“I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.” (Psalm 77:11) In this episode, Haley and Dustin explore the vital (and often overlooked) spiritual practice of remembering our past and spiritual heritage.  From God’s mighty works to the faith of those who came before us, biblical remembrance is more than nostalgia—it’s a discipline that fuels present-day faith and worship, anchors our identity, and inspires hope for the future. But there’s also a danger in remembering the wrong way. The conversation dives into how unhealthy remembering can lead to regret, fear, or spiritual stagnation, and how to avoid it. With Scripture, stories, and practical insights, this episode unpacks what it means to honor our spiritual heritage while moving forward with hope. You’ll walk away with clarity, conviction, and simple ways to remember the rich spiritual heritage that is yours in Christ.
