- S5E10: How To Be a Winsome Witness To The LGBT+ Community
Pieter Valk is a writer, speaker and counselor and founder and executive director of Equip, which trains churches and leaders to make church a place where LGBT+ people can thrive while living out a traditional sexual ethic.
We talk about
- What is the most common roadblock to being a winsome witness you’ve seen & how can we overcome that?
- How do you share Jesus with those who identify as "not straight"?
- Is there a point where you should just stop bringing it up after you’ve had that conversation a certain number of times?Resources:

44 min - BONUS: This One Prayer Changed My Entire Pregnancy & Birth ExperienceThe prayer that changed my entire pregnancy & birth experience: “God, inform my intuition.” Hannah Penny has been on several episodes with me before, but today, she is hearing my birth story for the very first time (along with all of you listeners!) My birth plan changed A LOT in the last 6 weeks of my pregnancy and while I did walk through some grief about those expectations, I could not be more grateful and happy about Avanlé’s birth. The Lord had such perfect timing. He showed me that I can truly trust Him with my body because He made it & He created this little life! I hope this story can help any expecting moms eliminate any fear surrounding birth & encourage you to see it through God’s eyes and original intent. Don’t let fear steal the joy of this experience. xoxo, Jenny Marcum43 min

32 min - MINISODE: What Is Your Role In Stopping Human Trafficking?Danielle Hanlon works with She Is Safe, an anti-trafficking organization that seeks to prevent, rescue and restore women and girls who are stuck in human trafficking across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.The question is not IF you are called to do something. It is, "WHAT are you called to do?" We bring our small loaves and fish and God multiplies what we offer him.Throughout history, God often judged entire nations based off how they treated the poor, the vulnerable, and the oppressed. And we will be judged by what we did or did NOT do to the least of these.HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED:1. VOLUNTEER2. PRAY3.

45 min - S5E5: Is Self-Love Biblical? Positive Affirmations vs. True Confidence
MacKenzie Ryder has been set free from self-hatred. As she was discipled throughout high school, she knew in her head that God loved her, but the thoughts she would daily think about herself did not match up with His Truth and His feelings for her. In the process of getting to know God on a deeper level, she realized how badly her thoughts needed to change.
We talk about:
- What is the difference between self-hatred and self-discipline?
- Is self-love Biblical?
- What is the difference between positive affirmations and believing the Truth about yourself? Is there a difference at all?
- How can you overcome self-hatred when it's all you've ever known?

38 min - S5E4: Are My Desires Good, Godly or Selfish? How To Discern Which Ones To Pursue
Is one of your 2024 goals to SLOW DOWN? Get 10% off Maryellen’s new book, Slowliloquies, with the code HEADTOHEART10 here:
https://www.maryellenhacko.com.au/slowliloquies
How do you know if a goal/dream is from God or from yourself? If it is "from yourself", does that mean it's inherently bad?
Maryellen Hacko joined me for a 2nd time on the podcast - she is a BRAVE soul because we tackled such a complicated & layered topic! So many of us overthink our dreams to death because we're so afraid it's not "from God". We may chalk it up to being a selfish desire and give up. We talked about how to discern your desires, where they come from, and which ones to go after.
