size:30% I go back to 00:01:50.710 --> 00:01:51.845 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% many times throughout the year 00:01:51.911 --> 00:01:52.979 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% and revisit. 00:01:53.046 --> 00:01:54.047 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% And I think many people 00:01:54.113 --> 00:01:55.248 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% are going to feel the same. 00:01:55.315 --> 00:01:56.416 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% But I want to start first 00:01:56.483 --> 00:01:57.617 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% by unpacking just a little bit 00:01:57.684 --> 00:01:58.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% about your life, your journey, 00:01:58.785 --> 00:02:00.053 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% and how

therapist. 00:02:03.223 --> 00:02:04.491 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% ANITA: I think everybody 00:02:04.557 --> 00:02:05.558 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% in trauma therapy got there 00:02:05.625 --> 00:02:07.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% because of their own trauma. 00:02:07.327 --> 00:02:08.428 align:start line:63% position:10% size:18% I think 00:02:08.495 --> 00:02:09.562 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73% we're kind of led by our pain 00:02:09.629 --> 00:02:10.697 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50% to find that healing 00:02:10.763 --> 00:02:11.731 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33% for ourselves 00:02:11.798 --> 00:02:12.765 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43% and other people. 00:02:12.832 --> 00:02:13.900 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% For me, it began in childhood. 00:02:13.967 --> 00:02:14.968 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48% I'm a pastor's kid, 00:02:15.034 --> 00:02:16.436 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50% a pastor's grandkid. 00:02:16.503 --> 00:02:17.570 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% But that wasn't the trauma. 00:02:17.637 --> 00:02:18.872 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% TAMMY: Are you sure? 00:02:18.938 --> 00:02:20.039 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% ANITA: I'm sure. 00:02:20.106 --> 00:02:21.174 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% I was really blessed 00:02:21.241 --> 00:02:22.342 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% in that area. 00:02:22.408 --> 00:02:23.510 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% But I had an older sister 00:02:23.576 --> 00:02:24.677 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% who developed the symptoms 00:02:24.744 --> 00:02:25.879 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% of a serious mental illness 00:02:25.945 --> 00:02:27.146 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% when she was still very young. 00:02:27.213 --> 00:02:28.248 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% And so we shared a bedroom. 00:02:28.314 --> 00:02:29.349 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% And when I was about six 00:02:29.415 --> 00:02:30.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% and she was about 11 or 12, 00:02:30.717 --> 00:02:31.818 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% she woke up 00:02:31.885 --> 00:02:32.986 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% in the middle of the night 00:02:33.052 --> 00:02:34.153 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% one night screaming -- 00:02:34.220 --> 00:02:35.255 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% just screaming. 00:02:35.321 --> 00:02:36.356 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% Her eyes were wide open. 00:02:36.422 --> 00:02:37.524 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% She's staring 00:02:37.590 --> 00:02:38.625 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% at our bedroom door, 00:02:38.691 --> 00:02:39.726 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% and she says, 00:02:39.792 --> 00:02:40.827 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% "Anita, there's a demon 00:02:40.894 --> 00:02:41.928 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% in the door." 00:02:41.995 --> 00:02:43.029 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% Well, hey! 00:02:43.096 --> 00:02:44.163 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% This is a real possibility. 00:02:44.230 --> 00:02:45.265 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% We are Christians, 00:02:45.331 --> 00:02:46.366 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% we understand 00:02:46.432 --> 00:02:47.467 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% spiritual attacks and warfare. 00:02:47.534 --> 00:02:48.601 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% So I thought, 00:02:48.668 --> 00:02:49.702 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% maybe that's true 00:02:49.769 --> 00:02:50.904 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% but it is still terrifying. 00:02:50.970 --> 00:02:51.938 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% My parents 00:02:52.005 --> 00:02:53.006 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% heard her screaming. 00:02:53.072 --> 00:02:54.040 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% They woke up, they came, 00:02:54.107 --> 00:02:55.108 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% they prayed, and eventually, 00:02:55.174 --> 00:02:56.142 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% she peaked at the door 00:02:56.209 --> 00:02:57.210 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% and she didn't see 00:02:57.277 --> 00:02:58.244 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% this demon anymore. 00:02:58.311 --> 00:02:59.279 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% And we thought that's it! 00:02:59.345 --> 00:03:00.346 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% It's done. 00:03:00.413 --> 00:03:01.381 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% But in the weeks 00:03:01.447 --> 00:03:02.448 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% and the months to come 00:03:02.515 --> 00:03:03.483 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% it would happen 00:03:03.550 --> 00:03:04.551 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% again and again, 00:03:04.617 --> 00:03:05.585 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% and it became hard for me 00:03:05.652 --> 00:03:06.653 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23% to sleep. 00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:07.687 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% I had a certain anxiousness 00:03:07.754 --> 00:03:08.755 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% that I would wake up 00:03:08.821 --> 00:03:09.822 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% to these screams. 00:03:09.889 --> 00:03:11.124 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% So that was an early trauma 00:03:11.190 --> 00:03:12.158 align:start line:85% position:10% size:18% for me. 00:03:12.225 --> 00:03:13.192 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% And eventually, 00:03:13.259 --> 00:03:14.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% it did seem to quiet. 00:03:14.327 --> 00:03:15.295 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% But actually what happened was 00:03:15.361 --> 00:03:16.362 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% someone in the neighborhood 00:03:16.429 --> 00:03:17.463 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% introduced her to drugs 00:03:17.530 --> 00:03:18.464 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% and she found out 00:03:18.531 --> 00:03:19.499 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% that it quieted the voices 00:03:19.566 --> 00:03:20.533 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% we didn't know 00:03:20.600 --> 00:03:21.568 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% she was hearing. 00:03:21.634 --> 00:03:22.602 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% It stopped the hallucinations. 00:03:22.669 --> 00:03:23.636 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% And that's too much 00:03:23.703 --> 00:03:24.671 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% for any child to resist, 00:03:24.737 --> 00:03:25.705 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% of course, 00:03:25.772 --> 00:03:26.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% that torment being quieted. 00:03:26.806 --> 00:03:27.774 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% And unfortunately, 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:28.841 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% she became addicted 00:03:28.908 --> 00:03:29.943 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% to those drugs 00:03:30.009 --> 00:03:31.010 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% and lost decades of her life 00:03:31.077 --> 00:03:32.111 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% on the streets. 00:03:32.178 --> 00:03:33.179 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% And so, as I was growing up 00:03:33.246 --> 00:03:34.280 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% watching my parents 00:03:34.347 --> 00:03:35.348 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% ministering to others 00:03:35.415 --> 00:03:36.449 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% but weep at home 00:03:36.516 --> 00:03:37.517 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% about what was going on 00:03:37.584 --> 00:03:38.618 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% with my older sister, Valerie, 00:03:38.685 --> 00:03:39.752 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% I wanted to know, 00:03:39.819 --> 00:03:41.020 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% what is happening here? 00:03:41.087 --> 00:03:43.456 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% So I was led into this field 00:03:43.523 --> 00:03:45.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% to explain how people suffer, 00:03:45.158 --> 00:03:46.259 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% how they break, 00:03:46.326 --> 00:03:47.327 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% and how we get better. 00:03:47.393 --> 00:03:48.428 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% But I also had 00:03:48.494 --> 00:03:50.129 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% a persistent question for God, 00:03:50.196 --> 00:03:52.265 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% what does your Bible teach us 00:03:52.332 --> 00:03:53.533 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% about human behavior? 00:03:53.600 --> 00:03:54.801 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% About the understanding 00:03:54.867 --> 00:03:55.935 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% of who we are, 00:03:56.002 --> 00:03:57.136 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% how we were made? 00:03:57.203 --> 00:03:58.538 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% Because he's the creator. 00:03:58.605 --> 00:03:59.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% And I was told 00:03:59.806 --> 00:04:00.974 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% by lots of smart people 00:04:01.040 --> 00:04:02.175 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% that the Bible didn't speak 00:04:02.241 --> 00:04:03.376 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% to these things 00:04:03.443 --> 00:04:04.510 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% but I never believed it. 00:04:04.577 --> 00:04:05.645 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% And it turns out 00:04:05.712 --> 00:04:06.713 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% I was right to trust God 00:04:06.779 --> 00:04:08.481 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% because it is in the book. 00:04:08.548 --> 00:04:09.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% TAMMY: I'm so glad 00:04:09.782 --> 00:04:10.717 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% you didn't believe it! 00:04:10.783 --> 00:04:12.752 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% And I'm so glad you dug in. 00:04:12.819 --> 00:04:13.786 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% You talk so much 00:04:13.853 --> 00:04:14.854 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% about emotions 00:04:14.921 --> 00:04:16.623 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% which is a huge topic for me 00:04:16.689 --> 00:04:18.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% because I'm an emotional girl. 00:04:18.157 --> 00:04:19.692 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% And I love that. 00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:21.160 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% A therapist said good 00:04:21.227 --> 00:04:22.328 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38% to my emotions. 00:04:22.395 --> 00:04:23.429 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48% I love that so much 00:04:23.496 --> 00:04:24.597 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% because I think I've been told 00:04:24.664 --> 00:04:26.232 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% so many times in my life, 00:04:26.299 --> 00:04:27.500 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55% "You're too emotional. 00:04:27.567 -->

00:04:31.604 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% I don't even know 00:04:31.671 --> 00:04:32.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% how it developed if it's 00:04:32.805 --> 00:04:33.873 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% just always been there. 00:04:33.940 --> 00:04:35.008 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% Maybe you can tell me today 00:04:35.074 --> 00:04:36.242 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% and I can send you a check. 00:04:36.309 --> 00:04:37.377 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% [Laughing] 00:04:37.443 --> 00:04:38.611 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% But I feel like, I always say, 00:04:38.678 --> 00:04:39.812 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% my emotions are right here 00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:41.114 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% and so is my giggle. 00:04:41.180 --> 00:04:42.315 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% Like my joy, 00:04:42.382 --> 00:04:44.484 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% it's so close to the surface 00:04:44.550 --> 00:04:45.885 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% all the time. 00:04:45.952 --> 00:04:48.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% What do you say to somebody 00:04:48.554 --> 00:04:49.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% that has been told 00:04:50.023 --> 00:04:52.291 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% that your emotions are bad. 00:04:52.358 --> 00:04:53.559 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% How do you -- and you went 00:04:53.626 --> 00:04:54.794 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% into the Word of God 00:04:54.861 --> 00:04:55.895 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% to find out are they bad 00:04:55.962 --> 00:04:56.929 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% or are they good? 00:04:56.996 --> 00:04:58.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% Did Jesus have emotions? 00:04:58.097 --> 00:04:59.198 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% ANITA: Jesus was 00:04:59.265 --> 00:05:00.333 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% extremely emotional. 00:05:00.400 --> 00:05:01.467 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% And this is 00:05:01.534 --> 00:05:02.535 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% what was so exciting 00:05:02.602 --> 00:05:03.569 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% about this journey. 00:05:03.636 --> 00:05:04.637 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% Because even though 00:05:04.704 --> 00:05:05.805 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% I was in scripture trying 00:05:05.872 --> 00:05:06.973 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% to understand my sister's 00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:08.107 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60% illness, the Holy Spirit 00:05:08.174 --> 00:05:09.208 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% in all his wisdom took me 00:05:09.275 --> 00:05:10.276 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58% to understand wellness. 00:05:10.343 --> 00:05:11.344 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53% What did it look like 00:05:11.411 --> 00:05:12.412 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45% for us to be well? 00:05:12.478 --> 00:05:13.479 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% You can't fix something that's 00:05:13.546 --> 00:05:14.547 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48% broken if you don't 00:05:14.614 --> 00:05:15.581 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60% know what it looked like 00:05:15.648 --> 00:05:16.616 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40% before it broke. 00:05:16.683 --> 00:05:17.684 align:start line:63% position:10% size:25% Otherwise, 00:05:17.750 --> 00:05:18.751 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60% you're just guessing and 00:05:18.818 --> 00:05:19.819 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70% a lot of times in psychology 00:05:19.886 --> 00:05:20.853 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53% and as professionals, 00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:21.888 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53% without God's insight 00:05:21.954 --> 00:05:22.922 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35% we're guessing 00:05:22.989 --> 00:05:24.023 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70% on what it means to be well. 00:05:24.090 --> 00:05:25.224 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58% What the Lord showed me 00:05:25.291 --> 00:05:26.392 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58% was that he designed us 00:05:26.459 --> 00:05:27.627 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% like gardens. 00:05:27.694 --> 00:05:28.795 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% When I was taking 00:05:28.861 --> 00:05:29.929 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% a neuroscience class 00:05:29.996 --> 00:05:30.963 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% in grad school 00:05:31.030 --> 00:05:31.964 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% for the first time 00:05:32.031 --> 00:05:33.099 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% I saw a picture of a neuron 00:05:33.166 --> 00:05:34.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% and that neuron 00:05:34.200 --> 00:05:35.401 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% looked like like a seedling. 00:05:35.468 --> 00:05:36.469 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% And I was so shocked. 00:05:36.536 --> 00:05:37.670 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% I said, Man, 00:05:37.737 --> 00:05:38.838 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% if I believe in the God 00:05:38.905 --> 00:05:40.106 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% of my Sunday School book, 00:05:40.173 --> 00:05:41.174 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% that created the heavens 00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:42.208 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% and the earth, 00:05:42.275 --> 00:05:43.576 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% who made plants on day three, 00:05:43.643 --> 00:05:45.078 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% and us on day six, 00:05:45.144 --> 00:05:47.580 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% I can't avoid the truth 00:05:47.647 --> 00:05:48.881 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% of these plants and neurons 00:05:48.948 --> 00:05:50.083 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% looking alike. 00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:51.284 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% And so I believed 00:05:51.350 --> 00:05:52.351 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% that God was being intentional 00:05:52.418 --> 00:05:53.519 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% because that's his character. 00:05:53.586 --> 00:05:54.687 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% And so I dove 00:05:54.754 --> 00:05:55.822 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% into scripture saying, 00:05:55.888 --> 00:05:56.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% why would he talk about plants 00:05:57.023 --> 00:05:58.124 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% the way he does with us? 00:05:58.191 --> 00:05:59.292 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% We'll be like a tree 00:05:59.358 --> 00:06:00.493 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% planted by rivers of water. 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:02.161 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% I'll plant you in a good land. 00:06:02.228 --> 00:06:03.463 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% Isaiah 58:11 says, "You'll be 00:06:03.529 --> 00:06:05.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% a well-watered garden." 00:06:05.098 --> 00:06:06.199 align:start line:85% position:10% size:18% I said, 00:06:06.265 --> 00:06:07.300 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% "My gosh, he meant it!" 00:06:07.366 --> 00:06:09.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% Because inside of us 00:06:09.102 --> 00:06:10.203 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% our nervous system 00:06:10.269 --> 00:06:11.571 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% is modeled after plants, 00:06:11.637 --> 00:06:12.772 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% and we are gardens. 00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:13.906 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% And in the parable 00:06:13.973 --> 00:06:15.007 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% of the sower, Jesus puts 00:06:15.074 --> 00:06:16.142 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% all the pieces together. 00:06:16.209 --> 00:06:17.243 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% He talks about a sower 00:06:17.310 --> 00:06:18.711 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% going out and sowing seeds. 00:06:18.778 --> 00:06:20.079 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% Those seeds are words. 00:06:20.146 --> 00:06:21.647 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% They fall on the soil. 00:06:21.714 --> 00:06:22.949 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% Jesus says the soil 00:06:23.015 --> 00:06:24.283 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% is the heart. 00:06:24.350 --> 00:06:25.451 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% Depending on 00:06:25.518 --> 00:06:26.586 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% the emotional state, 00:06:26.652 --> 00:06:27.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% Jesus describes 00:06:27.787 --> 00:06:28.788 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% the different soil types 00:06:28.855 --> 00:06:30.323 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% based on joy, anger, and fear. 00:06:30.389 --> 00:06:31.557 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% Depending on 00:06:31.624 --> 00:06:32.592 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% the emotional state, 00:06:32.658 --> 00:06:33.626 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% the seed's growth is affected. 00:06:33.693 --> 00:06:34.694 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% Then the plant, 00:06:34.761 --> 00:06:35.828 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% that's the mind, 00:06:35.895 --> 00:06:36.929 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% that's why neurons 00:06:36.996 --> 00:06:37.964 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% look like plants. 00:06:38.030 --> 00:06:39.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% And then the fruit 00:06:39.098 --> 00:06:40.199 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% is what we do. 00:06:40.266 --> 00:06:41.367 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% Seed, soil, plant, fruit; 00:06:41.434 --> 00:06:42.735 align:start line:85% position:10%

that simple. 00:06:45.671 --> 00:06:46.906 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% And so when we recognize 00:06:46.973 --> 00:06:48.708 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% that the heart is the soil 00:06:48.775 --> 00:06:50.710 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% of our lives then it means 00:06:50.777 --> 00:06:52.011 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% what's going on with me 00:06:52.078 --> 00:06:53.112 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% emotionally, 00:06:53.179 --> 00:06:54.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% my emotional well-being

--> 00:10:15.281 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53% that his friend died. 00:10:15.348 --> 00:10:16.382 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68% And some said that he's sad 00:10:16.449 --> 00:10:17.416 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58% because he was thinking 00:10:17.483 --> 00:10:18.451 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43% of his own death. 00:10:18.517 --> 00:10:19.485 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58% Whatever reason it was, 00:10:19.552 --> 00:10:21.120 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65% they weren't tears of joy. 00:10:21.187 --> 00:10:22.221 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% He was crying. 00:10:22.288 --> 00:10:23.322 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% Even though he knew 00:10:23.389 --> 00:10:24.457 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% he was about to raise Lazarus 00:10:24.523 --> 00:10:25.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% from the dead, 00:10:25.691 --> 00:10:26.659 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% even though he knew 00:10:26.726 --> 00:10:27.693 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% his father was going 00:10:27.760 --> 00:10:28.694 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% to raise him? 00:10:28.761 --> 00:10:29.929 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% Just because you have faith 00:10:29.996 --> 00:10:31.030 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% for the outcome doesn't mean 00:10:31.097 --> 00:10:32.164 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% you don't have pain 00:10:32.231 --> 00:10:33.299 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% in the process. 00:10:33.366 --> 00:10:34.800 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% And Jesus expressed the pain 00:10:34.867 --> 00:10:36.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% of the process 00:10:36.102 --> 00:10:37.036 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% because he was wearing 00:10:37.103 --> 00:10:39.038 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% a human body. 00:10:39.105 --> 00:10:40.473 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% Just like us! 00:10:40.539 --> 00:10:41.907 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% We see him so listen, 00:10:41.974 --> 00:10:44.610 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% we go tears at Lazarus's tomb, 00:10:44.677 --> 00:10:45.811 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% raises him from the dead. 00:10:45.878 --> 00:10:46.879 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% We see him flipping tables 00:10:46.946 --> 00:10:48.080 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% in the temple when he's angry. 00:10:48.147 --> 00:10:50.483 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% I mean, he went off. 00:10:50.549 --> 00:10:51.584 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% And then people flow 00:10:51.650 --> 00:10:52.585 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% into the temple 00:10:52.651 --> 00:10:53.753 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% and he heals their bodies. 00:10:53.819 --> 00:10:55.154 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% In Gethsemane we see him 00:10:55.221 --> 00:10:56.622 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% distressed beyond measure. 00:10:56.689 --> 00:10:58.024 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% He is crying out to God, 00:10:58.090 --> 00:10:59.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% the book of Hebrews says 00:10:59.158 --> 00:11:00.993 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% with loud crying and tears, 00:11:01.060 --> 00:11:02.228 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% he sought his father 00:11:02.294 --> 00:11:03.362 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% who could save him from death. 00:11:03.429 --> 00:11:04.497 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% He's really crying. 00:11:04.563 --> 00:11:05.965 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% And then a few minutes later 00:11:06.032 --> 00:11:07.066 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% after he strengthened, 00:11:07.133 --> 00:11:08.167 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% he walks down 00:11:08.234 --> 00:11:09.235 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% and says, I am he 00:11:09.301 --> 00:11:10.302 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% to the soldiers 00:11:10.369 --> 00:11:11.370 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% who came to get him, 00:11:11.437 --> 00:11:12.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% and knocks them 00:11:12.505 --> 00:11:13.506 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% off their feet. 00:11:13.572 --> 00:11:14.573 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% Every time Jesus had 00:11:14.640 --> 00:11:15.641 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% an emotional breakdown 00:11:15.708 --> 00:11:16.709 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% he had a breakthrough. 00:11:16.776 --> 00:11:18.010 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% Something miraculous happened! 00:11:18.077 --> 00:11:19.278 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% And we are holding in 00:11:19.345 --> 00:11:20.413 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% all of our pain, 00:11:20.479 --> 00:11:21.881 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% and I think we are aborting 00:11:21.947 --> 00:11:23.215 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% our breakthrough 00:11:23.282 --> 00:11:24.450 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% because we're not 00:11:24.517 --> 00:11:25.751 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% releasing the pain 00:11:25.818 --> 00:11:26.919 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% and allowing the spirit 00:11:26.986 --> 00:11:28.020 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% to flow behind us 00:11:28.087 --> 00:11:29.088 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% just like Jesus did. 00:11:29.155 --> 00:11:30.456 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% TAMMY: That is so good. 00:11:30.523 --> 00:11:31.657 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% I love how 00:11:31.724 --> 00:11:32.825 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% you talk about that. 00:11:32.892 --> 00:11:33.993 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% The breakthrough and coming 00:11:34.060 --> 00:11:35.194 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% to the other side of that. 00:11:35.261 --> 00:11:36.328 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% Oh my gosh, what would you say 00:11:36.395 --> 00:11:37.396 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% to the person 00:11:37.463 --> 00:11:38.464 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% that has been told 00:11:38.531 --> 00:11:39.532 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% you don't have enough faith 00:11:39.598 --> 00:11:40.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% because you're 00:11:40.666 --> 00:11:41.600 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% showing emotion. 00:11:41.667 --> 00:11:42.968 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% This pain hurts 00:11:43.035 --> 00:11:44.003 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% so you're crying 00:11:44.070 --> 00:11:45.104 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% so you're not believing enough 00:11:45.171 --> 00:11:46.272 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% that God can turn this around. 00:11:46.338 --> 00:11:47.873 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% You have no faith. 00:11:47.940 --> 00:11:48.941 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% What do we say 00:11:49.008 --> 00:11:50.076 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% to people like that? 00:11:50.142 --> 00:11:51.143 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48% ANITA: I would say, 00:11:51.210 --> 00:11:52.144 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33% am I required 00:11:52.211 --> 00:11:53.179 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% to have more faith than Jesus? 00:11:53.245 --> 00:11:54.213 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% Because Jesus was crying. 00:11:54.280 --> 00:11:55.247 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40% Why didn't Jesus 00:11:55.314 --> 00:11:56.282 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% just walk into Gethsemane 00:11:56.348 --> 00:11:57.316 align:start line:63% position:10% size:23% like hey! 00:11:57.383 --> 00:11:58.350 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53% It's crucifixion day. 00:11:58.417 --> 00:11:59.485 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% But I know I have the victory. 00:11:59.552 --> 00:12:01.053 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% He did not! 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:02.121 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% He did not. 00:12:02.188 --> 00:12:03.189 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% He expressed the pain 00:12:03.255 --> 00:12:04.256 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% of what it meant to be 00:12:04.323 --> 00:12:05.324 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% in that human body 00:12:05.391 --> 00:12:06.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% and we're allowed 00:12:06.525 --> 00:12:07.593 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% to do that too. 00:12:07.660 --> 00:12:08.627 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% But we have allowed 00:12:08.694 --> 00:12:10.229 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% cultures' view of emotion. 00:12:10.296 --> 00:12:11.897 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% Our Western culture, 00:12:11.964 --> 00:12:13.432 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% some of the Greek philosophies 00:12:13.499 --> 00:12:14.767 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% that have been formed the way 00:12:14.834 --> 00:12:16.268 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% we approach Christianity, 00:12:16.335 --> 00:12:17.603 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% approach the scripture 00:12:17.670 --> 00:12:18.904 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% where the thought was 00:12:18.971 --> 00:12:20.272 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% emotion is bad to show, 00:12:20.339 --> 00:12:21.607 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% the mind is more important. 00:12:21.674 --> 00:12:22.741 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% And we have absorbed that 00:12:22.808 --> 00:12:24.009 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% into our theology. 00:12:24.076 --> 00:12:25.711 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% But that doesn't reflect 00:12:25.778 --> 00:12:26.979 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% the Jesus I see in that book. 00:12:27.046 --> 00:12:28.481 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% So we have to be very careful 00:12:28.547 --> 00:12:29.782 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% not only in studying scripture 00:12:29.849 --> 00:12:31.050 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% in the context 00:12:31.117 --> 00:12:32.118 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% where it was written 00:12:32.184 --> 00:12:33.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% but paying attention 00:12:33.219 --> 00:12:34.153 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% to the context 00:12:34.220 --> 00:12:35.321 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% where it's being read. 00:12:35.387 --> 00:12:36.355 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% Why am I reading it 00:12:36.422 --> 00:12:37.590 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% and not having seen 00:12:37.656 --> 00:12:38.891 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% this emotional Jesus before? 00:12:38.958 --> 00:12:40.092 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% We have to shed 00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:41.227 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% our cultural lens and -- 00:12:41.293 --> 00:12:42.528 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% TAMMY: I never did! 00:12:42.595 --> 00:12:43.796 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% ANITA: We weren't taught 00:12:43.863 --> 00:12:44.897 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% to see it. 00:12:44.964 --> 00:12:45.965 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% We have certain 00:12:46.031 --> 00:12:47.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% cultural blinders on. 00:12:47.199 --> 00:12:48.167 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% TAMMY: And that alone 00:12:48.234 --> 00:12:49.168 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% set me free just reading that. 00:12:49.235 --> 00:12:50.369 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20% Like oh, 00:12:50.436 --> 00:12:51.370 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% Jesus was emotional? 00:12:51.437 --> 00:12:52.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% Then I'm okay 00:12:52.505 --> 00:12:53.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% to have some emotions. 00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:54.707 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% ANITA: And when we miss it, 00:12:54.773 --> 00:12:55.841 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% we don't care for the soil, 00:12:55.908 --> 00:12:57.042 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% and then the seeds fall 00:12:57.109 --> 00:12:58.944 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% and the power of the seeds 00:12:59.011 --> 00:13:00.579 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% is not unleashed 00:13:00.646 --> 00:13:01.847 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% because the soil 00:13:01.914 --> 00:13:02.948 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% isn't ready for them. 00:13:03.015 --> 00:13:04.116 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% And not because 00:13:04.183 --> 00:13:05.184 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% we have painful emotions 00:13:05.251 --> 00:13:06.352 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% but because 00:13:06.418 --> 00:13:07.419 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% we don't allow them 00:13:07.486 --> 00:13:08.521 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% to flow through and out. 00:13:08.587 --> 00:13:09.755 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25% It is okay 00:13:09.822 --> 00:13:11.123 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% to feel all of the feelings. 00:13:11.190 --> 00:13:12.358 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% Hebrews 4:15 says 00:13:12.424 --> 00:13:13.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% we have not a High Priest 00:13:13.526 --> 00:13:14.593 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% who cannot be touched 00:13:14.660 --> 00:13:15.728 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% by the feelings 00:13:15.794 --> 00:13:16.862 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% of our infirmities. 00:13:16.929 --> 00:13:18.063 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% And that he was tempted 00:13:18.130 --> 00:13:19.198 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%

feeling 00:13:21.534 --> 00:13:22.701 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% in itself can be a sin. 00:13:22.768 --> 00:13:23.769 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% Because if Jesus felt 00:13:23.836 --> 00:13:24.837 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% everything we felt 00:13:24.904 --> 00:13:26.472 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% and he never sinned -- 00:13:26.539 --> 00:13:27.673 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% TAMMY: What about anger? 00:13:27.740 --> 00:13:29.275 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% ANITA: Anger is not a sin. 00:13:29.341 --> 00:13:30.342 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% What does Ephesians say? 00:13:30.409 --> 00:13:31.810 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% "Be angry and sin not." 00:13:31.877 --> 00:13:32.912 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% It doesn't say 00:13:32.978 --> 00:13:34.046 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% don't be angry 00:13:34.113 --> 00:13:35.114 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% so you won't sin. 00:13:35.181 --> 00:13:36.215 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20% It says, 00:13:36.282 --> 00:13:37.449 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% "Be angry and sin not." 00:13:37.516 --> 00:13:38.651 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% Anger can push our behavior 00:13:38.717 --> 00:13:39.818 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% and so we need 00:13:39.885 --> 00:13:41.053 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% to pay attention to that. 00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:42.288 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% But a lot of times, 00:13:42.354 --> 00:13:43.455 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% we don't even want 00:13:43.522 --> 00:13:44.723 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% to touch that we're angry. 00:13:44.790 --> 00:13:45.891 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% But it's under there 00:13:45.958 --> 00:13:47.059 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% just boiling, just boiling. 00:13:47.126 --> 00:13:48.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% And then we say, 00:13:48.327 --> 00:13:49.295 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% "I lost my temper." 00:13:49.361 --> 00:13:50.329 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% No, you've been holding it in 00:13:50.396 --> 00:13:51.430 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20% so long. 00:13:51.497 --> 00:13:52.565 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% It is okay to be angry. 00:13:52.631 --> 00:13:53.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% There are things that 00:13:53.666 --> 00:13:54.733 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% we should righteously 00:13:54.800 --> 00:13:55.868 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% be angry about. 00:13:55.935 --> 00:13:57.102 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% But when we hold it in, 00:13:57.169 --> 00:13:58.270 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% you know what? 00:13:58.337 --> 00:13:59.271 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% It makes us sick, 00:13:59.338 --> 00:14:00.439 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% it undermines 00:14:00.506 --> 00:14:01.440 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% our immune system. 00:14:01.507 --> 00:14:02.575 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% We're more likely to get ill. 00:14:02.641 --> 00:14:03.842 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% So our bodies, our hearts, 00:14:03.909 --> 00:14:05.077 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% our spirits, our minds, 00:14:05.144 --> 00:14:06.212 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% everything's meant 00:14:06.278 --> 00:14:07.246 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% to work together. 00:14:07.313 --> 00:14:08.380 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% But this obsession 00:14:08.447 --> 00:14:09.415 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% with the mind, 00:14:09.481 --> 00:14:11.317 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% it's the original sin. 00:14:11.383 --> 00:14:12.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% Isn't that what 00:14:12.785 --> 00:14:13.786 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% the first woman 00:14:13.852 --> 00:14:15.254 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% and then the first man did? 00:14:15.321 --> 00:14:16.722 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% Oh, if I eat this fruit, 00:14:16.789 --> 00:14:18.224 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% I'll be wise like God. 00:14:18.290 --> 00:14:19.358 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% I'll be able to think 00:14:19.425 --> 00:14:20.426 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23% like God. 00:14:20.492 --> 00:14:21.694 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% It was a pursuit of the mind. 00:14:21.760 --> 00:14:22.828 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% If she had -- 00:14:22.895 --> 00:14:23.963 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% if that first woman 00:14:24.029 --> 00:14:24.997 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% had just kept his word 00:14:25.064 --> 00:14:26.198 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% hidden in her heart 00:14:26.265 --> 00:14:27.366 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% instead of thinking 00:14:27.433 --> 00:14:28.434 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% about what she could do 00:14:28.500 --> 00:14:29.535 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% with her mind. 00:14:29.602 --> 00:14:30.769 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% TAMMY: Oh my gosh! 00:14:30.836 --> 00:14:31.870 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% How do we understand 00:14:31.937 --> 00:14:33.572 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% mental wellness 00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:34.907 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% through the scripture? 00:14:34.974 --> 00:14:36.041 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% This is also what I love 00:14:36.108 --> 00:14:37.443 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% so much about your book. 00:14:37.509 --> 00:14:39.011 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% It is so -- 00:14:39.078 --> 00:14:40.246 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% it is so sound -- 00:14:40.312 --> 00:14:42.848 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% biblically sound, practical. 00:14:42.915 --> 00:14:44.216 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% There is so much science here. 00:14:44.283 --> 00:14:45.684 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% I'm like, she is sending me 00:14:45.751 --> 00:14:47.052 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% back to school. 00:14:47.119 --> 00:14:48.120 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% There is so much in it. 00:14:48.187 --> 00:14:49.288 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60% It's just wrapped around 00:14:49.355 --> 00:14:50.389 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% so many scriptures, 00:14:50.456 --> 00:14:51.523 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% the Word of God. 00:14:51.590 --> 00:14:52.658 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30% It is solid. 00:14:52.725 --> 00:14:53.759 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% There is a revelation, 00:14:53.826 --> 00:14:54.994 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% a bit of a revival 00:14:55.060 --> 00:14:56.762 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% in your life that can happen 00:14:56.829 --> 00:14:57.963 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% if you tap into the truth 00:14:58.030 --> 00:14:59.465 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% of what you are speaking of. 00:14:59.531 --> 00:15:00.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% This is stuff 00:15:00.666 --> 00:15:01.734 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% you've researched, 00:15:01.800 --> 00:15:02.835 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% you've studied. 00:15:02.901 --> 00:15:04.003 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38% This girl knows 00:15:04.069 --> 00:15:05.070 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% what she's talking about. 00:15:05.137 --> 00:15:06.205 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58% So how do we understand 00:15:06.272 --> 00:15:08.240 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50% even mental wellness 00:15:08.307 --> 00:15:09.341 align:start line:63% position:10% size:25% right now? 00:15:09.408 --> 00:15:10.542 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45% It is a big thing. 00:15:10.609 --> 00:15:12.011 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65% We've walked through a lot 00:15:12.077 --> 00:15:13.178 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% in the last few years. 00:15:13.245 --> 00:15:14.346 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% Many people are struggling 00:15:14.413 --> 00:15:16.115 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% with mental wellness, 00:15:16.181 --> 00:15:17.449 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% and mental illness, even. 00:15:17.516 --> 00:15:18.651 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% How do we navigate 00:15:18.717 --> 00:15:19.852 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% through that in scripture? 00:15:19.918 --> 00:15:20.919 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% ANITA: Absolutely, 00:15:20.986 --> 00:15:21.954 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% it is in there. 00:15:22.021 --> 00:15:23.088 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% Everything is in that book. 00:15:23.155 --> 00:15:24.156 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% I take you to Romans seven 00:15:24.223 --> 00:15:25.791 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73% and we look at Paul who wrote 00:15:25.858 --> 00:15:26.925 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% most of the mind scriptures 00:15:26.992 --> 00:15:28.060 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% we quote, talking about 00:15:28.127 --> 00:15:30.529 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% how he himself struggled. 00:15:30.596 --> 00:15:31.630 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45% In the second half 00:15:31.697 --> 00:15:32.731 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40% of that chapter, 00:15:32.798 --> 00:15:33.832 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45% he's talking about 00:15:33.899 --> 00:15:34.967 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% what I don't want to do, I do. 00:15:35.034 --> 00:15:36.068 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75% What I do want to do, I don't. 00:15:36.135 --> 00:15:37.102 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63% We all know those verses, 00:15:37.169 --> 00:15:38.137 align:start line:85% position:10% size:15% right? 00:15:38.203 --> 00:15:39.171 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% And we talk about that 00:15:39.238 --> 00:15:40.205 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% in terms of trying 00:15:40.272 --> 00:15:41.340 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% not to commit acts of sin. 00:15:41.407 --> 00:15:42.408 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28% But I think 00:15:42.474 --> 00:15:43.542 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% Paul was talking about 00:15:43.609 --> 00:15:44.643 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% an internal struggle. 00:15:44.710 --> 00:15:45.811 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% Because Paul himself 00:15:45.878 --> 00:15:46.979 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% in other passages says 00:15:47.046 --> 00:15:48.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% that by touching the law, 00:15:48.247 --> 00:15:49.715 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% he was blameless, and perfect. 00:15:49.782 --> 00:15:50.983 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% Like he was righteous 00:15:51.050 --> 00:15:51.984 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% according to the law. 00:15:52.051 --> 00:15:53.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% So it is hard 00:15:53.218 --> 00:15:54.253 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% for me to believe 00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:55.354 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% that he never broke 00:15:55.421 --> 00:15:56.455 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% the law of God 00:15:56.522 --> 00:15:57.556 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% before he met Jesus 00:15:57.623 --> 00:15:58.657 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% on the Damascus Road. 00:15:58.724 --> 00:15:59.758 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% But after that, 00:15:59.825 --> 00:16:00.859 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43% he was struggling 00:16:00.926 --> 00:16:01.960 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% to like what? 00:16:02.027 --> 00:16:03.062 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% Not go out and party? 00:16:03.128 --> 00:16:04.163 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% I thinking something else 00:16:04.229 --> 00:16:05.264 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% was happening. 00:16:05.331 --> 00:16:06.365 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% He says that there was 00:16:06.432 --> 00:16:07.466 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% the law of God in his mind 00:16:07.533 --> 00:16:08.567 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75% but that there was another law 00:16:08.634 --> 00:16:09.668 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63% in his body, his members, 00:16:09.735 --> 00:16:10.769 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38% warring against 00:16:10.836 --> 00:16:11.870 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50% the law of his mind. 00:16:11.937 --> 00:16:12.971 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% And he said, "Sometimes 00:16:13.038 --> 00:16:14.073 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% it takes my mind captive." 00:16:14.139 --> 00:16:15.240 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45% So yes, Paul wrote 00:16:15.307 --> 00:16:16.375 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40% all those verses 00:16:16.442 --> 00:16:17.376 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65% about the mind but he also 00:16:17.443 --> 00:16:18.410 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% vulnerably acknowledged 00:16:18.477 --> 00:16:19.478 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35% that sometimes 00:16:19.545 --> 00:16:20.579 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53% something in his body 00:16:20.646 --> 00:16:21.714 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48% was doing something 00:16:21.780 --> 00:16:23.882 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70% his mind wishes it wouldn't. 00:16:23.949 --> 00:16:24.983 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68% I believe he was struggling 00:16:25.050 --> 00:16:25.984 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58% with internal feelings. 00:16:26.051 --> 00:16:27.019 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55% I believe he struggled 00:16:27.086 --> 00:16:28.153 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33% with
