What's God Got To Do With It? With Leanne Ellington iHeartPodcasts

On this episode of "The God Pod", we're diving headfirst into Shane Murray's incredible journey chronicled in his book "Jesus Frees Us."

Picture this: from the wild world of drugs and hanging with the wrong crowd, Shane found himself in a dark place. But God stepped in, flipped his life upside down, and set him on a whole new path.

It wasn't an overnight change, as he was still met with highs, lows, and challenges, but with raw honesty and unwavering faith, he shares his remarkable story of redemption.

His encounter with Christ didn't stop with his own journey, as he's now helping other men find their way out of the darkness just like he did. Listen in as we unpack his relateable journey to rock-solid faith, and how he's using it to speak into the lives of others.

Leanne is back with Scott and Ketric for another episode of our "Ask the God Pod" series. This week they tackle a question many newcomers to faith share: What does prayer look like?

In this episode of "Ask the God Pod," Scott and Ketric are back to tackle a listener's heartfelt question about coping with the immense stress of supporting a loved one struggling with addiction. For over two decades, this listener has been on a turbulent journey alongside her brother, who battles alcoholism. Initially driven by the hope of saving him, the toll on her own well-being has become increasingly apparent. She's endured the emotional rollercoaster of multiple rehab attempts, homelessness, and hospitalizations, all while feeling the weight of responsibility grow heavier. As the stress seeped into every aspect of her life, from relationships to her own health, she wants to know how to detach from the drama and reclaim a sense of control and peace amidst the chaos. Join us as we explore the power of perspective, resilience, and faith in navigating the challenges of loving someone through addiction.

We are back to conversation the started in last week's episode about the five D's of the enemy: Doubt, Discouragement, Diversion, Defeat, and Delay, where we talked about the importance of inviting God into the conversation from the beginning and taking radical responsibility for our ability to influence our own thoughts and emotions. Today we are taking a look at the other 'side of the coin' as we explore the transformative power of God's love through the lens of the 5 C's: Connection, Care, Compassion, Clarity, and Curiosity, with an additional "A" for Acceptance. These are the qualities and tools to strengthen your relationship with God and counteract the tactics of the enemy. Through unwavering faith, actively seeking God's guidance, and embracing a spirit of curiosity, we encourage you to conquer any obstacle and navigate life's challenges with resilience and grace.HOST: @LeanneEllington
