True healing is about more than just physical well-being—it goes deeper, encompassing our emotional and spiritual health. This is what our “From Hindrances to Healing” series on the Cornerstone Integrative Healing Podcast has been all about. Here are a few key insights we’ve discussed on finding freedom through spiritual identity.
Discovering Your True Identity in Christ
Many of us operate from “false identities,” believing lies shaped by guilt, shame, or fear. But embracing our true identity means remembering who we are in Christ: beloved, chosen, and redeemed. Daily reminders of this spiritual truth, such as recalling your baptismal covenant or reading Galatians 3:27, can ground us in our purpose and identity.
Practicing Intentional Anchors
We often get swept up in our day-to-day routines, losing sight of our purpose. Practicing small anchors—moments to pause, breathe, and refocus—helps us reconnect with God throughout the day. John Mark Comer’s book Practicing the Way suggests centering our lives around being with Jesus, becoming like Him, and doing as He did, which brings intention and alignment to our daily choices.

Overcoming Distractions with Sabbath and Slow Living
Modern life is filled with distractions, which can hinder our spiritual growth and healing. Regular Sabbath practices and intentional “slowing down” create space for deeper connection with God. True healing isn’t about doing more but rather about simplifying our lives, releasing control, and focusing on what really matters.
Seeking Inner Healing and Support
Sometimes, deep inner healing requires additional guidance. Ministries like Peter’s Shadow offer support for those seeking to understand and live out their spiritual identity more fully. Trained in inner healing and deliverance, they provide invaluable resources for those facing deep emotional or spiritual challenges.
Healing isn’t about achieving perfection but about growing closer to God, embracing our true selves, and living in freedom. With each small step, we can experience transformation, letting go of the lies that hinder us and finding peace in our spiritual identity.
