Subscribe to the Strong By Design Podcast Show http://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com Baptism does not bring salvation. So then, why do believers in Jesus Christ as the Son of God get baptized? The concept of baptism seems so simple, get dunked under water by a church pastor and recognize Jesus as your Lord and Savior. But there are so many differing beliefs about ‘why’ we should or should not be baptized and when that should occur. Why do babies get baptized in many denominations of the Christian faith? And what are the three big reasons why adults should get baptized? On today’s SBD episode, our guest Jared Haley, pastor and video production specialist for Critical Bench, answers all of these common questions regarding baptism in the church. "Baptism is not for salvation... My decision to follow Jesus and my salvation, I have to be old enough to make that decision in my own heart and for my own life. Nobody can make that decision for me." - Jared Haley 🎧 Listen to the FULL Episode on your favorite Podcast Platform iTunes - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/do-baby-baptisms-count-ft-jared-haley/id1383270948?i=1000562197818 SMARTLINK - https://link.chtbl.com/sbdep229 Time Stamps 00:00 – The power of walking in obedience to God 00:48 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design’ podcast 05:55 – Get to know today’s special guest, Jared Haley 07:40 – Jared shares his kids’ baptism experience 12:56 – Is Baptism necessary for salvation? 21:01 – Baby baptism vs. baby dedication: What’s the difference? 26:51 – The true meaning of Baptism 32:24 – Why was Jesus baptized? 34:08 – Jared on why you should get baptized 46:33 – Is baptism a public declaration of your Faith?

Subscribe to the Strong By Design Podcast Show http://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com Overcoming the victim mindset begins with you and some accountability. If you see yourself as someone who does not have control over their own life, that everyone is responsible for your feelings, actions and results, then you are suffering from the victim mentality. Your actions can absolutely dictate what does or does not happen to you. In life it is necessary to get uncomfortable to change and to grow. Having the hard talks when you don't want to and the necessary confrontations in the workplace, at home and in any meaningful relationship. Today on SBD coach Chris Wilson shares his personal struggles and successes with accountability and what in his opinion are the best 'simple' strategies to begin holding yourself accountable in life. "We must train ourselves to use new language in our own heads. The words we use internally matter. What you tell yourself repeatedly you eventually believe... right or wrong." -Chris Wilson 🎧 Listen to the FULL Episode on your favorite Podcast Platform iTunes - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/are-you-the-victim-ft-chris-wilson/id1383270948?i=1000559568879 SMARTLINK - https://link.chtbl.com/sbdep227 Time Stamps 00:00 – The true meaning of living in the present moment 1:17 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design’ podcast 7:19 – Victim mindset: Ways to navigate through it 11:44 – The power of knowing your ‘WHY’ 14:34 – The importance of living in the moment 16:59 – Host Chris Wilson on dealing with difficult times in life 19:43 – Discover the best strategies to get out of the victim mindset 25:38 – The power of positive self-talk 26:40 – The importance of being grateful // Connect w/ Chris: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100006155079070 Instagram: Connect w/ CriticalBench: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/criticalbench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbench Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecriticalbench Official Websites: http://www.CriticalBench.com and https://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com/ #victimmindset #overcomevictimmentality #growthmindset #accountability #selfaccountability #knowyourWHY #positiveselftalk #optimism #gratitude #attitudeofgratitude #chriswilson #christianpodcast #strongbydesign #strongbydesignpodcast #criticalbench

To lose weight perhaps, build muscle or just feel better in your own skin? Listen, we are all busy people, and we all want to look and feel our best. But life is moving at 1,000 miles per hour every single day with limited time to get stuff done. We hardly have time enough to breathe and do anything good for ourselves. So, the BIG question is this: What’s the difference between people who find the time to GSD while others get stuck and continue to struggle year after year? You’d be shocked to discover that achieving our best physique and optimal health is far less complicated than you’ve been led to believe! Our guest today on SBD is Charlie Johnson of Charlie Johnson Fitness.

Subscribe to the Strong By Design Podcast Show http://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com Above all other things, people ultimately want to find peace in this life. Things often feel out of our control regardless of how much effort or thought we apply. So, in this uncertain, fast pace grind we call life, where do we turn for peace, love and truth? To technology? What about high-priced objects? How about other people experiencing the same frustrations and struggles as us? Nothing fills that hole in our soul like being in relationship with our Creator. On today’s SBD podcast, special guest Jared Haley and host Chris Wilson talk about life and the path to inner peace. “When I think about trying to find this inner peace through that relationship, it's remembering that it's a relationship with the Father and the Son... and God truly wants what's best for me." - Jared Haley 🎧 Listen to the FULL Episode on your favorite Podcast Platform iTunes - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finding-peace-in-a-chaotic-world-ft-jared-haley/id1383270948?i=1000558139775 SMARTLINK - https://link.chtbl.com/sbdep225 Time Stamps 00:52 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design’ podcast 04:20 – Get to know Jared Haley of Team Critical Bench 07:46 – The true meaning of Peace 12:04 – Jared on where do we find peace in today's world 16:19 – The importance of peace and harmony in the workplace 20:04 – What does a healthy relationship with God look like? 28:03 – Love ≠ acceptance: Jared on what does it really mean to be loving 35:20 – Is there such a thing as Truth? 41:13 – Jared on how to find peace with God 48:42 – The power of walking by Faith & living in Faith Connect w/ Jared: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jaredsaria Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jaredsaria/ Connect w/ CriticalBench: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/criticalbench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/criticalbench Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecriticalbench Official Websites: http://www.CriticalBench.com and https://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com/ #innerpeace #findingpeace #peacewithgod #relationshipwithgod #intimacywithgod #faith #christianfaith #poweroffaith #walkbyfaith #liveinfaith #christianpodcast #jaredhaley #strongbydesign #strongbydesignpodcast #criticalbench

Subscribe to the Strong By Design Podcast Show http://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com Most men today are struggling, grappling for their identity. What or Who is “the standard” for being a real man? What does a good human being look like, a good husband and father… someone we all aspire to be? In this life of imperfection, sin, poor choices and self-doubt, there is only one man that meets the needs of all men (all people) and His name is Jesus. He is the Standard. He provides a plan and sets the standard that is relatively unknown to modern Christian men and really men everywhere seeking wisdom, strength, courage and love. Today’s guest, Josh Khachadourian, is the author of The Standard, as well as a husband, father, leader, coach and host of the ‘Raising The Standard’ podcast. "A real man can show his emotions... and he's just as much a man when he's on his knees, teaching a child or demonstrating an emotion that others might say 'oh that's too vulnerable.” -Josh Khachadourian Time Stamps 00:00 – Understanding masculinity 00:59 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design’ podcast 3:55 – Meet Josh Khachadourian, author of the best-seller 'The Standard' 07:48 – Josh recounts his childhood and spiritual upbringing 11:06 – ‘The Standard’: Discover the inspiration behind the book 17:02 – Josh shares what it’s like living with the Christian faith 21:30 – Discover the true meaning of masculinity 25:43 – Who sets the standard for men? 32:04 – Josh talks about the book’s clever format 36:25 – Meekness≠Weakness: Josh dives deep into the meekness of Jesus 47:33 – Josh gives great advice to those who want to be a better man 54:48 – What’s next for ‘The Standard’?

Subscribe to the Strong By Design Podcast Show http://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com Often times what makes an athlete a superstar isn’t how high they jump, how fast they run or how hard they hit… it’s their ability to perform under pressure and how they take care of their body. Sure, to be an elite athlete in peak condition requires years of hard work, a commitment to physical exertion, disciplined nutrition and relentless focus most people don’t possess but it also demands relaxation and rest. Ever hear how professionals are able to block out the noise and just slow everything down around them? They achieve a state of FLOW. This vital trait goes much deeper than some deep breathing exercises and concentration techniques. Today’s conversation on the Strong By Design show explores the behind the scenes world of endurance and high level athletes and all that it takes to keep the body and the mind firing on all cylinders.
