September 21, 2021 16:12 - 10 minutes - 11.3 MBI mean...who wouldn't stare? God tells Noah that He is going to flood the entire earth and kill everything on land and in the air... and Noah believes Him and builds a ginormous boat that is no where near water. Weird, right? The reality of this biblical count is NOTHING like the murals we see painted on nursery walls. What kind of physical and emotional exhaustion did Noah experience while obeying God?

June 21, 2021 16:24 - 14 minutes - 15.8 MBHow do you know if you crave control? Have you ever thought (or actually said), “If I don’t get this done, it won’t get done at all.” Or how about, “If this doesn’t get done my way, it won’t be done good enough.” Or “If I had been in charge of this, it would have been done better.” Have you ever gone back and redone something that someone else has done after you ”trusted” them to do it?

April 26, 2021 03:00 - 13 minutes - 15.2 MBMy name is Abigail. My husband, Nabel, is not a good or kind man. His name means “fool” and boy does he live up to it! How could not recognize the danger in dismissing David as a warrior? And not just any warrior, a powerful one that had been anointed as the next King of Israel. David’s reputation is known everywhere! My husband’s pride truly knows no bounds. This time, I know that the consequences are well beyond just my own embarrassment.

Ep 14 - Unexpected ENDINGS expected by God
March 30, 2021 17:17 - 15 minutes - 16.4 MBMy intention this week was to share my friend Melinda’s story. She is on the same road of divorce that I am but years ahead of me where there is now redemption and reconciliation, but not in the way she was expecting. And we tried. Several times in fact. However, it is clear that God has decided it is not yet time for that story to be shared and that is okay. But...now what? I had this climactic story to end my first podcast season with and things just didn’t pan out that way. But God has ...
EP 13 - DIVORCE. The "gift" that keeps on giving.
March 23, 2021 02:53 - 15 minutes - 15.2 MBIn America, a divorce occurs every 13 seconds. That means that in the 2 mins that it takes for an engaged couple the recite their vows, 9 other married couples are breaking them. Given that information, it is hard to imagine that there is anyone in our country that has not had their life touched by divorce in some way. Either personally, as a child, through family or friends. And if you haven’t, you are very blessed. But if you have, then there are likely a few things you will hear in the...
Ep 12 - Encouraging your kids to God's glory, not theirs
March 15, 2021 03:00 - 12 minutes - 13.4 MBGod tells us that we need to raise our children with dedication and effort, preparing them, not just for the worldly battles they will fight against in a culture that is becoming increasingly anti-Christian, but also for the spiritual battles they will encounter as the enemy fights against their pursuit of Godliness. As a Christian parent, your job is to point your kids’ focus upward instead of inward, but how do you actually do that in the middle of making sure they are fed, clothed, res...
BONUS Ep - 5 ways to be INTIMATE with your husband
March 11, 2021 04:00 - 12 minutes - 11.9 MBAs women, we may confuse “intimacy” with “intercourse” and want to avoid it for one reason or another. Or we confuse “intimacy” with “romance” and have unrealistic expectations of what it should look like. But let me tell you a little secret I learned while God was redeeming my marriage just a few years ago - intimacy is way more than just flowers and sex. Intimacy is the experience of really knowing someone and being known by them. God designed us to stay connected with our husbands and i...

March 08, 2021 04:00 - 13 minutes - 14 MBIf you have been married more than 5 minutes and have not criticized your husband OR questioned his plans (either out loud OR in your head), then you deserve a trophy! But for those of you who are guilty of this ugly little habit, let’s talk about why you need to break it along with specific actions you can take to live out Hebrews 10:24-25 in your marriage and stir up your husband to love and good works and encourage him all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Ep 10 - Why did God make me THIS way?
March 01, 2021 04:00 - 13 minutes - 14.2 MBI admit I don’t mince words. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I was embarrassed when a USMC Commanding Officer had seen my cut and dry directness as an asset. I was defensive when a woman from my church saw it as a pretty major personality flaw. And I felt exposed when the Holy Spirit began to convict me about how I was using this "personality superpower." You may not be direct, but do you have a personality trait that has ever left you feeling embarrassed, defensive, or exposed? ...
Ep 9 - Can you actually fix a BROKEN friendship?
February 22, 2021 03:30 - 10 minutes - 11 MBThe fact is that the closer you are to someone, the higher the risk of experiencing brokenness in your relationship. Have you ever been in a close relationship that has experienced some serious friction? I am not talking about the irritation that comes from spending too much time together. No, what I am talking about is the kind of conflict that cuts you deep because you think the other person would never consider hurting you in that way. How do you navigate a friendship or any, relation...

Ep 6 - What is a REAL relationship with Jesus?
February 01, 2021 00:13 - 16 minutes - 14.9 MBI knew who Jesus was, and, if you had asked me if I believed what the Bible said about Him, I would have said yes, but despite claiming to be Christian all my life, I didn’t actually bring Jesus into my life. One October morning I sat in the pew listening to the preacher talk about sin and the consequences of it being eternal suffering in Hell. I remember thinking, "my soon-to-be ex-husband needs to hear this." And then it happened. God pulled back the veil and I heard Him say, “This mess...
BONUS - Real Accountablity DOESN'T Suck
January 28, 2021 00:06 - 4 minutes - 5.08 MBJust because sanctification is something we each go through personally, it doesn’t mean we have to go through it alone. Are you in a relationship with another Christian woman with who you can be honest about your spiritual life? Not someone who will judge you for your sin struggles. Not someone who tells you that your sin isn’t that big of a deal and to not worry about it. But someone who cheers for you when you have had a breakthrough and who lifts you up when you have a breakdown. Be...

Ep 5 - Santification SUCKS - Can I say that?!
January 25, 2021 04:00 - 10 minutes - 11.7 MBSanctification isn’t just about setting boundaries or safeguards around sin. It isn’t just about not drinking, cursing, or yelling. You can’t just dress modestly, and avoid watching Rated R movies or listening to mainstream music. It’s not enough to just show up to service and Sunday school once a week or join a small group. Sanctification is not simply controlling your behavior so you look holy, it is about God changing your heart so that you become holy. And the truth is: Sanctifica...

Is this what I am supposed to be doing with my life? Really, is there nothing more?! Is there an area of your life where you wonder why God gave you talents or passion and then orchestrated a life for you where you are not able to use it? Are you frustrated? Resentful? Do you ever think that maybe is God is keeping something from you or holding you back? There are so many situation...
Ep 1: The day I SCREAMED at God (and He responded)
January 13, 2021 00:57I have this great t-shirt that always gets laughs whenever I wear it. It says, "Losing My Mind One Kid at Kid at a Time." When people find out I have 5 kids, their eyes get real big and they start nodding like they completely understand why I have lost my mind. Like I have a “good excuse” to be a basketcase of a mother. Here’s the thing, they had no idea what I was really dealing with. My anger was not funny. And then it happened, the day that I decided to have it out with God. For full...
