(PS- You get 6 months in the Rooted Community for free! 🤭) Have you ever wondered if God can even hear your prayers when you're living in sin? Have you felt the weight of believing that if you run home to Him, you'll be met with disappointment? Today I'm sitting down with Heather O'Brien, healing coach, author, and host of the Heal With God podcast, for one of the most practically powerful conversations I've had on this show. Heather helps Christians who love Jesus but still feel stuck, learn how to hear God clearly, heal deeply, and walk it out. And in this conversation, she gave me tools I genuinely wish I'd had years ago. We explore: Why feeling blocked from God while living in sin is more about us than Him The critical difference between God's loving correction and condemnation Two of the most healing prayers you can pray: "God, it hurt when...and it made me feel..." The question that can surface hidden lies about who God is: "What lie am I believing about You right now?" Why healing in a faith-based space is radically different from healing anywhere else If you've been crying into your pillow without bringing it to God, this one is for you 💙 Connect with Heather O'Brien: 🌐 Free monthly Heal With God Workshop: www.healwithgodworkshop.com 🎙 Podcast: Heal With God, available on all podcast platforms   After you listen, email me and tell me what landed!
