WRAP Yourself in the Word
In this episode, Joni helps listeners see that spiritual growth doesn’t stop at awareness. It continues through obedience. When God asks us to take a small step of faith, He’s not testing our strength but inviting us to experience Him. As we learn to obey, repent, and surrender, we discover that peace is not the absence of tension, but the fruit of trusting God in the middle of it.

In Episode 69 of WRAP Yourself in the Word, Joni reminds listeners that faith was never meant to be a solo project. She explores how true healing often happens in community—when we allow others to pray with us, speak truth over us, and help us carry what’s too heavy to hold alone. Through Scripture and personal reflection, this episode invites you to see asking for help not as weakness, but as worship and obedience to God’s design for growth and grace.

In Episode 68 of WRAP Yourself in the Word, Joni explores why some thoughts just won’t let go—even when we’ve prayed, journaled, and spoken truth over them. She explains how recurring thoughts can signal deeper heart issues such as fear, control, or unbelief, and how recognizing, responding, and redeeming them through Scripture leads to lasting transformation. Listeners are invited to slow down, trust God’s process of healing, and let Him “look under the hood” to reveal what’s really draining their peace.

This episode is a real-talk look at our thought life. Our thoughts reveal what is stored in our hearts, and most of what we think is repeated so often that it shapes what we believe about God, ourselves, and others. Scripture shows that if we do not deal with the negative or ugly parts of our thinking, we will not grow and may even drift from God. Transformation begins with surrender, trust, and repentance. Listeners are urged to keep using the Thought Audit, the Thought Filter, and the Word of God to replace repetitive negative thoughts with truth so that Jesus — not the flesh, fear, or...

In this episode, we learn how to “change the thought filter” using Philippians 4:8 as God’s standard for what thoughts are allowed to stay in our minds. We explore how subtle, almost-truth thoughts can still drain peace when they aren’t filtered through what is true, pure, and praiseworthy. This practice of recognizing, responding, and redeeming thoughts is how we begin to renew the mind and walk in the peace God intends.
