    What Ecclesiastes Taught Me About Surrender, Seasons, and Simplicity

    When life feels like a treadmill — busy, productive, but strangely empty — Ecclesiastes meets us right there.In this episode, Megan Henderson unpacks Solomon’s brutally honest reflections on meaning, surrender, and the beauty of simplicity.

This message will help you:– Release the pressure to have it all figured out.– Find peace in your current season — even the confusing ones.– Rediscover joy in simplicity and rest.– Remember that meaning doesn’t come from what you do, but who you belong to. Whether you’re burned out, tired of “doing all the things,” or just longing for something real — this episode will breathe life back into your soul. 📖 “He has made everything beautiful in its time.” — Ecclesiastes 3:11 🖤Follow Megan at meganhenderson.orgInstagram: @meganhendersonofficialPodcast: The Fire & the Freedom

    He Makes Beauty from Ashes

    In this episode of The Fire & the Freedom, Megan Henderson invites you into the raw, redemptive work of God as He takes our broken mess and turns it into a masterpiece. Titled “He Makes Beauty from Ashes,” we dig into Isaiah 61:3 and Job’s story to see how the Lord specializes in divine reversals—transforming our failures, regrets, and seasons of mourning into garlands of praise. Through personal stories, hard-earned truths, and the unfiltered beauty of creation (yes, even that dragonfly hovering over the pond!), Megan shows us that true beauty isn’t skin-deep or tied to our circumstances; it’s born deep in the heart when the Spirit breathes new life into our ashes. Along the way, we confront the myth of “pretty” that society sells us—filters, facades, and fleeting trends—only to discover that God’s standard of beauty is radically countercultural. From 1 Samuel 16:7’s reminder that He looks at the heart to Galatians 5:22–23’s promise that His joy radiates from the inside out, you’ll learn how to reorient your gaze, invest in soul work, and worship through acts of compassion. Plus, we’ll take a brief, five-minute “Nature Break” to see God’s artistry in a single leaf, birdsong, or dragonfly’s dance—because sometimes the smallest moments become the loudest whispers of God’s glory. Whether you’re trudging through ashes right now or you’ve already begun to glimpse your new identity in Christ, this episode will encourage you to believe that God is never “done” with your story. He’s not just restoring what was lost—He’s creating something far more beautiful than you ever dreamed possible. Join us and discover how to live free, eyes wide open to the Kingdom-level beauty He’s already weaving in your life.

    Strong Enough to be Soft

    Strong Enough to Be SoftCulture says softness is weakness. The Kingdom says it’s strength under surrender. In this episode, we flip the narrative and talk about what it really means to be spiritually flexible—not fragile. Softness isn’t passivity—it’s obedience. It’s saying “yes” to God when it hurts. It’s bending without breaking, pivoting without losing identity, and staying pliable in the Potter’s hands. If you've been wearing hardness like armor, this one's for you. God is making you strong enough to be soft.
