The “believe in yourself and accomplish your dreams” is probably one of the top, if not the top, supreme laws of personal growth. So why do we as believers struggle with this? Because we all know ourselves. We know, as followers of Christ, that the amount of belief in ourselves is not where the...

14. Letting Go of Control: Stop White Knuckling Your Life
ANTHEM
Lets be honest… one of the most frustrating responses in all of Christendom is when a well-meaning soul gives you the advice “you just need to give it to God” when you reveal to them that you have anxiety or worry about something that is happening or has happened. They mean well… they really do, but when you are in the thick of it, that piece of advice feels so dismissive. Although, it is the right advice, often we do not have the biblical steps to actually release control of our fears and anxiety. In this episode Kyle and Cassie discuss how to stop white knuckling your life by...

The number one issue we talk about with every one of our clients with few exceptions is this lie we tell ourselves that “I am not enough” This statement may be one of the most debilitating thoughts that we can have because it questions one of the deepest core belief that we contain which is, “what is my purpose?” and “do I matter?” There are three main factors discussed: 1. Identity 2. Performance Idol 3. Comparison Trap and much more! Join Bread & Wine Community .

Today, Kyle Raney will give us all some encouragement today through this faith-filled episode.
First and foremost Kyle reminds us that we are citizens of Heaven; our allegiance is in Jesus. Our demeanor and our politics have to be informed through Christ by prayer and knowing our citizenship. Kyle brings so many golden nuggets of truth in this episode including:
-
Engaging in our citizenship in America has to be informed by our citizenship from Heaven.
-
We have more in common with someone in the opposite party who is a fellow Citizen of Heaven than a person within your own party.
-
As Believers, we have the GOOD NEWS to share- not bitterness or separation.
-
When we idolize someone or a political party or organization more than Jesus, then we will ultimately demonize those on the other side.
-
When we idolize, we will ultimately be disappointed.
-
Separation from culture is not the answer, nor is becoming like the culture.
-
Us vs. Them Mentally is against the Word of God (Jeremiah 29:4-7)
-
DISTINCT yourself in the culture
-
Instead of opposition, GRAND OPPORTUNITY
