Are you more concerned about what you can get from Jesus rather than actually being with Jesus? If so, then you might be missing the whole point of what it means to be changed.

We all put on masks. But the greater the difference between our masks and our real selves, the greater our struggles become. This episode is all about how to resolve that tension. How do we relieve the tension and stress of constantly hiding ourselves away and pretending to have it all together? 

We believe that lasting life can happen for your good and for God's glory.

What if what we think peace is just a false peace? What if the way we think we find peace is backward? 

Peace is more than just the absence of conflict; it is the presence of wholeness. In order to find restoration, healing, and recovery, we often have to push through the difficult things. Just because things seem calm doesn't mean that things are the way they are supposed to be. To find true healing and restoration, we must lean into things that don't always feel peaceful.

How do we find serenity in the middle of the storm? This week, we turn to a prayer that many have found to be a help in their journeys. We unpack the serenity prayer, and it's spiritual import to our daily lives. So often, we struggle to deal with our anxiety or navigate the difficult situations we find ourselves in. Finding peace can allow us to move forward. 

God, grant me the serenity

to accept the things I cannot change,

the courage to change the things I can,

and the wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time,

enjoying one moment at a time;

accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;

taking, as Jesus did,

this sinful world as it is,

not as I would have it;

trusting that you will make all things right

if I surrender to your will;

so that I may be reasonably happy in this life

and supremely happy with you forever in the next.

Amen.

-- Reinhold Niebuhr

The person we trust most is often ourselves. What if we can't trust ourselves as much as we thought? What if we actually need to surrender control to avoid the outcomes it seems like we are headed toward? We have been listening to our own wisdom, and so far it has not gotten us to where we thought it would. This week we look at the freedom that comes with surrendering our lives to Jesus and experiencing the grace that He has for us. You can experience change, just not alone.

A recent survey of 21,000 adults in 28 countries found that 72% of people surveyed said they want their lives to "change significantly." That same survey also found that 86% of those respondents said they want the world to "change significantly." So if that's the case, why are things still the same?

Doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results. How do we stop the cycle we are in? If we are stuck in addiction or in the past, we might be behaving in a way that is going to lead to results we don't want. This week we talk about some of the keys to putting a stop to the insanity and turning around.

No one sets out to end up in a bad place, so how do we end up in places we would never want to go. We get comfortable with how we are living but what if we are comfortable with things that are leading us bad places. When our habits and cycles are unhealthy we need to own the fact that we are not going in a good direction.

Pride can take many forms. We might not think of ourselves as prideful, but if we are in a place where we are stuck, it just might be one of the things holding us in place. A place of humility is a place of learning and growing. It's a place where our hearts are ready to receive what God has for us. 

We believe that lasting life can happen for your good and for God's glory.

What kind of fruit is your life producing? Is our life constantly gravitating towards addictions or hurtful cycles? If we have ongoing problems, we need to examine what the root of our problems are.

We believe that lasting life can happen for your good and for God's glory.

In this episode of The Rooted Podcast, we discuss the importance of change and healing. Making the choice to change is difficult, but staying stagnant also has its challenges. We encourage you to have an honest conversation with yourself and confront any barriers to growth. Remember, both choices are tough, but one leads to hope and the life we desire.

Breaking cycles, finding healing, and making life change. We believe that God can bring about change in your life for your good and His glory.

No matter if you are struggling with an addiction or past hurt there is help and healing but that can't happen until we start addressing things openly. I hope you are willing to join me on this journey.

 Why is change so difficult, and why do we resist it so much? Even if change is for the better, we still avoid it because of our morbid attachments to what was.
