21. A Story of Redemption, Identity & Unshakable Hope

If you’ve ever wondered whether your past disqualifies you from living in freedom or being used by God, this episode is for you.

Join us as we discuss the extraordinary, deeply moving story of the life of Mary Magdalene. We will examine what scripture tells us about her encounter with Jesus and the beautiful transformation that took place from that moment forward. We reflect on the pain, shame, and spiritual battles she must have endured—and how her life was radically changed by the compassion of Jesus.

Together, we’ll explore:

• The redemptive power of Jesus to completely restore what was once broken.
  
  
• Why our identity is not defined by what we’ve done, but by who He says we are.
  
  
• How Mary went from being tormented and cast aside… to being the first witness of the resurrection...the one entrusted with the greatest news ever told.
  
  
• What it means to sever ourselves from past shame and step into purpose, even when we feel unworthy.

There’s no depth too dark, no past too heavy, and no pain too consuming that Jesus cannot redeem.
