    Loving God, your neighbor (including enemies), and yourself

    Loving God, your neighbor (including enemies), and yourself

    In this episode of Priorities On Purpose, Christian Life Coach and Faith Mentor, Melissa discusses the importance of loving oneself and one's neighbors, as commanded by Jesus in the Bible. She also encourages listeners to assess how well they are loving God and others and to journal about it for self-reflection. Melissa emphasizes that loving oneself is not about self-indulgence but about self-care and kindness. She also challenges listeners to love their neighbors, regardless of differences, and to remember that everyone has a purpose. She shares personal experiences of struggling to forgive and love those who have wronged her, and the realization that her actions could either help or hinder their relationship with God.
     
    Melissa concludes by urging listeners to step out of their comfort zones, as it can lead to personal and spiritual growth.   Bible verses discussed (NIV translation): 

Matthew 22: 35-40 

Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law? Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And, the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."  1 Corinthians 13: 4-7  Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

    Saying no to alcohol and the power of sobriety for Christians

    Saying no to alcohol and the power of sobriety for Christians

    In this episode of Priorities On Purpose, Christian Life Coach and Faith Mentor, Melissa Batt discusses her journey toward sobriety and her intentional decision to say no to alcohol forever. She emphasizes that her experiences and convictions are not prescriptions for others, but are meant to be a conversation starter. Melissa talks about her convictions with alcohol, and prescription medication like Xanax, and Benadryl. She also shares specific examples of how her decision to say no to these things has benefitted her over the last few years. 
    This is a great episode if you are ready to be intentional with your healing journey or know you have an addictive personality. For those who have lost a loved one, suffer from anxiety or depression, or have experienced trauma, consider this episode as a segue to ask yourself important questions related to grief and numbing your emotions to avoid feeling pain, sadness, anger, etc.
    If you are ready to heal instead of escape the pain, this episode will give you hope as Melissa shares how she has been able to move forward toward true healing from trauma and tough situations. Giving alcohol up has allowed her to feel all the feelings and process the pain fully instead of just numbing and avoiding it.
    She encourages listeners to seek God's guidance in their own lives and to trust in His wisdom.

    When fear & anxiety wake you up in the middle of the night

    When fear & anxiety wake you up in the middle of the night

    In this episode of Priorities On Purpose, Life Coach, Melissa Batt discusses situational anxiety, particularly the kind that arises in the middle of the night or during times of conflict or chaos. She clarifies that she's not referring to diagnosed general anxiety disorder in this episode although she has been diagnosed and has experience with it.
     
    Melissa shares her personal experiences and offers advice on how to manage such anxiety. She suggests turning to worship music, reading the Bible, and praying. She also recommends reaching out to others for prayer support when you're unable to pray for yourself. She also advises against scary movies, true crime podcasts, and anything related to the occult or witchcraft. She also suggests being mindful of late-night eating habits.
     
    Melissa (who is also a faith mentor for women who want to grow their relationship with God) says one of the most powerful things you can do is identify what is worrying you and surrender it to God. Tough, she understands that it isn't always possible.

    She couldn't find Jasmine Brady's song on Spotify to add to the playlist but it is one of her top recommendations when the anxiety and fear seem out of control. The words of the song will minister to your soul. Bookmark it. It's THAT good! https://soundcloud.com/jasminecbrady/speak-the-name-of-jesus

    The fear of being seen, judged and other insecurities when God says Speak Up

    In this episode of Priorities on Purpose, host Melissa Batt discusses the importance of speaking up and the potential costs of doing so. She shares her personal journey from being a timid, insecure person to becoming more assertive and vocal, particularly in her direct sales career. Melissa also discusses the spiritual aspect of speaking up, emphasizing that it is a form of obedience to God. She warns against the dangers of staying silent, citing the "spiral of silence" theory, which suggests that people often remain silent when they fear the consequences of speaking up.
     
    Melissa, who is also a Christian Life Coach, also shares her experiences of speaking up about serious issues such as sexual abuse, and the importance of being prepared to face potential backlash or consequences. She reminds listeners that their identity should be rooted in God, not their actions or experiences.

    How to protect your mental health and learning to create healthy habits

    How to protect your mental health and learning to create healthy habits

    In this episode of Priorities On Purpose, Christian Life Coach and Faith Mentor, Melissa Batt discusses the importance of routines and healthy habits. She explains that routines allow us to operate on autopilot, freeing up brain capacity for other tasks. However, she warns against falling into bad habits, especially those picked up while living in survival mode. This is a great episode if you struggle with depression, ADHD, and/or anxiety, or have recently found yourself in a funk and are ready to climb your way out of living a life of exhaustion.
     
    Melissa emphasizes how the importance of creating healthy habits contribute to physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional well-being. She also acknowledges that life circumstances can disrupt routines and advises listeners to give themselves grace when they fall back into old habits. She also encourages listeners to identify a healthy habit they would like to create a routine for and consider what changes they can make to improve existing routines. This is a great goal to set and work on for the next 12-week challenge.

Powerfully inspiring!

Just listened to episode 43 and was so encouraged and blessed by the stories shared. Real life is broken and imperfect, even for Christian women, but God stays faithful and true. Thank you to the women who shared and their openness to sharing their stories. Such a blessing! ~ Anna l Plant Based Eating Made Easy
