Seeking Selah Podcast

This week, join Sara and Sarah Mae as they share a few Bible verses that hold special meaning for them, as well as what they are currently reading in God's Word. 

In this episode, Sarah Mae reads and discusses her life verse, and Sara gets fired up and passionate about what she's currently reading in scripture. Along the way are a few rabbit-trail side notes for your amusement, with topics including tattoos, a Christmas present gone wrong, and Justin Timberlake.

Join Sara and Sarah Mae this week to talk about love languages. After sharing their own love languages, the two discuss the warm and fuzzy side of them as well as the struggles and pitfalls. 

Sarah Mae discusses where she sees struggles in her relationships because of her love languages, and Sara explains times she has felt her tank was low in this area. They both discover they have at times unintentionally pushed their own love languages on to others…oops!

In this week's episode, Sara & Sarah Mae share pieces of their journey in learning to say "no".

Sara talks about how struggling or sometimes downright refusing, to say "no" has affected her in her career, relationship with others, and with God. Sarah Mae lists the reasons she thinks it's so hard for her to say "no", including one she and Sara have in common - people-pleasing. 

Join them for a frank discussion on the need for healthy boundaries in all areas of life from vocation to relationships. And, if you've ever needed more evidence that Sarah Mae is an old man, look no further than this episode!

In this week's episode, Sara & Sarah Mae discuss the reflections they each had after reading the story from Matthew 14 where Jesus walks on the water and invites Peter to do the same. Sarah Mae wonders how long it would have taken her to step out of the boat and shares how the fears of failure and disappointment are struggles that she has faced in the past. Sara asks herself the question, "Do I see the world through fear or faith?" She also shares how the fear of disappointing God or not being good enough has influenced her relationship with Him, and how He's inviting her to lay that fear down. They felt inspired to focus on this topic today because both of their pastors preached on this passage last week...coincidence? We think not!

Things look a bit different on the podcast this week. Sara & Sarah Mae have both been having one of those weeks when they are just feeling "grey," so they get really vulnerable and share what that's been like for them. Their hope for this episode is that it would bring comfort to their listeners to know that they are not alone, and through a time of praying Scripture that we would all be reminded that the Lord sees us, knows us and loves us unconditionally.
