🔴Sun Live: Faith that Overcomes | Detoxing Negativity | Adoption Healing | WWJD Confusion

Are you ready for breakthrough and empowerment in your mental health and faith? In today's Sunday Live, I bring a strong exhortation from 1 John 5:1-5 about Faith that gets built up when you see yourself as an overcomer. Melissa and I share some of our day to day encounters and experiences, where we continue to learn and grow in our journey and have good laught along the way.

I also share some updates on my book writing project, which will address the subject of Christian perfectionism, while also sharing about more content that will be coming up on trauma. Down the road I will be covering the subject of healing from spiritual abuse as well.

In this episode, we tackle some of the most important and relevant topics for your healing and spiritual growth:

1 John 5:1-5 Bible Study - Faith that overcomes: Building resilience and tenacity in what it means to embrace the call to overcome.

Church culture & denominational differences: Honest conversations about Baptist, Pentecostal, and non-denominational experiences.

Mental health & faith: Real talk on OCD, depression and negativity.

Heart healing & adoption: Finding heart healing in the Father's love and identity when you have been adopted or there is brokenness regarding your birth story.

I also address confusion regarding the idea of What Would Jesus Do and how it can make way for Christian legalism in how we keep trying to give up things to feel closer to God.

ROCD and Codependency confusion: I help a listener through confusion about Relationship OCD and getting entangled in codependency confusion.
