    Aug 13 2025

    Conflict is unavoidable—but it doesn’t have to leave a trail of broken relationships and resentment. Join the hosts of Navigating the 4, as we explore practical ways to address disagreements with honesty, respect, and clarity—turning tense moments into opportunities for understanding and growth. Throughout the episode, we discuss how to stay grounded when emotions run high, how to listen without defensiveness, and how to speak truth in a way that builds bridges instead of burning them. Whether it’s in the workplace, at home, or in your community, you can approach conflict without casualties—and even come out stronger on the other side.

  • Navigating The Topic Of Sex In The Church (Season 1, Episode 6)
    Jul 30 2025

    Let’s face it—talking about sex in church can feel awkward. But avoiding it has left generations struggling in silence, battling shame, and seeking answers elsewhere. Join the hosts of Navigating the 4 as we explore how a healthy, biblical understanding of sex can be taught and modeled in churches today. We’ll discuss the consequences of silence, the dangers of misinformation, and the power of open, grace-filled conversations. Throughout this episode we unpack what it looks like for the church to reclaim this important topic—not with shame or fear, but with truth, honesty, and hope. Whetheryou're a church leader, parent, or someone with questions, this episode invites you into a much-needed conversation the church can’t afford to avoid any longer.

  • Utilizing Personality and Strengths In Leadership (Season 1, Episode 5)
    Jul 23 2025

    What if a quiz could make you a better leader? In this episode, we’re cracking open the world of personality tests — Enneagram, Myers-Briggs, StrengthsFinder — to see if they’re more than just fun facts about ourselves. Can these assessments actually help us lead smarter, connect deeper, and build stronger teams? Or are we just boxing people in with catchy labels?

    Tune in as the Navigating the 4 hosts participate in each of these personality and strengths assessments to shed light on how personality types, strengths, and communication styles can sharpen self-awareness, transform relationships, and improve leadership — if we use them well. We’ll share the insights, pitfalls, and real-world ways to apply what you learn without turning it into a gimmick. Whether you're a skeptic or a fan of these assessments, this conversation will help you think critically about understanding yourself and those you lead.
