This month, we’re having honest conversations about depression, breaking the silence, offering hope, and reminding you that you are not alone. 🤍

“Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God…” Psalm 42:11

Song Featured- Crowder “Come as you Are”

This episode is for everyone. If you or anyone you know have ever experienced hardship, heartbreak, disappointment, trauma, loss, or silent battles no one knew about - this conversation is for you.

It’s a deeper, more detailed episode, so you can press play while getting ready in the morning, driving, or multitasking… or take a quiet moment to sit, breathe, and really receive it.

This episode is filled with truth, healing messages, and honest reflections that remind us we’re not alone in our brokenness. My prayer is that something said here meets you exactly where you are and brings comfort, clarity, and hope.

I truly hope you enjoy it 🤍

Isaiah 42:16

is a biblical verse where God promises to guide the spiritually or physically blind through unfamiliar paths, turning their darkness into light and making rough terrain smooth, assuring them He will not forsake them. It's a message of divine guidance, hope, and provision for those lost or struggling, promising a transformative journey of faith. 

Psalms 23

Hey family, this is a quick message from the Broken People Podcast Family. As Jamaica is currently under a hurricane watch, I just want to remind everyone to stay safe, stay prayed up, and stay connected with your loved ones.

Remember God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).

Take care of yourselves, protect your peace, and trust that even in the storm, God is still in control.

Stay safe, Broken People family 💛🇯🇲”

Matthew 11:28-30

28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us

In this special episode of The Broken People Podcast, we open up a much-needed conversation on men’s mental health—exploring the silent battles many men face, the weight of unspoken expectations, and how faith can be a powerful anchor through it all. Whether you’re struggling in silence or supporting someone who is, this episode is a reminder that healing is possible, and you’re not alone.

Trust God in the midst of your trial's

He isn’t finished with your story. 🖤

Mark 9:14-29 (nkjv)

Jesus cast out a demon and thought his disciples an important message.

When your strength runs out rely on Gods strength to bring you through. 

God’s Love is Equal and Fair

Numbers 26 & 27

The five daughters of Zelophechad, Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah, famously challenged the established inheritance laws of the Israelites, demanding the right to inherit their father's land, which was traditionally reserved for male heirs, and their request was upheld by God.

• This story is significant because it demonstrates God's justice and fairness, recognizing the rights of women and challenging traditional patriarchal norms.

Matthew 26 (Bible)

The story of Judas Iscariot is filled with lessons on what not to do in life. lol 

On a serious note however, we are to believe fully in the Son of God(Jesus) follow him faithfully to the end, always turning back to him for forgiveness, no matter what happens.

The story of Judas reminds us that nothing good can come from giving up on Jesus Christ. He is of supreme value, and following him is worth any cost.

John 18 -Peter and Jesus’s Friendship

God is very intentional when it comes to friendships

He will bring specific people into your life to encourage you, love you, lift you up, support & help you. Often when you least expected it.

"A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity."

Proverbs 17:17

"Love without fear"

You might be wondering what love is after many failed attempts of trying to find it. God is the very definition of love, but just incase you need more details in identifying love 1 Corinthians 13:4–8 explains the details of what love entails:

 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [a]puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [b]thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

The Story of Joseph can be found in the Bible in Genesis Chapter 37-50.

All the best for the YEAR 2022!

Make God the author of your story. Why?

Because he's the best in the business.

Romans 8:28

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”

God was with Joseph as he is still with us today.

God is with you through the good and bad times, however, its through the bad times that we must remember his promises "The LORD himself goes before you, he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid , do not be discouraged" Deuteronomy 31:8

Being on God's side doesn't mean you won't have sad days, or go through hard times but their is peace in knowing that whatever you are going through is working out for good.

I hope you enjoy this episode and the song selection! Thank You for your support and I appreciate every time you listen. -Love Shan

Just as in Joseph story we all go through low points when we are consumed by hurt, pain and unforgiveness. What can we possibly do in moments like these but wait on God to finish our story? Joseph brothers hated him, they sold him, he became a slave, got promoted, ended up in jail due to a false accusation.

Through it all Joseph remained faithful to God.

My tone of voice would not change in recording this episode and I attempted it twice, I was going through a low point while I was recording as well, however, I hope you can pull as much lessons as possible from this point in the story. Going through it is no excuse to do sloppy work and not do your best regardless of the task or position you are in.

Matthew 18:23-35, Genesis 39

Proverb 17:9 "Love prospers when a fault is forgiven"

Forgiveness is never an easy act to perform, but unforgiveness hides the keys to your blessings.

Try praying about it and begin your forgiveness journey.....

We've all seen the memes and posts talking about "MY HATERS".

Having hate and envy directed towards you is not easy to handle mentally, it may bring sadness and frustration especially when you are just working towards achieving the goals your ambition propels. However, even with the presence of envy/'badmind' in your life God is still painting your success and he can turn your brokenness into greatness.

Have you ever been in a situation where you just can't seem to hear what someone is saying? Maybe it's as a result of a noisy environment or the distance to which you are standing. Life sometimes makes it hard to hear the sound of Peace (God), and you get frustrated and flustered because you feel as if he's not there to help you through your hard times, but the simple solution is to move closer until you're able to hear his message to you clearly".
