Episode #33: Trading Brokenness for Purpose: Helping Other Women Heal Joel 2:25–26
Jesus loves to restore what is broken, not just with external fixes, but through deep, internal heart change.

Episode #31: Rooted and Growing: Why Women Need Spiritual Mentors. Psalm 78:2-4
Women need a time and place where they can learn about biblical womanhood and lovingly challenge one another when their behaviors reflect worldly attitudes.

However, spiritual mentoring gives women a unique opportunity to

Episode 29: Fan the Flames, Living with Holy Passion!
Every believer needs a strong foundation for serving Christ because Christian service does not become easier as we grow older, nor will it become easier as we draw nearer to the last days. Without a firm spiritual foundation, it becomes easy to give up during difficult times.
In this episode, we are reminded that we do not need new gifts or new revelations. Instead, we need courage and self-discip
Episode #28: Making Your Path Straight, Learning to Trust God.
Should we trust in ourselves or in others who are sinful, unpredictable, unreliable, have limited wisdom, and who frequently make bad choices and decisions swayed by emotion? Or do we trust in the all-wise, all-knowing, all-powerful, gracious, merciful, loving God who has good intentions for us? The choice should be obvious, but we fail to trust God because we don’t know Him.
This episode will
Episode #27: Singleness as a Season or A Calling.
The question of a Christian staying single and what the Bible says about believers never marrying is often misunderstood
In the Bible Paul, for example, did not have to worry about the extra problems and stresses that come with marriage and/or family. He devoted his entire life to spreading the Word of God.
In this Episode we will learn how Following God’s plan, as a single, will result in the pro

Episode #25 Motherhood: A Calling That Shapes Generations
Are you finding it difficult to train your children according to God’s Word? Scripture makes it clear that parents are called to intentionally teach and model God’s truth in the home. The church and Christian schools are valuable, but they were never meant to replace a parent’s responsibility.

Episode #23: Embracing Marriage As God Designed and Purpose
God gave marriage as a gift.
Marriage was not just for convenience, nor was it brought about by any culture. It was instituted by God, and throughout the Bible God treats this special union seriously.
If you are married or planning to be married, are you willing to keep the commitment that makes the two of you one?
This episode will cover just that and more!
The union of husband and wife merges
Episode #22: Living Missional Where God Has Placed Us
The church is God’s people on the move, a community of sojourners journeying toward the Promised Land. Yet in the busyness of everyday life, we can lose sight of this missional calling, sometimes focusing more on building our own name than bearing witness to His.
In today’s episode, we are reminded that our calling to reflect Christ’s kingdom in both word and action (Matthew 28:18–20) is central a
Episode #21 - Body Image: Confident in God’s Design
Society continually presents images and messages that shape how women view themselves, often influencing their sense of worth and identity. These pressures can promote harmful ideas and behaviors, leading some to live with a distorted understanding of who they truly are.
Today, we are reminded and encouraged that our worth, confidence, and value are found in Christ alone, just as God intended. We
Episode #20: Starting the Day with Jesus: Listening Before Doing.
Whether we acknowledge it or not, everyone has habits, but only a few intentionally craft the first part of their day with Jesus. Many people are satisfied with their destination, yet they neglect to enjoy the journey by using the first part of the day wisely.
In Scripture, Jesus took time to pray and to spend time with His Father. Finding that time may not always be easy, but our prayer life and
Episode 19: Forgiveness, When It Is Hard.
As fallen people living in a fallen world, we fail to understand we mishear, misspeak, misunderstand or we are not available when others need us. The result is often hurt, hurt that must be acknowledge and we must seek to forgive.
Today’s episode will teach us that forgiveness is a lifelong event. We cannot just say, “I forgive you” once and move on. To walk in an attitude of mercy, to forgive ov
Episode #18 - Inner Beauty that Endures: Proverbs 31 Woman.
In today’s society, it can be tempting to focus more on outward appearance rather than on cultivating Christlike character.
While Scripture does not forbid a woman from desiring to be attractive (1 Timothy 2:9), the Bible does teach us that genuine beauty begins within.
A gentle, modest, and loving spirit radiates a beauty that no cosmetic or piece of jewelry can ever replace.

Episode #16 - Called to be More: Discovering Your God given Purpose.
People are still searching. Yet the more they try to get, the more they realize how little they really have. No purpose, pleasure, or happiness is possible without God.
This podcast will discuss that purpose is not found in knowledge, money, pleasure, work, or popularity. Without God, purpose is a lost search. True purpose comes from knowing and loving God (John 14:15) and knowing that what we ar
Episode #15: Forgiveness, Healing the Inner Girl, Childhood Trauma, and God’s Restoration.
Healing and restoration are two fundamental aspects of our Christian faith that remind us of the power of God's love and grace. In times of struggle and pain we can reflect on God’s promises and find solace and strength in his word.

Episode #14: Trusting God through Life’s Transitions
Today we will look at the life and personal testimony of the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 12. The phrase, “When I am weak, then I am strong,” teaches us that there are times when God may answer a prayer with a “no.” This truth can be challenging to accept. Even on a human level, if an individual has difficulty saying “no,” it can be considered a fault. Some things should be said “no” to. God is n
