    Offense, Overwhelm & the Vine: How Surrender Sets You Free

    If surrender isn’t giving up… then what is it? In this episode of the Scripture Girl Podcast, I’m digging into the connection between surrender, offense, and our thought-life—and how staying plugged in to God as our source is the only real path to freedom. I’ll tell a funny (and very real) story about a Sunday morning moment with my husband that turned into a mental spiral—and how God used it to show me the traps we fall into when we let offense take over. It’s not always about what someone else says or does. Most of the time, it starts in our own minds—with the wrong story, the wrong loop, and the wrong source. We’ll talk about what surrender actually means (spoiler: it’s not resignation), how offense thrives when we’re disconnected from the Vine, and how to spot that early warning bell in your own life. 💡 If you’re tired of carrying everything alone, if you find yourself stuck in frustration, or if you’ve been waiting on people to give you what only God can—this is for you. Also in this episode: 📖 Healed to Heal is officially available in print, ebook, and audiobook! 🎙️ A new podcast is on the way—Healed to Heal—dropping soon! 🙌 And no, Scripture Girl is not going anywhere. God is still speaking. And He’s still offering you rest. So take a deep breath… and let the Holy Spirit write the better story. 🔗 Podcast Coaching & Inspiration If you’ve ever felt called to share your voice through podcasting, check out Rory Paquette —host of Wake Up the Lions and The Podcaster Nation .

  2. The Lie That Blocks Your Healing

    The Lie That Blocks Your Healing

    In this episode, I’m sharing a powerful truth about one lie—just one—that can keep us from walking in what Jesus already paid for. We’re talking about a lie that sounds spiritual, even noble: “Maybe God is using this sickness to teach me something.” But is that actually what the Bible says? We’ll explore the critical difference between suffering for the sake of the Gospel (which Scripture tells us to expect) and suffering under sickness, which is part of the curse—not the cross. When we confuse those two, we stop resisting what Jesus already redeemed us from. I also tell the incredible true story of Mary Givens—John Osteen’s sister—who was completely healed and set free after years of torment, all because one lie was replaced with truth. You do not want to miss this. 🔥 This episode gives a sneak peek into one of the foundational principles from my upcoming book on divine healing, Healed to Heal. If you’ve ever struggled with what to believe about sickness, suffering, and the will of God, this will bring clarity—and faith.

    Healed to Heal: The Story, The Spark, and What Comes Next

    After a season of silence on the airwaves, Kathleen Johnson—your Scripture Girl—is back. But not empty-handed. In this deeply personal and power-packed episode, Kathleen shares where she’s been, what God’s been stirring, and how a life-altering encounter with divine healing turned into the boldest writing project of her life so far. You’ll hear the origin story of two transformative book projects—Healed to Heal and Touching Jesus—and how a journey that began in chronic pain became a global calling to stir faith, spark healing, and equip others to walk in the fullness of God’s promises. But this episode isn’t just an update. It’s a firestarter. Kathleen unpacks why Healed to Heal isn’t just a book—it’s a movement. One rooted in real, true stories of people who were radically healed… and then released to carry that same healing to the world around them. You’ll get a glimpse of what Kathleen calls “the healing thread”—a divine pattern that weaves through history, showing how one person’s yes can become someone else’s miracle. She shares the remarkable story of Ethan Otis Allen—a quiet pioneer in the faith-healing movement—whose obedience to God sparked a supernatural ripple effect that shaped lives across generations. From the dramatic healing of Sarah Ann Freeman Mix to the birth of Carrie Judd Montgomery’s world-changing ministry, this story is living proof that God still moves through ordinary people who dare to believe. And most importantly? You’ll be reminded that your healing isn’t the end of your story—it’s the beginning of someone else’s. Whether you’re contending for your own breakthrough, walking with someone who needs one, or simply hungry to see God move again—this episode will reignite your hope. Because Jesus still heals. The Word still works. And your miracle? It’s not only possible—it’s already been paid for. Come hungry. Leave ignited. This is just the beginning.

    What does it take to truly walk in the calling God has placed on your life? Today on the Scripture Girl Podcast, I sit down with my dear friend and mentor Rick Duvall—a preacher, teacher, singer-songwriter, and life coach—who shares his powerful testimony of transformation. Rick takes us back to his days as a southern rock musician, lost in the party lifestyle, and how a radical encounter with Jesus changed everything. We talk about the struggles of letting go of past identities, the power of a praying mother, and how God speaks to us through spirit, word, and community. In this episode, we dive into: • How God calls us individually—whether we grow up in a Christian home or come from a Damascus road experience. • The moment that changed everything for Rick—and why he knew he was called to preach. • Why true freedom isn’t about doing what you want, but living in God’s purpose. • The power of mentorship, encouragement, and walking with a faith community. • Why God wants to get out of you what He put in you—and how to fully embrace your gifts and calling.

  7. Change Your Focus, Change Your Life: The Biblical Secret to Peace

    Change Your Focus, Change Your Life: The Biblical Secret to Peace

    What if I told you that your focus is shaping your reality? That what you set your mind on is either leading you toward faith and peace or dragging you into fear and frustration? In today’s episode, we dive into one of the most powerful biblical truths about the mindset shift that changes everything: What you focus on grows. We explore God’s original design for the mind, backed by both science and Scripture. You’ll learn about the Reticular Activating System (RAS)—a part of your brain that filters information based on what you repeatedly think about. This explains why, after buying a new car, you suddenly start seeing that model everywhere. But here’s the key: Your RAS doesn’t judge whether something is good or bad—it just reinforces what you tell it to focus on. This has huge implications for your faith. If you constantly dwell on fear, doubt, and negativity, your mind will filter reality through a lens of anxiety and limitation. But if you train your mind to focus on God’s promises, His faithfulness, and His Word, your entire perspective—and experience—will shift toward victory. We break this down using biblical examples, including the twelve spies in Numbers 13. All twelve saw the same land, the same giants, and the same opportunities—but their focus determined their fate. While ten focused on the obstacles and declared defeat, Joshua and Caleb focused on God’s promises and walked in victory. You’ll also discover: Why Romans 8:6 tells us that "To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace." How Jesus used focus to call people into their God-given destiny, seeing them not as they were, but as they could be. The danger of mental loops—how dwelling on the wrong things can program your brain to expect disappointment, fear, or struggle. A powerful step-by-step process to flip your focus from fear to faith. And we’re not stopping at theory—I walk you through practical ways to retrain your focus using God’s Word, visualization, and faith-filled declarations. You’ll leave this episode equipped to take authority over your thoughts, align your mind with heaven’s perspective, and experience the peace and power that God has promised you. It’s time to take back control of your focus and step into the abundant life God has for you. Join me, Kathleen Johnson, on this breakthrough episode of the Scripture Girl Podcast—because your focus isn’t just a small thing, it’s shaping your entire future. 🎧 Listen now and start transforming your mindset today!

  8. Break the Mental Replay Cycle: Master the 90-Second Rule

    Break the Mental Replay Cycle: Master the 90-Second Rule

    Hey friends! In this episode of The Scripture Girl Podcast, we’re diving into one of the biggest traps we all face: the mental replay cycle. You know the one—replaying arguments, stewing over someone’s hurtful words, or spiraling into “what if” scenarios. It’s exhausting and leaves us feeling anxious and stuck. But here’s the good news: it doesn’t have to be this way! Today, I’m sharing an incredible tool that changed the game for me—the 90-Second Rule, based on the work of neuroscientist Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor. Dr. Taylor’s story is powerful. After a massive stroke silenced the left side of her brain, she experienced profound peace living solely in her right brain—the creative, intuitive side. This led to her discovery of the 90-Second Rule, which reveals that our initial emotional responses only last 90 seconds. If we’re still upset after that, it’s because we’re choosing to replay the thought that triggered the emotion. In this episode, we explore: How to stop feeding the mental replay loop. The neuroscience of emotions and the power of neuroplasticity. Biblical principles for taking every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5) and choosing peace (Philippians 4:8). Practical ways to pivot your focus and replace negativity with God’s truth. This tool has been a lifeline for me during some of my darkest times, and I know it can help you too. Let me know how it works for you—share your thoughts in the comments or message me directly! You’ll find a link to Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor’s book, My Stroke of Insight, in the episode notes, along with a meditation exercise I created to help you release those replayed thoughts and embrace God’s peace. Let’s keep walking this journey together—one thought at a time.

    The Power of Words: Transform Your Mind and Life

    In this episode of The Scripture Girl Podcast, Kathleen dives deep into the life-changing power of words. Drawing from both scripture and science, she reveals how the words we speak influence not only our spiritual lives but also how our brains are wired. Kathleen explains the biblical foundation for speaking life and explores the concept of neuroplasticity—how words can literally rewire our brains for breakthrough and transformation. Through relatable stories, practical tips, and faith-based affirmations, you’ll learn how to break free from negative self-talk and replace harmful lies with God’s truth. She challenges listeners to embrace the renewing of the mind by becoming more aware of their words, identifying destructive patterns, and speaking life over themselves and their loved ones. This episode equips you with powerful spiritual tools to transform your thoughts and, ultimately, your life.
