Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with the first of a two-part message on honoring God with our time. The Bible says that we are called to âredeem the timeâ, which means to seize each moment God has given us and use it for His glory, and not our own selfish agenda. As Leslie shares in this episode, effectively managing our time is a key way to avoid wasting our lives on temporal, meaningless things. Leslie unpacks two key principles for keeping our lives and time centered around God's priorities, no matter what season we are in.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series by offering key Biblical truths for seasons of loneliness. Loneliness is not Godâs lifelong design for us, but seasons of loneliness are a necessary part of following the narrow way of the Cross. As Leslie reminds us in this episode, instead of seeing loneliness as a problem that needs to be avoided at all costs, we can choose to embrace it as an opportunity to grow closer to Christ than we ever thought possible. We do not serve a distant God who canât relate to our struggles or meet our deepest needs, but the perfect fulfillment of every longing within our heart, even in seasons of loneliness.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with Part One of a message about becoming a faithful Christian. In this episode, Leslie shares two powerful stories from Christian history, when ordinary men and women chose a path of faithfulness and availability to God - with world-changing outcomes. Leslie reminds us that there are no âspecial Christiansâ, only faithful Christians. Each of us has been called by God to impact the world for His glory.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with Part Two of her message: What is a Biblical approach to health? Even though Scripture makes it clear that âlife is more than foodâ (Lk. 12:23), itâs all too easy to behave otherwise. Whether we fall into the trap of self-indulgence and laziness when it comes to our eating habits, or struggle with becoming preoccupied with health food and fitness, it's all too easy to veer away from God's pattern in how we care for our physical bodies. As Leslie shares in this episode, living a healthful lifestyle can be a wonderful way to serve our families, bring discipline into our lives, and keep our bodies strong for the things God has called us to. But it can also become a form of idolatry if we build our lives around health instead of around Christ. In this episode, Leslie shares practical Biblical principles that can help us break through the fog of confusing messages and trends, and keep our focus on Christ when it comes to the area of health and wellness in today's world.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a timely episode on responding to cultural and political issues in a Biblical way. We often respond to cultural darkness with fear, anger or indifference. But as Leslie shares in this episode, we are called to engage with cultural issues in a Christ-like, God-honoring way, and shine Truth in the midst of a lost and dying world. We are called to go forward boldly into the battle like Esther, upheld by the mighty hand of our Defender and Deliverer.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with this Biblical perspective on handling feelings of rejection. Many women struggle with feeling rejected by others. The enemy often uses these feelings of rejection to cause us to doubt Godâs love for us and distract us from our calling to shine the light of Christ to this world. In this encouraging message, Leslie shares two Scriptural principles to give us Heavenly perspective when we are struggling with rejection. When we understand who we are in Christ and grasp our value to Him, we can walk in confidence and joy, even if others reject us.
Scriptures covered in this episode: 1 John 1:9, Psalm 103: 12, Is 61:3, Joel 2:25, Gen 50:20, Luke 15:22-24, Psalm 45:10-11, 1 Sam 2:8.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a Biblical look on contentment in singleness. Many voices in modern Christianity imply that it is not possible to be happy or fulfilled in the single years. It's true that God designed us for relationship with others and, for most of us, He designed us for marriage. But as Leslie shares in this episode, it is not true that Jesus alone isnât enough to fulfill us at the deepest level, even if every form of human companionship is stripped away. God has a tremendous purpose for our single years. This episode shows us that contentment in Christ is possible by His enabling grace, whether married or single, whether in plenty or in want, whether in easy circumstances or difficult ones. Even if we never experience earthly marriage, we can be completely fulfilled by our relationship with Jesus Christ.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a practical and eye-opening look at true Biblical modesty. We often make the mistake of defining modesty only by the style of clothing someone is wearing, but as Leslie shares in this episode, modesty is far more of an outflow of someoneâs heart condition than anything else. If we truly desire to showcase honor; to glorify Jesus and point eyes to Him, true modesty will be the natural outflow of our lives, not just in what we wear but in how we act, how we conduct our conversations, and how you show respect and honor to others around us. As Leslie reminds us in this message, true modesty is not dour and oppressive, but life-giving and liberating.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series this week with a Biblical look at decision making. Many Christians believe that it is more spiritual to use our common sense, follow our hearts, make our own decisions, and then ask God to bless them. The idea of waiting for Godâs leading before we move forward with a decision is becoming a foreign concept among modern believers. If youâve ever been confused about what role God wants to play in your decisions or how to determine His specific will for your life, you are not alone. In this episode Leslie unpacks what Bible has to say about being directed by God in our decision-making.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series this week with a Biblical and practical response to the question, "how can I hear God's voice?" Many Christians assume that God isn't interested in offering direct guidance for daily decisions, but the Bible makes it clear that we can hear, know, and follow the voice of our Shepherd. In this episode, Leslie shares two key principles that can help us learn to recognize the voice of God in our lives and cultivate a listening ear to His Spirit's leading.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series this week by tackling the topic "How can I know God's will for my life?" It might seem hard to discern what Godâs specific calling on our lives. Am I called to be married or single? Am I called to be a missionary? Am I called to have a career? Am I called to this specific opportunity? But as Leslie shares in this episode, we all too often we get caught up in those kinds of questions and miss the fact that all our decisions are meant to flow out of a much deeper understanding of who we are called to be - daughters of the King.

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series this week with a deep dive into the question "Why does it seem like women's ministries are often shallow?" In this episode, Leslie unpacks some of the key reasons why many Christian leaders are choosing an easy, watered-down Gospel when it comes to women's ministry, and shows us how our own passionate pursuit of Jesus Christ can have a positive impact upon this modern-day trend. It wonât be chick flicks, spa parties, or shallow feel-good messages that will change a womanâs life and awaken her heart to the Gospel. It will be the pure, uncompromising, timeless Truth of Jesus Christ. This episode reminds us not to settle for shallow when it comes to our spiritual lives, and offers practical ways we can influence the women around us to go after more of Jesus.
