Isn’t Christianity supposed to look leaps and bounds different from any other religion? Why do so many of us look the same as every other religion? The Apostle Paul said that we are to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. In this energizing episode, you will be encouraged to hear Luke Palasz share is testimony of knowing and walking in the simplicity of the gospel every day. He has seen thousands of people be healed by Jesus and believes this is normal Christianity. He wrote a book called “From Striving to Thriving” because he used to strive and feel pressure to do religious duties. He no longer operates from this place because of the significant revelation he received about his identity in Christ.
“In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.” ~Acts 2:17

Do you think your mental health diagnosis is helping or hurting you? Has your mental health diagnosis controlled your life? We can get controlled by our circumstances instead of God, and our diagnosis can be one of them. Sometimes people in the church ignore symptoms in the name of healing and sometimes people outside the church focus on their diagnosis too much. We need balance and we need God’s truth for our situation. I will talk about some controversial topics around a diagnosis and how it can help us and how it can hurt us.
Galatians 5:1 – “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”

He felt led to write a book and titled it “Salt, Light and Kids” and he is sharing what God showed him in this incredible journey.
“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” ~Matthew 5:13

Do you struggle with managing your emotions? Do you think we have a choice with our feelings? In this episode, you will hear about how to be more skillful with your emotions. You will find out what good emotions are and their purpose. Also there will be very helpful and specific skills and handling emotions.
This is a 3rd of a series called DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) series – the 1st one was Interpersonal effectiveness and the 2nd was distress tolerance. Let me explain the difference with skills verses deep trauma work. When your house is on fire and you are struggling, you are not thinking about healing at that time, you just need to make a good choice in a difficult moment. Today’s episode is on skills to manage difficult emotions when they show up.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” ~Matthew 11:28-30

Do you ever wonder what your dreams mean? Is God speaking to us in our dreams? Many of us have no clue what our dreams mean or even realize that God could be speaking to us. Hear this incredible interview with pastor, author and speaker Demontae Edmonds. As a child, he had dark and demonic experiences in his sleep and wasn’t sure what to do with them at the time. There was a significant calling on his life – perhaps this could be you or your children. This podcast will dive into the deep meaning of dreams whether it’s from our soul, God or the enemy. Dreams with recurring themes, scenery, or messages often are the by-product of unresolved soul trauma. This means that God helps us with our mental health as we sleep.We need to pay attention to what our dreams are saying and do something about them. You will gain a better of sense of what your dreams are telling you and encouragement to take steps about them.
“In the second year of his reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; his mind was troubled and he could not sleep.” ~Daniel 2:1
“The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and its interpretation is trustworthy.” ~Daniel 2:45b

Have you found yourself in crisis situations over and over? Does it feel like you can’t catch a break? Sometimes we just need some quick and basic skills to help be effective when we are in a stressful situation. In this episode, you will hear some basic Distress Tolerance skills taken from DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy). This is a curriculum that was developed by Marsha Linehan. Distress Tolerance skills are about not making a bad situation worse. Many people have remastered these skills and people do these groups all over the world. They are structured and to the point of teaching skills, not diving into healing trauma. Some of the skills you will hear today about improving the moment, self-soothing and distracting. Normally my podcasts talk about trauma, but this episode is simply about skills.
“For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” ~2 Timothy 1:7

Are you controlling your destiny over God? Are you wanting to overthrow past mindsets and get unstuck? We need to have honest and difficult conversations with God but we often stay comfortable with the safety net of our hurt and pain. There are dreams and goals we all have but often don’t get there because we are victimized by our mindset and limitations. Teresa is a speaker and growth coach who shares her powerful testimony of getting uncomfortable with brutal honesty. Until we address the boulders of our life, it is hard for us to move forward. God met her at her kitchen table with a cup of coffee. These boulders were impacting her relationship with her family, friends and the people around her. She had to answer, is she going to stop there or move forward with God? She helps others have these honest conversations with God and helps us in this podcast interview to get unstuck ourselves. We need to find the joy of what is ahead instead of the fear. Our job is to say YES to God today and trust God with the outcome.
“But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” ~Matthew 19:26

Do you think your partner might struggle with Christian narcissism? Have others told you that you that you maybe be in an emotionally abusive relationship? Christians often don’t truly know what real hypocrisy is, and we just throw this word around, along with the narcissist diagnosis. In this episode, you will hear a deep conversation about a tough topic with pastor and author Jake Kail. Jake knows a thing or two about deliverance, hypocrisy, and religious narcissism. Jake shares things that there’s a difference between a moral failure than someone who has been living in hypocrisy. Also, we talk about the divorce crisis and not the abuse crisis. This episode is a bit sensitive in nature and the discussion is an important one that the church cannot avoid.
“Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.” ~Matthew 10:16

Are you worried about the mental health crisis in your community? We know we are saved when we give our lives to Jesus, but we may continue to struggle. We have depression, anxiety, relationship issues, eating disorders, addictions, emotional issues and many more. Why do we continue to battle as Christians? In this episode, I will dive into the statistics with mental health and the power of the gospel. We need to do better as a church instead of it always be outside of the church. I still see people in churches not talk about mental health. Or if they do, they just refer out to a counselor. They aren’t dealing with deliverance or inner healing, they just believe you can take a pill for depression. We need to level up and understand that Jesus has authority over all things. Not just some things. ALL things.
~Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure. ~ Philippians 2:12–13

Are you struggling in your marriage? Do you feel like you continue to get offended at your spouse? For Brad and Marilyn, the honeymoon was over before the honeymoon was over. They both found themselves disillusioned and disappointed. So many of us live in a performance based marriage and focus on what we do or our spouse does. We also live too much on the surface and keep score. We need to shift from an offense mentality to a grace and help mentality. Grace and love make better change agents than pressure and consequence. Hear this powerful testimony and beautiful insight and wisdom from the Bible to bring grace into your marriage.
“For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.” ~Romans 6:14
“For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.” ~James 2:3

Have you felt discouraged lately? Do you have circumstances and people in your life that have drained you and brought you down? We can get so discouraged by the situations that don’t go our way, and it can be hard to see God’s perspective. Sometimes we just need a little boost, a re-focus and shift to bring us back to the plumbline of Jesus Christ. In this episode you will be encouraged yourself. Heidi goes through some of the teachings from her book The Brave Encourager and speaks life into the listener for themselves and others. You will hear examples and ways to speak life instead of death for the purpose of encouragement and bringing the Kingdom of God here on earth. We have a real enemy who tries to twist our conversations to where we believe the lie is the truth.
“The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” ~Proverbs 18:21
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up as you have been doing. ~1 Thess 5:11

Do you have a child that has gotten far from God? Have you been praying for your prodigal son or daughter and are losing hope? This episode will give you hope! Jolene feist grew up in a Christian home but was in rebellion for 10 years. She felt it was easier for her to “fit in” than to be set apart with Christ. This led her to struggle with anxiety, depression, lust, suicidal thoughts and panic attacks. She eventually let Jesus in but continued to live as a lukewarm Christian. We have to respond and fully surrender to God, not live with one foot in and one foot out. We have a choice to continue to live in shame or to fully surrender to God. Be encouraged as you hear Jolene’s powerful story of real surrender and freedom in Christ.

Do you wonder if you should get counseling, life coaching, deliverance or inner healing? Is there a line between ministry and counseling? Can counselors and people in ministry do the same thing? In this episode, you will hear about the difference between mental health counseling, life coaching, inner healing and deliverance. You will hear specifics about which one to pursue and when. Sometimes we want to make referrals and you aren’t quite sure which one to make a referral to. Whether we are in a personal or professional setting, it is good to know some of the things to look for to know when and where to refer to for counseling, deliverance or inner healing. Are they Biblical and which one is for you? You will also be encouraged with prayer and ministry to seek and get the right help that you need, if that is what you are needing.

Have you felt like you have had shameful secrets that you kept hidden from everyone? Beyond the lights and the camera, Melissa Huray spent her nights in darkness blacking out in bars and was spiraling. What started as an escape from her oppressive childhood had become a crippling addiction to alcohol. She kept the secret hidden for 15 years. Along with alcohol, Melissa also would seek men for love, struggled with anxiety and panic attacks and food obsession. God was always seeking her out through people and circumstances. She finally realized that it wasn’t a “what” that could save her, but “Who” and that was Jesus. Melissa is currently the Executive Director of the Lindell Recovery Network and host of The Hope Report. She has written the book “Blackout to Blessings”, which is a thrilling and captivating story of the details of her painful life of drunken’ blackouts to eventual salvation in Jesus Christ. Be encouraged as you hear God’s redemption in this powerful testimony of recovery.

As a Marine healed of PTSD and a burned out youth pastor, Jared is an example of someone who would not be on fire for God. But he is!! He says it’s because of the baptism of the Holy Spirit. He wrote a book about it and has a podcast called Adventures in the Spirit. Jared grew up in a Cessationist church and started to have prophetic dreams and experiences that he knew was God. Jared talks about the importance and power of the Holy Spirit and the gifts that God intends for us to walk in. He also talks about what Cessationism is and interpretation around the verses in the Bible about this. Our capacity is limitless but this only happens when we surrender. You will be inspired by Jared’s absolute love for God and his gift of teaching. As Jared says, “Life is brutal, but God is good!”
“I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.” ~Matthew 3:11

Has 2023 been a tough year for you? Are you currently in transition? I feel like many of us are in some sort of transition from the end of 2023 to the beginning of 2024. IN this episode, you will hear candidate raw vulnerability of a desire to seek God’s face only when there is a lot going on. As a podcast host I am personally going through a lot of transition myself and I’d like to share how you can gain God’s insight through whatever you are going through. Hear some prophetic encouraging words for 2024 that will help put you right in God’s heart and get more clear perspective.
You have said, “Seek my face.” My heart says to you, “Your face, Lord, do I seek.” ~Psalm 27:8

Have you ever felt like God has abandoned you? Have you difficult circumstances or loss causes you to question God? Candy and her husband experienced a stillbirth of their first-born named Grace. At the time she didn’t feel like she received enough support and resources so she started the non-profit called Missing Grace Foundation. She also co-authored the book Holding on to Love After You’ve Lost a Baby with Dr. Gary Chapman. She is a sought after speaker, author and advocate for families who are grieving a baby or child. She share her intimate experience with finding God and the shake up her faith experienced when she lost her child. She is brutally honest with the idea she had skipped the part where the Bible says “we will have trials and tribulations”. She believed that God had abandoned her. So much so that she didn’t go to church for 3 years. Candy shares how patient God was with her in the wrestling. God in His mercy cannot interfere with free will and that there is recompense in the Kingdom of God. Be encouraged in this powerful episode about grief, loss, pain, hope and faith.
“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” ~John 16:33
