Bushel Experiences

You have been carrying something heavy. And somewhere in the middle of carrying it, you began to believe that God was done with you. Or that you were too broken to be used. Or that the calling was real but maybe it was for a different version of you. The thing that pressed you down was never meant to be your ending. It was always meant to be your elevation. In this episode of the Bold Becomers Podcast, we are going deep into the framework behind the Bold Becomers work. We are talking about bushel experiences. The seasons, people, situations, and circumstances that press down on your light and make you want to hide, dim, or disappear. But here is what God showed Chara in the middle of her own bushel. The bushel was never designed to extinguish your light. It was designed to reveal how much light is actually there. You don't press something that has nothing in it. IN THIS EPISODE: • What a bushel experience actually is and why Jesus named it in Matthew 5:15 • Why bushel experiences are not random and tend to target your Value, Voice, and Virtue • How Include the Lessons, the I in the SHINE Method, transforms a wound into wisdom • The theological reframe that changes everything: the bushel becomes the tabletop • 5 practical strategies to begin moving through your bushel experience with intention • This week's two-part challenge to start writing your better than before the bushel story KEY QUOTE: "Better than before the bushel is not just a possibility. It is a promise. But you have to be willing to believe it before you can see it." SCRIPTURE REFERENCED: Matthew 5:15: Neither do men take a candle and put it under a bushel, but they put it on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
