What Does Eternal Life Actually Feel Like?
I’ve struggled with doubt just like anyone else. There are days I’ve wondered if I really measure up or if God truly loves the messy version of me. In this episode, I share a sermon clip from Matt Chandler that changed my perspective on assurance. We are diving into 1 John 5:13 to see why we can know, for certain, that we have eternal life. It isn’t about being "good enough" but about what Christ has already finished on the cross. I hope this helps you find rest in His love today.

Questions for personal reflection:
How does the metaphor of a "heartbeat" or EKG change the way you look at the "ups and downs" of your personal faith?
Have you ever felt like you had to perform or work harder to earn God's love?
Why is it important to "preach the truth to yourself" using the Bible when you start to feel doubt or anxiety?
How does knowing that God has already seen your "worst moments" and still moved toward you change your perspective on today's struggles?
