Sprouting against self-doubt
Are you a self-doubter? Some level of self-doubt is healthy . However, chronic self-doubt can rob you of seeing the abilities you possess. Many of the people God used to accomplish great things started out as real doubters. Watch the account of Moses. A man who had a divine encounter and was chosen by God Almighty himself doubted himself to be used to accomplish a divine assignment. In this episode, I talk you through three simple steps you can take to overcome self-doubt.

Sprouting against doubt.
Welcome to the 7th episode of sprouting amongst thorns. Doubt is a killer of abilities. No matter how hard you try, how big or small your ambition is, and your abilities, there will be people who will make you feel you are inadequate. In this episode, I draw lessons from the story of David when his brother and Saul doubted his abilities in I Samuel chapter 17 to give insight on how to respond to doubt.

There is a feast within your Famine Part 2.
Life is a journey and not a destination. The destination can be your chosen destination or Gods appointed destination. How do you identify God's appointed place for you? How do you work, deal with contention, and manifest Gods spoken words? I use the book of Genesis chapter 26 to draw the practicalities of Isaac’s journey and relate it to everyday life.

Shaming Shame (ft Dr.Augusta Olaore)
Shame is a painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behaviour. Shaming targets who a person is, not what they do.
It is hard to let go of shameful experiences especially when there is evidence of the act. It feels like you have little control over your life when the acts of shame become known to loved ones. Which makes being kind to yourself even more difficult. This week, Sophia sits with Dr. Augusta Olaore for a conversation about dealing with shame and how to empathise with yourself and others for total transformation.
