She's Marked

I am thrilled to, for the first time in "She's Marked Podcast" history, host guest interviews.

You're in for a wellspring of wisdom as 3 of our featured "⁠⁠For the Moms⁠⁠" women are joining me here on the podcast. These talks aren't simply limited to motherhood. We touch on marriage, forgiveness, singleness, surrender, simplifying, and SO much more.

May is the month for nourishing, equipping and stirring Mothers. Tune in several ways to fill your cup all month long: She's Marked Podcast, The Marked Life Blog, The MRKD Store and enjoy a special tribute poem to Moms over on ⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠.

Moms pour out all they are and all they have for their children, and they need someone to come alongside them to refresh, encourage, and build them up. Karen feels that the Lord has called her to be a mom to moms (#themomsmom).

If she can help moms be emotionally healthy and strong, then she will be impacting their homes, their children, and their husbands. She believes healthy moms raise healthy children. Karen's Coaching Program, "A 90 Day Guide on How to bring Transformation to your Family and Revitalize your Life", empowers overwhelmed Moms who deal with constant demands to prioritize themselves so they can be the superwoman their family expects them to be. She helps them learn to maintain peace in the midst of chaos and stress, better manage their time, and find purpose in the mundane.

In this episode, Karen shares on:

- Waiting on the Lord for His perfect timing

- The willingness to put off our desires for God's best

- Healed moms birthing healed homes

- Life as an "old" mom

- Victoriously healing from the pain of your past

It takes a village to raise a child, but all too often, many mothers and fathers are swirling to take on multiple roles in their children's lives, with little support.

This is leaving Mothers - who are often the main caretakers - burnt out and stretched thin. 

Hannah shares an insightful article from Mother.ly regarding the absence of the village and shares some of what she learned about the severe impact that the absence of a village is having on today's Moms. 

More in this Episode:

- Tips on how mothers can establish their village

- The benefit and power in numbers and community

- Practical ways that we can offer support to the mothers around us

- For the Moms annual blog series

- and MORE!

Stay tuned for the She's Marked Podcast's FIRST round of guest interviews in May!

Missed episode 27 “Holding Fast to What You Have”? Listen here

*available on podcast listening platforms

When was the last time you counted your trials as joy?

A life with Christ doesn't mean a life void of troubles. We have to keep our aim in view, holding fast to what we have; our confession of faith, our righteousness, and being steadfast. The issues we encounter- though intense - are temporary. Hold on and don't lose your inheritance and who you were called to be!

It is so easy in a moment to feel the pull of wanting to tackle issues head on and fix things, prove your point, and defend your stance. In the midst of this, you can be swept up in anger, offense, confusion, entanglements, lusts, pursuits, and so much more. Especially when others don't respond the way that you expected or hoped for, or even needed. The injustices of life can shake you and really pull you out of character. The natural exhaustion that comes from all of our toil can make it a task to remain in Godly character and in mindset.

It is critical to have an accurate depiction of what the life of the Believer will look like here on earth. Scripture forewarns of the many tribulations before entering the Kingdom of Heaven. However, blessed is the one who stays steadfast and remains. If they pass the test, they will receive the crown of life.

Listen in to Episode 27 as Hannah goes deeper on this topic, what we should be holding fast to, and how to keep our aim in view.

Not too many people would list "brokenness" and "neediness" as attributes that attract or draw them to people.

However, we see in the Word, that Christ Himself said He came for these people. Those who were sick, broken, and oppressed.

Maybe God has healed you from brokenness, but you’ve found yourself on a downward slope, unsure of what is happening in this season or if you will ever come back.

Are these troubled times making you worry that you may never be healed at all?

Today, these 2 truths are highlighted:

Remember, healing is a process, and after the healing must come the “filling”.

Tune in to episode 26 now:

Quotes to Remember:

“Don’t let the enemy make you stumble in condemnation or rebellion."

“While you may be hiding from the Lord, consider that perhaps He is looking on you with compassion rather than judgment.”

“Even when the Lord has healed us, there is re-learning and reconditioning that has to occur.”

Scriptures:

Luke 19:10

Mark 2:13-17

Luke 15:11-32

We conclude the "5 in 5" week with Episode 25: In Christ Alone

Our hope, our redemption, and our purpose is found in Christ alone.

Life is certainly a vapor, and we are all on borrowed time. So, what are you doing that will last?

In episode 25, Listeners are charged to build their treasure in Heaven. For those who may not know how to do that, it starts with understanding that we are all born of a sin nature. We can never measure up or live up to all of God's laws and righteous standards in this state, hence our great need for a Savior. Without this Savior - Jesus Christ - and His shed blood, we remain guilty and unreconciled to God.

This newness of life, hope, and power is found in Christ alone. 

Quotes: 

"I'd rather not feel good and at least know that I have the truth, than to be warmed and fuzzied and accepted...in a total state of deception and lies."

"There is no other god, no other esteemed person, name or prophet, that walked the face of the earth, that is not still in the grave. Jesus Christ is the only one who rose from the grave." 

"While you work here on earth with your hands and your mind, with your skills and your strengths, never lose sight of your eternal destination."

I unexpectedly learned a lesson from nature about maturity.

It began when I researched trees and learned that there are two types of trees; evergreens and deciduous trees.

"D-what"?

I then learned what this interesting word means, and the definition was even more capturing than the word itself.

Are you ready? Deciduous literally means "falling off at maturity".

So, you're telling me that in the Spring when the tree's leaves seem to be coming to life and fast forward to the Summer when they are full and lush isn't actually when they have matured?

What world have I been living in for nearly 38 years? Surely, I've been fooled!

The leaves are mature when they basically die and fall off. I can't lie, this lesson from nature intrigued me. Can you sense where I am going with this lesson when I think of maturity in the realm of God's Kingdom and in the spirit?

As I went about my search, I happened upon this quote by John Bevere:

"Physical Maturity is bound to time. Spiritual Maturity is bound to obedience".

Obedience is a type of death. It's death of pride, selfish ambition and intentions/initiatives. It is a surrendering. a foregoing of your own directives and leadership. Oh, how profound, that as we surrender, as we die, as we lose our lives in obedience to the will of God, we live, we mature.

How are you growing?

This also sheds light on the fact that you can be in the faith for years and years and still be immature due to perpetual and chronic disobedience. You can be forfeiting your deciduous moment. Failing to mature.

Quotes to Remember:

"As we mature, there is a shedding that has to take place. And, as that shedding takes place (with our obedience) we begin to die to our flesh nature, we begin to die to our own leadership and governance and become strengthened."

"What is it that needs to die in your life in order for you to reach full maturity?"

What comes to your mind when you hear the word "anchor"?

I usually think of water, boats, and ships.

Secondly, I think of grounding, security, and weight.

I think of immovability.

Anchors essentially keep vessels from going adrift. How the anchor is crafted and where it's planted play significant roles in the outcome of that vessel too.

Why are anchors used in the first place? To keep a vessel in one place, and to combat strong wind and currents that want to move the vessel from its place.

Today we explore the depth and weight of our "anchors". With this in mind:

How firm is your faith?

One such way to strengthen and anchor our souls is through cleaving to life verses.

Listen in to find out:

- What a life verse is

*You won't want to miss the prayer toward the middle of the episode. I'll honestly be listening to this entire episode a couple of times to encourage myself.

Quotes to Remember:

"This is a different type of scripture that you will choose to rest on. That is what a life verse is."

Scripture References:

Hebrews 6:19

2 Corinthians 12:9

Hebrews 4:12
