If you’ve ever struggled with fear, anxiety, or the feeling of being “stuck,” this episode will encourage you to step boldly into the fullness of what God has prepared for you.

Life comes for us all, but we have to remember, God is right now watching over the words that He has spoken to you and over you to perform them. We have to look for His word and wait for Him to fulfill them. 👉 Jeremiah 1:12 says, “Then said the Lord to me, You have seen well, for I am alert and active, watching over My word to perform it.”

What or who do we live to worship? Do our answers line up with what our lives and actions show?

I was feeling really convicted about this the other day when I started thinking about what I was fixating on in my life. I'm not passing judgment, I just want to make sure that we are pointed in the right direction. 🙏 I hope this one stirs some thoughts and gets you thinking.

What if the cycles we’re stuck in aren’t accidents, but results of open doors and old lies? This episode explores the hidden patterns shaping our lives, the spiritual traps we walk into daily, and how even good habits can lead to destruction when rooted in deception. It's time to wake up, examine your base state, and confront the beliefs that are quietly holding you back.

What do you keep holding onto that needs to be removed. Stop pretending there’s life in areas that are clearly dead.

Isaiah 43:18-19 says,

“Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”

In this episode, we’re talking about perspective—how our thoughts shape our reality and the way we approach the work God has given us.

It’s easy to let the wrong thoughts turn what was meant to be a blessing into a curse.

How many of us are called to be set apart but spend years trying to fit in? How often do we compare our paths to others instead of seeking God’s direction for our own? 🤔

Today we'll be talking about the importance of renewing our minds, taking our thoughts captive, and recognizing when our perspectives have drifted off course. Because the truth is, our thoughts influence our words, our words influence our actions, and ultimately, they shape our destiny.

Scriptures Mentioned:

• 1 Samuel 8:4-5

• 1 Samuel 16:6-7

• 2 Corinthians 10:5 (Taking every thought captive)

Welcome back to the Church Acts Podcast! In this episode, Terry takes a deep dive into the idea of life’s timeline—how the big and small moments, both good and bad, can shape how we see ourselves and our journey.

You’ll hear about finding clarity in hindsight, breaking free from old cycles, and embracing the open possibilities of the future. This is about reclaiming your story, letting go of the weight of the past, and leaning into the plans God has for you.

Key Takeaways:

• Hindsight gives clarity, but it doesn’t have to define where you’re going.
• Charting your timeline can help you uncover patterns and gain perspective.
• Moving forward takes hope, action, and trust in God’s promises.

Action Step:
Take some time to map out your timeline:

• Grab a piece of paper and draw a horizontal timeline. Mark major events—good, bad, and everything in between.
• Reflect on what those moments taught you and where you see patterns.
• Pray over your timeline and the blank space ahead, inviting God into all the moments to come.

In this episode we aren't going to just talk about opinions. We'll be going to the Bible to see what it has to say about things concerning Halloween and talk about a unique perspective that was shown to me. 🙏
