    Fairy Tales and Other Realities
    May 1 2024

    “Once upon a time in a faraway land…” is the language of fairy tales, and through them, a longing in the heart can well up. In this episode, Stasi shares that we identify with these stories because they speak to both our story and our identity—our longing to be pursued, fought for, and loved, and the truth that we are more than meets the eye. God’s promise is the promise of restoration, and in him, we can both discover and be restored to who we are truly meant to be. There is transformative power in understanding one's true self in the heart of God, allowing his voice to be the ultimate authority in defining our identity.

Jennie shares her personal journey of falling in love with Jesus, her emotional awakening, and her fabulous new book, Untangle Your Emotions. She shares how emotional vulnerability and authenticity foster a closer relationship with God and community. Friends, there is great power in not walking alone in our pain, and because we are the focus of God’s affection, we can come to him honestly, where we will receive his compassion and mercy.

On today’s podcast, Stasi shares with her dear friends, anointed teachers and longtime followers of Christ, Lisa Beck and Cherie Snyder, some of their favorite parts of the retreat. Captivating is a timeless message and a sacred treasure hunt to come to know both Jesus more deeply and who we truly are in his love. God’s pursuit of our hearts is endless, and it is his desire that we know his freedom, healing, and love increasingly every day of our lives. Join us!
