What do Olympic athletes, exhausted parents, and flawed disciples have in common? Comebacks. In this inspiring Mother's Day message, Pastor Lisa shares the powerful true story of Norwegian skier Simen Hegstad Krüger—who went from a devastating crash at the start of the Olympic race to an unbelievable gold medal victory. His perseverance mirrors the story of Peter, the disciple who failed big, but was lovingly restored by Jesus.This message is for anyone who's ever messed up, felt like a failure, or struggled with perfectionism. Pastor Lisa reminds us that flaws do not disqualify us—God's mercy meets us in our mess. From vomiting toddlers on planes to lost wedding rings, to Peter's heartbreaking denial of Jesus, this sermon is filled with humor, honesty, and biblical truth about how God can turn failure into faithfulness.Whether you're a tired mom, a recovering perfectionist, or just someone in need of a second chance—this message will encourage you to rise, keep going, and trust that Jesus uses the perfectly flawed.Key Scriptures:Lamentations 3:22-23Romans 3:23Luke 22:34, 54–62John 21:11Matthew 16:18Isaiah 26:3For the full gathering of this message which includes worship, visit our Youtube channel.

How did Kristy Lashober go from having a thriving business as a wardrobe stylist in Southern California to receiving a five year federal prison sentence? Kristy was born with a medical condition that led to her becoming addicted to opioids as a child. After 10 years of sobriety and ending a marriage to a police officer, Kristy relapsed. This led her to trying meth and eventually selling to a Connecticut priest who the media dubbed as "Monsignor Meth." The story made national headlines. Kristy leads us through her experience in federal prison. When she was released she graduated with honors from college and has become a strong advocate for prison reform, leading the fight to remove the criminal history box from college applications. Kristy is the author of the book, "Perfectly Flawed: Uncovering Your Greatest Purpose." This is an Incredible Comeback Story!

Confidence Hack #33: your flaws are what make you perfect, just like the greatest people in history! Picture this, the Bible is the greatest selling book of all time. In the Bible are stories of men who have been heralded as some of the greatest in history. Yet apart from Jesus, the men in these stories were tremendously flawed. David, Solomon, Moses, Peter, all had flaws that you and I would think about as being the most crippling character detriments. Even with their incredible flaws, God placed his love and his trust in them. Every one is flawed. Every single person on this Earth. And that is good! So when you see someone who may have it all together, know that they have massive flaws. And you are perfect in your flaws. Gain confidence knowing that you are still capable of achieving greatness, even if you have some flaws. Hey! If you love this show, share it with family and friends! It's the best way to help get this info into the hands of people who want to grow and become the most CONFIDENT LEADERS they can be! And please throw us a 5-star review!
