Episodes

585 // Is Trusting God Harder Than Waiting on Him? (Bible Study and Devotional) 19.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a call to carry the light of Christ into every space we step into, no matter the circumstances around us. We’re closing our study of Psalm 37:5–9 with a reminder that when we commit everything to the Lord, trust Him fully, and wait patiently for His timing, He is faithful to help us. From David’s wisdom we’ve seen the danger of anger, the futility of fretting over ev...

584 // Is God Asking You to Wait—or to Spread Your Wings? (Bible Study and Devotional) 18.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a reminder that even in the mystery of God’s ways, His “no’s” and His “not yets” are just as much His provision as His yes. We begin in Proverbs 25:2, where we’re reminded that it is the glory of God to conceal a matter, and we reflect on how His redirection and closed doors often protect us from what we cannot yet see. From there, we continue our study in Psalm 37:5...

583 // What If Waiting on God Was the Key to Your Strength? (Bible Study and Devotional) 17.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a midweek reminder to pause, take inventory, and check in with your soul. As we continue our study in Psalm 37:5–9, we reflect on the promise that God will make our innocence shine like the dawn and our righteousness as bright as the noonday sun. David’s testimony reminds us that even in seasons of delay, detours, and difficulty, God’s promises remain steady—and His...

582 // The Gift of Letting Go: Why Humility Leads to True Life in Christ (Bible Study and Devotional) 16.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a call to commit everything—your plans, your desires, your family, your future—into the hands of the Lord, trusting that He will help you. We’re beginning our study in Psalm 37:5–9, a wisdom psalm written later in David’s life, reminding us that God’s Word can be trusted. As David testifies, when we delight in the Lord, He not only shapes the desires of our heart but...

581 // 6 Ways Vanity Distorts Our Worth and What God Really Sees (Bible Study and Devotional) 15.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a call to step back from the noise of vanity and return our gaze to God’s beauty. We’re reflecting on Psalm 37:5–9 and Psalm 27:4, leaning into the truth that our worth isn’t found in comparison or outward appearances, but in who God created us to be. Together, we’ll walk through Day 6 of Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You by Sharon Hodde Mill...

580 // When Fear Meets God’s Word: How Jeremiah 1 Teaches Us to Trust Him (Bible Study and Devotional) 12.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a steadying reminder to fix our eyes on Jesus in a world full of waves. We finish our study of Jeremiah 1:4–8, remembering that before Jeremiah ever felt ready, God knew him, set him apart, and appointed him—and then commanded, “Do not be afraid… for I am with you and will rescue you.” When fear, anxiety, or the headlines pull us under, we return to the unchanging Wo...

579 // Freedom From Fear and Confidence in God’s Strength (Bible Study and Devotional) 11.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a special Thankful Thursday reminder of how precious life truly is. September 11th shaped my perspective on gratitude, family, and friendships in a way I’ll never forget. It’s a call to pause, to appreciate the gift of each day, and to live with a heart of thankfulness. Together we’ll reflect on Jeremiah 1:7–8, anchoring in the truth that God has chosen and equipped...

578 // Sick of Looking to Yourself for Confidence? Try Fixing Your Gaze on Jesus Instead!  (Bible Study and Devotional) 10.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ It’s midweek check-in time! Today, we’re in Jeremiah 1:4–8, we’re reminded that God formed us, called us, and equipped us long before we ever felt “ready.” Yet, just like Jeremiah, we often find ourselves making excuses, clinging to comfort, or magnifying our flaws instead of trusting His strength. In Day 3 of Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You by Sharon Hodde M...

577 // Free From Idols and Insecurity: Trusting God With Your Identity (Bible Study and Devotional)al) 09.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode reminds us that God’s call on our lives is not dependent on what we think we can or cannot do, but on the One who equips and sends us. In Jeremiah 1:4–8, we see God reassuring Jeremiah—young and unsure—that he was known, set apart, and appointed before he was even formed in the womb. That same truth covers you too, Sis: you are chosen, set in this time and place, and fu...

We introduce our weeks’ scripture study from Jeremiah 1:4–8 and also begin our new devotional, Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You by Sharon Hodde Miller, with a powerful truth: life is not about us—it’s all about Him. If you’ve ever wrestled...

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a reminder that we don’t have to live in the rush of the world or carry the weight of our worries alone. In 1 Peter 5:6–7, Peter calls us to humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand and cast every care on Him—because He truly cares for us. Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to release our anxieties like a fisherman casting a net, trusting that God not only rece...

574 // Cast Your Cares On God: You Don’t Have To Carry It Anymore! (Bible Study and Devotional) 04.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a reminder that we don’t have to carry anxiety, fear, or the weight of the unknown on our own. In 1 Peter 5:6–7, Peter invites us to humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand and to cast every care on Him—because He truly cares for us. Together, we’ll explore what it means to actively release our worries to God instead of claiming them as “ours,” and how community and...

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a heart check-in on what it really means to trust God with open hands instead of clinging tightly to our own outcomes. We’re beginning in 1 Peter 5:6–11, where Peter reminds us to humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand and to cast all our cares on Him—because He cares for us.

You’ll also hear a...

571 // Why God Sometimes Says “Wait”: The "For the Soul" Prayer Journal Testimony (Part 1) 01.09.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is the beginning of a very personal story—the testimony behind the For the Soul prayer journal. We’ll reflect on what it means when God’s most loving answer to our prayers is “wait,” and how His timing is always tied to His heart for us. Looking back over the last five years, I share how the Lord built character, consistency, and trust in my life before bringing this jo...

570 // Why Trying to Be Perfect Will Exhaust You—and How God’s Grace Sets You Free (Bible Study and Devotional) 29.08.2025

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a much-needed reminder that our worth is not in our perfection, but in Christ alone. We’re finishing our study of Galatians 1:6–10, pausing on Paul’s powerful words in verse 10 about living for God’s approval instead of people’s applause. Alongside this, we close out the devotional Identity by North Point Community Church with the beautiful truth from Ephesians 2:8—t...

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a mid-week reminder that wisdom isn’t just what we know—it’s what we live out. We’re continuing our study of Galatians 1:6–10 with a focus on verse 7, where Paul warns that any teaching that shifts our eyes off of Christ and onto works or human effort is not the gospel at all. Together, we’ll reflect on how easily confusion can creep in when we aren’t anchored in God...
