This one goes out to all our single sisters! In this episode my dear friend Araceli Godoy returns to share real talk about the struggles Single Women deal with. From the continual battle with our heart to the intense battle with our flesh these are things you won't be hearing in church!

What is true love? What should I look for in a godly man? How can I honor God in my relationship with my boyfriend? Join me as Author Bethany Beal of Girl Defined Ministries shares the Biblical answers for these questions and more in this episode of Strength Dignity Life.

You ever been chillin at a coffee shop head phones on listening to a random playlist when all of a sudden you actually listen to what the song is saying, in that moment your thoughts fill with scenes from your life where God has been ridiculously good to you and out of a thankful heart…”niagra falls” tears starting pouring down your cheeks so you run outside to avoid a scene and your mind continues to generate Thankful thoughts of God’s goodness. Yeah, that pretty much sums up what you are gonna hear in this episode. So get your tissue box because its about to get real!

The Holidays are rough for those coming from a fatherless home. Our heart and minds are in continual conflict- on one hand you wish your dad would show up or maybe just call but all you are left with is high hopes and broken dreams.

Join me as I share about how I dealt with the hurt of not having my dad around for the holidays and how bitterness can be overcome by the truth found in the Bible.

From daddy’s little girl to a fatherless statistic in one night. In this episode I tell the stories of living in a migrant family in “cockroach motels” and creepy beds. Yes friends you learn to survive that life until the night “concerned citizens” show up at your door and drop a major “bomb” on your mom in front of you and your brother, then in one night your life is never the same.

Hear as I share the things I would have told myself then straight from the Father right from His word.

This episode tells the story of one of the greatest influences to Strength & Dignity Life my Nana Irene. The woman who impacted my life with vivid memories like pan dulce and Nescafe to Winnie the Pooh and John F. Kennedy. I share about how my parents would send me to church with her while they stayed home. How the greatest peace I experienced as a kid was in my grandmothers church on the eastside of town. This many years later I share what I wish someone had told me then that God is not confined to a building and that peace is available anytime anyplace.

To every girl who has a grandma who faithfully prays on her knees and took you to church this episode is sure to bring back memories.

Whenever Araceli and I get together you know there’s gonna be big laughs and lots of Bible coming at you. This episode is no different! Join us for some real talk on some of the curve balls we have had thrown at us in life as well as Biblical truth to get you through when God’s the one who ordered a change up!
