What Kind of Garden Are You Becoming?

TitleWhat Kind of Garden Have You Become? SummaryWhat kind of garden have you become?In this episode, Hatch Catch uses the garden as a picture of the life we are cultivating through our choices, habits, beliefs, standards, priorities, and repeated actions.You may know what you want to harvest—and what you intended to plant—but have you stopped to look at what your actions have actually cultivated?This conversation challenges men to recognize their own garden, take responsibility for what is growing, identify what needs to be put off, and consider whether the life they are building reflects the man they say they want to be.The question isn't only what kind of woman you're looking for. It's also: What kind of environment have you created? TakeawaysYour choices and decisions help shape the life you are living today.Intentions tell you what you wanted to cultivate; repeated actions reveal what you actually cultivated.Self-awareness requires being able to recognize your own garden without blaming everyone else.Pay attention to what is healthy, what is unhealthy, what is producing fruit, and what may be choking growth.What you repeatedly do matters more than what you intend to do.Ask whether your garden reflects the man you say you are becoming.Put off what no longer belongs and consciously cultivate what needs to be put on.Don't just ask what kind of woman you're looking for—ask what kind of environment you've created.Before asking whether the harvest is ready, take an honest look at the garden. Kingdom LensGenesis 3:9 — “Adam, where art thou?”The question isn't about Adam's physical location. It's a question of position, responsibility, and recognition: Where are you as a man right now?Hatch Catch also reflects on putting off the old man and putting on the new man from Ephesians 4:22-24 and Colossians 3:9-10.
