Have you ever caught yourself being your own worst critic, focusing on the things you dislike about yourself or the struggles you face? It's time to confront this harsh reality and learn how to embrace both the good and the bad in our lives. In today's episode, we share our own experiences with personal demons and the destructive power of shame, as well as exploring the difference between guilt and shame and how stepping out of shame and embracing God's love can lead to healing and transformation.

We dive into a powerful story of a sex addict's journey to healing and the importance of exposing our shame to others. Discover how Satan can speak lies into our lives, leading us to believe that we are not enough or unlovable, and how these lies can become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Inspired by the words of James, we discuss the importance of confessing our sins to one another in order to find healing and freedom from the shackles of shame.

Join us as we explore the transformative power of love and how it can help us break free from the lies and pain of the past. Learn how making a conscious choice to speak words of love and acceptance to ourselves can lead to a deeper understanding of our true identity and a closer relationship with God. We wrap up the episode by reminding you that God's love is unconditional and that there is nothing you can do to be separated from that love. So embark on this journey towards embracing our true selves, and remember that we are all the apple of God's eye.

The world’s gone mad! Or so it seems. Anger is in the air. In this series, we talk about three areas we direct our anger, and how grace can help us release that anger - finding peace with God and other people in the process. This week, we address unity in the church. We will never live out God’s dream for us to gather together if we allow our anger to destroy our relationships with one another.

How do you handle conflicts within your church community? Are you the type to dive headfirst into the fight, or do you prefer to avoid confrontation altogether? In this episode, we unpack Ephesians 4:1-3 and discuss the significance of humility, gentleness, patience, and love in maintaining unity in our faith communities. We also recognize the Holy Spirit's role in helping us prioritize love and unity during challenging times.

Jesus has much to teach us about unity, grace, and conflict resolution. By examining Matthew 5:22-24, we explore the importance of reconciliation with our brothers and sisters in Christ, emphasizing the responsibility we have to initiate difficult conversations. Furthermore, we discuss the power of extending and receiving grace during times of conflict, and how doing so can not only strengthen our unity, but also deepen our understanding of God's love in our lives. Join us for this eye-opening conversation on preserving unity and grace in your church community.

In this series, we talk about three areas we direct our anger, and how grace can help us release that anger - finding peace with God and other people in the process. This week, we address navigating our angry culture. We lose our opportunity to give back to the mission of God if we alienate those in the world that we are called to reach.

Do you ever feel like outrage has become the norm in today's culture? From social media arguments to polarizing political debates, it seems like everyone is itching for a fight. In this thought-provoking episode, we tackle the challenge of living in an age of outrage, and how to embody grace in our conversations. As followers of Jesus, we're called to make a difference rather than simply make a point, so we explore how our approach to conversation can set us apart in a world that thrives on division and conflict.

We dive into the metaphor of salt for wisdom, as Paul teaches us to bring out the best flavors in discussions. By asking good questions and responding with gentleness and respect, we show our willingness to understand and connect with others. By living counterculturally and refusing to add fuel to the outrage fire, we can set ourselves apart and make a real impact. Join us as we learn how to embody grace and navigate the often tumultuous world of dialogue, making a difference one conversation at a time.
