Do you ever feel like your past failures disqualify you from God’s purpose? In this episode of the Day One of Sobriety Podcast, Brenda unpacks how God can redeem even our biggest mistakes. Through Scripture, neuroscience, and practical tools, you’ll learn how to reframe failure, silence shame, and let God use your past as fuel for your future. You’ll also discover the turning point of salvation — when Jesus dropped every charge against you — and how to move forward confidently as a new creation in Christ.   🔑 Key Episode Insights Why failure is not a flaw but feedback that helps us grow stronger in both faith and mind. How the enemy uses shame and fear to keep us trapped in the past — and how salvation breaks that cycle once and for all. The biblical truth behind double jeopardy and what it means to know that Jesus already paid for every mistake. The neuroscience of failure — why mistakes trigger learning and resilience in the brain. Two powerful tools — The 4 R’s of Redemption and S.T.R.E.T.C.H. Forward — designed to help you turn mistakes into motivation and renew your mindset with truth.   🧠 Why This Matters Failure isn’t the final word — redemption is. When you understand what salvation accomplished and how the mind learns through mistakes, you’ll stop striving for perfection and start embracing progress. God never wastes your pain; He uses it to propel you toward purpose.   🛠 Practice the 4 R’s + S.T.R.E.T.C.H. Forward Tool Want to dive deeper?
