  384 | Seven Deadly Sins: How Pride Distorts Your Identity (and How to Reclaim It in Christ) 16.09.2026 16мин

  Comparison doesn't reveal your worth. It only distracts you from the One who gave it to you. Pride rarely announces itself with arrogance. More often, it quietly slips into our hearts through comparison, self-reliance, and the subtle belief that our value is something we have to earn or prove. In this episode, Angie opens Proverbs 16:18 to explore how pride distorts our identity, why it leads us away from God's wisdom, and how true freedom is found when we release self-exaltation and remember...

  383 | Seven Deadly Sins: Why We Feel Stuck (and How Freedom Begins) 09.09.2026 24мин

  Christ didn't set you free just to remove your chains. He set you free so you could live differently. It's surprisingly easy to grow comfortable with the things that keep us bound. But Galatians reminds us that true freedom isn't earned through rules or striving, but rather is found in Christ and lived out by walking closely with Him. In this episode, Angie explores Galatians 5:1, unpacking what it means to live in the freedom Christ purchased for us. You'll discover how subtle patterns can q...

  382 | Looking Back, I Can See It Now with Natalie Hixson 02.09.2026 45мин

  Sometimes the clearest picture of God's work only comes when you look back. In the middle of a difficult season, it's often impossible to see what God is doing.

In this encouraging conversation, Angie welcomes back Christian life coach and author Natalie Hixson to share the story behind her new book, Lord, Why Did You Give Me These Children? Together, Angie and Natalie discuss shame, healing, ...

  381 | Small Choices, Big Direction: What Proverbs Shows Us About the Life We’re Building 26.08.2026 14мин

  Big life change rarely begins with one big decision. It begins with one small, faithful choice. It's easy to believe our daily decisions don't matter very much. But Proverbs reminds us that the direction of our lives is shaped far more by ordinary, repeated choices than by dramatic moments. In this episode, Angie begins a brand-new series from her upcoming Bible study, The Path to Freedom, by exploring Proverbs 1:7. This conversation invites us to consider how the fear of the Lord becomes the...

  380 | Talk to Your Triggers: Repeating the Rhythm of Trust 19.08.2026 17мин

  The rhythm of peace isn't found in carrying more. Anxiety has a way of convincing us that if we don't hold everything together, everything will fall apart. But God never asked us to carry what He has already promised to carry Himself. In this episode, Angie concludes the Cast Your Cares study and the Talk to Your Triggers series by exploring Isaiah 46:4. This conversation reminds us that peace isn't achieved by trying harder, but instead is found by repeatedly returning our fears, worries, an...

  379 | Talk to Your Triggers: Receiving Peace That Settles Your Soul 12.08.2026 15мин

  Peace is something we receive from Christ, not something we manufacture. When anxiety rises, our instinct is often to work harder, worry more, or search for a way to regain control. But Jesus reminds us that peace is not found in our circumstances; it's found in His presence. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study and the Talk to Your Triggers framework by stepping into John 14:27 and the fourth "R": Receive. This conversation reminds us that even when our hearts are troub...

  378 | Talk to Your Triggers: Remembering God's Faithful Presence 05.08.2026 15мин

  Remembering God's faithfulness changes how we walk through fear. When anxiety shows up, it often isn't because we don't know what's true. It's because we've forgotten what we already know about God's character. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by stepping into Psalm 36:5 and the third step of the Talk to Your Triggers framework: Remember. This conversation reminds us that peace often begins when we intentionally remember the faithfulness, love, and reliability of God...

  377 | Talk to Your Triggers: Revealing the Lie Beneath the Fear 29.07.2026 16мин

  Darkness cannot overcome the light. Sometimes anxiety is not only connected to what is happening around us. Sometimes it is connected to what is happening underneath our reactions, such as hidden assumptions or beliefs we have unknowingly accepted as true. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by stepping into John 1:5 and the second step of the "Talk to Your Triggers" framework. What you'll hear in this week's episode What it means to reveal the lie beneath the fearWhy ...

  376 | Talk to Your Triggers: Recognizing Your Inner Alarm 22.07.2026 16мин

  Recognizing anxiety begins with recognizing what’s happening underneath it. So often, our anxious reactions feel sudden and unexplained. But beneath the surface, they are often connected to fears, wounds, beliefs, or patterns we may not even realize are shaping our responses. In this episode, Angie begins the five-part "Talk to Your Triggers" framework by stepping into Psalm 139:23. This conversation reminds us that peace starts with honesty before God and the courage to invite Him to search ...

  375 | Why Small Steps in Bible Study Still Count 15.07.2026 10мин

  Confidence in Bible study doesn’t come from mastering everything at once. It grows through small, faithful steps over time. So often, we expect ourselves to immediately understand Scripture in a way we would never expect with any other skill. When confidence doesn’t come quickly, it’s easy to feel intimidated, discouraged, or spiritually behind. In this episode, Angie steps away briefly from the Cast Your Cares series and dives into Zechariah 4:10. This conversation is a reminder that growth ...

  374 | 3 Obstacles to Bible Study and How to Overcome Them 08.07.2026 12мин

  Most women don’t avoid Bible study because they don’t love God. Often, something just feels in the way. Fear, overwhelm, insecurity, and even the vulnerability of being known by God can quietly keep us from opening Scripture consistently. But what if Bible study was never meant to feel like a performance? What if confidence in God’s Word grows slowly? In this episode, Angie pauses the Cast Your Cares series for a heartfelt conversation about three common obstacles that keep women from studyin...

  373 | Resting in God’s Love When You Feel Overwhelmed 01.07.2026 17мин

  God’s love isn’t hidden from you. It’s already been declared over your life. When life feels overwhelming, one of the first things we begin to question is whether God sees us, cares for us, or is still near. Anxiety grows louder in uncertainty. But in this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by guiding us through Song of Songs 2:4, which is a beautiful reminder that God’s love is a banner over your life, inviting you to stop striving for reassurance and begin resting in what He...

  372 | Letting Go of Control and Learning to Trust God 24.06.2026 15мин

  Peace isn’t found in gripping tighter. It’s found in learning to let go and trust God. So often, what we call responsibility or being prepared is really a quiet reliance on ourselves. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by stepping into James 4:10. This conversation reminds us that humility is not weakness. It’s the deliberate choice to release self-reliance and come under God’s loving authority. What you’ll hear in this week’s episode What it truly means to humb...
• 
  371 | Afraid to Speak Up? How to Be Bold in Your Faith 17.06.2026 14мин

  Boldness isn’t about feeling ready. It’s about trusting God enough to move forward anyway. So often, we choose what feels comfortable over what God is prompting us to do. In reality, it may be fear quietly keeping us from obedience. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by stepping into 1 Thessalonians 2:2. This conversation reminds us that boldness doesn’t come from within us, but instead, is given by God. What you’ll hear in this week’s episode What it means to b...

  370 | Calming Your Mind and Finding Peace in God 10.06.2026 16мин

  Peace isn’t something you have to chase; it’s something you learn to rest in. So often, when life feels uncertain, we find ourselves searching… thinking harder, praying differently, looking for signs that will finally help us settle down. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by stepping into Psalm 131:2. This conversation invites us to move from frantic searching to quiet trust as we grow in faith and learn that God is already near, already at work, and fully able to pro...

  369 | Will God Let Me Fall? 03.06.2026 15мин

  368 | What Pressure Reveals About Our Faith 27.05.2026 14мин

  What pressure reveals doesn’t have to define you; it can remind you what’s true. When pressure rises, it has a way of exposing what we believe. Fear, accusation, and doubt can feel loud and convincing, making it seem like what we’re facing has more power than it actually does. In this episode, Angie continues the Cast Your Cares study by stepping into Revelation 12:11. This conversation reminds us that the enemy’s accusations don’t have the final say because the victory has already been won t...

  367 | Letting Go of What You Were Never Meant to Carry 20.05.2026 13мин

  You don’t have to carry what God never asked you to hold. So often, we carry more than we realize: responsibilities, expectations, decisions, and the quiet weight of anxiety that builds over time.

What you’ll hear in this week’s episode Why we often carry more than we were meant to holdWha...

  366 | Anxiety and the Christian Life 13.05.2026 13мин

  God’s grace meets us right in the middle of our anxiety. Anxiety is one of the most common struggles we face, and within the Christian life, it can feel especially complicated. In this episode, Angie begins a new conversation on anxiety and faith, rooted in 2 Corinthians 12:9. Through personal story and Scripture, we’re reminded that anxiety is not something we have to hide or overcome on our own; it’s an invitation to bring our weakness to God and receive His strength. What you’ll hea...

  365 | Promises for New Seasons 06.05.2026 8мин

  When someone we love steps into a new season, sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pray. Transitions, whether joyful or difficult, often leave us searching for the right words. In those moments, Scripture gives us a place to anchor our hearts and lift the people we love to God with confidence. In this episode, Angie shares a deeply personal moment as her son prepares to graduate from college and step into the next chapter of his life. Rooted in 2 Chronicles 20:12, this conversation ...
