Podcast Episode 274: How to Move on from a Horrific Past

Feb 25, 2017 | In The Loop

In The Loop with Andy Andrews, hosted by David Loy

 

In this episode, we discuss a listener’s question about moving forward from a horrific childhood and mending broken relationships.

 

Sometimes when you feel like something is holding you back—it’s actually you.

  • This is good news, though, because you have control.

 

There’s always someone out there who had it worse.

  • Your past made you who you are today.
  • You can use your story to give valuable perspective to others.
  • God can take horrible situations and make great things out of them.
  • Look for things to be grateful for.

 

There’s a major difference between apologizing and asking forgiveness.

  • We apologize when we make a mistake—but we ask for forgiveness when we make a bad choice.
  • If someone doesn’t forgive you, you don’t have to continue spending time with them.

 

Tune in to hear the story of a horrendous set of events that lead to the birth of a great king.
