    Ep 165: Conquering The Critic Within, Speaking Truth With Confidence, and Using Insecurity as Fuel with Bianca Juarez Olthoff
    Jul 29 2024
    Have you ever had feelings of insecurity and inadequacy? Ever felt like an imposter when surrounded by big names? Friends, today I get real about feeling like a fraud. That’s why I delve into the concept of imposter syndrome and that nagging inner voice that questions our abilities and worthiness. Some of the insights that I want you to walk away with are how to: Overcome insecurity and use it as a tool for growth Recognize your inner saboteur and challenge its negativity Use feelings of insecurity as a springboard for action, not self-deprecation I’ve had to battle with self-doubt and the voices in my head that whisper I’m not good enough. I want us to use self-doubt as a tool for growth, not a weapon of self-destruction. Ask yourself ‘If not me, then who? If not now, then when?’ Unleash your Godfidence to find your voice; The world needs your message! Let us know how you are taming your inner saboteur by tagging me @biancaolthoff. XO, B RESOURCES/LINKS Quote The beauty of that voice of insecurity is an earnest recognition that I'm not everything. But the dark side of that voice is when we let that voice convince us that we're nothing. Takeaways Imposter syndrome is common and can make us doubt our abilities and feel like frauds. The voice of insecurity can be used as a tool for self-reflection and growth. Humility is a choice and allows us to recognize our limitations while still using our gifts. We should remind ourselves that we are called to fulfill a purpose and use our voices. Asking 'If not me, then who? If not now, then when?' can help overcome self-doubt and take action. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here ⋇ Bianca’s new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option ⋇ The Grit Don’t Quit Bible Study is now available. ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors!

Yvonne Orji discovered her calling in comedy and uses humor to reach people. Yvonne's book, 'Bamboozled by Jesus,' shares her journey of faith and how she turned losses into wins.

  • Ep 163: Resetting Your Life, Breaking Free From Busyness, and Embracing Sabbath Rest with John Mark Comer

    Ep 163: Resetting Your Life, Breaking Free From Busyness, and Embracing Sabbath Rest with John Mark Comer
    Jul 15 2024
    Do you ever feel like you're going through the motions in your spiritual life? Many of us crave a deeper connection with God, but where do we start? Today, I chat with John Mark Comer about the power of spiritual disciplines, the practices that can unlock real transformation in your faith. We discuss the following key points: Spiritual Formation: John Mark Comer defines spiritual formation as the process of becoming someone with a greater capacity to receive and give love in relationship with God and others. Spiritual Disciplines: Discussed as "means of grace" that allow us to surrender to God's transformative work. They are practices, not performances, used to offer our bodies to God. Fasting: Highlighted as a way to let go of control and identify the things that control us. Sabbath: Examined as a challenge to our busy culture, teaching the importance of rest and stillness. Comer shares his personal experience with Sabbath and its transformative power in his life. The Three Enemies of Peace: Identified by the desert fathers and mothers as the world, the flesh, and the devil. These enemies hinder our ability to experience true peace. Following Jesus: Acknowledged as not an easy path, but the way to true joy and peace. Sin and Happiness: The impact of sin on our capacity for happiness is discussed. Trusting in God's definition of goodness is highlighted as essential. John Mark also shares his experience growing up in a church that emphasized the importance of Sabbath and how it has shaped his family's life. Let us know how you are deepening your relationship with God by tagging us @biancaolthoff and @johnmarkcomer. XO, B RESOURCES/LINKS Guest John Mark Comer https://johnmarkcomer.com/ Quote Working fasting into my regular life has been one of the most transformative things I've ever done. Takeaways Spiritual disciplines are means of grace that allow us to offer our bodies to God and surrender to His transformative work. Fasting helps us let go of control and reveals the things that control us. Sabbath challenges our culture of busyness and teaches us the importance of rest and stillness. Both fasting and Sabbath are practices that can lead to spiritual transformation and a deeper relationship with God. Sabbath is a transformative practice that can bring emotional and relational healing and shape the rhythm of our lives. The three enemies of peace identified by the desert fathers and mothers are the world, the flesh, and the devil. Following Jesus is not easy, but it is the way to true joy and peace. Sin sabotages our capacity for happiness by appealing to our God-given desire for happiness through deceptive ideas. Trusting in God's definition of goodness and following His pathway to life leads to freedom and a deeper experience of love and joy ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here ⋇ Bianca’s new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option ⋇ The Grit Don’t Quit Bible Study is now available. ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors!

In this episode, I share a teaching from the book of Mark given at The Father’s House Orange County. In it I delve into the theme of being marked for power and purpose. We are marked by God, and with this divine marking comes the power to overcome any bondage or sin. Some of the key takeaways are: Being Marked by God: Exploring the profound concept that each one of us is marked by God, instilled with a unique purpose and the power to fulfill it. Lessons from the book of Mark: The book of Mark presents a radical explanation of the supernatural power of Jesus and the power that we, as disciples, possess. The Authority of Jesus: I focus on the authority of Jesus, particularly his ability to cast out demons, showcasing the extent of his divine power. Confronting Spirits: I encourage you to recognize and confront the spirits that may be tormenting you, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging these challenges in order to overcome them. Embrace Your Calling: I urge you to embrace your calling with boldness and authority, stepping into the power that has been bestowed upon you. Friend, I want you to recognize the power within you, confront the spirits that torment you, and embrace your divine calling with boldness and authority.

    Jun 10 2024
    Have you ever experienced the pain of exclusion and rejection, particularly within the church? Gird your loins friends because in today’s enlightening conversation with Dr. Anita Phillips we discuss the issues of race, exclusion and rejection that are often overlooked within the church. We also talk about the role that our emotions play in having healthy conversations and the impact they can have in leading to greater understanding and acceptance. We discuss and dive deep into some key points that can help us reflect in our own experiences and attitudes like: Psychological safety and belonging Understanding the role of trauma and healing The need for humility, empathy, and intentional action in healing Regulating our emotions so that they don’t tell us what is right but our Bible does Dr. Anita’s words serve as a powerful reminder that the church, like any community, must continually strive for growth, inclusivity, and understanding. Through open conversations like this one, we can all learn, grow, and work towards a better future. Show Dr. Anita some love!

XO, B RESOURCES/LINKS Guest Dr. Anita Phillips Book: The Garden Within: Where the War with Your Emotions Ends and Your Most Powerful Life Begins In The Light with Dr Anita Phillips // The Betrayal Podcast Episode Quote The absence of humility is destroying us and it's necessary. Humility is the healing balm that is missing. Takeaways Experiencing rejection activates the same part of the brain as physical pain, highlighting the emotional toll of exclusion. Creating psychological safety and a sense of belonging is crucial for individuals to take risks and reach out to others. The church must address issues of race and create a safe space for healing and reconciliation. Curiosity about different perspectives and cultures can lead to a deeper understanding of God and a more inclusive church.
