Episode 250: Tame Your Thoughts | Max Lucado
Hole In My Heart Podcast
Friday, November 21, 2025 - 50 minutes
People have 70,000 thoughts per day and about 80% of them are negative.
What is that doing to our emotional health? What is that doing to our actions? How is that affecting our very DNA?
Global bestselling author and pastor, Max Lucado, is here to help us understand not only the science behind our thoughts but the heart beneath them.
How can we “take every thought captive?”
How does something like anxiety and depression factor in?
Is this just plastering a smile on a bad day or a rough life?
Let’s talk about it all.

Free those who are wrongly imprisoned; lighten the burden of those who work for you. Let the oppressed go free, and remove the chains that bind people. Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help.
