She Wrestles with God | Daily Devotional for Strong Women

False Sense of COMFORT (2 Corinthians 1:3-4)

You keep running back to the old patterns of what you know won't actually make you feel any better -- hiding in work, ordering more food, texting that guy, or watching just one more episode. Or maybe you don't even realize how much the scrolling and staying up late are burning you out, keeping you stuck, and (ultimately) getting between you and God. In this episode we talk about how to find COMFORT when your body keeps chasing control.

God Knows WHAT'S NEXT feat. Trent Shelton (Jeremiah 29:11)

If you're feeling unsure about your future, constantly praying for more clarity, and struggling to let God lead you, this replay is for you. Trent Shelton is back for a very special edition of our daily devotional, and he's sharing the verse his mama highlighted in the Bible in a season when he felt nothing was going his way. She said to him, "Baby, this verse is for you." So, BABY, THIS IS FOR YOUUUUU. (Also, you'll never read the letters "NFL" the same way again.)

Intentionally DATING (feat. AJ Norman)

Our conversation about being INTENTIONALLY SINGLE continues to be our top downloaded episode across all audio platforms, so AJ Norman is BACK to talk about readying our hearts and minds to start intentionally DATING. In this episode, we talk about getting clear about what you actually WANT (not just what you've settled for), the boundaries we set BEFORE we ever even go on the first date, and the wife privileges so many of us are handing out to random strangers. COMMENT with more questions to tackle of for our next conversation!!

For the Love of MONEY (1 Timothy 6:10)

Sometimes the thing you thought would give you freedom can slowly start running your life... In this episode, I’m being really honest about the ways I accidentally let my business, ambition, money, and irrational ideas of success start running me instead of allowing God to lead me. If your work, your business, or your desire for “more” has started burning you out, costing you your peace, or turning you into someone you never wanted to become, this conversation is for you (and this will be one of many).

God Gave You a Voice (Jeremiah 1:9)

I’m recording this one from a messy hotel room in Anaheim, the night before speaking to 5,000 people -- and, YES, I still get scared!! In this episode, I’m sharing the Bible verses I read when the self-doubt gets loud, especially before a big conversation or a presentation. If you need a little extra something to give you the confidence to say THE thing, here's a reminder of how God is always with you and will give you the words.
