We are in part 3 of the Cancer Survivor Series, and today I am speaking about the struggles of cancer survivorship, how God’s grace can be repulsive (yes, I said REPULSIVE), and how negative feelings stem from a distorted view of God. Throughout this episode, I unpack the struggles of surviving cancer and how God's loving kindness was painful to receive.

Welcome back to the Cancer Survivor Series! We are in part two and today I will continue to share about my walk through cancer. I’ll focus on 2021 and the six-month period during which I went through chemotherapy. As you listen to the five things I did during chemo to grow in my faith, you’ll also notice this time was a concerted effort to reduce physical and spiritual toxins as I surrendered to the Lord during that time. This episode is meant to be descriptive, not prescriptive. I’m not on a mission to convert or convince anyone to navigate their health journeys in a particular way. I do think there’s value in sharing what the Lord did through my experience, so I pray this is a blessing to you! Let’s jump in!

Welcome to part FIVE of our Theology Matters Series. This is the final episode in our Theology Matters Series, and the final episode of this long, almost 3-year season as we prepare to take a break this summer. In today’s episode, I took time to speak with Shanda Fulbright, and answer the question: should you know how to defend your faith as a Christian woman? This episode is all about apologetics, the importance of knowing what you believe and why you actually do need to be able to defend your faith, especially in today’s culture.
Let me tell you about Shanda: Shanda Fulbright is a wife, mom to three boys, and the host of the Her Faith Inspires podcast where she takes cultural issues and tackles them with biblical truth. She is the co-author of Let’s Get Real: Examining the Evidence for God with Dr. Frank Turek, as well as Train Your Brain: An Introduction to Logic and Baseline Apologetics. She is the author and creator of Baseline Apologetics, a curriculum for adults who want to learn apologetics and the Bible.She teaches students of all ages the basics of Christian apologetics, and stresses the importance of biblical literacy as the path to a biblical worldview.
This is a conversation every woman needs to listen to, even and especially if you are a woman who has no intention of engaging in debates or confrontational conversations. In today’s conversation, we offer a very down-to-earth introduction to Christian apologetics and illustrate how to live this branch of Christian theology out in your everyday life.

Welcome to part FOUR of this Theology Matters Series. Today I take time to answer the question: how does theology affect discipleship and your relationships as a Christian woman?
There are two primary areas I focus on during this episode: discipleship [how you intentionally or unintentionally disciple others] and accountability in your relationships [specifically your relationships with other Christians]. I also touch on culture, more specifically the postmodern era and how to navigate postmodern ideology as a Christian; illustrations of poor theology impacting your ability to properly disciple other Christians; and the affect your theology has on your life and witness to those who are not Christians.

Welcome to PART THREE of our Theology Matters Series! In today’s episode, I share a conversation I had with Robin Rhine McDonald.
Robin Rhine McDonald is a Faith-Based Holistic Health Coach, proud mom and wife with a passion for supporting and empowering Jesus-loving women to gain true health while losing weight through her sustainable, grace-based process. She loves to help women ditch chronic dieting and disease for holistic health and wellness. She mixes her seminary background with her study of integrative nutrition to help women develop the energy and vitality to live out their unique God-given calling.
As we talked through Robin’s testimony and heart for health, we kind of naturally went down the path of weaving theology into the conversation. Robin and I discussed how your theology affects your health, whether you’re aware of it or not. Robin ended our conversation by offering some practical application for taking care of yourself and honoring the temple God gave you. Robin and I had this really natural flow that was, no doubt, led by the Holy Spirit, and despite us initially connecting to discuss a different topic, we ended up here. I’m confident you will enjoy this down-to-earth conversation! I’m excited for you to get to know Robin and will include links to her show and a gift she has for you right here in the show notes.

Welcome to part two of our Theology Matters Series! Today, I’m sharing a conversation with my friend, Heather Preston.
Heather is a professional writer with a Master of Arts in Theological Studies. As a consultant she works with churches and pastors and has a passion for academic collaborations. Heather hosts a podcast called Scripts on Scripture where she discusses all things Bible with pastors and fellow writers. Her most recent book is entitled Between the Lines.
During this conversation, Heather shared her definition of theology and defined some important terms like hermeneutics and exegesis. We dove into how to read the Bible properly, including what information you should know when studying through a particular book of the Bible. Heather also offered an encouraging perspective on why you need to engage in proper study and interpretation of God’s Word. We ended with Heather explaining why she believes Theology Matters. I loved having this conversation. I pray it blesses you big! If I were you, I would grab a notebook or open a note on your phone because you are going to want to take some notes!

Welcome to this month’s series… THEOLOGY MATTERS!
If you’ve been craving a deeper dive into theology, this series is one you don’t want to miss! I’m so excited to dive into the topic of theology, why it matters and how it affects our everyday walks as Christian women. In today’s series intro, I’m going to answer the questions: What is theology? Why does theology matter? Do we need theology to grow as Christian women?
Throughout this series, I’ll introduce some topics that, I believe, are crucial for all Christian women to consider and confidently grow in. I’ll end today’s episode with an intro to the topics we’ll cover throughout the rest of the series and give you a little sneak peak into who you’ll be hearing from and what we’ll be discussing during this month’s series.
Please be sure to share today’s episode with your friends, family, small group sisters and any other women who will enjoy growing deeper in the knowledge and understanding of the triune God and our Christian faith.
