Faith is Belief Put into Action

Speak Kind Words to Your Spouse: Find simple ways to compliment and encourage your spouse every day.

Spend Quality Time with Your Kids: Make memories with your children that they’ll always remember.

Serve Your Community: Find ways to care for the less-fortunate around you–whether serving them a meal or helping with yard work.

Share Wisdom with Others: Be a source of wisdom and counsel for those who are making decisions in life.

Seek Out Ways to Put Others First: Ultimately, it’s all about living a selfless life and putting others ahead of yourself.

Why Engage, Educate, and Equip Others

Daily Huddle- Encourage

In life, we are responsible for 3 things: engaging others, educating others, and equipping others. So today, let’s talk a little bit about why it’s so crucial to take on these roles and do them well…

Engaging others well means listening to people, caring for people, and advising people. By choosing to engage, you’re choosing to put the needs of others ahead of your own.

Why Educate? 

We all have something to offer the world. So what’s stopping you from educating others about what you’ve learned? Be quick to offer your wisdom and guidance!

How to Earn Respect

DFF Respect

We all want respect. So how do we earn it? Well, here are 3 simple ways to earn respect every day…

1. By Acting with Kindness:

Caring for others is the first step toward earning their respect. The more you make someone feel valued, the more they will value you and your opinion.

2. By Acting with Honor:

It’s no secret that each person is unique in their own way. So the sooner we honor others’ differences, the sooner they will come to respect us.

3. By Acting with Dignity:

No person is worth more than another. So when we choose to act with dignity and treat others equally, respect is sure to follow.

How to Build Up Your Son’s Confidence

Daily Huddle MEN

Your son needs a hero.

He needs someone who will cheer him on, someone who will love him well, and someone who will build him up. Someone like you…his father. So here are 3 things to share with your son that will build his confidence.

  1. Tell Him He’s Capable of Anything: Teach your son that determination and dedication are the tools to success. Once he understands this, be a source of encouragement as he pursues his passions in life.
  2. Tell Him He Makes You Proud: Affirm your son’s character by sharing that you’re proud of him simply for who he is…not for anything he has accomplished.
  3. Tell Him He Can Always Count on You: And finally, be sure to share with your son that you will always be there for him. No matter what highs or lows life throws his way, remind him that you will never leave his side.

How else can you build up your son’s confidence? Simply leave your suggestions in a comment below.

Enjoying the Journey of Life

Daily Huddle Journey

It’s all too easy to miss the special moments in life. Why? Because we busy ourselves with worries over the future. We’re so caught up in controlling and planning the future, that we miss out on the moments that are right in front of us.

So today, let’s discuss 3 ways to enjoy the journey of life:

  1. Remember to Laugh. An easy way to enjoy life is to laugh loudly and laugh often. This gives us a chance to appreciate the joy of living a full life.
  2. Remember to Be Thankful. One of the most important parts of enjoying life is being thankful. Maybe this means listing out what you’re grateful for or maybe this means saying a prayer of thanks. However you choose to do it, find a way to be thankful every day.
  3. Remember to Enjoy Your Family. And finally, enjoying life means enjoying life’s most precious gift: your family. So stop rushing through your days and take time to love your kids well before they grow up.

What’s holding you back from enjoying the journey of life? Comment below with your thoughts.

3 Reasons to Go to Church with Your Spouse

Daily Huddle Church

Here at the Dungy Family Foundation, we believe church has the power to encourage, engage, and strengthen your marriage. How? Check out the 3 ways attending church together can empower your relationship with your spouse:

  1. Church sets God at the center of your marriage. First and foremost, the best part of attending church with your spouse is how God becomes the foundation of your relationship. With weekly encouragement to continually pursue Christ, you and your spouse are better equipped to lean on the Lord no matter how difficult life becomes.
  2. Church ensures you and your spouse are on the same page. Next, church is a great way to align your priorities, decisions, and convictions with your spouse. By establishing similar mindsets, arguments and uncertainties will be more easily navigated.
  3. Church creates community for your family. And finally, church is an incredible source of community. Not only will small groups provide accountability and guidance for your marriage, but it will also give your kids the opportunity to grow in their faith. Then together, you and your spouse can better train up your children with strong morals and a love of the Lord.

What are some of the other benefits of church? Comment below with your thoughts!
