How do you practice compassion on your past mental health struggles? How do you also deal with people who hold you to the "old you" and the old issues of the past? How do you walk into the new when people around you are holding you to the past? In today's broadcast, I address the following question: "In learning to accept and have compassion on yourself and who you were in your mental illness, how do you maintain that? And how do also have compassion on the fact that others may not have that same compassion on your past?

Do you feel a pressure that works in your prayer life, where you feel a constant guilt about not praying enough or "just right."? Most likely, you are under the influence of religious perfectionism. When it comes to prayer, many believers can be highly influenced approach spiritual routines as perfectionists. We want our prayers to be "just right" in order to see things happen.

When we think of the word “sober,” we often equate it solely with describing a person who has substance abuse issues, specifically alcohol. We think of sobriety only from a view of someone who is not drunk or intoxicated. But from a biblical perspective, there is so much more to what living sober means. Sobriety has a lot to do with being calm, alert, watchful, awake and aware. It is the position we need to maintain as we walk our daily journey and fight through the battles we face. Yet many thought patterns we live in take us out of sobriety on rabbit trails that distract us from what we need to see. Some lose their sobriety by living in denial, avoidance, defensiveness and pride. While others have their sobriety stolen by obsessions, despair, catastrophizing and hopelessness. Today, I want to bring a call of sobriety, so we can see our lives the way we need to see them and take effective steps in our daily battles. I will define biblical sobriety and help you to take it back for your mental, emotional and spiritual effectiveness.

In response to a question that was sent in, I want to address the subject of failure, the fear of failure and what would I say to Moses when He finds out he is not going into the Promised Land? Here is the question: "I wonder if you would be able to address when we are living in seasons of actual failure, as opposed to having a fear of failure in a Q&A? I have been thinking of Moses, who, through his disobedience, was not able to enter the promised land. If he had come to you for counsel, how would you have advised him? I am living in a season, in the culmination of many bad decisions, I feel, because of mental health challenges, but I don’t want to be using this as a cop out, so take full responsibility for them."

One of the questions I get from those who are working through their mental and emotional health is, "How do I stop SPINNING?" What they are describing is continual spiral of thoughts they get lost in, to the point that they feel trapped by the anxiety and even despair the thoughts produce. It can produce catastrophizing, ruminating, unrelenting anxiety and even shame attacks. In this broadcast, I want to share about what I mean when I say "spinning," and how we can apply some healthy steps to our healing and freedom journey.
