Healing from Church Hurt: Letting Go of Bitterness Without Losing Wisdom

Heart Check Wednesday: Check Your Heart Before You Check People

Before we point out what's wrong with everyone else, have we allowed God to examine what's happening within us? In this week's Heart Check Wednesday, we're talking about the importance of heart posture, self-awareness, and allowing God to reveal the areas of our lives that still need healing. Using Psalm 139:23-24 as our foundation, we explore: ✨ How hurt can quietly change your heart ✨ The danger of carrying offense ✨ Why self-examination is a sign of spiritual maturity ✨ The difference between conviction and condemnation ✨ How God transforms us from the inside out Sometimes the greatest breakthrough doesn't come from someone else changing—it comes from allowing God to work in us. Join us for this honest conversation and heart check as we invite God to search, heal, and transform us. Because growth begins when we stop asking God to fix everyone else and start allowing Him to work on us.
