Your Spiritual Game Plan with Cheri Fletcher

Have a question? Click Here? Who has God called you to share His love with lately? When she was only twenty-three years old, Rachelle Starr started going to strip clubs to share Christ’s love with the dancers. Having founded a Christian ministry to people in the adult entertainment industry, she demonstrates the key to shining Christ’s light into the darkness–love people one at a time and continue...

Have a question? Click Here? When was the last time you felt a strong desire for revenge when you were wronged? Our human nature is to want an ear for an ear and an eye for an eye. God says vengeance belongs to Him because He comes to redeem what has been taken.   As this is Human Trafficking Awareness Month, I can safely say that it both hurts and angers God to see His children hurt each other. I...

Have a question? Click Here? When was a time in your life when God seemed to have vanished? The end of one year and the start of another can leave us wondering where God even is and what will happen next. Some of us make resolutions, hoping for certainty and something to fall back on when everything is spinning out of control. My goal next year is to join forces with Queen Esther in seeing our inv...

Have a question? Click Here? Can you recall the last time you decided not to spend time with God just because you didn't "have enough time ”? It’s so easy to feel the pull to draw closer to God even while feeling like a failure because you can’t do “enough” or figure out a way to deepen your relationship. In this episode I’m chatting with Candice Reyes to get her tips on building a Spiri...

Have a question? Click Here? If you’re one of my regular listeners, you’ve heard me say that “God has a plan”, and “the enemy has a plot against that plan”. This not only applies to our everyday lives, but I believe during the holiday season, the enemy works over time. This is supposed to be the season of joy when we celebrate the gift of Jesus. But — as you know from experience — it can also be f...

Have a question? Click Here? When was the last time you were misunderstood?   How did you correct the misperceptions? Or did you?  Being misunderstood is a problem that we all face.  Women have faced being misunderstood since Adam blamed Eve for taking the fruit in the garden. I know what it is like to be misheard, mischaracterized, and even dismissed by friends, family, and strangers. In this epi...

Melinda Patrick, knows all too well about the...

Have a question? Click Here? How often do you find yourself playing the 'I should have' game in your head? It’s so easy to succumb to the comparison trap encouraged by social media, looking at all the other moms and feeling like  ‘I should’ be doing x, y, z to be better.   That only adds to our anxiety.  When anxiety runs deep, it can be crippling for some people. In this episode, Caris...

Have a question? Click Here? In which relationships do you feel God is encouraging you to build a bridge of forgiveness? To fully experience the wonder of God’s love, we must completely accept God’s plan for forgiving others in our lives.  When we hold on to unforgiveness, even in areas where we might be unaware, we actually imprison ourselves and encourage restlessness in our hearts. My friend, R...

Have a question? Click Here? In your life, what means has God used to free you from the stronghold of the enemy? God is faithful to draw us to Himself and will use many different means to pull us closer.  Sometimes we need a drastic jolt to lift us out of our daily rut and remind us that He is what matters.   From the ghetto of Brooklyn to success in Hollywood to a stunning restoration in Jesus, M...

Have a question? Click Here? According to you, what is the significance of your role in other people's lives? There are many challenges that women face when it comes to feeling significant. Our mundane, day-to-day tasks can easily be dismissed as unimportant, but God cares about all things, no matter how small. In this episode, I discuss with Rachael Adams some of the "small things"...

Have a question? Click Here? What areas in your life do you struggle with feeling like you have to be a good Christian for God to fully love you? It's easy to fall into a trap of legalism, believing you need to do x, y, and z in order to receive God's love.  The list contains many good things, but the requirements make it problematic. During this episode, Barb Roose and I discuss the TRU...

I'd also like to extend a special...

Have a question? Click Here? How do you finish this sentence: “I am…” Maybe what comes to mind first is negative self-talk that others would never use to describe you. This is especially true if you've experienced a traumatic situation or if you’re currently in a season of suffering.  But the beautiful thing about God’s love is that it is all-embracing regardless of our circumstances. His des...

Have a question? Click Here? How would you describe your hue? Probably not a question you’ve pondered before, is it? Discussions of race are often centered around descriptive terms that are not accurate, like “black” and “white”.  In this episode, I sit down with Lucretia Berry to unpack how we can reframe our conversations about race in a way that removes the negative connotations often associate...

Have a question? Click Here? Have you ever wondered, “What is God’s will for my life?” or “What is God calling me to do?” As Christians, we know God has a unique plan for each of our lives.  After all, Ephesians 2:10 tells us, “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works , which God prepared in advance for us to do.” But it isn’t always easy to know what God may be read mo...

Have a question? Click Here? What was one piece of marriage advice you were given that you questioned?   Most of the time, our friends and family have the best intentions with their well wishes and words of wisdom after we tie the knot. But it’s important to carefully consider the suggestions we receive and evaluate how they stack up against scripture before we adopt them in our marriage.    In th...

Have a question? Click Here? What happens when you and your spouse spend a lot of time together?  (Perhaps even *too much *  time ...) The reality is that sometimes, too much time together can start to feel like too much of a good thing. However, in no way does that suggest we don’t love our spouse enough nor point to some significant weakness in our marriage.  Being in each other's presence...

Have a question? Click Here? What is one preconceived notion you had before getting married?    Or, for my single listeners, what kind of assumptions do you currently have about marriage?   Maybe that “you won’t turn out like your parents” or “we will never have serious conflict”...   Marriage can be a profoundly sanctifying experience. Not only does God use it to bless us, but also to read more.....

Have a question? Click Here? How would you say your current relationship with your mother-in-law or daughter-in-law is going?    The mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are notorious for tension and strife. But, this bond can be a special blessing from the Lord.     Today, I talk with MiL/DiL pair Barb Reaoch and Stacy Reaoch about their experience in their respective roles. As I prepare to gain t...

Have a question? Click Here? What’s the most recent new role you’ve added to your life? How did you feel about it — Apprehensive? Excited? Perhaps a little bit of both? Well, I’ll be stepping into my new role as a mother-in-law in just 19 short days!  Although the role is new, it’s one I’ve been eagerly anticipating for the last year! As I prepare for this change, I’ve been reflecting on the path...

Have you ever found yourself wondering, “God, are you with me — REALLY with me?” Maybe it was a season of grief, a time of uncertainty, or during a search for your purpose.  On today’s episode, I got to talk with Lori Mango about her concept of “Tracking God.” She shares how taking purposeful pauses to document the little ways God works in your everyday life can train...

Have a question? Click Here? What is one “God dare” you’ve accepted in your life? My husband and I accepted the dare and moved across the U.S. Walking away from everything familiar (like Abraham) is one of the most difficult God Dares but, ultimately, one of the most rewarding. When we step out of our comfort zone and accept the dare to go where He’s leading, we also get to be read more...  ...

Have a question? Click Here? When was the last time God grabbed your attention in an unexpected way?
