DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

What is the difference between biblical literacy and biblical fluency?

Where are some areas of your life in which you might need to walk in more obedience so as to increase collateral blessing to others? How does knowing you are freed from the power of sin and indwelt by the Holy Spirit help you choose obedience over sin?

How can you live out of the rest God offers us even when we do sin—knowing he will never break covenant with us and will never leave nor forsake us?

What are some ways you could gather to discuss the Word in community if you don’t already?

What might you do or implement based on what you learned in this week’s episode?

Today we’re sharing a conversation with our friend Abbey Wedgeworth about how the gospel—and specifically Christ’s righteousness—meets you in every part of life, even in the mundane and even shame-filled moments of motherhood. And while we’ll focus on the everyday realities mothers experience, this conversation isn’t just for moms; whether you’re in a season of motherhood or not, this episode will deeply encourage you as you seek to apply the gospel to the ordinary moments of your own life.

On today's show, we have an Advent devotional by our host, Hunter Beless. We wanted to offer you the gift of pressing pause–the opportunity to reflect together upon Christ as you continue preparing for the holidays that are upon us. You have all been such a gift to us over the years, and we’re so glad we get to reflect upon the greatest gift we have ever received in Christ week after week through interviews on the Journeywomen podcast. If you’d like to help us in this work as we continue it in 2026, you can learn more about how to do that at journeywomen.org/give.
