When People Remember Who You Used to Be


Listen Later

What do you do when God has changed you but people still remember who you used to be? In this episode, Pastor Roderick Webster unpacks John 12:1-2 where Lazarus—after being raised from the dead—sits at the table with Jesus in front of everyone who knew his story.

Discover why some people are uncomfortable with your transformation, how their memories try to pull you back into your old identity, and the four practical steps to live boldly in who God made you. Learn why you need to stop apologizing for being different, how to set boundaries with people who refuse to see your change, and what it means to "sit at the table" confidently even when others can't forget your past.

If you've been shrinking back because of people's expectations or hiding your new life because of their judgments, this message will give you the courage to live loudly in your transformation.
