The Bible says that prayer is powerful. I've found it to not just be powerful, but a gift. Let's talk about why. Scripture used: James 5:13-18 Hebrews 4:14-16 Matthew 6:33 (and a bunch of other verses on the fly....see if you can figure out where the verses are in the Bible and highlight them!!) say hi here: email: thechristiangirlstea@gmail.com Substack: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Christian Girl's Tea...

A good reminder walking into a new year is that God is faithful. This past year, I've thought a lot about God's faithfulness. The following episode is a very down-to-earth (so much so I very obviously have a cold) and a heart-to-heart discussion about God's faithfulness, and what that means for us as daughters of God! Follow along in your Bible with me: (I used the ESV translation this...

Hey, sister! I left you a message. Hope it encourages you and reminds you that you're loved, you were made on purpose, and God's approval of you is far more important than the approval of others. (I recorded it like a voicemail--if you want to, hold your phone up to your ear like you're listening to a phone call...from me to you. <3)

Let's move from prayer as our last resort to our first response! Join me as we discuss making your own prayer journal (hence the "DIY"), the purpose behind having a prayer journal, and how I've been trying to use my prayer journal to work with my crazy, distracted brain. Praying this blesses you and helps you grow your relationship with Jesus! Scripture used: Hebrews 4:14-16 Ephe...

One of the best gifts that the Lord gave me through starting The Christian Girl's Tea Podcast was a friendship with the incredible Shira Rodriguez. She's simply an amazing human, and an even better friend, and I love her so much. BUT that's not all she is! She is now *drumroll please* a PUBLISHED author, with her short story "The Lost History of Lavender Lockbourne" being fea...

I'm bring back that lil' "thoughts on..." series from last season to talk about one of my new favorite subjects: THE OLD TESTAMENT!! For so long, I convinced myself it was boring or not applicable to my life--SISTER, I WAS SO WRONG. The Old Testament constantly points to God's true character and to who Jesus is, which is exactly the reason we should be reading the Bible in th...
