Moving Beyond Brokenness with Anh Lin

Welcome to the Love Where You Are podcast!

This week I am joined by Instagram sensation and DIY expert, Anh Lin.

Anh's career in both ministry and interior design began with her desire to turn her own home into a sanctuary. Anh is the author of “Forever Home: Moving Beyond Brokenness to Build a Strong and Beautiful Life". She incorporates interior design and a lifestyle blog with her testimony and the gospel to bring hope and the love of home to women.

In this episode, we unpack the difficult conversation of trauma. Unfortunately for many, the home is less like a cozy environment and more like the place where trauma began. In this conversation, we discuss the realities of pain, but how God can transform us, and how we can help those in our life who are walking in pain, and how can parent better because our kids are undoubtedly going to face their own battles.

Thank you for being here today.

Now, let's dive into the conversation!

You can connect with Anh through Instagram, her website, or the Hooga Shop!

You can also order her new book on Amazon.

FAVORITE TAKE-AWAYS:

-Pain is pain. We each have our own experiences and one's story is not better or worse than the other. Each one is the unique path God has us on. We each have our own testimony.

-Adam and Eve did something wrong and hid in shame. God knew exactly where they were, yet He called out to Him. He invited them out of hiding. He is a gentle parent.

-Parents genuinely love their children and desire to help, but there might be a barrier like lack of trust or communication. Those are the key pieces to a strong relationship.

REMEMBER:

-We can relate to those who experienced trauma by being compassionate, patient and being a good listener. We aren't called to be their therapist, we don't need to have all the answers. We are called to show the love of Christ.

-God is restoring us. He wants us to thrive not just survive!

-If you have experienced trauma and are seeking self transformation, remember to take it slow and let God walk with you one step at a time.
