After 3 miscarriages and 12 years of infertility, having a baby seemed like an impossible dream.
Then, to my complete astonishment, God answered our prayer! In the summer of 2024, I gave birth to our precious daughter, Caroline Marie.
Holding my daughter for the first time was a moment I will never forget. Here’s my birth story.

Ep 187 - Women have been told that men are the "standard of success" and we should do what they do. In the name of "equality" of course. Women have been pulled out of their homes, rejected their fertility, and are killing themselves to get accolades from their corporate bosses.
What if you've been lied to about womanhood?
What if you've been sold a bill of goods?
In todays' conversation, we're talking to Suzanne Venker about the TRUTH of womanhood and what actually makes for a satisfying life.

Ep. 184 - Modern women have been trained by culture to obsess over their bodies and everyone else's. We compare butts, boobs, curves, height and everything else. Many of us look in the mirror and cringe at what we see reflecting back. This is not okay for God's daughters. Let's discuss what it looks like to value the body God has given you and take care of it in a balanced way.

182 - Have you every read a passage in the Old Testament and thought, "What?! Does God even care about women?" If so, you're not alone. As modern Christian women it's crucial that we dig deeper to understand the context, history, and culture of what is happening in ancient Israel. As we do, we'll see that God's laws are actually FOR women.

Ep. 177 - Marriage has been held up as the pinnacle of biblical womanhood. Get married. Have babies. Take care of your family. That all sounds great IF you're married. But, what if you're not married? What if you're single for a season or for a life time? Does that disqualify a woman from glorifying God in her womanhood and with her life?
Madison Rudkin of the popular account Dear Single Woman joins us to expose the lies and bring forward the truth.

Ep 176 - Many Christian women have completely suppressed their sexuality and are pretending that they aren't sexual in any way. This has created a generation of Christian women who believe their sexuality is more of a curse than a blessing. The switch didn't flip when they got married and sex within marriage is miserable as well.
We're going to unpack why God's design for sexuality is actually a BLESSING and how to embrace your sex drive in a good God-designed way.

Ep 175 - Choosing to stay home with your kids isn't the most glamorous job. In fact, there aren't promotions, raises, or a paycheck. You won't get an annual company party with other employees celebrating your achievements and patting you on the back. Most often the opposite is true. You're left exhausted by the end of the day. The accolades are few. The rewards aren't always visible. So why do women choose homemaking and motherhood? Is it possible that this path is even MORE fulfilling than most other career choices?

Ep. 174 - Motherhood is one of the most beautiful and complicated callings in the world. You'd give your life for your babies and you feel like you're losing your mind at the very same time.

Ep 173 - Are women bound to a life of misery if they take on this role in the home. Cooking. Cleaning. Caretaking. Sleeping. Wake up. Repeat. Is this brainless work? The home can be either a prison or a gospel flourishing environment. When you create a space for people to build relationships, nourish their bodies, learn, grow and build one another up, it's a life-giving gift.
Allow us to change your perspective in this conversation on the cooking, cleaning and the kitchen.

In fact, a few years ago Kristen actually begged her husband to run for president because she was so stressed about the current political climate of the day.
How can we, as Christian women, find peace and rest in Christ during these unknown times? How can we put our TRUST in Him?
Let's dig in.
