    Have you experienced deep hurt or betrayal? 

    It’s one thing to have a friend or coworker betray you, but what about your spouse?  The one who promised to be faithful, and to love and cherish you forever.

    Friend, if you have experienced betrayal of any kind, know that you are not alone! I have walked through these dark waters for many years, and want you to know that there is hope, healing and even reconciliation available.

  • Getting Attuned: Take Charge Of Your Emotional Health with Lisa Pinney | 83

    Want to learn how to tune into your emotional health and experience spiritual rest?

    Today I am sharing an interview I recently did on my good friend’s podcast, Attuned For Wholeness with Lisa Pinney, who is an anxiety and unresolved trauma coach. She and her team decided to develop an app to make emotional health, wholeness, and spiritual rest a regular part of daily living. It’s much more than mindfulness, meditation, or deep breathing for stress relief. It’s called the Get Attuned App.

     

    This new app combines self-awareness, with the ability to navigate through difficult, confusing, painful emotions and be able to connect with God in ways that bring us back to a place of calm and deep rest. 

    It will soon be released on Google Play and Apple store. 

     

    I am also an approved coach on the Get Attuned App.

  • Rising from the Ashes: Discovering God’s Resurrection Power in the Midst of Despair | 82

    Are you facing a situation that seems impossible or even dead right now? 

     

    Perhaps it’s your marriage, an estranged child, or a dream you’ve had. Maybe it seems like you’ll never find the right spouse, or conceive children, heal from a disease or terminal diagnosis, an addiction; or maybe it’s a business idea that’s never taken off and you are facing bankruptcy.

    Despair is a feeling of utter hopelessness and deep sorrow that arises when we face extremely difficult or painful circumstances that seem impossible to overcome. It is a state of emotional and spiritual emptiness where one feels overwhelmed, defeated, and without any sense of purpose or direction.

    Despair can be caused by a wide range of factors, such as the loss of a loved one, a traumatic experience, a chronic illness, or a major life transition. It can lead to depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues if left unaddressed. 

     

    In today’s episode, I discuss three key points to help you overcome despair and discover hope in difficult times, and share a personal story of my own. With God, nothing is impossible for those who believe.

    whatever you are facing that might seem impossible to recover from, there is hope and it’s found in Jesus Christ, who is the Resurrection and the Life! He has defeated sin and death and has the power to breathe new life into your situation. 

    Exactly seventeen years ago, were getting divorced but suddenly God resurrected our dead marriage.

    His sacrifice showed us how far love can go and its transformative impact in our everyday lives.

     

    We can also take comfort in knowing that no matter what we face or go through, Jesus will always be there to help us through it. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus has given us hope and a promise of living in eternity with Him if we choose to accept Him as our Lord and Savior. But it’s more that just a ticket to heaven. He gives us the power NOW to bring freedom, healing, and salvation into our lives. 

     

    I want to help you embrace the power of Jesus' death and resurrection by recognizing its significance in our lives, trusting in His promises, and living out of being united with Him. I want to help you experience true freedom from guilt and shame, inner peace, joy in the midst of trials, and a deeper connection with God.

  • What Does Wait on the Lord Mean with Chris Cree | 80

    Receive Strength, Courage and Faith in Difficult Times

    Waiting is never easy, especially today in our instant gratification society. 

    Whether it’s a relationship, financial or health issue, or just a transition.

     

    It can be difficult to wait on God, especially when we feel like we have no control over our circumstances. 

    We often want our problem fixed right now, instead of going through the process of waiting. 

      

    Typically, we often act in one of two ways while waiting on a promise from God. 

    1. We try to jump ahead of God and make things happen ourselves, not wanting to wait on His timing or plan.

    2. Do nothing and wait passively for God to do something.

     

    I recently was a guest on Kingdom Mindset’s Two For Tuesday, which is a live teaching hosted by my friend, Chris Cree of New CREEations Ministries. We had great discussion on what does waiting on the Lord mean and why is it important we have a different attitude about waiting. I want to share that with you today. It’s a practical teaching on Psalm 27:13-14 with some other supporting scriptures, to help you get a better understanding of what waiting means and practically looks like in our own life.
