Breaking Free of Grief

A lack of peace and assurance about life brings people to Rock House Center for help and seems common throughout the body of Christ. It’s what many Christians hoped their faith would provide after salvation but has been elusive. In this podcast we discuss how this can happen and how to engage God in a way that can help believers experience more of the supernatural peace we all want from our faith. 

Peace requires trust in something that is trustworthy.

No matter how much you may want peace and work to get it, scripture says our peace is limited to the amount of truth that’s in our heart about the character of God and Jesus. And false beliefs we have about God and Jesus are a barrier to peace. In this podcast we look at the truth we must know and the lies we must reject to have the peace God wants for ALL His people.

Internal peace is precious and worth fighting to protect or restore.

Loss of peace from a situation or internal battle is best resolved by addressing the root cause. Solving the problem at the source can protect you from experiencing the negative feelings when the same circumstance reappears. In this podcast we discuss how to win the battle for your peace. It’s a battle worthy to be fought.

Christians often struggle to have authentic feelings of awe, love, or reverence for Christ. There is plenty of justification in scripture to revere Christ, but the feelings may seem contrived to comply with scripture’s call for a heartfelt response to the truth. Thankfully, God wired our hearts to respond to the character and story of Christ. In this podcast we connect you with the story of Christ in a way that engages your heart.

Why would our choices ever be different from our will? Yet they quite frequently are. Most of us have asked “Why didn’t I…?” or “Why can’t I just get myself to do that?”. Often followed by the realization: “I know better than that!”. The question of why our decisions are often not aligned with our will is the topic for this podcast. We discuss what drives our choices and how God can help us make decisions that are more consistent with who we want to be in life.

Blaming someone for the way they made you feel gives them power over how your life feels. The notion that others make us feel a certain way is a misunderstanding of the origin of unwanted feelings and how to address them. Thankfully, God made us so we can have peace no matter what we encounter in life. But we need to understand how to engage Him to exclusively depend on His trustworthy divine character rather than people and situations for our peace. In this podcast we provide the necessary understanding of the origin of feelings and the pathway to supernatural peace God provides all His children.

Is God real? In the past when people encountered God and Jesus, there were always miracles. Unnatural events only possible by divine agency. In current times it’s no different, except that miracles also happen within His people in personal and concrete ways. This podcast is about miraculous experiences that confirm God’s existence, His love for us, and His presence in our lives.

Jesus came to free us from guilt and shame. Many Christians accept that as true but still have a hard time breaking free of negative feelings from mistakes and difficult experiences in their past. In this podcast we help the listener understand why clouds from the past still linger and how to break free of them.

We are born into eternity by God. He truly is our Father and has a special love for us. All His children yearn for that special love, whether they know it or not. Understanding and leaning into this truth is the foundation for peace despite the conditions of our lives. In this podcast we explain this wonderful truth and how to bring it into your life in a tangible way.

Food is for the body and God is for the soul.  When food is used to comfort instead of going to God for the divine comfort we need, it can lead to an unhealthy dependency in which food begins to control us. When that happens, we’re drawn to food to feed what is really a spiritual hunger for peace. This leads to eating more than we need for our bodies, which can threaten our health and rob our peace. In this podcast, we offer God’s pathway to getting right with food.
