22: Havilah Cunnington | Stronger than the Struggle

April 23, 2018

Havilah Cunnington joins us on the show today all the way from Bethel Church in Redding, CA… She’s an incredible speaker, author, & mom to 4 boys, she’s been in full time ministry for over 20 years, & she’s the founder of a non profit online community called Truth to Table.

 

Guys, Havilah brings the HEAT today! We chatted all about her journey to finding her calling, bringing her dream to life through Truth to Table, and the heart behind her latest book: Stronger than the Struggle. We were SO impacted by our conversation with Havilah. Not only did she share insane amounts of wisdom from her journey, she also encouraged the heck out of us to lean fully into God’s calling for our lives. You will be so pumped up and encouraged after listening to this conversation with Havilah!  Enjoy!

 

QUOTABLE QUOTES:

“ I did not think I would be doing what I’m doing today. I had no plan to do this.”

 

“ I just prayed, ‘God, I’m not much, I have no special gifts or graces, but if you can use anyone, you can use me.’ ”

“ You're not doing anything wrong if it feels like you’re going in circles. Sometimes life looks like the Jericho march. We don’t know when we’re gonna get the breakthrough, but we are going to get it!”

“It wasn’t the moment of breakthrough that trained the Israelites to be who they were, it was the journey. . . and a lot of times we miss that. We think, “When we have the best selling book, or when we have the platform ministry, or the marriage or the income, then I’ll feel validated, but validation doesn't come from that moment. Validation comes from knowing who we are in the journey, not what we are at the end of it.”

 

“ You have a choice….. You can serve faith or fear.”

 

“ If we don’t deal with fear quickly, it grows into every area of our lives.”

 

“ Jesus didn’t die on the cross so we could be bound in fear and anxiety.”

 

“ When we come to Christ and the Holy Spirit comes to live within us, everything that was wrong is now made right. Our spirit was meant to hold God, like a hand to a glove, we were meant to hold the Holy Spirit within us.”

 

“ We have to take responsibility to get the truth inside of us and let the Holy Spirit wi...
