027. Is Your Faith Only Visible on Sunday? Why You Can’t Be Whole with a Compartmentalized Faith (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You love Jesus and know Him as Lord and Savior, but is your faith visible on Sunday while remaining almost undetectable Monday through Saturday? In this episode of Worthy & Whole , Christian nurse coach LeighAnn Ricci explores the hidden ways believers compartmentalize their faith and why spiritual wholeness requires bringing every area of life under the loving authority of Christ. Using the picture of a dresser filled with separate drawers, LeighAnn examines what happens when Jesus is given the
026. Want More? Use More: Living From Your Spiritual Inheritance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if you already possess more than you realize but you’ve been living as though you don’t have access to it? Ephesians 1 tells us that in Christ we have been blessed with every spiritual blessing.

Read excerpt
What does it really mean to be a sacrificial mother? Many of us learned that being a good mother means continually giving more, more time, more energy, more protection, more of ourselves all while carrying the quiet fear that if our children struggle, somehow we haven't done enough. But Scripture gives us another picture. In this episode of Worthy & Whole , LeighAnn looks at the stories of Jochebed, Hannah, and Mary and explores a different kind of maternal sacrifice: loving our children deeply
