🌊 Ready for the Encounter Retreat? Email me RETREAT and let’s chat! (PS- You get 6 months in the Rooted Community for free! 🤭) The affair doesn't survive on feelings alone. It survives on lies. Carefully constructed, completely convincing stories your brain tells you so you can keep going and still sleep at night. Today I'm naming the five lies I told myself to stay in my affair. Not to shame you, but because naming the lie is the first crack in its power. And you cannot be free from something you haven't been willing to look at clearly. I walk through each lie honestly and share the Scripture or personal truth that finally broke through each one. If you've told yourself any of these, this episode is for you. We cover: Why "I can stop whenever I want" is the lie that keeps you from asking for the help you actually need What Paul says in Romans 6 about using grace as a reason to delay The harm you couldn't see because it was happening to you, not around you Why "no one will ever know" is not a freedom plan The "he'll fall apart without me" lie The one sentence structure that cancels your conscience every single time Want a safe community of women walking this out together?
