S1 E4 Heart Chakra & The Shield of Faith, Chronicles of A Broken Church Girl

Forgiveness is hard. Loving again after betrayal is harder. But staying wounded is not God’s will for your life.

In this powerful episode of Chronicles of a Broken Churchgirl, we dive into the Heart Chakra—the center of love, compassion, grief, and forgiveness—and align it with the Shield of Faith from Ephesians 6. Because when your heart has been hit repeatedly by disappointment, church hurt, or emotional betrayal, faith becomes your protection, not your denial.

This episode is for the believer who wants to love again but doesn’t want to be wounded again.

In this episode, we discuss:

How unforgiveness blocks emotional, spiritual, and even physical flow

Why faith is not pretending it didn’t hurt—but choosing healing anyway

How the Shield of Faith protects your heart from bitterness, resentment, and emotional burnout

Biblical truth on love, healing, and compassion

A guided heart-release exercise to help you let go without losing wisdom

Tea Time reflection to soften the heart and calm the spirit

Scriptures Referenced:
Ephesians 6:16
1 Peter 4:8
Proverbs 4:23
Psalm 147:3

Heart Chakra + Shield of Faith Alignment:
The Heart Chakra governs love, trust, and emotional connection. When it’s wounded, we either shut down or stay stuck in pain. The Shield of Faith allows you to protect your heart without hardening it. Faith doesn’t erase the hurt—it guards your healing while God restores what was broken.

Tea Time:
A calming, heart-supporting herbal blend to help release emotional tension and invite peace.
Disclaimer: Herbal teas are for general wellness only. Always consult your physician before use.

Journal & Healing Practice:
A guided reflection to release old pain, forgive without self-betrayal, and reopen your heart safely.
