This Changed My Life, with Emilie McCormack episodes

  • Word & Spirit Are Not Divorced

    The Spirit of God and the Word of God are one.

    But sadly, so many of us have divorced them in our hearts, minds & actions. (I think due to the misuse we’ve seen. Or fear).

    If we want to know God- all of Him- we must say:

    I want all of You. All of the Father, Son, and Spirit. Hold nothing back, Lord.

  • Shame Be Gone
    How many times have we heard "shame on you" spoken towards someone. Or how many times have we said it ourselves? Friends, shame is not from God. Shame makes us hide. Shame makes those we love hide. Shame does not lead to true repentance. 
    Let's be people who know the heart of the Father, and reflect Him to others. Let's reject shame.

  • Hey, Mamas. This One's For You. (Let’s Try This Again)
    Well this was a first for me. I posted the weekly episode and then quickly got really helpful constructive feedback from a dear friend. I realized some of the things I said could have been misinterpreted and I wanted to address them. So I deleted the episode, and asked my friend if she would hop on a call with me. 
    We talk about our personal experiences as moms; specifically a working mom and a stay-at-home mom. Our hope and prayer is that wherever you are at in your mothering journey, you will be encouraged. 
    I also added the original episode at the end of this one. I thought it might be helpful context to what Lauren and I talk about. It was a learning moment for me, and I am thankful for friends who give helpful feedback! We are all learning, friends!

  • A Call To All Parents
    I have been having conversations with other parents lately that led to this podcast. Also, my own observations and lessons in my own parenting journey with my 5 kiddos. In this episode I talk about boundaries, phone rules for kids (I get very passionate about this one), letting our kids fail, and much more. 
    We are raising the next generation. What an amazing privilege. With great privilege comes great responsibility. By the grace of God, we can raise world changers. I believe that.

  • A Prayer For Ukraine & Our World

    I did not want this moment to pass without pausing and using this platform to pray for what is happening in the world right now. Ukraine is being attacked violently. People are fleeing. People are fighting People are dying. People are afraid. 

    Thank you for joining me in prayer. God made a promise to hear the prayers of His people. We can find great comfort in that truth.

  • My "Why" For Going Back To School

    I still can't believe I am getting my Masters Degree. SO many times I said I would never go back to school. But, here I am! (And absolutely loving it!)

    My reasons might surprise you, and most of you may not relate to my school decision.  But I hope you will pause and ask yourself what might be preventing you from saying yes to a challenge or even a dream. 


    Everyone wants fun pens for school, right? So here's mine:

  • Lipstick & Freedom, Say What?!
    What a title, right? I mean, what does lipstick have to do with freedom? Well, let me tell you. I have always loved fashion & makeup-especially lipstick! But I have also felt insecurity when it comes to sharing about how much I love them. Completely out of fear of what people will think ("she's vain, she's shallow")-sounds lame, I know.  But for real, I've cared too much and holy smokes, it's exhausting! 
    Slowly but surely, God is bringing true freedom from fear & people pleasing. This week on Instagram, I shared a bunch of my favorite lipsticks and random style things that I love. It sounds so silly, but it was absolutely freeing to not care what people were thinking. And actually, it was so fun hearing all the comments from other ladies who loved the suggestions. 
    Bottom line, BE YOU. We are each uniquely creative in a million different ways. I am going to keep being me and talking about the things I love....Lipstick and Jesus. Join me!

  • You've Been Lied to. And So Have I.

    I’m unloveable.

    I’m worthless.

    I will always fail.

    I shouldn’t do _____ because I’m afraid.

    I’m too much.

    I’m a screw up.

    I can’t tell anyone.

    I am ashamed.

    I can’t be forgiven.

    I’m not worth it. 

    I should harm myself. 


    Any of this sound familiar? I want to remind you that there is a very real enemy and he is a liar. He wants to destroy your life. Where better to start than your thoughts. But GOD. One of the best phrases ever. Truth changes everything. Exposing the lies, and knowing who God says you are just might change your life.
