His Way, Not Mine

His Way, Not Mine

His Way, Not Mine What happens when God's direction conflicts with our own plans? In this episode of Woman in the Word, we explore the transforming call to surrender our will in exchange for His. While our hearts naturally gravitate toward what feels right, Scripture reminds us that our perspective is limited, but God's purposes are perfect. Through Acts 20:24, we'll consider the apostle Paul's unwavering commitment to finish the race God set before him, regardless of the cost. In John 6:38, we'll look to Jesus, who came not to accomplish His own will, but the will of the Father—our ultimate example of joyful obedience. And in Proverbs 16:25, we'll be warned that what seems right in our own eyes can ultimately lead us away from God's best. Join us as we discover the freedom that comes from laying down our own agendas and trusting the One who sees the beginning from the end. When we choose His way over our own, we find purpose, peace, and the assurance that His plans are always better than anything we could design for ourselves. Whether you're facing a difficult decision, wrestling with unanswered questions, or simply longing to walk more faithfully with Christ, this episode will encourage you to trust God's direction over your own understanding and to boldly declare, "His way, not mine."

The Great Exchange

The Great Exchange What happened at the cross was more than an act of sacrifice—it was the greatest exchange in history. In this episode of Woman in the Word, we journey through Isaiah 53, the remarkable prophecy that points us to Jesus long before His birth. We'll discover the Suffering Servant who willingly took our place, bore our griefs, carried our sorrows, and was pierced for our transgressions. In His suffering, we receive peace. In His wounds, we find healing. Through His righteousness, we are made right with God. Isaiah 53 reveals the breathtaking beauty of the gospel: Christ took what was ours—our sin, guilt, shame, and judgment—and gave us what is His—His righteousness, forgiveness, peace, and eternal life. This is the great exchange that transforms everything. Join us as we unpack one of Scripture's most powerful portraits of Jesus and celebrate the Savior who willingly stood in our place so that we could stand forever in His grace.

Storm Warning

Storm warnings are given for a reason. They invite us to prepare, change course, or seek shelter before the winds begin to rage. But what happens when we ignore the warning? In Acts 27, Paul urges the crew not to continue their voyage, warning that the journey will end in disaster. Confident in their own judgment, they press on anyway—only to find themselves caught in a storm far beyond their control. Their story is a sobering reminder of what can happen when we dismiss wise counsel and fail to heed God's warnings. Yet even in the middle of the consequences, God's mercy is on display. Though the ship is lost, every life is spared just as God promised. His grace meets His people in the storm, reminding us that while our choices have consequences, His faithfulness never wavers. Join us for this episode of Woman in the Word as we study Acts 27 and consider the importance of listening when God warns us, trusting His wisdom over our own, and discovering that His presence remains steadfast—even when we've sailed into the storm ourselves.

What's Your Vibe?

What's Your Vibe? In this episode of Woman in the Word, we're diving into a powerful contrast found in 2 Samuel 6. As the ark of the Lord returned to Jerusalem, David danced, celebrated, and worshipped with abandon before God. Meanwhile, Michal watched from a window. One was fully engaged in the presence of God. The other stood at a distance, observing, criticizing, and disconnected from the moment. So, what's your vibe? Are you a worshipper like David—willing to humble yourself, rejoice, and respond to God's goodness with your whole heart? Or have you found yourself in the window seat with Michal, watching what God is doing in others while remaining spiritually detached? Join us as we explore the danger of becoming a window watcher, the freedom found in wholehearted worship, and the invitation God gives every woman to move from observation to participation in His presence. Don't just watch what God is doing—step into it. Enjoyed this episode of Woman in the Word?
