  • God Redeems Your Mistakes: Lessons from King David + The Armor of God

    Welcome back to Take Back Your Authority with Heather Bulthuis. ❤️
    Today we start by putting on the Full Armor of God (Ephesians 6:10–20) and then we walk through the powerful life of King David—from overlooked shepherd boy to anointed king.

    David’s story shows us that:
    ✅ God has a plan for your life before you were even born
    ✅ Spiritual warfare is real—this isn’t a battle against people
    ✅ Even when we make mistakes, God can redeem, restore, and still use us

    We’ll talk about David’s calling, his victories, the consequences of poor choices, and the hope of repentance and redemption—because God doesn’t define you by your worst moment. He calls you forward.

    📖 Scriptures mentioned:
    Ephesians 6:10–20 • Romans 8:28 • (David’s story in 1 & 2 Samuel)

  • Exodus Explained (NIV): Moses, the 10 Plagues, Passover, Red Sea Miracle + Ten Commandments

    In today’s episode of Take Back Your Authority, we’re walking through Exodus and the powerful story of Moses leading Israel out of Egypt—including the 10 plagues, the meaning of Passover, and the miracle of the Red Sea crossing. We also finish with a simple, practical reminder: God gave us the Ten Commandments to keep life clear, grounded, and aligned with Him.

    We also talk about how God often leads us step-by-step (Psalm 119:105), why things can get harder before they get better, and how to respond to fear with faith—because the Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still (Exodus 14:14).

    🙏 In this episode:

    Moses’ calling and God’s “step-by-step” guidance

    Pharaoh’s hardened heart and the 10 plagues

    Passover and the power of the blood (a foreshadowing of Jesus)

    The Red Sea miracle and what it teaches us about fear vs. faith

    The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20) and keeping life simple

    Daily spiritual strength: Armor of God (Ephesians 6:10–17)

  • Take Back Your Authority Like Daniel | Stand Firm, Hear God, Stay Faithful

    Daniel’s story is not just about lions… it’s about identity, obedience, and unwavering faith in a world that tries to change who you are.

    In this episode of Take Back Your Authority, we walk through Daniel chapters 1, 2, and 6 and uncover the powerful pattern behind Daniel’s life:

    ✔ Chapter 1 – Resolve your identity
    ✔ Chapter 2 – Hear from God clearly
    ✔ Chapter 6 – Stay faithful under pressure

    Daniel was taken from his home, placed in a foreign culture, and pressured to conform—but he never lost who he was in God. Because of that, he walked in authority, wisdom, and favor everywhere he went.

    This message will help you:
    ✨ Stand firm when culture pressures you
    ✨ Hear God’s voice with clarity
    ✨ Stay faithful—even when it’s hard
    ✨ Take back your God-given authority

    Key takeaway:
    👉 Authority is not given by the world—it’s revealed through your identity, your choices, and your relationship with God.

    If you’ve ever felt like life has tried to rename you, this message is for you.

    📖 Scriptures: Daniel 1, 2, 6 | Ephesians 6:10–18

    🙏 If you gave your life to Jesus today, I would love to hear from you—leave a comment or message me.

  • Calm the Chaos of Cancer: Healing Mindset, Faith & Reclaiming Your Power with Edna Castillo

    n this powerful and hope-filled episode of Take Back Your Authority with Heather Bulthuis, I sit down with my friend Edna Castillo, Healing Mindset™ Coach, speaker, and best-selling author of Living Your Intuitive Genius™.

    Edna is the founder of RealityDreams® Life Coaching and creator of the CALM The Chaos of Cancer Method™, a holistic framework that helps individuals navigating cancer transform stress into strength by regulating the nervous system, managing fear and uncertainty, building resilience, and becoming powerful participants in their own healing journey alongside their medical care.

    In this conversation, Edna shares her own journey through breast cancer and how it led her to help others move from overwhelm into clarity, peace, and strength. We talk about why a healing mindset is not toxic positivity, how fear affects the body, how to calm the nervous system, how to trust your body again, and why reclaiming agency is so important during a cancer journey.

    We also talk about faith, mindset, medical care, gratitude, vision, intuition, and learning how to stay present even in uncertain seasons.

    If you or someone you love is walking through cancer, illness, fear, or uncertainty, this episode will remind you that you are not powerless. You can breathe, pause, pray, ask questions, support your body, renew your mind, and take back your authority one step at a time.

  • Stop Sabotaging Your Calling: “God-fidence,” Worth & Purpose w/ Katherine Norland

    Do you know you were made for more… but fear keeps you playing small?

    In this episode of Take Back Your Authority, Heather Bulthuis sits down with Katherine Norland (actress + faith-based coach) to talk about worth, identity in Christ, and the “God-fidence” you need to stop sabotaging your calling and finally live your purpose.

    In this conversation, we cover:
    • The difference between confidence, competence, and “God-fidence”
    • Why people sabotage their dreams (and how the enemy keeps you stuck)
    • The truth about worth vs. “deserving” (and why worth isn’t performance-based)
    • A powerful story about asking for what you’re worth (and what happened next)
    • Encouragement for hard seasons—including a NICU journey—and how to “spiral up,” not down
    • One daily habit to build confidence over time: saying yes to yourself (and your God-given gifts)

  • The Secret to Lasting Joy: Intimacy With God + Declarations

    In this episode of Take Back Your Authority with Heather Bulthuis, we’re talking about JOY—not the “everything is perfect” kind of joy, but the deep, lasting joy that comes from God and stays steady even when life is hard.

    We’ll break down:

    What joy really is (and how it’s different from happiness)

    Why joy is a fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22)

    How joy becomes your strength (Nehemiah 8:10)

    How to shift your attitude and focus when you feel heavy

    Why intimacy with God grows joy (Isaiah 55:11)

    Why Jesus connects asking with full joy (John 16:23–24)

    How praise and declarations help you stay positioned in faith

    If you’ve been feeling discouraged, drained, or stuck in negative thoughts, this episode will help you realign, refocus, and step back into joy—God’s way.

    ✨ Question for you: What’s one thing you’re choosing joy over this week?

  • Think, Speak, Live the Word | Walking in Your Kingdom Inheritance with Terri Gilbert

    In this episode of Take Back Your Authority with Heather Bulthuis, I sit down with my friend Terri Gilbert — author, speaker, entrepreneur, Bible teacher, and the author of God Wants to Prosper You.

    Terri shares her powerful story of growing up knowing about Jesus, but eventually realizing she needed to truly know Him and make Him Lord of her life. Through two divorces, wilderness seasons, and a seemingly impossible land deal, God began revealing Himself to her in a way that transformed her life.

    We talk about what it means to walk in your full Kingdom inheritance, renew your mind with God’s Word, speak His promises over your life, and live successfully in God’s Kingdom.

    Terri also shares about her new book, Think-Speak-Live the Word: Living Successfully in God’s Kingdom, coming out June 1, 2026 on Amazon.

    In this conversation, we discuss:

    ✨ Knowing Jesus personally, not just knowing about Him
    ✨ What God teaches us in wilderness seasons
    ✨ Walking in your Kingdom inheritance
    ✨ The difference between salvation and sanctification
    ✨ Renewing your mind with God’s Word
    ✨ The power of what you think and speak
    ✨ Biblical prosperity and stewardship
    ✨ Taking authority over what the enemy is trying to steal
    ✨ Living the life God created you to live

    Terri reminds us that God has more for us, and He wants us to grow, mature, and walk in the fullness of what Jesus has already made available.

  • Your Words Are Powerful: How to Pray Scripture and See Results

    Welcome back to Take Back Your Authority with Heather Bulthuis! In today’s episode, we’re talking about prayer + faith—and why the words you speak matter more than you think.

    We start by putting on the full Armor of God (Ephesians 6:10–17) and then unpack how to pray in a way that’s aligned with Scripture—so you’re not speaking fear, but speaking faith.

    In this message, you’ll learn:

    Why faith-filled words shift your life (and why fear-filled words keep you stuck)

    How to grow your faith: “faith comes from hearing the Word…” (Romans 10:17)

    Why “long prayers” aren’t the goal—speaking God’s Word in faith is.

    How to start declaring what you desire instead of repeating the problem
