    Breaking Free of the False Self

    We all put on masks. But the greater the difference between our masks and our real selves, the greater our struggles become. This episode is all about how to resolve that tension. How do we relieve the tension and stress of constantly hiding ourselves away and pretending to have it all together?  We believe that lasting life can happen for your good and for God's glory.  Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:00:08 Unpacking the Inner Workings of Our Lives 00:01:43 Identifying the False Self: Who Are You Really? 00:02:18 Presenting a Put-Together Image vs. Being Authentic 00:04:07 The False Self: Desiring Acceptance through Image and Performance 00:05:52 The False Self and the Development of the Shadow 00:07:04 Examples of the False Self and the Shadow 00:10:08 The Impact of the Shadow on Our Lives 00:11:04 The Power and Influence of Shadows 00:13:17 The Consequences of Living into the False Self 00:17:22 Finding Healing by Embracing the True Self 00:21:42 Embracing God's Invitation of Love and Acceptance 00:24:57 Reflecting on Our False Self and Shadow in Life's Story

  2. What Does True Peace Actually Look Like?

    What Does True Peace Actually Look Like?

    What if what we think peace is just a false peace? What if the way we think we find peace is backward?  Peace is more than just the absence of conflict; it is the presence of wholeness. In order to find restoration, healing, and recovery, we often have to push through the difficult things. Just because things seem calm doesn't mean that things are the way they are supposed to be. To find true healing and restoration, we must lean into things that don't always feel peaceful.  (00:06) - Finding true peace: serenity, sanity, and wholeness (02:06) - Shalom: a deeper understanding of peace (05:22) - False peace vs. true peace: facing reality and restoration (11:22) - The impact of unhealed wounds on our lives (12:45) - Jesus is for the injured and those with a limp (15:06) - The myth of happiness and seeking false peace

  3. Finding Peace in the Middle of the Storm

    Finding Peace in the Middle of the Storm

    How do we find serenity in the middle of the storm? This week, we turn to a prayer that many have found to be a help in their journeys. We unpack the serenity prayer, and it's spiritual import to our daily lives. So often, we struggle to deal with our anxiety or navigate the difficult situations we find ourselves in. Finding peace can allow us to move forward.  God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardship as a pathway to peace; taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; trusting that you will make all things right if I surrender to your will; so that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with you forever in the next. Amen. -- Reinhold Niebuhr

  4. Turning Over Control

    Turning Over Control

    The person we trust most is often ourselves. What if we can't trust ourselves as much as we thought? What if we actually need to surrender control to avoid the outcomes it seems like we are headed toward? We have been listening to our own wisdom, and so far it has not gotten us to where we thought it would. This week we look at the freedom that comes with surrendering our lives to Jesus and experiencing the grace that He has for us. You can experience change, just not alone.  (00:04) - Wrestling with Denial and Identifying Insanity (01:51) - Letting Go of Control and Allowing Someone Else to Drive (05:14) - Jesus Take the Wheel: Turning Life Over to Christ (09:39) - Habitual Route to Work (10:44) - Blessed are those with Roads to Zion in their hearts (12:06) - Inviting Jesus to Pave New Roads in Our Hearts (12:57) - Finding Rest in Jesus (15:04) - The Love and Mercy of God

    Stepping Away From Insanity

    Doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results. How do we stop the cycle we are in? If we are stuck in addiction or in the past, we might be behaving in a way that is going to lead to results we don't want. This week we talk about some of the keys to putting a stop to the insanity and turning around.  (00:07) - Introduction: The Rooted Life Change Podcast (01:21) - Illustration: How did we end up here?

  6. The Insanity That is Keeping You Stuck

    The Insanity That is Keeping You Stuck

    No one sets out to end up in a bad place, so how do we end up in places we would never want to go. We get comfortable with how we are living but what if we are comfortable with things that are leading us bad places. When our habits and cycles are unhealthy we need to own the fact that we are not going in a good direction.  (00:06) - Introduction to the Rooted Life Change Podcast (01:34) - Exploring the Concept of Sanity and Insanity (02:34) - Unhealthy Habits and Routines Leading to Undesired Outcomes (03:56) - The Incongruity of Actions Leading to Unwanted Consequences (05:35) - Insanity: Doing the Same Thing and Expecting Different Results (06:32) - Addiction as a Path to Isolation and Loneliness (07:53) - Believing Short-Term Lies and the Consequences of Choices (09:43) - The Lie of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil (11:43) - The Consequences of Our Choices (12:30) - The Insanity of Believing Lies (13:52) - The Lies We Tell Ourselves

  7. The Hidden Reason Why We Get Stuck

    The Hidden Reason Why We Get Stuck

    Pride can take many forms. We might not think of ourselves as prideful, but if we are in a place where we are stuck, it just might be one of the things holding us in place. A place of humility is a place of learning and growing. It's a place where our hearts are ready to receive what God has for us.  We believe that lasting life can happen for your good and for God's glory.  Theme Music by Lexin_Music from Pixabay (00:12) - Addressing Denial and the Obstacle of Shame (02:09) - The Second Obstacle: Pride and the Hero Narrative (08:03) - Pride as the Blame Game and Neglecting Personal Responsibility (11:16) - The Impact of Carrying Our Habits and Mindsets (12:31) - Overcoming Pride and the Importance of Humility (15:03) - Heeding Correction and Embracing Humility (22:58) - Welcoming viewers to the conversation
