Breaking Free from Shame: Jesus’ Power to Heal
In this episode of the Exploring More Podcast, hosts Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings continue their deep dive into the impact of shame and the path to freedom. Through biblical stories like Peter’s denial of Christ and the woman at the well, they reveal how Jesus confronts and transforms shame—not with judgment, but with love, grace, and restoration.
The conversation explores the harmful effects of shame, particularly when it remains hidden in secrecy and silence. They discuss the importance of confession, empathy, and community support in healing from both personal and sexual shame. Through personal stories and metaphors, they illustrate how shame operates like an unwanted intruder—one that must be exposed and expelled to make room for healing and freedom.
If you’ve ever felt trapped by shame, this episode offers practical steps and spiritual insights to help you break free.
Tune in to Exploring More and discover how Jesus' love and truth can release you from the burden of shame and lead you into a life of freedom.
