Welcome to the Mary's Day podcast. I'm Jimmy Evans and I'm excited to have you

join us for today's episode and this conversation will explore the theme of

healing from scars and the impact of emotional pain on

personal and spiritual growth. We'll delve into the sources and spiritual elements of

scars, the importance of healing and redemption, and how healed scars can minister to others.

We'll also discuss the steps to emotional healing, making Jesus the Lord of our

pain and the role of God's word in healing. Plus, we'll cover forgiveness, seeking help,

surrendering scars to ministry,

and overcoming fear to improve emotional health

in marriages.
