    Truth Identity & Self Esteem | Allen & Stacy Jo

    Send us Fan Mail What you believe about yourself shapes everything — your relationships, your decisions, your faith, and your freedom. In this between-season special, Allen and Stacy Jo Thorne dive deep into what they call truth identity: seeing yourself as God sees you through Jesus Christ — and actually believing it. Pulled from their ministry, Reviving Recovery Unbound, this episode is a direct, grace-filled conversation about the lies that quietly shape our identity — and the truth that sets us free. From people-pleasing and perfectionism to control and comparison, Allen and Stacy Jo name the "shiny lies" the world offers in place of the stable identity that can only be found in Christ. You'll walk away with:   •  Clarity on why knowing scripture isn't the same as receiving God's truth in your heart   •  Understanding of how the Holy Spirit works at the root of our struggles, not just the behavior   •  A 5-step practical framework for identifying and releasing lie-based beliefs   •  Biblical declarations to speak over yourself and renew your mind This is not about shallow self-help or positive thinking. This is about the transforming work of the Holy Spirit, grounded in God's Word, in your everyday life. "You were created on purpose, for God's purpose. Walk in truth, walk in freedom, walk in and with Christ."

    Why Most Christian Leaders Get This Wrong at Work | Allen & Stacy Jo

    Send us Fan Mail You have access to people in your workplace that a pastor or missionary will never have access to. So the real question isn't whether your work is sending a message — it's what message it's sending. In Episode 5 of Season 7, Allen and Stacy Jo Thorne take everything they've built this season and load it into Monday through Friday, because the legacy you leave in the marketplace is just as real and just as eternal as anything built inside a church building. The anchor and the shift: Rooted in Colossians 3:23–24 — "Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as unto the Lord" — this episode challenges every believer to make a complete paradigm shift in how they approach their daily work. When every decision and interaction is viewed as serving Jesus, it changes everything about everything. And when Daniel 6:3 shows us a man distinguished above all others — not because he was the most spiritual in the room, but because an excellent spirit was in him — we have our Kingdom marketplace model. The 3 traps that quietly derail your marketplace legacy: Integrity Pressure — When the easier path on a business deal isn't the most honest one, and the culture around you has quietly normalized what doesn't sit right with your spirit. This is where marketplace legacy is actually forged.The Compartmentalization Trap — Keeping faith and work in separate lanes sounds respectful and professional, until the separation goes so deep that your work self and your kingdom self become two functionally different people. James calls it double-mindedness. It's unstable in every way.The Success Trap — When revenue increases and margins expand, there's a gravitational pull toward protecting what you've built rather than continuing to advance the kingdom. The legacy quietly becomes about the brand instead of the one the brand is supposed to point to.Tune into the episode to hear the three practical resets! Your one takeaway this week: Ask yourself — Does the way I lead at work point people toward God or toward myself? The answer tells you exactly where your marketplace legacy currently stands, and where it needs to go. 📖 Key Scriptures: Colossians 3:23–24, Matthew 5:16, Daniel 6:3, Luke 12:48, James 1 🔗 Mentioned: U.S. Christian Chamber of Commerce (SWC 2026) — https://business.uschristianchamber.com/ Faithfully Invested is a podcast for Kingdom-minded leaders navigating faith, business, and purpose.
