Hour 1: Managing Expectations During the Holidays

What's the danger of the Lone Ranger Christian mentality? Join Steve for a devotional from Blackaby Ministries International about standing with others.

Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he fails, For he has no one to help him up.   Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

In addition, Phil Herndon will have a conversation with Steve about managing our expectations during the holidays. Phil will also give us insight into coping with depression and grief during this season.

Phil uses a dynamic approach to help his clients recover their hearts and redeem their stories. His therapeutic approach is grounded in the Spiritual Root System™, and is informed by the work of Irvin Yalom, Curt Thompson, Dan Siegel, and Dan Allender. He also integrates perspectives from Judeo-Christian traditions, existential philosophy, and pastoral care. He completed graduate school in 1992 with a Master of Arts degree in counseling and religious education. He served as a pastor in Texas for 15 years until joining the Center for Professional Excellence in 2005 where he served as Clinical Director until 2020. Phil became the Clinical Director and co-owner of (what is now) River Tree in 2020 and loves his role in developing, encouraging, and equipping the staff as they walk with people through their life journeys.
