In this episode, I’m joined by eleven dear friends who share what their time in God’s Word looks like in their current season of life. You’ll hear from women in different stages—homeschooling moms, empty nesters, full-time workers, caregivers, young adults—each finding simple, real-life ways to stay in the Word.

Their routines may look different, but their hearts are the same: to draw near to Christ. My prayer is that their honest, grace-filled reflections encourage you right where you are and remind you that spending time with the Lord isn’t about perfection—it’s about meeting with Him daily, however that looks in your season.

Homemaking is so much more than just cooking and cleaning—it’s about creating the atmosphere of our homes. In today’s shorter devotional episode, I’m sharing a refreshed blog post that reminds us of the life-giving role the Lord has entrusted to us as Christian women.

True peace in our homes doesn’t come from having everything just right or crossing off our to-do list. It comes from Christ reigning in our hearts. The more we abide in Him—through His Word, prayer, and obedience—the more His peace flows into how we love and serve our families.

Because Jesus lives, every part of our lives is changed—not just our future but our everyday moments. His resurrection gives us hope when we’re weary, strength when we feel weak, and purpose in the unseen work of daily life. The empty tomb isn’t just something to celebrate once a year—it’s the foundation we build our lives on. How does the resurrection shape the way we trust God, love others, and walk through trials? This episode will encourage you to live in the light of this glorious truth every single day.

What does it mean to walk in wisdom with eternity in view?

So much of life is fleeting, but God calls us to set our hearts on what will last forever (Colossians 3:1-2). In this final episode of the Walking in Wisdom series, we’re stepping back to see the bigger picture—how wisdom not only guides our daily decisions but prepares us for eternity.

✅ Are we investing in what truly lasts—knowing Christ, growing in holiness, and pointing others to Him?

✅ Are we storing up treasures in heaven instead of being consumed by what will fade away?

✅ Are we living in light of eternity, keeping our eyes on Jesus?

Jesus reminds us: “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth… but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven” (Matthew 6:19-20).

This is about more than just wise choices for today—it’s about shaping our lives for eternity.

This is the second episode in our Walking in Wisdom series, where we’re looking at how biblical wisdom shapes the way we live each day. Wisdom isn’t just for the big decisions—it’s for the small, everyday choices that shape our lives.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it means to walk in wisdom in our daily routines, responsibilities, and relationships. How do we choose faithfulness over busyness? How can we speak with wisdom and listen with grace? What does it look like to seek God’s priorities in the middle of everyday life?

Ephesians 5:15-16 reminds us to “look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time.” If you’ve ever felt stretched thin or overwhelmed, I pray this conversation encourages you to pause, seek the Lord, and trust that He will direct your steps.

Wisdom isn’t just about knowledge—it’s about living in a way that honors the Lord in our daily choices. In a world full of distractions, how do we stay focused on what truly matters?

In this episode, we begin a three-part series on Walking in Wisdom, looking at what biblical wisdom really is, how it differs from worldly wisdom, and how we can seek the Lord’s guidance in our everyday lives. We’ll explore Ephesians 5:15-16, where Paul urges us to walk carefully, making the best use of our time because the days are evil.

Are we measuring our days by how much we accomplish, or by our faithfulness to the Lord? Are we seeking wisdom in the small, ordinary moments of life?

Join me as we lay the foundation for walking in wisdom, trusting God’s Word to guide our steps.
