286 | Shame vs. Conviction: How to Tell Which Voice You’re Hearing After Abortion (and the Scripture That Separates Them)

Have you been feeling guilty about your abortion — or sensing a pull to finally address it — but you’re not sure where those feelings are coming from? In this episode, we’re unpacking one of the most confusing and important questions in abortion recovery: Is this shame… or is it conviction? Understanding the difference can change everything about how you heal, how you see God, and how you move forward. I’m sharing honestly about the season when I believed my shame was coming from God — when I didn’t yet understand His grace or His character — and how that misunderstanding kept me stuck, hiding, and afraid of forgiveness. You’ll learn: The key difference between shame and conviction — and why confusing the two is so damaging Why shame attacks your identity, but conviction invites you into healing How the Holy Spirit uses conviction to lead us to repentance — not condemnation The specific Scriptures that help separate God’s voice from the enemy’s lies This episode will help you stop internalizing your past as your identity and start responding to God’s invitation with confidence, clarity, and hope. If you’ve been unsure which voice you’re hearing, this episode will help you recognize truth, reject shame, and take the next step toward freedom. 🤍   🚨 Ready to take your first step toward healing after abortion?
