Discernment, the Five Senses, and Louis Vuitton

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 01:19:55 GMT

At my new job, I was inspecting a pair of shoes that were claimed to be authentic designer sneakers.

Were they?

And what does that have to do with wisdom and discernment?

#80 Prayer vs. "Nagging"

Thu, 06 Nov 2025 16:06:36 GMT

My husband used to think I was the only one who could hear from God in our relationship. That's because I was acting like the Holy Spirit in our relationship. (Ouch!) Women need to use their voice. For sure! But nagging is really different from being heard and valued. What happens when our FIRST reaction is to pray and ask the Lord to move rather than nagging someone to death until they do what we want?

#66 Hearing God's Voice

Wed, 06 Aug 2025 16:09:13 GMT

I have to say this is a question I've heard a lot in my life.

"How do I hear God's voice?"

"How do I know it's God speaking?"

"How do I discern whether it's God's voice or just my own thoughts?"

"What if God isn't speaking to me?"

On this second episode on Prayer in the Four Bold Moves series, I'll break down four key points in hearing God's voice.

Rebellion is Like Witchcraft?

Thu, 27 Mar 2025 09:00:00 GMT

A scene in the new mini-series "House of David" sent a chill down my spine. I learned that rebelling against God is very serious business, even if we think it's "just a little thing and doesn't really matter".

I start with a little life update so if you want to skip to the teaching, go to about 5 minutes in.

Oops! The Solomon piece I mention is in 2 Chronicles 1, not 1 Chronicles.

You can find Greg Laurie's House of David series HERE.

Thu, 01 Jul 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Laura Yocum. If you don't know her, that's a bummer. But maybe you know someone like her?
A woman who puts the stake of God's Truth in the ground and doesn't have any intention of wavering from it.

#32 "Happily Ever After" redefined

Thu, 24 Jun 2021 12:25:54 GMT

Aubrey's voice is like butter. You'll want to listen to this episode a thousand times just to hear her say all of the words.

I'm not joking.

A little teaching on our jacked-up definition of what "happily ever after" is and then a little interview with Aubrey Brush - a single woman full of the Spirit and full of intelligent conversation surrounding contentment and joy.

She works at True Girl.

New Series! (in a Scottish brogue)

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 09:00:00 GMT

Not to brag, but I have a Scottish friend. Her name is Nicola and she's helping me introduce this new podcast series.

"Arise, my darling.
Come away, my beautiful one.
For now the winter is past;
the rain has ended and gone away.
The blossoms appear in the countryside.
The time of singing has come,
and the turtledove’s cooing is heard in our land.
The fig tree ripens its figs;
the blossoming vines give off their fragrance.
Arise, my darling.
Come away, my beautiful one."

Song of Solomon 2:11-13

#29 Dreading Mother's Day? (Or know someone who is?)

Mon, 03 May 2021 19:58:19 GMT

I see you, friend who is dreading Mother's Day. Here are 3 three things that are helping me. Maybe they'll help you, too.

Mother's Day isn't all candy and flowers for everyone. It's a really complicated holiday for a lot of men and women. This year's been especially hard for me. Lots of tears. Lots of grief. Lots of...nameless wild emotions.

#20: 4 Things I Do To Stay Focused in Prayer

Tue, 12 Jan 2021 23:00:00 GMT

To kick off 2021, here's a tiny little episode packed with four really practical things I actually do to keep my mind from wandering during times of prayer. As Troy Bolton famously sang, "You gotta keep your head in the game."

Ep. 18: The Weary World Rejoices...in Simplicity

Thu, 10 Dec 2020 10:00:00 GMT

Emily Burns of Living for Simple is in the HOUSE! Well, actually, I was in HER house and we had a blast talking about what Simplicity really means to her. How is it different from Minimalism? Can you live more simply even if you have three young children? Does living for simple only apply to possessions? SO many good questions!

As Emily sat in her intermittently creaky wooden chair by her simply decorated Christmas tree, peace and joy just flowed from her lips with the greatest of ease. You will love her.

See gorgeous posts and photos of Emily's simplified life on Instagram.

Ep. 13: My Current Favorite Acronym

Thu, 05 Nov 2020 10:00:00 GMT

Back in the day, we'd sign our notes to friends with acronyms like LYLAS (Love You Like a Sister), AFA (A Friend Always) or AFF (A Friend Forever). I'll probably never forget what those letters stand for. Sometimes acronyms are great ways to remember scripture, too.

Today I'm sharing the 4 letters that keep runnin' on repeat in my mind these days.

I also share one of my Trick or Treat Candy hacks. It's a little mean but completely satisfying.

If you're looking for the real, raw rumination of a woman pressing into healing only the Lord can give, you are in the right spot. A woman of God I know (who chooses to remain anonymous) wrote this allegorical piece as she processed some of her own wounding and the insecurity it produced.

This is an excerpt from my book Arrows Make Terrible Crowns, which is about to drop in the next month or so.

Ep. 2: Guilt and Gauges

Thu, 03 Sep 2020 09:00:00 GMT

We need to listen to others who are a few steps ahead of us in life so we can learn how to navigate our current season. My Jesus-loving sister-in-law, Lisa Harding, sat down with me at Thanksgiving in 2019 and shared some great perspectives for all moms about "mom guilt." She blew my MIND with "The Three Gauges." Even if you skip forward and just listen to that part, you'll be better for it. (You can find it at about 7 minutes 37 seconds.) Something you should know is Lisa is a legit doctor. That means lots of things but what it means for MY family is she is on-call for every single family gathering we have because someone ALWAYS gets injured. ALWAYS.

But for me, they're not typical words I pray, say or even think.
At least, they used to not be typical.

But now, I don't know how I prayed without them.
