E900 | Why Did God Let This Happen?
We conclude this three-part series with the biggest question of all: What do we do when we feel that God has betrayed us? John, Blaine, and Allen reveal how the enemy wants us to embrace the lie that God can't be trusted—the same tactic he used with Adam and Eve in Eden. Discover why it's essential to remember the issue isn't taking place in a neutral environment, how that affects our interpretation of the betrayal, and a surprisingly helpful practice for restoring union with God.Show Notes: The first two episodes of this series can be found here: Part 1 ( https://wildatheart.org/podcasts/wild-at-heart/e898-when-youre-betrayed/ ), Part 2 ( https://wildatheart.org/podcasts/wild-at-heart/e899-betrayal-by-others/ ).

E898 | When You're Betrayed
Our stories borrow their shape from the Gospel story, and the Gospel story is rife with betrayal. In this world, all of us will experience some form of betrayal. Our ability to process and recover from it will define the health of our families, churches, communities, and hearts. John, Blaine, and Allen kick off this series by describing the three major forms of betrayal, how it differs from ordinary hurt, the erosion of the fabric of trust, and what to do when you're betrayed.Show Notes: The Michelle Mays talk on betrayal can be found at michellemays.com/resources/learn/#booksKeywords: betrayal, spiritual wounding, healing, relationships, friendships, work, Christianity_______________________________________________There is more.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

E897 | Things Get Harder the More We Follow God?
When we pursue growth in our relationship with God and others, the expectation is life will get better—not harder. Yet greater maturity often comes with greater opposition. If we believe hard things are bad, then we'll assume either we're blowing it or God is holding out. That's not true. The answer isn't to make a peace treaty with what's coming against you to return to simpler, easier times. In this pivotal message, John and Allen unveil who Threshold Guardians are, what their strategy is, and how God invites us into greater intimacy with him in the challenges we face.Keywords: Hardships, Relationships with God, Christianity, Spiritual Maturity_______________________________________________There is more.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?
