    Summer Reset: REPLAY // The Truth About Generational Sin

    You may have heard it said: "Jesus may be in your heart, but grandpa is in your bones." It's a statement that captures something real about family history and its hold on us, but is it actually true? And is it biblical? In this Summer Reset episode of the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle takes on one of the most talked-about and least-understood topics in Christian culture: generational sin. Drawing from personal Bible study, scientific research on epigenetic inheritance, and her own family history, Lisa unpacks what the Bible actually says (and doesn't say) about generational sin, what we have the power to change, and why the blood of Jesus is a stronger force than any family bloodline. Listen in to learn more: The Pete Scazzaro statement Lisa “partly” agrees with What "generational sin" actually means and why the term doesn't appear in the Bible Epigenetic inheritance: the science on stress, trauma, and DNA being passed down The difference between inheriting patterns through proximity and inheriting sin through a bloodstream What we do have the power to change (and what only Jesus can do) Mentioned in the Episode: Bible Study – God Knows by Lisa Whittle: https://www.lisawhittle.com/godknows Book – Good Baggage by Ike Miller: https://ikemiller.com/good-baggage  Episode – Ike Miller on Good Baggage: https://www.lisawhittle.com/joeshow/joe-s10e17  Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Candace Cameron Bure Podcast: Why Can’t I Feel Free in My Body?

    What if the missing piece in every body conversation you've ever had wasn't a new program, a better routine, or the right expert, but a theological foundation you never knew you were missing? In this special Summer Reset episode of the Jesus Over Everything podcast, we're sharing something a little different: a conversation that was so good, we had to bring it here. This is the premiere episode of Season 11 of The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast, where Lisa co-hosted alongside Candace for a full season dedicated to body, soul, and faith. In it, Lisa introduces the concept of whole body theology: a biblical framework that reframes how we see ourselves not as projects to fix, but as whole persons created for God's glory. Both women get vulnerable about their own long and complicated histories with body image and disordered eating, the exhaustion of conflicting health information, and what it actually looks like when the Word of God becomes the foundation, not just another tool in the stack. If you've ever felt exhausted by the endless cycle of health information, or wondered why knowing better has never quite been enough, this conversation is for you. And if this episode resonates, the full season is waiting. Check out all 12 episodes on YouTube! Listen in to learn more: (08:41) Why Candace chose this theme, and the viral moment that started it all (11:36) How Lisa's Body and Soul Bible study came to be  and what it changed for her personally (17:28) Lisa and Candace get vulnerable: their body stories, eating disorder history, and what shame taught them about themselves (25:44) The exhaustion of diet culture, conflicting expert advice, and the needle that never stops moving (31:15) The one kind of rest we're all craving (and why it isn't sleep) (33:55) What is whole body theology? (39:05) The glorious exchange: what Christ's incarnation has to do with how you see your body (40:56) Listener questions: skincare, motivation to move, and practical starting points   Mentioned in the Episode: Bible Study — Body and Soul by Lisa Whittle: https://www.lisawhittle.com/body The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast, Season 11 (full season): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXPIFDUXHLUnAVeI8Frzg-T8zKnExvPL1 Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking Get the Whole Body Guide: https://www.lisawhittle.com/body-tips   Connect with Candace Cameron Bure: Website: https://candacecbure.com Instagram: @candacecbure The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast Website: https://ccbpodcast.com Podcast Instagram: @candacecameronburepodcast Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Self-Care or Self-Obsessed?

    Is self-care selfish or is neglecting yourself the real problem? Continuing the Summer Reset series on the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle tackles one of the most loaded terms in modern culture and offers a distinction that changes everything: it's not whether you practice self-care, it's what the end goal of your self-care actually is. Lisa answers listener questions directly – including her personal take on Botox, lip injections, hair extensions, and eyelash enhancements – before getting to the heart of what she really wants to talk about: four red flags that signal self-care has crossed into self-obsession, and what it looks like when a Jesus follower takes care of herself for the right reasons. Listen in to learn more: Why Lisa's opinions about aging and appearance have shifted since her 30s Listener questions answered: Botox, lip injections, hair extensions, eyelash enhancements: where does Lisa land? The cultural pressure on women to pursue enhancements Why self-care is not a bad word The one question that separates godly self-care from self-obsession Four red flags that self-care has become self-obsession What it looks like to care for yourself in a way that gives you longevity to serve Jesus for the long haul Mentioned in the Episode: Book — Jesus Over Everything by Lisa Whittle: https://www.lisawhittle.com/joe Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Alisa Keeton on Experiencing a Body Revelation

    Continuing the Summer Reset series on resetting your body, this conversation picks up where the last episode left off – not with behavior modification, but with the deeper question underneath it all: How do we actually see ourselves, and where did that story come from? Alisa Keeton has spent 35 years at the intersection of faith and wellness, and what she brings to this conversation isn't a program, it's a framework. Alisa unpacks the way chronic stress rewires the brain, the way childhood shame messages shape our relationship with food, and the way the body was designed not to be worshiped or punished. Lisa brings her own story to the conversation as well, including what God showed her about neglecting the body while serving Him with everything else. If you’re looking for a spiritually grounded, scientifically informed path toward genuine freedom in the body, this episode is for you! Please note: This episode includes discussion of eating disorders and body image. It is not recommended for young or developing children. Listen in to learn more: (02:15) Alisa's vertigo wake-up call: what chronic stress does to the body (07:39) What God has been showing Lisa about years of neglecting her body for ministry (09:32) Why body, mind, and spirit can't be compartmentalized  (10:40) The neuroscience of chronic stress and what it means for your faith (26:15) The price the next generation is watching us pay (31:25) Childhood shame and food: how innocent messages become lifelong patterns (35:42) How to “break up” with what you think your body should look like (40:52) Alisa's last word: your body is for ability, not vanity Mentioned in the Episode: Book — The Body Revelation by Alisa Keeton: https://www.revelationwellness.org/TBR/ Revelation Wellness (programs + community): https://www.revelationwellness.org Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking Connect with Alisa Keeton: Website: https://alisakeeton.com Revelation Wellness Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/revelationwellness Revelation Wellness Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/revelationwell Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Breaking Up with Disordered Eating

    What do you see when you look in the mirror, and what story have you been telling yourself about your body? Continuing the Summer Reset series on the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle steps into one of the most personal conversations she has ever had on the show, drawing from her own experience with disordered eating to offer a spiritual perspective on what it means to pursue genuine freedom in the body. Speaking not as a clinician but as a Bible teacher, Lisa identifies two specific ways we stay stuck, and the one question from John 5 that cuts to the heart of it all.  Please note: this episode contains a trigger warning for eating disorder content, including specific discussion of behaviors. It is not recommended for young or developing children. Listen in to learn more: A song called "Skinny," and why it stopped Lisa in her tracks What disordered eating actually is and why so many are quietly living with the lie of it Breaking up with the lie of disordered eating Breaking up with exchanging one unhealthy habit for another John 5 and the life-changing question Jesus asks Why freedom starts with telling the full truth to yourself and to someone else A word for anyone who feels too far gone Mentioned in the Episode: Song — Skinny by Emmy Russell: https://youtu.be/QGCmjl8k6TE?si=BiRBv7mxk3delZuV Book — The Hard Good: https://www.lisawhittle.com/good Book — Jesus Over Everything: https://www.lisawhittle.com/joe Book — God Knows: https://www.lisawhittle.com/godknows Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Lee Strobel on the Question: "Is God Real?"

    Is God real? According to Lee Strobel, that question is Googled more than 200 times per second, making it one of the most pressing questions of our time. In this Summer Reset episode of the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle sits down with atheist-turned-teaching-pastor and New York Times bestselling author, Lee Strobel, for a conversation rooted in his book, Is God Real?  Strobel shares his own journey from unbelief to faith, tackles the question of suffering head-on, and addresses how to talk with children or teens who are walking away from faith. Intellectual honesty and genuine belief are not enemies, so if you’ve ever been asked the question, “Is God Real?” – by a teenager, a spouse, a friend, or your own heart – you’ll want this episode in your back pocket.   Listen in to learn more: Is God real? Why this question matters more now than ever Lee’s story: from atheism to faith through honest investigation How a simple prayer changed everything If God is real, why is there suffering? Is it okay (or even biblical) to question God? How to talk with a child or teenager who no longer believes What the evidence actually shows about the existence of God A word for the believer who quietly wrestles with doubt   Mentioned in the Episode: Book - Is God Real? by Lee Strobel: https://a.co/d/08flb4f5 Book - The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel: https://a.co/d/00Kp1JMq Invite Lisa to Speak: https://www.lisawhittle.com/speaking   Connect with Lee Strobel: Website: https://leestrobel.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lee_strobel/ X: https://x.com/leestrobel Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LeeStrobel/ Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Cliques, Popularity, and Playing Church

    What was the Acts 2 church meant to be? And how far have we drifted from it? Continuing the Summer Reset series on the Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle tackles a topic her own audience asked her to address: cliques, popularity dynamics, and comfortable social circles that quietly take root in the very place designed to be their opposite. Drawing on real messages from listeners, teachings from top theologians, and a challenge rooted in Matthew 28, Lisa makes the case that playing church – surrounding ourselves with people who look, act, and think just like us – is more than a social problem. It's a spiritual one. This is a conversation for anyone who's ever felt the gap between what the church is supposed to be and what it sometimes is, and wants to close it. Listen in to learn more: Why Lisa almost didn't make this episode and what changed her mind The listener's message about cliques in women's ministry that started it all What the Acts 2 church was actually designed to be (and what it was never meant to be) How our social patterns have replaced the mission of the church Why cliques have no place in a community called to unity The connection between comfortable Christianity and a lazy faith What is really at risk when we miss the person sitting alone A hard question: Are we living for Jesus or for popularity and comfort?

    Summer Reset: REPLAY // Dr. George Barna on Championing the Next Generation

    Continuing our Summer Reset series on the Jesus Over Everything show, this conversation between Lisa Whittle and renowned researcher and author Dr. George Barna focuses on a foundational question: What does it mean to have a biblical worldview, and what’s at stake if we fail to pass one on to the next generation?   The data Dr. George Barna brings to this episode is the kind that should wake every believer up. A biblical worldview isn't formed by accident: it’s built in homes, modeled in churches, and lived out in the daily rhythms of faithful adults. The next generation is watching. The question is: what are they seeing?   Listen in to learn more: (00:24) Dr. Barna gets honest about nerves, aging, and why he still says yes to interviews (04:24) Why millions of Christ followers have walked away from Sunday mornings (08:04) How a 40-year researcher processes hope and despair in the data (13:54) Only 4% of American adults and just 1% of teens have a biblical worldview (14:36) Why a child’s worldview is substantially formed by age 13 (16:42) Barna’s simple definition of a biblical worldview (20:58) Is skipping church a sign of lost faith, or just doing faith differently? (31:22) Only 37% of pastors have a biblical worldview, and what that reveals about seminary (35:31) Barna’s unfiltered take on social media and discipleship (36:09) Introducing the “seven cornerstones of a biblical worldview”   Mentioned in the Episode: Book - Revolution by Dr. George Barna: https://a.co/d/0iHdx2rZ Book - Raising Spiritual Champions by Dr. George Barna: https://a.co/d/05O2sSOV Latest Reports - Cultural Research Center at ACU: https://azcu.edu/culturalresearchcenter/   Connect with Dr. George Barna: Website: https://georgebarna.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drgeorgebarna/ Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.lisawhittle.com Substack: https://letsbeclear.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lisawhittleofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisawhittle Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisawhittleofficial
