In this episode, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Jan Shirey, the president of Lost and Found Ministries. We delved into the profound topic of healing from past traumas and the importance of addressing the wounds that can hinder our spiritual growth. Jan shared her personal journey of overcoming pain and addiction, highlighting how she found freedom through her faith and community support.We discussed the significance of understanding our spiritual design—spirit, soul, and body—and how the enemy gains access to our lives through wounds and sin. Jan emphasized the importance of bringing our brokenness before the Lord and the cleansing power of tears. She also shed light on the common barriers women face in their healing journey, such as fear, shame, and control, and how these can manifest in our thoughts and behaviors.One of the key takeaways from our conversation was the necessity of community and accountability in the healing process. Jan's curriculum, "Boot Camp: Winning the Battle for Your Soul," provides a structured approach to help women identify and break free from the lies and agreements they've made with the enemy.We also touched on the importance of forgiveness as both a decision and a process, and how unresolved pain can lead to bitterness and affect all areas of our lives. Jan's insights into the spiritual battle we face and the grace available to us through Christ were both enlightening and encouraging.This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone seeking to understand their spiritual design and find true freedom in Christ. I hope it blesses you as much as it did me.Connect with Lost and Found https://lostandfoundministries.org/Instagram @lfmcharleston00:00:00 - Introduction and Purpose of the Episode00:00:38 - Introducing Jan Shirey and Her Ministry00:01:31 - Boot Camp: Winning the Battle for Your Soul00:02:24 - The Importance of Addressing Past Traumas00:03:14 - Jan's Personal Journey to Freedom00:05:01 - The Role of the Church and Community in Healing00:06:28 - Making Peace with Your Past: Jan's Turning Point00:08:24 - The Power of Tears and Emotional Release00:09:01 - The Process of Healing and Vulnerability00:10:45 - The Importance of Community and Shared Experiences00:12:01 - Understanding Spirit, Soul, and Body00:14:02 - The Enemy's Access Points: Wounds and Sin00:16:04 - Distinguishing Between Spirit and Soul00:18:09 - The Impact of Unhealed Wounds on Choices00:20:09 - Recognizing Overblown Reactions as Red Flags00:22:00 - Barriers to Breaking Bondage: Fear and Anxiety00:24:01 - The Importance of Monitoring Thoughts00:26:10 - The Role of Peace and Unity in Healing00:28:10 - Identifying Patterns in Thoughts and Emotions00:30:05 - The Process of Forgiveness00:32:17 - Contending for Healing and Expecting Opposition00:34:25 - The Grace Over the Healing Process00:36:25 - The Enemy's Tactics: Rejection and Perception00:38:24 - Common Wounds Among Women: Fear, Shame, and Control00:41:32 - The Genesis Story: Understanding Agreement with the Enemy00:44:43 - The Collateral Damage of Bitterness and Anger00:45:57 - The Connection Between Rejection and Critical Nature
Hey there friend! Join me as we uncover the hidden roots of sin that can unknowingly shape our lives. This episode dives into the journey of spiritual growth and the production of good fruit, drawing from scriptures in Galatians and John. Blurred Line Roots of Sin and Generational Bondage Walking in the Spirit The Process of Producing Good Fruit Journey of Spiritual Growth Connecting Through ConversationsScripture References Romans 7:18 MSG17-20 But I need something more! For if I know the law but still can’t keep it, and if the power of sin within me keeps sabotaging my best intentions, I obviously need help! I realize that I don’t have what it takes. I can will it, but I can’t do it. I decide to do good, but I don’t really do it; I decide not to do bad, but then I do it anyway. My decisions, such as they are, don’t result in actions. Something has gone wrong deep within me and gets the better of me every time. Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, And [d]desperately wicked; Who can know it? the Lord, search the heart,I test the [e]mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings. Galatians 5:1616 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.John 15vs5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you[b] will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
The Testimony This epsiode is a journey through a dark valley in my life. You may find yourself in a season where you are also facing some giants and I pray in this converstaion you find encouragement and truth to claim victory in your own spiritual battle. This episode shares the profound shifts in my faith over the past year. Growing up in a Christian environment, I was a "comfortable Christian," but through divorce I learned the dangers of small compromises and the entanglement of sin. I realized the significance of repentance and the miraculous power of God's love and grace. His presence changed it all for me, and His heart longs to meet you where you're at. I pray you hear His voice and heart for you today. - Encountering God's Transformative Love - True Testimony and God's Faithfulness - Finding God Through Trials - Navigating Wilderness and Spiritual Formation - Surrendering to God's Transformative Love - Journey of Spiritual Detox and Growth - Breaking the Chains of Sin - Experiencing Overflow of God's Love - Experiencing God's Transformative Grace - Unveiling Divine Purpose and Preparation - Inviting Transformation Through Obedience - Encountering the Presence - God's Work and Endurance
