  • Introduction: Welcome to Episode #3 of the Broken to Beautiful Podcast. In this episode, we dive into a powerful journaling exercise that played a pivotal role in the first 30 days of the host's alcohol-free journey.

    Verse of the Week: Opening with 2 Corinthians 10:5 , the episode emphasizes the importance of taking thoughts captive and aligning them with the knowledge of God.

    The Power of Acceptance: The host introduces Byron Katie's "The Work" from her book, "Loving what is: four questions that can change your life." The central idea is to stop resisting reality and accept it for what it is, leading to a more peaceful life. Purchase your copy here: Loving What IS

    Understanding "The Work": Exploring the four questions – "Judge your neighbor, write it down, ask four questions, turn it around." The episode delves into the concept that suffering arises from believing thoughts that contradict reality.

    Business of Thoughts: Byron Katie's perspective on stress arising from meddling in others' business is shared. The episode highlights the need to focus on our own lives rather than trying to control external factors.

    Identifying Stressful Thoughts: Listeners are guided through the initial step of The Work – identifying thoughts causing stress. The host encourages journaling thoughts about recent upsetting situations to start the process.

    The Four Questions: The four questions are presented: Is it true? Can you absolutely know that it's true? How do you react when you believe that thought? Who would you be without the thought? A personal example is shared to illustrate the process.

    Transformational Example: The host shares a personal example of using The Work to address stress around the holidays without alcohol. The transformation in perspective is highlighted, emphasizing the power of this introspective exercise.

    Empower Yourself: Listeners are encouraged to apply The Work to their own lives, with the reminder that relief and a change in perspective are often just a thought away.

  • In this episode of the Broken to Beautiful Podcast, I dive into the transformative journey of mastering the art of studying the Bible. Anchored by Psalm 119:105, which declares, "Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path," I share insights from Pastor Craig's impactful message series at Life Church. The Bible, as Pastor Craig highlights, serves as a profound source of guidance, illumination, and revelation.

    To overcome the common hurdle of not knowing how to approach the Bible, I offer five practical tips inspired by Pastor Craig's teachings. From choosing a translation that resonates with you to establishing a consistent time, place, and plan for study, these steps aim to enrich your connection with God's Word. The ultimate goal is progress, not perfection. Reflecting on Psalm 119:105, we're reminded that immersing ourselves in God's guidance brings peace and aligns us with the intended life.

  • Hi Friend! I hope your week is off to a great start! This week's verse of the week is Romans 8:28, "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose." I know this is one that is hard to accept at times. How can Everything work together for good? How can anything good come from this horrible situation? Why did we have to endure so much pain, or why did our loved one...? But we have to take a step back sometimes and just know that God does have a perfect plan and, even if we are in the middle of a situation that seems hopeless at this moment, somehow someway there will be good that comes from it. I know from experience, looking back on all of my deepest darkest times, I can NOW see good that came from each of those circumstances.

    If you found value in this episode, it would mean so much to me if you would leave the podcast a rating and review. I would love to get this message out to more people because I believe so many of us have been held back by our past or the fact that we thought we had to be "perfect" in order to take any action. I am so thankful for you taking the time to do this!

  • In these uncertain times, doubt and worry can easily fill our minds, leading us to believe the worst and trust everything we see on the news and social media. But as Psalm 94:19 reminds us, we can find comfort and renewed hope in God.

    When we redirect our focus to God, He can ease our doubts and worries, providing us with the comfort we need to move forward with renewed hope and cheer. So let's turn to Psalm 94:19 during these difficult times and allow God to guide us towards a brighter tomorrow.

  • In this episode, we explore the meaning behind Proverbs 20:24, which reminds us that God is in control of our lives and directs our steps. It can be hard to let go of the need to understand everything along the way, but this verse offers comfort and guidance for those who struggle with the desire to control their lives.

    We discuss the importance of trusting in God's plan for our lives, even when it's hard to see where the path leads. As humans, we often want to know all the steps ahead and have a clear plan for our lives, but this verse reminds us that we don't need to understand everything along the way. Instead, we can put our trust in God and allow Him to lead us on the path He has laid out for us.

    Join us for an insightful discussion on the power of Proverbs 20:24 and how it can help us find peace and guidance in our lives.

  • Have you ever felt like you're waiting for God to fulfill a dream or goal in your life, but it's taking so long? I was reading Psalm 105:19, and it says that "Until the time came to fulfill his dreams, the Lord tested Joseph's character."

    This verse made me realize that maybe God is testing us and making sure our hearts are pure and our character is strong before He fulfills our dreams. We may think we're ready, but God knows what's best for us, and we may not be prepared yet.

    So, instead of feeling discouraged, we need to trust in God's plan and timing. We can reflect on our lives and ask ourselves if we have the proper character to handle our dreams. By developing our character and trusting in God's plan, we can find peace in the waiting and pursue our dreams when the time is right.
