Feeling small, weak, or unsteady? In this episode, Angie and Susie dive into Ephesians 6:10 and explore what it really means to “be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power.”

We talk about how God's strength is like a life-giving infusion—targeted, timely, and exactly what you need. You’ll be encouraged to stop striving and start relying on the One who empowers you from within. Let’s shift our perspective and step into the strength that’s already ours in Christ.

Ephesians 6:10 (NIV)
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

Have you ever felt like you could just coast for a little while in your faith—take your foot off the gas and assume everything will be fine? That’s exactly what the enemy wants.

1 Peter 5:8 warns us to stay spiritually vigilant. Because when we stop paying attention, we’re at the most risk.

Angie and Katie kick off a brand-new series designed to equip you to fight the lies of the enemy with the truth of God’s Word. The enemy may be on the prowl, but God has already given us everything we need to stand strong.

1 Peter 5:8 (NIV)
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

What does it really mean to follow Jesus?

In a world that tells us to chase our dreams and follow our hearts, the call to trust and obey can feel countercultural—even restrictive. But what if surrendering to Him is the key to true freedom and purpose?

Join Angie and Katie as they dive into Luke 5:11, unpacking the power of Jesus’ invitation to follow Him. Together, we’ll explore how letting go of our own plans and embracing His way leads to lasting fulfillment—far beyond what we could achieve on our own.

Luke 5:11 (NIV)
So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

Justice isn’t about payback—it’s about redemption.

Romans 12:19 reminds us to leave vengeance to God, but that’s easier said than done. When we’re wronged, the desire for immediate justice can be overwhelming. Yet, God’s discipline is rooted in mercy, shaping us for our good.

In this podcast, Angie and Susie explore how surrendering control and trusting His process can transform our pain into purpose. Join us as we dive into what it truly means to let go and let God work.

Romans 12:19 (NIV)
Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.

Faith isn’t just believing—it’s staying connected to Jesus. Hebrews 11:6 reminds us that without faith, it’s impossible to please God, but what does that mean for our daily lives?

In this podcast, Susie and Angie explore how faith fuels our relationship with Christ, helps us hear His voice, and strengthens our walk with Him. Join us as we dive into practical ways to keep our focus on the main thing—our connection with Jesus.

Hebrews 11:6 (NIV)
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”

Does surrendering to God feel like losing control?

Angie and Susie dive into James 4:7 to challenge the idea that submission is a sign of weakness. In reality, true strength comes not from gripping tighter—but from letting go. Join them as they uncover how surrendering to God empowers us to stand firm, resist the enemy, and walk boldly in the freedom of His authority.

James 4:7 (NIV)
“Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”

Hebrews 13:16 (NIV)
