Ep. 157 - Enjoy this important replay. Christian women are notorious for giving "feel good" encouragement. It might not be true. It might not be biblical. But, it makes us feel good in the moment. 

"You're enough."
"Your turn is next!"
"You'll get that baby soon."
"Marriage is in your future."
"Good things are coming your way."

These all sound nice and great and make me feel good... but are they true? Are they biblical? 

In today's episode, we're unpacking why this "fluffy feel good" advice is more damaging than helpful.

Ep 175 - Choosing to stay home with your kids isn't the most glamorous job. In fact, there aren't promotions, raises, or a paycheck. You won't get an annual company party with other employees celebrating your achievements and patting you on the back. Most often the opposite is true. You're left exhausted by the end of the day. The accolades are few. The rewards aren't always visible. So why do women choose homemaking and motherhood? Is it possible that this path is even MORE fulfilling than most other career choices?

Why Homemaking is a Successful Career Choice for Women

Ep. 174 - Motherhood is one of the most beautiful and complicated callings in the world. You'd give your life for your babies and you feel like you're losing your mind at the very same time. That's when the lies enter your mind. It's crucial as Christian women to turn to God's Word for truth to guide our emotions.

Allow us to change your perspective in this conversation on the cooking, cleaning and the kitchen.

From Abandonment, Abuse, and Sex Work to Freedom in Christ.

Ep 171 - Imagine wanting to change your entire lifestyle because of what you see on social media. That is the reality for many women. We see. We want. We get anxious because we don't have. We do whatever we can to achieve that lifestyle. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. 

The anxiety of trying to "measure up" on social media is too much. Let's discuss how we can be rooted in truth and have pease even when our lives are less than Instagram worthy.
