In this special "lost episode" recovered from the 2018 archives, Alana and Jaime return to the Praying Christian Women Podcast’s origin story to deconstruct the myth of the "perfect" prayer warrior.
If you have ever felt that your busy schedule disqualifies you from a deep spiritual life, this conversation flips the script, redefining prayer not as a quiet-time luxury, but as the "real work" that fuels every other task.
Drawing from the imagery of the Proverbs 31 woman, the hosts explore how to trade defensive, reactive panic for a proactive, offensive prayer strategy. They candidly discuss the struggle of the "inner critic," the challenge of mental focus, and the beauty of eucharisteo—finding power in thanksgiving.
Whether you are a seasoned intercessor or someone just trying to find five minutes of peace, tune in to discover that you don't need a perfect quiet time to be a powerful intercessor. Come exactly as you are, and let’s learn how to trade the heavy burden of religious duty for a relationship that truly changes everything.

What if the "wicked" standing trial in God’s courtroom aren't the godless, but the religious? What if the prosecution’s case is built not on your sins of ignorance, but on your acts of hypocrisy?
In this devotional on Psalm 50, we enter a divine lawsuit where God acts as the Judge, Witness, then Prosecutor. We move beyond the text to uncover the Hebrew context of the "wicked"—covenant members who recite God's statutes while secretly harboring deceit. We explore why God rejects the "cattle on a thousand hills" to demand something far more costly: a "sacrifice of thanksgiving."
Jaime also shares a candid personal reflection on the specific accusation of slandering "your own mother's son," connecting it to the heartbreaking political and spiritual fractures we see in the world today. She challenges us to examine our own role in that division—whether we are building unity or "letting our mouths loose in evil."
Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of tender hope. If you’ve been disheartened by discord among believers or caught in the trap of performative faith, this episode offers a path toward true integrity. Come ready to be examined by the Judge who desires your heart, not just your habits.

Is prayer meant to be a monologue where we ask for things, or a genuine two-way conversation where God talks back?
This week, Jennifer Slattery, host of the Faith Over Fear podcast, joins Jaime for an inspiring discussion on how to hear God's voice through the practice of interactive journaling.
In this episode, Jennifer unpacks the practical steps of this relational tool, explaining how to move from an intellectualized faith to an emotional connection with the Father. She discusses the importance of releasing expectations and trusting God to speak on His terms—whether through Scripture, nature, or even, as her daughter experiences it, through calculus.
You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on how to attune your ears to God's frequency, practical tips to start your own journaling habit, and the reassurance that God wants to connect with you just as much as you want to connect with Him.

What if the "ransom" for your soul is a price so high that no amount of wealth could ever cover it? What if the security you crave can't be found in your bank account, but in a transaction only God could make?
In this devotional on Psalm 49, we explore a biblical "riddle" that perfectly foreshadows the redeeming work of Christ. We move beyond the text to discuss the "legal" nature of the spiritual realm and the folly of trusting in riches. Jaime also shares a candid personal reflection on the hidden defenses we often use to avoid facing our true selves.
Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of deep encouragement and honest confession. If you’ve felt stuck in patterns of avoidance or envious of worldly success, this episode offers a fresh perspective on where your true worth lies. Come ready to drop your defenses and accept the freedom of a redeemed life.

Do our prayers really change anything, or is God just going to do what He wants anyway?
This week, Catherine Segars, host of the Christian Parent, Crazy World podcast, joins Jaime for a riveting discussion on the theology of intercession based on Watchman Nee’s classic book, Let Us Pray.
In this joint episode, Catherine unpacks the stunning concept that God often waits for His people to pray before He acts. She explains the "Train Track" analogy—how God’s will is the locomotive, but our prayers lay the rails for His power to move on earth.
Catherine also shares her dramatic personal testimony of warring in prayer for her miracle children in her 40s. She details how she learned to direct her outrage at the enemy rather than God during difficult times.
You’ll walk away with a new "legal" framework for the heavenly courtroom, understanding how to partner with God to see His will established in your life and the lives of your children.

When spiritual authority crosses into control, how do you recognize it—and why is it so hard to name while you're inside it?
In this special edition of the Praying Christian Women podcast, Jaime and Alana take a break from the usual Prayer Through the Psalms series to share a deeply personal interview from their true crime podcast series, Christian True-Crime Junkies.
Coinciding with Spiritual Abuse Awareness Month, this is Part 1 of a 3-part conversation exploring Alana's harrowing experience in a Christian cult during her college years—a story she is sharing in depth for the first time.
What began as a faith community rooted in belonging and purpose slowly revealed patterns of manipulation, control, and spiritual abuse. Through Alana's firsthand account, we unpack how high-control religious environments form, why intelligent and faith-seeking young adults are especially vulnerable, and how Scripture, obedience, and "submission" can be weaponized to silence questions and override personal discernment.
Whether you have experienced spiritual abuse yourself or simply want to protect your loved ones, we hope you'll join us as we learn to distinguish between a healthy church and a high-control group, ultimately pointing us back to the safety and freedom found in a genuine relationship with Jesus.
NOTE: Part 2 of this conversation will air on Tuesday, 1/20 on the Christian True-Crime Junkies! podcast, with Part 3 to follow!

Letting go of our children isn’t a one-time event; it’s a lifelong process that begins the moment the umbilical cord is cut.
Catherine Segars, host of the Christian Parent, Crazy World podcast, joins us this week to discuss the delicate and often difficult transition of releasing our children into the world, biblically and prayerfully.
In our conversation, Catherine breaks down the four distinct phases of parenting—Caregiver, Cop, Coach, and Counselor—and warns of the friction that occurs when we try to parent our children from the wrong phase. Jaime unpacks a powerful insight from John 17, illustrating how Jesus modeled healthy detachment by praying for His disciples’ protection from the evil one rather than their removal from the world.
You won’t want to miss this empowering episode highlighting the spiritual authority parents hold over what they have "authored," and powerful encouragement that it is never too late to impact your child’s life through prayer—even if they are currently in a prodigal season.

What if the spiritual battles you face aren't meant to be fought with your own strength? What if the obstacles in your life—whether they be fears, anxieties, or spiritual attacks—are actually terrified of the One who stands beside you?
In this empowering devotional on Psalm 48, we explore the awe-inspiring imagery of Mount Zion—the city where God makes Himself known as a stronghold. We move beyond the text to uncover the fascinating historical context of the Roman "Helmet of Salvation," discovering how a soldier’s crest was more than decoration; it was a declaration of ownership and intimidating power. We learn that when we stand firm in our identity, the enemy doesn't just see us; he sees the entire Kingdom of God backing us.
Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of deep encouragement and spiritual strengthening. If you’ve felt defeated by the start of the year or overwhelmed by invisible battles, this episode offers a fresh perspective on your victory in Christ. Come ready to "put on" your salvation, stand firm in the City of God, and watch the enemy flee.

Are you ready to reset your prayer life for 2026? In this candid New Year’s episode, Alana and Jaime invite you to look beyond standard resolutions and identify the subtle habits that might be hindering your connection with God. Instead of a guilt-inducing list of "don'ts," the hosts offer a grace-filled conversation about lifestyle and spiritual hurdles—from the trap of "prayer procrastination" caused by shame to the mental toll of constant noise and input.
Drawing from Romans 12:2, they explore how renewing your mind isn't just about spiritual discipline, but also about protecting your mental energy and physical health. Alana and Jaime get vulnerable about their own struggles, discussing everything from the impact of decision fatigue and poor sleep hygiene to the danger of coasting on past Bible knowledge. They challenge the modern tendency to fill every quiet moment with media, encouraging listeners to embrace silence and intentional scheduling to create "white space" for the Holy Spirit.
Whether you are battling negative self-talk or simply need better boundaries with your phone at bedtime, this episode offers practical, non-judgmental encouragement. Tune in to discover how treating your body as a "partner in ministry" and making small tweaks in your routine can lead to spiritual breakthroughs, reminding us that God isn't looking for perfection—He is simply waiting to welcome you home with open arms this New Year.

What if the best New Year devotion isn't about making perfect resolutions, but resting in the God who reigns over our imperfections? What if the "snags" of the holiday season are actually invitations to begin your New Year prayer journey by gazing at the One who sits on the throne?

We discover that meditating on God’s majesty provides a necessary spiritual reset, shrinking the severity of our struggles and putting them into biblical perspective. As we transition from the busyness of Christmas into the unknown of the coming months, this episode reminds us that God is the Redeemer who makes a way.
Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a time of encouragement, New Year’s Eve prayer, and renewal.
