August 17, 2021Season 5 Episode 3 when you're HARD PRESSED
Hey there, Chosen Girl Fam! Welcome back to season 5, epsiode THREE of the pod!
Our world feels extremely heavy right now, so we wanted to take a mental health check and chat about being hard pressed in life, and how to navigate these times. (please note, this episode was recorded before the hard times many are facing now in Afganistan with the taking over of the Taliban).
Today we ask, and attempt to answer, the important questions like:
What is going on? How do we prepare our heart, mind, spirit?
Why does our posture matter?
How do we talk about this?
How do we react as a believer?
How do we navigate being a Christian with a church that is ultimately divided on a huge global issue?
You can find scripture references we refer to here:
Luke 6:45

2 Corinthians 5:20

1 Corinthians 13
We hope you find this episode as a breath of fresh air and as some encouragement during this time in history, and our personal lives. Our hearts are with those in tribulation in Afganistan, and as always, our hearts are with you, too!

August 10, 2021Season 5 Episode 2 GOSSIP
Chosen girl fam! Welcome back to Season 5, Episode 2 of the podcast! Today, we are chatting about GOSSIP for the first time, which I cannot believe has never come up in our topics!
Gossip seems cliche to chat about in the "christian" culture of topics, but when you're in the thick of a situation, its hard to escape (whether you are the gossip-ER or gossip-E. lol)
Today, join us as we talk all things gossip and attempt to go to the Word to answer some difficult questions about the topic, as well as dive into the outcomes of gossip in relationships.
Some scripture references we allude to include:
Ephesians 4:29

James 1:26

James 4:11

Proverbs 11:19

Proverbs 16:28

Proverbs 18:21

Proverbs 20:19

August 03, 2021Season 5 Episode 1 STAY READY!
CHOSEN GIRL FAM! How did we get here!? (we know, we know, GOD). Its SEASON FIVE of the podcast and we are so blessed, humbled, and so grateful to be here. Thank you for loving us. Thank you for walking with us. Thank you for listening! We love you guys and you will never know how grateful we both are for the gift of this platform to learn and grow in Him together!
TODAY, we are starting this season with a BANG, chatting about the concept of "staying ready so we dont have to get ready!" YES, YOU READ THAT CORRECTLY!
Of course, in faith, this could mean a number of things: staying ready spiritually, in your faith, mentally, or even physically (disclaimer you'll hear: we are NOT talking diets, y'all. You should know us better than that! lol). For a great, biblically lived-out example, we are turning to the book of Daniel!
Some other verses we will reference include:
“Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.” 1 Peter 5:8

“Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 1:13

“The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers.” 1 Peter 4:7

"No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it." Hebrews 12:11
We hope and pray this episode impacts you just as much as it did us. There is such beauty that comes with knowing God, rather than just knowing of God. There is such blessing and peace that comes from making God your life, not just an "add on."

May 25, 2021 Season 4 Epsisode 14 MENTAL HEALTH with Bethany Harrison
**trigger warning, we discuss miscarriage briefly in this episode**

FRIENDS! Literally crying at the fact that this is the SEASON FINALE of season 4 of the pod! We have been so blessed by this season and so appreciate you loving and supporting the community that is Chosen Girl. We love you so much, and we treasure each episode with you.
As for today's episode...ladies, buckle up and hunker down for today's chat with our dear friend, Bethany Harrison. Bethany is a dear friend of mine that I have known since pre-school, but we have recently bonded over the last couple of years through the "magic" of adult life. (lol). Bethany is our enneagram 6, musical-loving queen and the kind of "real" that makes you want to be the truest authentic version of yourself alongside her. She is a mom of 3 adorable boys in our community just east of Nashville, and writes for her blog, Surviving till Sunday. (yes, you will 1000% want to subscribe!).
Today we chat about a lot of things, as we usually do when together, like walmart, mom bods, cicadas, instagram, and more, but when I tell you we did a deep dive into trusting/doubting God, we dove deep, yall.
Tune in to hear her miraculous story of conception, birth, overcoming sickness, depression, and literal near-death experiences that led her from questioning everything in her faith to what she describes as God being her most "treasured friendship." She can speak this because she lived this. We pray her story and authenticity with wrestling with God touches you as much as it has us.

May 18, 2021 Season 4 Episode 13 NEW TESTAMENT ADVICE COLUMN PT. 2
Hey, ladies! Welcome back to another week of diving into the Word for practical life advice built on the TRUTH of God's Word!
On this week's episode we are continuing the mojo from last week, diving into the book of ROMANS for more advice that still rings true even hundreds, THOUSANDS, of years later. Again, we as a human race have always been flawed and in desperate need of God's grace and wise instruction.
Our boy, Paul, is writing again here, again, in prison, and gives the most practical advice, but also instruction on application. Knowing the truth is one thing, LIVING that truth is another. Thats when lives are changed by the gospel.
So, ladies, grab your favorite Bible translation and notebook, turn to the book of Romans with us, and lets get crackin!

May 11, 2021 Season 4 Episode 12 New Testament Advice Column
HEY HEY Chosen Girl tribe! We can't WAIT to dive into the pure wisdom from God's Word in today's episode.
The past three weeks, we have talked all things toxicity: relationships, thoughts, culture, and even religion. As fun as it sometimes is to chat about what gets under our skin most, it does no good to do so if that talk of pointing to what is so wrong without pointing to what is true and right.
Last week, we talked religious toxicity. Good news is, that's nothing new! Even the early church and religious leaders needed advice on how to conduct themselves in faith.
Today we chat about this wise advice from just one of the many New Testament letters to one of the early churches, Ephesians!
Y'all- we could have let this episode be 3 hours long. There is SO much goodness in the letters of God's Word to His church.
We hope this episode is as much of a breath of fresh air to you as it was to us. This advice is SO needed, and amazingly rings true even thousands of years later. That is the beauty of God's Word.
So, sis, grab a cup of coffee, your favorite translation of the Bible, a notepad and your favorite pen. Let's get to studying, so we can start doing.

April 27, 2021Season 4 Episode 10 Truth>Toxicity Pt. 2
ITS TELL ME BOUT IT TUESDAY, fam! And today, we are continuing with our mini-series: truth>toxicity! We are READY to have a real talk with you all about toxicity in religion, and even the Church.
First, for disclaimers:
We LOVE the Church. We mean no disrespect! We BELIEVE in the Church and support it 100%! We are just navigating real pain and mess-ups that we as humans have committed within the body of Christ.

We believe the best in people. We have hope. We love to approach this with the heart-posture that the hearts of people in ministry and faith are in the right place, but often times we get the method of sharing our faith, wrong.

The viewpoint here is through the lens of HUMILITY, and only humility. We cannot address how humanity in the church has messed up without confessing that WE have, or will, mess up in proclaiming the gospel, too.

The answer to issues with humans is always, always, always JESUS.
OKAY, now that those very important truths have been addressed, lets hop in to some very real questions that address where we as humans have slipped up with delivering the simplicity of the Gospel of Jesus:
What is the Church?

What is our role?

What is our role as a christian in a misunderstood religion?

How do we respond to: 1) When friends/neighbors have been hurt by religion. 2) When we may be in a toxic situation ourselves.

How do we know when something in Church/Religious culture is toxic?
Join us today and we have a real-talk type of chat about this very real questions and point to the ultimate truth that we cannot misplace the promises of God for the people of God.
It is so important that we fix our gaze on things ABOVE us and not AROUND us. Jesus is our ONE perfect example for us, and because of Him, we can be made complete in our weaknesses and (praise, God) be seen as righteous in His eyes. Its ONLY because of Him! PRAISE!
We encourage you to join us in the studying of early letters written to the church (spoiler alert, we have always missed the mark in one way or another!). You can find these letters in the New Testament:
Romans

Corinthians

Galatians

Ephesians

Philippians

Colossians

Thessalonians

Hebrews
That we can’t defend our entire Church reputation, but if we humble ourselves, it can start with us!

April 13, 2021Season 4 Episode 8 TRUTH>toxicity pt. 1
Sisters we are BACK! Thank you for bearing with us during our break last week as we here in Middle TN dealt with major flooding and cleanup in our area. If you think about it, send up a prayer for our neighbors and friends who are still in recovery!
God is good and He made His people to be resilient! We are back with a 2 part series called truth>toxicity! We are here to shed light on many toxic mindsets, relationships, and cultural norms that could be toxic to our spirit. We are NOT here to give glory to toxic nature, rather, overcome it with the TRUTH of God's word!
On today's episode, we explore toxicity with ourselves and with our relationships in our lives.
Here are some sure-fire signs of toxicity in your life (these and so many more):
Signs you may have a toxic relationship with yourself:
You don’t show yourself grace

You self-medicate or self soothe

When the truth of God is for everyone but you

You serve/give to others to the point of burnout (saying yes too much)

You ignore your body, mind and spirit when triggered

you give into spiraling toxic thoughts

Replacing your perspective on the situation with the truth of the situation.
Signs you may be in an unhealthy relationship with others:
You hide things/Dishonesty

You always give in to their way, or they always give into yours

Unnecessary Guilt

One-sided effort

They put you down/you feel drained

You’re co-dependent

They make you feel insecure

You feel the need to strategize everything, down to conversations

Abusive

You change yourself to be what they want: appearance, opinions, beliefs

You’re unhappy

There’s more dread than positive anticipation

You justify bad behavior for them or yourself

Constant testing of boundaries

You feel unsettled in your spirit
