| 507 Praying Through Psalms 70: When You Need God to Hurry! | 04 Nov 2026 | 00:11:57 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a timely and encouraging devotional on Psalm 70, a short, punchy chapter that gives us biblical permission to cut straight to the chase and cry out for God’s immediate rescue. Acting as an urgent, standalone remix of the final verses of Psalm 40—much like singing the powerful chorus of a song on repeat—Psalm 70 strips away the formalities of structured prayer formats when crisis hits. Jaime explores the fascinating shift in Hebrew language within this passage, where David calls upon both Elohim—the mighty Creator who brings order out of chaos—and Yahweh—the deeply personal, covenant-keeping Father who knows His children by name. Addressing the common fear that repeatedly begging God to hurry demonstrates a lack of faith, Jaime contrasts the beauty of persistent prayer against the danger of taking matters into our own hands like Abram and Sarai. She reminds us that just like the persistent widow in the Gospels, knocking urgently on heaven's door is actually what keeps us anchored in trust rather than scrambling to force our own solutions. Come ready to lay down your most time-sensitive burdens—the pressing crises, the relentless opposition, and the desperate moments where you feel like time is running out. Let this episode remind you that crying out "Lord, do not delay!" is not an act of doubt, but an invitation for our Deliverer to step into your chaos. Because He is both the sovereign Creator of the universe and a loving Father who hears your urgent cries, who guards you from stumbling into your own fixes, and whose perfect timing will never fail those who seek Him.

| 506 Here I Raise My Ebenezer: Creating Tangible Reminders of God’s Faithfulness | 02 Nov 2026 | 00:38:56 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Jaime and Alana explore the biblical concept of raising an “Ebenezer”—a tangible monument or stone of help that declares, “Thus far the Lord has helped us.” While it’s easy to experience an answered prayer or a miraculous breakthrough and quickly move on to putting out the next fire, Scripture repeatedly shows God’s people setting up physical memorials to remember what He has done. The co-hosts unpack the stories of Samuel’s stone of help and the twelve polished stones pulled from the Jordan River, looking at how tangible reminders not only anchor our own faith during hard seasons, but also serve as natural conversation starters to pass our testimonies down to our children. Through personal stories and everyday examples—from prayer journals, Christmas ornaments, and cross-country bibs to writing Bible verses on bare concrete floors after an Alaskan earthquake—Jaime and Alana share practical ways to create spiritual mileposts in your own home. Alana addresses the tension between celebrating accomplishments and false humility, while Jaime reflects on using physical prompts to persevere in prayer, intentional family reflection, and even the question of whether tattoos can serve as modern-day Ebenezers. Together, they encourage us to surround ourselves with reminders of God’s goodness so we never forget how far He has brought us. Whether you’re looking for creative ways to share your faith story with your kids, needing encouragement to trust God with a new obstacle, or wanting to build a habit of reflection and gratitude, we hope this episode inspires you to look back on God’s faithfulness with fresh eyes and confidence for the road ahead.

| 505 Praying Through Psalms 69: When the Waters Are Up to Your Neck! | 29 Oct 2026 | 00:21:15 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a deeply comforting and raw devotional on Psalm 69, a powerful chapter that meets us in our lowest moments of panic and anxiety, while pointing us toward the ultimate hope of our Redeemer. Drawing from a vivid, real-life illustration of Alaska’s treacherous glacial mudflats and rapidly rushing bore tides, Jaime paints an unforgettable picture of what David meant when he cried out that the waters had risen to his neck with no foothold in sight. She explores how David’s desperate pleas give us permission to bring our own untidy, raw, and seemingly hopeless emotions directly to the throne of grace, reminding us that authenticity and trust go hand in hand when we are straining our eyes waiting for God to move. Along the way, we see how David’s deep distress foreshadows the suffering of Jesus on the cross, and Jaime thoughtfully unpacks the challenging concept of "imprecatory prayers"—those jarring verses where David calls down God’s wrath upon his adversaries. Through the lens of New Testament grace, she offers wise, practical perspective on shifting our focus away from flesh-and-blood enemies to recognize the true spiritual battle against the principalities of darkness. Come ready to lay down your deepest anxieties—the exhausting false accusations, the overwhelming debts, and the situations threatening to swallow you whole. Let this episode remind you that our Savior is bigger than the fiercest tides working against you. Because He is a God who hears the needy, who lifts our feet out of the suffocating silt to set us securely on high, and whose redeeming power can turn even the very seas that threatened to drown us into a chorus of praise for His glory.

| 503 Coffee Break: World Peace or Christ’s Return: What Should We Pray For? | 20 Oct 2026 | 00:31:18 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a complex theological question that has puzzled believers for generations: Should we pray for world peace, or should we pray to hasten Christ’s return? When end-times prophecies point toward tribulation, war, and global turmoil, it can be easy to grow passive in our prayers—or worse, assume that global suffering is necessary to speed up Jesus’ second coming. The co-hosts explore how popular culture and competing eschatological views can shape our prayer lives, and why trying to orchestrate the fulfillment of prophecy can lead our hearts and motivations astray. Through honest reflection, biblical wisdom, and a memorable story about Alaskan fireweed, Jaime and Alana discuss the tension between longing for heaven and loving a hurting world right now. Alana shares how the Lord’s Prayer guides us to ask for God's mercy and peace in the midst of suffering rather than wishing for hardship, while Jaime reflects on viewing the timing of Christ’s return through the lens of God’s grace—and why we should never place our ultimate hope in secular or political systems to manufacture a human-led utopia. Together, they encourage us to fix our eyes on Jesus and remain faithful to the work He has given us today, rather than getting lost in the weeds of end-times timelines. Whether you’re fascinated by the book of Revelation, feeling overwhelmed by global conflict, or simply wondering how to pray for a broken world, we hope this episode brings you clarity, peace, and a renewed heart to be salt and light until He comes again.

| 501 Coffee Break: Why Does God Answer Other People’s Prayers, but Not Mine? | 09 Oct 2026 | 00:26:50 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a deeply personal question that can leave us feeling overlooked, discouraged, and afraid to ask what’s really on our hearts: Does God love me less? When someone else celebrates a miraculous healing or shares another incredible answer to prayer, it can be difficult to rejoice while you’re still waiting—or grieving an outcome you never wanted. The co-hosts explore how hearing only the highlights of other people’s prayer lives can shape our perception of God’s work, and how comparison can cause us to overlook the ways He is already providing for us. Through personal stories of answered prayer and painful loss, Jaime and Alana discuss the temptation to blame God, ourselves, or others when our prayers have different outcomes. Jaime shares how keeping a prayer journal helped her recognize God’s work in her life, while Alana offers a simple practice for building gratitude into everyday moments. They also explore how to share testimonies with compassion, celebrating what God has done without suggesting that a particular outcome is guaranteed if we just pray hard enough. Together, they encourage us to bring our jealousy, disappointment, and unanswered questions honestly to God, while making room for both gratitude and grief. Whether you’re struggling to celebrate someone else’s blessing, wondering why your own prayers seem unanswered, or looking for a more sensitive way to share your story, we hope this episode brings you comfort, fresh perspective, and reassurance that a different answer to prayer does not mean you are less loved.

| 500 Coffee Break: Prayer, Perseverance & Processing God's "No" | 28 Sep 2026 | 00:34:38 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle one of the most difficult and painful questions in a believer's prayer life: dealing with unanswered prayers. The co-hosts dive deep into the theology of prayer disappointment, addressing the tension between the biblical promises that "God will give you whatever you ask" and the very real human experience of devastating loss. Jaime shares a deeply personal story about praying for the miraculous healing of a dear friend with cancer, while Alana unpacks the concept of the "prayer behind the prayer"—how the Holy Spirit translates our specific requests into God's perfect will for us. Together, they explore the three ways God often redirects our prayer burdens: putting a block in our spirit, diverting our focus to a new prayer, or preparing our hearts to accept a different answer. Whether you are feeling "prayed out," wrestling with a long-term burden, or simply needing someone to hold up your arms like Moses, we hope this episode brings you comfort, fresh perspective, and the courage to bring your most raw emotions to the Lord.

| 499 Coffee Break: Faith, Fatalism & Finding Your Keys | 21 Sep 2026 | 00:25:20 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a fascinating listener question: The co-hosts explore how personality types (like being a natural "activator") play a huge role in how we approach this balance. Jaime shares a remarkable story about finding a lost bolt in the garage after stopping to pray, as well as her current journey of blending practical parenting strategies with fervent prayer. Meanwhile, Alana unpacks how genuine prayer actually engages our subconscious and prompts us to action, whether we are praying for weight loss, lost items, or big life decisions. With a bit of laughter, they also admit that there actually might be a wrong way to pray: using it as a spiritual "post-it note" to avoid taking necessary action.

| 498 Should I Pray or Should I Go? Finding the Balance Between Prayer and Evangelism | 14 Sep 2026 | 00:35:17 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Have you ever felt guilty for not sharing the gospel with every stranger you meet, or wondered if "just praying" for someone is an excuse to avoid an awkward conversation? This week, Alana and Jaime dive into an honest and thought-provoking conversation on the complex intersection of evangelism, prayer, and how to authentically share your faith without feeling like a phony. In this episode, Jaime shares a fascinating story about self-proclaimed atheist Penn Jillette (of the magic duo Penn & Teller) receiving a pocket New Testament from a fan—and how that respectful, grounded encounter left a surprisingly positive impression on him. Together, Alana and Jaime unpack the tension between the fear of forced, awkward "cold-call" evangelism and the spiritual danger of using our introverted personalities as an excuse to never share the good news. Alana and Jaime also tackle the profound beauty of discovering your unique "witnessing persona." Drawing inspiration from the quiet, relationship-building approach of the biblical Andrew versus the loud, upfront preaching of Peter, they explain why God has equipped you to share Jesus in a way that perfectly fits your specific design, gifting, and emotional intelligence. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on how to trust the Holy Spirit's timing, a practical journaling exercise to help you uncover the most effective way you can reach unbelievers, and the beautiful freedom of knowing you don't have to fit a specific mold to be used by God.

| 497 Can Secular Music Point Us to God? Our Tribute to Dolly Parton | 31 Aug 2026 | 00:39:44 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Have you ever wondered if it’s possible to worship God using a secular song, or if only Christian music can be used for prayer? This week, Alana and Jaime pay a heartfelt tribute to the late, great Dolly Parton, diving into a thought-provoking conversation on how to find the Holy Spirit in unexpected places—and how everyday music can become a powerful template for worship. In this episode, Alana and Jaime tackle the artificial divide between "sacred" and "secular" media that many Christians grew up with. They unpack the idea that if a song isn't promoting sin, it has the potential to draw us closer to the Lord, because we are called to do everything for His glory. They explain why taking pleasure in the beautiful, ordinary aspects of the human experience honors God's design for creativity, and why songs about family, unity, and love are deeply biblical. Jaime reflects on the spiritual themes in Dolly's "Coat of Many Colors" and shares a touching story about a crocheted prayer shawl given to her stepmom, highlighting how we can infuse our everyday actions with love and prayer. Alana then walks step-by-step through her personal method of using a physical Bible concordance to turn the lyrics of Dolly's "Light of a Clear Blue Morning" into an interactive, spiritually enriching journey through Scripture. You’ll walk away with a fresh appreciation for Dolly's beautiful legacy, a reminder of the incredible freedom we have to find God in all things, and practical wisdom on how to make everything—even a catchy tune—a springboard for prayer.

| 496 Hearing God Without Putting Words in His Mouth | 27 Aug 2026 | 00:34:18 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! This week, Alana and Jaime dive into an honest and thought-provoking conversation on how to tell the difference between human intuition and Holy Spirit discernment—and why confusing the two can actually be dangerous. In this episode, Alana and Jaime tackle the all-too-common Christian habit of "over-spiritualizing" our personal choices. They unpack the spiritual danger of using the phrase "God told me" to justify our own desires, make excuses for being flaky, or shut down disagreements. They explain why making God the "fall guy" for our decisions or personality quirks can border on taking His name in vain, and why it's okay to just want things without putting a divine stamp on them! Jaime also shares the personal story of her family's move to Alaska, revealing how she used scripture to seek confirmation when she wasn't sure if the decision was driven by a personal desire or a divine calling. Together, they explore the beautiful truth that intuition is a God-given gift designed to protect and guide us, and why honoring your gut instincts (like sensing an unsafe situation) doesn't have to conflict with your faith. Come listen and you’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on the incredible freedom we have in Christ, a reminder of God's joyful and loving character, and practical wisdom on how to seek clarity when you aren't sure whose voice you're hearing.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Are your hormones a biological burden, or are they a beautiful reflection of God’s divine design? This week, Bekah Yawn, host of the For the Love of Hormones podcast, joins Jaime for a deeply encouraging conversation on redeeming the way we view our fertility, our cycles, and the changing seasons of a woman’s life. In this episode, Bekah shares her powerful personal testimony of spending 14 years on birth control, suffering through three back-to-back miscarriages, and how God used that heartbreak to lead her toward fertility awareness methods, functional hormone healing, and eventually, her "triple rainbow baby." She unpacks the physical realities of "Post-Birth Control Syndrome"—including its hidden impact on the thyroid and gut—and offers practical advice for women who want to understand their bodies' natural rhythms. Bekah also tackles the profound spiritual significance of our hormones, explaining how every phase of life uniquely reflects the image of God—from the creative awakening of menarche and the sustaining love of the reproductive years, to the transition into the wisdom-bearing years of perimenopause and menopause. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on the spiritual warfare surrounding female fertility, the beautiful truth that all women possess a God-given maternal capacity regardless of physical motherhood, and how to stop being a "silent partner" in your own healthcare. Visit bekahyawn.com to connect with Bekah, learn about her Fertility Framework program, and explore her doula services.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Is it frivolous—or even sinful—to pray for your child to score the winning goal or your favorite sports team to win? This week, Alana and Jaime share an engaging and refreshingly honest conversation about the realities of mixing sports, competition, and prayer as a believer. In this episode, Alana and Jaime explore the unique, often misunderstood, and complex challenges that Christian athletes, parents, and sports fans face. They open up about the controversial misuse of verses like Philippians 4:13 for athletic success, the fear of judgment from those who over-spiritualize everyday activities, and the profound struggle of trusting God when a fervently prayed-for victory turns into a tough defeat. They also unpack incredible insights on character that prove God can use our physical passions to cultivate godliness. From finding unexpected opportunities for ministry through a high school cross-country team to untangling competitive joy from selfish motives, this conversation highlights that whatever we do can be done for His glory. They also introduce powerful, practical ways to intentionally intercede for the athletes in your life—covering physical safety, emotional stamina, and spiritual growth—without turning prayer into a superstitious tug-of-war. You'll walk away inspired by their grounded faith, reminded that we can praise God just as deeply in a loss as in a win, and equipped with practical ways to support and pray for the athletes you love.

| 492 Prayer Lessons From Fiddler On the Roof | 20 Jul 2026 | 00:54:16 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this episode, Jaime and Alana take a 180-degree and head straight to Broadway. They dive into the concept of the musical theater "I want" song, using Tevye's famous track "If I Were a Rich Man" from Fiddler on the Roof as a surprisingly profound template for prayer. They discuss the danger of censoring our conversations with God, the freedom of bringing our most "frivolous" desires to Him, and how peeling back the layers of wanting money or status often reveals a pure, God-given need for security, respect, or peace. Alana highlights how teaching middle schoolers about Disney character motivations led her to realize that every superficial desire has a deeper "prayer behind the prayer." Meanwhile, Jaime gets remarkably candid about a recent camping trip, unpacking her own guilt over wanting to look good in a swimsuit and tracing it down to a beautiful, core desire to remain healthy, strong, and capable of caring for her family. Along the way, they swap practical wisdom on stripping away the "judgy Christian hat" that shames women for wanting a financial cushion, beautiful spaces, or basic human respect. From the reality of a mother's innate drive to provide, to Tevye's ultimate wish for simply having the time to sit and pray, they offer a refreshing perspective on approaching God exactly as you are—without pretending to be someone you aren't. Whether you are stressing over your bank account, feeling guilty for caring about your appearance, or simply longing for a more conversational, authentic relationship with the Lord, we hope this episode encourages you to stop editing your prayers, uncover the true desires of your heart, and confidently bring your uncensored self to the Father.

| 491 Praying Through Psalms 68: When God is Bigger Than Your Problems! | 13 Jul 2026 | 00:20:59 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for an inspiring devotional on Psalm 68, a triumphant and powerful psalm that celebrates the unmatched bigness of God and reminds us that no earthly enemy or obstacle stands a chance against Him. Jaime unpacks the subtle lies of the enemy that convince us our difficulties are either too monumental to conquer or too unspiritual for God's attention. Likening our burdens to fragile idols, she discusses how easily our biggest fears can be visualized as thick smoke blown away by the wind, or as little wax figurines melting away in the radiant, burning presence of the Almighty. Sharing her own transparent reflections as a parent, Jaime encourages us to intentionally bring every sorrow, question, and workplace complaint to a loving Heavenly Father who never measures or dismisses our pain. Just as the ancient world looked to the towering, imposing peaks of Mount Bashan—a symbol of spiritual rebellion—we are reminded that God often works in an "upside-down kingdom." He chose the humbler, smaller mountain of Zion for His holy abode, proving that our blessings and His presence don't rely on human definitions of greatness. Come ready to evaluate your own spiritual burdens—the deeply personal pain, the exhausting situational frustrations, and the looming giants standing in your way. Let this episode remind you that God is always waiting with open arms to carry your heavy load and give rest to the weary. Because He is a victorious God who rides through the deserts, who acts as a father to the fatherless, and whose immense power can melt away even the most intimidating strongholds in our lives.

| 490 Praying Through Psalms 67: Reconnecting to the True Vine! | 08 Jul 2026 | 00:19:10 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! What happens when the relentless treadmill of busyness slowly crimps your connection to the True Vine? Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a candid devotional on Psalm 67, a brief but powerful psalm that celebrates God's heart for every tribe and nation, and reminds us of our calling to reflect His glory to the ends of the earth. Jaime unpacks the subtle, spiritual dangers of our fast-paced, technology-driven world, exploring the uncomfortable reality that 'busyness' can become an idol that drains our energy and starves our souls. Likening our spiritual health to a wind-whipped grapevine, she discusses how easily we can become "crimped" and withered without even realizing we've been disconnected from our life source. Sharing her own transparent struggles with slowing down, Jaime encourages us to intentionally step off the daily grind and carve out sacred, meditative white space for God's Word. Just as the ancient Israelites were blessed so that all the earth might revere Him, we are reminded that our blessings—and our connection to the local body of Christ—are never meant to be kept in a self-contained survival pod, but poured out to bless the world. Come ready to evaluate your own spiritual branches—the places of hidden withering, the exhausting routines, and the moments when reading the Bible feels more like a chore than a lifeline. Let this episode remind you that God is always waiting with open arms to breathe fresh life into your fading embers. Because He is a gracious God whose face shines upon us, who guides the nations on the earth, and whose presence can revive even the driest, crunchiest parts of our faith.

| 489 When Church Leaders Fall: Finding Faith After Scandal | 29 Jun 2026 | 00:55:03 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Church hurt is something almost no one survives decades in the church without experiencing. Together they unpack why a pastor's affair can trigger a faith crisis in people who left the church years ago, why victims of clergy abuse are so often shunned while fallen leaders get protected, and what Gayle Haggard's memoir Why I Stayed reveals about loving the families caught in the wreckage. They get honest about the spectrum between a consensual affair and predatory abuse, why narcissists are so often drawn to ministry and church leadership, and the pattern of institutional and denominational failures—and cover-ups—that keeps surfacing across churches of every stripe. Alana also shares her hard-won take on spiritual "premonitions"—the God-given instinct that something is off—and why she believes those warnings are a call to pray, not proof you failed to act. Grounded in Ezekiel 34:2, the conversation lands on a grace-filled but clear-eyed question every church faces: how do we protect the flock from spiritual abuse while still extending real grace to imperfect people? Whether you're walking through church hurt right now, rebuilding after spiritual abuse, quietly deconstructing, or simply want to guard your heart against cynicism and bitterness, we hope this episode helps you grieve honestly, stay connected to God, and hold grace and wisdom in the very same hand.

| 488 Witchcraft Disguised as Prayer Part 3: Signs, Omens, and Fleeces | 22 Jun 2026 | 00:31:34 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this episode, Jaime and Alana dive into the nuanced—and sometimes confusing—topic of modern “witchy” trends, New Age language seeping into Christian self-help, and the age-old practice of seeking signs. They discuss the critical difference between earnestly seeking God’s guidance and relying on spiritual shortcuts or omens, exploring how to tease out what is biblical, what is evil, and what falls somewhere in between. Alana highlights the concept of “plundering the Egyptians”—taking what is useful from secular tools without adopting their faulty foundations—while warning against attributing divine power to our own subconscious desires. Meanwhile, Jaime opens up about the tension of making agonizing parenting decisions with her husband, Matt, and takes a deep dive into the biblical story of Gideon’s fleece. She questions whether Gideon’s demands were a wise test or a lack of faith, ultimately suggesting that God was simply meeting Gideon where he was, rather than providing a universal instruction manual for our own decisions. Along the way, they swap practical wisdom on navigating the gray areas of modern Christian discernment. From the surprisingly grounded trick of flipping a coin—not to let chance decide, but to bypass people-pleasing tendencies and reveal your true, underlying desires—to an honest look at historical practices like casting lots and "Bible roulette," they offer a discerning yet grace-filled perspective. They emphasize that with the Holy Spirit and the Bible, we already have exactly what we need to seek God's will, warning against the temptation to treat scripture like a Ouija board. Whether you are wrestling with a major life decision, trying to untangle cultural self-help from biblical truth, or simply need a reminder to listen to God's voice without demanding a supernatural sign, we hope this episode encourages you to lead with prayerful discernment, intentionality, and confident grace.

| 487 Praying Through Psalms 66: Through the Fire, Into Abundance! | 10 Jun 2026 | 00:19:46 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today!
Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 66 — Praise for God's Mighty Deeds and His Answer to Prayer — a psalm of profound remembrance that celebrates God as both our miraculous rescuer and our master refiner. Jaime unpacks the challenging, yet beautiful tension found in this passage, exploring the uncomfortable reality that sometimes God purposefully brings His people "into the net." Likening our deepest trials to the precise, careful process of refining silver, she discusses how the heat of our circumstances is used to draw out impurities—never to consume us, but to purify us. Sharing her candid reflections on the difference between suffering the natural consequences of a fallen world versus enduring a purposeful season of testing, Jaime encourages us to set up "Ebenezer" monuments of memory. Just as God turned the sea into dry land for the Israelites, we can look back on His unmistakable past faithfulness to find the courage to trust Him today. Come ready to look at your own current struggles—the places of pain, the feeling of being trapped, and the moments when you aren't entirely sure why you're suffering. Let this psalm remind you that your pain is never wasted and that you can borrow the psalmist's faith when your own feels weak. Because He is a God who eventually brings us out into a place of abundance, who listens to the cries of our hearts, and who will never turn away your prayer or withhold His lovingkindness from you.

| 486 Witchcraft Disguised as Prayer Part 2: Should Christians read Harry Potter (and how do you decide?) | 08 Jun 2026 | 00:41:23 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this episode, Jaime and Alana dive into the nuanced—and sometimes controversial—topic of navigating Halloween, fantasy media, and cultural traditions as Christians. They discuss the critical difference between setting healthy spiritual boundaries and letting “religious default settings” or fear-based superstition dictate our choices, exploring why treating pop culture with extreme suspicion can sometimes do more harm than good. Alana highlights the historical weaponization of the word “witch” by old-school religious establishments to silence women and control spiritual independence, sparking a deeper conversation about how we label things as “evil” without thoughtful examination. Meanwhile, she opens up about her own attempt to watch Harry Potter as an adult and the surprising “nocebo” effect—how deeply ingrained beliefs that something is spiritually dangerous can trigger real spiritual and emotional unease—showing how our upbringing can shape our reactions even when we intellectually know better. Jaime shares her evolving perspective on allowing her children to engage with the series, moving from a more permissive stance to a greater awareness of potential spiritual “open doors,” while still rejecting blanket outrage in favor of Holy Spirit-led discernment. Along the way, they swap practical wisdom on navigating the gray areas of modern Christian parenting and culture. From the beautiful analogy of treating young children like delicate seedlings that need extra protection while older ones must develop resilience through measured exposure, to an eye-opening experience at an Alaska Native Heritage Center, to their kids’ own self-censoring decisions with Percy Jackson and Coco, they offer a discerning yet grace-filled perspective. They emphasize the importance of teaching our children how to think biblically for themselves rather than simply handing down rigid rules, and they guard against the easy temptation to judge other believers who reach different conclusions. Whether you are wrestling with what media to allow in your home, trying to break free from the fear-based religious environment you grew up in, or simply need a reminder to seek God’s specific wisdom for your family instead of defaulting to either permissiveness or paranoia, we hope this episode encourages you to lead with prayerful discernment, intentionality, and confident grace.

| 485 Praying Through Psalm 65: The Overflowing Goodness of God | 01 Jun 2026 | 00:19:17 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 65 — God’s Abundant Favor to Earth and Man — a psalm that speaks directly to the spiritual battle for our loyalty and the revolutionary goodness of the one true God. Jaime unpacks the rich historical and geographical context of this beautiful passage, revealing that it is far more than just a simple harvest celebration. Instead, she explores its powerful original purpose: a bold, spiritual assault on the false Canaanite god, Baal. While the ancient world was ruled by the fear of bloodthirsty, territorial deities who demanded horrific sacrifices in exchange for rain and crops, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob revealed Himself as a completely different kind of ruler—a loving Father who provides not because of what we do, but because of who He is. Even today, when we are surrounded by a culture that tempts us to fill our voids with modern-day idols and fleeting comforts, God remains the ultimate authority over the chaos. He is the One who truly establishes the mountains, stills the roaring seas, and crowns the year with His bounty. When the world demands constant noise and striving, God gently invites us into His courts, showing us that even our awestruck, still silence can be a profoundly effective form of praise. Come ready to lay down the earthly vices you’ve been clinging to and confront the ways the enemy tries to veil your spiritual eyes. Let this psalm remind you of the stark contrast between the exhausting demands of this world and the boundless grace of the Creator. Because He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, you don't have to look anywhere else to find your ultimate satisfaction, and you can confidently join all of creation in shouting for joy.

| 484 Witchcraft Disguised as Prayer- Part 1 | 25 May 2026 | 00:39:45 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! What happens when our desire for spiritual answers crosses the line into trying to control outcomes apart from God? In this episode, Jaime and Alana dive into the fascinating—and somewhat controversial—topic of WITCHCRAFT within the church, specifically exploring how certain types of "prayer" might actually be rebellion in disguise. They discuss the critical difference between surrendering to God’s power and trying to manipulate our own destinies, the dangers of seeking hidden knowledge, and why praying to angels or treating manifestation as a spiritual shortcut crosses a firm scriptural boundary. Alana highlights the historical weaponization of the word "witch" against spiritually independent women, sparking a deeper conversation about how the fear of overstepping can actually paralyze us and keep our prayers small. Meanwhile, Jaime opens up about a time she unintentionally put a spiritual mentor on a pedestal, relying on her almost like a medium to hear from God, illustrating how easily our hearts can slip into unhealthy reliance even with the best intentions. Along the way, they swap practical wisdom on navigating the gray areas of modern Christian culture. From the absurdity of spiritual charlatans who farm Facebook profiles for "prophetic words" to the harmless family tradition of reading restaurant fortune cookies, they offer a discerning yet grace-filled perspective on setting healthy boundaries without becoming paralyzed by fear or religious superstition. Whether you are worried about overstepping in your prayer life, struggling with the urge to forcefully "manifest" your desires, or simply need a reminder that God wants you to pray boldly in His power rather than your own, we hope this episode encourages you to examine your heart, expect God's guidance, and confidently approach His throne of grace.

| 483 Self-Fulfilling Prophecies | 18 May 2026 | 00:33:52 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In this episode, Jaime and Alana dive into the fascinating concept of self-fulfilling prophecies and how our internal narratives—whether positive or negative—can deeply impact our daily lives, our mindsets, and even our prayer habits. They discuss why anticipating failure often guarantees it, and how expecting God to move can open our eyes to His limitless possibilities. Alana shares a hilarious and humbling story about mistaking the brain fog of a severe dairy intolerance for spiritual persecution while trying to memorize the Bible, reminding us of the dangers of confirmation bias and Christian superstition. Jaime shares an insightful story about her son's hockey practice, illustrating how breaking past mental limits can open the door to new achievements, and how she intentionally rewrote her own narrative about being "bad with names." Along the way, they swap practical wisdom on the power of the words we speak over ourselves and others. From rethinking the unintentional "curses" we accidentally speak over our children at the playground to examining the widespread myth that praying for patience automatically invites tragedy, they offer a refreshing, grace-filled perspective on setting our expectations. Whether you are battling a habit of negative self-talk, limiting God with small prayers, or simply need a gentle reminder to stop bracing for the worst, we hope this episode encourages you to rewrite your internal narratives, expect God's goodness, and boldly step into the calling He has for you.

| 482 Praying Through Psalms 64: The Cosmic Reality of Justice | 13 May 2026 | 00:30:36 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! What do you do when justice feels hopelessly out of reach — when hidden evil goes unpunished and the truth seems buried? Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 64 — Prayer for Deliverance from Secret Enemies — a psalm that speaks directly to the frustration, anger, and dread we feel when injustice seems to be winning, and enemies are laying secret snares with bitter words. Jaime unpacks the heavy emotional toll of watching people get away with evil, and the lie that we must simply wait for eternity to see things made right. Instead, she explores a powerful cosmic reality: God doesn't exist on our finite earthly timeline. He is the great “I AM,” not “I will be.” Even when hidden traps aren't exposed in our space-time continuum, God is already at work in the spiritual realm. When the enemy aims bitter speech like a weapon, God is ready to shoot His own arrow, turning secret plots upside down and bringing the darkness into the light. Come ready to lay down your honest complaints and confront the anxiety that comes from picturing a dreaded future without God in it. Let this psalm remind you of the profound power of two simple words: “But God.” Because He is a God of justice here and now, you don't have to wait to experience His goodness, and you can confidently take refuge in Him while declaring His mighty works.

| 481 The Importance of Scripture Memory Part 2: Alana's Testimony | 11 May 2026 | 00:53:09 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! In Part 2 of their conversation on Scripture Memorization, Jaime and Alana tackle the mental blocks, perfectionism, and daily distractions that often keep us from hiding God's Word in our hearts. Alana opens up with a deeply personal testimony about a grueling season in college when the stress of her studies caused her to lose her ability to recall Scripture completely, and how God graciously restored that gift during a profound moment on a mission trip to Russia. Jaime shares a beautiful story about how a specific passage in Matthew ministered to her teenage son's doubts, proving that the Holy Spirit can bring the Word to mind exactly when it is needed. Along the way, they swap practical, everyday tools for getting verses to stick when your adult brain feels a little too full. From using dry-erase boards and acronyms to incorporating sign language and leaning into the undeniable staying power of catchy children's Sunday school songs, they offer realistic ways to make memorization work for you. Whether you are battling the friction of an overwhelmed mind, wondering which passage to pick first, or simply need a gentle reminder that your spiritual gifts are a daily grace to be stewarded, we hope this episode encourages you to embrace the beautiful, imperfect process of knowing God through His Word.

| 480 Praying Through Psalms 63: When God Says "Leave!" | 06 May 2026 | 00:18:47 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! What do you do when God says “Leave” — calling you out of your safe stronghold into the open wilderness? Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 63 — The Thirsting Soul Satisfied in God — a psalm born out of raw obedience in the wilderness of Judah, where David dares to leave the secure cave of Adullam and his band of four hundred loyal men at the prophet Gad’s command — and still sings for joy in the shadow of God’s wings. Jaime unpacks the historical backdrop from 1 Samuel 22–23, when David was fleeing Saul, had tucked his parents safely away, and had built a strategic military stronghold… only to hear God say, “Leave.” In that dry and weary land with no water, David’s soul thirsts for God more than his body thirsts for drink. He speaks truth before his emotions catch up, declaring that God’s covenant lovingkindness is better than life itself, lifting his hands in praise, clinging to the Lord, and choosing to meditate on Him through the fearful night watches. Come ready to look at your own strongholds — the places that feel secure, logical, and safe — and the moments when God calls you out into uncertainty. Let this psalm remind you that there is no truly secure place apart from Him. Because His lovingkindness is better than life, His wings are the only shelter you need, and in the wilderness, when your soul clings to the One whose right hand upholds you, you can still sing for joy.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! This week, Mariel Davenport, a Bible study teacher and creator of the TEND method, joins Jaime for an uplifting and encouraging conversation on reorienting your heart based on her newest Bible study, 1 Peter: Sustained by a Living Hope. In this episode, Mariel shares the beautiful picture of community through the lens of her salsa garden—explaining how the "companion planting" of tomatoes and jalapeños perfectly mirrors how the body of Christ is designed to mutually benefit and grow together. Mariel also tackles the misconception that reading the Bible is just an academic exercise, and offers practical advice on how slowing down to handwrite Scripture can cultivate a vibrant, intimate relationship with God rather than just gathering a collection of facts. Mariel also opens up about the reality of spiritual warfare, sharing how deeply knowing who God says you are is your greatest defense against the enemy's lies. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on what it means to truly tend to your soul, and how remembering your identity as chosen and holy can transform your daily walk with Jesus.

| 478 Praying Through Psalms 62: My Soul Waits in Silence | 29 Apr 2026 | 00:17:52 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a deeply personal devotional on Psalm 62 — a profound invitation to step away from the chaos of living and make God alone your refuge from busyness and betrayal. Jaime unpacks David's experience with treachery and the exhaustion of dealing with people who bless with their mouths but inwardly curse. Rather than simply looking outward at the offenses of others, she turns the mirror inward. With gentle vulnerability, she leads a time of confession, challenging us to examine our own integrity, hidden judgments, and the ways we might be double-minded in our own thoughts and words. We also dig into the striking, subtle shift between verse 1 ("My soul waits in silence") and verse 5 ("My soul, wait in silence"). Jaime explores how waiting on God is not a passive resignation, but an active, intentional quieting of the endless media and mental inputs we consume every day. She shares how we can practically coach our restless, weary souls back to stillness when the turmoil of life makes us want to run. Come ready to unplug from the striving and step into intentional white space. Let this psalm remind you that while the world spins in a blur of endless activity and shifting truths, you have an unshakable stronghold. Because He is the rock. He is the anchor. And He is the quiet refuge where our souls can finally be still.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! What does it look like to hide God's Word in your heart when life feels too busy and your brain feels too full? Jaime and Alana share personal stories, practical strategies, and honest confessions about the "blocks" that keep us from memorizing Scripture—from feeling too old, to frustration with changing Bible translations, to the overwhelm of not knowing where to start. Along the way, they unpack creative tools that work at any age—setting verses to familiar tunes, using hand motions, breaking passages into manageable chunks, and asking reading-comprehension questions to slow down and absorb the text. Alana shares how Bible quizzing as a teenager shaped her ability to memorize entire chapters of Matthew, while Jaime offers a fresh perspective on why we can't always rely on our phones to bring God's Word to mind. Whether you're a seasoned Scripture memorizer who has fallen out of practice or someone who has never tried it before, we hope you'll join us as we rediscover the joy, depth, and lasting fruit of committing God's Word to memory—one verse at a time.

| 476 Praying Through Psalms 61: The Rock Higher Than I | 22 Apr 2026 | 00:14:58 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 61 — a beautiful, deep breath of a psalm where David trades lament for absolute, unshakable confidence in God's protection. Jaime unpacks the vivid contrasts of David’s poetry, from the rugged military imagery of God as an unbreachable high tower lifted far above the enemy's arrows, to the tender, fiercely protective picture of a mother bird sheltering her young. She traces this comforting theme of hiding "under His wings" throughout Scripture, showing how it represents not just safety, but deep belonging, intimacy, and love. We also dig into the striking echo of Moses in Exodus 17 — when he struck the rock at Horeb and living water poured out. God is not just a cold, distant stone fortress to hide behind; He is the life-giving provision that sustains us when we are placed upon the high ground. Come ready to step off the battlefield and into the throne room. Let this psalm remind you that while we aren't taken out of the world, we are completely covered while we walk through it. Because He is the high tower. He is the living water. And He is the safe refuge under whose wings we can finally sing for joy.

| 475 When Faith Is Forbidden: How to Pray for Persecuted Women with Rachel Morley from Open Doors | 20 Apr 2026 | 00:38:06 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! This week, Rachel Morley, the Senior SRP Specialist for Open Doors, joins Jaime for an eye-opening and deeply moving conversation about the realities facing the persecuted church today. In this episode, Rachel shares the unique, often hidden, and complex challenges that Christian women face in hostile regions around the world. She opens up about the heartbreaking reality of secret believers, the threat of forced marriages, and the profound cost of choosing Christ in places like Afghanistan, Somalia, India and Bangladesh. Rachel also unpacks incredible stories of resilience that prove God is still doing the impossible in impossible places. From believers finding peace in the face of familial betrayal to Muslims encountering Jesus in miraculous dreams and visions, this conversation highlights the unbreakable spirit of the global church. She also introduces a powerful, simple way to intercede when you don't have the answers: the "somehow" prayer.

| 474 Praying Through Psalms 60: Victory in Hopeless Ground | 15 Apr 2026 | 00:23:31 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 60 — a raw, honest lament born out of being surrounded on all sides, where David dares to say You did this, God — and still picks up the banner and calls Him Lord. Jaime unpacks the historical backdrop of David fighting enemies to the north, east, and south all at once, and shares a breathtaking story from her years near Death Valley — where barren, salt-crusted flats that look permanently dead suddenly erupted into a once-in-a-century bloom of purple wildflowers. Sometimes the victory is already buried right beneath the most hopeless-looking ground, waiting for God's rain to bring it to life. We also dig into the striking echo of Moses in Exodus 33 — when God offered the promised land without His presence, and Moses said no deal. David carries that same heart here: deliverance by man is in vain, and the land is just dirt without the God who makes it flourish. Come ready to look at your own salt flats — the silence, the barrenness, the places that feel cracked and pointless — and let this psalm remind you that there are seeds of life lying dormant beneath every one of them. Because He is the water. He is the banner. And He is the only reason the bloom comes.

| 473 Faith That Moves Mountains: Trusting God Through Loss with Kristen Rickards | 13 Apr 2026 | 00:49:33 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! This week, musician, author, and worship artist Kristen Rickards joins Jaime for an honest and hope-filled conversation about trusting God through seasons of devastating loss, unexplainable health battles, and the kind of waiting that tests everything you thought you believed. In this episode, Kristen shares her journey from child actress and pageant winner to Christian worship leader and author — and the painful season of two miscarriages and a health crisis that nearly shook her faith to its core. She opens up about what it felt like to be angry with God, to pull back from prayer, and the moment she realized she couldn't stay in that place for long. Kristen also unpacks the powerful story of the Shunammite woman from 2 Kings — a mother who watched her promised son die and still declared "all is well" as she ran toward the man of God — and how that story mirrors the faith required when our own dreams look dead. She reminds us that God doesn't punish us for our doubt; He rewards us for our faith, even when it's only the size of a mustard seed. You'll walk away encouraged that no pain is wasted, that it's okay to come to God imperfectly, and that the dreams you've written off may be exactly what He's about to breathe life into again.

| 472 Praying through Psalm 59: When Enemies Surround You, God Is Your Fortress | 08 Apr 2026 | 00:16:00 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 59 — a deeply personal cry for deliverance that moves from terror to triumph, anchored in the unshakeable truth that God is our fortress no matter how thin the walls around us feel. Jaime walks through David's harrowing reality — surrounded at night by men sent to kill him — and shares a vivid story from her experience at a safari in Kenya's Maasai Mara, where the sound of circling lions in the dark brought this ancient psalm to life in the most visceral way. Sometimes God is the only thing standing between you and what's closing in. We also explore the surprising tension in David's prayer — asking God not to destroy his enemies outright, but to scatter them as living witnesses of His power, while still crying out for ultimate justice. And through it all, the refrain that carries the whole psalm: as for me, I will sing. Come ready to name what's surrounding you, find refuge in the God who is your stronghold even when your "tent" feels paper-thin, and make the bold, faith-filled decision to sing His praises before your heart fully catches up — because that's exactly what David did.

| 471 Running Into Healing When Life Hands You Hurt with Willow Weston | 06 Apr 2026 | 00:58:58 | |
Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! This week, author, speaker, and Collide ministry founder Willow Weston joins Jaime for a raw and powerful conversation about running toward pain instead of away from it, based on her new book, Collide: Running Into Healing When Life Hands You Hurt. In this episode, Willow shares her deeply personal story of growing up in a home marked by addiction and abandonment, and how a moment of hiding in a closet from her own mother became the catalyst for a healing journey she never expected. Willow also unpacks the beautiful tension between letting God heal us and actively participating in our own healing — reminding us that wholeness requires both surrender and a willingness to move. She offers a refreshing challenge to the "sweep it under the rug" approach to pain, pointing to a Jesus who never once avoided someone's mess but made a beeline straight for it. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of how unresolved wounds quietly travel through our relationships, and why giving yourself permission to name your pain — and invite God into it — is the bravest step toward becoming more whole than broken.

He acts as a whirlwind, sweeping away the kindling of their plans before the fire can even start, rendering their venom completely powerless. We also dive into the beautiful duality of praying boldly for the defeat of wicked plots while holding out hope for the radical redemption of those in authority — because God's justice leaves room for both. Come ready to lay down your frustrations about the state of the world, find peace in the God who executes perfect justice, and boldly declare that there is indeed a reward for the righteous — today.

| 459 Why Pray If God Already Knows? Listening to God and Praying in His Will with Jennifer Kennedy Dean | 23 Feb 2026 | 00:23:10 | |
Don’t forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! Do you ever wonder what the point of prayer is if God already knows what he's going to do? If so, you're not alone...and you definitely don't want to miss this episode! This week, Jaime sits down for a powerful and timeless conversation from the podcast archives with Jennifer Kennedy Dean, beloved author of Live a Praying Life. Though Jennifer unexpectedly passed away in 2019, her message continues to impact women around the world who long for deeper intimacy with Christ. In this episode, Jennifer shares the heart behind living in ongoing communion with God—not treating prayer as a spiritual task list, but as a lifestyle of surrender, attentiveness, and transformation. Jennifer unpacks how prayer aligns us with God’s purposes rather than persuading Him to adopt ours, while highlighting the importance of being willing participants in the mystery of prayer. She speaks candidly about her struggles when her brother passed away from illness after fervent prayers of her whole family, and how sometimes God's best "yes" to our prayers doesn't look quite like we'd imagined or even hoped for. If you’ve ever felt frustrated that your prayers weren’t “working,” or wondered why God sometimes seems silent, this conversation will absolutely bring you hope and encouragement. Jennifer’s legacy continues through her writing and ministry, inviting women everywhere into a richer, more transformative prayer life.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today! How do you declare "God is on the throne" when the evidence around you screams the opposite? Can you find spiritual victory when your logic and emotions are railing against this truth? In this devotional on Psalm 53, we walk through a "revision" of Psalm 14— a Maskil that shifts our focus from the covenant name of Yahweh to Elohim, the Creator and Judge of all humanity. We confront the paralyzing reality of "great fear where no fear had been" and explore how the enemy uses the brokenness of this world to mask the spiritual victory God has already won. We move past the surface-level tragedies to the deeper truth: that God has already scattered the bones of those who encamp against you. Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of spiritual recalibration. If you are exhausted by the heavy news cycle, or if your mind is railing against the promise of God’s sovereignty, this episode offers a battle plan for your thoughts. Come ready to "disconnect the logic," destroy speculations, and stand firm on the invisible, unshakeable reality of God’s Kingdom.
