Former Things vs. The Former Things - Personal Bible Study of Isaiah 46

Are you replaying memories that keep you stuck, or remembering the truth that steadies you?" In this episode, Dr. Nanette Floyd Patterson shares a "run around the building" revelation from Isaiah 46:9 that clarifies the difference between the former things we must release and the ones we must carry as evidence.

We often hold onto memories that make us hesitant, guarded, and unsure of ourselves. But God is pointing us toward a different kind of remembering. One that builds trust instead of worry. We’re exploring the "Tale of Two Histories" and how a simple Memory Audit can help you trade the weight of your past for the weapon of your testimony.

Have you ever had truth hit so hard it almost took your breath away? In this episode of Feel Heal Grow & Flow with Dr. Nanette, Christian Therapist, Master HIScoach, Consultant, and Trainer. Dr. Nanette Floyd Patterson shares how faithful truth can hurt before it heals—and how God can use even the sting of conviction to help us grow.

Sometimes truth feels like swallowing a hard piece of candy whole. It’s uncomfortable, unexpected, and it lingers. When that happens, it’s easy to get offended—to focus on the sting instead of the sweetness that’s still there. But offense blocks what truth is trying to heal. When we pause instead of react, pray instead of defend, and let truth take its course, God softens what’s hard and brings peace where there was pride.

In this conversation, Dr. Nanette invites you to grow through what you go through. You’ll gain spiritual and practical tools to help you recognize faithful truth, manage offense with grace, and let God’s Word transform your heart from the inside out.
