The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. 2:00 I have come that they may have life and have it to the fullest.
What Healing Means 2:08 Jesus said this. 2:12 I love this scripture because it reminds me that God wants us all living life to its fullest. 2:21 God want us, all healed and whole. 2:27 He wants this free and filled. 2:30 he wants as living, life, a full abundant life. 2:37 And it's not about merely surviving. 2:42 It's about thriving in the purpose, health and peace that God provides. 2:54 Many believers settle for less than what God has called them to because they don't know the fullness of what's available to them. 3:07 And if this verse were a picture, I would describe it as bright, engaging, like the most beautiful summer day where the sun is shining. 3:22 The grass is green, the trees are blowing in the wind, and every color in sight is vibrant. 3:32 Everything is vivid. 3:35 And that day would be etched in your memory as the most perfect day of summer. 3:44 Everyone deserves to experience the beauty of this day. 3:50 All are welcome if they're willing to see what God sees. 3:58 If they are willing participate and own their part. 4:06 And finally, if they are willing to accept the opportunity to live the vivid life. 4:16 Now you're probably asking, what is the Vivid Life? 4:22 Well, it's not just the name of this podcast.
Scripture and the Vision of Wholeness 4:27 The word vivid means intensely bright, clear, and full of life. 4:35 It represents something that is deeply felt, powerfully real and richly experienced. 4:43 it describes something is strikingly distinct, dynamic, full, of energy. 4:53 The vivid life is essential. 4:56 because it aligns with the divine blueprint of wholeness, where our minds are renewed, our bodies are strengthened, and our spirits are in communion with God. 5:13 Yeah. 5:16 It's an invitation to live fully awake to God's truth, healed from the inside out. 5:25 and walking out his design. 5:28 It is where faith, wellness and the human experience intersect, leading to transformation in the mind, body and spirit. 5:40 So welcome to the Vivid Life Podcast, where Faith, Science and Psychology Collide. 5:49 where wellness and spirituality intertwine and where listeners are empowered to heal, grow and evolved, living the vivid life as God intended. 6:06 Oh, and I'm Dr. 6:07 Marceline Gurley, your host. 6:11 I'm a dual board certified family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 20 plus years in the healthcare field, 6:20 working in various areas and holding various certifications. 6:26 But I won't bore you with my resume. 6:29 And if you desire to know more about me, feel free to see the link in the show notes for more details. 6:36 But one thing I want you to for sure is I've witnessed healing firsthand and I have come to realize that I need healing even on my best days. 6:53 And I want healing from the inside to spill over on the outside. 6:59 And that is my hope for all of you who have decided to take the vivid life journey with me.
Who This Podcast Is For 7:08 I do want you to know that healing, from inside out is not just a hopeful idea. 7:16 It is a biblical promise. 7:22 Because in Romans 12-2, we're told, do not conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. 7:35 This tells us that true transformation, true healing begins internally with the renewal of our minds through Christ. 7:46 Additionally, Psalms 147.3 says, he heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. 7:56 This scripture reassures us that God is deeply invested in our healing. 8:05 The truth I've come to understand is that God designed us holistically, our spirit, soul, and body. 8:14 And when we align ourselves with his design, healing flows from the inside out. 8:23 You may be wondering if this podcast is for you or your neighbor. 8:30 So touch your neighbors. 8:32 and say, I think she's talking to you. 8:38 This podcast is for anyone who feels stuck in cycles of brokenness, whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual, it's for those who desire a deeper 8:51 connection with God and wants to understand how faith and science work together. 8:57 It is, for, those are ready to be challenged, stretched, and ready for transformation. 9:04 for those who are willing to surrender to God's way of healing, which is not always a common way that you've witnessed before. 9:16 It will benefit those are struggling with anxiety, depression, or mental battles who need to see the intersection of faith and psychology. 9:28 It will benefit people seeking healing in their bodies and wanting to understand functional wellness from a biblical perspective. 9:37 It'll also benefit anyone desiring a deeper intimacy with God and a better understanding of their divine purpose.
