The average person makes 35,000 choices a day. (226 of them are just about food!) While it’s true that our choices are not the only thing that shapes our future, they play a huge part. In fact, we are where we are today primarily because of the choices we have made. Our choices have consequences in big and small ways, and when we make great choices, we get to partner with God in shaping our future.
In this episode, Pastor Danny shares six strategies to help us get better at making great choices:
1. Decide ahead of time.
2. Play the movie.
3. Get all the information.
4. Run your decisions past a trusted, wiser friend.
5. Look at what the Scriptures say.
6. Ask, “Does this choice help me get to where I want to go?”
