That's Just What I Needed Podcast Donna Jones

Unlock the secrets of your true purpose and potential as my pastor and husband, Dr. JP Jones joins me in a profound exploration of identity in Christ. 
JP often says, “The truest thing about you is what God says is true.” In my experience, most of us nod our heads in agreement with this but find it hard to believe in real life. Instead, we believe what others say about us, what culture tells us, or what our experiences dictate. As a result, we live in bondage–oftentimes completely unaware of just how shackled we are!
This episode is a journey toward spiritual emancipation, where we discuss not just the liberating power of grace and truth but also the practice of internalizing these gifts to free ourselves from the crippling weights of guilt, shame, and the lies we believe about ourselves. JP shares pearls of wisdom from his book "Facing Goliath," guiding us through the importance of framing our belief systems in alignment with the infallible truth of Scripture. 
Together, we address the victories, the challenges, and the unyielding love that comes with being reborn in Christ—empowering you to walk in the fullness of the freedom and authority bestowed upon you as a beloved child of God.

Many women struggle with emotional eating at some point in their lives. It can become easy to turn to food when we’re sad, lonely, angry, or bored. In today's episode, I chatted with Danna Demetre, author and registered nurse, who helped us unlock the secrets to a healthier relationship with food. 
Listen in to discover how to gain control over emotional eating and liberate yourself from guilt and self-condemnation. We dive into Dana's transformative study, "Beyond Emotional Eating: Spiritual Steps to Gain Control Over Food," and learn how integrating our faith can be the key to wholeness in every aspect of life. Shame can be a shackle, but this episode is about breaking free from habits that keep us stuck!

Discover the profound journey of embracing sensitivity in a world that often misunderstands it!
 
Today, I’m joined by speaker, author, and pastor's wife, Cheri Gregory, for an intimate conversation about what it means to be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). Her co-authored book, "Sensitive and Strong," offers a beacon of understanding for HSPs and those who love them, work with them, or do life with them. 
 
You may recognize yourself, your child, your spouse, or your friend among HSPs! 
 
Our conversation is a testament to the beauty of tears, the value of tools, and the power of personal growth. Join us for an episode that promises to be just as enlightening as it is, validating the sensitive spirit within us all.
 
Xo,
Donna
