   EP10 - From Tradition to Transformation

   💬 Show Notes Welcome back to another soul-nourishing episode of Broken but Redeemed 🎙️. I'm your host, Erika, and today, we are diving into a deeply personal journey of faith transformation. In this milestone 10th episode, I open up about my upbringing in the Catholic Church and the profound shift that occurred as I embraced the Christian faith. Growing up, my family's Catholic traditions were more about rituals and gatherings than a personal connection with God. From attending church on special occasions to praying to saints, my early experiences were steeped in tradition but lacked the intimacy of a relationship with Jesus. I share candidly about how this backdrop shaped my initial understanding of faith and the pivotal moments that led me to seek something deeper. In this episode, we explore three significant differences between my Catholic upbringing and my current Christian faith: 1. **Praying to Saints**: I discuss how I grew up praying to the Virgin Mary and other saints, believing they could intercede on my behalf. In contrast, my Christian faith teaches that through Jesus, we have direct access to God without needing intermediaries. 2. **Baptism**: I reflect on the tradition of infant baptism in the Catholic Church, which I followed with my own children, and how it contrasts with the believer's baptism in Christianity, symbolizing a personal decision to follow Christ. 3. **Confession and Penance**: I share my experiences with the sacrament of confession and how, as a Christian, I now confess my sins directly to God, embracing the forgiveness and grace He offers without human intermediaries. This episode is a heartfelt testimony of moving from religious tradition to a personal, transformative relationship with God. Through Celebrate Recovery and the support of a loving Christian community, I found the peace, joy, and purpose that only a relationship with Jesus can provide. So, pour yourself a cup of coffee, cozy up, and join me for a conversation that invites you to seek a deeper, more personal connection with God. Whether you're navigating your own faith journey or simply curious about the differences between Catholicism and Christianity, this episode offers insights and encouragement for all. Remember, faith is about knowing God personally and experiencing His love daily. Thank you for letting me share my story, and I look forward to hearing yours. Let's Connect!

We explore the complexities of navigating motherhood and faith, the importance of community, and the courage it takes to reshape one's identity in Christ. Shary's story is a powerful reminder that our walk with God is not a straight path but a dynamic journey filled with ups and downs, learning, and unlearning.

   EP7 - Transforming Church Hurt Into Hope

   💬 Show Notes Welcome to another soul-stirring episode of Broken but Redeemed, where we delve into the delicate yet crucial topic of church hurt. I'm your host, Erika, and today's episode is not just close to my heart, but also deeply intertwined with the journey of a cherished friend and guest, Erika Henderson. Erika's story is one of enduring faith amid the turmoil of church betrayal, a narrative that many of us can painfully relate to. Raised in a Christian home, she encountered the love of Jesus early on. Yet, life's trials, including the pain of her parents' divorce and the sting of rebellion, led her down a path where she experienced the church as both a haven and a battleground. Erika opens up about the wounds inflicted by those she trusted within the church walls. Her children's heartbreaking experiences became a catalyst for a deeper exploration of forgiveness, healing, and the relentless pursuit of justice, all through the lens of God's unwavering love. This episode is a testament to the transformative power of Celebrate Recovery, a place where Erika found solace, community, and the courage to face her deepest hurts without the crutch of alcohol. It's a story of a mother's fierce love, a family's resilience, and the remarkable journey from anger to a place of blessing those who wronged them. As we navigate the conversation, we touch on the complexities of trust, especially among women, and the beauty of friendships forged in the fires of vulnerability and shared pain. Erika's insights on setting boundaries while maintaining a heart of kindness offer a blueprint for anyone struggling to reconcile the concept of community with the reality of human fallibility. If you've ever felt the sting of church hurt, questioned the goodness of God in the midst of betrayal, or grappled with the weight of unforgiveness, this episode speaks directly to you. It's a reminder that, despite the brokenness we may encounter, our stories are still being woven into a tapestry of redemption by a God who specializes in mending the fractured and setting the captives free. So join us as we journey through Erika's powerful testimony, and may it ignite a spark of hope and healing in your own life. Remember, we are all broken in some way, but through Christ, we find the beauty of being redeemed. Let's Connect!

   EP6 - Finding Redemption in Sobriety

   💬 Show Notes Hi friends! Welcome to Episode 6 of Broken but Redeemed! I'm your host, Erika, and today, I'm opening up about a subject close to my heart and one that you, our cherished community, have asked to explore: the journey through alcohol dependency to a life of sobriety and reliance on God. From the normalized presence of alcohol in my childhood to using it as a shield against the pain of past trauma, my story with alcohol is a winding road of self-medication and search for solace. But as I share in this episode, my path took a turn when I realized that true peace comes not from the bottom of a glass but from a deep relationship with the Lord. In 2021, I embarked on a faith-based recovery program, and it was there that I began to see the need for change. My dependence shifted from worldly comforts to the steadfast love of God. By 2023, I made the life-altering decision to abstain from alcohol entirely—a choice that would soon be tested by one of life's most challenging seasons: the loss of my father. Through the heartache and the grief, I clung to scripture and the presence of God, refusing to let the temptation of alcohol numb the pain. I discovered that in my weakest moments, God's strength was sufficient, carrying me through the unimaginable and leading me to a place of peace and clarity. This episode is not just my testimony but an invitation for you to reflect on your own struggles and consider the freedom that awaits on the other side of surrender. Whether you're grappling with addiction, grief, or seeking a deeper connection with God, there is hope, and there is a way through. Join me as I recount the scriptures that guided me, the support of loved ones that bolstered me, and the grace of God that transformed me. And remember, no matter the depth of our brokenness, we are all capable of redemption through Christ. So, subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who might be walking a similar path. Let's embrace the beauty of being broken but redeemed, together. ✍️ Episode References 1 Peter 4:3 Galatians 5:19 Quotes from Host (Erika) "God's grace has carried me through the darkest nights, and though the pain may never fully dissipate, I am no longer enslaved by the chains of addiction."

    EP4 - Forgiveness: Embracing Grace and Redemption

    💬 Show Notes Episode 4: The Power of Forgiveness - Embracing Grace and Redemption Hello Friend! I'm eager to share with you a deeply personal testimony that will touch the core of your heart. Welcome to Episode 4 of Broken but Redeemed, titled "Forgiveness - Embracing Grace and Redemption." In this episode, I bear my soul about a painful rift with my father, a wound so deep that forgiveness seemed like an unattainable mirage. Yet, this is a tale of how God’s whisper of grace turned my anger into an anthem of mercy. I'll take you through my internal battle, the divine intervention that halted a vengeful decision, and the gradual, prayerful journey that reshaped my heart. As a mother fiercely protective of her children, I once believed forgiveness was a line drawn in the sand. But through an unexpected lesson in divine love, I learned that forgiveness is not just a gift to the forgiven but a liberating force for the forgiver. Join me as I recount the steps towards healing, the pivotal moments of surrender, and the profound realization that forgiveness is a daily act of faith. Discover how Joseph's biblical story of betrayal and grace mirrors our own struggles and the peace that comes with seeing our pain through God's eyes. If you've ever grappled with the weight of resentment or questioned the possibility of forgiving the seemingly unforgivable, this episode will speak to you. It's a journey of letting go, choosing love over bitterness, and finding freedom in the arms of the One who forgave us first. So, whether you're seeking to mend a fractured relationship or to release the chains of past hurts, let's walk this path together. Let's learn to pray the powerful "help me want to want to" prayer and take steps towards the liberation that awaits us in Christ's unconditional love. As we conclude, I invite you to ponder who you need to forgive and what small step you can take towards that freedom. And remember, through the grace of God, even the most broken stories can be woven into a masterpiece of redemption. So, subscribe, leave a review, and share this beacon of hope with someone in need.

I felt His love wash over me and His grace envelop me. It was a beautiful and transformative moment that I'll never forget. However, as time went on, I found myself struggling to fully surrender my life to Him. Sure, I professed Him as my Savior, but I hesitated to give Him complete control over every aspect of my life.
