Are you confused or unsure about the role of the Holy Spirit in your life? Pastor Matt Neese, founder of Wellspring Live Church in Rowlett, TX, sits down with Pastor Kason to discuss the Holy Spirit. What is His role in your life? What are some common misconceptions about the Holy Spirit? How does the Holy Spirit actually guide us?

14: Aniela Chis, who works for Human Coalition, discusses the significance of the recently overturned case of Roe vs. Wade. January is an important month for Christians and the pro-life movement: it's the month that the March for Life parade takes place in D.C. and it is also known as "Sanctity of Life" month. Aniela's testimony is powerful - she explains how the abortion she had at age 17 impacted her life forever. God turned her seemingly "mess" into an impactful message that now equips her to help reach women considering abortions. Aniela now works for Human Coalition, a non-profit organization whose goal is to make abortion unnecessary and unthinkable. Their mission is to rescue pre-born babies from abortion by helping moms in crisis pregnancy. This past year, Human Coalition rescued 25,000 babies! Another important topic that Aniela brings up is church involvement within the pro-life movement and its responsibility in the healing process of post-abortive women and even men who are involved. Take a listen to learn more about this extremely important topic!

13: Fear is a God-given mechanism to protect you from dangerous situations. Often, the enemy tries to plant seeds of fear in our minds that can become rancid roots if gone unchecked: it can become irrational and even dangerous to our mental, emotional, spiritual and physical health. This podcast episode describes how you can defeat the crippling fear that holds you back from God's way of living a free life! Mrs. April and her daughter Elizabeth discuss what unhealthy fear looks like, its triggers, how to combat fearful thoughts, how to replace fear with FAITH, and more.

"Counseling Through Your Bible Handbook" by June Hunt
11: We've all manipulated others at some point in life... the key is to recognize your actions and understand why manipulative behavior can be dangerous. Pastor April teaches on manipulation, the tactics of manipulation, why people allow themselves to be manipulated, why people manipulate others, and why God does NOT want you to be controlled by someone else. Our goal should be to please God. When we get into the "people-pleasing mode", it's a slippery slope to a life of dysfunction, pain, and emotional rollercoasters. Pastor April gives practical steps and Biblical wisdom to severing the strings of control and living a life free from manipulation.

5: Today, you'll get to hear clips of testimonials from women that have graduated from the Stronger program at Freedom Place. We also continued our conversation with Dr. Brooke Jones, the creator of Stronger Women. Dr. Brooke is a national and international speaker on topics of global oppression of women, domestic & gender-based violence, and human trafficking. Brooke is wife to Rick, mom of two young kids, and is a two-decade survivor of domestic violence and aggravated stalking.
Rewind to Brooke as a young woman - from the outside, her life was picture-perfect: She had the perfect husband, the perfect career, the perfect house, and the perfect life. Little did anyone know that Brooke was a victim of physical, mental, and emotional abuse on a daily basis at her husband's hand. Dr. Brooke didn't let her tragedy define her. She fought to gain her freedom back. Miraculously, God has turned her story into a story of redemption and healing.
Years later, Dr. Brooke went on to earn her Bachelor’s degree in Entrepreneurship, her Master’s degree in Education, and in 2016 received an Honorary Doctorate degree in Theology to recognize her contribution and impact through the Stronger Women programs. She is the founder and CEO of "Stronger Women," a faith-based curriculum and program dedicated to helping women find true freedom from domestic violence. Find more information about Stronger Women at www.strongerwomen.com.
Dr. Brooke will be a guest speaker at our domestic violence awareness conference "Purple" on Saturday, October 8th. Learn more about the Purple Conference at https://www.freedomplace.tv/purple-2022
