Plus there is a pretty fun extra at the end that will make you smile this thanksgiving!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING from the Confidence in Christ Podcast!!

Send us a text Have you ever felt like you may have been a little too reckless or gone a little too far for God to forgive you? Today we are here to tell you that that's just not true! There is nothing you can do to make God stop loving you. He will continue to pursue you even in your sin. My guest today is a new friend whom I go to church with! He actually reached out to share his testimony on our church's podcast and after having the conversation with him I knew I had to see if he'd a...

Send us a text Part of the reason we need to be in scripture so much is because sooner or later we are going to be faced with questions. Questions about why you believe what you believe, evidence for what you believe, etc. That sounds terrifying to most of us, right? We'd rather hide under a rock than have to defend what we believe. Why is that? If I had to take a guess, it's because we ourselves aren't even sure of the true reasons. We know we love God, we believe the Bible and trust that it...

Send us a text Anxious thoughts can be a constant in our lives and sometimes they seem like they will never quiet down. What do we do when they seem to swirl around our mind constantly? If we believe in Jesus Christ as our savior there is actually a lot we can do about it! First, we remind them of the truths we know from scripture. Second step can look different for all of us but it can include physical activity, breathing exercises and medication. (In the episode we give lots of info!) That ...

Send us a text The topic of spiritual warfare is not one you will hear preached on or talked about often. Why, because it makes people uncomfortable. We tend to avoid things that we don't fully understand and when it comes to talking about things we can't see with our eyes it adds another layer of uncertainty. This is the reason I wanted to have a conversation about it on the podcast. We are approaching the darkest holiday of the year later this week, halloween, and we as Bible believin...

Send us a text We've all heard things like, " You can do anything!", "She believed she could so she did!", "I am enough!"... the list goes on right? None of these are true!! Some of these sound totally valid though don't they? Isn't it funny how a simple little statement like that which is completely unbiblical can tickle our ears and make us feel secure and blessed? There are a slew of statements just like this that many of us (myself included) say often!! That is why I have Erica on today t...

Send us a text Sometimes we struggle with finding the courage to be who God has called us to be. Maybe we aren't even sure who that person is? Discovering who God says you are as a child of His changes everything! It helps solidify your identity in Christ, it makes walking in your calling and purpose clearer because of your relationship with the Lord. We talk all about it in today's episode with Cally! Cally Logan is the author of three books, a US History teacher, and a Senior Writer f...

Send us a text Rest. It feels like a luxury most days doesn't it? Something that is fleeting and nonexistent in some of our lives. But what if rest wasn't just something we did, but a way in which we lived? I'm not talking about a laziness or disinterest in doing the things God has called us to. I'm referring to the way we see things and experience them through the lens of the presence of God. That is exactly why I invited the Selah Ladies onto the podcast! This is the amazing group of women ...

Send us a text Have you ever scrolled through Pinterest and thought "that table scape/ party is perfect, I can never do that!" and with that thought leaves every thought of hosting anyone ever? Because... if it isn't that pretty no one will want to come.... right?? WRONG!! That is a lie from the devil himself friend and I need you to perk up and see that! Hosting people in our homes has become this glamorized, expensive production that it was never meant to be. It's simple but us humans...

Send us a text When I heard about Amanda's book about archeology and the Bible I HAD to talk to her! Have you ever thought about the fact that how we view the Bible and its stories might now accurately line up with what actually happened in that time period? Well, that's where Amanda comes in! She has a passion to help us see scripture as it actually was. What the landscape looked like, how the people lived and how things were actually laid out thousands of years ago. She does this thro...

Send us a text Anxiety has a way of impacting us in ways that are not just mental but also emotional and physical. It can wake us up in the middle of the night and cause our heart to race when our thoughts aren't anxious. Why does it do that and what does that mean for those of us who belong to Christ? Are we not trusting him enough? Is there something more we need to do? These are some of the questions Blair asked when anxiety began to invade her every day life. But the way Blair expla...

Send us a text I'm ashamed to say that I haven't taken a lot of prayer time to consider those in my life and community who are single parents. It's not something I've personally experienced so it doesn't come to my mind that often. But after this conversation with Elizabeth from Solo Parent, it's going to be a part of my daily prayer & call to action. Elizabeth Cole is the Vice President of Solo Parent and the owner of Storytold PR, a public relations firm based in Nashville, TN. He...

Send us a text Today we are talking about a subject that is so near and dear to my heart because it has transformed my life. It's WORSHIP!! A lot of people go through life not knowing what they are missing out on when it comes to a Biblical style of worship. Today's conversation is all about experiencing the freedom of worship and stepping out of fear and into freedom! One of my favorite people joined me for this conversation because her heart is right there with mine when it comes to l...

Send us a text As people who love the Lord we want to desire what God desires, we want to walk faithfully in obedience with little to no doubt. But... that isn't normally the case. We are human. We doubt, worry and wrestle with the calling God gives us at times. Maybe it doesn't feel as if it lines up with what we enjoy most or it seems like way too big of a challenge. But we as Christ followers know we can trust our unknown to our known God. Normally that's easier said than done though. ...

Send us a text The topic of the Holy Spirit is one that feels like most churches and people aren't discussing in fear of stepping on toes and upsetting people. The thing is... the Holy Spirit is our helper, He is THE PROMISED PRESENCE OF THE LORD.... whether that steps on toes or not we should be talking about Him! No matter what your stance is on the Holy Spirit, I hope we can all agree that He is a promised gift, the very presence of God who comes to live inside of us after we accept ...

Send us a text This is one of those episodes that requires a download and set to repeat. Wives, for Father's Day you can give your husband something that changes his life.. and it's not one of those cheesy t-shirts you've seen online. It's understanding how to communicate with him better, helping him understand what spiritual leadership actually is, letting him off the hook of being the perfect husband and dad and giving him the gift of affirmation & acceptance. Doesn't that sound g...

Send us a text Looking for our worth in things of this world can seem like the built in human response in life. Finding ourselves in friends, careers, relationships & finances can seem like the right thing to do, but it leaves us empty and still not knowing who we are. It can even make us question our faith in God. Wouldn't living a life of unshakable faith be a wonderful feeling? Knowing with no doubt in your mind that you belong to God and He loves you unconditionally! That knowing can ...
