#298: Spill the Beans LIVE with Annie F. Downs and Laura Story [Fresh Grounded Faith Plant City, FL] May 16, 2024

Show notes

Are you an introvert or an extrovert? What do you do to unwind? What's your favorite smell or sound?

These are just a few of the questions we were asked as we sat around the bistro table in Plant City, Florida at a Fresh Grounded Faith event. Author and podcaster Annie F. Downs and singer-songwriter Laura Story were with me, and these women gave so much insight and inspiration when we spilled the beans.

We talked about the importance of hanging out with a small group, how I preserve memories when I can't see pictures, and if you have to be an extrovert to go into ministry. Plus, we were asked about how to deal with disappointment when a deep longing remains unfulfilled, as well as how to show yourself grace when you feel like a failure.

This conversation was deep and wise, encouraging and fun, and it would be even better if you joined us. So pull up your chair at the bistro, and let's spill some beans.

#297: Can I Persevere When I Want to Quit? With Nick Connolly May 09, 2024

Show notes

With each wave of resistance in life, it can be so tempting to simply give up—to quit the calling, to leave the relationship, to walk away from all the dreams God may have placed on your heart.

But according to today's guest, Pastor Nick Connolly, God hasn't let go of you, so you do not want to let go either.

Nick will help you choose persistence in the face of resistance, find renewed energy and faith, and confidently pursue the promise of who God made you to be.

Plus, he'll get real practical about how you can outlast discouragement and discover a resilience you never thought was possible. So, don't give up yet!

Well, if he's on the 4:13, you know the decision he made! But what he did and how he did it will totally bless you and teach you how you can face hard things too.

Show notes

Most of us spend our lives avoiding pain at every turn, so when we do experience it, it can send us into a tailspin. We can begin to question why God even allows it, why He doesn't stop it, and if we can really trust Him in it.

Well, bestselling authors and pastors of Fellowship Church, Ed and Lisa Young, know the kind of pain most of us hope never to experience—the death of a child. And on today's episode, they'll share how they went from sorrow and anger to hope and healing.

This conversation is real, raw, and so incredibly relevant to where we all live as we face pain, regret, and grief.

#293: Can I Trash Expectations and Still Be Happy? With Amanda Held Opelt Apr 11, 2024

Show notes

What does it mean to be blessed? Are Christians automatically entitled to happiness, fulfillment, and perfect peace? Does God's presence guarantee us emotional ease amidst suffering?

Wow! Those are some very interesting questions, aren't they?

Well today, you are about to get far more than interesting answers. You are going to be enlightened and inspired as we talk about our expectations of what a life of faith should feel like when facing difficulties.

Author Amanda Held Opelt joins us and shares her own experience of loss and grief. And, like so many others, she expected her faith to cushion her from the pains of life. But when it didn't, she was left disappointed and disillusioned.

So today, she debunks the myth that if you're struggling, something must be wrong.

She'll explain what the emotional prosperity gospel is, adjust your expectations of how faith shows up in your feelings, and help you reimagine what it really means to be "blessed."

#292: Can I Turn My Setbacks Into Steps Forward? With Dr. Gregory Jantz Apr 04, 2024

Show notes

Most of us grow up thinking failure is bad. And, let's face it, it never feels good! Failure—and all the bad feelings that go with it—are real, like unemployment, bankruptcy, and divorce, just to name a few.

Over time though, we might stop thinking we've failed at something and instead start believing we are failures. But, according to today's guest, failure is never final.

Dr. Gregory Jantz is back on the 4:13 to remind us that God's view of success has more to do with who we are than what we do. He'll not only help you redefine failure, but also give you strategies and paradigm shifters to turn every setback into a stepping stone.

According to a survey, 97% of women have at least one "I hate my body" moments in a day. That's a staggering statistic!

Well, my friend, get ready! Because author and therapist Melissa Johnson is here to expose the lies that fuel those "I hate my body" moments. She'll repair the broken beauty narrative that teaches you to look for the flaws and instead help you see the true, authentic beauty you've always had.
