    Break Free from Codependency By Giving God The Rope
    Nov 25 2024
    Are you caught in a relentless tug-of-war with injustice that’s stealing your peace and joy? When we’re trapped in codependency, we often unknowingly surrender our power to others, making it difficult to confront injustice and leaving us emotionally and spiritually drained. We feel powerless, we lose our joy, and sometimes, we even fight against God instead of allowing Him to step in. But here’s the good news: we have a powerful choice in God-dependency. Through Christ’s faithfulness, we can let go of the struggle and trust God to bring true justice and healing. In today’s episode of Conquering Codependency God’s Way, learn how to release the rope, let God work, and experience the joy of watching Him set things right. Discover how flourishing in His love is the ultimate justice. Ready to find peace and strength in God’s hands? Join me in today’s episode!

  • Healing from Emotional Abuse: Conquering the Mountain of Shame

    Healing from Emotional Abuse: Conquering the Mountain of Shame
    Nov 12 2024
    Emotional abuse leaves deep, unseen wounds that can feel like one of the toughest mountains to climb on your healing journey. The words and actions of others plant seeds of shame, burying hidden triggers that disrupt your sense of worth and identity as God’s child. Unlike visible physical wounds, emotional wounds are often ignored, leaving the pain lingering beneath the surface. In today’s episode of Conquering Codependency God’s Way, we explore how these powerful messages impact your life and why taking God’s hand can lead to true healing and freedom. Jesus Himself spoke to the depth of emotional hurt, equating words of harm to physical damage (Matthew 5:21-22). When you take that courageous step toward validation and then let God guide you, this journey becomes your opportunity to break free from toxic patterns for good. Are you ready for a breakthrough? Listen now, and please share this message to help others find their path to healing.

    Healing Strategies - The Tribe interviews Dr. Michelle Bengtson (Conquer Codependency God's Way)
    Oct 18 2024
    At times, our healing journey may seem to reveal more questions than it provides answers which clashes with the codependency desire to be in control. However, it was through these questions that we can discovered deeper layers of healing. As we navigate this path with God at the helm, we learn to embrace uncertainty as a companion rather than an adversary. Along the way, we meet fellow travelers, each with their own stories and questions reminding us that we are never truly alone. In today’s message I’ve invited Treasured Tribe Members to ask Dr. Michelle Bengtson their questions about the healing process of transforming our wounds into scars.

  • Find Hope to Dream Again

    Find Hope to Dream Again
    Aug 27 2024
    Are You Still Dreaming?Listen to Our Podcast Below or Watch on YouTube.

    What if your dreams, buried under layers of fear, could find new life? What if that sense of adventure was God’s invitation to rediscover hope and dream anew?

    There was a time in my life that I falsely concluded that the dream God put in my heart had died. Dismissing my dream served as a defense mechanism against the potential disappointment that may arise from a dream that seemed lost.

    Can you relate?

    But what if your dream, like mine, never died? It fell to the ground, laying dormant for a period, allowing for a grander dream to take shape. What if the vision bestowed upon you by God in the past is destined to come to fruition? What if you could dare to dream again?

    I believe you can – and you must. Your dream matters. Your heart matters.

    In today’s teaching message, find hope to dream again.

    ONWARD,

    Aliene
