In this episode of the Blessed + Bossed Up podcast, we continue our journey through "Battlefield of the Mind" by Joyce Meyer, wrapping up with Wilderness Mentality #8. Tatum reflects on the long journey of this book study, emphasizing the importance of critically evaluating the content we consume and always checking its alignment with the Word of God.
Tatum shares her candid thoughts on how shame often keeps believers from experiencing the fullness of God's blessings and freedom. Drawing from personal reflections and biblical examples, she takes a deep dive into the emotional and spiritual weight of shame, offering a powerful perspective on how to break free from its grip.
Key Topics Discussed:
- Wilderness Mentality #8: "I don't deserve God's blessings because I am not worthy." Tatum explains how this mentality keeps us from receiving God's promises and reflects on Joshua 5:9 and the rolling away of shame from the people of Israel.
- The Influence of Shame on Behavior: Learn about how shame manifests in different behaviors—avoidance, people-pleasing, defensiveness, negative self-talk, fear of intimacy, and even addiction—and how these patterns can hinder our spiritual growth.
- Biblical Stories of Overcoming Shame: Tatum highlights powerful stories of people in the Bible who overcame shame after encountering Jesus:
- The Samaritan Woman at the Well (John 4)
- The Woman Caught in Adultery (John 8)
- Peter's Denial and Restoration (Luke 22, John 21)
- Mary Magdalene's Transformation (Luke 8)
- Zacchaeus’ Repentance (Luke 19)
- Freedom Through Jesus: Tatum encourages listeners to reject the lies of the enemy that keep them bound in shame. Jesus offers love, acceptance, and freedom—just as He did for those in the Bible, He wants to do the same for us today.
