  • Anchor Points | Ep. 145 | Your Boss Is Younger Than You - Now What?
    Jan 7 2026

    Age is just a number, right? Until your new boss is younger than you.

    Suddenly it feels like your little sister is telling you what to do. The comparisons start. The resentment creeps in. How did they get that position? What do they have that I don't?

    When Devin started a retail training program in his mid-20s, he was excited and eager to learn. Everything was great until he met his supervisor. She was two years younger. And just like that, his pride hijacked everything.

    The questions spiraled: How did she get associate level when I'm still assistant? Why am I reporting to someone younger? What is she doing that I'm not?

    None of those thoughts helped. But one shift in perspective changed everything.

    In this Anchor Point, Devin shares:

    • Why age triggers our pride and comparison more than we admit
    • What God actually cares about when it comes to titles and positions
    • How remembering who you ultimately serve transforms workplace dynamics
    • The freedom that comes when you let go of the comparison game

    Scripture (NIV): Colossians 3:23-24 – "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 146 | Why Running From Discomfort Is Killing Your Faith
    Jan 6 2026

    What do you do when life gets uncomfortable? Run? Avoid it? Pretend it's not happening?

    Most of us spend our lives dodging discomfort. We change seats. We ghost the hard conversation. We numb out with whatever's available.

    But what if God is actually meeting you in that exact uncomfortable moment you're trying to escape?

    On a recent flight, Devin sat next to a woman who was completely drunk. It was barely noon. Her first instinct? Get away. But God had other plans. That uncomfortable seat assignment turned into a God-orchestrated appointment with a woman on her way to rehab, terrified and surrendering her entire life.

    In this Anchor Point, Devin shares:

    • Why we instinctively run from discomfort and what we miss when we do
    • How God uses uncomfortable moments to meet us exactly where we are
    • What the cross teaches us about walking through discomfort instead of around it
    • A practical faith exercise you can try today

    Scripture (NIV): 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 – "But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

    TODAY'S FAITH EXERCISE: Identify one uncomfortable situation you've been avoiding. Instead of running, walk into it while holding the Lord's hand. Notice where God meets you there.

    💬 Let's talk more: What is that one uncomfortable situation you've been running from? How would it change if you knew God was already there waiting for you? Join the conversation in the InSight Out Community on Facebook 👉 InSight Out FB Group

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 145 | Is Your Faith Just a Chore Chart? This Will Change How You See God
    Jan 5 2026

    Ever feel like your faith has turned into a to-do list? Pray, check. Read your Bible, check. Go to church, check. Sound familiar?

    Many of us grew up with chore charts: finish your tasks, get a reward. Maybe it was an ice cream date or extra screen time. But what happens when we bring that same mentality into our relationship with God?

    We start focusing more on completing the checklist than actually being with Him. We worry about what we didn't do instead of enjoying who He is. And suddenly, faith feels like work instead of relationship.

    In this Anchor Point, Devin shares:

    • Why your faith walk isn't meant to be a performance review
    • The difference between doing for God and being with God
    • How Jesus meets you whether your "spiritual checklist" is complete or not

    Scripture (NIV): John 15:4-5 – "Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 144 | When Your “Better Life” Becomes Your Kingdom
    Dec 31 2025

    Have you ever tried to rebuild your life into something better, only to realize you might be placing yourself at the center instead of God?

    It’s something that often creeps in quietly, especially around the New Year, when we're focused on goals, growth, and fresh starts.

    We talk a lot here about living better, feeling more positive, and uplifting our day and those are good things, but sometimes even good goals can start to shift into something self‑centered without us noticing.

    In this episode we explore:

    1. Why striving for a “better life” can secretly make you the center of your world
    2. How building your own little kingdom can distract you from God’s greater purpose
    3. What it really looks like to align your goals with His kingdom instead of just your comfort

    Sometimes God doesn’t call us to abandon positivity or good habits, He calls us to reframe their purpose.

    Scripture (NIV):

    “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” — Matthew 6:33

    💬 Want to talk about it more?

    What does “your kingdom” look like?

    Is your daily pursuit building a life that centers on you or on Him?

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 143 | The One Resolution You’ll Never Regret Making
    Dec 30 2025

    Feel behind on your resolutions or just not feeling them this year?

    You’re not alone. And maybe that’s actually a good thing.

    In this Anchor Point, Devin Almonte explores how chasing resolutions can sometimes miss the mark… and how one simple shift can change everything.

    What if we resolved to be more like Christ, not just on January 1st, but every single day?

    This kind of resolution doesn’t come with pressure, a deadline, or the need for perfection. It’s about:

    • Choosing transformation over willpower
    • Honoring your body instead of punishing it
    • Recognizing and resisting gossip (even the “innocent” kind)
    • Letting go of shame around where you are and focusing on who you’re becoming in Christ


    This episode invites us to make a different kind of resolution, one that draws us closer to God and less into ourselves.

    Scripture (NIV):

    Romans 12:2 – “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”

    Have you ever thought about gossip as something to surrender to God?

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 142 | Overwhelmed by the World? This Truth Changes Everything
    Dec 29 2025

    Feeling the weight of the world lately?

    Between inflation, rising violence, and broken systems, it's easy to feel like everything is falling apart and like our footing is slipping.

    But God is not surprised by any of this. In fact, He told us it would come.

    And He also told us something even more powerful: Take heart. I have overcome the world.

    In this New Year's Anchor Point, Devin shares:

    1. Why we don’t need to sugarcoat the struggles we’re facing
    2. How Jesus gives us real peace, not empty positivity
    3. A powerful posture for entering 2026 with grounded faith

    Scripture (NIV):

    John 16:33 – “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 141 | The Best Gift You Can Give This Christmas (And It’s Already Paid For)
    Dec 24 2025

    Who’s on your heart this Christmas?

    Is there someone in your life you desperately want to know Jesus, but they seem completely uninterested or even hostile to faith?

    You’re not alone. In today’s Anchor Point, Devin Almonte shares her own story of once mocking Christians… before becoming one. And she reminds us that no one is too far gone for the love of Christ.

    We don’t have to argue someone into belief. Instead, we can live it out right in front of them.

    In today’s Anchor Point, Devin explores:

    1. What helped her go from indifference to daily praise
    2. How we can live like Jesus, especially for those watching
    3. Why vision (not pressure) is the key to softening hearts
    4. A simple yet powerful way to reflect Christ this Christmas

    Scripture (NIV):

    Luke 1:37 – “For no word from God will ever fail.”

    💬 Want to talk about it more?

    Who’s someone in your life that you’re praying comes to know Christ?

    How can your daily life become part of their story of faith?

    Or maybe… it’s you. Maybe you’re the one who’s been unsure about faith and this is your invitation to take a second look.

  • Anchor Points | Ep. 140 | What a Broken Christmas Light Taught Me About Gratitude
    Dec 23 2025

    Ever feel like you’re unraveling in December? Lights not working, time slipping, everyone around you grumpy… including you?

    In today’s Anchor Point, Devin Almonte shares a simple moment in a grocery store that sparked a heart shift, reminding us how God gives us the eyes to see differently.

    In this episode, Devin explores:

    1. How busyness can rob our joy (even during the season of joy)
    2. Why we often notice others’ attitudes before our own
    3. How gratitude rewires our experience—anywhere, even in aisle 7
    4. A small moment of kindness that reminded her: God is in the details

    Scripture (NIV):

    Psalm 100:4 – “Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.”
