103. From Guilt to Grace: Beating Shame & Finding Freedom in Jesus with Brittney Deckerhoff

Hey friend!

In this episode of the Abundant Women Collective podcast, Samantha Semans and Brittany Deckerhoff discuss the topic of shame and its impact on women.

Brittney is a fun-loving Bible teacher who breaks down spiritual truths, bringing power and freedom to women of all ages. Her contagious humor and wit lay the perfect foundation for the Holy Spirit to do deep work in the hearts of her audience. Brittney currently working alongside Let’s Echo. A ministry that equips and empowers women speakers.

On today's episode, we explore the difference between guilt and shame, the paralyzing effect of shame, and the importance of finding freedom and purpose. We also emphasize the role of community, repentance, and partnering with Jesus to overcome shame and live out one's purpose.

Takeaways

• Shame is an intensely painful feeling of believing that we are flawed and unworthy of love and belonging.
• Guilt is holding something we've done or failed to do against our values and feeling psychological discomfort.
• Shame can paralyze us and keep us from moving forward in what God has for us.
• Repentance and partnering with Jesus are essential for overcoming shame and living out one's purpose.
• Community plays a crucial role in uplifting and reminding us of who God made us to be, helping us overcome shame and fear.
• Sharing our stories and opening our mouths allows Jesus to set us free and use our experiences for good.

I can't wait for you to listen to this conversation and even find freedom from any shame that may be holding you back!

Until next time,

Sam
