    Episode #24 What's in Your Cart?

    🛒 WHAT’S IN YOUR CART? No, we’re not just talking about Target. 😂 Sometimes we walk into life carrying things we never intended to pick up—worry, guilt, other people’s opinions, comparison, old regrets, and responsibilities God never asked us to carry. And before we know it, our cart is FULL… and we’re exhausted. But what if it’s time to start asking: Does this belong in my cart?Did God put it there?And if He didn’t… why am I still carrying it? In this week’s episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, we’re talking about the things we’re carrying and how Jesus invites us to exchange those burdens for His peace. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 🎧 Grab your coffee, take a walk, and listen in. You might just discover there are a few things in your cart that need to go back on the shelf. ❤️ What’s one thing you need to take OUT of your cart? #AbundantlyFavored #WhatsInYourCart #FaithAndMindset #ChristianWomen #MidlifeWomen #LetItGo #JesusGivesRest #AbundantlyFavoredPodcast If this episode encouraged you, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who needs permission to stop carrying what was never hers to carry.

    Episode #23 Lower Your Shoulds

    Lower Your Shoulds | Stop Living Under the Weight of "Should" How many times have you told yourself... "I should be further along." "I should have it all together." "I should be doing more." That one little word—should—can fill our hearts with guilt, pressure, and the feeling that we're never enough. In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, we're talking about how to stop living under impossible expectations and start living in God's grace. Together we'll uncover where our "shoulds" come from, why perfection is a moving target, and how God never asked us to earn His love. We'll also share five practical mindset shifts to help you: ✨ Recognize expectations God never gave you ✨ Let go of perfectionism ✨ Extend grace to yourself ✨ Embrace being a work in progress ✨ Believe that, through Christ, you are enough for today Key Scripture: 📖 2 Corinthians 12:9 – "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." If you've been carrying the weight of "should," this conversation is for you. 💛 We'd love to hear from you! What is one "should" you're ready to let go of? Share it in the comments below.

    Episode #22 Martha, Girl... Sit Down

    Martha, Girl... Sit Down Luke 10:41 (NIV) "Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things." Have you ever been so busy taking care of everyone else that you forgot to enjoy the life God gave you? Friend... welcome to the club. In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, we're taking a fresh, funny, and encouraging look at one of the Bible's most relatable women—Martha. If you've ever overthought a text message, stressed over vacation packing, worried about your kids or grandkids, replayed a conversation that never happened, or created a whole story in your head from a social media post... you're going to feel seen (and probably laugh a little, too!). We'll unpack the familiar story of Martha and Mary and discover that Martha wasn't doing anything wrong—she was serving. The real issue wasn't her activity; it was the weight she was carrying. So many of us are exhausted not because we're doing too much, but because we're carrying responsibilities, pressure, and worries that God never asked us to carry. In this conversation, we'll talk about: Why Martha gets an unfair reputation. The difference between being busy and being burdened. How overthinking steals our peace. The imaginary problems we create before they even exist. Why you are not responsible for everyone else's feelings, choices, or happiness. What it looks like to finally sit down—emotionally, spiritually, and mentally—and trust God with what He's already holding. This week's challenge is simple but powerful: Ask yourself, "What am I carrying that God never asked me to carry?" Write down three things and intentionally hand them back to God. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like the weight of the world is resting on your shoulders, this episode is your reminder that you don't have to hold everything together. God never asked you to. If this episode encouraged you, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who needs permission to stop carrying what was never hers to carry.

    Episode #21: When Your Prayers and Your Thoughts Don't Match

    When Your Prayers and Your Thoughts Don't Match Have you ever prayed, "God, Your will be done," while secretly expecting the answer to be no? In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, Jenny and Shelley dive into the disconnect that so many of us experience between what we pray and what we actually believe. We often say we trust God, yet our thoughts are filled with doubt, fear, and lowered expectations. Using Matthew 21:22 and Ephesians 3:20 as the foundation, we're talking about why surrender doesn't mean settling, how past disappointments can quietly shape our faith, and why God may be inviting you to expect more—not because life will be perfect, but because He is a good Father who delights in His children. Together we'll explore: Why many Christians confuse surrender with expecting less. How disappointment can become a filter that limits our faith. The difference between praying safe prayers and praying honest, faith-filled prayers. Why God's plans are often far bigger than anything we could imagine. How to begin praying with greater trust, hope, and expectation. We'll also share personal stories of times when God exceeded our expectations—from books and speaking opportunities to unexpected doors He opened along the way. This week, we invite you to pray two simple prayers: ✨ "God, Your will be done."✨ "Help me stop limiting what You can do." Because trusting God's plan doesn't mean expecting less—it means believing He may have something even better than you've imagined. Scripture: Matthew 21:22 | Ephesians 3:20 ✨ If this episode encouraged you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who could use a reminder that her best chapters may still be ahead.

    Episode #20: God, Blow My Mind!

    Have you ever looked back on your life and realized that some of the best things happened in ways you never could have planned? In this episode of Abundantly Favored Podcast, Jenny and Shelley explore what it means to pray, “God, blow my mind!” and to truly make room for God to move in ways that are bigger than our plans and expectations. Rooted in Ephesians 3:20, this conversation is all about living with open hands and expectant hearts. We share 10 practical and faith-filled ways to make room for more peace, joy, purpose, confidence, and God’s presence in your everyday life. In this episode, we discuss: Letting go of control and trusting God with the outcome Expecting good things even in uncertain seasons Praying bigger prayers and renewing your faith Clearing out limiting stories and replacing them with God’s truth Noticing God’s fingerprints in ordinary moments Taking small steps of obedience toward what He is calling you to do Surrounding yourself with faith builders and celebrating small wins Releasing your timeline and staying open to God’s perfect timing With plenty of sisterly banter, personal stories, and practical encouragement, this episode will inspire you to stop limiting what’s possible and start living with anticipation for what God may do next. This week, join us in praying: “God, blow my mind today. Help me notice You, open my eyes to where You’re working, and use me for Your purpose.” ✨ If this episode encourages you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who could use a reminder that her best chapters may still be ahead.

    Episode #19: From Scarcity to Abundance: What Are You Focusing On?

    Have you ever noticed how two people can walk through the exact same situation, yet one sees possibility while the other only sees problems? In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, we're talking about the powerful difference between a scarcity mindset and an abundance mindset—and why what you focus on shapes so much of your life. If you've ever caught yourself thinking... "There's never enough time." "Everyone else gets the opportunities." "I'm too late." "I don't have what it takes." ...this conversation is for you. Together, we'll explore what Jesus meant when He said He came so we could have life "to the full" (John 10:10) and how we can begin noticing God's provision, opportunities, and blessings that may have been right in front of us all along. We'll also share practical ways to shift your perspective, train your mind to recognize God's goodness, and replace thoughts of lack with hope, purpose, and expectancy. This week's challenge is simple but life-changing: spend seven days intentionally looking for evidence of God's abundance. Because sometimes the biggest miracle isn't that our circumstances change... It's that our perspective does. Join us as we learn to stop focusing on what's missing and start celebrating the God who has already given us so much. ✨ If this episode encourages you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who could use a reminder that her best chapters may still be ahead.

    Ep. #18 Mid-Year Check-In: Who Are You Becoming?

    Before you jump into the second half of the year, it's time for a heart check—not a performance review. In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, Shelley and Jenny invite you to pause, reflect, and celebrate the growth God has been doing in your life. Instead of focusing on what you haven't accomplished, discover why God cares more about who you're becoming than what you're achieving. Together, we'll talk about: How to recognize the progress you may have overlooked. Why your thoughts and words reveal your growth. Celebrating answered prayers, new habits, and quiet victories. Letting go of perfection and embracing God's faithfulness. Becoming the woman God created you to be—one faithful step at a time. Whether this year has been full of victories, unexpected detours, or a little of both, this conversation will encourage you to look back with gratitude and move forward with hope. Key Scripture: Philippians 3:13–14 (NIV) Join us for a refreshing mid-year reset that will remind you to give yourself grace, celebrate how far you've come, and keep pressing toward the incredible future God has for you. ✨ If this episode encourages you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who could use a reminder that her best chapters may still be ahead.

    Ep. #17 Before the Fireworks: Celebrate How Far You've Come

    As we celebrate America's 250th birthday and gather for parades, family traditions, and fireworks, we're taking a moment to pause and reflect on something we often overlook—how far God has brought us. In this episode of the Abundantly Favored Podcast, sisters Jenny and Shelley share favorite Fourth of July memories from growing up in small-town Iowa and explore a powerful question: When was the last time you celebrated what God has already done in your life? So many of us spend our days focused on the next goal, the next challenge, or the next thing that needs fixing. We rarely stop to acknowledge the growth, strength, wisdom, and faith God has developed in us along the way. Together, we'll discuss: ✨ Why it's important to celebrate your progress, not just your goals ✨ What freedom looks like in this season of life ✨ How fear, comparison, guilt, and limiting beliefs can keep us stuck ✨ The connection between awareness, gratitude, and true freedom ✨ The legacy you're building through your faith, relationships, and daily choices ✨ The "Fireworks Five" challenge that will help you notice God's goodness and faithfulness Using Galatians 5:1 as our guide, we'll talk about the freedom Christ offers and how gratitude can transform what we notice, what we believe, and who we're becoming. Whether you're navigating a new season, reflecting on lessons learned, or simply looking for encouragement, this episode will remind you that God has been faithful every step of the way—and He's not finished with your story. Before the fireworks light up the sky, take a moment to celebrate something else: The prayers God has answered.The battles you've survived.The growth you've experienced.The freedom you've found.And the abundant life God is still inviting you to live. 📖 Scripture: Galatians 5:1 Please SUBSCRIBE, share, and join us for more faith, mindset, and encouragement.
