E13: The Lens of God

Beyond Believing: Stories of Faith and Facts with Katie Anne

Welcome to Beyond Believing: Stories of Faith and Facts with Katie Anne!

In this episode, Katie provides her listeners with some profound insight into what it means to have the lens of God. So often we go through life expecting that people will see things from our point of view. Especially when we have disagreements or differences of opinions with another person, it's frustrating because our "worldly lens" leads us to insist that we are right, but the other person is wrong. Yet the other person believes firmly that THEY are right, and we are wrong. The truth is, both are right and both are wrong. Because we go through life with our own experiences, personalities, and beliefs which shape our perception and distort our views. Instead, if we can see other people through the lens of God, that they, too, were made in His image and that these frustrating or upsetting interactions are only temporary afflictions, we can learn to have peace and contentment. Katie uses the wise words of Paul, reading from 2 Corinthians 4:16-18.

Katie Anne is a Woman of God, a Certified Life Coach, a single mother of five amazing humans, and a woman whose journey through divorce deepened her faith and reshaped her future in ways she never expected. Growing up in the LDS (Mormon) religion, she always believed she had the "truth" of the gospel. All of that was radically challenged after she was encouraged to read the Bible and defend the truths she was taught to believe in. After embracing the teachings of Jesus from the Bible, her faith journey has profoundly changed her life and the facts she has come to recognize. This podcast is aimed at supporting divorced Christian women over 40 to navigate their paths with faith in God, grace, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.

Coming to learn and understand the Bible as it was meant to be taught, Katie discovered how deeply intertwined its teachings were with the tools she had learned as a LifeCoach, and she is here to teach you how to understand that the power of the Bible's teachings are more relevant and applicable to your life today than ever. With Katie, you'll learn how to understand the concepts of the Bible and how to apply them into your life with the knowledge and training I've received as a Life Coach.
In each episode, we'll explore the powerful intersection of Christianity and thought work, uncovering how our beliefs and the stories we tell ourselves shape our lives. You'll learn practical strategies for becoming more aware of your thoughts, how they connect to Biblical teachings of Christ, and ways to align them with the life you know God has in store for you.
