She invites listeners to enter through the gate of Jesus Christ so as not to risk missing true healing. By offering scriptural foundations surrounding such renewal, she discusses the process of inner healing and getting in touch with our inmost being by understanding our inner parts, accessing feelings, guarding our hearts, taking thoughts captive, and learning to stay in the present moment.
