Decisions, decisions. An abundance of choices will make you decide what road to take or leave you in the dust if you do nothing. But beware, many roads are often one-way with no exit in sight. Join Lakresha as she chats with her sister about how the consequences of life's choices can be far reaching, with lasting effects that can span a lifetime. If you've ever struggled with your choices and making decisions then this is the episode for you. Being Christian does not exempt us from dealing with choices that are less than ideal and making decisions that are subpar. Nevertheless, God still uses them all to get us right where we need to be! This is proof positive that He always deserves (and gets) the glory!

No, we're not talking marriage vows, yet! In the first half of this episode, Lakresha flies solo as she talks about the impact of holding on to old memories and what could have beens. Reminiscing. It's not for everybody. Sometimes going back to memory lane can lead you to the corner of Disappointment and Nightmares. This is exactly why she intends to be intentional with her thoughts. In the second half of the episode, she is joined by one of her flesh-and-blood sisters as they discuss their giants, marriage goals, and why they love to see other people win!

Self-love. Do you have it? If you want to hear all about how loving yourself is your number one priority then you've come to the wrong place. Don't get us wrong, hosts Larry and Lakresha do believe in having a healthy view of yourself but not at everyone else's expense. Listen in as they explain why they believe loving yourself is not all about loving "you." Instead, they explain why they believe that Christians who truly love themselves not only love Christ, but also love others.

Music is a universal medium that can transcend time. It can bring together people from all walks of life and put you in tune with your emotions. With lyrics, or without, a melody can work wonders. Although all of these things are true, do you take the time to be intentional when determining what you should listen to? Better yet, do you consider what is being fed to your spirit? Larry and Lakresha are no strangers to music. Like many others, this is one area that they both are passionate about. Join them as they discuss how their view of music has evolved along with their spiritual journey.

Yes, it's true. You can spell valentine without love, but should you? Better yet, shouldn't everyday with your significant other be like Valentine's Day? No matter what your take, it's nice to have a universal day dedicated to romantic, often grand, gestures for those who feel so inclined. Listen in as Larry and Lakresha give their perspective on this heavily commercialized "holiday" while chiming in on showing love and affection.

Love. Is it how you feel or what you do? Many of us know that relationships are not all about one person but we still find it hard not to be self-centered. Why is that? Do we not care enough about our partner? Maybe we just refuse to take the spotlight off of ourselves. Join Larry and Lakresha as they dive into what they have learned about love over the course of their 20 year marriage. They'll tell you how they're learning to listen for understanding while continuing to show up anyway. Even when they don't like what they hear, and especially when they don't feel like it!

"So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God." -James 1:19-20 (NKJV)

Listen in to F.L.A.M.E. Talk where you'll find two imperfect people expressing their views on love, life, marriage, faith and all there is in between while basking in God's perfect grace.
