How Emotional Wounds Distort Your View of God

Unhealed emotional wounds can distort the way we see God. Think about it. If you've been abandoned, you may struggle to trust that God will stay. If you've been rejected, you may struggle to believe God truly accepts you. If you've been betrayed, you may struggle to surrender because trust feels dangerous. The problem isn't God. The problem is that pain becomes a filter. Please like, subscribe, download, comment and share with at least 1 person.

The Stories You Tell Yourself

#Emotional Healing #LiesWeTellOurselves #ChristianDiscipline #AskMinisterYoPodcast Welcome back to The Ask Minister Yo Podcast. Today I want to talk about something that has the power to shape your entire life. The stories you tell yourself. Every person listening to me has a story running in the background of their mind. Sometimes those stories sound like: I'm not enough. Nobody chooses me. I always get hurt. I have to earn love. God forgot about me. What's interesting is these stories usually begin with a painful experience. The experience may have been real. But the conclusion we formed may not be.

Hidden Reasons Why Believers Stop Growing

#SpiritualGrowth #SpiritualIntimacy #AskMinisterYoPodcast #YolandaBethea On today's episode, Minister Yo shared that: Believers stop growing spiritually because of: * Fear of failure (afraid to try) or disappointment (unanswered prayer) * Offense or unresolved hurt-especially Church hurt * Inconsistency without accountability-no one to disciple them * Isolation-Trying to grow alone * Lack of focus-looking at how other’s living and should focus on what God told them Ex. Jesus told Peter to feed His sheep. Peter asked Jesus what John was going to do. Key Scripture * Proverbs 4:23 – Guard your heart * Hebrews 12:1 – Weights vs sins Reframe God doesn’t expose these things to shame us — He exposes them to heal us. God shows us other believers faults so we can restore them in private-not so we can expose them to the world. God wants to protect the sheep-not scatter them.

Salvation vs Discipleship: What's the Difference?

#Salvation #Discipleship #SpiritualGrowth #yolandabethea Many believers stop growing because no one ever taught them the difference between being saved and being discipled. Teaching Points * Salvation is a moment; discipleship is a journey * Jesus commanded discipleship, not decisions only * Maturity is developed, not downloaded Key Scripture * Matthew 28:19–20 – “Make disciples…” * Luke 9:23 – Daily discipleship Reframe Discipleship teaches you how to walk with God daily. Affirmation “I choose growth over comfort. I am becoming a disciple, not just a believer.” Spiritual Exercise * Reflect: What has my spiritual life mainly consisted of — sermons or structure? * Write one small daily discipleship habit you can begin this week Closing Discipleship is an invitation, not a burden.
