  • The Power of Releasing Hidden Hurts: Joe Dobbins & Aimee Byrd

    The Power of Releasing Hidden Hurts: Joe Dobbins & Aimee Byrd
    Oct 3 2024
    This week, we'll hear from two influential voices in the Christian community, Joe Dobbins and Aimee Byrd. Joe Dobbins, pastor of Twin Rivers Church in St. Louis, Missouri, and author of Hope After Church Hurt, shares he and his wife's painful experiences with their church and the healing process that followed. His insights provide a roadmap for those struggling with similar wounds, offering steps toward restoring faith and re-engaging with the church. Following Joe's story, our next guest is speaker, blogger, and podcaster Aimee Byrd. Aimee opens up about her lifelong journey of searching for belonging in the church, and how she learned through trials and painful hurts that God wants us to ask questions, and even though we might be scarred by those who twist truths to facilitate how they think we should live, we can find our way back to God and what He says about how we were meant to live.

It created a distrust for people, and it did cause us to question our place in the community…God is omnipresent, meaning He's everywhere that we are at all times. But just because you are in His presence doesn't mean you have entered His presence. To enter God's presence, meaning to receive Him, your heart has to be open. And pain had caused my heart to close." - Joe Dobbins "Healing begins by knocking your feelings off the throne of your heart and allowing Jesus to retake His proper place." - Joe Dobbins "Forgiveness is never a one-time event. It's a daily exercise, that every time you remember how they hurt you, you're going to have to decide to release it and forgive it again. And eventually what happens is that practice causes the decision in your head to move into the feelings in your heart. And if you'll do it enough, you'll eventually find the pain you've been carrying from rejection is replaced with God's peace." - Joe Dobbins "Jesus said, 'Follow me,' not follow my followers. And I believe that a lot of church hurt is wrapped up when our expectations are not met from a person we esteem, or see that they should be further along in their journey." - Joe Dobbins "I think it's interesting today how Christians are really known more for the points they want to make. But yet Jesus was known for asking questions…the church would do well today to remember listening is loving, because often we too quickly jump to trying to tell people what they need to do before we understand the pain they've been through." - Joe Dobbins "I still had this vigor to learn more about God and who He was. And I started learning like, Oh, there's a word for that. It's called theology, just the study of who God is. And that fascinated me." - Aimee Byrd "I was traveling all over the place, meeting so many different women in the church, and realizing that there are many like me who are struggling as thinking women in the church who want to be more engaged theologically, who want to get into deeper Bible study, to be able to be invested in the whole heart of the church." - Aimee Byrd "There were so many things I needed to die to myself in this process of disillusionment and healing. But you look to the left and you look to the right and you realize there's a whole crowded underground of people doing the same thing, and that's what church should be." - Aimee Byrd "God wants us to come with our questions." - Aimee Byrd "We're here to tell our stories, to hold one another's stories. And as we look at our wounds and the scars as they're healing, they bear testimony to where we've been, what we're going through, where Christ has met us." - Aimee Byrd ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

  • Harmony and Hope: Facing Life's Best and Worst Moments with Josh Baldwin and Diane Chew

    Harmony and Hope: Facing Life's Best and Worst Moments with Josh Baldwin and Diane Chew
    Sep 26 2024
    Sometimes life hands us a situation, or an experience, that we never expected. Maybe it's something exciting, like a new relationship or adventure, but sometimes it can be full of sorrow, too, like the loss of a job we loved or an unexpected illness that derails everything. But it's in those moments that we find out who we are, and what God has made us capable of, giving us an opportunity to really show up for others. This week, we sit down with Josh Baldwin, a worship leader, songwriter, and artist with over two decades of experience. Josh opens up about walking through a challenging season of mental health in his family, and how he turned to music for comfort and direction from the Lord, which he now uses to bring comfort and peace to his listeners. Later, we'll hear from Diane Chew, known as Dementia Coach Diane, a life coach and caregiver for her husband, Ben, who has Lewy Body Dementia. Diane shares practical tips for dementia care and emphasizes self-care for caregivers, drawing from her experiences of over fifty years with Ben and the challenges of his cognitive decline. She finds solace and community through social media and discusses the crucial role of faith in navigating these challenges.

I was just responding and reacting to what felt like a constant emergency." - Diane Chew "I needed somehow to process everything that was happening every day. I wanted to find the blessings, but I was often trapped in my own head, and I was isolated and alone and scared and I didn't know what to do." - Diane Chew "We have three choices in life when we face circumstances that we didn't expect. We can change them, we can accept them, or we can suffer." - Diane Chew "It takes constant practice to look for the blessings, and to stay connected to something bigger than my thoughts and feelings." - Diane Chew "It takes stubbornness, I think, to not go down with the ship. I am not going to give up my life. Ben wouldn't want me to do that." - Diane Chew "The Holy Spirit will give us the wisdom to know what I just need to let go of, and what I can act on, and to give me that strength and faith to act when I can and let go when I can't." - Diane Chew ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
