In this deeply personal and heartfelt episode, your good sis Lyss dives into one of the purest expressions of God’s heart: agapē love — the kind of love that pursues, protects, restores, and refuses to let you slip away. Through scripture, personal storytelling, and spiritual insight, Lyss unpacks what agapē truly means, why God leaves the ninety-nine for the one, and how He uses specific people as divine assignments to draw us back to love.
You’ll hear a story about Missy — a former co-worker who unexpectedly became a safe place, a mirror of God’s tenderness, and a living example of agapē love in action. Lyss opens up about how counseling revealed hidden barriers to vulnerability and why many people struggle to receive love even when it’s real.
This episode explores childhood patterns, attachment wounds, spiritual hardness, healing, and the practical, biblical steps to letting God soften your heart so you can give and receive love the way He designed.
If you’ve ever felt guarded, disconnected, misunderstood, or afraid to trust love… this episode is for you. God is still pursuing you. And sometimes He sends “the one” to remind you of that.

In this final episode of the Forgiveness Series, Lyss turns the mirror inward. You’ve forgiven others… but what about you? Why does self-forgiveness feel so much harder — and what does the Bible actually say about it?
Through the stories of Peter and Paul, spiritual insight, psychological research, and real-life examples, this episode walks you through the difference between guilt and shame, why we replay the past in our minds, and how to finally receive the forgiveness God has already given you.
If you’ve ever struggled with letting go of your own mistakes, replaying decisions you wish you made differently, or feeling unworthy of God’s love — this episode will meet you right where you are.
You’ll learn:
- How the Bible defines forgiveness
- Why self-forgiveness is so difficult
- The difference between guilt vs. shame
- How God restores and rewrites your story
- Five steps to start forgiving yourself today
It’s time to release the weight you’ve been carrying.
God has already forgiven you — now walk in it.

In Part 2 of the Forgiveness Series, we’re diving deep into a question many of us silently wrestle with: If they come back, does that mean we’re supposed to reconnect? Just because someone returns doesn’t mean it’s time to reconcile.
In this episode, Lyss unpacks biblical wisdom through the stories of Noah, Peter, Judas, and Paul—alongside a personal testimony about obedience, healing, and closure. Whether you’ve been ghosted, reconnected, or still waiting for an apology, this is the reminder you didn’t know you needed: forgiveness is not the same as restoration. Sometimes, God shuts doors not to punish—but to protect. And when He does, no one can reopen them.

What if the healing you’re waiting on isn’t blocked by someone else—but by something still hidden in you? In this episode, we’re talking about real forgiveness: not the kind that waits for an apology, but the kind that starts with God.
You’ll learn:
- Why forgiveness is a spiritual decision, not an emotional reaction
- What Jesus actually said about how many times we’re supposed to forgive
- Four honest, faith-filled ways to begin letting go—especially when it feels impossible
We’ll also break down what forgiveness is not: spiritual amnesia, a free pass, or a sign of weakness. Instead, it’s how God clears spiritual traffic, opens the door to healing, and moves you toward your breakthrough.
Make sure you stay tuned for Part 2, where we explore what to do when someone comes back: is it a God reunion, or a door that should stay shut?

We explore how “being still” isn’t passive—it’s powerful. Whether it’s for protection, preparation, or pulling you back into His presence, divine stillness is never wasted. If you’ve been feeling stuck, silent, or sidelined… this might be your answer.

What if the thing blocking your breakthrough isn’t in front of you—but hidden beside you, behind you, or buried deep inside? In this episode, we explore spiritual blind spots: the unseen issues in our thoughts, habits, and decisions that quietly derail growth, delay purpose, and distort how we hear from God. You’ll learn how to identify blind spots, understand how God reveals them, and respond with wisdom, truth, and grace.
