God Given Emotion: Letting Go of Shame

In this episode of The Healthy Christian Podcast, we’re talking about one of the most misunderstood emotions: shame. Is shame from God? Or is it something He wants to free us from? Join us as we explore the difference between shame, guilt, and conviction, and how to walk through hard moments without letting negative emotions take root.

Rooted in Romans 10:11, we unpack how conviction draws us closer to God while shame causes us to hide. Through honest reflection and practical steps, you’ll learn how to stop shame from shaping your identity and start experiencing the healing freedom that God offers.

Main takeaway:
Shame is not from God. Conviction leads to healing, but shame keeps you stuck. Don’t sit in shame—release it, bring it to God, and allow Him to exchange it for peace, joy, and restoration.

Challenge this week: Spend time alone with God and ask: “Is there anything I’m still holding onto—any shame or guilt I need to release?” Give it to Him and invite healing.
