And yet, we daily make decisions based on fear, not faith. In Faith Over Fear, author and speaker Jennifer Slattery helps us see different areas of life where fear has ... more

  • Disappointed

    I’ve been listening for a while, and enjoying this podcast until recently when it started to feel right-leaning. And then to announce before an episode that you aren’t political, just faith based, and then proceed with an inflammatory political episode? That made me lose faith in the direction of this podcast. Disappointing and unsubscribing.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Recognizing and Breaking Free from Harmful Relationships
Q: Excellent question with so many tentacles, Jennifer. What are the core ideas behind recognizing unhealthy patterns, and how do you begin to untangle motivation?
We start by studying what healthy relationships look like through scripture and real examples, then build awareness of patterns like love bombing, control, and projection. The goal is to understand our own motives, not just diagnose the other person, so we can establish boundaries and seek God's transformation in us.
From Bondage to Abundance: One Woman's Testimony About Learning to Live Free
Q: What do you do when you face hardship or temptation?
She turns to the scriptures, uses a personal first aid kit of Bible verses, and reaches out to her prayer circle for support.
From Bondage to Abundance: One Woman's Testimony About Learning to Live Free
Q: So do you still struggle?
Yes, she continues to struggle with eating, stress, and anxious feelings, but relies on scripture, prayer, and a supportive prayer team to stay grounded.
How God Helps Us Get to and Resolve the Root of Our Anxiety
Q: Okay. With that being said, what's one or two practical steps that we can encourage listeners to take to get closer to the root of their distress?
Recognize when to dive in and when to step back, then use a multi-engine approach: address physical needs (sleep, diet), reframe and replace limiting beliefs, seek relational bonding, and engage spiritual practices to invite healing.
Break Free from Shame: Carol McCracken’s Story of Freedom and Restoration
Q: How long did the cravings take to go, and what helped you through that process?
Cravings were persistent and varied over time, but they gradually faded as I leaned into 12-step structure, ongoing accountability, and the spiritual renewal of understanding my identity in Christ. It wasn't instant; there was a daily choice to pursue recovery and rely on community and God's help.
