Your 'Not Enough' Feeling Has a Name - And Jesus Has the Answer

✨ Shame is one of the most powerful forces shaping Christian identity, yet most churches never teach what it really is. This video reveals how shame forms, why it distorts faith, and how Jesus heals it from the inside out. Try my free 60 Second Emotional Reset App: https://chatgpt.com/g/g-692f645e3c288...

Shame is one of the earliest emotional wounds many Christians experience, yet it’s rarely explained, named, or healed within the church. Instead, shame often gets wrapped in spiritual language - “conviction,” “holiness,” “being good enough” - even though its root is fear of disconnection, not the voice of God.

In this teaching, Lori unpacks:
✨ What shame actually is (psychology + Scripture)
✨ How shame begins in childhood interactions and nervous-system wiring
✨ Why shame gets spiritualized in church environments
✨ The difference between shame and conviction
✨ How shame affects your identity, relationships, and sense of belonging
✨ How Jesus meets shame with compassion, not condemnation

If you’ve ever felt “not enough,” “too much,” or afraid to be fully known, this message will help you understand why - and how Jesus gently restores what shame fractured.

You’re not the problem - shame is. And it can be healed.
