In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, I sit down with my sister Brianna to talk about identity in Christ, healing, and trust in God when shame and old labels try to take over. Brianna shares pieces of her testimony, including seasons of homelessness, addiction, and mental health struggles, and how God met her there and led her into a new life. We talk about what it can look like to walk with God in real faith, especially when you feel stuck in your thoughts. We also get practical about spiritual growth: simple prayers in everyday moments, remembering what God has already brought you through, and speaking life instead of repeating the enemy’s accusations. If you are working through your past, carrying guilt, or trying to believe that you can be made new, this conversation is for you. You are not disqualified. God is still writing your story.
