Ep 5: Overcoming Lies

And that “anyone” can include our self. Some seasons or days (or hours), we need to contend for our freedom, fighting the good fight over our soul.

What we believe about ourselves is the life we live out. Some lies are obvious—as apparent as the nose on our face. But what about the secret lies we say about ourselves? How do we root those weeds out especially when they’ve been planted as a normal part of our inner landscape?

Amy and Tammy talked about the lies they’ve believed, how they broke free, and their (sometimes daily) journey in maintaining it. Hear how Amy struggled to embrace her beloved-ness and what became her turning point in grasping the depths of God’s love (and freedom) for her. Tune in as Tammy shares how one small group of women, a bible study, and a short drive home revealed the mystery of a familiar deception.

Ep 15: Overcoming Your Past

Even though David was a “man after God’s own heart”, he also felt the sting of public rejection. His son, Absalom, turned against him and took a portion of David’s community with him. To make matters worse, as David fled for his life with his people, a man named Shimei threw stones at him. He called David a “worthless fellow” and “evil” (2 Samuel 16:5-14).

How did David recover from a past of murder, adultery, and rejection from his son and his people to finally return to as king once again?

Listen in as Amy and Tammy talk about how we can overcome our not-so-pretty past and how we can be encouraged (and learn) from David’s story. They discuss how we can choose to react when others are cursing or talking about us.

Be part of the conversation as they share some of their own challenges in overcoming their prodigal pasts and how you can look forward, give yourself grace, and have a hope of the future.
