Welcome to season two on the podcast. Season two will include a summer series coming out this week. As the summer time can be very busy for families, Jenni decided to change things up a little and bring on some friends to share some powerful testimonies through short monologues. Press play to hear what these monologues will be all about, and why were calling this series, "Flip the Script".
In this episode, Jenni shares scripture to battle through choosing forgiveness when our feelings are screaming the exact opposite. Both for the one who was deeply wounded and the one who inflicted the hurt, because one needs to offer forgiveness to someone else and the other needs to believe they are forgiven by God. We hope this episode empowers you to renew your mind as you navigate the difficult journey of forgiveness. Let's submit our feelings and pain to the supernatural power of God's Word.
In this episode, Jenni's husband, Andrew Bolton sits down with Jenni and her dad, Tony Jessee to discuss their journey of forgiveness. Thirteen years ago, Tony had an affair on his wife and chose to leave their family, and it sent Jenni on a very long journey of navigating forgiveness. They share the impact of this decision, the ups and downs of reconciling and rebuilding their relationship, and how they were able to with God's power chose forgiveness, both as the one who inflicted the hurt and the one who received the hurt. Bitterness and holding onto the pain of how people have wronged us eventually chokes us out too, and the enemy wants us to stay here so we don't step into all God has for us. This is why forgiveness is such a big deal, because it frees us from the power the person who hurt us has over us and protects us from the enemy ways of keeping us in bondage. We reference Lisa Terkeurst's new book, "Forgiving What You Can't Forget" many times because it is such a power house resource for all things forgiveness. She spent a thousand hours researching forgiveness in the Bible, and breaks it down so beautifully in this book. You can get a copy anywhere books are sold, and we are going to give away a copy this week on Instagram @herfightclub. The most powerful truth in forgiveness is that regardless if the person who hurt you choses reconciliation, you can still experience redemption through Jesus. You are not alone in all of the pain, heartache, guilt, and shame today. We hope this episode leaves you feeling seen in all your pain, and empowers you to look to God's Word on your journey to forgiveness in God's Power.
In this episode Jenni spends a moment praying for anyone who feels lost in the the darkness.
This message was birthed out of the dark season she has been walking through, and how through being still in God's presence and reading Psalm 43, He delivered her from her stuck place into a place of supernatural joy in His presence. Her circumstance didn't change, but the lens through which she viewed it did. She breaks down Psalm 43 verse by verse, and gives some context and history behind this moment in the psalmist life. She challenges us to not give up when the pain gets too much, but encourages us to let the pain be our catalyst to keep showing up and believing God isn't finished yet. She reminds us through many examples of characters in the Bible who walked through darkness, that powerful redemptions moments are birthed out of our most difficult battles. There is purpose in our suffering, and many times it leads us to the divine assignments God has for us in this life. No matter how dark it gets, Jenni reminds us that God will not waste the pain we are walking through.

If you or someone you know has ever wrestled with doubting your salvation this episode will leave you empowered and encouraged that your note alone and that there is hope for freedom in this battle. Jenna shares her journey of how she wrestled with consistent sin and how that played tricks on her mind to make her believe she wasn't saved. She talked about how she felt God needed space from her when she sinned, and that He was disappointed in her, but how He has helped her re-shape her view of God to a biblical perspective on His love and grace in her life. We talked through sanctification, and how we are a constant work in progress until heaven and God doesn't need our perfect performance, He wants our fellowship and sometimes that means pruning and repentance. On the other side of that sanctification, we produce the fruit of the Spirit. We discuss that the enemy's voice will always speak shame, guilt, and fear and we have to be vigilant to what voice we are basing our salvation on. God brings loving conviction and compassion that leads to repentance and restored fellowship. Jenna also encourages listeners to not ever compare their salvation story to anyone else, because God has a unique story for each person that God will use to reach different people for the Gospel. Bottom line- Don't disount your salvation journey, and never doubt in the dark what God has given you in the light! His love and perfect sacrifice stands strong, despite our imperfections, and that is what we place our hope and foundation in. Embrace grace today friends!

Some helpful ways she learned to fight back was getting outside as much as possible, community (even if its virtual), writing down what your thankful for, diffusing oils, cutting back on sugar intake, listening to worship music, and journaling and reading God's Word. Two resources she mentioned was a HP Sprocket Portable Photo Printer that she printed pictures off everyday to remind her to be thankful and the other one was called a Journalable, a resource that is a journal for a specific book of the Bible. She also battled to remove shame and guilt over this struggle and to give herself grace and let God use this pain for His glory!
