🔴 Discerning What Love Looks Like | Ways a Man can lead his Home | Healing Through Adoption Trauma

What does love actually look like in the everyday moments of life? In this live broadcast, I open with a rich Bible study in Philippians, unpacking the importance of discerning what love calls for in real life, to help us learn to grow in deeper knowledge and wisdom on how to apply love. From there, I share a word to husbands and fathers about what it truly means to lead a home — not with authority or all the answers, but with strength, presence, and a servant's heart. I want to challenge and encourage you to walk into your home as a giver, knowing that God will fill what you pour out. I go deep on a heartfelt question from a woman who experienced adoption trauma, complex wounds from abuse and narcissistic dynamics in her upbringing, and now struggles to connect with the biblical truth of being adopted into God's family. I bring guidance on how to work through feelings rather than push them aside — and how to invite God to show His Father's heart in unexpected, everyday ways. I also tackle a powerful scrupulosity question from someone battling intrusive doubt about whether they're truly saved, helping you understand how performance-driven thinking keeps us from the grace-filled healing journey God actually intends. Melissa and I also have a fun moment where we play a bloopers video from a video we did around ten years ago. Whether you're a husband wanting to step up, someone carrying deep wounds from your past, or a Christian battling scrupulosity and religious anxiety, I pray this broadcast is a blessing to you. ❓Submit a Question: https://markdejesus.com/questions/ 📘Get The OCD Healing Journey Book Today: https://markdejesus.com/the-ocd-healing-journey-book/ ➡️Get a FREE eBook on the Father’s Love: https://bit.ly/3fGu6t3 ▶️Mark's resource library: https://markdejesus.com/topics/ 👉Support future videos: https://markdejesus.com/donate/ 🌎Join the Healing and Freedom Community: https://markdejesus.com/community 📚Mark's books: https://markdejesus.com/books-by-mark-dejesus/ Music Provided by Epidemic Sound: https://share.epidemicsound.com/73m02k and Audiio: https://ref.audiio.com/3c99d6zk Mark's Podcast and Video Equipment: https://markdejesus.com/equipment/ Disclaimer: The content published is for informational purposes.
