    From Believer to Disciple: Living in True Freedom John 8:21-32 Bible Study [S4 E33]

    Hey Sis 💛  Have you ever wondered what Jesus truly meant when He said, “The truth will set you free”? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we continue through John 8:21–32 and listen closely to one of Jesus’ final teachings in this moment. The people around Him were longing for political rescue. They wanted freedom from Rome. But Jesus offered something deeper and eternal. He offered freedom from sin. In this episode, we explore what it means to truly believe in Jesus, what it looks like to hold to His teaching, and how obedience transforms us from casual believers into real disciples. ✨ A Circle Time–style biblical affirmation from John 8:21–32 📖 Scripture study on freedom, unbelief, and the “I AM” declaration 🕊 A devotional reflection called Be Set Free 📓 A heart-level journal prompt on obedience and repentance 🙏 A closing prayer for lasting spiritual freedom Sis, freedom is not just hearing truth. It is walking in it. Grab your Bible. Grab your journal.

    Do You Really Know Jesus? Light of the World | John 8:12-20 Bible Study [S4 E32]

    Hey Sis 💛  Have you ever felt like someone thought they knew you… but they didn’t really know you? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we sit in John 8:12–20 where Jesus boldly declares, “I am the Light of the world.” The Pharisees knew the Law. They studied Scripture. They were educated and respected. Yet they completely missed the Son of God standing right in front of them. This episode invites us to slow down and examine the difference between heavenly wisdom and being book smart. Because faith in this generation does not require more information. It requires more trust. ✨ In this episode, we explore ✨ A Circle Time style biblical affirmation rooted in John 8:12–20 📖 Scripture study on Jesus as the Light of the World 🕊 A devotional reflection on information overload versus intimacy with Christ 📓 A heart level journal prompt about trust and surrender 🙏 A closing prayer for open hearts and deeper relationship Sis, you can know Scripture and still miss Jesus. But when you follow Him, you will never walk in darkness. Grab your Bible. Grab your journal.

    When You Feel Accused: How Jesus Responds to Shame | John 8:1–11 [S4 E31]

    Hey Sis 💛  Have you ever felt the heavy weight of accusation? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we step into John 8:1–11, where a woman caught in sin is thrown at the feet of Jesus. The religious leaders want a trap. The crowd wants a spectacle. But Jesus brings something entirely different. He brings mercy. When shame meets grace, everything changes. In this episode of Circle Time for the Soul, we slow down and look closely at how Jesus responds when you feel exposed, misunderstood, or attacked. Because the way He handled that moment then is still the way He handles us now. ✨ In This Episode ✨ A Circle Time style biblical affirmation rooted in John 8:1–11 📖 Scripture study on accusation, legalism, and the heart of Christ 🕊 A devotional reflection called The Gift of Grace 📓 A journal prompt for when you feel attacked or misunderstood 🙏 A closing prayer for transformation and mercy Sis, Jesus does not excuse sin. But He also does not weaponize it. He stands in the gap. And then He lovingly says, “Go and sin no more.” Grab your Bible. Grab your journal.

    How to Read the Bible Consistently (Even If You Keep Starting Over) [S4 E30]

    Hey Sis 💛  If you’ve been saying, “I really want to read my Bible more…” but you keep starting and stopping… this is your holy pause. In today’s episode of Circle Time for the Soul, we’re slowing down to talk about how to stay consistent in the Word of God in a way that actually sticks. Because if Jesus is the Word made flesh, then consistency in Scripture is consistency in knowing Him. Sometimes we do not need more motivation. We need rhythm. In this episode, we walk through: ✨ Why identity drives consistency ✨ How to make Bible reading a non negotiable ✨ Choosing a translation you actually understand ✨ Using devotional structure wisely ✨ Why journaling changes everything ✨ What to do when you fall off and need to restart Sis, consistency is not perfection. It is returning. If you are ready to become a woman who runs to the Word first instead of worry, this episode is your starting place.

    Living Water in a Divided World | John 7:25–52 Bible Study [S4 E29]

    Hey Sis 💛  Have you ever noticed how easy it is to follow the crowd without even realizing it? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we slow down in John 7:25–52, where division rises around Jesus. Some believed. Some doubted. Some argued. Some even chose violence. And right in the middle of it all, Jesus stands and declares that anyone who is thirsty can come to Him and drink. The crowd has always been divided. The voices have always been loud. But what anchors us is not public opinion. It is Jesus. In this episode, we explore: ✨ A Circle Time–style biblical affirmation from John 7:37–52 📖 Scripture study on division, discernment, and spiritual thirst 🧭 A devotional reflection called Who Is Your North Star? 📓 A heart-level journal prompt to examine who is shaping your perspective 🙏 A closing prayer to re-center your heart on truth Sis, being informed is not the problem. Being informed without Jesus as your loudest voice is. Grab your Bible. Grab your journal.

    Trusting God’s Timing When the Crowd Is Loud | Bible Study John 7:25-36 [S4 E28]

    Hey Sis 💛 Have you ever been told “God’s timing is perfect” but struggled to believe it in the middle of your situation? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we continue our walk through John 7:25–36 and take a closer look at what it means to trust God’s timing when the crowd is loud, opinions are everywhere, and pressure is real. Jesus teaches boldly in this passage, even as people question His authority, misunderstand His purpose, and try to silence His message. Yet Scripture reminds us that no one could touch Him because His time had not yet come. This episode invites you to slow down, reflect, and lean into God’s timing rather than rushing ahead or wrestling for control. In this episode, we explore ✨ A Circle Time style biblical affirmation rooted in John 7:10–24 📖 Scripture study on discernment, crowd influence, and divine authority 🕊 A devotional reflection on trusting God’s timing in waiting and movement 📓 A heart level journal prompt for your current season 🙏 A closing prayer for patience, peace, and trust in the Lord Sis, you cannot rush or stop what God has already ordained. His timing is purposeful, protective, and always working for your good. Grab your Bible and your journal. Let’s do this together.

    Called to Speak God’s Truth, Not Seek Approval | John 7:10-24 Bible Study [S4 E27]

    Hey Sis 💛 Have you ever felt dismissed, doubted, or underestimated because of what people think they know about your background or experience? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we step into John 7 and witness Jesus teaching boldly, even as His authority and ability are questioned by those watching Him closely. Jesus makes something clear in this passage. His teaching was not His own. It came from the Father. And in the same way, the message we carry as believers is not about personal recognition or approval. It is about obedience to God’s will. In this episode, we explore ✨ A Circle Time style biblical affirmation from John 7:10–24 📖 Scripture study on Jesus teaching in God’s timing, not public opinion 🕊 A devotional reflection on living as vessels, not owners, of the message 📓 A heart level journal prompt to help you see your current season with fresh eyes 🙏 A closing prayer inviting God to work through your everyday life Sis, the place God has you right now is not accidental.

    Trusting God’s Timing When Others Pressure You | John 7:1-9 Bible Study

    Hey Sis 💛 Have you ever felt pressure to move faster, prove yourself, or follow advice that sounds wise but doesn’t sit right in your spirit? In today’s Bible Study with Me, we open John 7:1–9 and walk through a powerful moment where even Jesus’ own brothers tried to push Him ahead of God’s timing. Instead of giving in to pressure, Jesus stayed submitted to the Father’s plan and shows us what wisdom truly looks like. This episode is an invitation to release the pressure to perform, stop rushing God’s process, and find peace in obedience even when others don’t understand. In this episode, you’ll experience ✨ A Circle Time style biblical affirmation rooted in John 7 📖 Scripture study on Jesus and His brothers 🕊 A devotional on God’s timing versus worldly pressure 📓 A heart level journal prompt to help you discern obedience 🙏 A closing prayer for peace, clarity, and trust in God’s plan Sis, you don’t have to rush to be seen.
