return to joy

The world is an anxious place and growing more anxious. Why? What is God's provision and path to help us live above the fear, in union with Him, no matter what life looks like?

For this 2-part discussion I invited my friend Mandy Nelson to discuss her life-long journey with anxiety, what she is learning, and how it has led her to becoming a mentor who helps others navigate fears and find the peace God promises us. It's a topic I need to engage personally, wrestling with anxiety myself at times.

Mandy Nelson is a highly gifted communicator, teacher and mentor who also leads Socratic Scripture Studies and Biblical Dream Interpretation classes where she is Co-Director of Empowering Ranch with her husband Scott Morin. Find our more about Mandy.

Are you living life feeling at a deficit? Always needing your cup refilled by approval, affirmation, and validation? Scripture has a solution for that. In this episode, Gabrielle shares how a mindset of lack has shown up in her life and discusses how to walk out in the fullness of Christ practically. 

Scriptures mentioned: 

"And now out of his fullness we are fulfilled! And from him we receive grace heaped upon more grace!"
John 1:16  TPT

 Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is his love! How enduring and inclusive it is! Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding—this extravagant love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God! 
Ephesians 3:18-19 TPT

"Now arise in the fullness of your union with the lord" 
Philippians 4:1 TPT

"And our own completeness is now found in him. We are completely filled with God as Christ’s fullness overflows within us. He is the Head of every kingdom and authority in the universe!" 
Colossians 2:10 TPT

"Fire is the way to test the purity of silver and gold, but the character of a man is tested by giving him a measure of fame." 
Proverbs 27:21 TPT
