Spiritual Formation Is Not Self-Improvement | Stop Fighting God

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394029/fan_mail/new] Spiritual formation is not self-improvement. If we keep trying to fix ourselves, control everything, or only surrender until life gets uncomfortable, this episode will help us see what God may actually be doing. Matthew breaks down why formation is not behavior modification, why the Holy Spirit is the answer to the flesh, and how God often forms us by removing what does not belong. We talk about surrender, food, movement, trials, stress, control, and the small daily choices where Christ is formed in us. This is not about becoming a better version of ourselves. This is about Christ being formed in us. It is formation over perfection. If life has knocked us down, if our flesh keeps asking for control back, or if we have been mistaking the tension for punishment, this episode will help us see that God may be using the very place we want to escape to form something deeper in us.

Jesus in your Health: Becoming a Temple Keeper

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394029/fan_mail/new] A lot of Christians have left Jesus out of their health and don’t even realize it. In this episode, I break down what it actually means to be a Temple Keeper. We talk about why the body is not separate from discipleship, why health is not vanity, why the weight is not the point, and how food, movement, sleep, stress, and daily stewardship become worship when they are surrendered to God. If we have been stuck in the same cycle of starting over, chasing the scale, stress eating, or acting like this part of our life is optional, this episode will help us see health differently. This is not another diet. This is discipleship. This is a new way to worship.

Jesus or the Enemy | Who's Driving Your Health?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394029/fan_mail/new] What is really driving your choices right now. Fear or love? In this episode, I break down the two operating systems so many of us are living from. Fear or love. We talk about how fear distorts food, movement, rest, control, comfort, and even the way we try to steward our health. We also walk through why counterfeit comfort never satisfies, how fear can hide underneath seemingly “good” behaviors, and what it looks like to actually move from love instead. If you have felt stuck in overeating, under-moving, fear of failure, fear of rejection, control, burnout, or the constant pressure to hold everything together, this episode will help you get underneath the behavior and ask what root it is really coming from.

Do You Really Believe Jesus Can Heal YOU?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394029/fan_mail/new] In this episode, I go into the deeper issue behind healing, belief, and the agreements we make with hopelessness without even realizing it. We talk about how self-identity, surrender, stewardship, and biblical belief all shape the way we live, pray, and respond when we are hurting. We also walk through why belief is more than mental agreement, how faith and healing work together, and why aligning your actions with what you say you believe matters so much.  If you have felt stuck in fear, chronic struggle, self-defeating language, or hopelessness, this episode will challenge you to stop agreeing with lies and start living in agreement with God’s truth.  Connect With Us Free Temple Keeper Guide: https://thetemplekeepers.com/guide [https://thetemplekeepers.com/guide] Temple Keeper Academy: https://thetemplekeepers.com/online-academy [https://thetemplekeepers.com/online-academy] Apply for 1-on-1 Coaching: https://thetemplekeepers.com/one-on-one-coaching [https://thetemplekeepers.com/one-on-one-coaching] Instagram (Matthew): https://www.instagram.com/godfoodguy/ [https://www.instagram.com/godfoodguy/] Instagram (Leah): https://www.instagram.com/leah.headden/ [https://www.instagram.com/leah.headden/] Website: https://thetemplekeepers.com/ [https://thetemplekeepers.com/] Chapters 00:00 Understanding Healing and Belief 05:46 The Power of Agreements and Self-Identity 06:14 Understanding Biblical Belief 08:51 Faith and Healing: A Deeper Look 13:03 The Role of Faith in Healing 17:04 Surrender and Stewardship in Healing 21:30 Aligning Actions with Belief 25:41 Confronting Hopelessness and Embracing Healing 28:41 The Power of Prayer and Affirmation  #healing  #faith  #christianliving Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394029/support]

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394029/fan_mail/new] Do you start eating and feel like you can't stop? In this episode, I unpacks the biblical warning of surfeiting and how overeating, overconsumption, cravings, stress, and self-focus can weigh down both the body and the spirit. I walks through the physiological side of overeating, the emotional and spiritual roots behind cravings, and the practical path back to God’s design through nourishment, movement, fasting, and surrender. If you have felt stuck in cycles of overeating, brain fog, stress eating, insulin resistance, or spiritual heaviness, this message will help you see the root more clearly.
