What if you've been spending your whole life trying to discover who you are — when God already told you?In this Season 3 opener, Sheila unpacks one of the most foundational truths of the Christian life: your identity is not something you build, earn, or find. It is received — spoken over you by a God who created you, called you by name, and claimed you as His own before you ever had anything to prove.If you've ever felt hollow behind your accomplishments, exhausted by the pressure to perform, or quietly unsure of who you are beneath all your roles — this episode is for you.In this episode we cover:- Why self-constructed identity always feels unstable- What Isaiah 43:1 actually says about who you are- How women like Esther, Mary, and Ruth lived from received identity- What it looks like practically to stop striving and start receiving- The FREE Kingdom Identity Quiz and how it connects to your calling Scripture: Isaiah 43:1, Ephesians 1, Psalm 139 Take the FREE Kingdom Identity Quiz:hopelightwonder.com/identity Shop Sheila's books:hopelightwonder.com/allbooks Explore the Hope Light Wonder member library:hopelightwonder.com/member-site

Do you believe the spirit realm is real? Many Christians say they believe in angels, demons, and spiritual warfare, but how many of us actually live with an awareness of that reality? In this episode, we'll try to piece together different experiences in the spirit realm and what some people believe many Christians are missing. This conversation is not about fear. It is about discernment, prayer, holiness, Scripture, and the victory of Jesus above all. -- NEW Everyday Miracle compilation book on Amazon: https://a.co/d/45cgbP8 Everyday Miracle compilation book on Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/everyday-miracles-julie-hedenborg/1146173449?ean=9798881501808 Subscribe to Julie's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Website for Everyday Miracles (APPLY!): http://everydaymiraclespodcast.com/ To follow Everyday Miracles Podcast on itunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/everyday-miracles-podcast/id1447430033 On Social: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/everydaymiraclespodcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/everydaymiraclespodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@everydaymiraclespodcast X: https://x.com/miracles9598 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-hedenborg-452028a7/ To email Julie directly: [email protected] -- Scripture ✝️: Ephesians 6:12 Ephesians 6:18 1 Peter 1:15-16 1 John 4:1 Psalm 119:105 Colossians 2:15 1 John 4:4 Hebrews 10:24-25

What if I told you the biggest secret to getting more done isn't more effort — it's Sabbath?In this episode, I'm sharing one of the harder lessons I've had to learn the hard way — including a story about a pacemaker scare years ago that landed me in the hospital, and what happened (or didn't happen) when I got home. Plus, a simple moment washing my hands at McDonald's that taught me what Sabbath actually is. 5 Takeaways from this episode:Power doesn't come from doing more — it comes from rhythms of rest.Sometimes we're so disconnected from our bodies that we don't realize how much rest we actually need — until something forces the issue.Sabbath isn't just physical rest. It's turning your attention to what God is doing instead of staying focused on yourself and everyone else.Sabbath looks different for everyone — a nap, a bike ride, a quiet moment, even washing your hands at McDonald's.This week's challenge: ask yourself honestly — what does Sabbath actually look like for me? And would I be willing to try something different this week?

What happens when a sitting U.S. Congressman survives not one but multiple life threatening events in the same year?In this episode of Witness the Wonder, Congressman Barry Loudermilk shares his extraordinary personal testimony of faith, survival, and God's protection.He recounts being targeted in the 2017 Congressional Baseball Shooting, where 22 bullets were fired and none hit him, a near fatal rollover crash that nearly claimed his wife's life, a professional assassination attempt in the North Georgia mountains traced to a cryptic FBI clue, a train collision involving members of Congress, and a season of intense political persecution that required private security and an undisclosed location.More than a survival story, this is a powerful God story about faith, miracles, and how God uses decades of smaller trials, a charging bear in Alaska, a rockslide, and a father's injury, to prepare you for the battles you can't yet see.Congressman Loudermilk walks through how faith, Scripture, and the supernatural peace of God carried him when human strength couldn't. He also opens up about PTSD, the emotional weight of political attacks on his reputation, and why he believes suffering is never random when you're walking with God.Key topics: Near death experiences, faith, miracles, God stories, miracle stories, the 2017 Congressional Baseball Shooting, surviving an assassination attempt, God's protection, supernatural protection, answered prayer, signs and wonders, overcoming political persecution, PTSD, and Christian encouragement for hard seasons.

Are screens impacting your child development? Learn how screen time effects influence physical milestones and daily habits for young kids. Host Tina Yeager sits down with pediatric physical therapist and author Ginny Cruz to explore the connection between digital media and early childhood growth. If you are a parent wondering how much device usage is appropriate, this conversation provides a clear perspective on balancing technology with necessary physical movement. We discuss the insights found in Ginny Cruz's book, The New Mom's Guide, to help you navigate modern parenting challenges. You will gain a better understanding of how screen time effects manifest in physical play and social interaction. By applying these professional observations, you can create healthier screen habits for your family without the guilt. Episode Highlights Startling Research Multiple studies now confirm that excessive screen time alters children's brain development. MRIs have revealed that brains are forming circuitry differently, leading to issues later in life 02:42. Longitudinal studies show children exposed to more than two hours of daily screen time are more likely to report higher anxiety, trouble making decisions, and persistent struggles with executive functioning even into their teens 04:18. Emotional & Social Effects Many kids now experience increased anxiety, depression, anger, and impulse control issues. Overstimulation from bright, fast-paced content can lead to meltdowns or shutdowns 05:32, 16:36. Real-life connection is irreplaceable: overuse of screens impacts attachment, facial recognition, and social skills—fundamentals for a healthy, well-adjusted child 08:37, 09:29. Tips & Solutions for Healthier Habits No screens for babies under one year (except video chats with loved ones). For toddlers, limit to about one hour a day, focusing on high-quality, educational programming 11:00. Parents: Your own screen habits matter. Kids notice when your attention is diverted, even nonverbally! Taking inventory of your digital usage can profoundly impact your child's desire and ability to connect 11:59. Replace screens with Montessori-style toys, blocks, pretend play, and books. Fewer, simpler toys encourage imagination, focus, and problem-solving 20:09. Introduce change gradually—cut back screen time in small steps and have alternative activities ready 21:38. Don't underestimate the power of quiet, calm environments. Overstimulation is very real and can make even the calmest child anxious or irritable 16:36. ✨ Final Thought "Everything in moderation." The foundation built in early childhood shapes everything that follows. Small changes can make a world of difference in helping our kids flourish 24:32.

Have you ever felt like your brain is going in a hundred directions at once — while your inner critic keeps telling you that you are not doing enough, not obeying fast enough, or not measuring up spiritually?In this episode of The Redeemed Perfectionist, Leneé Pezzano closes out the ADHD, perfectionism, and faith series with Emily Morrone, an ADHD coach and licensed pastoral counselor. Together, they talk about the connection between ADHD, perfectionism, nervous system safety, rejection sensitivity, spiritual shame, and learning to rest in Jesus.Emily shares how ADHD can show up as internal hyper-awareness, emotional overwhelm, control, avoidance, rejection sensitivity, and difficulty staying present. She also explains the green, yellow, and red zones of nervous system regulation — and how those states can affect the way we relate to God, ourselves, and others.This conversation is especially for the high-achieving Christian woman who loves God deeply but still feels afraid of disappointing Him. If you have ever confused obedience with pressure, struggled to believe God is safe, or felt like your ADHD symptoms were proof of spiritual failure, this episode will help you begin seeing yourself through the lens of grace instead of shame.Together, Leneé and Emily talk about: Why ADHD is not a character flaw or spiritual failure  How perfectionism can distort the way we see God  Why rejection sensitivity can feel so intense for the ADHD brain  What nervous system safety has to do with faith  How control and avoidance may be signs of feeling threatened  Why small steps matter in your walk with Jesus  What it means to come to God with belief and unbelief  How to begin rebuilding trust with God when He does not feel safe yet  Why your mustard seed of faith really is enough to begin If you are tired of striving, overthinking, shutting down, or trying to fix everything immediately, this episode is an invitation to stop calling yourself broken and start asking, “Lord, what are You showing me about how You made me, how You love me, and how You want to lead me?”God is not waiting for you to become perfect before He draws near. He is here now. He is gentle now. And He is a safe place.CONNECT WITH EMILYFacebook Group: Equipped Coaching | FacebookSupport Group for Christian Moms of Anxious Kids: Christian Moms of Anxious Kids (Support Group) | FacebookGRACE SCALE QUIZ - Part with Perfectionism.

Ever feel like everyone else seems to hear from God… except you?If you've struggled to hear God's voice, questioned whether God still performs miracles, or wondered if you've wandered too far from Him, you're not alone.Josh grew up Buddhist. Shelly knew about Jesus but was living a life she knew wasn't leading anywhere good. Neither of them expected God to meet them in the middle of doubts, addictions, pain, and unanswered questions.What followed included freedom they couldn't manufacture, healing after seventeen years of chronic pain, and moments that changed the way they saw God.But the thing that changed them most wasn't a miracle.It was discovering they had never been as far from Him as they thought.______________________________ Never miss an episode.Get each week's episode and listening links delivered straight to your inbox.Sign up here______________________________✨ Curious about the X39 patches we mentioned in this episode?Life Wave’s patented phototherapy patches use light technology with no drugs or stimulants.If you’ve been wondering why people keep talking about X39, you can learn more here.Because feeling good is just another way we get to experience God’s goodness!_____________________________________ People are using this membership to save money on products they already buy… and some are earning weekly income simply by sharing it.No inventory.

What if every temple ever built—every oracle, every sacred spring, every desperate question hurled toward heaven—was humanity reaching for something it couldn't name until the answer finally arrived?In this GPS episode, we start with breakfast. If you've never stayed in a Turkish hotel, you are missing something. We are talking a full spread every morning. Endless variety. Total abundance. (John went back more than once!) The trip's rhythm exuded care. Full and rested, we arrived at Didyma. It was unlike anything else we had seen.This isn't one of the seven churches but a great depiction of ancient Greece, preserved in stone on the Aegean coast. The Temple of Apollo is twice the size of the Parthenon. One hundred and twenty-two massive Ionic columns, each roughly 19 meters tall. Construction began after Alexander the Great liberated the city in 334 BCE. They built for over five hundred years and never finished it. Why was the inner courtyard open to the sky? Because this was where you came to hear from heaven.This was an oracle, second only to Delphi in the ancient world. Roman emperors, Alexander the Great, kings as well as ordinary people came desperate to hear something from beyond themselves. A sacred spring still flows underground here today. A priestess would descend into the inner sanctuary, and answers would come. Only three of the original 122 columns still stand. But standing next to even one, you understand that the people who built this were not thinking small.Didyma was connected by the Sacred Way to the nearby city of Miletus, a name you may know. In Acts 20, Paul stopped there on his final journey toward Jerusalem, knowing what waited for him. From Miletus, he sent for the elders of the Ephesian church and said goodbye. They wept, threw their arms around him, knowing they would never see his face again. Paul walked this same coastline. He may have seen these columns from the water. And he kept going.In the fourth century AD, the oracle went silent. As Christianity spread and emperors turned to Christ, the temple was closed. A church was built within its walls. The voice that kings had hung their decisions on was replaced by the voice of the gospel.The name Didyma means twin in Greek. Thomas the apostle's Greek name was also Didymos, the doubter, the one who needed proof before he believed. A place built for signs and answers, sharing a name with the disciple who needed them most.The whole ancient world was searching. And the answer came, not through a priestess at a sacred spring but through the One who said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. The oracle went silent. The Word is still speaking.Key Takeaways:The hunger to hear from heaven is ancient; temples like this prove it has always been therePaul kept going toward Jerusalem from this coastline, knowing the costThe oracle went silent, but the Church rose in its place Three columns remain out of 122, and they still feel like a testimonyDidyma means twin; a place built for signs shares a name with Thomas, the disciple who needed themKey Themes: Didyma · Temple of Apollo · Ancient oracle · Paul and Miletus · The search for God · Human longing · Faith vs. signs · The Word of GodWho Will Benefit: The history lover, the skeptic, the searcher, and any believer who needs a reminder that the voice humanity has always strained to hear has been speaking all along.The oracle went silent. The Word is still speaking. God tends to show up in the margins.If this podcast has been a gift to you, help us reach someone who needs it.

Can everyone really hear God's voice? If the answer is yes, why does it sometimes seem so difficult?In this episode of the Samuel's Mantle Podcast, Murray explores one of the greatest obstacles to hearing God—not God's willingness to speak, but the belief systems we've developed through culture, religion, education, family, and personal experiences.Discover how these hidden filters shape the way we see God and ourselves, often limiting our ability to recognize His voice. Through biblical teaching and practical illustrations, you'll learn why God often speaks through dreams, visions, impressions, and gentle promptings, and how renewing your perspective can open the door to a deeper relationship with your heavenly Father.Whether you've always wondered if you can hear God or you've struggled to recognize His voice, this episode will encourage you to lay aside old assumptions and embrace the invitation of the New Covenant: "My sheep hear My voice."Join us as we discover that hearing God isn't reserved for a select few—it's part of every believer's relationship with a loving Father.

In This Episode, We Talk About Hearing God’s voice and recognizing divine direction from a young age How childhood dreams can become God-given assignments Overcoming bullying, depression, and loss of purpose Taking bold steps of faith after disappointment What it means to trust God when plans do not unfold as expected Sailing through literal storms and learning to overcome fear How God uses people, nature, timing, and “impossible coincidences” to encourage us Serving others while traveling the world Alison’s books, blog, and sailing journey Key Takeaways 1. God plants dreams before we understand them. As a child, Alison had a vision of sailing across the water before sailing was even part of her world. Years later, that dream became part of her life’s journey. 2. Fear may be real, but it does not get the final word. After a terrifying storm at sea, Alison struggled with panic and fear. But God continued to send encouragement, including the exact mentor she needed at the exact moment she was ready to give up. 3. God’s timing is never random. Alison’s story is filled with moments that were “too much to be coincidence,” including meeting her mentor three boats away in a foreign harbor and later encountering the very boat that had inspired her courage. 4. Purpose can be reborn after disappointment. After losing her teaching career and falling into depression, Alison and her husband chose to live the dream God had placed in their hearts. 5. You are not alone in the storm. Pamela reminds listeners that even when we feel alone, God is before us, behind us, and with us in the journey. Memorable Quotes “When somebody speaks the phrase that God personally handed to you, you know it’s destiny.” “The damage to the boat was covered by insurance. The damage it did to me on the inside, I didn’t think it could be fixed.” “God put him three boats away.” “Whatever God wants us to do, that’s what we’ll do.” “You may feel alone, but you are not alone.” Guest Resources Alison’s sailing blog: Sailmates.orgAuthor website: AlisonGieschen.comYouTube Channel: Sailing EquusBooks mentioned: Riding the Waves of Reality: Tales of Turmoil and Triumph Riding the Waves of Reality II: Mediterranean Mayhem and Magic The Seven: An Odyssey of Seven Horses and Seven Souls Listener Reflection Where has fear been speaking louder than faith in your life? This episode invites you to pause and ask: Is that fear really my Father’s voice? God’s voice brings peace, courage, hope, wisdom, and direction. Fear may come like a storm, but faith reminds us that God is still guiding the boat.

Marriage rates in America have hit historic lows, dating apps have never been bigger, and screens are quietly replacing real human connection. On this episode of The UPside, Conversations that Light UP the World, host Marion MacKenzie sits down with bestselling author, speaker, and media leader Ryan Dobson — son of Dr. James Dobson — for an honest, funny, and deeply moving conversation about what he calls the "romantic recession."Ryan pulls no punches on toxic feminism myths, the digital habits and content quietly isolating men and women from each other, and why he believes real masculinity still has a place in a healthy marriage. The conversation turns deeply personal as Ryan opens up about walking his wife, Laura, through a cancer diagnosis — and what that fight taught him about commitment, faith, and what it really means to go the distance with someone.Whether you're married, dating, or just trying to make sense of relationships today, this conversation will make you laugh, make you think, and leave you with real hope for what's possible with God at the center.

Today we're tackling one of the biggest things quietly running people's lives right now — and no, it's not politics. It's anxiety.I'm breaking down the real difference between fear and anxiety, why so many of us have learned to push our emotions down just to function, and sharing a story from early in my vision loss journey — standing in a doorway in the dark, not knowing how to get to my ride, and the moment someone simply asked, "Would you like help?" 5 Takeaways from this episode:Fear responds to something real and present. Anxiety responds to something that hasn't happened yet — the "what if."So many of us have gotten so good at pushing emotions down that we don't even know what anxiety feels like in our bodies anymore.Anxiety isn't something to fight — it's information. It's trying to tell you something.Sometimes what anxiety is protecting you from is asking for help, or accepting a new limit, or stepping into something better.This week's challenge: pay attention to what anxiety (or fear) is trying to tell you. Give it a voice instead of pushing it down.

Have you ever stopped to read the ingredient label on your favorite body lotion, mascara, or lipstick? In this eye-opening episode, Lynn is joined by documentary filmmaker Andrea Palombella to expose the unregulated and often toxic world of cosmetics and personal care products.Lynn opens up about her raw, personal health crisis—battling months of unexplained hair loss, weight gain, panic attacks, and severe insomnia—only to discover that an endocrine disruptor called BHT in her daily body lotion was the culprit. Andrea shares what inspired her upcoming documentary, Pretty Ugly, tracing her journey back to her mother’s breast cancer diagnosis and the shocking realization that what we put on our bodies can be just as hazardous as what we put in them. Together, they break down the science of bioaccumulation, the "cocktail effect" of daily chemical exposure, and how consumers can protect themselves.https://www.lynneldridge.com/Subscribe: www.youtube.com/channel/UCx7zR7_3IKF81JWU6IzSzBA?sub_confirmation=1Follow me on Facebook: /lynneldridge.usInstagram: @lynneldridgeofficial*This is Biblically based and Holy Spirit leading.

What if a visit to the place Jesus called where Satan's throne is ended with a rainbow?In this GPS episode, in our In the Margins series, we almost didn't make it to Pergamum at all. You may remember that the reason we pivoted our day was because storms had rolled into Pergamum that morning. By the time we arrived, the storms had passed. And at the end of that day, a rainbow showed over the acropolis.Before we get to the rainbow, let's talk about marble. Many of these ancient cities are paved with it. Though it's beautiful, it's also extraordinarily slippery on a steep hillside. Pergamum sits on a dramatic acropolis, so the ground is constantly sloping. The edges of those ancient slabs catch you off guard. Grippy soles. No pride about holding onto someone's arm.Pergamum—modern-day Bergama, Turkey—was one of the wealthiest and most powerful cities in the Roman world, rivaled only by Ephesus. It held one of the greatest libraries in the ancient world, second only to Alexandria — Mark Antony eventually gave its entire scroll collection to Cleopatra. We passed through the Royal Gates and walked up to those foundations, looking out over the valley below.The thing that defines Pergamum spiritually is the Altar of Zeus—massive, ornate, dramatic—that once stood on the acropolis. Many scholars believe this is what Jesus meant when He said: I know that you live where Satan's throne is. Jonathan Cahn taught about it right there. Then he told us where the altar is today. It's not in Pergamum but in Berlin, at the Pergamon Museum, excavated by German archaeologists in the late 1800s and shipped to the heart of Europe. Jonathan didn't leave that alone.Then there is Antipas. Most people have never heard of him. He barely gets a sentence in Scripture. But Jesus says his name out loud: my faithful witness, Antipas, who was martyred among you, where Satan lives. Antipas is believed to be one of the first Christians executed by Rome, placed inside a hollow bronze bull with a fire lit underneath it. According to tradition, he died praying for his congregation. The word martyr comes from the Greek word for witness. He bore witness. To the end. In that place.Jesus commends this church for holding fast even there. But He has a correction: some were compromising, following teachers who said blending in was acceptable. And then He makes a promise so personal it stops you cold—hidden manna, and a white stone with a new name that only God and the one who receives it will ever know.We stood where the throne once stood. We walked where Antipas walked. And at the end of the day, a rainbow arched over Pergamum — the first covenant sign God ever gave humanity, over the darkest city on the tour.Key Takeaways:God clears the storm in His timing — we were spared, and we saw itThe Altar of Zeus — what Jesus called Satan's throne — now stands in BerlinAntipas bore witness to the end, in the darkest place, praying for his peopleCompromise is subtle — the teaching of Balaam looks different from outright denialThe white stone: God has a name for you that only He knowsKey Themes: Pergamum · Altar of Zeus · Antipas · Spiritual warfare · Holding fast · God's covenant · Hidden manna · White stone · Revelation TourWho Will Benefit: Anyone standing firm in a dark place, tempted to compromise just enough to survive, or who needs to know God sees them — specifically, personally, by name.Whatever you're holding fast to today — keep holding. God tends to show up in the margins.If this podcast has been a gift to you, help us reach someone who needs it.

Coming Next WeekSeason 3 begins with a special America's 250th episode featuring Congressman Barry Loudermilk as he shares remarkable stories of God's providence throughout America's founding.

Travel Content Creator's Journey Pamela and Kerry had a casual conversation before starting their recorded discussion about Kerry's transition from corporate America to her current life as a travel content creator. Pamela introduced Kerry as "Miss World Traveler" who has visited over 140 countries and 50 states, and won multiple awards including the Legacy Award and Best On-Air Talent through the AVA Digital Awards. Kerry began sharing her faith journey, explaining how God has guided her through various life pivots and transitions, though she didn't complete her full story during this portion of the conversation. Kerry's Faith Journey Transition Kerry shared her faith journey, explaining how she transitioned from working in a family-owned business to becoming "Ms. World Traveler." She described how over 20 years, God was preparing her for this calling by providing skills, experiences, and financial readiness. Kerry emphasized her trust in God's plan rather than making specific life plans herself, noting how her life diverged from her early expectations of being married by 24 and having children by 30. Pageantry Mentoring Journey Kerry shared her journey into pageantry, explaining how she initially resisted the call but ultimately followed it, leading to a 40-year career mentoring young women. She emphasized that her focus was on spiritual and personal growth rather than achieving high rankings or coaching famous beauty queens. While she no longer coaches as much due to her work with Ms. World Traveler, Kerry continues to mentor young women when God sends her candidates, and has had several first runner-ups to Miss USA and Miss Teen USA among her mentees. Ms. World Traveler Business Discussion Kerry explained that Ms. World Traveler is both a personal brand and a business that includes a YouTube channel featuring short web series episodes focused on inspiring women to travel and shop locally while meeting interesting people. She noted that while she initially had resistance to social media, she now successfully runs the business with help from her niece who handles social media and editing. The discussion ended with Pamela asking about recommendations for women in transition, but the transcript ended before Kerry could respond to this question. Following Passion and Trusting God Pamela and Kerry discussed the importance of following one's passion and taking risks, especially as people age. Kerry emphasized that it's never too late to pursue new opportunities and shared her belief that God places dreams in people's hearts for a reason. They also talked about the benefits of trusting in God during challenging times, using Dolly Parton as an example of someone who achieved success later in life. The conversation touched on the ripple effect of stepping out in faith and the peace that comes from trusting in God's plan. Kerry's Travel and Creative Journey Kerry shared her new book project documenting her home decor, which reflects her art and travels, as a way to bless others with her creative surroundings. She discussed her Miss World Traveler business where she travels globally to film content about style, shopping, and cultural experiences while using her banner as a marketing tool and ministry opportunity. The conversation explored themes of faith, personal growth, and following divine guidance in various life stages, with Kerry emphasizing how travel serves as a metaphor for life's journey.

Can you build a child's faith before they can even read?Research shows that 85% of people who followChrist make that decision by age eight—making the early years one of the most important opportunities for spiritual formation. In this joyful and practical conversation, Marion MacKenzie sits down with author, speaker, worship leader, and beloved children's entertainer Jean Thomason, knownaround the world as Miss PattyCake®.

Have you done the Bible studies, declared the truth out loud, been to counseling — and still feel stuck? What if that's not a faith problem? What if it's a wiring problem?In this powerful bonus episode, I'm joined by transformational coach and Kingdom neurocoaching trainer Raven Van Asten, founder of Kumi Collective, who has spent over 29 years helping people understand how the brain forms beliefs, stores trauma, and — here's the good news — how God designed us to be rewired from the inside out.This isn't self-help. This isn't new age. This is Romans 12:2 made practical.Together we're talking about:✦ What "vain imaginations" actually means in the Greek — and why your looping thoughts aren't a discipline problem ✦ How limiting beliefs get wired into your nervous system (and why willpower alone can't undo them) ✦ The reconsolidation window — the God-designed 6-hour window where the brain forms new neural networks after healing work ✦ What it looks like when the Holy Spirit walks into a memory and rewrites it with His presence ✦ How perfectionism is often rooted in shame — and what freedom actually looks and feels like ✦ Why brain rewiring and Biblical truth aren't in conflict — they were always meant to work togetherWhether you've been stuck in the same belief system for years, you're a coach or counselor looking to expand how you help others get free, or you simply want God to feel like a safe space again — this episode is for you.For coaches, counselors, and ministry leaders: Raven's 12-week Kingdom Neuro Coaching Certification begins June 29th.

What do you do when the past doesn't always stay in the past? In this episode, I'm getting honest about the cycles we fall back into — the ones that surprise even us — and where they actually come from.I'm sharing my own story about speaking — from passing out giving a speech in high school, to being told "leave the preaching to the men," to losing my vision and hearing and thinking that ship had sailed for good. And how a counselor finally helped me see what was really driving all of it. 5 Takeaways from this episode:The patterns that surprise us — the ones that feel out of nowhere — usually aren't out of nowhere at all.You can accomplish a lot and still feel like it's never enough if you're chasing something from your past.Stuffing the past doesn't make it go away — it just waits for the wrong moment to surface.When something makes you feel "off," get curious instead of dismissive. Ask: when have I felt this way before?This week's challenge: get curious about what's surfacing from your past — write it down, draw it, or share it.

Did you know forgiveness is a decision? Welcome to Flourish-Meant, where we explore transformative paths to spiritual and emotional growth. In today's episode, we delve into the liberating power of forgiveness with special guest Carla Shelton—speaker, author, and host of the Monday Manna One Minute Inspirational Show on YouTube. Drawing from her own journey of overcoming hurt, resentment, and bitterness in the workplace, Carla shares why forgiveness is not merely a feeling but a decisive choice. Together, we'll uncover common misconceptions about forgiveness, the impact of unresolved pain, the process of letting go, and the importance of establishing healthy boundaries. Whether you're struggling to release past wounds or seeking freedom in your relationships, Carla's wisdom will guide you toward the empowerment and healing found when you choose to forgive. Key Takeaways from Our Conversation with Carla Shelton Forgiveness Is a Decision, Not a Feeling Many believe forgiveness must be felt, but as Carla shares, it's actually a conscious choice—a commandment that brings freedom regardless of your emotions 12:10. Understanding What Forgiveness IS and ISN'T Forgiving does not excuse or condone someone's actions. It is not giving someone a "get out of jail free card"—it's about releasing yourself from bitterness and pain 05:36. Forgiveness Is Layered and May Take Time Healing sometimes requires peeling back emotional layers, especially if you've suffered deep wounds such as ongoing abuse or betrayal 03:19. You Can Forgive Without Reconciliation Forgiveness and reconciliation are separate processes. You can set healthy boundaries while still releasing forgiveness, even if the other person isn't sorry or doesn't change 13:47. Taking Action: Carla's Practical Steps Carla recommends journaling your feelings, expressing them in prayer, and releasing negative emotions to God. Sometimes, as in her own journey, forgiveness also means blessing those who hurt you 09:00, 21:02. Inspirational Scripture "A person's wisdom makes them patient. They will be honored if they forgive someone who sins against them." — Proverbs 19:11 Connect with Carla Shelton Book: Forgiveness is a Decision (Available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Trilogy, and more) Website: carlashelton.com YouTube: Monday Manna Inspiration (one-minute spiritual encouragements weekly) Reflect & Flourish Are you holding on to any bitterness or resentment?

We go beyond the science of perfectionism and anxiety and get into what healing actually looks like when the sheep stops fighting to escape the mountain and finally lets the Shepherd come in.In this episode we cover:What it looks like to stop performing for God and actually let Him father youThe neuroscience behind why we literally cannot heal as well in isolation — and what Dr. Ash accidentally discovered in her PhD research about community, oxytocin, and the brain's capacity for changeThe inheritance that matters more than anything you could leave in a bank accountADHD, perfectionism, and what it means to live in harmony with how you're wired instead of fighting itDr. Ash's "Tong Theory" and why your diagnosis doesn't get to be your ceilingWhat happened during worship that Dr. Ash hadn't shared with anyone — until this conversationHow to move from repenting out of fear to repenting from a place of graceWhy faith is the opposite of control — and how that changes everything for the perfectionistWhether you're navigating anxiety, perfectionism, relational trauma, or a complicated relationship with God, this conversation will give you hope that healing is not only possible — it's already in motion.

What if the plan you didn't choose—the one you got pushed into by a thunderstorm, a rerouted bus, and a restaurant nobody had heard of—turned out to be exactly the plan God had in mind all along?In this episode of God's Power Stories and our series In the Margins, we were supposed to go straight to Thyatira, then Pergamum, then stop for lunch. But thunderstorms rolled into Pergamum and drenched everything in sight. We pivoted. John's first reaction: Great. Now we're winging it. But what unfolded was so layered and so clearly orchestrated that the thunderstorm felt less like bad luck and more like an escort.Our guide Sinan took us to a restaurant owned by a personal friend—a man who had started with nothing, with food nobody would try. Until Sinan struck up a conversation and said: Let me taste your food. One act of noticing changed a man's life. Now he serves legendary kebabs—and he serenaded our entire group with a Turkish love song about longing and giving everything. I felt it without understanding a word. The translation came later, and it landed right at the feet of Lydia.God wasn't done with that lunch. That's where I met Marcia—a woman writing a memoir, unsure of the next steps—and here I am, an author, at a restaurant we were never supposed to be in. Divine appointment. Then John crossed paths with Jonathan Cahn in the restaurant hallway. Apparently one divine appointment per lunch wasn't enough.Then we made it to Thyatira—the only one of the seven churches built on completely flat land. No hills, no defenses, easily invaded, historically overlooked. A city famous for its trade guilds and purple dye. Which brings us to Lydia—a purple cloth dealer from Thyatira, considered the first person on European soil to give her heart to Christ. Paul found her praying by a river in Philippi. The Lord opened her heart. She and her household were baptized. She opened her home. She changed a continent.Of all seven letters in Revelation, Thyatira's is the longest—yet Thyatira was the most insignificant of the seven cities. Jesus praised their growth (your last works are greater than your first), then named the pressure: compromise just enough to fit in, keep your livelihood, go along to get along. Real in the first century. Real right now. His promise to those who hold fast: I will give you the morning star. In Revelation, Jesus calls himself that. He was promising himself.Key Takeaways:God reroutes with precision — none of it was on the itineraryOne conversation can change a life — the gospel pattern in miniatureLydia is the model — open heart, open home, open historyThe overlooked place gets the longest letter — that is not the whole storyCompromise is a slow fade — the promise to those who hold fast is Jesus himselfKey Themes: Divine redirection · Divine appointment · Lydia · Church at Thyatira · Spiritual compromise · God in the unplannedWho Will Benefit: Anyone navigating an unplanned season, feeling overlooked, or facing pressure to compromise their faith just enough to fit in.Whether you're on flat ground with no defenses or sitting in a detour you didn't plan—stay open. God tends to show up in the margins.If this podcast has been a gift to you, help us reach someone who needs it.

Many Christians believe hearing God's voice is reserved for prophets, pastors, or especially gifted believers. But is that really what Scripture teaches?In this episode, Tricia introduces a teaching by Murray that explores the dramatic shift that took place through Jesus Christ and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Looking at both Old and New Testament passages, they examine how the role of prophets changed under the New Covenant and why every believer now has direct access to God.Discover what Joel's prophecy means for us today, why Jesus called the Holy Spirit our Helper and Teacher, and how the language of dreams, visions, impressions, and revelation became available to all God's children.Through biblical teaching and powerful real-life stories, you'll be encouraged to see hearing God's voice not as an elite gift for a select few, but as part of normal Christian life.And as the episode concludes, a new question emerges: If God is still speaking, what might be preventing us from hearing Him?Scriptures discussed include Joel 2, Acts 2, John 16, James 5, Matthew 11, and 1 Corinthians 14.

Angel Faulk came to The UPside Conversations with a story that is part medical miracle, part spiritual journey, and part testament to what God can do when a woman refuses to stoppraising — even when everything around her is falling apart.The physical trial she faced- a giant brain tumor called meningioma- was extraordinary. What followed was a physical battle — one that would test her body, her family, her faith, and ultimately her willingness to praise a God she could not always see working. And what God did in response will leave you speechless. In this conversation, Angel shares:•    What she discovered when a routine symptom became a life-threatening diagnosis•    How she defied the healing timeline her doctors gave her — and what made the difference•    The prayer watch that may have done what medicine could not•    Her 22-year fight for justice and the God who saw it through•    Why praise is not a feeling but a weapon•    Her top nutrition and fitness principles for fighting disease and staying strong•    Her book: Praise Through the Pain: Diagnosis to DestinyTAGS: faith, healing, brain tumor, meningioma, praise, prayer, cancer healing, health and healing, fitness, faith and healing, forgiveness, justice, Christian testimony, survivor, Angel Faulk, Praise Through the Pain, The UPside Conversations, Marion MacKenzie, Highlander Studios, women of faith, health and wellness, Christian fitness, CTN, Nashville #AngelFaulk #PraiseThroughThePain #ChristianTestimony #FaithAndHealing #TheUPsideConversations #MarionMacKenzie #HighlanderStudios #WomenOfFaith#ChristianPodcast #GodHeals #ChristianFitness #FaithOverFear #SurvivorStory #PrayerWorks #ChristianTalkShow #Nashville #BrainHealth #Meningioma #CourageAndFaith #CancerHealing

Spiritual Heritage and Ministry Background Karon shared her background as a co-founder of IBTV Faith Network and owner of a 30-year-old air conditioning company, explaining how she had to send her team home due to an emergency at work. She discussed her family's strong Pentecostal heritage, including her grandmother's prophetic calling and prayer warrior activities, which influenced her own spiritual gifts and prophetic ministry. Karon described how she grew up in a faith-filled environment where her family experienced miracles and prophetic experiences, and how this legacy continued through her mother who remains an active prophetess in their church. Prophetic Gifts and Spiritual Discernment Karon discussed the importance of understanding different prophetic gifts and callings, emphasizing the need for proper biblical foundation and prayer in discerning one's spiritual gifts. She shared her experience teaching prophetic giftings through a certified course with an international group and her personal journey of leaving corporate America to pursue her faith calling. Karon also described how she and her husband faced significant challenges including autoimmune diseases, which led them to deepen their prayer and worship life, ultimately resulting in miraculous healings. Faith Healing Experience Sharing Karon shared her experience of being diagnosed with an incurable disease and how she and her husband sought healing through prayer and studying teachings from preachers like Smith Wigglesworth and E.W. Kenyon. She described how her body was healed overnight after prayer with her group, including the disappearance of sores and neuropathy. Karon emphasized the importance of having a "convicting faith" rather than reckless presumption when seeking divine intervention, and how she grew in trust through daily Bible study and prayer. Faith Healing Experience Sharing Karon shared her experience of faith healing from a serious medical condition, describing how she used spiritual principles to overcome her illness. She explained that God taught her to think of faith as an airplane gaining altitude, where supernatural healing would eventually override natural conditions. Karon described how she received a second, worse diagnosis but chose to share it only with a small group of faith-believing family members, and ultimately experienced a miracle during a prayer meeting where she heard "it's done" and woke up the next day completely healed with new skin. Faith During Health Crisis Karon shared a story about how her husband's serious health crisis led to multiple transfusions and potential leukemia diagnosis, but they relied on their faith in God rather than their own faith. She emphasized the importance of knowing the character of God and trusting in His unmovable nature during life's storms. Karon and her husband maintained that they were not putting faith in themselves but in the unshakable character of God throughout their challenging situation. Faith During Medical Crisis Karon shared her experience of faith during her husband's battle with a deadly bone marrow condition, describing how they had to navigate conflicting information between medical diagnoses and scriptural promises. She explained how they chose to trust in divine healing despite challenging circumstances, including her husband's prolonged illness and quarantine. Karon described the daily spiritual battles they faced and recounted a significant moment when her husband received verses from God about bone marrow healing and restoration, which confirmed their faith in divine intervention. Faith Journey Through Illness Karon shared her faith journey during her husband Tom's battle with a blood disorder, describing how she and her family relied on scripture to cope with his illness. She explained how they used verses from Philippians, Proverbs, and Zechariah to speak healing

She hated God, drank, did drugs, and smoked two packs a day — and believed she was too far gone for God to ever want her. Then one Sunday changed everything.Kristin Kurtz didn't grow up in church. She grew up in chaos — constant moves, trauma, and a deep belief that if God existed, He wouldn't want anything to do with her. By her teens she was numbing the pain with alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes, living what she calls a "Russian roulette life." She got a DWI at 20 and half-joked she'd burn a church down just by walking in.But when her sister invited her to church in November 2002, something happened she never expected. Within one or two services she gave her heart to Christ — and then every addiction, every craving for alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes just fell off. No withdrawals. No rehab. Just God.That supernatural deliverance was only the beginning of a life marked by miracle after miracle — including children doctors told her she couldn't have, and a house God so clearly prepared just for her family.Today Kristin hosts the Hope Unlocked podcast and runs New Wings Coaching, where she serves as a "wonder activator" — helping women discover the everyday miracles God is already doing around them.If you've ever thought you were too far gone for God to reach, this episode is for you.✨ In this episode:Growing up in chaos and hating GodHer descent into addiction and the "Russian roulette" yearsThe miraculous, instant deliverance — no withdrawals, no rehabHer miscarriage and the miracle children that followedRecognizing God's fingerprints in the small detailsThe house miracle: 25 years of prayers answered all at onceHow Kristin became a "wonder activator" with a mandate to help 10,000 women take flight and release their voice.️ Connect with Kristin: Hope Unlocked Podcast on Apple Podcast and SpotifyWebsite: https://newwingscoaching.net New Wings Coaching:https://bookme.name/newwings/hopeunlocked  New to Witness the Wonder?
