Ep. 23-“Beautifully Made” Ryann Gaines (Faith Mamas-Pt. 3)

July 3, 2020 lfhpodcast

Beautifully made. We hear that. Many of us know that.  But just repeating that doesn’t get us there in our thinking and in our self-talk.  Ryann shares with us her story of getting there, to a place where she knows she is soooo loved by her heavenly Father, and uniquely beautiful in His sight.
 On her journey of getting there, she walked through a difficult season, including postpartum depression, suicidal thoughts and unhealthy feelings of unworthiness. Her loving family and friends walked her through that  season, and she has come out on the other side. As we hear her gentle spirit and faith inviting us into her life, I pray we also get to that place of knowing we too are beautifully made.

Let’s face it. Most of us struggle with worrying about what other people think, and keeping up a good image. Sometimes though, left unchecked, it can lead to a hard path, and hidden choices. Jernise walks us from her happy childhood through her conflicted and transformational thirties…with choices she never thought she would make, and trials she never thought she would face. Her loving God gently transformed her, from the inside out, and kept her, all along the way. And today, she stands strong, in her own shoes, with her little daughter hand-in-hand.

May 22, 2020 lfhpodcast

What comes to mind when u picture people in the Bible? Archaic, unrelatable stories? perfection beyond reach? When u take a look at the characters in the Bible and emerse yourself in their story, and read all of the details, you see people. People like us. Flawed. Headstrong. Humble. Caring. Awful. Saved.  Transformed. People.  
In episodes 11-19, we asked the question “What character in the Bible do you most admire or relate to?”  Here is an audio collage of the answer to that question. Praying that we all find a new joy, as we revisit the characters in the Bible that we sometimes misunderstand.
