How do you forgive yourself? How do you overcome your guilt-ridden beliefs and shame-filled insecurities? It is possible!<\/p>\n<p>Sandi Langston is passionate about God and people, which is evident in her work as a counsellor and her formal training in psychology and theology. Whether through her writing or in a casual conversation, she loves to help people find emotional healing and become firmly rooted in their identity in Christ.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>South African by birth, Sandi has lived in British Columbia, Canada since 2012. Her accent has faded but she still calls closets &#8220;cupboards&#8221; and writes with British spelling. She is a wife and mom to a busy five-year-old girl and three-year-old boy.<\/p>\n<p>They say if you really want to know a person, don&#8217;t ask them what they do; ask them what they love. So here is a little more about Sandi: She enjoys unhurried summer dinners on her deck with family. She thinks children&#8217;s humour is the best kind and has spent countless hours coming up with bad jokes and rhymes. Talking about travelling the world can keep her up way past her bedtime. And when it&#8217;s not too embarrassing, she drinks milkshakes and fancy coffees by the spoonful. In all she does, Sandi strives to be like Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to connect with Sandi on Facebook, Instagram, or by email. In the meantime, may you hear the whispers of the Holy Spirit as you browse her blog.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photo credit: Steven Mallinson<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Sandi As a Christian, you may know in theory that you are forgiven and loved, but how do you love yourself?
