Positive affirmations vs. God’s truth—and why renewing your mind changes everything. Are positive affirmations actually helping—or just making us feel better for a minute?

In this episode, I unpack the difference between positive thinking and true mind renewal. We talk about toxic positivity, capturing your thoughts, and why God’s truth doesn’t just encourage you—it rewires your brain, reshapes your heart, and reforms your life.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in fear, shame, or old thought patterns and wondered why “just think positive” isn’t working… this one’s for you.

Inside the episode:

• Why positive affirmations fall flat (and when they can help)
• The neuroscience + Scripture behind renewing your mind
• How lies quietly shape your experience of life
• Why optimism alone isn’t enough—but hope anchored in Christ is
• What it actually means to “take every thought captive”
• How mind, body, and spirit work together in real transformation

This isn’t about denying reality or slapping Bible verses over pain.
It’s about replacing lies with truth—and experiencing the hope, love, and joy of a life in Christ.

🎧 Listen now and start practicing mind renewal that actually changes how you live.
