Send us Fan Mail Welcome to part 1 of our three part series on PRAYER! Kicking off the series with our brand new Lifeway Girls author, Josephine Rose. This first episode sets the stage of how to reframe our prayer lives into a conversation with God, rather than some religious checklist item. Being in ministry can make prayer feel like another obligation, but let's not forget that it's th...

Send us Fan Mail One of the best parts of finding community among women in youth ministry is the feeling that you're not alone! (and you're not crazy either...) Sometimes the lives we live seem too comical to be real, so why not be in good company, laugh together, and enjoy stories told by other women in ministry.  We might just have the best, craziest, greatest jobs on the planet! Have...

Send us Fan Mail If we are going to be women who prioritize real, authentic relationships, we have to be willing to have honest conversations with those close to us.  In this episode, we’ll talk about who should be in your close circle, how to move beyond surface-level conversations, and what it looks like to truly validate and support friends in tough seasons. Most importantly, we’ll challenge ou...

Send us Fan Mail Every single day we make hundreds of decisions that impact our jobs, families, and ministries. But how do we discern the leading of the Spirit of God when there is no clear answer? Join us as we unpack practical ways to seek wisdom, recognize the Holy Spirit’s guidance, and navigate tough decisions with confidence. Whether you're hiring a new leader, planning an event, or wre...

Send us Fan Mail Every human will encounter the sudden heartache of grief brought on by loss or suffering. Ministry leaders are not immune to grief, but rather, we often have a front row seat to those who are walking through tragedy and deep loss. How do we grieve well? Not just for ourselves but those that we are ministering to. How do we continue to lead well even when the waves of grief keep co...

Send us Fan Mail "Our ministry isn't as big as theirs." "My students trust her more than me." "Why can't I get it right like her?" Comparison can steal so much joy from our calling. And yet there is abundant joy when we can find ways to celebrate the work the Lord is doing in our brothers and sisters and ministries and local churches. Let's be women who...

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever felt like church has somehow become your whole life? As we kick off this new season of HGHG, we are breaking down what the difference is between real life and ministry life (aka you are not what you do!). We talk boundaries and priorities, as well as what happens when you're not taking care of yourself. If you have questions or feedback, reach out to us at girls...

Send us Fan Mail Instead of asking what goals you have for the New Year, we want to ask the question "What holy habits are you setting for this year?" Instead of seeking to accomplish something, we want you to seek and know the presence of God this year. Whether that is studying your Bible more, memorizing Scripture, or another way to deepen your faith, let's begin today to create h...

Send us Fan Mail New year, new you? That's not our goal this year! It's so easy to go into the new year trying to find ways to "fix" things about our bodies, yet what if self-improvement isn't the goal? Rather, faithful obedience and stewardship over what God has given us. Let's spend this year giving thanks to God for the bodies given to us! If you haven't liste...

Send us Fan Mail Christmas week is finally here! Most likely you've spent the month helping your teens embrace God's love and remember the meaning of the season. But don't let this week (or any week) go by without embracing His love for you .  This episode is a little bit different, but we hope this conversation will help encourage you to quiet your soul this week and remember that...

Send us Fan Mail Christmas is next week, but HOW did we get here this fast?! As we all begin to slow down and look forward to the new year, this is such an important time to look back at what God has done and what He has taught you, changed in you, and brought you through. This episode allows us to share with you the lessons we learned in 2024! So let's reflect on God's kindness and fait...

Send us Fan Mail You might notice how many of your girls who were once connected in youth ministry fall off the map after high school. They aren't connected into the local church, and they likely are not connected into women's ministry or discipleship. So what's the disconnect? Where did we go wrong? Or is the expectations on young women to "fit" the current dynamic of wom...

Send us Fan Mail We aren't sure about you, but making friends as an adult might be even harder than it was when we were teens! So what makes a good friend in a season where time is limited and burdens feel heavy? And would you say that you are that friend you're looking for? Spoiler : We have TWO fun announcements at the end of this episode, so make sure to listen to the whole episode so...

Send us Fan Mail What's your title? Minister. Director. Associate. Assistant. Admin. Super Woman/Ministry Queen?! Titles can be a tricky or sensitive topic to discuss. There's a tension of wanting to be validated in a position without sounding discontent or entitled. When we know the title that actually matters, the desires or conversations around titles can become Christ-honoring and fr...

Send us Fan Mail Whether you're already a mom or feel like this isn't a question you'll be asking for awhile, we hope you'll be encouraged hearing how we've wrestled with this question, navigated our calling when we each found out we'd become a mom, and continue to look to God to be our strength and wisdom in each season He leads us in. Also, since we recorded this ep...

Send us Fan Mail If someone hasn't told you this yet, you're going to make a mistake in ministry. Whether it's your students, your boss, parents, or someone else, you'll inevitably disappoint a person and let them down. Even if it's not your intention, you can't be super woman all the time! So how do we redeem the mistakes we make? How do walk in reconciliation and fo...

Send us Fan Mail Kristi McLelland is BACK as we celebrate the release of her new teen girls Bible study, Luke in the Land! We spend time reflecting on being in Israel recording this study September of 2023, and Kristi shares how and why being in the land changed the way she reads Scripture. It's tempting to view historical and biblical context as unnecessary or simply head knowledge, but Kris...

Send us Fan Mail As a leader in ministry, you likely work under a good amount of stress and pressure. And not only are you owning the tasks at hand, but you are carrying a spiritual and emotional weight that is unique to your job. So how do you manage your own anxiety when having to deal with people? How does your reactivity reveal what's going on deep inside of you? What's the differenc...

Send us Fan Mail You made it through the crazy summer. You might have snuck in a vacation or found yourself on a beach for at least for a few days. But fall is here! You're now getting to embrace all of the packed schedules, weekly programs, and lack of rest.
