Talk Therapy: Worship Restored
May 15, 2023 08:00 - 15 minutes - 23.8 MBThis week our theme is Worship Restored from chapter 10 of my book, Image Restored. This chapter is about idols, but I don’t think God wants to restore our idols. In fact, He wants to demolish them so worship can be restored. We are designed to worship, the question is to what or who are we worshipping? God detests anything that comes between Him and us. The temple falls when idols enter because we turn our hearts away from the Lord and worship a god that can never meet our deepest needs...

This week our theme is emotions restored from chapter 8 of my book, Image Restored. In this chapter, we discussed how emotions have a way of letting us know what’s happening in our hearts if we will stop long enough to listen.

In this chapter, we discussed how trauma affects our body image. It was never God’s original design for His children to suffer the level of pain we endure today. That’s exactly why He sent Jesus to bear our pain and shame on the cross. One thing I know for certain is that pain and suffering leave a mark on our hearts. But it doesn’t have to get t...
Talk Therapy: Family Restored
April 10, 2023 08:00 - 14 minutes - 22.4 MBSo far in the Restored Series we have covered truth, temple, union, and hope. This week our theme is family from chapter 5 of the book.

The title of this chapter is “Structural Stories.” Here we discussed stories that have shaped our core beliefs and how we view ourselves and the world.

Talk Therapy: You Are Secure
November 28, 2022 09:00 - 15 minutes - 24.4 MBThis month we aren’t in a specific series. Instead, I feel the Lord directing me to share what He puts on my heart for the week. Today’s word is “you are secure.” Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is as follows: physiological needs, safety, love, belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. Security is a basic need of all humans, especially women. As a Christian counselor, I see many women, myself included, who do not doubt our salvation, but we doubt our worth. We sing the song, “I am a child o...

Today’s word is “I Choose Joy”. As counterintuitive as it sounds, joy is not determined by our circumstances. Joy is a choice. It's a choice to be joyful despite our circumstances. When we look at the scripture, joy is a fruit of the spirit. It's what separates us as believers in Christ and draws people to Him. On the surface, joy might seem like it's about your ...

November 07, 2022 08:00 - 10 minutes - 17.4 MBThis month we aren’t in a specific series. Instead, I feel the Lord directing me to share what He puts on my heart for the week. Today’s word is “persistent prayer.” 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says, “never stop praying.” (NLT) other translations say, “pray without ceasing.” Something happens when we pray. What have you grown weary in praying for? The salvation of a loved one? Healing in your body? Restoration of a relationship? Marriage reconciliation? Financial breakthrough? Freedom from bo...
