In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily explores what it truly means to be wholly sacrificed—completely surrendered to Jesus, not partially devoted or spiritually half-hearted. Using Scripture from Romans 6 and Colossians 3, this episode lays the foundation for a season focused on full devotion to Christ and the impact that devotion has on our marriages.

What does it really mean to be a godly wife? Is it found in roles, routines, or meeting certain expectations—or is it something deeper?

In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, we shift the focus from external definitions of womanhood and marriage to the heart of it all: being wholly devoted to Jesus. Using 1 Peter 3:15 as our foundation, we explore what it looks like to honor Christ as holy in our hearts and allow that devotion to shape every decision, relationship, and priority—especially within our homes.

Whether you work outside the home or stay at home, homeschool or not, love cooking or struggle with it, this episode is a reminder that faithfulness isn’t about checking boxes. It’s about loving the Lord first—and letting that love transform how we live, serve, and love our families.

As we begin a new direction for this season, join us as we pursue a deeper, undivided love for Jesus—and discover how that devotion strengthens our marriages along the way.

This episode of Wifey Wednesdays features Tabitha, also known as Dorcas, who was known for her charitable deeds and clothes making. From her story, we learn how powerful giving can be and how much of an impact is made when we invest in the lives of those around us.

On this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily looks at a familiar story featuring a likely unfamiliar woman. In the book of Esther, we read about a wicked man named Haman whose wife has a very bad suggestion for him.

In Luke 8, the Bible introduces us to a woman who has had a medical condition debilitating her life for more than a decade. Through this woman’s persistence and perseverance, she is able to find Jesus and find healing through her belief in Him. This episode of Wifey Wednesdays focuses on the importance of persevering through hardship and difficulty and darkness. If you are struggling with something, use the example of this woman and reach out to Jesus. If we will keep seeking Him and reaching out to Him then He is able to help us in our time of need and, ultimately, deliver us from all of the bad that this broken world brings.

This episode of Wifey Wednesdays features a pretty infamous wife in the New Testament. Sapphira’s example, along with her husband’s, teaches us a lot of things. This episode focuses particularly on the dangers of having someone’s influence closer to and mean more to you than God’s.

Cycling back to positive powerful examples from Scripture, this episode of Wifey Wednesdays focuses on the humility of the unnamed Canaanite woman (also called the Syrophoenician woman) who came to Jesus seeking healing for her daughter. The humble example of this mother is a lesson we can all learn from as we seek the goodness of our Savior.

This episode of Wifey Wednesdays discusses a woman from the first century city of Thyatira and the power she held over the people in the church there. Using deception, seduction, and flat out lies, this woman was leading people toward sin. This episode looks at the danger of deception and how we can avoid it in our own lives.

This episode of Wifey Wednesdays looks at the example of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Her powerful example of standing at the cross in what must have been pure agony and soul-piercing grief is one that we can learn from as we experience various forms of grief in our own lives.

On this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily looks at the book of Philippians to find our next powerful example: the negative example of disagreement. Not getting along affects more than just those between whom the disagreement takes place, as these two sisters teach us. The Lord’s work is far more important than our own preferences, and chapter 2 of the letter teaches us both the how and why of ridding our hearts of selfishness.
