    Today I open up about how a punishment-based relationship with God quietly erodes your mental, emotional and relational health. I share from my own journey how the lie of disconnection, fear, and chronic condemnation can create a constant sense of “I’m not safe,” leading to anxiety, hypervigilance, torment, perfectionism, OCD patterns, depression, and deep loneliness.

  • 2 Things Perfectionists Obsess About 15.09.2026 19мин
    Join me as I talk about two main things that perfectionists are often obsessed about. They fixate on these two things quite often. Are you exhausted from constantly feeling “almost there, but never enough” in your walk with God? In this broadcast, I expose two hidden patterns that quietly drive Christian perfectionism—and how they wear […]

    In this Sunday Live, I walk through a powerful section of Philippians 3 and share why you haven’t arrived… and that’s actually the point.

  • Emotions Perfectionists FEEL (Or Do Not Allow) 02.09.2026 24мин

    In this episode of Sunday Live, I dive into the book of Philippians for a teaching on detecting performance-based influencers in the church. I unpack Paul’s striking warning to “beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the mutilation” (Philippians 3:2) and what that actually means for us today. We talk about Judaizers, legalism, […]
  • Freedom from the Burden of “Just Right But Never Enough”: The Christian Perfectionist Healing Journey 26.08.2026 7мин
    So many believers deeply desire to live right before God, uphold strong values, and walk in holiness.

This is the toxic […]

    In this Sunday Live, I continue our Philippians Bible study and dive deep into Paul’s call to “rejoice in the Lord.” What does it actually mean to rejoice when life feels anything but joyful? Is joy just a religious cliché, or a real, practical experience we can grow in—especially in the midst of anxiety, depression, […]

    In this Sunday Live, I open up about burnout, overwork, chronic health struggles, and why so many of us are secretly exhausted while trying to serve God. Using Philippians 2 and the story of Epaphroditus, I walk through a biblical picture of burnout, illness, and God’s mercy that doesn’t shame you for crashing, but actually […]
  • 🔴 Freedom in Christ to Make Decisions | Shame About Your Past | Whatever Is NOT of Faith Is Sin? | Watching TV Shows 05.08.2026 2ч 2мин
    There is far more freedom in Christ than we could ever imagine and this broadcast gets into so many areas that seek to hinder the freedom and liberty that is available to us in Christ. This impacts our spiritual walk and our mental health in many ways. I talk about how this impacts decisions, calling […]
