Find the full episode here >>> Resentment: The Silent Thief of Your Spiritual Peace

Hidden deep beneath our smiles and daily routines, resentment can silently rob us of joy, peace, and spiritual connection. We often carry these wounds far longer than we realize, allowing them to color our relationships and distance us from God's healing presence.

This powerful episode explores the subtle ways bitterness takes root in our hearts and offers a compassionate roadmap for finding freedom. We dive into biblical wisdom from Hebrews 12:15 about how resentment spreads beyond ourselves and examine Joseph's remarkable journey from betrayal to forgiveness. Rather than suggesting quick fixes or spiritual bypassing, we acknowledge the very real pain of wounds while offering practical, Scripture-based approaches to genuine healing.

What makes this conversation unique is the holistic approach to emotional and spiritual wellness. Beyond prayer and Scripture, we explore how God's natural gifts—including therapeutic-grade essential oils—can support our nervous systems during the challenging work of releasing long-held hurts. The Aroma Freedom Technique offers a bridge between spiritual intention and physiological calm, creating space for the Holy Spirit's gentle healing work.

Whether you're carrying decades of hurt or simply notice resentment creeping into your thoughts, this episode provides compassionate guidance for acknowledging pain, choosing forgiveness, and maintaining freedom through gratitude, empathy, and regular spiritual check-ins. Most importantly, you'll discover that healing from resentment isn't about excusing what happened—it's about releasing your right to hold onto pain while trusting God with the outcome.

Feeling spiritually drained? You're not alone. That exhaustion isn't a sign of weakness—it's a signal that you've been carrying more than you were meant to carry alone.

Most believers who pour themselves out for others eventually reach a point where their own spiritual tanks run empty. The real challenge isn't just external noise—it's the internal weight of expectations, responsibilities, and the guilt that comes from feeling spiritually inadequate. Isaiah reminds us that "in quietness and trust is your strength," but that quietness doesn't just happen naturally in our overstimulated world.

In this soul-nourishing episode, we explore seven biblical affirmations that combat spiritual exhaustion, including "God's strength is made perfect in my weakness" and "I don't need to earn rest; I receive it as a gift from God." You'll discover a simple 15-minute devotional routine designed for real life, learn how sensory anchors like biblical essential oils can create sacred moments throughout your day, and understand why setting boundaries around your spiritual practices isn't selfish—it's sacred.

Whether you're a prayer warrior, caregiver, or someone who simply feels disconnected from God amid life's demands, this episode offers practical tools to reclaim your connection with the divine. Because your spiritual wellbeing matters, and you don't have to navigate this journey alone.

Find more in my blog: 7 Powerful Truths Every Christian Disciple Needs to Know

What does it truly mean to make disciples when everything around you feels like it's crumbling? After enduring the harrowing hours while waiting for my twin grandchildren to reunite with their parents during the devastating Guadalupe River flood, I've reflected deeply on that question. And thus arrived at the explanation that the Great Commission wasn't just for the twelve disciples—it's for every believer for all times.

When Jesus said "Go and make disciples of all nations," He was establishing the foundation for our purpose on earth. This call to discipleship means surrendering everything: heart, soul, mind, and strength to Christ. It's a complete identity transformation that happens through the power of the Holy Spirit shaping us for His work.

Jesus didn't choose His followers based on impressive credentials. He selected ordinary people—tax collectors and fishermen—who were simply willing to say yes. God isn't searching for perfection in us either; He's looking for availability.

Discipleship happens in the quiet corners of everyday life: bedtime prayers with your children, conversations over coffee with friends, or mentoring someone who's struggling. When we embrace this sacred commission, even our interruptions become divine appointments.

The path isn't without cost. Jesus spoke clearly about placing Him above everything else—even family. This doesn't mean abandoning our responsibilities, but centering Christ in everything. Sometimes this requires stepping away from relationships that hinder the gospel or showing up for others while your own heart is breaking. Yet even in our pain, we remain called.

Let's rise up in faithfulness, making disciples not out of obligation, but because we've experienced the profound love of the One who commissioned us.
