    203. Endings | New Things | It’s About Jesus

    Do you feel like God is doing a new thing in you? Have you felt like you’ve been in transition? I have been in a transition season this past year after selling my business and I am sensing God drawing me into His heart in a deeper way than I’ve ever been before. I am sensing that I need to lay down the podcast for a season until I have the green light again. Normally I am a big dreamer and have all sorts of ideas but right now I don’t have anything. I am trying to listen to God and what He has for me during this time. Maybe you are in the same place. I will walk through what we need to do during hard and awkward times of change, pruning, stretching and growth. You will experience encouragement and ministry in this episode as we explore what God is doing right now during this season of transition for many of us. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. ~Isaiah 43:19 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit. ~John 15:2 For those whom the Lord loves He discipline. ~Hebrews 12:6 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com Purchase the book The Brave Encourager: https://www.amazon.com/Brave-Encourager-Power-Encouragement-Changes/dp/B09TN45H36/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3HGP5FPY2E5GD&keywords=the+brave+encourager&qid=1646608516&sprefix=the+brave+encourager%2Caps%2C223&sr=8-1 Join my mailing list: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/t5u2y5 If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    202. Seeing Angels and Demons with Micah Turnbo

    Have you seen angels and demons? Do you sense things in the spirit? In this encouraging episode with Seer and Prophet Micah Turnbo, you will be drawn into the heart of God and a relationship with the Holy Spirit. As a child, Micah could see angels, demons and other spiritual creatures. This episode will dive into many great topics, including when to seek counseling even when you have spiritual gifts. Often people are diagnosed with mental illnesses when they have spiritual sensitivities and gifts that just need to used. Micah’s mom stewarded his gift well so he knew he had gifts. We aren’t wrong for feeling our intense feelings. We need to learn how to listen to the Holy Spirit, let God teach us and grow in discernment. And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: ‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, And seeing you will see and not perceive; For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.’ But blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear; for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it. ~Matthew 13:14-17 Micah’s website: https://beholdwonder.com/about-micah/ Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    201. Addiction Is Not a Disease with Melissa Huray

    Have you felt ashamed of your addiction? Do you want to experience God’s empowerment instead of judgement? Melissa Huray with an author and host of the Hope Report. She challenges our typical belief in addictions and shifts us to think of the radical hope of being free because of Jesus. Many think addictions are a disease but Melissa challenges us to see it as an attempt to solve a problem. In this episode you will hear about some of the controversial topics around addiction, deliverance, and mental health. Melissa believes that the medicalization of addiction keeps people trapped and that we have it forever. She experienced radical freedom from addiction but quickly realized her addiction was from trauma in her childhood, shame, image issues, self-esteem and panic attacks. We need to go after the root issues that cause the addiction, not medicate as a band-aid to the real problem. God wants us to feel empowered and free, not continually live in a place of shame for the rest of our life. “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” ~Ephesians 2:10 Melissa’s website: https://melissahuray.com/ To purchase Melissa’s book: https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Freedom-Breaking-Addiction-Strength/dp/1424567122?crid=3H5BS24FJDF0H&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.4ZRvHGAZF9hwnNRUp2fF65PuDIpvKUX9QUsXLvGcLxM.vthYAbBG9Si32MOV0D3O5hEZSLfLLOSjJaQT7TBH3Fo&dib_tag=se&keywords=melissa+hurray+radical+freedom&qid=1732289986&sprefix=melissa+hurray+radical+freedom%2Caps%2C90&sr=8-1-fkmr0 Heidi’s website: https://heidimortensonlmft.com/ If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    200. Witchcraft, Affairs and Magic with Amanda Hirdler

    Are you still dabbling with the world and Christianity? Are you all in for the Kingdom of God? Amanda grew up in a Christian home but wasn’t buying it and she rebelled against her parents. She experienced a traumatic moment with a friend who became paralyzed by diving into the water but grew a weird savior complex that she was better than him. She started having affairs, dating and living with other man while still being married. They got divorced and she got involved in crystals, tarot cards, horoscope, gnosticsm, magic rituals and more. She started to experience physically sicknesses and was lost. Since she was open to a broad “spiritual package” she also brought in some Bible verses. Slowly, there was a slow slide of her drawing closer to God. She still had a plan to be a witch with a guy she was with but heard a voice that told her to go to church. The Lord brought her miraculously back to her husband and they remarried again. Her story is full of twists and turns and all the miracle working God that is available to all of us. Be encouraged and full of hope in this amazing interview of redemption! “You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings. Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.” ~Psalms 23:5-6 NLT Amanda’s website: https://amandahirdler.com/ Amanda’s podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/oopsy-daisy/id1625793629 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    199. Hope After Church Hurt with Joe Dobbins

    Church hurt is a word that has been used quite a bit lately but what does it mean? And if we have been hurt by a church, what does Jesus want for us in response? What we often don’t see when we are hurt is that it is the people of God who hurt us, but God’s heart is for us to be healed. Pastor Joe Dobbins is the lead pastor of Twin Rivers Church in Missouri, USA, and he write a book called “Hope After Church Hurt”. He talks about 8 unique hurts from the church and how we can find a unique path forward. We often ask the question why and this is not always helpful. Some topics discussed are hypocrisy, judgementalism, rejection, sexual abuse, toxic leaders and more. This episode will empower you to make a decision to say yes to Jesus healing your hurt, instead of staying in it. You don’t need to be partially healed, but all the way. We aren’t in charge of this, Jesus is. But Jesus doesn’t heal us without us saying YES to the healer. “Just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him. Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.” Colossians 2:6-7 Joe’s website: https://www.joedobbins.org/about Purchase Joe’s book: https://www.amazon.com/Hope-after-Church-Hurt-Rediscover/dp/0800772644?crid=OBY7C36T3CYX&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.W6Gk38lgGcXiX8GCW3W14xGwHR7ypW3GB3dl59mkUONmtysI4VgmHLeDB6Ibh41w4Z6ZRPDOnkCEeKMGBzztFAWm-0gDfx1Ikn0inkboPu96VfG73A9ZZ7lwLpi8ckRjgfTLetcRuNSaOV0l63rNNwDvsD0gEkEpWSqWus8Ly2jTPMz0OeU4NugxVVBdRzoSiiL959ZgOLrBQzfvZwA8bsmWefTm3MlgKH3zEAmHNGM.SkbST-Sv-q8Q5EHrTxaQuNlBFE5O1Z5DuLyXFHw90kU&dib_tag=se&keywords=hope+after+church+hurt&qid=1710354741&sprefix=hope+after+church+hurt%2Caps%2C94&sr=8-1 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.

    197. False Prophets and Psychological Control with Dr. Mark Chironna

    Have you experienced false prophesy and psychological damage from it? Have you had a leader in your church demand that you listen to them even though their character was tainted? In this revelatory episode, you will hear the brilliant Dr. Mark Chironna talk about the biblical intention of prophesy and how we have gravitated towards trinket show prophesy instead of Jesus. He talks about the shift in the church of egos wanting to be praised instead of seeking the real savior in Jesus Christ. We all have aspects of our psyche like memory, imagination, intuition, will, cognition and this is part of being a human being. We are subjective and have opinions, distortions and biases. We need accountability in the prophetic. We need to focus on character, the fruit of the spirit and self-awareness. If we lose the perspective of the nature of the God-head and worship is about what feels good. We need to fall in love with Jesus and see the beauty of prophesy through Him. “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.” ~Matthew 7:15 “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts.” ~Isaiah 6:5 “The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.” ~1 Corinthians 14:32 Mark’s website: https://www.markchironna.com/ Purchase Rising with Hope: A 30-Day Devotional for Overcoming Anxiety and Depression: https://www.amazon.com/Rising-Hope-Devotional-Overcoming-Depression/dp/0800772938?crid=19W5TVKQ8IXR1&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WN4nghQqMRwmu5t77s2Tiw.3dxZNH9LRRG4qqFzXJM8huczWt9FGaPVxSsz0iEu6UU&dib_tag=se&keywords=rising+with+hope+mark+chironna&qid=1730655540&sprefix=mark+chironn%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-1 Find more about Heidi: www.heidimortensonlmft.com If you are in crisis, help is available by call or text 1-800-273-8255 24/7.
