Trade a Lie for a Truth

Trade a Lie for a Truth

Did God *really* say He’d use all things for His glory + your good? Doesn’t look that good to me... Did He *really* say peace is possible? I wouldn’t hold your breath... Did God *really* say He’d never leave you? Well then... where is He? And did God *really* say He’d give you rest? Because (no offense) you look pretty tired + defeated to me... Bottom line: Our enemy is out to kill our peace, destroy our faith, and steal our hope. How? By planting lies in our minds in hopes we take the bait. Good news for us though: Jesus came to set us free, and ”if we abide in His Word, we’ll know the truth + the truth will set us free” (John 8:32).This is the show for you if you’re ready to pick up the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, and stand firm in the truth, defusing every fiery dart and seizing that abundant life Jesus always gives. Join host Heidi Lee Anderson, popular social media creator and author of P.S. It’s Gonna Be Good, episode by episode as we Trade a Lie for a Truth.

Join me as I pull back the curtain of my life and share a behind-the-scenes look into what God is actively teaching me...

Have you ever heard someone say, "God won't give you more than you can handle"?

But then life happens, and you do face more than you can handle. There's a diagnosis that's far bigger than you. Bills that seem insurmountable. Your child’s challenges that are far out of your control. The strains in your marriage, well… it's all requiring a lot more from you than you feel like ...

Ever felt like you don't belong?

Maybe it’s because you homeschool and everyone else sends their kid to public. Or you moved, and while everyone else has their people, you have to start fresh with all strangers. Or maybe it’s in your job—you’re a Christian and everyone else… let’s just say doesn’t show the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

Whatever it ma...

Ever thought, “Once I can get past this, I’ll have joy again”?

Here’s the deal: While happiness is based on circumstances, joy comes from something—er, rather, someone—completely different. Once we understand what it is and learn from the Bible how to get it, then we can live with joy TODAY.

Have you ever felt like, “I can’t have real friends”?

It’s not as easy as it was when we were in grade school; no, now making adult friends is hard. Let alone, making real adult friends.

Have you ever bought into the lie of hustle culture that’s screaming, “To get the life you want, you have to chase that life down!”? You know, work 24/7. Be available around the clock. Run yourself into the ground.

Basically, if you want it, you gotta make it happen… all day, every day.

Have you ever heard, “God had nothing to do with that?”

Something so bad, so tragic, so horrific happened that it was almost spoken as a reassurance or thought to make you feel better. Like “how could a good God have allowed something so bad?”

Ever heard, "All good people go to heaven"?   Whether it’s Islam, Judaism, or secular humanism, the common belief of culture today is that getting into heaven is just a matter of following the Ten Commandments or the precepts of the Quran or the Golden Rule... ultimately, just "being a good person."   But is this true? Let’s find out today. My husband grew up learning about religion, but when he heard about a relationship? Everythi...

In the midst of daily difficulties and everyday challenges, have you ever thought, “I’m so done with this! It’s so hard… pushing me too far… stretching me beyond belief. God, take this away—I’m ready for the good! I’m ready for the blessing"?

Have you ever wondered, “When things are hard… God must be punishing me”? When you experience something painful—a trial within your marriage, your home, your finances, or your health—it can be easy to buy into this lie that God is punishing us because of something we said or did.

But there is some good news found in Jesus.🙌

We’ve heard God’s timing is always perfect, but have you ever doubted it?

When plans go south, bad news comes, and the trajectory keeps getting worse, it’s at this point we start to entertain this lie, don’t we? Because we know how to turn the story around! We have it all mapped out in our mind + in our prayers, and we know what would usher in the redemption and give us that...

Ever feel like your children are a burden?

To fight the lies found in every comparison trap, we need to uncover 2️⃣ truths: who we are in God and the reality of every person we're comparing ourselves to.

In the age of "speak your truth," it's become widely accepted to process and spew out any words you'd like.
