This week, we will reflect on episodes 1-9.

The PC team is fasting this week, and you are welcome to join us. We will meditate on Hebrews 11 & Hebrews 12. We’re praying for strengthened faith and clarity and revelation on our journey, and into the next.

Thank you for your continued support. We love you from the bottom of your hearts.

PC Corporate Consecration:

We will fast from 3am-4pm daily, and No eating during that time but be in constant meditation on the word of God. (If you must have something to hold you over or have special needs for your medical health, please stick to fruit & veggie only, and do not over indulge.)No eating after 8pm at night.

Please seek diligently, and remember to feast on the living & Holy word of God as temptation arises. Remember, and be encouraged that anytime temptation is present, there also lies an escape. Here are a few scriptures to go by;

•1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.”

•Matthew 26:41 “Keep watch and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak!”

•James 1:12 “God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.”

On this week's episode, Jae discusses the discomfort of addressing a sensitive topic, and the conviction she experienced to talk about it. Sexual immorality can have a great affect on one's life, and in this case Jae shares how it started in her childhood, led to enslavement, lustful addiction, spiritual blindness, and many other strongholds. The importance of transparency and deliverance from sexual sin is emphasized, along with the spiritual significance of being hidden in Christ, rather than hiding in crisis. This episode is "unorthodox" and doesn't agree with the ways of culture, but is Biblically sound, and rooted in faith.

_You are not alone.

If you're struggling with sexual immorality or sexual addiction, please know that you are not alone and there is no shame in seeking help. God's grace is sufficient, and healing is possible through him.

In this week's episode, Jae brings back Pastor Freddie Cole Sr, closing off the conversation on how un-forgiveness will keep you bound, and now highlighting the benefits of forgiveness. There is a divine nature of forgiveness and it has a life changing impact on others. The command from Christ was to love and forgive portraying being made in his image. True forgiveness gives us a heightened experience of intimacy with God because of it's lightness and is commonality characteristic of holiness. While it can be a challenge, there is also healing power of forgiveness. The reward of forgiving is much greater and more satisfying than not forgiving. The act of forgiving comes with the realization that everyone deserves mercy as self does. To heal we learn to identify that we are indeed hurt, and seek true healing from the one who holds all power.

Takeaways

• Forgiveness is essential for success and moving forward.
• Forgiveness is a characteristic of holiness and is necessary for true peace.
• Forgiveness is vital for spiritual growth
