During the episode, Samantha shares a profound truth: “If you claim that God is good, then He must be good in your past, present, and future.”

Reflective Quote: “Our ego wants us to defend what we think we know and remember, if I’m wrong , is my whole life a lie? We’re too tied to the past, thats why we can’t fathom letting our part of the story go.”

We pray that after listening to this episode you will decide to no longer be a victim of your past. We pray that God gives you the courage to face your past and rewrite your story from Christ’s perspective.

“The latest research on memory says that memory is creative. 50% of the story we embellish as people is made up. We have the habit of doing that because we can use it to excuse ourselves from changing. We make our past sound worse than it really was. … Unfortunately, the stories we make become our identity.” – Dr. Joe Dispenza
