In today's episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Natalie tackle an essential aspect of raising mentally strong Christian girls: decision-making. How do we empower our daughters to make choices that build both confidence and character? The world presents our girls with countless decisions every day, some with more significant stakes than others. Whether it's choosing between two good things or navigating decisions with long-term consequences, teaching girls how to discern wisely is crucial for their development.

Drawing from their own experiences, Rachael and Natalie share practical strategies to help your girl become a confident decision-maker—whether it's through prayer, evaluating choices with a pros-and-cons list, or understanding the consequences of her actions. They dive into a real-life story from American Heritage Girls, where Rachael's daughter learned the value of responsibility and the weight of procrastination. It's an inspiring reminder that sometimes letting our girls experience the consequences of their decisions is the most empowering way to prepare them for the future.

Rachael and Natalie also emphasize the importance of rooting decision-making in prayer. By aligning our desires with God's will, as modeled by Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, our girls can make choices anchored in faith rather than fear. They explore key Scriptures like Psalm 37:4 and Matthew 6, which teach the power of submitting our will to God's perfect plan.

Whether your daughter is facing decisions about friendships, school, or faith, this episode offers valuable insight into how we, as parents, can equip her with the tools to thrive in every stage of life. Tune in for practical advice, Biblical encouragement, and empowering stories to guide your girl in becoming a wise decision-maker who honors God.
