Rebecca Hitchcock on Shame, Healing, and Identity in Christ, Part Two

In this follow-up episode, author and Bible teacher Rebecca Hitchcock returns to share practical tools for walking unashamed. Building on Part 1, which covered her story and the concept of "shame clouds" and God’s promise of a “double portion” from Isaiah 61:7, this episode equips listeners with real strategies to begin experiencing freedom.

Rebecca walks listeners through how to:

• Recognize signs of shame, including difficulty receiving love or help, compulsive “worthiness hustling,” and being overly sensitive to rejection or criticism.
• Speak biblical truth over themselves using identity-focused Scriptures such as 2 Corinthians 5:17 (You are a new creation in Christ) and other affirmations of God's approval, love, and acceptance.
• Engage in ongoing mind renewal—replacing lies with God's truth again and again, not as a one-time fix, but as a daily spiritual rhythm.
• Acknowledge shame in safe, vulnerable community where shame loses its power in the presence of connection and grace.
• Use tools like a shame assessment to begin naming what’s really going on internally and bringing those burdens to God in exchange for the double portion He promises.

Rebecca also touches on the science of how renewing your thoughts impacts your physical body (epigenetics) and how even seasoned believers need to continuously root their identity in Christ rather than their performance. This episode is full of Scripture, compassion, and encouragement to walk in the truth of who God says you are—not what shame tries to tell you.
