Trade a Lie for a Truth — Christianity
Trade a Lie for a Truth

Did God *really* say He’d use all things for His glory + your good? Doesn’t look that good to me…
Did He *really* say peace is possible? I wouldn’t hold your breath…
Did God *really* say He’d never leave you? Well then… where is He?
And did God *really* say He’d give you rest? Because (no offense) you look pretty tired + defeated to me…

Bottom line: Our enemy is out to kill our peace, destroy our faith, and steal our hope. How? By planting lies in our minds in hopes we take the bait.

Good news for us though: Jesus came to set us free, and ”if we abide in His Word, we’ll know the truth + the truth will set us free” (John 8:32).This is the show for you if you’re ready to pick up the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, and stand firm in the truth, defusing every fiery dart and seizing that abundant life Jesus always gives.

Join host Heidi Lee Anderson, popular social media creator and author of P.S. It’s Gonna Be Good, episode by episode as we Trade a Lie for a Truth.

The Real Purpose of Marriage: Happy or Something Better? (with Ryan + Allie Lundeen @proverbsthirtyonegirl) Sep 08, 2025

Show notes

Marriage is supposed to make us happy, right? I mean, that's what we've been sold: the perfect spouse, the fairytale wedding, the happily ever after. It sounds good, right? But what happens when life doesn't follow the script? When your spouse disappoints you, says things that kind of make you mad, or just doesn't complete you like rom-coms promise?

Suddenly that belief that marriage is here to make us happy, it starts to feel less like a dream and more like a setup... a setup for bitterness, for disappointment, maybe even walking away. So today we are trading that lie for a truth that is harder, but it is better because what if marriage wasn't meant to complete you, but to grow you, to make you more like Christ?

Join my husband and me as we chat with Ryan and Allie Lundeen @proverbsthirtyonegirl for an exclusive true confessions interview talking about how God confirmed “this is who you're gonna marry,” counter-cultural ideas of marriage, and personal stories we didn't even know we'd share.😂

I Feel Defeated vs. I am Victorious in Christ (with Heidi Lee Anderson) Sep 08, 2025

Show notes

Ever feel like life just keeps knocking you down? No matter how hard you fight, no matter how much you pray, you just can’t seem to win? Have you ever wondered why the battles feel so constant, or caught yourself thinking, ‘I’ll never get past this struggle’? Maybe you’ve questioned if you’ll ever feel strong or free again.

But what if defeat isn’t your story at all? What if it’s just the enemy’s script—and God has already written a different one? Today, we’re trading the lie of ‘I feel defeated’ for the truth: ‘I am victorious in Christ.’

Join me in this episode of my podcast Trade a Lie for a Truth, as I open up about my personal journey as a cancer survivor and emphasize the importance of recognizing our giants against the scope of our great God. Ultimately, I talk about how God helped me overcome this giant of fear and ultimately, why He allows trials in the first place. Together, let’s actively seize the abundant life promised in Christ and move forward in His victory.

Takeaways:

Life can feel overwhelming, but as Christians, defeat isn't our story.
We think thousands of thoughts daily, many are negative, but we can trade them for the truth.
Every trial is a test of faith, set up for our victory.
God's promises are fulfilled in Christ, and it’s time to live in them.
We cannot wait for problems to disappear to find happiness. Jesus offers the free, abundant life in Him today.
Possession of God's promises requires action and faith.

I Can Do It All vs. I Can’t (and Shouldn’t) Do It All with Heidi Lee Anderson May 20, 2024

Show notes

Ever tried juggling all the things?

Work, mom life, extracurricular activities? Clean house, toned body, healthy meals? Volunteering at church, keeping up with the yard, staying on top of emails, meeting up with friends, and organizing the toys? Not to mention, reading your Bible and being a loving, attentive wife?

Join me as I pull back the curtain of my life and share a behind-the-scenes look into what God is actively teaching me and I believe has for me in this next season ahead. While it’s tempting to want to do it all, the truth is freeing: we are limited human beings with time constraints and physical limitations, so we can’t do it all—and even better… we shouldn’t do it all.

In the end, we can trade that crippling lie (you can do it all) for the truth: There are some things in this season that need our focus, so there are some things in this season we can step away from.

Sit in Ecclesiastes 3 with me, and together, let’s ask God and find out for ourselves what should be our top priority in this current season of life.

God Won't Give You More Than You Can Handle vs. What He Can Handle with Elle Cardell, Daughter of Delight May 13, 2024

Show notes

Have you ever heard someone say, "God won't give you more than you can handle"?

But then life happens, and you do face more than you can handle. There's a diagnosis that's far bigger than you. Bills that seem insurmountable. Your child’s challenges that are far out of your control. The strains in your marriage, well… it's all requiring a lot more from you than you feel like you have left in you.

Today, we're going to talk to someone who gets it. Elle Cardell, founder of Delight of Delight, is going to share more about her story and help us trade this lie for the freeing truth.

God may give you more than you handle—but it’s never more than He can.

All Religions Point to the Same God vs. There's Only One True God, with Pastor Jason Carlson May 06, 2024

Show notes

A Jehovah’s Witness knocks at the door, reciting Bible verses.

A Mormon posts on social media, talking about the grace of God and following Jesus.

A Muslim prays… do all religions really lead to the same God?

And what about atheists and the God they disbelieve in?

Join me as I interview one of the nation’s leading apologists, Pastor Jason Carlson, as he tackles the lie, “All religions point to the same God.” Not only will we learn about the key polar differences in each religion, but we’ll also get valuable conversation tips as we interact with nonbelievers and hear about the most convincing piece of evidence that the God of Christianity is the one true God.

In the end, let’s trade this lie for the truth: Jesus is God, and He’s the only Way, the Truth, and the Life.

I Don't Belong vs. I Belong in Christ + the Church, with Caroline Saunders Apr 29, 2024

Show notes

Ever felt like you don't belong?

Maybe it’s because you homeschool and everyone else sends their kid to public. Or you moved, and while everyone else has their people, you have to start fresh with all strangers. Or maybe it’s in your job—you’re a Christian and everyone else… let’s just say doesn’t show the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

Whatever it may be, we’ve got to tackle this lie, because because God has gone to great lengths to give you a place of belonging.

Join me as I interview my friend Caroline Saunders, author of her latest Bible Study Come Home as we trade this lie "I don't belong" for the truth "I belong in Christ and in the Church."

Conflict is Always Warring vs. Conflict Can be Peaceful, with Donna Jones Apr 22, 2024

Show notes

Conflict and peace... they seem like polar opposites, right? You certainly can’t have one with the other…

Or can you?

Join me as I interview Donna Jones, author of Healthy Conflict, Peaceful Life, as we open up the Bible, hear what God has to say on the matter, and discuss the practical steps clearly laid out for us in places like James and Ephesians. Not only will we realize how peace can still reign, but Donna shares conflict prevention tips, anger management tools when you’re caught up in the heat of it all, and lastly, the best step to take if you want to move a tumultuous relationship towards peace and health today.

In the end, let’s trade this lie for the truth: Conflict can be peaceful and healthy if I follow Jesus and the path laid out in His Word.

Joy Comes When Life is Perfect vs. Joy is Yours Today, with Hannah Crews @hannahcrews.blog Apr 15, 2024

Show notes

Ever thought, “Once I can get past this, I’ll have joy again”?

Here’s the deal: While happiness is based on circumstances, joy comes from something—er, rather, someone—completely different. Once we understand what it is and learn from the Bible how to get it, then we can live with joy TODAY.

Join me as I interview Hannah Crews, popular social media content creator @hannahcrews.blog and author of the Goodness Gracious devotional, to hear her story, talk about Bible characters who get it, and move forward in the path God has for us to receive joy.

In the end, let’s trade this lie that “joy comes when life is perfect” for the truth that “life will never be perfect, but since a fruit of the Spirit is joy, I can have it today.”

I Could Never vs. I Can Through Christ, with Katie Klein @littlehouselearningco Apr 08, 2024

Show notes

Have you ever thought, “I could never do that”?

I could never be a SAHM.

I could never start my own business.

I could never go back to school or try a different career.

Today, we’re talking to someone who originally thought, I could never homeschool,” but now finds herself at home, educating her 3 kids, and would never trade it for the world.

How did she get there? And how can we get to that place of confidence too?

Join me and Katie Klein, popular content creator at Little House Learning Co., as we talk about a Bible character who gets it, pull truths from his story to apply to ours, and find out how to move forward in the plan and purpose God has for us.

In the end, let’s trade the lie that "I could never ________" for the truth that "I can do what I am called to, by Christ who equips me" (Hebrew 13:21).

I Can't Have REAL Friends vs. I'm Made for Community with Pastors' Wives Tell All Apr 01, 2024

Show notes

Have you ever felt like, “I can’t have real friends”?

It’s not as easy as it was when we were in grade school; no, now making adult friends is hard. Let alone, making real adult friends.

Today, we’re talking to 3 women who not only get it, the Pastors’ Wives Tell All trio, but they give practical help, examples, and encouragement to find those friends we’re so desperately looking for.

In the end, let’s trade this lie for the truth: I’m created for real friends, God is for community, and ultimately, Jesus is my forever Friend.
