"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

If you're stuck in a pattern you can't seem to break (unhealthy relationships, habits, or thought), there may be a deeper cause of pain at the root. Once we realize we don't want to stay in that cycle (when we're desperate for a different way of living), we can begin to take steps to truly change.

In this episode, as an intro to this series on addressing the roots of our pain, Heather Lobe Johnson shares an original spoken word piece. "ROOTS" is about this very place of surrender and readiness, as we turn to the Lord and others to help us begin the work of uprooting lies, shame, and old wounds still affecting us in our daily lives and choices.
