Singleness: Assumptions in the Church w/ Elizabeth Woodson

Singleness isn’t a waiting room—it’s a real, meaningful season. In this episode of Anchor + Waves, Jacque and Stacy have a conversation with author and speaker Elizabeth Woodson. Join us as they talk honestly about the assumptions the church often makes about singleness—and how those assumptions can quietly shape the way women see themselves. Together we unpack: • Why singleness is often misunderstood in church culture, • The hidden assumptions that can leave women feeling unseen or “incomplete”, • How to find purpose, joy, and contentment in your current season, • What it looks like to build real, life-giving community—no matter your relationship status. Whether you’re single, married, widowed, or divorced, this conversation will challenge the way you think about identity, belonging, and what it means to live a full life with Jesus. 👉 Subscribe so you don't miss any episodes. 👉 Listen now and be encouraged to trust God as we navigate the calm and the storms that life brings. 🎧 Also available on Spotify & Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 📺 Check us out on YouTube  As always, shoot us your questions at women@missionhills.org [women@missionhills.org] and enjoy today's episode. ============================= Resources ============================= The Woodson Institute [https://www.thewoodsoninstitute.org/] Newest Book: Habits of Resistance [https://a.co/d/03vcEPPI] ============================= Anchor + Waves: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Jacque Carlson, Stacy Ludwig 🎉 SPECIAL GUESTS:: Elizabeth Woodson 🎥 VIDEO + SEO DIRECTORS:: Zac Anderson, Colin McFarland 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

Friends over 70: Assumptions in the Church

What assumptions do we carry about women over 70? In this episode of Assumptions About the Church, Jacque and special guest host Erin Marken sit down with Sarah and Wendy, who are both deeply involved in church life, family, and serving. It is easy to assume that the older generation is slowing down, has nothing new to learn, and is resistant to change. Instead, what we learn in this episode is that those who choose deep community, intergenerational connections, and laughter are anything but. Listen in as we discover how God has used these women to do new works and to pass on the traditions of their faith. We can learn all kinds of things if we ask good questions. 👉 Subscribe so you don't miss any episodes. 👉 Listen now and be encouraged to trust God as we navigate the calm and the storms that life brings. 🎧 Also available on Spotify & Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 📺 Check us out on YouTube  As always, shoot us your questions at women@missionhills.org [women@missionhills.org] and enjoy today's episode. ============================= Anchor + Waves: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Jacque Carlson, Stacy Ludwig 🎉 SPECIAL GUESTS:: Sarah, Wendy Clark 🎥 VIDEO + SEO DIRECTORS:: Zac Anderson, Colin McFarland 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

Young Adults : Assumptions in the Church

What matters most for young adults today—empathy, loyalty, or something else? We all carry assumptions about young adults, often without realizing it. In the first episode of our Assumptions in the Church series, Jacque and Stacy sit down with JG Motice for a wide-ranging, meaningful conversation that touches on Gen Z's approach to truth-telling, technology, authority, and more. This episode invites us to listen across generations, ask better questions, and remember that God designed the Church to be intergenerational. Come learn, reflect, and be curious with us. 👉 Subscribe so you don't miss any episodes. 👉 Listen now and be encouraged to trust God as we navigate the calm and the storms that life brings. 🎧 Also available on Spotify & Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 📺 Check us out on YouTube  As always, shoot us your questions at women@missionhills.org [women@missionhills.org] and enjoy today's episode. ============================= Anchor + Waves: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Jacque Carlson, Stacy Ludwig 🎉 SPECIAL GUESTS:: JG Motice 🎥 VIDEO + SEO DIRECTORS:: Zac Anderson, Maddie Brouwer 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved
