Join us as we sit down with Nancy Dipprey for a heartfelt conversation about one of the most freeing truths of the Christian life — the freedom of self-forgetfulness.
Nancy shares with honesty and grace how God has met her in seasons of striving — the times when her worth felt tied to performance, success, or the approval of others. Through those struggles, she’s discovered a deeper rest and joy that come from releasing control and remembering that life is not ultimately about us, but about Him.
What it really means to live in the freedom God intends for His children.
How to let go of striving and find peace in God’s sufficiency.
Practical tools and spiritual rhythms Nancy uses to stay grounded in truth.
The beauty of allowing God to work in us and through us — not by our effort, but by His grace.
This episode is an encouragement for anyone who feels weary from trying to measure up — a reminder that true freedom begins when we take our eyes off ourselves and fix them on Christ.
Listen in and be refreshed by the simple, freeing truth: You don’t have to strive for what God has already given you.
