Practical Soulfood For Successful People

My Core Belief: We Don’t Have A Clue How Great We Already Are And How Great We Can Become.

Surprise! I’ve changed my website. No more photos. No more colors. No more distractions. I’ve stripped it bare and decided to focus on the meat of the matter: Article after article after article, I want this to be your ultimate source for practical soulfood for successful people on the internet universe. This simple yet massive website is filled to the brim, overflowing the best down-to-earth, inspirational articles you can ever find.

Some of you may be saying, “Bo, this website isn’t for me. I’m not successful.” Well, what’s your measuring stick of success? To me, any human being who is striving to grow is already successful. Are you striving to grow? If your answer is YES, then welcome to YOUR website.

Through my articles, I want to change your measuring stick of success to a more accurate one. I want to give you a measuring stick that will encompass the deepest, most profound things that make us human beings. (That’s why it’s “Soulfood”.)

One more thing about success: It’s also pervasive. It can’t be isolated to one area. For example, a person who is successful in his job but whose family is disintegrating isn’t successful at all. So through this website, I want you to experience success in all areas of your life.

• Spiritually, you’ll grow closer to God.

Help Me Preach My Talks—And You’ll Get The Preacher’s Blessing!

You’ve Been My Audience; Will You Be My Research Team Too?

I don’t want to be selfish.

I want to share with you the blessings that I receive as a Preacher.

People don’t know this, but when I preach, the person who gets the most blessed is the preacher himself. Why? Because I spend enormous amounts of time studying, reflecting, and rehearsing my talk. Because of this, I don’t only listen to the talk, I also munch on it, chew it, and digest it more. So the chance that I apply these truths in my life is greater.

Today, I ask myself, “With the power of the internet in our hands, why is preaching still a one-way street?” It shouldn’t be. You can help me give these talks! And in the process, share the blessings I receive as a Preacher.

So I’m writing down here the summaries of new Teaching Series for the weekly FEASTs for July, August, and September 2007, entitled How To Get Rid Of Bad Habits Now. It will be a powerful teaching series because all of us have bad habits! So when you join the weekly FEAST at Valle Verde Country Club (Beside ULTRA), Pasig every Sunday at 9:00am, you’ll hear a better talk!

If you live abroad or in the provinces, you can catch these talks either by (1) ordering the Audio CD or DVD, (2) watching it on ABC 5 every Tuesday at 10:30pm, or (3) watching it on www.preacherinbluejeans.com Ultimately, you’ll find these truths in book form—and together, we’ll bless millions of people.

Read the topics. I prepared a “head, heart, and hand” goal for each talk. “Head” means what I want you to learn, “heart” means what I want you to feel during the talk, and “hand” means what I want you to do after the talk.

Next: Write on the comments box below short (nothing longer than 8 sentences) personal testimonies, stories, jokes, quotations, analogies, skits, popular song lyrics or popular movie scenes that will help explain or expound any of the talks below.

Thanks for being my Research Consultants!

Listen to these talks at the weekly FEAST in Valle Verde Country Club (Beside UlTRA), Pasig, every Sunday at 9:00am. We’ve got people who go there each week from as far Laguna, Cavite, and Bulacan. Because they go where the blessing flows!

I remain your friend,

Bo Sanchez

PS. If you haven’t joined the www.kerygmafamily.com, you’re missing a lot of blessings too. I send my partners a mountain of spiritual nourishment. Log on there now!

Series Title:

How To Get Rid Of Bad Habits Now!

Jul 22 Talk 1: Discover What You Really Need

Head: To learn that addictions are symptoms of deeper love needs

Heart: To feel the hunger of love within—and feel loved

Hand: To seek help from God and others to meet our love needs

Summary:

Destructive bad habits or addictions are symptoms of deeper needs. Specifically, love needs. Meeting these deeper love needs will free us the urgency of our addictions. If not, we may be jumping from one addiction to another. How does one meet our deepest love needs? Receive God’s love, receiving love from the people around us, and radically loving ourselves. When we meet our love needs, we quiet the throbbing ache within that fuels our addictions. They no longer become compelling or urgent as they used to.

Jul 29 Talk 2: Focus On The Ambition And Not The Addiction

Head: Learn to work on a dream, not merely fight the bondage

Heart: Feel hope that you can get out of this addiction

Hand: Create a dream and take the first step towards it

Summary:

Tell yourself 10x, “I will not think of a pink elephant.” (Try it.) Guess what you’re thinking of right now? A pink elephant. What you focus on grows. So if you focus on your addiction, you make it grow. Telling yourself “I will not smoke” 100x will make you think of smoking 100x. Instead, you need to focus on a dream of your healthy body jogging on the hills under the blue sky. We need to create a dream, an ambition, and focus. Doing so, we build self-esteem, self-respect, and fill our love needs.

Aug 5 Talk 3: Love The Sinner And The Saint Within

Head: Learn to forgive oneself and see beauty within

Heart: Feel happy after being released from self-anger

Hand: Forgive oneself

Summary:

Many addictions come from self-hatred. (Again, a love need that isn’t met.) To heal our addiction, we need to heal our self-hatred. We need to accept our past, embrace our weaknesses, and forgive our sins. Indeed, we need to forgive ourselves the way God forgives us—total and absolute! Aside from that, we also need to celebrate our strengths and bless the world.

Aug 12 Very Special Talk

Aug 19 Talk 4: Create A New Outer World

Head: Learn what needs to be removed, what needs to be added in our life

Heart: Feel the power one has to design our outer world

Hand: Design one’s outer world

Summary:

We’ve heard this statement before: “Tell me who your friends are and I’ll tell you who you are.” We are influenced by our environment. But instead of resigning ourselves to the external powers around us, we must also acknowledge this powerful truth--That we can influence our environment. (Yes, we have the power to choose our friends.) We need to create a new world that will make us reach our dream and free us from our bondages. That means designing the best relationships, schedules, jobs, recreation, TV shows, music, and everything else in our outer world.

Aug 26 Talk 5: Redefine Yourself

Head: Learn what “labels” need to be removed, what need to be added

Heart: Feel the power that one can create new labels for oneself

Hand: Create new labels

Summary:

We become the labels we give ourselves. The problem with many labels is they are unconscious. For example, some addicts unconsciously define themselves as weak, failures, monsters, evil, monsters--and so they become the these labels they give themselves. We need to learn to give ourselves new labels based on our true identity in God. If we know the truth, it will set us free.

Sep 2 Talk 6: Correct Your Faith

Head: Learn that distorted theology can worsens one’s addictions

Heart: Feel the joy of being released from a wrong theology

Hand: Create a more accurate theology

Summary:

Distorted theology has helped lock many people in their addictions. What is distorted theology? A wrathful, vengeful God who is preoccupied with your sinfulness. (Our love need for God’s love isn’t met.) Or a religion that defines holiness as saying NO to all our needs, even legitimate, valid ones. (Our love need for self-love isn’t met.) Or a pessimistic view towards human beings as sinful, instead of focusing on our inner beauty. (Our labels tend to be pessimistic as well.) We need to identify these distorted beliefs and overhaul them.

Sep 9 Talk 7: Take Charge!

Head: Learn to stop blaming and take responsibility

Heart: Feel the power of taking responsibility

Hand: Select one area where he needs to stop blame

Summary:

When we blame, we lose our power to change our lives. Addicts are experts in blame. Unless we learn to take responsibility, our walk to freedom will be slow. What does it mean to take responsibility? By taking baby steps. How does one eat an elephant? One bite at a time. By growing in small victories, we gain strength to win bigger ones.

Sep 16 Talk 8: Fire All Engines (Conclusion)

Head: Learn all the elements that can help free us from addiction

Heart: Feel hope and joy that one can indeed be free

Hand: Choose to work on one of these elements

Summary:

There is no one specific way to overcome an addiction. In fact, surveys suggest that there may be 70% who overcome their bondages on their own, without any help from an Alcoholics Anonymous group or therapy or counselling. (Some of those 70% received their freedom when they joined a prayer meeting.) But it’s also true that lasting change can only happen when we actually work on making ourselves grow. To summarize the entire teaching series, we shall again revisit the various elements necessary for making healing lasting and permanent.

Instructions: Write your inputs below to explain or expound any of the talks above. As much as possible, make it below 8 sentences. Any personal testimonies, stories, jokes, quotations, analogies, skits, popular song lyrics or popular movie scenes…

 

The Dad Who Brought Me Out For Pizza

My Father Did Many Things, But I Will Always Remember Him As…

The Dad Who Brought Me Out For Pizza

By Bo Sanchez

My Dad is gone.

My hero. My mentor. Gone.

An hour before he died, I gently brushed my hand on his grey hair. I looked at his tired face, his wrinkled hands, the tubes attached to his arm—and something in me told me his time was up. He wanted to go home. I prayed a blessing on him. An hour later, he quietly died in his sleep.

Friends, this should have happened eleven years ago…

God Gave Him A Long Extension

Eleven years ago, my father was fixing a light bulb in our garage. He stood on a bench, reached for it, and lost his balance. He came crashing down, the back of his head hitting the concrete floor. We rushed him to the hospital. Soon, he lost control of his limbs. I can still vividly recall that scene when my father, a strong man, was coming down the steps with my two sisters almost carrying him down. He couldn’t move his legs anymore. Through brain scans, the doctors saw three blood clots in his brain. Soon, they said, he would die because of them. They performed two brain surgeries on him. He stayed in the ICU for three months. We almost lost him to severe pneumonia.

But miracle of miracles, he slowly recovered from the grip of death…

God granted him a second life.

To Teach Us To Love More

That was eleven years ago—And how I enjoyed those eleven years!

Yes, he could no longer work or serve the church or community. He could no longer talk clearly. Just garbled words. His eyesight became very bad. And the emotional center in his brain was also damaged, so he became erratic and sometimes acted like a child. He was a mere shadow of who he was.

But for those eleven years, it was so easy to make him smile. All I had to do was bring him out to a cheap Japanese restaurant. He loved his sashimi in wasabe sauce. During this period in his life, eating out with his family was the only thing that made him happy.

For eleven years, I embraced him everytime we met—something I didn’t do before his accident. For eleven years, I always said, “I love you, Dad”. For eleven years, I was in charge of cutting his fingernails and toenails—something I loved to do (and would miss doing.)

I believe one of the reasons why God extended his life for eleven years more was so that we could learn how to love more. That was his last assignment from above.

And then it was time to say good-bye…

His Last Breath

Two weeks, Mom noticed he was getting weaker. She said that he had a hard time climbing the stairs to the Light of Jesus Community Prayer Room right beside his home—a place he frequented twice a day, morning and evening. (For the past 20 years, the Blessed Sacrament has been exposed there, 24 hours a day, and Dad and Mom were up there communing with God each day.)

Seven days ago, because of this growing weakness, he fell on his way up his bedroom, his forehead crashing on the wooden steps. A doctor from the community came to suture his deep wound—12 stitches in all. He went through two brain scans but doctors only saw an old blood clot from eleven years ago. Still, as each day progressed, we observed he was getting weaker.

Four days ago, he could hardly get up from his bed.

When we brought him to the hospital the two days ago, he slept most of the time.

And this morning, an hour after midnight, he breathed his last.

Dad was 88 years old.

Would You Follow A 13-Year Old Boy?

Oh, there are many things that I could say of my father.

For example, for 16 years, Dad served in the Light of Jesus Community as one of the Elders, until his accident forced him to resign.

And whatever group Dad joined, whether it was the Homeowners Association or the Parish Council, he’d always be chosen as the Treasurer. Because he looked so honest. And he truly was. Because of this, he also took care of the finances of our Community. He labored that every single centavo be accounted for. (I believe the reason why we remain strong to this day was because our finances have been above reproach—a legacy he leaves behind.)

More than all this, I believe he was one of the most humble men I knew.

Who among you would follow your 13-year-old boy?

Ever since I started preaching at 13, he sat at the audience listening to me preach. And when we founded Light of Jesus Community when I was but 14, he agreed that I become its Presiding Elder and he only one of its Elders. Though Dad was still the leader in the home, he followed my leadership in community. Dad was Assistant Vice President of San Miguel Corporation and held an MBA degree from the University of the Philippines. Why would he follow his little boy? But he did so because he believed that God anointed me to lead.

All through theses years, he was content in his role as my main supporter.

I remember one day, he pulled me aside and said, “Bo, you have a gift of proclaiming God’s Word. I don’t have that gift. I wish I had it. If I had it, I would preach everyday. Bo, you have that gift. Use it. Use it everyday.”

When I was young, I had crazy ideas. One day, I told the Community to surrender their attachments to God. So in one prayer meeting, people surrendered their jewellery, clothes, and TV sets to God. Dad gave up our sala set, the most beautiful furniture we had, sold it and gave the proceeds to the Community. Yes, no matter how crazy my ideas were, he supported me.

He Brought Me Out To Pizza

But if you were to ask me what I most remember Dad for, I will say, “He brought me out for pizza.”

Dad spent enormous time with me.

Each day, when I was a young boy, we’d jog together. He wasn’t a great jogger mind you. All he did was jog around his car a few times. After the jog, he’d sit down and I’d sit on his lap—and we’d read the paper together. Not the front page, or the business section, or the sports page—but the comics page. He’d read it for me and explain why it was funny. Every single day. As a boy, I remember looking forward to spending time with him each night.

And every Saturday afternoon, he’d say, “Bo, let’s go out”. We’d go for a pizza. A hotdog-on-a-stick. A bag of peanuts. An ice cream cone. We’d also go to a toy store, play with the toys together without buying a single thing. I didn’t mind. My hands may have been empty but my heart was filled with Dad’s love.

He knew I loved pizza.

So when Shakeys opened for the first time in the Philippines, he said he’d bring me there. The problem was that it opened in faraway Angeles, Pampangga. But to him, that was no problem at all. He drove me there just so that I could eat pizza.

It’s true. At the end of one’s life, you’re not remembered by your great achievements. The house you built. The job you had. The money you earned.

At the end of your life, you’ll be remembered by how you loved in small ways. Whether you brought your son for pizza or not.

My father did.

I remain your friend,

Bo Sanchez

PS. Here’s a letter I wrote to Dad.

Dad, I’ll miss you.

I’ll miss cutting your fingernails and toenails.

I’ll miss our hugs together.

Dad, thank you for loving me in the way only you could have done.

You supported me in my work as a Preacher and Leader. No matter how crazy my ideas were, you were there behind me. Thank you for believing in me so much.

Dad, thank you for spending time with me when I was a little boy.

Thank you for letting me sit on your lap, reading the Comics page for me each night. Thank you for bringing me to the toy store. Thank you for the hotdog. The ice cream cone. The pizza.

Hey, your back. The man before the accident. This time, perfected.

You can see beautifully again. All the colors, the beauty, the brightness.

You can talk clearly again—no longer the jumbled words you spoke for 11 years.

You can work again. (Do they need your accounting skills there?)

You can jog again.

Welcome back Dad.

I love you!

PS2. Dad was the one who inspired me to start preaching through media. (He was the one who told me to start Kerygma magazine.) If you want to know more about the ministry that Dad and I started, you can log onto www.kerygmafamily.com and be a member of the KerygmaFamily. When you join, you’ll be spiritually nourished each day!

We Don’t Send Our Kids To School

It’s One Of The Best Decisions We’ve Ever Made

We know. We’re nuts.

We don’t send our kids to school.

Let me tell you why.

When our baby was growing up, we watched how everyone did the schooling thing—and we didn’t like it.

This is what we saw:

Early morning, parents send off the kids to school while they both go to work. It’s rush, rush, rush. At 7am, everyone is out of the house, plowing through morning traffic.

At around 7 in the evening (if there’s no overtime), these exhausted parents arrive home like dried prunes. They have dinner with the kids but have no energy to talk to each other—so they put on the TV and watch telenovelas together. After dinner, Mommy helps Junior with homework.

Let’s say today, the kid’s got homework in Math, English, and Filipino. In Filipino, Junior’s project is to put the photos of 12 National Filipino Heroes on a cartolina. Because it’s already 10pm, Junior is now asleep. So Mommy is cutting photos of the heroes from old magazines, and Daddy is pasting them on the cartolina. The day ends at midnight. Another long day awaits…

We Wanted Another Kind Of Family Life

We asked ourselves. Is this the lifestyle we really want? Or do we want something else for our kids and our family?

We decided to do something radical: We won’t send our kids to school. Instead, we’ll teach them ourselves.

Result? We’ve been doing it for four years now and my son Bene is in 3rd Grade.

That means my wife and I are his teachers, our home is his classroom, our kitchen is his canteen, and our street is his school yard.

Poor kid, right? People tell me he’s missing a lot because we homeschool him.

Hey, I agree.

What My Son Is Missing

Let me give you a partial list of what he’s missing.

· He doesn’t have to wake up at 6:00am everyday to catch the school bus. He doesn’t have to experience being dressed-up and “toothbrushed” by his mother while asleep so he won’t be late for school. He doesn’t have to wolf down his breakfast while rushing out.

· He doesn’t have to ride a school bus. (Ow, shucks.) He doesn’t have to wade through traffic twice a day.

· He doesn’t have to fight with forty kids for the attention of a teacher.

· He doesn’t have to waste a lot of time waiting in school. (Which I feel consumes 30% of school time each day.) He doesn’t have to wait for everyone to line-up for the National Anthem. He doesn’t have to wait for everyone to quiet down before the teacher starts teaching. He doesn’t have to wait for the teacher to explain the lesson a second for those who weren’t listening…

· He doesn’t have to eat sugary snacks in the school canteen.

· He doesn’t get bullied. No jeers. No barbs. No meanness.

· He doesn’t have peer pressure to buy the latest rubber shoe, the newest cell phone, the coolest shirt. He doesn’t have to compare his daily allowance with his classmates.

· He doesn’t have homework when he arrives from school. Nada. None. Zilcho. Zero. He doesn’t have school projects that mommies end up doing anyway.

Should I go on?

That’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Gosh, my son is missing a lot of things.

Instead, Here’s What My Son Has…

So instead of these things, what does my son have to endure in homeschool? Let me see…

· He wakes up at 8:00am. If the entire family attended a prayer meeting the previous night, he wakes up at 9:00am. No problem.

· He has time to say his morning prayers in bed. He joins his mom reading the Bible together. He then takes a relaxing breakfast with his little brother Francis, reads his books, plays the guitar, and the two of them clown around the house.

· He starts class at 9:00am. Each morning, he sings the Philippine National Anthem, says the Panatang Makabayan, and prays his morning school prayer on his own.

· In every subject, he has the undivided attention of his devoted teacher. He can ask any question he wants, anytime he wants, and his teacher will answer him. When he doesn’t know the answer, he says, “Let’s research for the answer now.” And they log onto the internet, read a few books, and viola—the answer is found… together.

· He and his mother love talking about their faith. They also like singing together.

· He can tell his teacher, “Mommy, I want to know more about stars. Can we read about that tomorrow?” And his mother will say, “Let’s make that our science class for today!” And because it’s his interest, he needs no prodding to study. He wants to learn. He loves it.

· He can tell his teacher, “Mommy, I don’t understand this math problem. Can we slow it down a bit?” And his mother will say, “Sure thing. Let’s go through it one more time…” until he’s totally satisfied.

· Classes are only from Monday to Thursday. Because every Friday morning, he meets other homeschooled kids. They play together, do art work together, sing together, and just have enormous fun. (Yes, homeschooled kids have shown to be very sociable and confident, due to high self-esteem.)

· Every Tuesday afternoon, he attends a gymnastics class. Again, we don’t force him to do it. He loves tumbling, cartwheeling, and running around with the other kids.

· Each day, his class ends at 2pm or 3pm. But that’s because class was so exciting, both mother and son didn’t want to stop.

· After his class, my son goes out and rides the bike with his cousin or they play with the computer together. In the evening, since there’s no homework, he reads whatever books he likes to read. My suspicion? Because he’s interested in reading the books he chooses, he probably learns more in his free time than in his formal class time!

· When I’m free, I teach him how to compose songs and improve his guitar playing (That’s his Music Class), how to write short stories (That’s his English elective), and how to expand his bangus or milkfish business (That’s Entrepreneurship 101). Yes, he sells fish to our friends, and he divides his profits to tithes, alms, savings, and toy money! (Personal Finance 101). When my son hit 7 years old, I taught him how to read the Business section of the Newspaper. He loves asking about the stock market. He knows that we have to buy “low” and sell “high”.

· In all these, the greatest benefit is really having an incredible relationship with our kids.

We love homeschooling. Aside from all these benefits, we save a lot of money. We also don’t spend on daily allowance, school bus, etc. So we’re saving a bundle.

I know homeschooling is not for everyone. But it should at least be looked at.

I’ve trained myself that we shouldn’t live like everyone else if we believe that there’s a better way out there.

Explore. Search. Look at options.

You’ll be surprised at what you’ll discover.

I remain your friend,

Bo Sanchez
