JOIN THE WELL

Have you ever been praying faithfully and yet still feel anxious, unsettled, or emotionally exhausted?

In this episode, Rebekah explores a gentle but important truth: sometimes prayer alone doesn’t produce peace, not because prayer is ineffective, but because how we’re praying (and what we’re asking prayer to do) matters.

This conversation invites you to move beyond anxious, outcome-focused prayers and into a deeper, more grounded way of trusting God.

• Why praying for specific outcomes can sometimes increase anxiety instead of peace
• How Jesus models honest prayer and surrender in the Garden
• What Scripture teaches about trust as the foundation of peace
• The connection between obedience, repentance, and inner rest
• Why ignoring your body’s limits can keep your nervous system stuck in survival mode
• How faith, formation, and physiology work together

Key Scriptures:

• Isaiah 26:3

• Romans 15:13

• Psalm 34:14

• Isaiah 48:22

• Psalm 23

This episode is for the woman who:

• Is praying but still feels restless

• Wants peace without bypassing truth

• Is ready to trust God more deeply...not just ask Him to fix things

If you’re longing for a place to practice this kind of honest, embodied faith in community, The Well is open to you. It’s a space for women who want to grow in trust, obedience, emotional health, and spiritual depth — together.

In this episode, Rebekah kicks off the Peace series by exploring why so many Christians live without peace of mind, even while claiming to trust God. She unpacks the quiet but heavy belief that we have to figure life out on our own and how that functional self-reliance fuels anxiety, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion. Drawing from Scripture, Rebekah reframes what it actually means to “trust God,” showing that peace isn’t found in having clarity or control, but in engaging God in the very moment we feel afraid, uncertain, or overwhelmed.

This episode also redefines the idea of “trusting yourself” through a biblical lens. Rather than trusting our instincts or emotions, Rebekah invites listeners to trust that God is with them, that they can seek Him honestly, hear His voice, and obey, while resting in the promise that God redeems, redirects, and carries what we cannot. This conversation sets the foundation for a series centered on surrender, prayer, and learning to live from a place of true, practiced peace.

We live in a world overflowing with wisdom, tools, podcasts, Bible studies, and advice, and yet many women feel more anxious, fragmented, and exhausted than ever.

In this episode, Rebekah explores a concept she calls mental gluttony: overconsumption based in the belief that if we just gain enough clarity, understanding, or insight, we will finally feel at peace. While growth and learning are good gifts, unlimited consumption without limits often leads to confusion, guilt, and restlessness rather than freedom.

Using a simple but powerful budgeting analogy, Rebekah invites listeners to consider how wise boundaries, not endless information, are often what form peace in our lives. Just as financial limits create freedom, emotional and mental limits can restore clarity, trust, and spaciousness for God to work.

This episode gently challenges the assumption that peace comes from figuring everything out and offers a different path: formation through restraint, repetition, and trust.

As we look ahead to 2026, Rebekah shares how The Well is designed not as an all-you-can-consume resource, but as a steady, intentional rhythm—a place to return, drink deeply, and live what you already know.

If you’re tired of chasing clarity and ready for a quieter, steadier way forward, this episode is for you. ---> JOIN THE WELL

In this episode of the Belonging Series, we flip the script: instead of waiting for others to make us feel included, we discover how to carry belonging with us. Drawing from Scripture, everyday practices, and even timeless wisdom from How to Win Friends and Influence People, we’ll explore both the simple tools that create connection and the deeper steps that nurture true, trusted relationships. We’ll also tackle one of the biggest barriers to belonging, the “they should call me” mindset, and reframe it with the freedom of agency in Christ. This episode will equip you to stop waiting for belonging and start creating it, wherever you go.

Have you ever felt like you can never truly relax in relationship, that you have to keep performing, pleasing, or proving yourself to be worthy of love? You might be carrying the hidden wounds of conditional love. Whether it came from childhood, religious legalism, or performance-based approval, conditional love gives us a false view of, well, love. It breeds defensiveness, self-hatred, fear of vulnerability, and ultimately keeps us from the deep connections we long for.

In this episode, we’ll explore the emotional, relational, and spiritual cost of growing up with “love that had strings attached,” and why it becomes such a barrier to belonging in adulthood. We’ll look at how Scripture reveals the freedom of God’s unconditional love, unpack the ways our nervous system responds to early rejection, and outline practical steps for breaking free from the performance trap so we can live from a place of security, not fear.

If you’ve ever longed for a community where you can be fully known and fully loved, this conversation will help you start healing the barriers that have been holding you back.

We all long to be known, loved, and accepted but sometimes, without even realizing it, we’re the ones putting up walls. In this episode, I'll unpack the subtle and not-so-subtle barriers that keep us from true belonging. From internal struggles like caring too much about what others think, to modern challenges like social media’s fake connections, to the deep issue of not knowing ourselves well enough to share our real story. These obstacles matter.

You’ll discover:

• The internal barriers that quietly sabotage connection.

• The modern cultural forces that make real belonging harder than ever.

• Why self-knowledge is a prerequisite to being known by others.

• Practical ways to start dismantling these walls so you can create the connection you crave.

If you’ve ever felt like you were standing in a crowded room yet still completely unknown, this episode will help you see what’s in the way—and what you can do about it.

If we're honest, we've all had times (or years) that we've felt cut off, invisible, or like no one really knows us.

In this first episode of the Belonging series, Rebekah shares a personal journal entry about her recent move and the quiet ache of feeling unknown in a new place. That ache, she’s realizing, is something many of us carry whether we’re the new girl at school, the tired mom feeling out of sync with her friends, or the long-time churchgoer who still wonders if anyone sees her.

This firs episode in our new series explores:

• The universal longing to be seen, known, and connected

• The difference between situational and spiritual disconnection

• Why so many people feel lonely even in crowded rooms

• And the beginning of a bigger question: What really creates belonging?

Whether you’re in a new season or have felt this way your whole life, this conversation will help you name the ache and begin to move beyond it. Let's journey together...

In this episode, Rebekah shares a vulnerable and honest story of how her second season of deconstruction led her to reject God’s authority and embrace what felt like total freedom. But that “freedom” turned out to be a wall—one built from pride, fear, and self-rule. Listen as she unpacks how God gently tore down those walls and led her back to true, life-giving freedom.
