    You Will Never Go Down The Drain

    Sometimes God uses a sermon. Sometimes He uses a Scripture you’ve read a hundred times. And apparently, sometimes He uses Mister Rogers. A random song on Mae Mae’s playlist turned into a reminder Joyce didn’t know she needed: there is a song for every fear. That little song about being too big to go down the bathtub drain led straight to the Psalms—and to the realization that David was writing songs for scared people long before Mister Rogers ever did. The Psalms don’t pretend the valley isn’t real. They don’t skip the questions, the fear, the overwhelm or even the moments when God seems quiet. They remind us who is walking through it with us. Maybe peace doesn’t always come because the scary thing disappears. Maybe sometimes it comes because we remember who our Shepherd is. Whatever feels too big today, you are not walking through it alone. And no, friend. You are not going down the drain.

    I'll Take Door Number Two, Bob

    We love asking God to rescue us. We’re just not always crazy about the route He chooses. What if deliverance looks like walking between two walls of water? What if rescue takes you straight through the furnace? What if the answer to “Help me” is a road you never would have chosen for yourself? In this episode, Joyce, Judy, and Amie talk about trusting God when His rescue doesn’t look—or feel—anything like the one we had in mind. Joyce admits she’d like to keep one hand on the steering wheel and she and Judy take us through some of Scripture’s most terrifying rescues. Amie reminds us that sometimes God hands us a shovel when we ask Him to move a mountain. And the conversation gets deeply personal when Joyce shares how God met her in one of the darkest moments of her life. Maybe faith isn’t trusting the route. Maybe it’s trusting the Rescuer. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED Exodus 14 Daniel 3 Matthew 26:36–46 Romans 12:2 Revelation 12:11 Philippians 2:12 CHAPTERS 00:00 — Trusting God With the Process 04:30 — The Red Sea: When Rescue Is Terrifying 08:00 — The Furnace and the Fourth Man 13:00 — “Help Me…But” 17:00 — When Rescue Gets Personal 23:00 — What Is God Teaching in the Process? 30:00 — Handed a Shovel 34:00 — You Have to Trust the Rescuer JOIN THE CONVERSATION Have you ever asked God for help and discovered His answer looked nothing like what you expected?

    Pigs & Pearls

    Episode 09 | Pigs & Pearls Sometimes the problem isn’t that you don’t know what to do. It's that you’re trying to do all of it. Joyce, Judy, and Amie started this episode with Matthew 7 and absolutely no idea where the conversation was headed. Ask. Seek. Knock. But before Jesus said those words, He talked about judging others, getting the plank out of your own eye, not throwing your pearls before swine—and something women everywhere could probably stand to hear again: Do not worry. Before long, the girls are talking about planks and specks, worry and boundaries, Mary and Martha, serving versus sitting still, and the pressure women put on themselves to be everything for everybody. And somewhere in the middle, one little word changes the conversation: Wait. Maybe the answer isn’t to try harder, serve everybody, fix everything, or worry yourself into a solution. Maybe it’s learning where to give your pearls—and trusting God with the pigs. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED • Matthew 7:1–8 • Matthew 6:25–34 • Romans 12:2 • Revelation 12:11 • Psalm 27:14 • Philippians 2:12 • Luke 10:38–42 CHAPTERS 00:00 Ice Cream Hangovers & a Blank Slate 04:00 Ask.

Maybe you’re trying to fix everybody, carrying responsibilities that aren’t yours, worrying about tomorrow, or comparing the way you serve God with somebody else. What would change if you asked, sought, knocked—and then trusted Him enough to wait? Tell the girls what stood out to you, and share this episode with a girlfriend who may need permission to put down somebody else’s plank.

    Shut The Hell Up

    Episode 08 | Shut The Hell Up Get the Podcast Companion Not every thought deserves your full attention. This week, Joyce, Judy, and Amie are talking about the things we tell ourselves—the thoughts that feel so real, the lies we’ve repeated so many times they start sounding like truth, and what it actually means to renew your mind. The conversation gets personal as the girls talk about depression, faith, identity, negative self-talk, the pressure to “just pray harder,” and learning to name what you’re feeling without letting that feeling tell you who you are. You don’t have to pretend the hard thing isn’t real. But you also don’t have to hand it the microphone. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED • Romans 12:2 • 2 Corinthians 10:5 • 2 Corinthians 5:17 CHAPTERS 00:00 Not Every Thought Deserves Your Attention 03:00 Trade What Is Real for the Truth 06:00 Shut The Hell Up 09:00 When “Just Pray Harder” Doesn’t Help 13:00 Renewing Your Mind 17:00 Odd Girl Self-Talk 21:00 On Purpose for a Purpose 24:00 Stop Giving the Enemy Ammunition 28:00 How Do We Actually Believe the Truth? 32:00 Pouring Truth Over Reality 36:00 We’re Still in Process 40:00 Name the Feeling. Challenge the Thought. 43:00 Take Every Thought Captive JOIN THE CONVERSATION What feels real in your life right now that needs to be challenged by what is true? Name it. Then ask yourself the question that started this whole conversation: What else might be true? Tell the girls in the comments—and share this episode with a girlfriend who might need a little help telling that voice in her head where to go.  MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Odd Girl Thinking Devotional The Blessing — John Trent & Gary Smalley My Father’s Daughter — Tanya Glanzman Life Coaching with Amie Amie is a Christian life coach, and much of the practical work in this conversation—identifying thoughts, challenging them, and replacing them with truth—is part of the kind of work she walks through with women one-on-one.

    Can You Say Horticulturalist?

    Episode 07 | Can You Say Horticulturalist? You can get the study guide for this episode: Podcast Companion The fruit was never for the tree. That was pretty much all Joyce, Judy, and Amie had when they hit record. No outline. No carefully planned talking points. Just one thought about a fruit tree—and before long, they were talking about pruning, grafting, roots, relationships, resilience, and purpose. What if nature has been telling us something about the nature of God all along? Apparently, there’s a whole lot of Gospel happening in the garden. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED  • Romans 12:2 • Matthew 7:16 • Romans 1:20 • John 15:2 CHAPTERS  00:00 No Plan. Just Hit Record. 03:00 The Fruit Isn’t for the Tree 07:00 Who Is Your Fruit For? 10:30 Can You Say Horticulturalist? 13:00 Pruning, Maturity & Better Fruit 17:00 Grafting: Stronger Together 21:00 Roots, Hard Ground & Hanging On 25:00 You’ll Know Them by Their Fruit 29:00 Different Trees Need Different Things 33:00 Trusting the Master Gardener JOIN THE CONVERSATION  Where have you seen the Gospel in the garden? Maybe God is growing something in you, pruning something away, deepening your roots, or using fruit from your story to nourish someone else. Tell the girls what this conversation stirred up in you—and share the episode with a girlfriend who might need the reminder that even the pruning has a purpose. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE  Life Coaching with Amie If you need help working through your own season of pruning, growing, or figuring out where God may be leading you, Amie offers one-on-one Christian life coaching.

    If I Had My Way

    Episode 06 | If I Had My Way If you had your way, would you skip the hard stuff—even if it meant missing the good that came from it? Joyce, Judy, and Amie look back at the parts of their stories they might have gladly erased in the moment and ask a harder question: What would be missing now if they had? What if some of the very things we would have written out of our stories are the things God has used to transform us, deepen us, connect us to others, and teach us to trust Him with whatever comes next? Maybe the question isn’t whether we would have chosen the hard. Maybe it’s whether, in the middle of it, we can trust that God really is who He says He is. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED • Romans 8:28 • Romans 12:2 • Proverbs 19:21 • 2 Corinthians 12:9 CHAPTERS 00:00 If You Had Your Way 03:00 Back to the Future & Changing the Story 07:00 The Timeline of Your Life 11:30 Seeing the Entire Parade 15:00 If I Had My Way 19:00 We Crave Easy 23:00 What Is the Will of God? 27:30 Trust, Surrender & the Things We Would Change 31:00 Everybody Needs a Safe Person 34:00 When the Hard Becomes Part of the Good 38:00 Trusting God With What Comes Next JOIN THE CONVERSATION If you could go back and remove one hard thing from your story, would you? Now look a little closer. What came from it? What did God build, change, teach, redeem, or bring into your life because that chapter existed? Tell the girls what this conversation stirred up in you. And if you know a girlfriend who is in the middle of a chapter she would gladly skip, send this episode her way. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE A Million Miles in a Thousand Years — Donald MillerBack to the Future It’s a Wonderful Life Life Coaching with Amie Sometimes walking through the hard requires a safe person who can help you see what you can’t see on your own.

    Saved, Salty & The Side Eye

    What happens when you’re genuinely grateful for your life… and still catch yourself looking sideways at somebody else’s? Joyce, Judy, and Amie dig into the surprisingly sneaky connection between envy, happiness, and contentment—and discover that coveting doesn’t always look like wanting someone else’s house, clothes, or stuff. Sometimes it looks like wishing your family circumstances were different. Wanting the security someone else has. Grieving an experience you may never get. Or quietly deciding that one more thing might finally make you happy. This conversation gets tender, funny, and very honest as the girls ask what it really means to be content without pretending there aren’t things we still wish were different. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED  • Genesis 3 • Romans 12:2 CHAPTERS 00:00 Covetousness, Contentment & the Odd Girl 04:00 Happiness vs. Contentment 09:00 Seek, Covet, Take & Hide 14:00 The Envy We Don’t Always Recognize 20:00 When You Can’t Change the Circumstance 27:00 Grief, Gratitude & Wanting Something Different 33:00 Security, Relationships & What Feels Missing 38:00 What Are You Settling For? JOIN THE CONVERSATION  Where does envy or discontentment sneak into your life in a way you didn’t expect? Maybe it isn’t about stuff at all. Maybe it’s a relationship, a family situation, an opportunity, or something you wish were different. Tell us what this conversation brought up for you—or email us privately at hello@oddgirloutofficial.com. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE  The Envy of Eve — Melissa B. Kruger A deeper look at covetousness, contentment, and the patterns that begin when we believe something else will satisfy us more than what God has given us.

    Easy Button, Please

    Episode 04 | Easy Button, Please Wouldn’t it be nice if life came with an easy button? Skip the tension. Avoid the uncomfortable. Get straight to the good part. Yes, please. Unfortunately, that may not be how this works.  Using the picture of a bow and arrow, Joyce, Judy, and Amie unpack the “power in the pull”—the tension that comes before release, direction, and impact. From people-pleasing and trying to fit in, to uncomfortable conversations, family roles, faith, and Joyce’s prodigal years, the girls explore what happens when we stop running from tension and allow God to use it. Maybe the goal isn’t a tension-free life. Maybe it’s learning to trust the One who knows exactly how much tension is needed to prepare us for where He’s sending us. SCRIPTURE MENTIONED • Romans 12:2 • Romans 8:17 • Luke 15:11–32 CHAPTERS 00:00 Easy Button, Please 03:30 Why Tension Has a Purpose 07:30 When the Pull Gets Uncomfortable 12:30 Avoiding Tension vs. Walking Through It 17:00 Finding Safety in Familiar Places 22:00 Fitting In vs. Belonging 27:00 Family Roles and the Stories We Carry 32:00 Good, Acceptable & Perfect 36:00 What Are You Sacrificing to Avoid the Tension? JOIN THE CONVERSATION  What are you sacrificing to avoid tension? Maybe it’s a hard conversation, a boundary, an honest look at yourself, or something God is asking you to walk through instead of around. Tell us in the comments, and invite a girlfriend to pull up a chair and join the conversation.

    Jonah!

    Episode 03 | Jonah! What if the thing that feels like punishment is actually part of the rescue? Joyce, Judy, and Amie revisit the story of Jonah through a fresh lens—asking what happens when our running, resistance, weakness, and even our descent become places God can redeem. From the belly of the fish to Nineveh, this conversation explores rescue, suffering, forgiveness, self-worth, and the God who can bring a rising out of our deepest places. Scripture Mentioned • Jonah 1–4 • Matthew 12:40 • Romans 8:17 • Romans 12:2 Chapters 00:00 Pull Up a Chair 03:00 Jonah: Punishment or Rescue? 07:30 The Fish Wasn’t the End of the Story 13:30 What If God Knew Jonah Would Run? 18:30 Used Because of Our Weakness 23:30 The Descent and the Rising 29:00 Doing the Work in the Fish Belly 34:30 Worth, Pride, and Being Saved Daily 41:00 What Are You Drowning In?

    The God Hours

    Episode 02 | The God Hours What if waking in the middle of the night isn’t always an interruption… but an invitation? In this episode, Joyce, Judy, and Amie explore the idea of “God Hours”—those quiet moments when the world is still and God may be inviting us to slow down, listen, and remember His faithfulness. What begins as a conversation about sleep unfolds into stories of Samuel, Joseph, Paul and Silas, and the ways God still speaks in unexpected moments. Scripture Mentioned Proverbs 311 Samuel 3Genesis 37–41Acts 16:25–34Romans 12:2 Chapters 00:00 The God Hours 03:30 Could Sleepless Nights Be an Invitation? 07:20 Samuel Hears God’s Voice 13:45 Learning to Listen Instead of Resist 18:30 Mary, Martha, and the Struggle to Surrender 24:00 Joseph, Dreams, and God’s Perfect Timing 30:10 Paul and Silas: Freedom That Was Never Just About Them 37:20 Trusting God Before You Understand Join the Conversation Ever experienced a “God hour” when God met you in the quiet?
