As a new year begins, many Christian women feel an unspoken pressure to do more, fix more, try harder, and finally “get it right.” But what if God isn’t asking you to strive at all? What if He’s inviting you into something deeper — abiding in Christ and learning true contentment? In this opening episode of Season 2 of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, Sarah Phillipe and Satin Pelfrey invite you into a Spirit-led conversation about heart posture over performance, faith over fear, and learning how to trust God fully instead of chasing outcomes. This episode is for the woman who feels spiritually tired, emotionally stretched, or quietly longing for peace, clarity, and deeper intimacy with Jesus. Together, Sarah and Satin reflect on how God shaped their hearts in the previous season — through surrender, obedience, healing, and quiet refining — and how He is now calling them (and you) into a new posture for the year ahead. Sarah shares her word for the year, abide, unpacking what Scripture teaches about remaining rooted in Christ, staying connected to the Vine, and drawing life from Him rather than from striving. Satin shares her word for the year, contentment, revealing how a settled trust in God’s timing and portion protects your peace, guards your calling, and frees you from comparison. In this episode, you’ll learn: What it truly means to abide in Christ according to John 15 Why God often deepens your inner life before expanding your outer assignment How contentment is not complacency, but confident trust in God Why comparison quietly pulls us out of our God-given purpose How to walk in obedience, peace, and clarity without pressure or performance Sarah and Satin also introduce Season 2’s new series, “Your Body Is His Temple,” where they’ll explore honoring God with your whole life — spirit, soul, and bod y— through biblical stewardship rather than fear or control. They also invite listeners into their brand-new Spirit Filled Sisterhood community, a Christ-centered space for Christian women to grow in faith, discipleship, and authentic sisterhood together. If you’re longing for a slower, more surrendered way of living…If you’re craving deeper faith, peace in Christ, and Spirit-filled community…If you’re ready to stop striving and start abiding… This episode will gently guide your heart into the new year with truth, encouragement, and hope. Because you were never meant to walk this journey alone.You were created for faith, friendship, purpose, and Christ-centered living. This isn’t' small talk.

You’re not alone, sister. In this special Christmas episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we’re sharing why we’re stepping into a season of rest and how God is inviting you to do the same. As Christian women, we often feel torn between our desire to walk boldly in our Kingdom purpose and the expectations of a world that glorifies hustle.

Feeling like you’ve done all the right Christian things — praying, serving, showing up at church — yet your life still doesn’t look anything like the breakthrough you’ve been praying for? Maybe God asked you to lay something down — a business, a relationship, a form of idolatry or counterfeit spirituality in your life — and now you’re in a season of waiting, wondering, Did I really hear God’s voice? Is this what obedience and surrender are supposed to feel like? In this episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we’re having a real conversation about God’s redemption and favor through obedience. We share how for us, saying yes to Jesus in the holistic health world, meant walking away from divination and idols and how that costly obedience — emotionally, relationally, and financially — became the doorway to deeper surrender, clearer purpose, and a more Christ-centered calling. This is about moving from striving to trusting God fully, from fear of the unknown to walking in faith over fear, and from people-pleasing to living for an Audience of One. You’ll hear: How to discern God’s voice and walk in spiritual discernment when obedience doesn’t make sense. Why delayed or partial obedience keeps you from experiencing the fullness of God's favor and purpose. The role of repentance, humility, and discipleship in experiencing true redemption and restoration. What it looks like to build daily rhythms of small, faithful obediences — rooted in prayer, Scripture, and intimacy with God — that cultivate favor over time. How God used a season of pause, loss, and laying things down to birth a new, Spirit-filled ministry, deeper Christian sisterhood, and this very podcast. If you’re a modern Christian woman who feels spiritually exhausted, misunderstood, or afraid of what obedience might cost, this episode will remind you that God’s love, grace, and redemption are already at work in your story. His favor isn’t reserved for the perfect — it’s poured out on the submitted. You were created for Kingdom purpose, called to walk by faith, not by sight, and invited into Christ-centered sisterhood that points you back to your identity in Christ. Your “yes” to Jesus — no matter how small — can become the turning point of your whole story. This isn't small talk.

Have you ever been drawn to something that sounded spiritual but later left you questioning if it truly aligned with biblical truth? In today’s powerful conversation on Spirit Filled Girl Talk, Sarah and Satin expose one of the most deceptive trends infiltrating the Christian wellness world — energy healing — and reveal how it subtly pulls women away from obedience, trust in God, and walking their true calling and Kingdom purpose. Sharing from their own journeys of deception and redemption, they unpack how phrases like vibration, frequency, and alignment sound faith-friendly but are often rooted in counterfeit Christianity. With compassion and conviction, they walk you through their personal experiences with “Mind Body Spirit Release,” the dangers of divination disguised as healing, and how easily even sincere disciples of Jesus can be led astray when they seek peace outside of Him. In this episode, you’ll learn:✨ How to discern between Biblical truth and New Age deception✨ Why the enemy twists biblical language to mimic light and peace✨ How to strengthen your faith and discernment by returning to Scripture and the Holy Spirit’s guidance✨ The difference between counterfeit peace and the true peace that comes when you surrender fully to Jesus✨ How to find freedom through repentance, discipleship, and abiding in Christ Friend, true emotional healing doesn’t come from manipulating energy — it comes from the presence of the Holy Spirit, processing your emotions at the feet of Jesus, and a heart fully surrendered to God. You don’t need energy healing; you need the Prince of Peace. This is your invitation to turn from counterfeit Christianity, walk in faith, and stand firm in Christ with sisterhood that points you back to Jesus. Because real freedom is found not in idols, but in trusting God and walking as His disciple — boldly, surrendered, and filled with His Spirit.

It’s about the moment when Jesus leaves the ninety-nine to chase after the one — you. It's a tender reminder: you are seen, pursued, and deeply loved by God. What You’ll Hear in This Episode: Religion Without Relationship: Understanding how growing up in church without knowing God’s heart can lead to spiritual dryness and hidden shame. The Pain of Infertility & the Idol of Motherhood: Discovering the emotional, spiritual, and physical toll of desiring a child, and how God gently reveals areas of misplaced hope. When Hope Feels Dangerous: Wrestling with unanswered prayers and learning to trust God’s goodness during long seasons of waiting. The Turning Point: A Spirit-filled moment with her best friend becomes the catalyst for surrender, peace, and supernatural breakthrough. Reckless Love of Jesus: Reflections on Luke 15, the parable of the lost sheep, and the Cory Asbury song that inspired this episode’s title. Breaking Lies & Receiving Truth: Daily time in Scripture helps replace shame with daughterhood, fear with freedom, and striving with peace. Re-Parenting & the Father’s Heart: Viewing God not as a distant judge, but a tender Father who heals our view of love and identity. Freedom from Shame: Understanding that peace in the waiting is possible through surrender, leading to stillness instead of striving. Overcoming Distraction: A call to break free from modern noise and return to quiet intimacy with God. The Invitation to Come Home: No matter how far you've run or how broken you feel, there is always a way back to the Father’s heart. Key Themes: The overwhelming love of God, healing from infertility, shame, and striving, spiritual surrender and trust, Luke 15 and the heart of the Father, discipleship, identity, and re-parenting, breaking lies and embracing truth, intimacy with God over distraction.    💌 Connect with Us:If this episode encouraged your heart, we’d love to hear from you! → Follow us on Instagram: @spiritfilledgirltalk → Share your story, message us, or let us know how we can pray for you. → Join our email list to stay in the loop about new episodes, resources, and more: https://spiritfilledgirltalk.com/   📣 Help Us Spread the Word!

Have you ever wondered why your faithfulness to the Lord doesn’t seem to produce visible results? You’re doing all the right things — praying, serving, staying obedient — yet it feels like nothing is happening. In this powerful and convicting episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, Sarah Phillipe and Satin Pelfrey explore what it truly means to walk in radical obedience and trust God’s plan when faithfulness doesn’t feel fruitful. Through biblical truth and real conversation, they unpack what Scripture teaches about obedience over sacrifice (1 Samuel 15:22), the danger of partial obedience, and how surrender to God often requires releasing your desire for control or outcomes. This conversation is for every woman of faith who has ever questioned whether her unseen obedience matters. Together, we’ll discover how to walk by faith, not sight, and why obedience — even when no one sees — always brings spiritual growth and transformation. 💬 In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Obedience Over Sacrifice — Why true obedience is about heart posture, not performance, and how Saul’s example of delayed or partial obedience reveals misplaced priorities. When Obedience Doesn’t Make Sense — How trusting God’s voice matters more than understanding His methods; it requires surrender. Faithfulness Anchors, Obedience Moves — Why your obedience may not yield immediate results, but it’s never wasted in God’s Kingdom. Faithfulness and obedience work hand-in-hand to shape your character and deepen your walk with God. 🕊️ Whether you’re walking through uncertainty, feeling unseen, or struggling to stay faithful, this episode will strengthen your relationship with God and remind you that obedience and surrender are where true peace and intimacy with God are found.
