Greetings Bootcampers! In this episode our guys talk about the process of weighing out big decisions. Bob shares a personal update and Jimbo talks about the upcoming battle of the Boot.  The annual bet is on once again-who will be wearing the other’s team colors?

Here are some of the highlights of this week’s EP.

When you are weighing big decisions here’s a helpful process:

  • Pray
    • Scripture Support (James 1:5 CSB): “Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God—who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly—and it will be given to him.”
  • Spend Time in the Word
    • Has God Given Us an Example?
      • Scripture Support (Psalm 119:105 CSB): “Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path.”
    • Did Scripture Speak to This Specifically?
    • Are There Commands to Obey, Are There Warnings to Heed?
      • Scripture Support (2 Timothy 3:16-17 CSB): “All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.”
  • Give Yourself Time
    • Scripture Support (Proverbs 14:29 CSB): “A patient person shows great understanding, but a quick-tempered one promotes foolishness.”
    • Scripture Support (Ecclesiastes 3:1 CSB): “There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven.”
  • Walk Around the Issue – See It from a Variety of Points
    • Those Who Are Making the Decision
    • Those Who Will Be Impacted by the Decision
    • Immediately
    • In the Future
  • Seek Wise Counsel
    • Scripture Support (Proverbs 11:14 CSB): “Without guidance, a people will fall, but with many counselors there is deliverance.”
    • Scripture Support (Proverbs 19:20 CSB): “Listen to advice and accept discipline, and you will be wise later in life.”
  • Let All of This Marinate
    • Scripture Support (Psalm 46:10 CSB): “Stop your fighting, and know that I am God, exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth.”
    • Scripture Support (Isaiah 30:15 CSB): “For the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said: ‘You will be delivered by returning and resting; your strength will lie in quiet confidence. But you are not willing.'”
  • Decide
    • Scripture Support (Proverbs 3:5-6 CSB): “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding; in all your ways know him, and he will make your paths straight.”
    • Scripture Support (Proverbs 16:9 CSB): “A person’s heart plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps.”
