I most often see the church engage with the topic “church hurt” in a defensive way, which leads to more harm than good to those who have in fact been hurt in the church.

If that’s you, you deserve compassion not judgment. You deserve healing. I hope this episode can fill you with hope for what God wants to give you: healing.

Disappointment is one of those emotions no one likes to feel, yet we feel often and most intensely.

In today's episode, I share some questions I've answered to explore my origin story as a daughter of Christian immigrants. My hope is that these questions can help contextualize your experience as a child of Christian immigrants and, in the end, feel encouraged that you're not alone in feeling like a wanderer stuck between two cultures.

Let's talk about emotions! We are most definitely not an emotionless culture, but what would it look like for us to shift from our culture’s approach to emotions and use emotions as evidence of God’s working in our heart? In this episode, I talk about how your emotions matter to God and they can actually be used as tools for transformation.
