Greatest Hits Rerun: Jesus Was Not a Codependent
Greatest Hit Series: This originally aired as Episode 227.So many Christians mix up Christlike love with codependent behavior—but Jesus Himself never rescued people from their consequences, avoided conflict to keep the peace, or ran Himself into burnout trying to fix everyone.In this episode, Corrine and Neil break down why Jesus was NOT codependent, and how understanding His true example can bring more peace, agency, and healthy boundaries into your relationships.They walk through powerful scriptures from Paul’s “thorn in the flesh” to the Sermon on the Mount, that show how Jesus honored agency, let people choose their own path, and taught us to love others without losing ourselves. Corrine also explains how people-pleasing, rescuing, and overgiving keep us stuck in codependent cycles, and what Christ actually modeled instead: clarity, compassion, rest, and perfect love.If you want to learn how to set healthy boundaries, stop over-functioning, or love others in a more Christ-centered way, this conversation will give you hope, relief, and a totally new perspective on what it means to follow Jesus.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

335: Rejection is Protection
In this solo episode, Corrine opens up about what happens when rejection feels personal and how God can use those moments to lovingly redirect us. After being told she “didn’t have enough personality” for a project and feeling out of place at a work event, Corrine realized how quickly we can chase validation from people instead of from God.She shares how the Spirit reminded her not to prove her worth, and how rejection can actually be divine protection. With warmth and honesty, she reflects on God’s “GPS,” how detours often lead to better destinations, and why our value was decided long before anyone’s opinion.This episode is a reminder that even when we feel unseen or misunderstood, God is still guiding the route and His redirection is never a mistake.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
