135. Life Feels Unstable? 3 Practical Ways to Abide in Jesus Through Change

·27 min·1 clip

Renee gives three practical ways to abide in Jesus: worship, renewing your mind, and community.

1. Life Coaching for Christians | Faith-Based Personal Growth, Goal Setting, Personal Development, Biblical Mindset centers on transition seasons and abiding in Jesus through change. 2. Renee Boo speaks as the host, and she names her role as a “certified brain-based life coach” who studies behavior change and uses neuroscience with God’s word. 3. The episode asks how to feel “confident, secure, and full of peace” while moving through stress, overwhelm, excitement, and anxiety. 4. Renee starts from her own move, saying she is “sitting in a closet full of boxes” while her family is yelling in the background. 5. She uses a water-park story with her eight-year-old daughter and four slides to picture four kinds of transition. 6. One slide is a fast drop where you “pray and go,” another is a dark cave with “no light until the bottom.” 7. A third slide looks fun but gives you a bump and then you are “airborne,” which Renee compares to choosing a new job, a move, or motherhood. 8. The long slide takes “10 minutes for each kid to come down,” then ends with a wall hit, which Renee links to slow, painful transitions like her son starting high school. 9. Renee says the real feeling in these seasons is usually “stressed, chaotic, anxious,” not naturally peaceful. 10. She admits that instead of turning to Jesus, she often turns to cookies, naps, or a “stress list.” 11. Renee says cookies give “that dopamine hit for like 20 minutes,” which she uses to show why short-term relief does not last. 12. Her daughter’s slide story shifts when a lifeguard bends down, talks to her, and tells her she is safe and can do it. 13. Renee says the girl’s body changes from purple-lipped fear to relaxation and even smiling after the lifeguard’s reassurance. 14. That scene becomes Renee’s picture of God as the One who has “been there” and knows every slide path before we enter it. 15. The first practical step Renee gives is worship, which can be as simple as saying, “God, you’re good,” while naming the stress out loud. 16. She says worship moves attention off the “death slide” and onto the One who made and loves the listener. 17. The second step is renewing the mind through Romans 12:2, which she connects to how thoughts shape feelings and actions. 18. Renee uses the phrase “battle verse” and shares her own line: “The Lord does not give me a spirit of fear, but of love, power, and a sound mind.” 19. The third step is community, because telling another person a transition brings it into the light and lets Hebrews 10 happen through prayer and encouragement. 20. The tone is raw, practical, and sermon-like, and listeners who want Christian tools for moving, parenting shifts, or anxiety will fit best, while people avoiding Bible-centered coaching may skip it.
