Pain or Love: The Two Lenses That Shape How We Perceive And Receive Love

In this episode, Joy reflects on how our experience of love can shift depending on the lens we’re looking through—whether from a place of pain or from a heart that has been healed. During her journey through postpartum depression, even “I love you” felt hard to believe. But as God restored her, she learned to love herself again—and with that healing came the ability to truly receive love from others. Grounded in 1 Corinthians 13, this message encourages every listener who feels unseen, unloved, or unworthy. When God heals the heart, the lens changes—and love becomes something you can finally recognize, receive, and believe.

What Does It Mean to Be Good? A Reflection on God’s Measure of Goodness

Have you ever considered the question 'what does it mean to be good?' In this episode, we meditate on this question as we look at Jesus' conversation in Matthew 12:22-37.
