160 | Why God Doesn't Need Your Hustle: Learning to Rest in Him Oct 11, 2025

Show notes

What if God can do more without your hustle than with it? Lisa Fields of the Jude 3 Project shares her journey from workaholic apologist to discovering that God doesn't need our striving—He wants our trust, our healed hearts, and our willingness to rest in His sufficiency.

💡 Key Scripture: "Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders' labor is in vain... He grants sleep to those he loves." - Psalm 127:1-2

The Big Truth: God doesn't need your hustle. Rest isn't avoidance or vacation—it's a posture of complete trust in God. When we truly rest in Him, He does what our striving never could, without the soul-damaging side effects.

📖 Resources Mentioned: Book: "When Faith Disappoints: The Gap Between What We Believe and What We Experience" by Lisa Fields "Ruthless Elimination of Hurry" by John Mark Comer "Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day-to-Day Devotional" Centering Prayer app

💭 Reflection Questions: Are you so busy doing God's work that you're not meeting with God? What "dead grass" has been buried in your heart while you kept moving? Do you like being the hero? What does that feed in your insecurity? Can you sleep in peace, or is it just avoidance? What would it look like to trust God enough to rest?

⏰ Practical Steps to Rest: Daily Silence: Start with centering prayer (work up to 30 min/day) Weekly Sabbath: Take one full day off - it's commanded, not optional Community: Let your friends be your friends (get off the pedestal) Healing: Let God show you your heart and do the work of healing

159 | Carry The Gospel: How One Conversation Changed Everything Sep 27, 2025

Show notes

This incredible testimony from Verity Conference 2024 will transform how you think about everyday evangelism. Leila shares her powerful story from Muslim family to Christian ministry, and reveals the four practical ways we can all carry God's Kingdom into our daily lives.

Four Ways to Carry the Kingdom:

- Pursue Kingdom Priorities - Aligning your agenda with heaven's agenda

- Possess Kingdom Mysteries - Bringing "kingdom souvenirs" to others

- Assume Kingdom Posture - Childlike faith and dependence on God

- Release Kingdom Power - Holy Spirit power through everyday conversations

The Dentist Story: How a simple conversation during a dental appointment led to a complete life transformation - from curious patient to worship team member in under a year.

Key Scripture: Acts 17:6-7 - "These men who have turned the world upside down"

🎥 About This Session: From Verity Conference 2024 featuring Leila, who traveled from Australia to Northern Michigan. She represents the diversity we seek - different backgrounds, marital status, and cultural perspectives that show how the Gospel applies across all walks of life.

💭 Discussion Questions: What Kingdom priorities need to align in your life? How can you start "kingdom conversations" naturally? Who in your world is waiting for the Gospel? This session proves that carrying God's Kingdom isn't about big platforms - it's about faithful conversations in dentist chairs, neighborhoods, and everyday encounters.

158 | Speak Your Story: How Your Testimony Changes the World Sep 20, 2025

Show notes

This powerful conference session connects directly to our previous episode about our 5-month podcast break. While the last episode shared the "happy ending" of our infertility journey with baby Olivera's birth, this session was recorded in the middle of that same story - during failed fertility treatments with no promise of resolution.

In This Session:

The demon-possessed man's story from Mark 5
Why Jesus intentionally enters our broken stories
How sharing your story defeats the enemy

Breaking through 4 lies that keep us silent:

"My story is insignificant" → Your story has IMPACT
"My story is a trigger" → Your story TRANSFORMS
"My story is intimidating" → Your story is INTIMATE
"My story needs a happy ending" → Your story proclaims God's goodness NOW

The Connection: This session shows what it looks like to live out faith in real time during trials, before knowing how God will answer our prayers. It's the theological foundation for everything we shared in our previous episode about living out theology in pain.

📖 Scripture Focus: Mark 5:1-20 - The healing of the demon-possessed man

💭 Discussion Questions: What story is God calling you to share? Which of the 4 lies resonates most with you? How can unfinished stories still glorify God?

Note: This session discusses miscarriage, infertility, and child safety concerns. Viewer discretion advised.

157 | Living Out Theology in Pain: The Real Story Behind Our 5 Month Break Sep 13, 2025

Show notes

After an unexpected 5-month podcast break, we're back with our most vulnerable episode yet. While Every Woman A Theologian kept going, we had to pause the podcast to navigate some of life's biggest challenges. What does it look like to live out theology in the middle of pain and difficulty? Here's the real story of why we stepped back from podcasting and how we've had to practice what we preach in our darkest moments.

In This Episode:

Living Out Theology in Real Life
Why we paused the podcast
Walking through secondary infertility and loss
Balancing ministry travel with family crisis
A prophetic dream that sustained our faith
Getting ready to meet our miracle baby
The ministry work that continued behind the scenes

🙏 Prayer Requests: Pray for baby Olivera as we welcome her into our family, and for wisdom as we navigate this new season of ministry.

📅 What's Coming:

Verity Conference 2024 session reruns
Verity Conference 2025: October 3-4 (online)
Returning to Ancient Heresies podcast series
New 2026 series (we want your input!)

155 | Do Christians Need to Obey Old Testament Law? Mar 22, 2025

Show notes

Salvation is found through faith in Jesus Christ alone—a truth that stands in contrast to a growing movement in the West of “Torah Observant Christians” who argue that Gentile believers must follow Old Testament laws to secure salvation. Phylicia, however, emphasizes a key distinction: while Jewish Christians may observe these laws as part of their cultural heritage and historical connection, such practices are not necessary for salvation. ————————————————
