FLOURISH-MEANT
PODCAST
HOST: TINA YEAGER
How can we overcome family brokenness and dysfunction? Today’s esteemed guest, Lisa Burkhardt Worley, shares insights and tips to guide you toward healing and freedom.
Lisa Burkhardt Worley is the founder of Pearls of Promise Ministries, a ministry designed to help people overcome brokenness and oppression through biblical truths. She is a documentary film producer, television host, conference speaker and ten-time award-winning author of ten books and a Bible study including her most recent award-winning book, The Root that Never Died: A Christian Woman’s Journey Back to Her Hebraic Heritage.
Lisa spent almost twenty years as an award-winning on-air television sportscaster both nationally and locally and is now the Executive Producer and Co-host of the topical television and radio show POP Talk, an interview program seen on thirteen television platforms and heard on numerous radio platforms.
Lisa earned a Masters of Theological Studies degree from SMU Perkins School of Theology in 2008, and after a return to her Jewish roots in 2014, is currently working on her Doctor of Ministry degree in Messianic Jewish Studies at King’s University. Her goal is to help the Jewish people by educating the world about antisemitism.
Lisa shares her story of being born 2 months after her father’s death to a mother who never recovered from the loss. Worley felt lonely, abandoned, and unloved as a child. But in high school, a God-sent friend shared Christ with Lisa.
She still needed to overcome insecurity. College activities helped build her confidence, but the issues continued to resurface at times. Lisa later rededicated her life to Christ and discovered how she could turn to God’s Word for the healing and strength to overcome insecurity and the wounds of her past.
She recommends finding a verse to apply to your area of struggle and putting it in the mirror.
Worley states there are two steps in our faith journey:
- Belief
- Lordship
After her career crash in adulthood, when she rededicated her life to Christ, Lisa applied the step of lordship and became a praying woman.
Worley notes that healing takes time. God helps us lift layer upon layer of woundedness. She emphasizes forgiveness as a vital part of healing. Lisa shares how forgiveness of her mother fulfilled great healing, though she had to extend unconditional love.
Lisa gives the following tips for overcoming family brokenness and dysfunction:
- Talk about it. Don’t bottle it up.
- Share your testimony, but make sure you honor others when sharing your story. God works a blessing in others when you share your story of healing.
- Prayer is very important. Spend time with God to flourish. Consider Psalm 92:12-13.
- Take your needs and wounds to the Lord.
We discuss how unresolved issues like abandonment and family dysfunction can affect relationships. Lisa strongly recommends studying scripture, believing God’s Word, prayer, and Biblical teaching.
Lisa advises listeners not to give up. She offers the metaphor of a pearl, which is created from years of distress. Likewise, God forms pearls in us.
