What does it actually look like to prepare yourself for spiritual warfare?

In Episode 21 of Favor in Beauty, we're talking about one of the most practical passages of Scripture when it comes to standing firm in our faith: Ephesians 6:10–18 and the Armor of God.

Spiritual warfare can sound intimidating, but God hasn't left us defenseless. Scripture gives us specific weapons and tools to help us stand firm—and in this episode, we're breaking down each piece of the armor and talking about what it can look like to put it into practice in everyday life.

We'll walk through: The belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit.

If you've ever felt spiritually exhausted, attacked, distracted, discouraged, or unsure how to respond when life feels like a battle, this episode is for you.

You don't have to walk into the battle unprepared.

Life has looked a lot different lately, and in this short catch-up episode I'm sharing where I've been, what's been happening behind the scenes, and why I'm returning  even more thankful for God's faithfulness.

If you've been in a season of waiting for healing, breakthrough, direction, restoration, or answered prayer, I want to leave you with a verse that has encouraged me over and over again: Habakkuk 2:3.

Sometimes it feels like God is taking longer than we expected. But Scripture reminds us that His promises are never late. What He has spoken will come to pass in His perfect timing.

If you're discouraged, tired, or wondering if God has forgotten you, this episode is a gentle reminder to keep trusting Him. The vision is still for an appointed time.

In this episode:

• Where I've been
• Why Favor in Beauty is back
• A simple encouragement from Habakkuk 2:3
• Hope for anyone waiting on God

Do your friends follow Jesus?

In this episode of Favorite and Beauty, we talk about why godly community matters more than we often realize. Faith was never meant to be lived alone, and the people we walk with can either strengthen or strain our relationship with God.

This conversation explores the difference between casual connection and godly friendship, why community can be difficult, and how God uses relationships to sustain us through hard seasons.

If you’ve ever felt lonely in your faith or longed for deeper, Christ-centered relationships, this episode is for you.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

• Why God designed us for community from the beginning
• The difference between casual connection and godly friendship
• How the people we walk with shape our faith and spiritual growth
• Why community can be difficult—but still necessary
• What to do when you long for godly friendships but don’t know where to start

Key Scripture References:

• Genesis 2:18
• Ecclesiastes 4:9–12
• Proverbs 27:17
• Galatians 6:2
• Hebrews 10:24–25

Psalm 91 is known as the Psalm of protection, but protection doesn’t always mean the absence of pain.

In this episode, I share how my personal experiences with suffering reshaped the way I understand God’s promises. From job loss and financial uncertainty to mental and emotional battles, I learned that faith doesn’t exempt us from hardship, but it anchors us in it.

We explore:

• The common misunderstanding of Psalm 91
• Why suffering is assumed in Scripture
• What “dwelling in the secret place” really means
• How God becomes a refuge during pain, not an escape from it
• A personal testimony of loss, waiting, and surrender
• Why God’s protection often looks different than we expect

This episode is for anyone wrestling with disappointment, unanswered prayers, or the tension between believing God’s promises and living through pain.

Scriptures Referenced:

• Psalm 91
• Romans 10:9

In this honest and God-centered episode, I’m sharing the lessons divorce taught me about the true meaning of marriage and God’s original design for the covenant. Whether you’re single, dating, or preparing for marriage, this conversation will help you understand what to look for, what to pray for, and how to prepare your heart before you say “I do.”

We’ll explore:

• What the Bible reveals about God’s design for marriage
• The dangers of entering marriage unhealed or unprepared
• The difference between character and chemistry
• Essential conversations to have before engagement

We all live with regrets, but what if the real issue isn’t regret, it’s shame? 

In this episode of Favor In Beauty: The Podcast, we explore how shame becomes the root of regret and how Jesus invites us to release both. Through the story of the woman at the well (and a few others), Jenaé discusses the truth about identity, redemption, and grace.

Your past may explain you, but it doesn’t define you... because Jesus already handled your shame.
