Sifted Wheat

Religion EN ↓ 56 episodes

Sifted Wheat was created to bring conversation about relationships and real life situations. It is not a platform to be seen or to seek influence, but a safe place to learn. There is a lot of information available to us, a lot of opinions, but with Leslie’s combined experience of ministry and mental health, it’s designed to be a place to learn and to grow and to discover that we can heal. As humans we can go through a lot, and here we can explore what we need to hold us together, where we can be challenged to think differently, and how we can be encouraged to live an empowered life.

Who’s in your ear? 25.08.2023 14:46

In this episode I share the analogy of noise cancelling ear phones and how we can sometimes limit wisdom and counsel when we only listen to what we want to hear and also might miss warnings that we need to hear to help us navigate life better! I not only address the listener but also the speaker, because how we say things is just as important as what we need to say. Deception gains access when we...

You’re not invisible 11.08.2023 18:39

At one time or another, maybe even right now, you have had that sense no one sees you, the fear surfaces that you are alone, invisible. This episode explores that fear and exposes it as a lie through the stories of Hagar and Nathanial, and of course, my own. Listen in and be encouraged to believe that you are not invisible. Scriptures to read: Genesis 16 & 20 John 1:45-51 Psalm 103:13-14 Speci...

The Blame Game (Part Deux) 28.07.2023 22:03

I promise that we will get to the topic of not being invisible and the God who sees, but I felt it was important to revisit this topic again! This episode we will engage an overview of our last episode on blame and pick back up where we left off, at the beginning of my healing not the end. We will also look at David and what it meant to be "a man after God's own heart" and the misunderstanding of...

The Blame Game 14.07.2023 21:30

It can be easy to blame yourself, someone else, or even God for how you got to where you are. The problem is that easy isn’t always best. When you shift into blame over responsibility, it can set you up for failure and impede the process of healing. Listen to learn more about the result of blame and how to shift out of it!

What’s the deal with sifting? 30.06.2023 23:07

This episode centers in on the process of sifting, what is the purpose? Who decides the process? Who even gives permission? Where does our past pain resurface to complicate matters, and how does that understanding empower us? We will look at Peter and Jesus (Luke 22:31-32) and Job to unpack some truths that might have formerly been hidden. Scriptures to explore: Luke 22: 31-32, Job, Psalm 51:10-13...

What’s in a name? 16.06.2023 18:19

This episode explores where the Sifted Wheat podcast got it's start, and why it feels important to release it. Have you ever been through a hard time, a difficult season, that brought life to a grinding halt? If you've been on planet earth long, you surely have, or will, or know someone who is going through what I refer to, thanks to a conversation with Jesus and Peter, being "sifted as wheat." I...
