Deception — it's a powerful force that can distort our reality, affecting our relationships and overall well-being. Join Megan Ashley as she talks about "The Truman Show," and how she couldn't help but see parallels between Truman's life and her own struggles with identity in Christ, depression, and anxiety. This movie served as a catalyst to an exploration of the enemy's deceitful tactics, and how the power of truth can set us free.Much like Truman, we are often deceived from a young age. The enemy observes our habits, distorting our perception of reality to suit its sinister plans. Yet, we can overcome this through faith, as demonstrated by Truman's profound journey. Alongside the narrative of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, these stories offer valuable lessons about recognizing and pursuing our God-given desires, and the courage it takes to confront the chaos the enemy tries to create in our lives.We're all susceptible to deception, especially when it comes to relationships and decision-making. However, embracing the wisdom in God's word can help us avoid falling into these traps.Don't let the enemy deceive you - seek the truth, and let it set you free!Other topics you will hear:-Truth-Decision-making-Anxiety-Depression-Patterns-God-given desires-Relationships-Faith -CourageConnect with us:  @immeganashleyWebsite: https://www.themeganashley.com Youtube: In Totality  In Totality with Megan Ashley Is edited and produced by Idea to Launch PodcastsSign up for our PATREON for EXCLUSIVE access and additional:https://www.patreon.com/meganashleySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Join Megan Ashley she shares personal stories and experiences, shedding light on the significance of releasing offenses and finding freedom through forgiving ourselves. In the episode we refer to a powerful devotional by Jackie Hill Perry, which emphasizes forgiveness as a path to redemption and becoming a 'new creature'. We further illuminate the discussion by examining the story of Joseph from the Bible, who forgave his brothers despite their betrayal.In our quest to understand the complexities of forgiveness, we underscore the importance of letting go of the past and seeing ourselves through God's eyes, to avoid falling into the trap of self-condemnation. The spiritual hindrance unforgiveness can bring, and the barriers it can erect in our relationship with God and his promises. With references to David's angry words towards God, I encourage listeners to acknowledge their anger, release it, and choose forgiveness. This episode is a heartfelt call to healing and freedom through the power and necessity of forgiveness.Other topics you will hear:-Healing-Spiritual Growth-Resentment-Power of Forgiveness -Releasing Offenses-Freedom-Self-Doubt-Divine WisdomThank you to our sponsors: L'Oreal Paris Discover the new L'Oreal Paris Bright Reveal Dark Spot Duo!
