The Trauma Trap | Part 3 | Panel Discussion ft. Apostle Stephanie Gardner @BlazingBelieverPodcast Apostle Stacey Jones @lifeabandon7936 , and Prophet Christie Littleton @christielittleton Changing your behavior doesn't mean you're healed — and in Part 3 of The Trauma Trap panel discussion, Apostle Stephanie Gardner, Apostle Stacey Jones, and Prophet Christie Littleton get real about what's actually happening in your body and mind when trauma takes hold. In this powerful conversation, they break down the science AND the spirit behind trauma — from how the nervous system (CNS & PNS) keeps you locked in survival mode, to how the amygdala functions as your brain's alarm system, triggering fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses. The good news? These responses are God-given. You are not broken. In this episode, you'll learn - The difference between behavioral change and true healing - How trauma lives in the nervous system — not just the mind - What fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses really look like in everyday life - How unhealed trauma becomes cognition, then strongholds, then belief systems - Why anger is a secondary emotion and a defense mechanism - The role of safety, self-regulation, and self-compassion in your healing journey - Why you cannot heal in the wrong circle You were either formed by dysfunction or by default — but healing is possible, and the devil is a liar. 🙌 If this message blessed you, like, share, and subscribe so you don't miss a part of this series! #TraumaTrap #HealingIsPossible #ApostleStephanieGardner #ApostleStaceyJones #ProphetChristiLittleton #MentalHealth #ChristianHealing #TraumaHealing #NervousSystem #FightFlightFreeze #Strongholds #SelfRegulation #Faith #Deliverance #WomensMinistry

🎙️ THE TRAUMA TRAP | Part 2 "He Restores My Soul" — The Science of Wounding & the Power of the Shepherd Apostle TG Gardner | THE WAY FELLOWSHIP CHURCH OF DALLAS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What does trauma actually do to you — to your brain, your body, and your soul? In Part 2 of The Trauma Trap, Apostle TG Gardner goes beyond the surface and into the science, the Scripture, and the supernatural. Drawing from Psalm 23:3 — "He restores my soul" — Apostle Gardner unpacks one of the most powerful images in all of Scripture: the cast sheep. A sheep that has rolled onto its back and cannot right itself will die, not from predators, but from the position itself. No amount of effort can save it. Only the shepherd can. That image is not poetry. For millions of trauma survivors, it is biography. In this message, Apostle Gardner addresses: 🧠 HOW TRAUMA REWIRES THE BRAIN • Why the amygdala — your brain's alarm system — becomes hyperactive after trauma, firing danger signals even when no threat is present • How chronic trauma shrinks the hippocampus, causing traumatic memories to feel present tense rather than past — this is why flashbacks feel so real • Why the prefrontal cortex goes offline during trauma responses, bypassing rational thought entirely • How the brain's stress system floods the body with cortisol long after the traumatic event has ended 💔 HOW TRAUMA DAMAGES PHYSICAL HEALTH • The documented links between unresolved trauma and heart disease, autoimmune disorders, chronic pain, and shortened lifespan • Why trauma survivors are significantly more likely to develop serious physical illness — and what the research says • How the body keeps the score long after the mind has tried to move on 🐑 THE CAST SHEEP — A PICTURE OF THE TRAUMATIZED SOUL • What a "cast" sheep is, and why it cannot right itself without the shepherd • How the Hebrew word yeshobeb — "He restores" — is an intensive, ongoing action: God keeps bringing the soul back • Why restoration is not something you produce — it is something the Shepherd does 📖 KEY SCRIPTURE: Psalm 23:3 | ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If you or someone you love has been carrying the weight of trauma in silence — this message is for you. You are not too far gone. You are not too broken.

THE TRAUMA TRAP | Part 1 Trauma is not weakness. It is not a lack of faith. It is a wound — and wounds left unattended become infected. In Part 1 of The Trauma Trap, Apostle TG Gardner opens the Word to reveal that trauma is woven through the lives of our biblical heroes — Job, Hannah, Tamar, David, and more. Through Scripture and science, this message uncovers how trauma rewires the brain, damages the body, and keeps believers stuck — and introduces the hidden power of inner vows that quietly govern our lives long after the wound has passed. Healing is possible. Wholeness is the will of God. The chain stops here. #sermonseries #trauma #biblestudy #sunday #healing #journey

SUBMITTED | Series Finale "Not my will, but Yours be done." — Luke 22:42 We've come to the end. And somehow, the end brings us right back to the beginning — back to a garden, a prayer, and a choice. In this finale of SUBMITTED, we sit with Jesus in Gethsemane as He models the most profound act of surrender the world has ever witnessed. He didn't submit because it was easy. He submitted because He trusted the Father completely. This week's message draws from three passages that together paint the full picture of what it means to live a submitted life: 📖 Luke 22:39–42 — The prayer in the garden 📖 Philippians 2:5–11 — The mind of Christ, who humbled Himself to the point of death 📖 Matthew 16:24 — The call to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Submission isn't weakness. It's the most courageous thing a person can do — to release control, to say *yes* to God even when it costs you everything, and to trust that His way is better than yours. As we close this series, the question isn't whether you've been following along. The question is: Will you submit? --- 🕊️ If this series has impacted your life, share it with someone who needs to hear it. 💬 Drop a comment below — what has God been speaking to you through SUBMITTED? 🔔 Subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss a message. *#Submitted #Surrender #Faith #SeriesFinale #Christian #Discipleship #Gethsemane #TakeUpYourCross #Philippians2 #Luke22 #Matthew16 #ChurchOnline #SermonSeries #SubmittedSeries*

Welcome to "SUBMITTED," a transformative sermon series with Apostle@iamtggardner that takes us on a powerful biblical journey beginning in James 4 and traveling all the way back to Genesis 3. In this series, we will unpack what it truly means to live a life fully yielded to God. --- ABOUT THIS SERIES The word **SUBMIT** is one of the most misunderstood yet most liberating words in all of Scripture. In James 4:7, the Apostle James declares: *"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* But to understand the weight of that command, we have to travel back to where submission was first broken — the Garden of Eden in Genesis 3. In the original Greek, the word "submit" (*hupotasso*) is a military term meaning "to arrange under, to place in proper order under authority." It is not weakness — it is divine alignment. To submit is to position yourself under the covering, the protection, and the authority of God so that His power can flow through your life. Genesis 3 shows us the catastrophic cost of rebellion. James 4 shows us the redemptive path back to relationship. This series bridges that gap. --- WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Throughout this series, Apostle TG Gardner will reveal: - The true biblical definition of SUBMIT and why the enemy fights so hard to distort it - How rebellion in the Garden opened doors that submission in Christ now closes - The connection between submission, authority, and spiritual victory - Why "resisting the devil" is impossible without first submitting to God - How to walk in the freedom, peace, and power that flow from a surrendered life - Practical steps to live a SUBMITTED life in your home, calling, finances, and purpose --- KEY SCRIPTURES - James 4:7 — "Submit yourselves therefore to God..." - Genesis 3 — The fall of humanity and the breaking of divine order - Romans 8:7-8 - The mind of the flesh doesn't like submission - Supporting passages throughout the series --- CONNECT WITH APOSTLE TG GARDNER @iamtggardner If this word has blessed you, please LIKE, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE so you never miss a message.

In this powerful message from The Spirit of Leviathan series, Apostle TG brings biblical insight into the nature of pride, rebellion, and spiritual opposition. Drawing from Matthew 23:11–12, Ezekiel 28, and Isaiah 14, this teaching reveals how the enemy operates through arrogance, self-exaltation, and division—while calling God’s people to walk in humility, discernment, and truth. Key Scriptures: • Matthew 23:11–12 • Ezekiel 28 • Isaiah 14 Be encouraged and challenged as this message uncovers the tactics of Leviathan and points believers back to the heart of true servanthood and surrender before God.

The Spirit of Leviathan — Apostle TG Gardner In this powerful message, Apostle TG Gardner exposes the spirit of Leviathan as a force rooted in pride, self-exaltation, and rebellion against God. Through Philippians 2:3–11, we see the complete opposite in Jesus Christ, who humbled Himself, became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross, and was therefore highly exalted by God. This teaching contrasts the humility of Christ with the pride of Satan. While Lucifer sought to exalt himself and was cast down because of his arrogance, Jesus willingly descended in humility and obedience, and God raised Him up above every name. This sermon is a call to reject pride, surrender fully to God, and embrace the humility that brings true exaltation in His kingdom. Philippians 2:3–11 reminds us: • Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory • In humility, esteem others better than yourself • Jesus made Himself of no reputation • He took on the form of a servant • He humbled Himself unto death • Therefore God highly exalted Him Watch, reflect, and allow this message to challenge your heart, your posture, and your walk with God. #SpiritOfLeviathan #ApostleTGGardner #Philippians2 #Humility #Pride #JesusChrist #ChristianTeaching #BibleMessage #KingdomTruth #Faith
