New Year, New Mindset: A Fresh Start with Purpose

Loading player...
In this inspiring New Year episode, host Lynette Badenhorst welcomes listeners into 2026 with a powerful message about embracing fresh beginnings through faith. Broadcasting from JustGospel's studios, Lynette explores what it truly means to step into a new season with intentionality and divine purpose.
The conversation centers on breaking free from the weight of past disappointments and failures that often prevent people from fully embracing new opportunities. Lynette emphasizes that the New Year isn't just about superficial resolutions, but about a fundamental shift in perspective—seeing ourselves and our circumstances through God's eyes rather than through the lens of yesterday's struggles.
Drawing from Scripture, Lynette highlights the transformative power of renewing our minds and allowing God to reshape our thinking patterns. She addresses the common tendency to carry old mindsets into new seasons, explaining how this self-sabotage prevents the breakthrough many believers desperately seek. The discussion challenges listeners to examine what mental and spiritual baggage they're bringing into 2025.
Particularly compelling is Lynette's exploration of identity in Christ—understanding that who we are isn't defined by past mistakes or current circumstances, but by our position as children of God. She encourages listeners to partner with the Holy Spirit in this renewal process, acknowledging that transformation isn't achieved through willpower alone but through daily surrender and dependence on God's grace.
The episode concludes with practical steps for cultivating this new mindset, including specific prayer practices, Scripture meditation, and accountability. Lynette's authentic, conversational style makes profound spiritual truths accessible while maintaining theological depth.
