Andrea continues to shares her story and gets very personal about lies that plagued her during the early days of her life and ministry. The lies of the enemy were debilitating and she often normalized them and accepted the lies as truth.

God never leaves us in our lies! He is faithful to show us the truth. Thankfully Andrea engaged in spiritual battle and replaced the the lies with truth!

Three Lies Andrea Believed in the Past

1. "I was a burden to the people around me."

2. "I have to pay a kindness back by doing something nice or equally nicer for the people around me."

3. "I am always living on the outside."

God intersected Andrea's life with truth. Instead of the lies, she began to believe:

1. "God created me for a purpose! My life is not an accident."

2. "I can accept the kindness of God and the kindness of others as I enjoy the spacious place of grace. I can be real with God and others as I embrace and celebrate community in authentic ways."

3. "I am a member of the family of God. Jesus bought my life with His blood and I am connected to others based on the blood of Jesus Christ!"
