the wholehearted disciple

What do you do when your experience doesn’t match what you know to be true about God? When prayers go unanswered, breakthrough doesn’t come, and disappointment lingers?
In this episode, we explore the reality of mystery in the Kingdom and how biblical lament becomes a powerful pathway for navigating pain without losing faith. Rather than ignoring disappointment or suppressing questions, lament invites us into honest, transformative dialogue with God.

In this episode, we look at:
The tension between God’s nature and our lived experience

What biblical lament is (and what it isn’t)

Why lament is actually an expression of deep faith

How unprocessed disappointment impacts our trust in God

A practical, biblical framework for lament:

How lament leads us from heartbreak back to hope

Lament isn’t a one-time prayer—it’s a rhythm we return to in every season of mystery and disappointment. As we learn to bring our whole hearts before God, we discover that lament doesn’t weaken our faith—it strengthens it. It becomes the very pathway that leads us back to trust, again and again.

Key Scripture:
Psalm 13, 69 and 77

How do we do the heart journey in practice?
In this episode, we move from vision to practice as we explore what the heart journey actually looks like in everyday life.
Building on the previous conversation, this episode is all about how we can intentionally pursue healing and freedom as we follow Jesus.
Through honest reflection and practical insight, you’ll be encouraged to engage with your heart in a deeper way and invite God into the process.
In this episode, we cover:
Why paying attention to your thoughts, words, and behaviours reveals what’s really going on in your heart

The importance of silence and solitude in creating space for God to speak

What it means to “walk in the light” through vulnerability and honesty with God and others

Why taking off the mask is essential for freedom and deeper intimacy

The role of trusted community in the healing process

As you listen, you’ll be reminded that the heart journey is lifelong—but it’s one that leads to deeper intimacy with God, greater self-awareness, and a growing capacity to love others well. Wherever you find yourself today, this episode will help you take your next step towards healing and freedom with Jesus.

Are you prioritising your heart journey?
In this episode, we begin to explore what this means — learning why it’s so important to look beneath the surface of our lives and invite Jesus to bring healing and freedom to our inner world.
Drawing from Proverbs 4:23 and Luke 6, we reflect on how everything we do flows from our hearts, and why prioritising hidden, internal work is essential if we want to follow Jesus wholeheartedly over the long haul.
This conversation is both an invitation and a reminder: God deeply cares about the condition of our hearts, and as we allow Him to meet us there, it leads to lasting transformation in every area of our lives.
In this episode, we cover:
*Why the condition of our heart shapes everything we do
*God’s desire to bring healing, freedom, and wholeness to our inner world
*How to recognise what’s really going on in our hearts
*Jesus’ teaching on the tree and its fruit, and what it reveals about us
*The importance of building deep, hidden foundations that can withstand storms
*Why the heart journey can be difficult — but is always worth it
As you go into your week, take a moment to notice what’s happening beneath the surface. Pay attention to what’s coming out of your heart, and let it become an invitation to bring it honestly before God. He’s not in a rush, and He meets us right where we are.

Have you encountered Jesus as the resurrection and the life?
This bonus episode is a preach Wendy did at Portico Church, Coleraine. In it she looks at the start of Jesus’ journey to the cross. The catalyst that set everything else in motion - when He raised Lazarus from the dead in John 11. Wendy homes in on the life-transforming revelation that Martha received from Jesus. That He is the resurrection and the life. This isn’t just theology; it’s an invitation to experience His life-transforming power today.
In this episode, we explore:
Jesus’ personal revelation to Martha and what it means for us

Experiencing spiritual resurrection—what happens when we say yes to Jesus

Living with eternity in mind and the hope of future resurrection

Why Jesus’ resurrection power isn’t just past or future—but available now

How God brings life into places that feel beyond hope or restoration

The tension between life and opposition—and why hope always wins

As you listen, be reminded that no situation is too far gone, no heart too broken, and no story beyond redemption. Jesus is still revealing Himself today as the resurrection and the life—bringing hope, renewal, and victory wherever He is welcomed. Lean in, ask Him to reveal more of who He is, and open your heart to the life He longs to pour out.

John 11: 20-27
