Wholly Pure

On this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, explore what it means to be wholly pure in a world overflowing with impurity. Purity isn’t partial—it’s a heart fully cleansed, fully devoted, and continually refined by God. While sin subtly seeps in and desensitizes us over time, God calls us to something higher: a life set apart, washed, and sustained by the cleansing power of Jesus. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily continues the series on what it means to wholly follow God by focusing on being wholly connected to Him. This conversation centers on the reality of struggling with consistency in prayer and finding grace in every season of spiritual growth.

Wholly Trust

In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, we explore what it truly means to wholly trust in the Lord. Proverbs 3 reminds us to trust God with all our hearts and not lean on our own understanding. But what does that look like when life is stormy, uncertain, or confusing? Looking at examples from Scripture, we see that trusting God doesn’t mean the path will be easy. It means believing that God is present, powerful, and faithful—no matter what the path looks like. Throughout Scripture, God repeatedly made a way where there seemed to be none: The Red Sea opening for Israel (Exodus 14)Provision in the wilderness (Exodus 16–17)Crossing the Jordan River (Joshua 3)The fall of Jericho (Joshua 6)David defeating Goliath (1 Samuel 17)Deliverance from the Assyrians (2 Kings 19)Most importantly, God made a way for salvation through Jesus Christ. God’s history of faithfulness reminds us that no problem we face is greater than His power. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Wholly Follow

In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily Hatfield explores what it truly means to wholly follow the Lord. Looking at the powerful example of Caleb, we’re challenged to consider whether our hearts are fully aligned with God — even when standing alone. What It Means to Wholly Follow the Lord 1. Trusting God Over Opposition Caleb believed no obstacle was greater than God’s power — not fortified cities, not giants, not fear. When others saw impossibility, Caleb saw God’s provision. We are reminded: The One who is in us is greater than the one in the world.Jesus has overcome the world.We do not follow in fear — we follow in faith.2. Standing Firm — Even Among God’s People Sometimes opposition doesn’t come from the world, but from fellow believers. Caleb stood against the majority report — even when it came from men who should have trusted God. Wholly following may look like: Refusing to join gossip.Questioning unbiblical teaching with humility.Choosing obedience over popularity.Living differently than other families.Saying no when others say yes — and yes when others say no.We follow the Lord — not the crowd.3. Serving Faithfully for a Lifetime In Joshua 14:6–12, Caleb is 85 years old and still asking for the hill country filled with giants. He declares he is just as strong and ready for battle as he was at 40. Wholly following the Lord means: No spiritual retirement.No “I did my time” mentality.No slowing zeal because of age or experience.Lifelong faithfulness.As long as we have breath, we serve.A Warning Example: Solomon Not everyone finishes well. Solomon is described in 1 Kings 11:6 as one who “did not wholly follow the Lord.” Despite wisdom and blessing, Solomon allowed divided loyalties. In contrast, David — though imperfect — is remembered as one who wholly followed the Lord: He repented when confronted.He fought when called.He waited for God’s timing.He aligned his heart with God’s.Wholly following is not about perfection — it’s about direction.In a culture that: Celebrates following your heartRewards popularityCompetes for your attentionBe a Caleb.Stand firm when it’s hard.Trust God when it’s unpopular.Serve Him when no one else does. There is no such thing as a sideline Christian. The wilderness generation shows us where that leads. But stepping up in faith? That’s a Caleb move. A David move. And that’s the heart God desires. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Wholly Known

In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily Hatfield explores the deeply encouraging truth that we are fully and completely known by God. Drawing from Scripture and personal testimony, she reminds listeners that belonging to Jesus means we are never unseen, forgotten, or alone. Emily reflects on how Jesus consistently showed others that He saw them personally—whether it was Peter’s empty fishing nets, Nathanael under the fig tree, or the outcasts and grieving people He welcomed with compassion. That same attentive care is true for us today. The episode centers on the beauty of Psalm 139, where David marvels at the intimate knowledge God has of each individual life: our thoughts, words, paths, and even the days written for us before we were born. God’s knowledge is not distant or impersonal—it is loving, detailed, and constant. Emily also shares her own experience of grief, depression, and losing her mother, offering a powerful reminder that God meets His children in the darkest moments. Through a meaningful “God moment” involving a necklace inscribed with John 14:18 (“I will not leave you as orphans”), she highlights how God’s comfort often comes in deeply personal ways. Ultimately, this episode invites wives to rest in the truth that God knows every part of us—our struggles, our fears, our sins, and our sorrow—and still loves us completely. Being wholly known by God is not something to fear, but a source of strength, comfort, and hope. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Wholly Invested

In today’s episode, Emily Hatfield explores what it means to be wholly invested in Jesus Christ. We understand investment in everyday life — in books, TV shows, vacations, even motherhood — but what does it look like to be fully committed to the Lord and His work? Using encouragement from 1 Peter 4, this episode challenges believers to rethink suffering, endurance, and wholehearted devotion. True investment in Christ means we don’t quit when following Him becomes uncomfortable — we stay faithful all the way to the end. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Wholly Separated

In this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, Emily Hatfield explores what it truly means to be wholly separated from sin while living in a fallen world saturated with it. Drawing from scripture, personal experience, and biblical examples, Emily challenges listeners to examine their desires, guard their hearts, and intentionally pursue holiness—not by isolation from the world, but by transformation through Christ. Using Lot’s gradual move toward Sodom as a warning, Emily reminds us that sin rarely overtakes us all at once. Instead, it creeps in as our hearts grow comfortable with what God calls us to flee. This episode is a call to daily self-examination, renewed focus on Jesus’ sacrifice, and a deeper hatred of sin in all its forms. Though perfection is not possible this side of eternity, faithful striving is. Through Christ’s continual cleansing, we can walk in freedom and choose separation from sin again and again. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

8 years and a few kids into marriage, I constantly get encouragement, edification and admonished through Wifey Wednesday. In my head, Emily is that friend and sister in Christ that gives me the firm shake I need during the ‘ for better or for worst’ season of my marriage. I love that she shares personal stories and shares that she is human too. I also LOVE that she is scripturally solid and ties her statements back to the Bible. Far too many podcasts advertise as being Christian, but never reference scripture or the Bible. Emily does! And It is wonderfully refreshing! Also, I look forward to my Wednesday gym time to listen to new episodes :-)
Very encouraging!
