Trade a Lie for a Truth

heidileeanderson

Did God *really* say He’d use all things for His glory + your good? Doesn’t look that good to me... Did He *really* say peace is possible? I wouldn’t hold your breath... Did God *really* say He’d never leave you? Well then... where is He? And did God *really* say He’d give you rest? Because (no offense) you look pretty tired + defeated to me... Bottom line: Our enemy is out to kill our peace, destroy our faith, and steal our hope. How? By planting lies in our minds in hopes we take the bait. Good news for us though: Jesus came to set us free, and ”if we abide in His Word, we’ll know the truth + the truth will set us free” (John 8:32).This is the show for you if you’re ready to pick up the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, and stand firm in the truth, defusing every fiery dart and seizing that abundant life Jesus always gives. Join host Heidi Lee Anderson, popular social media creator and author of P.S. It’s Gonna Be Good, episode by episode as we Trade a Lie for a Truth.

    Feeling out of place in today's world? When culture shifts + you don’t (with Marian Jordan Ellis)

    Ever feel like you're living in a world you just can’t relate to anymore? Where prayer has been traded for good vibes, what’s wrong is celebrated as if it’s right, “live your truth” has replaced the truth, and “follow your heart” gets louder applause than following Jesus?   Join me as I sit down with Marian Jordan Ellis, author of the new Lifeway Women’s study Anchored, to expose the tricky lie of “I just can’t relate to this world anymore,” and instead of a bad thing, we’ll find how it’s not only a very good thing, but it’s the very place God positioned us on purpose to shine bright for Him.   All in all, if you’ve ever felt like a spiritual fish out of water — this one’s for you. Together, let’s step forward into the truth that we’re not alone, our God’s not irrelevant, and we’re definitely not without purpose in this post-Christian world.   Don’t forget to share or leave a review about this episode to be entered to win her new study studying the letters of Peter, Anchored!   🔗 Connect more with Marian: https://thisredeemedlife.org Instagram: www.instagram.com/marianjordanellis Her new study, Anchored: https://rstyle.me/+6vtRmcaQ9A6_eJLsGgf2yw   🔗 Connect with Heidi: Her new devotional, All In, All Yours: https://rstyle.me/+11Ii1owgccFkGPU0t1uz3w Instagram: www.instagram.com/heidileeanderson https://heidileeandersonministries.com

    Does God Value Women Less? (with Amy Seiffert + Jami Nato)

    Have you ever caught yourself shrinking back—unsure if your voice, gifts, or calling mattered as much as the guys around you? Maybe you’ve played small in ministry because you didn’t want to come off as too much. Or wondered if being “quiet” and “safe” was your lane because you’re a woman? Whew. You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re trading one of the oldest lies in the book—the idea that women are somehow less in value, voice, or calling—for the truth that God never said that. From Genesis to Jesus, we’ll trace God’s heart toward His daughters and see that His design has always been equal in worth and distinct in role—image-bearers, co-laborers, and essential to the body of Christ. To help unpack this, Heidi’s joined by two powerhouse Bible teachers and authors, Jami Nato (This Must Be the Place) and Amy Seiffert (Your Name Is Daughter). Together, the three dive into: ✨ What the Bible actually says about women starting in the beginning of Genesis ✨ How Jesus treated women—and what that reveals about God’s heart ✨ How to confidently live as a daughter of God while linking arms with His sons This isn’t a feminist rant or a man-bashing session. It’s a freeing conversation about God’s good design for both women and men—and how the enemy’s been twisting it for far too long. Grab your coffee, your Bible, and maybe your best girlfriend—because today, we’re trading the lie of “less than” for the truth of who God says you are. 🔗 Connect with Our Guests: Amy Seiffert Instagram: www.instagram.com/amyseiffert Podcast: Seminary Sisters Book: Your Name Is Daughter, https://rstyle.me/+zmHfbfzK32wrLrbbhiz7uw Jami Nato Instagram: www.instagram.com/jami_nato Podcast: Seminary Sisters Book: This Must Be the Place, https://rstyle.me/+hVzQJIAcaF40eoYmvREv7A 💛 Connect with Heidi: Instagram: www.instagram.com/heidileeanderson Grab the All In Devotional: https://rstyle.me/+11Ii1owgccFkGPU0t1uz3w www.heidileeandersonministries.com Subscribe + leave a review to help more people trade lies for God’s truth!

    LIE: Fear Gives Good Counsel vs. TRUTH: God is the Wise Counselor (with Susie Larson)

    You know those warnings that go off in our mind? “You better prepare for the worst.” “You can’t trust people — you’ve been hurt before.” “God might not come through this time.” “Play it safe. Don’t risk it.” It sounds like wisdom. It feels like caution. But underneath, it’s fear. And fear is not the fruit of a good counselor — it’s the evidence of a liar. Scripture tells us in 2 Timothy 1:7 that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, love, and a sound mind. That means anytime fear is steering the ship, God isn’t the one driving. The enemy loves to masquerade as someone looking out for you. He’ll disguise fear as foresight. He’ll present anxiety as “being realistic.” But he’s not protecting you — he’s paralyzing you. Why? Because fear shrinks your faith. It keeps you stuck. It puts you in self-preservation mode instead of God-trust mode. So today, how about you join Susie Larson and me in trading that lie — the enemy’s warnings are worth listening to — for this truth: God alone gives wise counsel, and His perfect love casts out fear?  Susie Larson is a bestselling author, national speaker, and host of the popular radio show Susie Larson Live, and her book, Closer Than Your Next Breath was a finalist for the ECPA book of the year in 2024.
