The Four Lies about Vulnerability-the Truth That Flips Each One

from Build It Messy · host Kimber Allen

There's something you're carrying that doesn't have a name yet. It's not quite fear, not quite sadness. Just a gnawing that shows up in the quiet moments, the thing you've gotten really good at editing out of your story for everyone else.In this episode, I'm sitting down with you like we're on the couch with coffee, unpacking four lies we've believed about vulnerability. It’s not the kind that overshares with everyone, but the kind that brings your real self before God and the people He placed in your life, because the edited version of you can't do what the real version of you was called to do.If you've ever felt like you need to hold it all together, like your struggle means your faith isn't working, or like the full version of you is just too much, this one's for you.Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introduction[00:00:52] What fear really means in Scripture[00:01:18] Vulnerability is the courage to be seen[00:05:52] The unspoken thing without a name yet[00:08:41] What vulnerability really is[00:11:08] Lie #1: Strong people hold it together[00:14:52] Lie #2: Struggle means your faith isn’t working[00:16:08] Lie #3: Struggle should stay private[00:20:41] Lie #4: The real me is too much[00:23:18] “There was a lot of Kimber in your talk.”[00:25:18] Jesus in the garden: the model of vulnerabilityMemorable Quotes:"Vulnerability is actually courage, and it's the courage to be seen, to be known before God and before the people He placed in your life."
