Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode, we’re beginning our study of Matthew 16:24-27, where Jesus calls us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Him. Together, we reflect on what it truly means to surrender comfort and entitlement in order to walk in His footsteps.

We’re also continuing day 2 of our devotional What It Means to Obey God by John Bevere, where we’re reminded that obedience doesn’t always make sense, but it always leads us into God’s wisdom, safety, and perfect timing. If you’ve ever struggled with overthinking, second-guessing, or trying to make sense of what God is asking you to do, this episode will encourage you to trust Him more deeply, obey with urgency, and find peace in the truth that His ways are higher than ours.

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is a reminder that obedience isn’t optional—it’s the path to intimacy with God and the reflection of our trust in Him. We’re beginning a new scripture study in Matthew 16:24-27 and diving into the devotional What It Means to Obey God by John Bevere. Together, we reflect on why obedience is not just a duty but a privilege, and how following God’s Word always leads to blessing—even if those blessings look different than we expect.

If you’ve ever found yourself hesitating when God speaks or treating His Word as optional, this episode will encourage you to act in faith and make His presence the true priority in your life. Let this be your reminder that obedience isn’t about rules—it’s about love in action, and it opens the door to deeper relationship with the Father.

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is a powerful reminder that God’s Word is not just meant to be read—it’s meant to transform us. We continue our study of the Beatitudes in Matthew 5, reflecting on what it means to be pure in heart, a peacemaker, and steadfast in righteousness, even in the face of persecution.

We also dive into Day 9 of The Confident Woman devotional by Joyce Meyer, where we see Job’s example of trusting God as his Vindicator—remaining steadfast no matter what others thought or said. If you’ve ever been misunderstood, misjudged, or felt the need to defend yourself, this episode will encourage you to rest in God’s justice and His perfect timing, knowing that He is for you and will vindicate you.

Today’s episode is your midweek heart check-in—a chance to pause and take inventory of your head, heart, and soul. We’re continuing our journey through the Beatitudes in Matthew 5, leaning into what it means to be comforted in our mourning, to live meekly with a heart of service, and to hunger and thirst for righteousness.

We’re also diving into Day 8 of The Confident Woman devotional by Joyce Meyer, where we’re challenged to trust God completely—His yes, His no, and even His wait—believing that every answer He gives is His kindest possible one. If you’ve been wrestling with fear, dread, or uncertainty, this episode will encourage you to place your confidence fully in Him and lay your prayers at His feet. You’ll leave reminded that God always has the answer—and that His will is laced with love.

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is both a charge and a comfort as we step into this back-to-school season. I’m sharing a personal moment God used to spark a prayer movement—covering every school, student, teacher, and staff member we pass in His protection, peace, and favor. We begin our study of the Beatitudes in Matthew 5, where Jesus teaches a revolutionary way of living that still transforms hearts today. This week, we’ll unpack what it means to embody these “be-attitudes” in our everyday walk.

We also dive into Day 7 of The Confident Woman by Joyce Meyer, reflecting on Deuteronomy 1:29–31 and the subtle ways dread creeps into our thoughts. You’ll be encouraged to replace fear with courage, trust that God is fighting for you, and stand firm in the truth of 2 Timothy 1:7. If you’ve been feeling weighed down by “what ifs” or quiet anxieties, this episode will help you release them into God’s hands and step forward in His peace and power.

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is a reminder that God’s direction is always better than our own—and that walking in step with Him can turn a wilderness season into a far shorter journey.

We’ll also dive into Day 6 of The Confident Woman devotional by Joyce Meyer, where we explore the gift of self-control God has given us. From daily “adulting” tasks to deeper battles with fear and worry, this episode will encourage you to rise above emotions and choose what is right—even when it’s hard. If you’ve been tempted to rush ahead with your own plans instead of asking God for the next step, this is your gentle nudge to trust Him fully and operate in faith, one step at a time.

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode takes us deeper into Matthew 13 as we finish Jesus’ explanation of the Parable of the Sower.

We’ll also explore how the condition of our hearts determines the fruit of His Word, and the invitation God gives us to return to Him with good soil that produces a harvest for His Kingdom.

Plus, we dive into today’s devotional from The Confident Woman, where we’re reminded to “let our balloon go” and express the joy God has already placed in our hearts.

If you’ve been holding back joy or letting fear steal your confidence, this episode will encourage you to release it and live in the peace and trust only God can give.
