This Changed My Life, with Emilie McCormack episodes

  • Fully Committed

    Alright friends, I go full preacher mode for this one, so buckle up! I couldn't help myself because this verse has been changing my life for over 2 decades. 

    2 Chronicles 16:9  

    "The eyes of the LORD search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him."

    I need God's strength every day in every single area of my life, don't you? He promises to give it to those who are fully committed to him. Let's dive in to learn what it might mean to be fully committed to Jesus.

  • 2 Words That Changed My Life

    What if I’m alone?

    What if my child has special needs?

    What if I get sick?

    What if he/she abandons me?

    What if I loose a child?

    What if they falsely accuse me?

    What if I mess up?

    What if I can’t do it?

    What if I don’t have enough?


    The list goes on and on and on. I'm sure you could add 20 more "what if's" to this list. All very real fears and unknowns. 

    BUT what if we didn't have to be paralyzed by the what if. Instead, change it to EVEN IF. 

    Truly, these 2 words have changed my life. I hope they change yours.

  • The End of 2021: Reflect & Respond

    Seasons, calendars, birthdays, anniversaries, a new year… all moments we should absolutely take advantage of. I hope we can each pause and reflect on the past year, and respond by looking forward to the new one ahead.

    If you’re not a fan of resolutions, fine with me! But don’t miss out on an opportunity for growth. Often real growth comes after a time of really being honest with what is, and what you hope is to come.

    I know we all have areas in our lives that we want to see change. Remember, nothing changes if nothing changes.

    I hope you're encouraged by some of the simple things I will be implementing into my life as I look forward to 2022.

    One of the highlights of my year was getting to share this podcast with YOU. Every message meant so much, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. The best is yet to come.

  • FEAR NOT....But How?

    Honestly ask yourself, are you living in fear most days? Because practically speaking, there is a lot going on in our world right now that might cause you fear.

    Pandemic.

    Sexuality.

    Debating the sanctity of life.

    Politics.

    Government power.

    Social media and effects on teens.

    Racial tensions.

    Deconstruction of faith.

    Just to name a few. 

    So what do we do with the fact that the Bible says “fear not” 365 times?

    The only time someone needs to say "fear not" is when there is a very real threat nearby. 

    I am here to remind you, FEAR NOT. You can live in peace. True peace. Even if circumstances never change, there is peace to be found. 

    Peace has a name. HIS NAME IS JESUS.

  • Leadership In A Pandemic Is Hard

    Leadership is such a gift, and it's also very hard. Especially during such tumultuous and unexpected circumstances like a global pandemic. No one was handed a guidebook for how to lead through such a crisis. 

    My very simple hope is that you know you're not alone. I truly believe you are doing your best. Stay on your knees. Seek Godly counsel. Keep showing grace and praying for kindness and compassion to flow through you. Especially towards those who have made wrong assumptions about you. Do not let the wounds cause you to stand back or be passive. Lead strong. Be bold. Be brave. We need you.

  • The News Might Be Hurting You
    This is a big passion point for me, and I may get a little fiery in this episode. It hits close to home because I saw it happening to me. Cable news was slowly destroying my ability to listen, learn and have compassion for people. Different news stations and social media posts made me full of fear and anxiety. I needed to step back and really evaluate where I was getting information to shape my view of the world. 
    I see so much confusion, judgment, anger, and aggression right now, and I truly believe the news is causing much of it. 
    My prayer and hope is that you will pause and reflect what is truly shaping the way view the world and your fellow man.

  • God's Not Dead. I Saw Him In London.
    The Creator of the Universe is very much alive and moving in the world today. Sometimes we need to be reminded that the Church of Jesus is thriving and growing all over the globe. I got to witness an incredible church in London that deeply encouraged my soul and filled me with incredible hope. I hope you are encouraged and reminded that Jesus is just getting started.
