Hey Family, taking a short break to manage some transition and I will be right back! Super excited to continue season 3 with you all, it has been a beautiful journey, and I can't wait to continue! Stay tuned and stay well!

Today's podcast episode is a solo podcast with yours truly! Today I discuss 4 different ways that fear shows up in our lives on a daily basis. Although this list isn't exhaustive, and these areas of fear are not aimed to be a one size fit all, these four areas seem to be a common thread among various people. So my challenge is for you to reflect on where and how does fear show up in your life and how do you navigate through it? The truth is that as humans fear will show up, but the key is to not allow it to hold us captive. Jesus comes that we may have life ,and that we may have it more abundantly, but fear takes away from that abundant living. My hope is that today's podcast sheds light and brings clarity to how fear shows up, and that the Holyspirit brings clarity on how to navigate through these various elements of fear. 

On today's podcast episode we are talking about overcoming fear, and joining me today is my friend and sister Cherise Lyn. This podcast episode was quite special to me because I have watched my friend do hard things and overcome fear. I have watched her climb to new levels, and come out of the shadows, so I know she is speaking from a place of truth and experience. Cherise brings us on her journey of where fear first started for her, and how fear has showed up in different areas of her life. She also gives us practical tips and tools from a biblical standpoint on how to overcome fear, and she stands in her gift of elevating and empowering us to be our best selves. Most importantly, Cherise reminds us that God is faithful in every season of our lives and on every level. Grab your notebooks and pens, and get ready for some good food and laughter. 

On today's podcast episode we are joined by Pastor Samuel Kenga from the Toronto City Church. On this episode Pastor Samuel shares his story of childhood trauma and how this affected seeing God as his Father. Pastor Samuel so powerfully reminds us that there is no fear in love according to 1 John 4:8, and he reminds us that our heavenly Father is for us. He also provides an in-depth and applicable teaching on loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others. Finally, Pastor Samuel shares a prophetic word that I know will be just what your soul needs in this season of healing. I am sure you already have your notebook and pen ready. I also challenge you to posture your heart to receive what the Father has in store for you.  Trigger Warning: Please note that there are contents of this podcast that may be triggering for you, and it is not suitable for children under 16 years old.

On Today's podcast episode we are talking about Grace! This is often a word thrown around within various contexts; and I believe that it has been both abused and underused. So today we get a rich and fundamental understanding of Grace grounded in biblical truth. Joining me on this journey of understanding Grace is my friend and brother, Pastor Rohan Samuels from Edmonton Alberta. Pastor Ro gives us a powerful definition of Grace, and reminds us that it is the most important concept in the bible; He also reminds us that Jesus Christ Himself is the embodiment of Grace. Pastor Ro also provides a rich and in-depth response to the question of why our churches have been filled with fear-based narratives and tones as opposed to being saturated and rooted in Grace. Get ready for your perspective to be shifted and to gain a deeper understanding of Grace.  To learn more about Pastor Rohan Samuels and the Freedom Life Church please visit https://freedomlifechurch.ca. 

On today's podcast episode I am joined by Pastor Sharon Joy Witton from the Toronto City Church. During this episode we talk about the character of God. I have found that due to the unfortunate happenings of 2020, many have been left questioning God, the truth of His character, and His heart towards them. Thus, we need to be realigned, reminded, and re-introduced to the Character of God but according to His word. Pastor Sharon and I do a deep dive into the word of God allowing us to be grounded in biblical truth, and showing the heart of God for humanity through scripture. Understanding the character of God is an important element of our healing journey. When we have a healthy view of God, His heart towards us, and who He desires to be in our lives, our perspective on life begins to shift. Grab your notebooks and pens! It's going to be a good one.  To find out more information about Pastor Sharon and the Toronto city church, please visit https://www.torontocitychurch.com. 

On today's episode I am joined by Pastor James Tyson II as we discuss Spiritual Discipline and Emotional Wholeness. We discuss being realigned with spiritual disciplines, but from a place of emotionally healthy spirituality. In our generation unfortunately many have viewed the disciplines of prayer, fasting, and the reading of the word from a legalistic place, and without a true biblical understanding of what this means in the life of the believer. Our hope that is that you walk away way with a clear biblical understanding of spiritual disciplines, and its contribution to your emotional wholeness and day to day life.

On today's episode I am joined by the Purpose Coach, Nicole O Salmon, as we discuss becoming realigned and living in purpose clarity. After taking a look at our current world climate, and being in tuned with the pulse of my generation, I can feel that many need some sense of direction around what to do next in terms of purpose, plans, goals, etc. Some started the year off with great anticipation, and may have lost their spark, while others cancelled 2021 on January 1st. Here is the fire and the spark that you need to get moving. Grab your notebook and pen, because the Holyspirit has something to share with you on this episode.

On January 27th I officially launched my Counselling practice, Soul Care Christian Counselling and Consulting. So, on today's episode I give you my heart behind why I started my counselling practice particularly for the Black christian community. I am super excited to share my journey with you, and my prayer is that you are blessed and inspired to pursue every single thing that God has for you as you aim to fulfill your purpose.  To find out more information about Soul Care Christian Counselling and Consulting, please visit https://thesoulcarecounsellor.com.
