You're Worth More Than You Know: A Conversation About Identity in Christ with Laney Rene Feb 13, 2024

Show notes

Who am I? Everyone is asking this question. Is our identity in our occupation, education, relationship status, or even failures? Laney Rene - wife, mom, worship leader, and author - is here to talk about this because she has lived this. This is a sweet and compassionate conversation for those who are struggling with changes in life and seasons that lead us to question who we are, what we were made for, and the goodness of God. Tune in as we talk about how to live secure vs. insecure, the difference between our vocation and identity, and how to fully embrace the beauty of being a Daughter of God first.

What Is "Deconstruction" and How Is It Dangerous To Our Faith? with Alisa Childers Feb 06, 2024

Show notes

There's a sweeping movement of "deconstruction" moving through our world and churches. People are leaving the church, deconstructing their faith, and dismantling everything they once believed. It's affected ex-Christian singers, ex-pastors, and celebrities alike. Maybe even your loved ones. Alisa Childers, author, podcaster, and apologist, is back on the podcast to explain what "deconstruction is", how it's not as innocent as it sounds, how to stand our ground in truth and in Scripture with confidence, and PRACTICAL WAYS help your loved ones if they're struggling with this. We answer questions like, "What if I'm doubting or questioning God? Does that mean I'm deconstructing? Is doubt bad?", as well as some bonus content on apologetics and how to trust God's Word.

Here's What You CAN Control: Show Up For the Life God's Given You Jan 02, 2024
