    - [00:39:15] We’ll dive into what 'cheap grace' versus 'costly grace' looks like and why our faith journey is more marathon than a sprint – especially during those times when doubt creeps in, and you wonder if any of this really matters.
    - [00:50:49] Can we get personal? I'll open up about the times when even I find reading the Bible a snooze and how I've learned to find rivers of relevance in scripture that sometimes feels dry as a desert.
    In this episode, it's all about shaking off the numbness and awakening to a vibrant, honest, and obedient faith walk. Whether you’re struggling to connect with God, wrestling with questions, or just plain feeling blah about faith, know that you're not alone.

A voice of confidence & courageous faith

I recently came across Emily’s show, “The Thought Vault,” and love her voice. Not only her encouraging and gracious tone, but also her boldness in faith as a voice to call out courageously for women to rise up and stand in truth with Christ…so peacefully powerful. Thank you, Emily. I pray that you continue to follow Jesus and that the women who need to hear your show will be prompted to.

Wonderful podcast

I love listening to Emily! Her words are so thoughtful and I feel that she is speaking Gods truth. She does such a great job of inspiring and motivating to think about your own life and how to use Christ to better ourselves.

Fresh approaches to Biblical content

I’m really loving this podcast because it is making me think about familiar things in the Bible in different ways. Emily shares hard truths in ways that are encouraging and motivate me to change.
