    S3:E36 - Offence is a trap you can't afford to fall into

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed podcast, Ashley discusses the topic "Offense is a Trap You Can't Afford to Fall Into," sharing her personal experience dealing with a spirit of offense over a 3-month period. She described how this offense manifested physically as a weight on her chest that was only released when she prayed for the person causing her hurt, recognizing that the spirit of offense was not from God and needed to be uprooted. Ashley emphasized the importance of humility in dealing with offenses, including not over-explaining oneself to others and avoiding gossip, while encouraging listeners to bring their hurts to God rather than allowing them to fester into bitterness. She highlighted that offenses can be a trap that weigh down one's calling and spiritual growth, sharing that even valid hurts should be released through forgiveness to maintain a close relationship with God and allow His Holy Spirit to bear fruit in one's life.

    S3:E35 - Pastor Perspective with Alastair Sterne

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed podcast, host Ashley Russell interviewed Pastor Alastair Sterne (@alastairsterne) about his journey to faith and his book "Longing for Joy." Alastair shared how he transitioned from a non-religious background involving New Age practices and touring as a musician to becoming a Christian at age 22 after a spiritual encounter. He discussed his personal struggle with depression and how he found joy through practices like gratitude journaling, running, and connecting with nature. The conversation covered practical advice for new believers, including the importance of joining a local church, starting with the New Testament and Gospel of Mark, and developing Christian friendships. Alastair emphasized that while feelings may fluctuate, a mature faith is grounded in theological truths about God's presence and the authority of Scripture, which he encourages readers to explore through study and community. Alastair also has two books you can check out!

    S3:E34 - The season is over

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed Podcast, Ashley shares insights from her recent spiritual journey and Bible study in Deuteronomy 1. She discussed how God had led her to pause a previous episode about loss and grief, as she needed to go through additional healing before sharing it publicly. The main focus of this episode was the message "The Season Is Done," where Ashley explored three key points from Deuteronomy 1:6-46 about moving forward when God calls us to leave behind a season that has ended. She emphasized that when God initiates a new direction, we must respond with obedience and not stay in comfort or complacency, even when facing external challenges or discouragement. Ashley stressed the importance of recognizing who supports our faith journey and who might hinder it, noting that 10 of the 12 spies sent to scout the Promised Land brought fear rather than faith. She concluded by announcing plans to open a new low-ticket community ($97 Canadian monthly) to support people starting their calling journey, with more details to be shared on Instagram.

    S3:E33 - Create a testimony

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed Podcast, Ashley discusses her post about "Building a Testimony" and shared her personal journey of transitioning from being a victim of her circumstances to creating a powerful testimony through small, intentional steps. Ashley explained how she spent years reacting to her situation as a single mom struggling financially, but eventually learned to make different choices by trusting God's guidance rather than focusing on her current circumstances. She identified several mistakes people make that keep them stuck in their stories, including mistaking current circumstances for their full story, needing the complete blueprint instead of trusting the architect (God), getting overwhelmed by the full picture and never taking steps, and writing themselves off with "why me" thoughts that are actually fear masked as humility. Ashley emphasized that everyone's testimony begins with small movements in their current situation and shared biblical examples like Joshua's march around Jericho to illustrate how God's plans often don't make sense to humans but lead to incredible outcomes when we trust the process.

    S3:E32 - You can grieve while you grow, but you can't go back

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed podcast, Ashley discusses the topic of grieving while growing spiritually without going back to previous ways of living. She shared her personal experiences of feeling called to change directions in her business and life, including the spiritual warfare and grief that accompanied these changes. Ashley emphasized that following God's calling requires moving by faith in what is unseen rather than relying on what is visible and logical to others. She referenced Hebrews 11:8 about Abraham's faith journey and explained that calling is just the first step in a process that includes faith, obedience, character building, and eventually fruit. Ashley encouraged listeners to identify what needs to be packed or left behind when feeling called to a new direction, to recognize that grief is natural during this transition, and to resist looking back or returning to previous ways despite the discomfort. She stressed that God provides guidance and holds us by the hand through the process, and that the promised land or calling is worth the temporary wilderness journey.

    S3:E31 - When you dismiss the obedience, you miss the miracle

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed Podcast, Ashley discussed Jesus' first miracle of turning water into wine, exploring the deeper spiritual lessons it contains. Ashley explained that the miracle demonstrates how God wants to provide for needs beyond what appears necessary, emphasizing that faith and obedience are essential components for receiving miracles. She highlighted how Mary's faith and obedience to do whatever Jesus told the servants to do was crucial to the miracle's occurrence. Ashley shared her personal experience of how God asked her to put down a successful network marketing business, which initially made no sense but later led to greater blessings when she restarted in a new way. She emphasized that sometimes God asks for "water" (obedience to difficult steps) before providing the desired "wine" (blessing), and that willingness to make multiple trips to the well without understanding the full timeline is essential for receiving God's blessings.

    S3:E30 - How loyalty can walk you out of God's will

    In this episode, Ashley discussed how loyalty can prevent people from following God's will, sharing her personal experiences with this struggle. She explained that loyalty from a place of fear or wounds can mask disalignment with God's plan, using the example of Abraham leaving his home without knowing where he was going by faith. Ashley described how she had to make difficult decisions, including stepping away from her successful network marketing business despite the guilt and potential repercussions with team members. She emphasized the importance of being loyal to God's calling rather than staying committed to circumstances, environments, or people that no longer align with one's spiritual path. Ashley encouraged listeners to examine what they might be loyal to that keeps them out of God's will and to focus on holding tightly to God's vision while remaining flexible with the plan of how it unfolds.

    S3:E29 - Feeling out of place comes before feeling aligned

    In this episode of the Armed and Anointed Podcast, Ashley Russell discussed her personal experience of feeling out of alignment and out of place as she transitions to a new season in her life. She shared how she had a difficult day when people she used to be close with in her day-to-day life began to distance themselves, creating a sense of loneliness despite having supportive people who understand her current identity. Ashley explained that this feeling of disconnection is natural during life transitions, particularly when moving from one season to another, and emphasized the importance of sitting with these emotions rather than avoiding them. She discussed how God meets people in their pain and encourages them to continue following His path even when it's uncomfortable, highlighting that feeling out of place is often a necessary step before achieving true alignment with God's plan. Ashley also shared insights about the Greek words for spirit and soul, explaining how aligning with God requires renewing one's mind and emotions to be in harmony with the divine.
