Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! How do you stand up against the culture with courage while still reaching the people with compassion?  This world is a little…okay, not a little…a lot upside down.  They are so morally confused that they no longer know what is right and what is wrong.  This world is so upside-down. So, how do we stand against the culture with courage...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! There is so much confusion in today’s culture concerning gender identity and same sex attraction.  This week, we are conquering lie #8, our final lie on our Overcoming the Lies of the Enemy series and that is…Acceptance is Love.  Actually, the exact opposite is true. While it may seem like when we affirm people’s choices, even though...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Most of you have probably heard the song “Amazing Grace.” The lyrics start out by saying, “Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I’m found…was blind, but now I see.” It’s a beautiful song, however, I have a problem with these lyrics…and it has to do with the phrase, “That saved a wretc...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! I hear these phrases so often spoken by Christians and especially among Christian teens and young adults…phrases like, “I’m not getting good vibes about this.” Or “Hey, something bad happened, I need you all to send me your positive thoughts and vibes.”  I think so many Christians use these phrases because they are such widely used to...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Lie #4-The World Would Be Better Off Without Me  Oh girl, if you have ever thought this…I just want you to know that you are so valuable! God placed you in this world on purpose.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! A lot of music is catchy. I get it. When I became a Christian, I was 17 years old and up to that point, I listened to some very secular music…like music not good at all and the reason I did wasn’t because I liked what the lyrics said, I like the way that they sounded. Honestly, I didn’t really think I was even paying attention to the...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! This week, we are going to start a series called, “Overcoming the Lies of the Enemy."  John 8:31-32 tell us that it’s the Truth (or God’s Word) that we know that makes us free in every area of our lives.  This culture is yelling at us…the enemy is not keeping silent. He wants us deceived, because he knows if we are deceived, eventuall...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! For many of us, right now, it’s summertime and summertime for a lot of us can be binge watching our favorite tv show, playing video games, going to the pool.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! On this week's Ask Me Anything episode, Kayla asks, "What is my next step for a calling in ministry?"

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Last week on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, Kathy Gibbons shared with us two of the greatest enemies to really good thinking: Emotionalism-people preying on our emotions so they can get us to do or feel the way the want us to.  Relativism-we can all create our own truth.  We can't have one person saying that their truth is that there is a...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! What does it mean to go all in?  It means to be fully committed, to be fully persuaded.  So what does it mean to go all in with God?  It means that we are fully committed and fully persuaded that we are going to live our lives for God.  I remember being a senior in high school and a friend of mine invited me to church and hearing the...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! On this week's Ask Me Anything Episode, Ashley asks, "How can I forgive myself and heal after confessing my sin to God?"

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! This past weekend many of us celebrated Easter or the Resurrection of Jesus.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! In Ephesians 6:11, Paul tells us to put on the whole armor of God so that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.   That word wiles in that verse means mind games or schemes. The enemy is playing mind games with us to pull us away from God to where we feel distant from Him or where we don’t feel like we have a purpose...

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Ladies, I don’t know about you, but I have come against so many distractions this year. At the end of 2022, God was showing me some pretty amazing things that He wanted me to do this year.
