    Delayed Obedience: When Fear Keeps You Stuck

    Have you ever felt God calling you to do something, but fear kept getting in the way?  In this episode of The Shieldmaidens, Lyndsi shares her journey of being called by God to paint for His glory - and the years she spent running from that calling. What started as a clear direction from the Lord became a battle with fear, doubt, insecurity, and delayed obedience.  Delayed obedience is still disobedience. But He can still make it beautiful.  Together, we have an honest conversation about what happens when God asks us to step out in faith, why obedience can feel so difficult, and the consequences of allowing fear to keep us stuck. We also discuss God's grace in the waiting, how He continues to pursue us even when we hesitate, and what it looks like to finally surrender and say "yes" to His plan.  If you've ever struggled to trust God's calling on your life, questioned your abilities, or delayed something you know He's asked you to do, this conversation is for you.  📖 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." – 2 Timothy 1:7  In this episode:  • Lyndsi's calling to create art for God  • Fear, doubt, and insecurity in the Christian walk  • The cost of delayed obedience  • Trusting God when you don't feel qualified  • Stepping out in faith despite fear  • God's grace and redemption in our mistakes  • Encouragement for anyone struggling with their calling  Check out Lyndsi's art here:  https://lyndsi-deer-art-jewelry.myshopify.com/  #TheShieldmaidens #ChristianPodcast #FaithOverFear #DelayedObedience #ChristianWomen #TrustGod #GodsCalling #ChristianEncouragement #ObedienceToGod #WalkByFaith #ChristianTestimony #KingdomPurpose #FaithJourney #BiblicalTruth #ChristianLiving  Check out our website and shop our latest merchandise here:  https://beashieldmaiden.com/  Connect with us on socials:  https://www.facebook.com/theshieldmaidens  https://www.instagram.com/theshieldmaidenspodcast/  Production by Hitchcock Visuals

    Jesus Met Me in a Jail Cell - Samantha's Story

    Samantha never expected to meet Jesus in a jail cell.  After years of hardship, anger, brokenness, and searching for something more, she found herself at one of the lowest points in her life. But it was there, in a place that felt hopeless, that God met her in a powerful and life-changing way.  In this episode of The Shieldmaidens, Samantha shares her raw and honest testimony of how Jesus recently transformed her heart from the inside out. She opens up about her past, the struggles that led her to trouble, and the incredible redemption she has experienced as a brand-new follower of Christ.  This conversation is a reminder that no one is beyond God's reach, no situation is too hopeless for His grace, and a single encounter with Jesus can change everything.  Whether you're struggling with anger, carrying shame from your past, praying for a loved one, or simply need encouragement today, we pray Samantha's story strengthens your faith and points you to the hope found in Christ.  "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." — 2 Corinthians 5:17  #ChristianTestimony #JesusChangedMyLife #FaithStory #TheShieldmaidens #GodsGrace #RedemptionStory #ChristianPodcast #JesusSaves #Testimony #NewLifeInChrist #ChristianWomen #FaithJourney #HopeInJesus #BornAgain #GodCanChangeAnyone  Check out our website and shop our latest merchandise here:  https://beashieldmaiden.com/  Connect with us on socials:  https://www.facebook.com/theshieldmaidens  https://www.instagram.com/theshieldmaidenspodcast/  Production by Hitchcock Visuals

    Jesus Never Asked You To Carry All Of This

    Have you ever felt like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? Anxiety, comparison, worry, fear, unmet expectations - sometimes the burdens we carry become so familiar that we forget we were never meant to bear them alone.  In this episode of The Shieldmaidens, we sit down with author Brenda Phegley to talk about what it truly means to surrender our burdens to Christ. Drawing from her book, Bid Your Burdens Goodbye: An A-to-Z Guide to Letting Go of What Weighs You Down, Brenda shares practical wisdom and biblical encouragement for releasing the things that weigh us down and embracing the true freedom that only God offers.  Together, we discuss:  ✨ Anxiety, worry, and the burdens we often carry in secret  ✨ The trap of comparison and how it steals our peace  ✨ Why surrender can be difficult... even when we know it's what we need  ✨ What Scripture teaches about giving our burdens to Jesus  ✨ The freedom and joy found on the other side of letting go  If you've been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or weighed down by life's pressures, this conversation is a reminder that Jesus never asked you to carry all of this alone.  📖 Guest: Brenda Phegley https://brendaphegley.com/ Grab her book here: https://a.co/d/04dIUPq2   #TheShieldmaidens #ChristianPodcast #FaithJourney #AnxietyAndFaith #TrustGod #ChristianWomen #SurrenderToGod #BiblicalEncouragement #FaithOverFear #ChristianLiving #JesusChrist #SpiritualGrowth #LetGoAndLetGod #HopeInChrist #BrendaPhegley  Check out our website and shop our latest merchandise here:  https://beashieldmaiden.com/  Connect with us on socials:  https://www.facebook.com/theshieldmaidens  https://www.instagram.com/theshieldmaidenspodcast/  Production by Hitchcock Visuals

    “Sunday Is for Jesus, Not Moms” - Let’s Talk About It

    A recent post online claimed churches shouldn’t celebrate Mother’s Day because “Sunday is for Jesus, not moms.” 👀 So… should churches avoid honoring individuals altogether? Can we celebrate people without taking the focus off Christ? And why does this conversation stir up such strong opinions among Christians?  In this episode, we lovingly unpack the tension between being Christ-centered and honoring people well. We talk about Mother’s Day in church, criticism within the Body of Christ, compassion, discernment, and why making people feel seen actually matters more than we may realize.  Our heart in this conversation isn’t division; it’s understanding, grace, and truth. 💛  We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments: How do you think churches should approach honoring its members?  Check out our website and shop our latest merchandise here:  https://beashieldmaiden.com/  Connect with us on socials:  https://www.facebook.com/theshieldmaidens  https://www.instagram.com/theshieldmaidenspodcast/  Production by Hitchcock Visuals

    The Enemy Doesn’t Fight Fair | Darren’s Story of Freedom in Christ

From spiritual warfare and deliverance to discovering his identity as a son of the King, this conversation is raw, honest, and full of hope.  One statement from Darren deeply impacted us: “The enemy is under no obligation to play fair.”  We talk about the reality of spiritual battles, the lies the enemy uses to keep people bound, and the freedom that comes through Jesus. But this episode doesn’t end in darkness... it ends in victory, identity, and the reminder that we are sons and daughters of God.  If you’ve ever struggled with fear, shame, confusion, or feeling spiritually attacked, we pray this conversation encourages you and points you back to the truth of who you are in Christ.   Follow Darren here: https://www.darrenricketts.com/ Check out Darren's book (To Those Who Would Be King) here:  https://a.co/d/0fyAWcMU  #TheShieldmaidens #FreedomInChrist #SpiritualWarfare #ChristianPodcast #Deliverance #IdentityInChrist #JesusChangesEverything #FaithPodcast #ChristianTestimony #kingdomidentity  Check out our website and shop our latest merchandise here:  https://beashieldmaiden.com/  Connect with us on socials:  https://www.facebook.com/theshieldmaidens  https://www.instagram.com/theshieldmaidenspodcast/  Production by Hitchcock Visuals

    Don’t Let Critics Steal Your Calling

    Some words sting longer than we’d like to admit. In this episode of The Shieldmaidens, we’re opening up about the reality of harsh criticism, online hate, and the cruelty that can live in the comment section. We read real comments, share honest reactions, and talk about what it means to keep following Jesus when the opinions of others get loud.  How do you stay rooted in your calling when people misunderstand you, judge you, or try to tear you down? As Christian women, we believe God never called us to be controlled by applause… or criticism. Our mission is bigger than the comment section.  If you’ve ever struggled with people’s opinions, felt discouraged by criticism, or questioned whether you should keep showing up, this conversation is for you.  ✨ In this episode:  Reading some real comments Handling criticism as Christians Guarding your heart online Staying focused on God’s calling Choosing grace instead of bitterness Why your identity can’t come from the internet 💬 We’d love to hear from you: How do you handle criticism while staying faithful to what God has called you to do?  Check out our website and shop our latest merchandise here:  https://beashieldmaiden.com/  Connect with us on socials:  https://www.facebook.com/theshieldmaidens  https://www.instagram.com/theshieldmaidenspodcast/  Production by Hitchcock Visuals
