Velkommen til podcasten for deg som er drittlei av å være et offer i ditt eget liv – men som kanskje ikke helt tør å innrømme det ennå.La oss være ærlige: Offermentalitet handler ikke om uflaks. Det handler om å gi fra seg makta over eget liv – bit for bit, unnskyldning for unnskyldning.I denne podcasten river jeg ned illusjonene. Jeg deler egne historier og brutale erkjennelser – inkludert dagen jeg innså at jeg selv satt fast i offerrollen, og hva jeg måtte gjøre for å komme meg ut. Det var ikke pent. Men det var nødvendig.Dette er ikke for deg som vil ha quick fixes ...

We all put our hope in something or someone. Hope is the oxygen of the soul! At some point, though, most of us experience hope that never pans out. What then? Is it possible to hang on to hope when life doesn't make sense or when things go from bad to worse? Or maybe you've received exactly what you hoped for only to realize that it doesn't satisfy!

I Offer It to You includes a reading of the eponymous prayer followed by beautiful piano music based on an original composition of Frederic Chopin. The piano composition includes Nocturne in E Major, Op. 62 No. 2 - Lento. The uneasy start of this nocturne shatters the melody nervously before picking up the broken thread a moment later. The agitation soon subsides, however, giving way to the principal melody. This comes about in a wondrous and beautiful way.

When Winston Churchill was a boy of 16, he already had a vision for his purpose in life. "This country will be subjected somehow to a tremendous invasion...I shall be in command of the defenses of London...it will fall to me to save the Capital, to save the Empire." It was a most unlikely prediction. Perceived as a failure for much of his life, Churchill was the last person anyone would have expected to rise to national prominence as prime minister and influence the fate of the world during World War II.

Drawn from the personal experience of the authors and current research, The Heart of Recovery calls us to set aside judgment and mend recovering addicts and their families with the stuff God uses to heal: compassion and community. It's a call to serve the ones who cannot repay, to forgive 70 times 7, to fling the door wide open to the prodigal, and to remember the purpose of grace. A supportive community - family, friends, the church, and more - encourages and sustains long-term recovery. Through compassion, we bring hope for healing.
