Work Club 005 - The Stories We Tell Ourselves
You don’t have to live by the lies you’ve believed—this episode is all about rewriting the story you tell yourself.We all carry stories—about our worth, our identity, and our place in the world. But what if the story playing in your head isn’t the one God’s telling?In this episode, we confront the lies that sneak into our self-talk: • Feeling like you’re not enough • Giving without getting anything back • Letting assumptions shape your relationships • Missing the small moments that could shift everythingAnd most importantly—we talk about how God’s grace rewrites the script.If you’ve ever struggled with shame, comparison, or feeling unseen, this one’s for you. Let’s replace false narratives with God’s truth and step into the freedom of who He’s really made us to be.=============================⏰ Timecodes ⏰=============================(0:00) - Intro(3:00) - People are thinking the worst of me(4:40) - I could do that if ______(5:30) - I’m not doing enough(5:58) - Reciprocation - I don’t get what I give(7:10) - Everyone Deals with Negative Narratives(7:30) - Invited but Unwanted(9:17) - Assumption(11:00) - Daniel's Memo Pad Moment(16:32) - How do you switch gears?(17:52) - Sam: Grace EMPOWERS You(22:50) - Let God into the narrative(26:50) - YOU have to choose(27:40) - Too good to be true(29:40) - What is God’s narrative for you?=============================Miss the first episode of the Work Club?
