Grace Over Grind

I had a completely different episode planned, but when I sat down to publish it, I couldn’t. In this honest episode of Grace Over Grind, I share why I felt like a fraud teaching something I haven’t fully walked through yet, how the Holy Spirit has been convicting my heart, and why sometimes God asks us to slow down before we speak.

In this episode, we take an honest and careful look at some of the most common objections raised in Pentecostal salvation discussions. What about speaking in tongues as evidence? What about “repent and be baptized” language? What about verses that seem to connect salvation to specific outward acts? Instead of reacting emotionally, we slow down and walk through Scripture in context. We examine the...

In this episode, we take a deeper look at why the Epistles, not the book of Acts, are where salvation doctrine is clearly defined and explained. Acts shows us the historical unfolding of the early church, but the letters written to believers are where the apostles slow down and teach, clarify, and establish what salvation truly means. When we confuse descriptive moments in Acts with prescriptive d...

In this episode, we take a closer look at the book of Acts and why it must be read in its proper biblical context. Acts records a unique, transitional period in redemptive history, when God was moving His people from the Old Covenant into the New. We’ll talk about why descriptive moments in Acts (like tongues, signs, and specific experiences) are not automatically prescriptive for salvation doctri...

This episode is not an attack on Pentecostals. This is simply where I come from and where many of my friends and family still are. In this episode, we walk through Acts 2:38 in its full biblical context to answer one question: Does salvation come through a formula, or through faith in Jesus Christ? We talk about how belief saves, and how repentance, baptism, and obedience naturally follow genuine...

Few phrases have been more misunderstood, or misused, than Jesus’ words, “Go and sin no more.” Too often, they’ve been weaponized to shame, control, or place impossible expectations on people who are already hurting. In this episode, we slow down and look closely at what Jesus actually meant when He spoke those words, and just as importantly, what He didn’t mean. We explore the context of grace, m...

Sometimes God closes a door before our heart has caught up with His plan. In this episode, we talk honestly about grief, obedience, surrender, and the quiet wrestling that happens when God says “no” or “not anymore”... even when we’re still holding on. This conversation explores how God’s grace meets us in the letting go, and how closed doors can become sacred turning points rather than punishment...

Religious trauma is real!! And it often hides behind words like obedience, holiness, and submission. In this episode of Grace Over Grind, Bailee gently but boldly addresses the wounds many believers carry from fear-based teaching, spiritual manipulation, public shaming, and performance-driven faith. This episode is not about tearing down the Church, it’s about separating Jesus from the harm done i...

This episode started as a testimony… and turned into so much more. Cassi Hart joined me for what we thought would be a simple conversation, but the Holy Spirit took over. What unfolded was a night filled with faith, fellowship, laughter, Scripture, and deep discussion. Before we knew it, we had moved from testimony into a full Bible study—and two hours later, it was dark outside, the camera had di...

So many of us inherited beliefs, expectations, and religious patterns we never chose, but still feel bound by. In this episode, we talk about how grace brings true freedom from generational religion, performance-based faith, and family systems rooted in fear, control, or works. This conversation isn’t about dishonoring where you came from. It’s about recognizing what no longer aligns with the fini...

In this deeply personal and faith-filled episode of Grace Over Grind, Bailee sits down with Dr. Shelbi Bolton to share a testimony that so many women silently carry — the journey of infertility. This conversation goes beyond medical diagnoses and timelines and into the sacred, often painful space of waiting on God when the answer doesn’t come quickly. Shelbi opens up about the emotional weight, sp...

In this episode of Grace Over Grind, Bailee addresses one of the most debated questions in Christianity: Can you lose your salvation? This conversation is intentionally rooted in the foundation of the podcast, grace versus works. Rather than covering every theological perspective or scripture related to salvation, this episode focuses specifically on whether salvation can be lost because of failur...

In Episode 3, Bailee dives into one of the most misunderstood topics in the church: the purpose of the Old Testament Law and why Christians are not required to keep it for salvation, righteousness, or God’s approval. Using clear Scripture and a grace-filled perspective, she explains how the Law exposes sin but cannot save, transform, or make anyone righteous. If you’ve ever felt confused about com...

In this episode, Bailee breaks down one of the most misunderstood topics in the church: WORKS. What does the Bible mean by “works”? Which works are dead, religious, or self-righteous? Which works naturally flow from grace and actually please God? This episode removes pressure, exposes legalism, and clarifies how works fit into the life of a believer saved by grace.

In Episode 2, Bailee breaks down one of the most misunderstood words in Christianity: Grace. Not the watered-down church phrase, not the guilt-covered version religion sometimes hands out—but the real, biblical, life-altering grace that sets people free. Using Scripture, personal reflection, and simple language, she explains what grace is, what grace is NOT, and why mixing grace with works destroy...

In this first episode of Grace Over Grind, Bailee shares her personal journey from rule-based religion to the liberating truth of biblical grace. Raised in the United Pentecostal Church, she spent years believing her salvation depended on effort, performance, and meeting religious expectations. Everything shifted in one ordinary moment in the kitchen—when grace “hit like a train” and changed her l...
