The first one is spiritual; the second one is physical\u2014how you\u2019re eating, how you\u2019re exercising, etc. This third one\u2014relational\u2014is one where we need trainers, I think. \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Ronnie:<\/strong> I think we probably need more training in relationships than we do with taking care of ourselves physically; because in reality, there are a lot more helps there than it would be on the other. And there\u2019s probably a lot more healthy models in the fitness realm of the physical than it is in the relational.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>6:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWe live in a very dysfunctional day, where it\u2019s all over family; it\u2019s all over churches; it\u2019s all over government\u2014it\u2019s all over relationships, whether we\u2019re on a ballfield or wherever it may be. We are living out the <em>opposite<\/em> of what Jesus would want us to live and about being in healthy relationships.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> Dennis and Barbara have been working on a book that\u2019s coming out, here, in another month or two on parenting. One of the four core areas that you and Barbara address in this book\u2014one of the things parents need to instruct their children in\u2014is how to have healthy relationships: what that looks like, how to be good friend, how to seek and grant forgiveness, how to live in harmony with another person.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> If you think about it, the Great Commandment is all about relationships.

That call of unconditional love is not just to our spouse; but it\u2019s to brothers and sisters in Christ and people that we would classify as perhaps spiritual brothers, but we have relationship with them.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> You had a friend by the name of Ron, who, early in your ministry, sat you down and gave you\u2014I guess what you would say would be the greatest lesson on love you have ever learned.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Ronnie:<\/strong> Yes, probably so.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> Share with our listeners what he told you.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Ronnie:<\/strong> He said: \u201cYou know, Ronnie, you are going to lose some folks.

The whole power of what Dave Ramsey calls \u201coutrageous generosity\u201d cannot occur apart from the entire commitment that God owns everything, and I own absolutely nothing.

My life verse is the same as a good friend of yours\u2014used to be\u2014he\u2019s now in heaven: Adrian Rogers. His life verse was Psalm 112: verses 1, 2. If you\u2019ll see my Bible, it\u2019s got the handprint of my granddaughter, who only lived seven days: Might Molly we called her.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Ronnie: <\/strong>Wow.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis: <\/strong>I started my day in the middle of \u201c30 Days of Praise.\u201d I\u2019ve been reading the Psalms, spending a lot of times in the Psalms. I\u2019ve been taking note of how many of the Psalms begin, like this one does: \u201cPraise the Lord! Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who greatly delights in His commands. His offspring will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.\u201d \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>19:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tJust take a look sometime, when you are reading the Psalms, how many times it tells you, \u201cPraise the Lord,\u201d \u201cPraise His name.\u201d \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Bob:<\/strong> I guess we don\u2019t do that naturally; we have to be told; don\u2019t we?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Dennis:<\/strong> It\u2019s what Ronnie was talking about\u2014gratitude. What\u2019s God trying to do there? For me\u2014I don\u2019t know about anybody else\u2014but for me, I needed 30 days of praise; because I\u2019m facing some challenges that I need to stop and just: \u201cThank You, God. I praise Your Name. You\u2019re in charge; I\u2019m not. I yield to You. I surrender afresh to You. Praise the Lord!\u201d\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tIt\u2019s not a Christian clich\u00e9, by the way; it\u2019s genuine. I think that\u2019s what you are after in your book\u2014it\u2019s getting people to look at the gauges\u2014whether they are spiritual, physical, financial, relational, or emotional\u2014and make sure you read them right, and pay attention and make the main thing the main thing, and deal with your stuff.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>20:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Ronnie:<\/strong> You know, one of the things that is so important is what we read in \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t1 Thessalonians 5, verse 23: \u201cNow may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely.

Think of your life in those five gauges. God wants to set each one of those elements apart for His use and His glory. Somehow, we have got to discipline ourselves, where we have the power to check the gauges, not rationalize the gauges. Even the other day, I had to do something in relationship to this book; and I got under conviction, reading my own book\u2014[Laughter]\u2014\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>21:00<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\u2014because, you know, I hadn\u2019t dialed in at that moment; I was really involved in a lot of things.
