This Might Be Controversial

1 Thess. 3

As we read through this chapter, we discuss the reality that following Jesus doesn't exempt us from difficulty, it often strengthens us through it. We talk about encouragement, spiritual support, and what it looks like to remain faithful when life gets challenging. Join us as we explore Paul's joy over a church that continued trusting God through trials and consider how we can develop the same kind of resilient faith today.

1 Thess. 2

This week we're continuing our journey through Thessalonians with chapter 2. As Paul reflects on his time with the Thessalonian believers, we get a glimpse into what authentic ministry really looks like. His goal wasn't popularity, approval, or personal gain—it was faithfulness to God and genuine love for people. Together, we discuss what it means to share not just the gospel, but our lives with others. We talk about spiritual influence, discipleship, perseverance, and the challenge of living for God's approval rather than the world's. Once again, there's no script and no polished lesson plan—just honest conversation, open Bibles, and a desire to learn from God's Word together. Because sometimes the best way to study Scripture is simply to read it and let it speak. 🌿📖 WATCH: VLOG SERIES: Godly Girl Diaries [https://www.youtube.com/@GodlyGirlDiaries] CONNECT: @tori___mae [https://www.instagram.com/tori___mae?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] @abbi.motsinger [https://www.instagram.com/abbi.motsinger?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] SUPPORT: Venmo @godly_girls [https://www.venmo.com/u/godly_girls] — or simply support us by liking, subscribing, or sharing the podcast!

1 Thess. 1

Welcome to the first episode of our Thessalonians series! We're doing things a little differently this time. No studio. No outlines. No matching podcast outfits. Just us, our Bibles, and God's creation as we read through Scripture together. In this episode, we dive into 1 Thessalonians chapter 1, where Paul celebrates a church whose faith was impossible to ignore. We discuss what it means to have a faith that doesn't just stay personal but impacts the people around us, the evidence of genuine transformation, and how the Thessalonians became an example to other believers despite their challenges. Join us as we slow down, read God's Word, and have an authentic conversation about what stands out, what challenges us, and what we can learn from one of the earliest churches. Grab your Bible, head outside if you can, and join us as we begin our journey through Thessalonians together. 🌿📖☀️ WATCH: VLOG SERIES: Godly Girl Diaries [https://www.youtube.com/@GodlyGirlDiaries] CONNECT: @tori___mae [https://www.instagram.com/tori___mae?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] @abbi.motsinger [https://www.instagram.com/abbi.motsinger?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==] SUPPORT: Venmo @godly_girls [https://www.venmo.com/u/godly_girls] — or simply support us by liking, subscribing, or sharing the podcast!

Hot Takes

You had takes. We had thoughts. After the first Hot Takes episode, we asked for your opinions—and you did not disappoint. In this episode, we're reacting to your hot takes, unpopular opinions, and thought-provoking questions. Some had us laughing, some sparked deeper conversations, and a few left us completely divided. From lighthearted debates to heavier topics, this episode is full of honest reactions, unexpected discussions, and plenty of moments that made us stop and think. Whether you agree, disagree, or find yourself changing your mind halfway through, these listener-submitted takes made for some of our most interesting conversations yet. The opinions are yours. The reactions are ours. Let's get into it.

This Might Be Controversial

We're starting with the easy stuff... and ending with opinions that might get us in trouble. In this episode, we're sharing our hot takes—starting with lighthearted debates and harmless unpopular opinions before slowly making our way into some more controversial territory. From everyday preferences and random pet peeves to bigger conversations about culture, church, relationships, and faith, nothing is completely off limits. Some takes will have you laughing. Some might make you think. A few may have you strongly disagreeing—and that's okay. This episode is all about having honest conversations, hearing different perspectives, and not taking ourselves too seriously along the way. Whether you're team Tori, team Abbi, or think we're both completely wrong, grab a seat and join the discussion.
