Wellness + Worship: A Chat With Janet Massey
03/19/24 • 39 min
The quest for soundness of mind and health of body is age old. These days, we are inundated by information that has gotten ever more vast and can seem ever more complicated. Be encouraged to know it can become more and more simple. Don't hear me say it is easy or that there are quick "fix-its", but after seeking to control our mind and health, today's guest, Janet Massey and I are learning the power of the Word of Truth in conjunction with kind movement and looking to Jesus. It has been absolutely transformational. Consider Hebrews 12:1-4 and Romans 12:1-2. In both scriptures, we are given keys to unlocking our well being!
With a doctorate in Physical Therapy and a whole lot of life experience with physical limitations and the connection of wellness and faith, Janet has knowledge and expertise that is encouraging and enlightening. In today's episode, Janet shares a bit of her story which is truly remarkable, and practical and simple thoughts about how to move toward more wellness in mind, soul, and body. We are meant to live in wholeness in Christ.
We chat a little bit about all sorts of things that you've probably heard about - somatics, lymph massage, meditation, breathing. We touch on a lot of things that can be overwhelming and can often put us into either an avoidant or over functioning state! Yes, there is a lot of good science, but the methods and opinions and information seem endless right now. We talk about how intentional stress exposure, such as the shock of cold-water immersion, can teach our bodies to remain composed under pressure, and how such practices, coupled with faith, can fortify our capability to heal and grow. This episode sheds light on the often-overlooked connection between physical discomfort, spiritual strength, and the art of remaining present through life's challenges.

Temptation: Brief Scriptural Exhortation
Temptation is actually a gift! We enter into the abundance of what God has for us as we use temptation to illuminate where we need healing and more of the strength of God in our lives.
This follow-up podcast is a brief scriptural support of the conversation with Bill Bedell on temptation. We need the Word of God to know how to stand against temptation. We are given the mind of Christ, but many of us do not know the Truth to fight with. This brief encouragement gives handles to hold onto in your own battle with temptation. It's packed with Scripture and you'll find it an encouragement.

Wellness + Worship: A Brief Scriptural Exhortation
How does one tap into the abundant life promised in scripture, and what does it mean to walk in true wellness through Christ? It is truly WAY more simple than you think. We receive it. We receive the wellness he has for us this moment. Nothing more, nothing less. Then DESPITE what this external realm throws at us, our feelings, even our behaviors, our stubborn patterns or neural gaps, we can walk with more and more confidence as the new creatures we are in Christ. We only have this moment, and we are called to love God and others in it. We can indeed receive what we need to do this presently. Please contact me for a conversation or scripture references or prayer.
