    Is there beauty in reaping what you sow?

    2 Corinthians 9:6 says: "Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously."  But are you actually doing that? In this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast we’re talking about the beauty of sowing generously, abundantly and with joy. Oh, what a difference in makes in our world to remember the truth of 2: Corinthians 9:6. As we discuss this topic with bold truth, Biblical principles and a bit of humor, I pray you will take this message to heart and apply it. I pray that if your eyes aren’t opened and your soul is not following closely to the Word of God, that it will change. I pray that maybe each of us would open our eyes a little bit more as we also open our hearts to figure out how to sow a bit more generously of the good and Godly things we’ve been blessed with.

    Where was God when you needed Him?

    Have you ever heard anyone ask, “Where was God when I needed Him?” or maybe, “Why didn’t God show up when I asked Him to?” Sometimes we even accuse God of not helping us, all because He didn’t help us in the exact way we asked Him to. Been there, had that argument with myself, and that disappointment in God. But what I learned was that God didn’t disappoint me. He was there when I thought He wasn’t. Sometimes we have to get some distance from the pain, the problem, the situation in order to see clearly that He always, always has a plan and a purpose. In this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast we’re discussing some of the amazing ways that God shows up in the very middle of our situations, and acknowledging that His plan is always better than ours.

    What kind of a Christian are you?

    Someone recently asked me, “What kind of a Christian are you?” Before I could ask exactly what that meant, he said, “You're kind, you're nice, and you seem caring, compassionate, and not judgmental. But is that real? Or are you faking it? I mean, like, are you a Christian in name only and act like a Christian is supposed to act in public when everyone is looking, then act the opposite behind someone's back?”  The question saddens me, and yet I understood it. Looking around at the world today, filled with hypocrisy, complainers, not-so-joyful givers, and people who fill a pew on Sunday out of obligation, I could understand his question. I knew there had to be more to it than that, so I prayed and was careful with my response. That’s what the latest episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast is about...answering the question, “What kind of a Christian are you?” To tune in to this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast, go to >>> https://womaninspired.org/podcasts For more encouragement, Biblical insight, testimony, humor, and inspiration, tune in to The Woman Inspired Podcast!

    Don't leave out an ingredient

    Have you ever baked a cake, made a casserole, or followed a recipe but left a step out or perhaps left out an ingredient?  How did that turn out for you? It happens. Been there, ruined that banana bread!  Sometimes we run ahead, rush to get something made, and jump headlong into what we hope is the good stuff – the cake and frosting. But then the cake falls, and the frosting isn’t sweet enough. All because we left a few steps and an ingredient or two out. In this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast, we’re talking about making sure we don’t leave an ingredient out when it comes to our walk with God, Bible study, and wisdom.

    When the unexpected causes a detour

    Tragedy, trauma, even unexpected blessings can cause a sudden shift in your well-thought-out plan. Most of us, at the very least, have an idea of what our today, tomorrow, and many tomorrows might look like. What happens when the unexpected forces us to take a detour? The American Bible Society says, “The Bible provides comfort and clarity when the things we love feel like they’re slipping through our fingers. Inevitably, God will call us to let go of the past and follow his lead into new seasons of life, and that’s not an easy task.” Don’t we know it! Right? In one way or another, most of us know what a sudden detour looks like. But how we handle it, avoid it, escape from it or embrace it, makes all the difference in the world. In this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast we’re talking about unexpected detours in life. Are we determined to let them derail us? Or just cause us to pause for a time, until the smoke clears and we see where God is calling us next?

    There should be a helmet law

    I sincerely think there should be a helmet law! Specifically, a helmet of salvation law. That would be great in my opinion, and yet I know that God gives us free will. We can armor ourselves up, or we can choose not to. 1 Thessalonians 5:8 encourages believers to put on "the hope of salvation as a helmet." This hope acts as a protective barrier, keeping our minds focused on God's promises and on the truth. Let’s face it between movies, social media, videos, podcasts, and even some sermons, we are assaulted with arrows of deception. We need to armor up. In this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast, we’re grabbing a sword, slapping on a helmet and talking about lies that come after us in small whispers, slithering toward us, and trying to separate us from our faith, and how we can protect ourselves from them.

    Freedom and Free Will

    From the time I was little, at home and in school, I was taught to respect our country, be thankful for freedom, honor the flag, and proudly sing “God Bless the USA”. I still do that today. In this episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast we talk about the importance of having internal freedom to follow the Lord’s call, and the responsibilities that come with that as well as the blessings and responsibilities that come from living in the USA. I hope you’ll tune as we talk about Freedom and Free Will. 1 Peter 2:16 says, “Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.”  That's my hope and prayer for all of us today. I pray we will choose to live as God calls us to live, and not as an ally of evil.

    The culture of family fallout

    Family fallout is defined as estrangement from family members. Some of it is justified, some of it is not. But we shouldn’t be surprised or shocked by it, even if we’re hurt by it. In today’s episode of The Woman Inspired Podcast, we’re talking about the cultural epidemic of family fallout; why it’s happening, when it was predicted, and what, if anything, you can do about it or if you should even attempt to do anything about it.  With Biblical insights, experience, truth, and a tad bit of humor, this episode will resonate with just about everyone.
