• 470 // Release the Prison of Offense & Praying For Your Enemies (Bible Study and Devotional)
    Mar 14 2025

    Hey Sis! 🎙️

    Today's episode reminds us that perspective changes everything—especially when we're feeling overwhelmed by life's demands. We're wrapping up our scripture study from James 3:13-18, exploring the profound difference between earthly wisdom and heavenly wisdom. Our week concludes with a powerful devotional from "Love Your Enemies" by Vance K.

    Jackson that takes us through Job's remarkable example of forgiveness and restoration. If you've been struggling with offense or feeling betrayed by those closest to you, this episode offers biblical encouragement to release others from the prison of unforgiveness. We also dive into how heavenly wisdom is revealed not just in our words but in our actions—it's pure, peaceful, considerate, merciful, and sincere.

    The conversation reminds us that when we pray for those who have wronged us (just as Job did), God can turn our captivity into blessing.

    Take a deep breath, grab your Bible, and let's discover how true wisdom leads to a harvest of righteousness! 💛

  • 469 // Blessing Your Enemies: A Bible Study on James 3 & Kingdom Wisdom (Bible Study and Devotional)
    Mar 13 2025

    Hey Sis! 🎙️

    Today's episode is all about shifting our focus from offense to God's wisdom and challenging ourselves to bless those who curse us. We're diving into James 3:13-18, exploring what heavenly wisdom truly looks like—pure, peace-loving, considerate, and full of mercy. If you've been feeling stuck in hurt or resentment, this episode will help you release what's blocking your heart!

    We're continuing our devotional, "Love Your Enemies" by Vance K. Jackson, that perfectly complements our journey through dealing with complicated people. The devotional reminds us that when we focus more on our enemies than on God, we actually begin to worship the offense rather than the One who can heal us.

    Take a deep breath, grab your Bible, and let's discover how true wisdom leads to a harvest of righteousness! 💛

  • 468 // Is Jesus' Command to Love Your Enemies Actually Possible? (Bible Study and Devotional)
    Mar 12 2025

    Hey Sis! 🎙️

    Today's episode, we are distinguishing between true heavenly wisdom and the false wisdom that comes from selfish ambition and envy. We're continuing our study of James 3:13-18, diving deep into verses 14-16 where James challenges us to examine the source of our wisdom. Are we operating with wisdom from above or letting "earthly, unspiritual, and demonic" forces guide our behavior? If you've ever caught yourself comparing, competing, or trying to look better than others, this heart check is for you!

    Plus, we're starting a powerful new devotional called "Love Your Enemies" by Vance K. Jackson that's perfectly timed as we finish our discussion on complicated relationships. Day 1 introduces us to the radical commandment of Jesus to love our enemies—not just tolerate them, but to welcome them with agape love.

    We explore how this kind of love is actually a weapon that protects our hearts from becoming hardened by bitterness and hate. If you're carrying the weight of past offenses or struggling with difficult workplace relationships, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how to "attack with love" instead of mirroring negativity.

    Take a deep breath, grab your Bible, and let's discover how true wisdom leads to a harvest of righteousness! 💛

  • 467 //The Freedom of Forgiveness: Jesus' Example for Dealing with Difficult People (Bible Study and Devotional)
    Mar 11 2025

    Hey Sis! 🎙️

    Today's episode begins with a discussion about heavenly wisdom versus earthly wisdom as we begin our study of James 3:13-18. We're exploring what true wisdom looks like—not just knowing the right answers, but living with humility and good deeds that reflect Christ in our daily lives.

    Plus, we're wrapping up our devotional "How to Deal with Complicated People" by Ryan Leak with a powerful reflection on forgiveness. If you've been struggling with complicated relationships, today's message about choosing "ongoing forgiveness for ongoing freedom" will remind you that while you can't control who you encounter, you can control how you show up.

    We also explore Jesus's incredible example of forgiveness on the cross and what it means for our own relationships.

    Take a deep breath, grab your Bible, and let's discover how true wisdom leads to a harvest of righteousness! 💛
