112. Freedom From Fear. Walking By Faith. True Freedom At Last!

112. Freedom From Fear. Walking By Faith. True Freedom At Last!

What are you afraid of? What if the biggest thing standing between you and the life God has for you... is fear? This Fourth of July weekend inspired me to think about a different kind of freedom—the freedom to stop living intimidated by people, circumstances, bad reports, or the "what ifs" that steal our peace. In this episode, we'll explore what the Bible says about courage, why God calls us to walk by faith instead of fear, and how the story of Joseph proves that what others intended for harm, God can use for good. I'll also share a personal update about my husband's cancer journey and why we've chosen faith over fear. If you've been worrying about your future, your health, your family, or a decision you need to make, this episode is a reminder that fear doesn't have to have the final word. God has not called you to live as a prisoner of fear. He has called you to walk in faith, courage, and freedom.

111. When Your Father Isn't Perfect

How gratitude, forgiveness, and God's perfect love can bring healing to your heart. Father's Day may be over, but the impact our fathers have on our lives lasts all year. In this episode, I'm sharing my own journey of forgiveness, gratitude, and healing as I reflect on my relationship with my earthly father—and how it has shaped my understanding of my Heavenly Father. No matter what your relationship with your dad looks like, I hope you'll be encouraged to remember that there are no perfect earthly fathers, but there is a perfect Heavenly Father who loves you completely. You'll also walk away with a simple journaling exercise to help you focus on gratitude, choose forgiveness, and remember this truth: You were created on purpose, for a purpose. Because no matter your story… you are significant.

109. My Father Didn't Want Me—But God Did

When Your Father Didn't Want You: Finding Your Significance in God's Love with Frannie Fultz In this powerful episode of You Are Significant, I sit down with Frannie Fultz, host of the Shine With Frannie podcast and author of Holy and Hillarious, to discuss how she found her identity, purpose, and joy in Christ despite growing up with a father who openly told her he didn't want her. After years of struggling with rejection, emotional pain, food addiction, and self-worth, Frannie discovered that her value was never determined by her earthly father's opinion—it was established by her Heavenly Father's love. Together, we talk about healing from rejection, finding your identity in Christ, letting go of relationships God is pruning, building meaningful friendships, and trusting God through life's difficult seasons. If you've ever felt unwanted, overlooked, or alone, this conversation will remind you that your significance is not determined by who failed to love you, but by the God who created you on purpose and for a purpose.

108. Failure's Part In Your Significance

Failure is an inseperable part of your significance. The more quickly you accept this and stop fighting it but embracing it the more significant you will become. Isn't it actually endearing when you meet someone who isn't afraid of failure? You love them more and their influence grows quickly and strong. When a little one learns how to tie their shoes it requires failure to become a success. That success earns them respect, praise, admiration-ingredients in the recipe for significance. Listen in as Darlene shares how your failure is necesarily related to your signifance .
