reSENT The Podcast

Anchor Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-16Episode Focus: Ephesians 4:11-16Something that not much theologians, born again Christians, or even seasoned Christians talk about... the GRIEF of leaving the lifestyle, the people, the environments, the influence, the love, the emotions. It's such an interesting transition from the world into the Kingdom, and at times a painful one, a boring one. We miss what's familiar.. but stay the course, we have to keep going!If we're not careful, grief will walk us right back into the prison we walked out of and that prison is not of one for the Lord, but one of self and for the world.. Grief can either mature you or make you immature.. it can help you build strength or backtrack. It took us how long to walk out, and we're willing to do it again? Don't take that risk, don't overestimate your ability to come back out again. This is call to maturity and a recall to be prisoners for the Lord. Once you feel this grief, you are at the most important place, the step before where God finally reveals the why and you are at the cusp of walking into it, but hold fast & firm in your choices. It may seem that it's best to go back, but doing so is going back on your word, the Word of God, and the future you were so close to attaining. Just in case anyone is tired, wondering after making the tough decisions, and grieiving the steps you took, let this be your encouragement that there is a point that will show itself after you finish grieving! Your strength is in your endurance and the enemy knows it, which is why it's pressing harder on your emotions. Keep firm because God will strip off your grief too!!

Anchor Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-16Episode Focus: Ephesians 4:1-6What is being sacrificed during your stripping process?In this episode, we dive into God's stripping process and the sacrifices required for true transformation. One of the greatest acts of sacrifice during this process is fasting. We explore the true intentions of fasting, its meaning, the do’s & don’ts, and how to approach it in a way that helps your stripping process become fruitful, even in the frustration...Entering the sacrificial act of fasting, is entering Oneness with Christ! "The slower the sacrifice, the faster the death".. If we can just allow God to take His time with us, to take His time in stripping us, then the faster He helps us put to death the past attachments, addictions, hurt, you name it. In that death of self is the acknowledgement of the death of Christ, which comes the recognition of the life that God always had for us. But what have you placed in front of that recognition? That blockade has to be sacrificed to fully walk in the purpose & will of Christ.Topics covered:Sacrificing as surrender to GodThe intentions of fasting and its spiritual powerA Fruitful Fast is entering oneness with ChristFasting as a 'fast track' in the stripping processObedience, Discipline, & TrustHow beautiful it is to be stripped. Though uncomfortable, it is an act we must become accustomed to if we truly desire a strengthened spirit, deeper intimacy with God, and sharper discernment & power to deny our flesh. This conversation unpacks what it means to trust God even in our doubts and skepticism.

Welcome to Season 1: The Stripping! Anchor Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-16Episode Focus: Ephesians 4:1What if the life you’re praying for requires a version of you that you haven't decided to become yet? Have you ever wondered why things were taken away from you when you gave your life to Christ?There is always a moment before our transformation that is prompted and nudged by God for us to make a choice that is pleasing to Him. A moment or reminder that triggers a "stripping" opportunity to finally embark on the call God has for us. Simultaneously, it allows us to see what we value most, who we value most, and where our hearts are devoted to. Everything is revealed before God, but the stripping reveals everything to us!Through a brief raw personal story, this episode explores:The triggering moments where God gets your attentionHow God uses reminders and opportunities to prompt changeWhy obedience starts with a decisionThe tension between your will & God’s willWhat happens when you ignore God; and how conviction redirects youWhy you can’t avoid the process—you have to go through itIf you’re in a season of transition, conviction, or feeling called to something greater.. this is for you! You don’t get sent or reSENT without being stripped first!

Welcome to Season 1: The Stripping! Anchor Scripture for the Season: Ephesians 4:1-16In this first official season of reSENT The Podcast, we will discuss the stripping process God takes us through to remove false identities, habits, attachments, and whatever has created distance between us & Christ. There is a calling we all individually have, a version of ourselves that is so precious to His Kingdom and valuable to the body of Christ, but we cannot carry these chains covered in culture, and expect our calling not to be covered too… God has to shed us, refine us, and uncover us into who we truly are and were meant to be. “The Stripping” clothes you in strength, dignity, & grace -- come & get stripped!!!

A testimony dating back to 2023 of how God reclaimed Jié from a world he built on validation from others. In this 2nd (& last) preseason episode, Jié looks back at the evidence in his life before being called, but recognizes the call that has always been there, but never answered. Jié retraces the events that led him to where he is now and how God has literally reSENT him. Jié prays this is an episode where listeners can take the time to reflect on where God has been calling you, and whether you have decided to answer the call or continue letting it ring out. The answer to our deepest desires and deepest struggles are in the call we are avoiding and the opportunity we aren't viewing as one... God bless you!

In this first preseason episode, we dive into the origins of 'reSENT The Podcast' and how God navigated us here. What is 'reSENT'? What is its significance? What is the goal of the podcast? Enjoy the stories, the tangents, the lessons, and the heart of Jié starting this 'reSENT' journey in an act of obedience. We pray you will be richly blessed as we all learn how to be sent again from this and the coming seasons & episodes!
