usual, makes sense of it all with scripture verses:

1 Thessalonians 4:11
2 Thessalonians 3:10
Colossians 3:23
You could also check Proverbs 31 where there is some good stuff about working! [READ MORE]

Another day is upon us here for the Berry Bunch.

I ordered our branded t-shirts (we had a miracle gift) on Thursday, so looking forward to those once they're ready. But, today, is our first day filming with our brand new fancy camera (another miracle gift) and extra studio lighting (another answer to prayer as I got a brand new set half price).

I've also found some really good logo stings. If you don't know what they are, I've added one here.

Onwards

Oh, my friend, I'm praying for you and your wife lots!

what happened after your parents said you had to leave your home?
