    55. Stop Agreeing With What It Looks Like

    What do you do when parts of your life feel dry, hopeless, delayed, or beyond repair? In this episode, the girls dive into Ezekiel 37 and the powerful vision of the valley of dry bones. Through honest conversation, laughter, personal stories, and biblical truth, they unpack what it means to stop agreeing with what looks dead and start declaring the Word of God over the dry places in your life. From dormant dreams and struggling marriages to fear, hopelessness, and the power of speaking life out loud, this conversation is a reminder that God specializes in resurrection. Sometimes what feels dead is actually just waiting for the breath of God. The girls also discuss the difference between biblical declaration and modern manifestation culture, why your voice matters, the importance of praying out loud over your family, and how the Word of God awakens dormant places in our hearts. If you’ve been feeling discouraged, spiritually dry, or ready to give up on something God once placed in your heart, this episode will breathe fresh faith back into your spirit. Table Talk Take these questions into your own week. Maybe journal through them. Even better, invite a couple of friends over and open the Word together. First, read Ezekiel 37:1–14. Where in your life have you quietly stopped believing something could come back to life?What is one truth from Scripture you need to start declaring over a dry place this week?What if the season you've been calling dead is actually dormant — and God is waiting for you to open your mouth and speak?

    54. When Encounter Leads to Assignment

    What happens after you encounter Jesus? In this episode, the women of Refresh dive into Matthew 28 and unpack the powerful moment when the angel tells Mary Magdalene and the other Mary: “Come and see… go and tell.” This conversation explores the connection between personal encounter and Kingdom assignment, and why so many believers stop at the encounter but never step into the calling God placed on their lives. Through honest conversation, biblical insight, and personal testimony, the girls unpack fear, identity, discipleship, multiplication, and the beauty of bringing your “loaves and fish” to Jesus and watching Him multiply what feels small. This episode is a reminder that you do not need to feel fully qualified, fully prepared, or fully confident to be used by God. He simply asks you to come close, encounter Him personally, and then go share what He’s done in your life. Key Topics: Matthew 28 and the resurrection storyMary Magdalene’s transformation and redemptionWhy fear keeps us from our assignmentWhat it means to “come and see, go and tell”Multiplication in the Kingdom of GodDiscipleship and spiritual courageWhy your testimony matters, even if it feels ordinary If you’ve ever felt disqualified, stuck, afraid, or unsure if God could really use you, this episode is for you. Table Talk Questions to ask in your own kitchen this week. Before we close, we want to leave you with some Table Talk. Take these questions into your own week. Maybe journal through them. Even better, invite a couple of friends over and open the Word together. First, read Matthew 28:6-7 What is one thing God has done in your life that someone else needs to hear about?What’s keeping you from sharing it — fear, timing, not feeling qualified?What would it look like this week to stop waiting and just go tell someone?

    53. Striving Won't Get You What's Already Yours

    What if the exhaustion you feel isn’t coming from your schedule… but from striving for something God already gave you? In this episode, we sit down in Romans 8:12–17 and unpack the difference between living from fear versus living from love. We talk about the “orphan spirit,” self-sabotage, performance-based Christianity, striving for approval, and what it really means to live as fully accepted sons and daughters of God. From kitchen sinks and car lines to business ownership, motherhood, suffering, and identity, this conversation gets honest about the subtle ways fear shapes our decisions and how the love of God invites us into peace, freedom, intimacy, and rest. If you’ve been feeling stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, or like you constantly have to prove yourself, this episode is a reminder that you are already fully accepted in Christ. Table Talk Take these questions into your own week. Maybe journal through them. Even better, invite a couple of friends over and open the Word together. First, read Romans 8:12–17. Where in your life are you still striving instead of resting in who God says you are?What would change this week if you actually believed you belonged — fully and without question?Is there a lie you've been carrying about your identity that God is asking you to let go of?

    52. The Battle You Didn't Know You Were Losing

    Anxiety has become so normal in our culture that many of us don’t even question it anymore. But what if it was never meant to be your baseline? In this episode, we open an honest, deeply personal conversation around Philippians 4:6–7 and what it really means to “be anxious for nothing.” From the weight we carry that was never ours to hold, to the quiet thoughts that shape our daily lives, we unpack how anxiety isn’t just emotional, it’s spiritual. This conversation is an invitation to pause, realign, and bring your thoughts back. Because peace isn’t something you earn—it’s something you receive when you bring everything to God. Before you move on from this episode, don’t just listen, lean in. Take this into your own kitchen this week. Sit with it. Journal through it. Or invite a couple of friends over and open the Word together. Table Talk:Read 2 Corinthians 10:3–5.What recurring thought keeps showing up that contradicts what God says about you or your life?What would it look like this week to catch that thought and hold it up against Scripture instead of agreeing with it?Is there a stronghold—a pattern of thinking—that God is asking you to let Him pull down?

    51. He Didn't Give You the Whole Plan on Purpose: Faith That Moves You Forward

    Most of us want clarity before we commit. We want the plan, the confirmation, the guarantee that it will all work out. But what if that’s not how God works? In this episode, we unpack Abraham's faith in Hebrews 11 and what it really means to obey God before we fully understand. From stepping into the unknown to living in a promise that doesn’t yet look like what God said, this conversation challenges the way we think about faith, control, and obedience. We wrestle with the tension of being in the “right place” while still waiting on fulfillment, and what it looks like to live with an eternal perspective in the middle of everyday life. If you’ve been waiting for clarity before saying yes, this episode is your invitation to take the next step anyway. Table Talk: Questions to ask in your own kitchen this week. Before we close, we want to leave you with some Table Talk. Take these questions into your own week. Maybe journal through them. Even better, invite a couple of friends over and open the Word together. First, read Hebrews 11:8-10 Where in your life are you waiting for the full plan before you move — and what would it look like to obey anyway?Is there a place where you're in the right land, but it still doesn't look like the promise? How are you holding that tension?What would it look like this week to live like someone who's building for eternity — not just for right now?

    50. Busy Is Not a Badge of Honor: The Truth About High-Capacity Women and Faith

    We live in a world that praises being busy. Full schedules, full calendars, full plates. But what if all that “doing” is actually pulling us away from what matters most? In this episode, we dive into the story of Mary and Martha in Luke 10:38–42 and unpack what it really means to live with a Martha hand and a Mary heart. This conversation is not about choosing one over the other, it’s about learning how to serve, lead, and show up in your life without striving. We talk about the tension of being high-capacity women, the pressure to say yes to everything, and how distraction, overwhelm, and even resentment can creep in when we lose sight of His presence. This is a powerful reminder that Jesus never asked Martha to stop serving, He asked her to stop striving. If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, pulled in every direction, or wondering if you’re missing something deeper in your walk with God… this episode will meet you right where you are. Table Talk Take these questions into your week. Journal through them… or even better, invite a couple of friends over and open the Word together. First, read Luke 10:38–42. If Jesus looked at your schedule this week, would He say you chose the better thing?Where is busyness distracting you from what God is actually asking for your attention?What is one thing you could remove this week to make room for the one thing that matters most?

    49. When Small Is Actually Significant: Rethinking How the Kingdom of God Really Grows

    What if the most powerful work God is doing in your life isn’t loud, visible, or impressive—but small, hidden, and unfolding slowly over time? In this first episode of the new season, we gather around scripture in a more intimate and intentional way, starting with Matthew 13:31–33—the parables of the mustard seed and the yeast. Together, we wrestle with what it really means to live on mission in our everyday lives, not just in the big moments, but in the quiet, unseen ones. This conversation is a reminder that the Kingdom of God doesn’t grow through performance or visibility, but through obedience, surrender, and faithfulness in the ordinary. Whether you’re in a season that feels hidden, mundane, or even insignificant, this episode will encourage you to see it differently. Because maybe the seed is growing. Maybe the dough is rising. And maybe God is doing more than you can see. This season, we’re inviting you into Table Talk: a simple but meaningful way to open the Word and create space for honest, faith-filled conversation right where you are. Maybe that looks like journaling through these on your own. Or maybe it looks like inviting a couple of friends over, gathering around your table, and leaning into what God might want to reveal. Start by reading Matthew 13:31–33, then reflect on these questions: • Where have you believed the lie that your life is too small to matter in the Kingdom of God? • What is one act of everyday obedience you’ve been dismissing as insignificant? • What would change if you truly believed that the most eternal thing you could do this week is simply obey God in the ordinary?

    48. Made Uniquely, Called Collectively

    In the final episode of Season 5, the Refresh Team gathers around the Waco table for one last time this season.

Tell us: What was your favorite episode? What do you want next season to cover? Who should join the table? Leave us a comment or DM — we’d love to hear your heart. ✨ Doers Challenge: This week, we want you to take one step to invest in the collective calling God has placed in you.
