Christian Mentor, Bible Teacher, Speaker, Women’s ministry leader, mom to 3, and Grammy to 7 sweet babies who are the light of my life. I see you and I get you, because I’ve been there. As a young wife it was important to me to have a strong, loving marriage, but I didn’t come from a Christian home so there was no example to follow for how to achieve that. All I knew was that I wanted a better marriage and family life than what I grew up in. Over the years the Lord has taught me how to find biblical answers to life’s questions in His Word and to rely on His wisdom, not the world’s for guidance and direction in my life. When we know His Word and apply it to our lives, then we will truly have peace as we trust our Heavenly Father for our marriages. This is what living out our faith is all about and it can bring you to new heights, life changing experiences, and amazing blessings in your life that you thank God for everyday. He did it for me and He wants to do it for you. Are you ready for it? Then grab some coffee, pull up a chair next to mine and let’s get started!

Divorce has become a common occurrence in our society, with an estimated 45% of marriages ending in divorce. Even among believers, marriages not only end due to infidelity, but because of financial struggles, lack of commitment and unmet expectations. But what does the Bible say about divorce? Does God really lead some people to leave their spouse? We’re looking at God’s view of marriage and divorce today, as well as what can help us keep the commitment we’ve made to our husbands.

Because of the way our world is today with being careful to look out for ourselves and the desire to be independent. Some women can be afraid to follow God’s calling of becoming a submissive wife. They feel it means they are less worthy, will lose their identity, or merely live in their husband's shadow.
Today we’re ending those fears as we take a look at how following our God-given roles and responsibilities, is not only a part of who we are in Christ, but gives us direction and purpose.

Today, we’re looking at the one weapon God has given us to fight back with, a commandment, and a warning, to help us in our battle. Join me as we finish up our series today.

Ladies, the enemy is real, the battle is real, and the fight is for your marriage! We don’t see him, but he is there. Poking and prodding to cause doubts about God and friction in our marriages. When I finally learned about satan and his tactics, it changed everything.
God warns us of the enemy and provides for us His full armor to fight the spiritual battles in our lives. And ladies, we need it! We need to know who this enemy is, what his tactics are, what our armor looks like and how to use it!

We all have things that we've done or said in our past, that we are not particularly proud of. Even though we've asked the Lord for forgiveness, they still seem to crop up in our minds, causing us to doubt our faith, if we're truly forgiven and who we are in Christ.
We walk around with feelings of guilt from our past that affect our thoughts and emotions and puts a strain on our relationships with our husband, kids, family, and friends. We know in our hearts that the Lord has forgiven us, but our mind can’t seem to let it go.
Today, we’re chatting about God‘s forgiveness, the enemies role in not letting us move past our mistakes, and how to be free from guilt once and for all.

We all come into a marriage with preconceived notions as to what it will be like. What our daily lives will be like, how our husbands love us, etc.
However somewhere along the line, we realize that our expectations are not being met. Our husband doesn't show the love we desire and we wonder why and how to change it.
Today we’re chatting about where our expectations come from. What God's expectations are for husbands and wives, and how this can lead your husband to show the love you desire.
Let’s get started.

Many couples who have been married a while ask, why does marriage have to be so hard? Why does it feel like such work and is it worth it?
Marriage can be difficult, as you take two people, from different backgrounds and throw them together into one house, 24/7 to essentially duke out their differences. It’s no wonder that some find their marriage to be a struggle in the beginning.
Some marriages seem to get stuck here and the struggles go on for years. Leading to either a miserable marriage or divorce.
Today I’m sharing what I learned during those years. Why it’s hard, why the process is necessary and some tips to make it a little easier.
Let’s get started.

APPLICATION QUESTIONS:
When you look back over the past 5 years do you see spiritual growth in your life? Why or why not? What is holding you back, what do you need to change so you can begin to grow?
Are you pursuing sound biblical doctrine? How is the preaching at your church? Are you being taught passages of scripture or is the Bible barely opened during the service? What about your Bible study, books you are reading or podcast you are listening to? Is what is being taught based on biblical principles or someone’s opinion on the subject
How’s your faith? Are you trusting in God or self? Do you trust the Lord to be faithful and that He alone has the wisdom that can truly change your life?
Where does your power to change come from? Do you think that if you work hard enough you can do by yourself? Or when you are weak, do you rely on the power God to work in your life?
