Just over two years ago, right before she married her husband James, Mandy got sick and has been fighting for my health ever since. She shares about how her life has drastically changed including stepping down from a job she loved as an associate youth pastor at Life.Church and speaks to God's faithfulness through it all. This episode will encourage your heart no matter what season of life you find yourself in.

Faith Story (3:34)

Mandy shares how her story is quite unique in that she doesn't remember making the decision to follow Jesus because she was so young but she does remember wanting to make sure she was following Jesus and kept making the decision to follow God. She talks about how there's never been a place she didn't know Jesus. Mandy says it doesn't mean she hasn't had up and downs but she's known him her whole life and has some great memories including the day she was baptized.

Embracing the Unexpected (7:548) 

Over two years ago Mandy's life went completely different than she ever expected. A couple of weeks before her wedding she got a diagnosis of mono. She was still able to marry her husband James and go on her honeymoon and rather than getting better she seemed to present more symptoms. Mandy was nearly married, working full-time and barely functioning. She had to step away from her job as an associate youth pastor at Life.Church in Oklahoma City and felt like she was loosing her purpose. Mandy says circumstances were so difficult but at some point she felt like she was going to die.

Embracing Rather Than Endure (14:00)

Mandy shares how she began to share her story on YouTube. She nearly didn't upload the first episode but it's been great to see how God's used her channel to give hope to people. Her love for nutrition and wellness has exploded and she's been able to help even more people.

Ministry Online  (17:36)

Mandy talks about technology and how even though she isn't able to go to church she is still able to serve online.

Finding Joy In Transitions (21:14)

Finding things to do that she really finds joy in was important to her. Even though she wasn't able do those things very often she was challenged to make sure she was finding her contentment in Christ. Whenever you seek Jesus you'll find joy and contentment. She's always had a relationship with Jesus she's had to fall on her face to seek Him in ways she never has.

Chronic Illness (25:00)

Mandy opens up about her diagnosis from Mayo Clinic. Initially she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome and other smaller things that fall underneath that but she's grateful to God for recent discoveries that are helping give her functional medicine doctor more insight to what my be going on.

She has taught at the college level for over 20 years inspiring her students to believe in themselves and discover their true purpose. Connie has also coached people for years helping them to hear God’s voice and giving people tools to re-wire their brains so they can control negative thoughts.

Faith Story (4:12) 

Connie's been a teacher most of her life teaching at the college level, youth group, children and women. She says she used to struggle with low self-esteem because grew up with an alcoholic father and didn't feel valued. Her family didn't attend church and in 5th grade a friend from school invited her to VBS when she invited Jesus into her life. She ended up going to church with that family because of them including her and welcoming them into their home. 

Impacting Others (7:50) 

Connie talks about how right she's passionate about helping people break through roadblocks that's keeping them from their God-given purpose. It doesn't matter what age someone is, they're not too old or too young to have a purpose. Letting God shift and turn us in a new direction isn't as scary as it seems. It's worth taking a leap of faith and opening ourselves up to God's plan. 

Getting Unstuck (12:50)

Connie says she helps people get unstuck and a lot of times people don't even know they're stuck. There could be an experience in childhood that's impacting them as adults. Through conversational prayer God shows up and helps reveal what's impacting the person. 

Neuroplasticity & The Brain (15:40)

God is our creator and he knows exactly how he created our brains. Thanks to research done in neuroplasticity and brain science, we can change our brain and our brains change because of the way we think. Sometimes we have to go deeper because the brain is wired and will take the path of least resistance but we can rewire them.

On today's episode of She Walks In Truth, author and speaker Jenn Baxter joins the show again to chat about our words and how what we say and think makes an impact on our lives. She shares about how the Lord has opened her eyes to what speaking truth over our lives is and what it isn't.

Carrie Robaina is a podcaster and entrepreneur wholeheartedly believes in living with purpose. One of her greatest joys is inspiring and encouraging others to live a healthy, joy-filled and intentional life in Christ. In this episode we tackle what it means to take up your cross and following Jesus based on Matthew 16:24-28. Grab your Bible, pen and journal and let's dive in! 

Phylicia Masonheimer is an author, speaker, and founder of Driven Women. She teaches strong-hearted women how to follow Christ’s call in work, home, and the world. She writes about the Bible, productivity, and sexuality on her website. She’s also written a book called, “Christian Cosmo: The Sex Talk You Never Had.” Today she joins the show to talk about the impact or pornography and erotica on woman as well as shares her testimony and how God is using her story to tell His story.

Faith Story (2:30) 

Phylicia shares her faith story. At the age 12 she discovered a neurotic novel at a garage sale and didn't know what it was or what sex was because she never had a sex. It started a struggle with pornography and sexual sin until her early 20s. It also impacted her walk. Now that she is free walks alongside other women who have the same experience. 

You're Not The Only One  (5:03) 

If you struggle with this...you're not alone. Phylicia shares how talking about sexuality is a continuous conversation; not a one thing at the age of 12. We talk about how the church is beginning to have these conversations which is encouraging. Wherever there is sin that is tied to sex there is shame because the enemy wants to twist sexuality as young as possible in order to hinder them from beginning it into the light. 

Not Only A Man's Issue (8:30)

This is something many women struggle with. Too often the church addresses as it as a man's issue when really the number of porn users who are women is 30-40% and the number of those addicted to erotica is the same. Sexual sin is a spiritual battle fought only by implementing many standards. Until you address the spiritual battle first. It's also important to remember it's a long-term battle. 

Parents Whose Kids Have Been Caught Using Porn (11:54)

The conversation about sex is never easy. The first thing you can do is make them feel secure and that you're not going to reject them...that you're going to help them. The initial step of revealing shame is the hardest. Start from a place of love and grace; especially if they're you're child. Then take a look at how Jesus dealt with shame. He always looked at them with love and grace before he told them to go and sin no more! For everything negative you take you need to replace it with a spiritual truth. 

Strong Women (15:34)

Phylicia says growing up that being a "strong woman" was equated with being a feminist. She honestly believed that in her teens. Felt that she needed to get married and find her identity in her husband. Through studying what Scripture said she discovered that being a strong woman is not negative as long as your strong will is bent to the will of God you can accomplish more for than ever managed. 

Breaking Free From Legalism (19:00)

A lot of times the Bible is used in support of being a wife and mother. In environments when we see a legalistic view of womanhood, it's supported without regard to culture context and all of Scripture. It's possible to honor your marriage, church, God's word          and to  still honor God in the strong way he made us. 

Breaking Free From Legalism (23:45)

After some blog readers sent Phylicia an article about how Christian men prefer women who don't have debt, are virgins and without tattoos. This article said women should not go to college and the husband would have to undo what they learned. Phylicia wrote a rebuttal article here because the article was not a good representation of Christ and the gospel.
