    197. False Prophets and Psychological Control with Dr. Mark Chironna

    Have you experienced false prophesy and psychological damage from it? Have you had a leader in your church demand that you listen to them even though their character was tainted? In this revelatory episode, you will hear the brilliant Dr. Mark Chironna talk about the biblical intention of prophesy and how we have gravitated towards trinket show prophesy instead of Jesus. He talks about the shift in the church of egos wanting to be praised instead of seeking the real savior in Jesus Christ. We all have aspects of our psyche like memory, imagination, intuition, will, cognition and this is part of being a human being. We are subjective and have opinions, distortions and biases. We need accountability in the prophetic. We need to focus on character, the fruit of the spirit and self-awareness. If we lose the perspective of the nature of the God-head and worship is about what feels good. We need to fall in love with Jesus and see the beauty of prophesy through Him. “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.” ~Matthew 7:15 “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts.” ~Isaiah 6:5 “The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.” ~1 Corinthians 14:32 Mark’s website: https://www.markchironna.com/ Purchase Rising with Hope: A 30-Day Devotional for Overcoming Anxiety and Depression: https://www.amazon.com/Rising-Hope-Devotional-Overcoming-Depression/dp/0800772938?crid=19W5TVKQ8IXR1&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WN4nghQqMRwmu5t77s2Tiw.3dxZNH9LRRG4qqFzXJM8huczWt9FGaPVxSsz0iEu6UU&dib_tag=se&keywords=rising+with+hope+mark+chironna&qid=1730655540&sprefix=mark+chironn%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-1 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    196. The Satanic Church to Jesus Encounter with Riaan Swiegelaar

    Riaann Swiegelaar was one of the founders of the Satanic Church of South Africa and was radically transformed by the love of Jesus. In the middle of a sacrifice, Jesus came into the room. He shares his powerful testimony of transformation through real love. Riaann is candid and talks about how we, as Christians need to trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to transformation people, instead of controlling them. We need to understand the battle that is around us instead of ignoring it and looking the other way. Many Christians aren’t aware of the spiritual world and think that going to a psychic or using healing rocks is okay. There is a real battle out there! You will be encouraged to grow in confidence as you hear Riaan share his testimony and wisdom with what God is showing him now. “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” ~Matthew 6:33 Riaan’s website: www.deliverance4me.org Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/riaan_swiegelaar?igsh=eG5sNTE2dGE0bTUw Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    193. Impossible to Possible Relationships

    When the trauma and pain others have that they aren’t deal with affects us, it gets really hard. We want to just check out or leave or not continue that relationship. This is how divorce and broken families happens. But what about what God can do? How do we allow God to move in dry and hard ground where there isn’t permission by the person? For example, a spouse who is not a believer and continues to struggle with addiction, abusive language and heart towards others? People may or not be aware of the harm they are causing. Some of the harm may be name calling, belittling, impatience, passive aggressiveness, gaslighting, ignoring, and more. In this episode, you will hear how God can bring us and our loved ones into awareness of that which we are avoiding or unaware of. He is the God of the impossible. And that what we don’t love, we won’t have authority over. “Jesus said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.’” Matthew 28:18 “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” ~Ephesians 6:12 “Under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart.” ~Psalms 91:4 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com Purchase the book The Brave Encourager: https://www.amazon.com/Brave-Encourager-Power-Encouragement-Changes/dp/B09TN45H36/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3HGP5FPY2E5GD&keywords=the+brave+encourager&qid=1646608516&sprefix=the+brave+encourager%2Caps%2C223&sr=8-1 Join my mailing list: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/t5u2y5 If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    192. Don’t Stop in Defeat with Tyler Feller

    Have you felt hardships holding you back to move forward? Are you wanting to move forward with what God has for you? God isn’t a cosmic coke machine! Too many of us settle for the mediocre when God desires for us to live a life greater than we could ever imagine. Pastor Tyler Feller shares his childhood story of being inspired by a teacher mistakenly calling him “preacher”, and his love of God brought him to learn the Truths of God’s kingdom. This interview is engaging and inspiring. You will hear Tyler talk about how we need to honor people where they could become, get on God’s frequency, experience thrills of victory in the midst of defeat, and get away from co-dependency of the “thing” instead of God. We have spiritual blind spots and we need to be with people we can be vulnerable with so they can come out. God hasn’t given up on you or the dream He has placed in your heart. You shouldn’t either. Tyler wrote a book called “Don’t Stop” along with is 365 motivating devotions. If you are looking for encouragement, this interview is for you! “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.” ~Ephesians 3:20 Tyler’s Website: www.tylerfeller.com Purchase the book and devotion Don’t Stop: https://www.amazon.com/Dont-Stop-Failures-Struggles-Opportunities/dp/1424567246?psc=1&pd_rd_w=8bbzL&content-id=amzn1.sym.ea1d9533-fbb7-4608-bb6f-bfdceb6f6336&pf_rd_p=ea1d9533-fbb7-4608-bb6f-bfdceb6f6336&pf_rd_r=ZNQA4W1QJMKWH5WG70ZB&pd_rd_wg=lcxGc&pd_rd_r=1484bc4c-c1ac-4364-ad48-a94e1e28b417&ref_=sspa_dk_detail_1 Devotion: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1424567262?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_SXSNWXJCZ1S6Q4KWDGWC&skipTwisterOG=1 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    191. It Starts in the Heart | Mark 7

    Do you feel like you have big emotions and can’t control them? Or you have people around you who continue to have big emotions and make unhealthy choices with them? We can speak all you we but if our heart is impure and defiled, what comes out of it won’t be good. We can get stuck in bitterness, fear, anger or unforgiveness and have spiritual blindness that we don’t want. The fruit that grows is more important that what is said. Jesus wants us to live with joy, vitality, peace and with a pure and holy heart. Hear this inspiring episode about Mark 7 and how our hearts have more impact on the fruit in our life. “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.” Luke 6:45 “‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.’ You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.” ~Mark 7:6-8 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com Purchase the book The Brave Encourager: https://www.amazon.com/Brave-Encourager-Power-Encouragement-Changes/dp/B09TN45H36/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3HGP5FPY2E5GD&keywords=the+brave+encourager&qid=1646608516&sprefix=the+brave+encourager%2Caps%2C223&sr=8-1 Join my mailing list: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/t5u2y5 If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.
