Are you stuck replaying the past? Do feelings of shame, fear, or emotional numbness keep you from stepping into the future God has for you? In this episode, we confront the prison of self-condemnation and explore how your past does not define you.
You’ll discover:
- Why emotional responses are not the enemy—but how you respond to them matters
- How to recognize self-condemnation and surrender it at the feet of Jesus
- The importance of renewing your mind and allowing God to rewrite your story
- What Scripture says about your identity, worth, and purpose
You are uniquely designed by God, and He has never stopped being faithful. Today is the day you trade the lies for truth and walk in freedom.
