    #52: DoorDash Can’t Deliver Your Worship

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ Miriam only gets two verses in Exodus 15, but one tiny detail hits like a thunderclap - it's up to you to tune in and find out what that is!  We walk through the backstory of Israel’s escape from Egypt, then slow down to notice what Miriam’s “packed praise” reveals about faith, gratitude, and spiritual readiness. I get honest about how easy it is to let circumstances feel bigger than God. This is practical Bible teaching you can actually live.  In this episode, I’m sharing a simple way to create your own “trusty tambourine” and place it somewhere visible as a cue to worship while you wait. Write words like faith, hope, joy, and peace on it, add ribbon if you want, and use it as a tool to shift the energy in your home when things get chaotic. Links are below for all the supplies and one of my favorite worship songs on this side of Heaven!

    #51: What If the Waiting is Where God Does His Best Work?

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ Four hundred-ish years is a long time to hear nothing and still believe God is at work. That silent gap between Malachi and Matthew isn’t just a Bible fact, it’s a mirror for anyone who has prayed, waited, and wondered if heaven is quiet on purpose. We step back into the Old Testament timeline and follow the story from Israel’s rescue to the chaotic cycle of Judges, where people wander, life breaks, and God keeps rescuing anyway. Then we talk kings: why Israel demanded one, why Saul looked right but led wrong, and the moment God flips our values on their head with 1 Samuel 16:7.  From David and the Davidic Covenant to the kingdom’s division and exile, we sit in the tension of promises that feel delayed. The prophets keep calling God’s people back, reminding them to wait, to hold on, and to trust that another King is coming. Finally, we turn the page to Matthew 1:1 and feel the mic drop connection: Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham. The story was never lost, and neither are you. If you’re in a season of Christian waiting, spiritual uncertainty, or parenting overwhelm, press play and let this reshape how you read your life.

    #50: God Of The Rescue

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ You ever wish God would just crack open the future for five seconds so you could peek in? I do too, and that longing is exactly why the Old Testament hits differently when you’re parenting, marriaging, and trying to be steady while life feels uncertain.  We start with the big story of Scripture, creation, the fall, and the promise God makes to Abraham, then follow that promise through generations of imperfect people. We watch a pattern emerge: God never stops working, even when the middle chapters look like chaos. Then we bring it into everyday motherhood. That’s where the God of the rescue becomes more than a Bible concept, He becomes our anchor. We end at the Red Sea, where fear is real, options are gone, and God makes a way, reminding us that faith isn’t knowing how the story ends, it’s knowing who’s writing it.  If this encouraged you, subscribe so you don’t miss what’s next, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more moms can find the show.

    #49: A Roadmap Through the Old Testament – Part 1

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ The Bible can feel like a stack of ancient stories, but what if it’s actually speaking into your life today? We start with one sentence that changes everything: Hebrews 4:12 says God’s Word is “alive and active.” Not stagnant. Not trapped in the past. Capable of cutting through our anxiety, our excuses, and our carefully managed outsides to get honest about what’s happening in our hearts and homes. Then we step into the Old Testament with a simple roadmap that makes the big story easier to follow. If you’re craving practical Bible teaching, deeper Christian faith, and a clearer way to read the Old Testament without getting lost, press play.

    #48: What If Scripture Could Rewire Your Life

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ A perfect Bible can be a silent Bible - and that’s the problem. We want pristine pages, but what we actually need is a Bible that looks like real life: bent corners, underlined promises, margin notes, and dates next to the verses God used to carry us through the hardest season. In this episode we simplify what the Bible is and how to read it without feeling overwhelmed. Think of Scripture as a library of 66 books written across centuries, filled with different genres like history, poetry, wisdom, prophecy, letters, and biography. Once you stop reading everything the same way, confusion starts to lift. Then we zoom out to the big narrative that ties it all together. When you can see the storyline, the Bible stops feeling random and starts feeling like one cohesive invitation you can actually step into. This talk is grounded in scripture and we ditch perfectionism and streak-based goals for a simple challenge that works in real schedules. Let Scripture start showing up in your home, your parenting, your work, your worries, and your decisions.

    #47: A Summer Reset For Overwhelmed Moms

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ Summer has a way of turning even the most grounded mom into a full-time juggler: louder houses, more meals, less structure, and that quiet pressure to “make all the memories.” This episode shares a strength reset you can actually use when the days start to feel bonkers and you’re tempted to believe you have to hold everything together.  We anchor in Philippians 4:12-13 and talk about what that famous verse really means. It’s not a pep talk about doing it all by yourself. It’s a promise that Jesus gives strength for what you’re called to walk through. We connect daily strength to daily bread, and offer a prayer for when anxiety creeps in. If you’re craving Christian encouragement, strength in motherhood, and faith-based tools for calmer summer routines, press play.

    #46: Learn the Ultimate Gratitude Hack for Your Life

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ Summer has a way of turning the volume up, on schedules, on stress, on old habits we thought we’d outgrown. So, I’m opening Psalm 107 and reading it slowly, because it’s one of the clearest pictures I know of real life with God: we wander, we end up hungry or stuck, we hit storms that take us to the end of ourselves, and then we cry out and He delivers. The line that keeps repeating becomes the heartbeat of the whole message: “Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.”  We unpack what that kind of gratitude actually is. It’s not pretending everything is fine or forcing yourself to “look on the bright side.” Gratitude is remembering what God has done and locking into His mercy when your circumstances are still imperfect.... then we get very practical because I want you to have tools, not just inspiration. I share a journaling practice that’s carried me through hard seasons.

    #45: How To Spot False Teaching And Stay Anchored

    Send me a text – I always love hearing from you! ✨ The loud world is not neutral, and the most confident voice in your feed is not automatically the voice of God. We're getting ready for summer by talking about something that can sound intense at first, but ends up being deeply freeing: false teachings and how to spot them. We start in 1 John 4 with a clear command to test the spirits, because not every message that sounds spiritual carries the Spirit of Truth. From there, we walk through practical ways to discern what you’re taking in from social media, podcasts, music, and even your own emotions. Then we land on the center: Jesus is the test of truth. What someone believes about Jesus reveals what’s behind the message, and Scripture keeps us anchored when culture keeps shifting. I also unpack common “worldly” scripts that sound comforting but can quietly pull us away from holiness, repentance, and real freedom. If you want stronger biblical discernment, a clearer sense of God’s voice, and simple daily habits that build spiritual maturity, press play.
