Kept

Your emotions are real—but they were never meant to have the final word.

What do you do when you know God's truth, but your feelings tell you something completely different?

Fear says something bad is going to happen. Disappointment tells you God has forgotten you. Anger tells you to react. Anxiety tells you to take control. And sadness can make it difficult to see beyond what you're experiencing right now.

In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra Lebbie explores what it means to have renewed feelings and how Christians can process their emotions without allowing those emotions to become their leaders.

Following Jesus doesn't require you to ignore, suppress, or pretend away difficult emotions. God created us with the capacity to feel deeply. But there is a difference between feeling an emotion and allowing that emotion to determine what you believe, how you respond, and what you believe about God.

Together, we'll look at how to bring our emotions honestly before God, examine the beliefs underneath them, anchor ourselves in biblical truth, and allow the Holy Spirit to shape our response.

In this episode, we talk about:

God isn't asking you to stop feeling.

He's inviting you to bring what you feel under the leadership of His truth.

If you've been struggling with overwhelming emotions, anxiety, fear, anger, disappointment, emotional exhaustion, or trusting God during a difficult season, this episode is for you.

How do you experience the peace of God when your life has suddenly been changed by loss?

In this deeply personal episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra Lebbie sits down with Brittany Price Booker for an honest conversation about navigating sudden, tragic loss and discovering that the peace Jesus offers is not dependent on our circumstances.

Beginning with John 14:27, we explore Jesus' words: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives." What does that kind of peace actually look like when you're grieving, hurting, and trying to trust God in a reality you never wanted?

Brittany shares from her own journey as we unpack the difference between worldly peace and the peace of God. The world often defines peace as the absence of trouble, but Jesus offers us something far greater: His very presence in the middle of it.

Because ultimately, peace isn't just something Jesus gives us—peace is a Person, and His name is Jesus.

In this conversation, we discuss:

If you're walking through grief, loss, heartbreak, uncertainty, or a season that has completely changed the life you thought you would have, this conversation is for you.

You don't have to create peace for yourself. You are invited to draw near to the One who is your peace.

What if surrender isn't losing control—but finally trusting the One who was always meant to have it? When life becomes uncertain, our natural response is often to take matters into our own hands. We plan, overthink, control, protect ourselves, and try to create the outcomes we desperately want.

But the Christian life was never meant to be lived through self-reliance.

In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra Lebbie talks about what it means to surrender your will to God, especially when His way is different from yours. Because you have been made alive with Christ, you are no longer limited to navigating life through your own wisdom, strength, and understanding.

You have the freedom to trust God's leadership, submit your desires to Him, and obey—even when you don't know where your obedience will lead. Surrender isn't passive. And it doesn't mean you stop having desires, making decisions, or taking action. It means your desires and decisions are increasingly submitted to the authority and wisdom of God.

Can God still be good when life doesn't feel good?

In this conversation with worship leader Sarah Benibo, we explore one of the hardest questions Christians face during seasons of suffering: What does it really mean to trust God's goodness when His plans don't match our expectations?

We discuss why God—not our circumstances—gets to define what is truly good, and how learning to surrender our expectations opens the door to deeper peace and greater intimacy with Him.

We also talk about the beautiful paradoxes of the Christian life: grieving while rejoicing, waiting while hoping, and experiencing God's kingdom now while longing for the fullness that is still to come. Rather than trying to resolve the tension, we discover how God uses it to mature our faith and anchor our hope.

If you're wrestling with disappointment, unanswered prayers, or wondering how God's goodness fits into your story, this conversation will encourage you to trust Him even when you don't yet understand His ways.

Your thoughts may be real, but that doesn’t mean they’re true.

What happens when fear, overthinking, negative thoughts, and the weight of hardship begin to consume your mind? As believers, we are not powerless against the thoughts that compete with the truth of God.

In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra Lebbie talks about what it practically looks like to renew your mind with God’s Word and develop thought patterns that reflect your new life in Christ.

Romans 12:2 tells us that we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. Because you have been made alive with Christ, you no longer have to allow fear, lies, painful experiences, or your circumstances to determine what you believe. Through the Holy Spirit and the truth of Scripture, you can learn to recognize unhealthy thought patterns, reject lies, and intentionally fix your mind on what is true.

In this episode, we talk about:

-What it really means to renew your mind

-How hardship can distort your perspective -Recognizing negative and unhealthy thought patterns

-Why every thought doesn't deserve your agreement

-Identifying lies and replacing them with biblical truth

-What it means to take your thoughts captive

-Using Scripture to reshape the way you think

-Learning to fix your mind on God during difficult seasons

-Why renewing your mind requires daily dependence on God You may not be able to control every thought that enters your mind, but you don't have to give every thought permission to stay.

Because of Christ, your mind is no longer a place where you are powerless. You can bring your thoughts under the authority of God's truth and allow Him to transform the way you think.

If you're struggling with overthinking, fear, negative thoughts, anxiety, discouragement, or keeping your mind focused on God during hardship, this episode is for you. 📖

Is avoiding conflict actually biblical?

In this conversation, Pricelis Dominguez challenges one of the most common misconceptions among Christians: keeping the peace isn't always the same as making peace.

Together, we explore what it means to communicate with both truth and grace, why every person is made in the image of God, and how our words should reflect the character of Christ—even in disagreement.

Whether you're navigating conflict in your family, church, friendships, or online, this episode will encourage you to pursue biblical peacemaking instead of simply avoiding difficult conversations.

What if the gospel changed more than where you’ll spend eternity? What if it changed how you have the ability to live right now?

In this episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra Lebbie breaks down the gospel through Colossians 2:13–15 and explores what it really means to be made alive with Christ. Jesus didn’t simply forgive your sins—His death and resurrection changed your position, gave you new life, and secured your victory in Christ.

Yet many believers know they’ve been forgiven while still living as though they are defeated.

So what actually happened when you were saved? And how should the finished work of Jesus change the way you navigate your mind, emotions, identity, hardship, and everyday Christian life?

In this episode, we’re going back to the foundation: the gospel.

In this conversation, we’ll talk about:

The gospel isn’t only good news for your eternity. It is the foundation for how you live today.

If you’ve been struggling with fear, shame, defeat, spiritual exhaustion, or simply wondering what it practically means to walk in freedom as a Christian, this episode is for you.

How does God respond when we don't get it right? And who helps us grow into spiritually mature women?

In this conversation, Brenda Palmer shares how God's pursuit of us is rooted in His patience and love—not our perfection. We talk about the freedom of knowing that God continues to draw us close, even when we stumble, and why spiritual growth was never meant to happen in isolation.

We also explore the often-overlooked gift of older, godly women. In a culture that celebrates independence, Scripture points us toward relationships where wisdom is passed from one generation to the next. If you've ever longed for guidance, encouragement, or deeper spiritual maturity, this conversation will remind you that God often shapes us through faithful women who have walked with Him before us.

This episode is an invitation to receive God's patient love, pursue biblical community, and embrace the wisdom He provides through spiritual mothers.

Welcome to Season 3 of Kept Podcast.

If you're walking through hardship, it's easy to believe your circumstances have the final word. But Colossians 2:13–15 tells a completely different story.

Because of Christ's death and resurrection, your greatest enemies—sin, shame, condemnation, and spiritual defeat—have already been conquered. The question is: What changes when you actually live from that victory?

In this episode, we're laying the foundation for the entire season as we discover what it truly means to be Made Alive in Christ and how His finished work transforms the way we think, trust, suffer, obey, and endure.

If you've ever wondered why you still struggle even though Jesus has already won, this conversation is for you.

In this finale episode of Kept Podcast, Tierra shares a powerful encouragement for anyone walking through suffering, weakness, or hardship: Jesus understands—and He draws near.

In Hebrews 4:15–16, we are reminded that Jesus is not distant from our pain. He is our faithful High Priest, One who has experienced the weight of human weakness and temptation, yet without sin. Because of this, we can come to Him with confidence, knowing that we will receive mercy and grace in our time of need.

In this episode, Tierra reminds us that we do not have to hide our struggles or clean ourselves up before coming to God. Instead, we are invited to draw near—just as we are.

In this episode we explore:

• What it means that Jesus is our faithful High Priest

Jesus is not detached from your pain—He is present in it. And because of who He is, you can come boldly to Him, trusting that He will meet you with compassion, help, and sustaining grace.

As we close out this season of Kept Podcast, may you be reminded that you are not alone, you are deeply understood, and you are fully invited into the presence of God.
