  • Ep. 297 — Teaching Gratitude Over Selfishness This Thanksgiving

    Ep. 297 — Teaching Gratitude Over Selfishness This Thanksgiving
    Nov 20 2025
    It's Thanksgiving Day—and between the turkey, the pie, and the endless sink of dishes, it's easy for even the most grateful heart to slip into grumbling. But what if this Thanksgiving, instead of focusing on what's missing, we helped our daughters rediscover the beauty of selflessness? In this warm and faith-filled Thanksgiving episode, Rachael Culpepper, Executive Director of American Heritage Girls, and Melissa Bearden unpack how gratitude can transform a selfish heart into a selfless one. Drawing on Proverbs 11:25, they remind us that "whoever refreshes others will be refreshed," and that true thankfulness doesn't stop at words—it's lived out in acts of generosity, humility, and service. You'll also hear from Patti Garibay, AHG Founder and Executive Director Emeritus, in a Raising Godly Girls Minute. This powerful one-minute serves as a reminder that selflessness isn't just good manners—it's a mark of spiritual maturity. Through practical ideas like encouraging your daughter to serve someone quietly or offering gratitude to others at the Thanksgiving table, Rachael and Melissa show how even small acts of service can cultivate joy and reshape a heart toward Christlike giving. As moms, it's tempting to chase perfection during the holidays—but this episode will remind you that the most meaningful memories are made when we slow down, serve, and model the selfless love of Jesus. Whether you're tuning in from the kitchen or the car ride to Grandma's, this Thanksgiving conversation will help you center your heart (and your daughter's!) on what really matters: a spirit of gratitude that overflows into generous love. Three Things to Remember: Selflessness is the antidote to selfishness. A life focused on others brings the refreshment God promises in Proverbs 11:25. Gratitude grows through service. Serving shifts our daughters' eyes from what they lack to how much they have to give. Thanksgiving is more than a holiday. Daily selflessness and intentional gratitude build a rhythm of generosity that honors God year-round. Scripture Referenced in This Episode: Proverbs 11:25 – "A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed." Philippians 2:3–4 – "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves." John 13:14–15 – Jesus' example of humble service in washing His disciples' feet. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 – "Give thanks in all circumstances."

  • Ep. 296 — Raising Girls Who Choose Gratitude—Even When They Don't Feel Like It

    Ep. 296 — Raising Girls Who Choose Gratitude—Even When They Don't Feel Like It
    Nov 18 2025
    The turkey might still be thawing, the pies may or may not be homemade, and your kids might not be feeling especially thankful—but this Thanksgiving, the Raising Godly Girls Podcast invites you to look beyond the checklist and rediscover the heart of gratitude. Join Rachael Culpepper, Executive Director of American Heritage Girls, and Melissa Bearden for a thoughtful and faith-filled conversation about what it means to raise daughters who choose gratitude even when it doesn't come naturally. With honest reflections, Biblical insight, and a few laughs along the way, Rachael and Melissa unpack how gratitude is not just a seasonal feeling—it's a spiritual discipline rooted in nearness to God. Drawing from James 4:8 and Luke 14, they remind moms that gratitude grows when we draw near to the Lord and accept His invitation to the table of thanksgiving. From small car-ride conversations to setting the Thanksgiving table together, you'll learn simple, tangible ways to help your daughter practice gratitude that lasts longer than the leftovers. Plus, hear from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay in a special Raising Godly Girls Minute—a timely reminder to turn expectations into invitations, and holiday stress into holy celebration. Whether you're hosting family or sneaking an extra slice of pie in peace, this episode will encourage you to keep "the first things first" and model what it means to live thankful, even when you don't feel like it. Three Things to Remember: Gratitude is a choice, not a feeling. Choosing thankfulness (even in difficult seasons!) draws your heart closer to God. Extend intentional invitations. Invite your daughter into moments of gratitude through small acts of connection and love. Model resilient thanksgiving. Let your own steady gratitude remind her that joy isn't dependent on circumstances, but on Christ's unchanging goodness. Scripture Referenced in This Episode: James 4:8 – "Come near to God and He will come near to you." Luke 14:15–24 – The Parable of the Great Banquet: God's open invitation to come and celebrate at His table. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 – "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." Psalm 100:4 – "Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise." Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.

  • Ep. 295 — Raising Daughters to Love God, Family, and Freedom with Debbie Kraulidis (Moms for America)

    Ep. 295 — Raising Daughters to Love God, Family, and Freedom with Debbie Kraulidis (Moms for America)
    Nov 15 2025
    In a culture that often questions Biblical truth, diminishes family values, and redefines freedom, parents face a critical calling—to raise daughters who love God wholeheartedly, cherish their families, and honor the freedoms that flow from faith. How do we help our girls hold fast to timeless truth when the world is constantly shifting? In this inspiring episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, host Rachael Culpepper, Executive Director of American Heritage Girls, sits down with Debbie Kraulidis, Vice President of Moms for America and host of the Moms for America Podcast. Together, they explore how faith, family, and freedom work hand in hand to shape girls who live with conviction and courage. Debbie shares how her work empowers mothers across the nation to raise daughters with strong moral compasses—girls who are grounded in Scripture, devoted to their families, and confident in their role as Christ-centered leaders in their homes, communities, and country. Rachael and Debbie discuss the vital role moms play in cultivating resilience, discernment, and love of liberty in their daughters, helping them navigate cultural pressures with grace and truth. This conversation will remind you that freedom isn't merely an American understanding of a political concept—it's a spiritual one. As 2 Corinthians 3:17 declares, "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." Our daughters can walk boldly in that truth, reflecting Christ's light in a world that desperately needs it.
