SHOW NOTES: On this show…we are breaking free from the weight of old mistakes by unpinning ourselves from our past. Ever feel like no matter how much you grow, your past keeps showing up like an old playlist you didn't ask to hear again? You're finally moving forward—changing your habits, setting boundaries, maybe even feeling hope—but suddenly, wham, a memory, a regret, or a “what-if” slams into your progress like a closed door. I recently came across this line in a book that hit me right in the heart: “I was a butterfly pinned by my wings to the canvas of my mistakes.” That image has stuck with me. Because haven't we all felt like that at some point—frozen, exposed, and unable to fly, not because we can't, but because we've been too tightly tethered to the past? In this episode, we're digging into what happens when we stay stuck in past mistakes and how that mindset quietly shapes the way we see our future. We'll explore how self-forgiveness isn't just a feel-good idea—it's a critical step in claiming your growth. We'll talk about the emotional toll of living under an old narrative, how to begin rewriting it, and what it means to truly unpin yourself from your past. Ready to reclaim your wings? Let's get into it. Let's start by talking about what it actually means to be “stuck in the past.” It's more than just ruminating on old memories—it's when your self-worth, decision-making, and ability to hope are shaped by events you can't change. It might sound like: “I always mess things up,” or “I don't deserve better because of what I've done,” or even “I'm not the kind of person who gets second chances.” That internal dialogue becomes a trap—one that feels like self-protection but slowly suffocates growth. And the consequences? They're sneaky. You avoid new relationships because of old heartbreaks. You turn down opportunities because you're afraid of failing like you did before. You even stop dreaming because the you from the past already “decided” your limits. It's like driving with the rearview mirror as your guide—and surprise, you're missing what's right in front of you. Being stuck in the past doesn't mean you're broken—it means you're human. But healing means learning to thank your past for the lesson… and then gently close the book. How to Let Go of Past Hurts: 8 Ways to Move On Twelve Steps to Self-Forgiveness You're not behind. You're not broken. And you're definitely not defined by your worst moment. Every time you choose to show up, speak kindly to yourself, and take a step forward—you're rewriting the story. And this time, you're holding the pen. CHALLENGE: Stop seeing your past as a prison and start viewing it as a chapter—one that shaped you, but doesn't get to write your ending. Today, choose to unpin yourself from the canvas of old mistakes and start creating something new, bold, and beautifully unfinished. I Know YOU Can Do It!

This week, Pastor Jeff Moes addresses a topic that's not often discussed in church but affects more individuals and families than many are willing to admit. We'll be talking about abuse.While it's a difficult subject, we believe it's crucial for the church to acknowledge and talk about it so that those impacted can begin the healing process. As we continue our series, "Been There," we recognize that whatever pain, difficulty, or challenge you're facing, Jesus has experienced it too. Abuse is no exception.We'll explore the physical, emotional, and psychological abuse Jesus endured during the crucifixion, and offer insights for both the abuser and those who have been abused. Our hope is to bring healing through Jesus.--WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistConnect with us!

Have you ever hurt yourself doing something and thought “I'll never do that again and 20 years later, you've kept your promise? We dont just do it with physical pain, we do it with mental pain too and it really holds us back. Takeaways: Noticing your thoughts is crucial for happiness. Past experiences can hold us back from new opportunities. Letting go of past hurts empowers us. We often carry emotional baggage without realizing it. Forgiveness is essential for personal growth. Our beliefs shape our reality and potential. The nervous system reacts to memories as if they are real. We can choose not to take on others' negative beliefs. Carrying past hurts makes life harder. Letting go can lead to a more fulfilling life. Keywords: happiness, mental health, past hurts, self-improvement, forgiveness, personal growth, emotional baggage, resilience, mindset, overcoming fear
What happened is in the past, and while I honor my desire to change it, I choose to release it and move forward with peace. I embrace the present moment, letting peace fill my mind and I'm freeing myself from the past. I'm gently letting go of past heartbreak, healing step by step with compassion and patience. I deserve the freedom to face the present and future with a lighter heart. I'm stronger than I realize, and I trust that better days are coming. I'm kind to myself and let the healing process unfold naturally. Healing is a journey. I'm learning to accept it, feel it, work through it, and grow from it. I'm not letting my past define me. I'm still growing and getting wiser every day. I'm treating myself with kindness and love, and I'm taking care of my heart because it needs me. website: https://emotionalwear.com/collections/comfortwear
159. One Of The Real Reasons You're Feeling Distant From God--Bridging the Gap: Reconnecting with God Despite Past Hurts One of the Real Reasons You're Feeling Distant from God—Bridging the Gap: Reconnecting with God Despite Past Hurts Feeling distant from God? You're not alone, friend. In this episode, we explore how our earthly relationships, especially with our parents, can impact our connection with our Heavenly Father. But don't worry—there's hope! ## Key Points: - The surprising link between past hurts and our relationship with God - A simple, one-word prayer to ground you in triggering moments - Learning to accept God's acceptance (it takes courage!) ## Quotable: "Faith is the courage to accept acceptance." - Paul Tillich ## Try This: When you're feeling triggered or distant, take a deep breath and simply say, "Father." Notice how it shifts your perspective. You may notice some resistance or distance from God by even saying "Father"--whatever comes up, don't judge yourself--just notice what comes up. That's the first step in getting to the deeper root of what may be causing some deeper issues in your life. Remember, you're more loved than you can imagine and less broken than you feel. Keep trudging through your beautiful mess—God's right there with you. Song: Check out CC Winans' "The Goodness of God" for an extra dose of encouragement! Scripture mentioned: Psalm 103 Enjoy. Much love, Dani
General Theme for the Week: Insights from the story of a righteous man. Today's Lesson: The incredible perspective of a righteous man. On this edition of One Single Story, Pastors Stephen Mizell and Sheryl Daughety discuss the following questions: None of us are Joseph. He was a key player in God's plan for the world, specifically for the survival of the nation of Israel. How can we adopt his perspective on past hurts even though we may not consider ourselves to be such a key player in God's plan? The offenses that Joseph experienced are not light offenses. He was harmed. He was rejected. He was enslaved. He was sent to prison unjustly for 13 to 17 years. Why do we assume we cannot take the perspective that Joseph took concerning our past “big" hurts? The reading for the day is Genesis 45.
Pain. Trauma. Abuse. Addiction. These are all a part of veteran Ben Peterson's story. He shares his story and talks about his book “Engage Your Destiny: Practical Ways to Run After Your God-Given Purpose.” He'll remind you no matter what you're going through, God's destiny for your life is within reach.

If you are feeling something blocking you from achieving from you want, a sense of never being good enough, not feeling loved, wanted, appreciated and you even block life from giving you good gifts, this episode is for you. Helen Buchanan, an Advanced Conversational Hypnotist in Australia, will help us to understand the deep reasons why so many of us as adults can't progress and seemingly get stuck into a series of frustrating and fulfilling relationships, careers, and experiences. While you listen to the heartfelt experience of Helen's childhood, feel free to use this time to ask yourself if maybe some of your issues are due to your own years as a youngster, feeling unwanted and unloved by important figures in your life. With Helen we celebrate today a victory over the ranting negative committee that keeps telling us we are not good enough, so we can simply live in the present and be there for ourselves, and not just for others. In other words, your new life can begin now, because - guess what - you are in charge of it - not your past emotions! And if you need some help detangling those emotions, helps is at hand with hypnosis, art therapy, NLP and coaching - just to name a few possible modalities to get better.

Overcoming your pastPast mistakes- if you've been here awhile you have probably heard me talking about mistakes I've made. And I've made alot of them. And sadly I still continue to make them because well..i'm human lol I say all this to give you freedom to receive grace from Jesus in your mistakes. The enemy wants us to dwell on our faults…to feel shame and to stay in that shame so that we can't move in to the freedom God has. BUT if it makes you feel any better you will probably make more mistakes to infinity and beyond but God knows this and when we run to Him with our troubles He is there for us. Ephesians 1:7"In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace"So two ways to get over your past- - Bring it to Jesus- He is your healer. You have to bring those mistakes and regrets to the cross, lay them down and let Him carry those burdens for you! -Matt 11:28-30- Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light -Bring it into the light- the more you try to hide your mistakes the easier it is for the enemy to keep you trapped by it. Nothing great happens in the dark. Bring it into the light.2) Past hurts- church hurt or other hurtHurts, trauma pain from the past can hold you hostage and keep you from living in the fullness that God has for you. Whether someone spoke death over you, you were physically hurt, you were hurt in church, some you truly cared for hurt you…whatever the circumstance, not dealing with it will hinder your walk. And I say that in love. We need to again bring these things into the light and allow JEsus to pick up our broken pieces and make us whole in Him! - Let go and forgive-Bring your hurt to GodRemember you are an overcomer! God IS making a way. God wants you to have an abundant full life in Him. Some of these things feel difficult and your first instinct may be to run and hide cause you don't want to deal…i get that! BUT don't you want more? Don't you want to find peace and joy and be released from the pain? Then come on girl, let's put in some work so you can find healing and overcome!!

We all over-react at times. I know I do! Maybe someone is late, and you get really angry instead of a little annoyed. Or your colleague gives you constructive feedback, and you feel decimated inside. You don't know why you had such a big reaction. What if those "overreactions" are actually clues to unpack? In today's episode I walk you through an incredibly practical way to use the power of big emotional reactions in the present to help you heal from events in the past. When you decode the information in your overreactions, you can finally unburden yourself. 1. The main reasons we overreact (8:27) 2. Why we pick up burdens from the past (16:36) 3. The effects of parentification (18:55) 4. How to become a cycle-breaker (23:27) 5. A real-time exercise in unburdening (29:20) Find a full transcript and list of resources from this episode here.

Sounds so philosophical, doesn't it? Your "created past." What is that? We all do it. We remember things based on our emotional state, not on what happened. When someone hurts us, we think back on the other times they hurt us. When someone is kind and loving, we think back on the other loving times. When a couple is connected, they remember connection. When they are disconnected, they remember disconnection. We rewrite the past, based on the present situation. Usually, we just think about how the past led to the present. But where we are forms what we think about where we have been. If you are wondering why your spouse can't remember the happier times, can't remember the passion, can't remember the connection, this is it. The memories are being selected and created based on the current pain and disconnection. Let's talk more about this in the podcast below.

This week we talk about the topic of masculinity as a Christian man and how our misconceptions often lead to a fractured individual. While this discussion is primarily geared toward Christian men, we understand that many women are also affected by similar challenges as well. rootedministries.co
In this episode, I share how to confront past hurts and wounds that we didn't know were there. I talk about how to identify them and confront them so that you can fully heal from them. What we don't confront, we won't conquer. In order to heal we need to expose the pain and not just put a band aid on it expecting it to fully heal. It's going to take faith and forgiveness for complete healing. The first step to healing is to find the source of that pain and what pain is being triggered the most. What is causing you pain? Why is it causing you pain? Identify what those triggers are and what are cousin those open wounds to hurt again. We have to find the root cause of that pain, the first sign of a trigger is when we have a disporportion reaction for something that was small, we overreact on something that shouldn't cause us to over react. Allow those moments for you to pause and recognize the emotion behind the over reaction and be honest with yourself. Expose the wounds that have hurt you and learn to break the toxic cycle of negativity. Proverbs 17:22 “A cheerful heart is good medicine.” The joy comes from being in God's presence it is the joy of the Lord that gives us strength. Healing is a process and a journey. Its going to take faith and forgiveness to fully heat. Faith is what we need to believe that Christ can heal us and we need to forgive those that caused us pain and forgive ourselves.

Many people can relate to feeling hurt and untrusting, believing that they don't have the space to allow someone into their lives. It is possible to operate on a level of trust, even after experiencing past traumas. I encourage you to take accountability for the way you show up for yourself and others, as the lack of accountability can lead to being stuck in old patterns and resistant to growth.Feeling broken and guarded can make it challenging to open up and allow someone to love and nurture the wounded parts of their heart. We desire to protect the little corner that is still available for love and restoration but sometimes the suffering we experience is self-imposed because we are resistant to undoing the pain we have endured. Acknowledge that it is a step-by-step process but allow your heart a little bit of an opening, as experiences can help us recall the capacity to love and be loved. It is important to not allow past hurts prevent personal growth and the ability to love and connect with others.

Christine Caine and Sadie get into a passionate discussion about why dwelling on the past — the good and the bad — is the wrong way to keep moving forward into your future. Christine talks about her early childhood years filled with abuse, abandonment, neglect, and betrayal — and how she's had to deal with all of it at different times in her life as she got married, had two girls, and started her life of ministry, speaking, and writing. Christine shares a lesson she overheard in motorcycle driving lessons: Wherever you look, your body will follow — and she expands on the truth of that idea not only when driving her Vespa and making a turn, but how focusing on Christ should be the ONLY thing Christians focus on as they navigate life. If we linger somewhere else, we'll eventually go there, so fight off the distractions and make Jesus the focus! If you don't learn to fix your eyes on Jesus, you're going to get stuck! And if you don't deal with the past, the past will deal with you. Christine's book, "Don't Look Back," is available now. https://helixsleep.com/sadie — Get up to 20% OFF AND 2 free pillows! https://liberty.edu/Sadie — Get your application fee WAIVED when you start your future with Liberty University today! https://www.kiwico.com — Get 50% off your first month plus FREE shipping with code SADIEROB! - Learn more about your ad choices.
