Getting to the Root of It: A Healing Balm of Freedom Thursday, February 13, 2025 We had an incredible time this past Monday! I’ve heard from so many of you about how the exercise—though challenging—was exactly what you needed. Growth isn’t always comfortable, but it’s always necessary! Below, you’ll find the Zoom replay recording along with two handouts to support your journey. If you joined us as a guest of one of the participants and would like to get your own copy of the digital download, click the button below. We floated a possible overnight retreat ~ Let’s take this journey even deeper! I’m considering hosting an overnight retreat where we can meet in person, share our stories, and do the real work of getting to the root of it together. This retreat will include powerful workshops and guided soul-care prayer—because growth and healing require both reflection and action. If this sounds like something you’d love to be a part of, email me at gail@gaildudley.com to let me know you're interested. There will be a registration fee, but trust me—it will be worth the investment in yourself. Let’s make it happen! Devotion: Lean Into the Truth Let’s be real—satan is a liar. Not just any liar, but the father of lies. (John 8:44) He is a deceiver, and he uses sin to lead people astray. But here’s the good news: when you know God’s Word, you know the truth. Look at 2 Timothy 2:15: Let’s break that down:
Now, here’s the challenge: over the next few days, develop a study plan that works for you. Maybe that means waking up 30 minutes earlier. Maybe it’s using part of your lunch break to get into the Word. Join a Bible study group—but make sure they align with what God is doing in your life and that their teachings line up with your pastor’s leadership. Keep pressing. Keep pressing. Don’t give up now! Prayer: Lord, help me to lean into you and Your Word and not to my own understanding. Lord, help me to lean into the truth of Your Word. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Zoom: No Zoom this Sunday. We will have one last Zoom on February 23, 2025.

Getting to the Root of It: A Healing Balm of Freedom Sunday, February 9, 2025 How’s everyone doing? Listen, when you move in obedience to God, best believe the enemy will try everything to stop you. But I’m here as a witness— "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."
