Episode 453 // Finding Peace in God's Faithfulness (Bible Study & Devotional)

Hey Sis! 🎙️ 
Today's episode is all about finding freedom in God's faithfulness! We're diving deep into 1 Timothy 6:11-12, where we discover what it truly means to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness. Our devotional from New Year, New Mercies by Paul Tripp delivers such a powerful truth: your life isn't resting on your shoulders—it's on God's!
Sis, if you've been carrying the weight of trying to be faithful in your own strength, this episode is your reminder that God's faithfulness isn't dependent on your performance. He remains steady even when we stumble, and His grace is what empowers our journey forward.
Join me for today's soul-filling conversation, including our weekly spiritual check-in, as we grow closer to God together! 💛

Episode 452 // Called to Endure: Trusting God’s Provision Today (Bible Study & Devotional)

Hey Sis! 🎙️ 
Today’s episode is all about perseverance—not in your own strength, but in God's. As we dive into 1 Timothy 6:11-12, we're reminded to pursue righteousness, faith, and love while holding tightly to the eternal life we've been called to. Our devotional from New Year, New Mercies by Paul Tripp encourages us that endurance isn’t about our own ability but about God's unwavering faithfulness. Even when we falter, He carries us through. You don’t have to rely on your own strength—He is the God who sustains you!
Tune in for encouragement, scripture, and a reminder that you are never alone in your faith journey. Let’s do this together! 💛

Episode 451 // Sick of Striving for Approval? Try This Biblical Truth Instead! (Bible Study & Devotional)

Hey Sis! 🎙️ 
Today’s episode is all about embracing the light God has placed in you and letting it shine in the world around you. No more hiding under a bushel! We’re looking at Matthew 5:14-16 and 1 Timothy 6:11-12, along with Day 11 of New Year, New Mercies by Paul Tripp.
Too often, we seek validation from others instead of resting in the righteousness already secured for us in Christ. But today, we’re shifting our focus vertically—because real peace isn’t found in success or approval, but in Him alone. 🙌🏾
As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day! 
Love y’all! 💕

Episode 449 // Forgetful Faith? How to Remember Who You Are in Jesus (Bible Study & Devotional)

Hey Sis! 🎙️ 
Have you ever thought about how God placed you in this lifetime, at this moment, for a reason? As we often hear in Esther 4:14, we are here for such a time as this. Let’s take a moment today to acknowledge and share our gratitude for the people God has placed in our lives.
📖 Scripture Focus: Romans 8:7-11
💡 Key Takeaways:
The enemy thrives on deception, but God calls us to know His Word for ourselves.
Sin is not life-giving—it takes from us. The Holy Spirit, on the other hand, leads us to true life.
Fear and faith cannot coexist. When we forget who we are and Whose we are, we experience identity amnesia.
2 Chronicles 32:7-8 reminds us that we do not fight our battles alone. God is with us!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ 
Have you ever known something all your life, but then one day, it just clicks in a whole new way? 🤯

🔹 Encouragement to show up—even when it’s messy—because God always meets us there
🔹 How to live with a contented heart and stop looking around you when you should look up! 
Devo: New Year, New Mercies—Today, we’re talking about contentment and how God’s grace frees us from the cycle of comparison and craving.

Episode 444 // Struggling with Uncertainty? How to Strengthen Your Faith as You Wait on God (“New Year, New Mercies” Devotional and Bible Study)

Hey Sis! 🎙️ 
 
Today’s episode is one that speaks straight to the heart—especially if you’ve ever found yourself in a season of waiting, uncertainty, or grief.
 
We’re diving into 2 Peter 1:5-8 and reflecting on how God’s truth remains constant, even when life feels unpredictable. We’ll also be reading Day 4 of "New Year, New Mercies" by Paul Tripp, a powerful devotional that reminds us:
💡 There is no mystery with God. He is never surprised, never caught off guard, and never without a plan.
