Did you know that part of your inheritance as a child of God means you are to exercise the authority of Jesus in your life and sphere of influence? The Bible tells us that we are seated in heaven with Christ-He is the head and we are the body. Satan is a defeated enemy and we are to enforce this victory in our lives. We have authority as we pray and partner with Jesus to bring His will to earth. In this episode, Jackie and Heather are continuing on with their Identity Series as they discuss the Authority of Christ in us. We hope that as you listen to this episode, you are encouraged to walk out in the authority that God has given you! 

We mention two books in this podcast that we wanted to list here in case you would like to read them.

1. The Daily Decree by Brenda Kunneman
2. The Believer’s Authority by Kenneth Hagin

Also, here are some scriptures to get you started on your journey to understanding your authority.

Ephesians 2:6, Ephesians 1:3, Ephesians 1:13, Ephesians 6:10, Ephesians 1:16-20, 1 Corinthians 12:12-14, Luke 10:19, Hosea 4:6, Ephesians 3:14-19, Isaiah 54:17, 1 John 4:4, James 4:7, Matthew 18:18, Revelation 1:18

Welcome to Episode 3 of our Identity Series. We couldn’t have an identity series without taking the time to address our feminine attributes. God tells us that we are made in His image-both male and female. He called it good. So, why then is there so much competition between the sexes? And even amongst our fellow women? If God created both and said it wasn’t good for us to be alone-then we need to find the root of all the disunity.  The enemy has been distorting the way we see ourselves since the Garden of Eden.  Join us today as we have a conversation around who God says we are as women as opposed to what the world is saying to us. We will be tackling the ideas of Biblical Femininity and Feminism as well as explore some of the ideologies that feminist hold, such as, “Women can have it all and sexual liberation.” So, grab a cup of coffee and join Jackie and Heather as we explore these ideas! We are so glad you are here!

Welcome to Episode 2 of our Identity Series. This week, join Jackie and Heather as they have a conversation around the topic of “Who’s Words Have Been Defining You?”. They will explore questions such as, “Have we believed who God says we are?” or have we believed what the enemy has accused us of? They will also share their personal stories about the lies that they have had to overcome that were spoken over them over the years from other people and even from themselves. Seeing ourselves through the lens of scripture and re-wallpapering our minds with God’s truth is the only way to tear down the false identity that has taken root over us. Grab a cup of coffee and join us for this week’s conversation!

Welcome to Episode 1 of our series on Identity. At some point we are all faced with the question of who am I? Join Heather and Jackie this week as they begin to have conversations surrounding this question. This week they will be talking about what it means to be a new creation in Christ. The foundation of understanding our identity as a child of God starts the moment we become born again in Jesus. We will struggle with our identity until we figure out that it is only in Jesus that we find out who we are and what we are living for. We have to learn to walk out this new identity. This takes time. Our minds must be renewed by the scriptures as we begin to see ourselves as God does. Overtime we can begin to define ourselves by who we belong to instead of what we do.  Heather and Jakie will be exploring different topics over the next few weeks as we unpack this concept of identity. We can't wait for you to join in! 

In this week's episode, we will be interviewing author Pamela Steele! This is our final episode for our faith series and our interview with Pamela is nothing but encouraging. Her story of keeping her faith in the midst of leaving an abusive marriage with three small children and all the trials that came with that, is truly inspiring.  Though we know not everyone has gone through exactly what Pamela is sharing with us, we know that not one person escapes trials on this earth. We hope that through her personal stories and experiences with God providing for her every step of the way, you will be encouraged and able to keep your faith in God and keep your eyes on Jesus in even the hardest seasons of life! 

Has God said to you recently that it's "go time"? Are you scared out of your mind to start stepping into this thing that you know God is asking you to step into? If this is you, you are not alone! In this episode, Heather and Jackie are going to be talking about the many obstacles we face when we are about to take that first step when God says it's time. Whether it's fear, feeling inadequate or not knowing the first step to take, they will be talking about how to combat these things and just say yes to God! Throughout this episode, you will be encouraged and equipped to move one step closer to seeing the dreams and visions God has given you, become a reality.

What do you do when you have a dream God has given you but He hasn't opened the door for you to step into it? These seasons which we often call the "waiting seasons" are some of the hardest seasons of our lives! In this episode, Jackie and Heather will be talking about how they have personally lived through these seasons and how they had the faith to keep going and not let go of the dreams God has given them. They will also pull stories from the life of Joseph in the bible and learn about his waiting journey. We know you will be encouraged as you tune into this week's conversation! 

Has God ever asked you to lay something down that was very dear to your heart? When God does ask you to lay something down, how do you keep your faith in God? How do you not lose hope? In this epside, we will be having a conversation about what it looks like when God asks us to lay something down and how to work through those times. We will also tell our personal stories of times in our lives where we have had to lay something down and how we walked through that season.  We know this epidsode will be an encouragement to you!
