Her Faith Inspires Podcast

We say we can give our stress to God, but do we? Why do most women walk around filled with anxiety and high strung? Today, Shanda shares practice tips for how to eliminate stress in our lives, and verses from the Bible that tell us how to give stress to God.

If I had a dollar for every time someone said, "Don't judge others" I would be rich. Does the Bible tell us not to judge others? What did Jesus mean when He said, "Judge not"? Today, we will dive into what Jesus really meant and why this verse is taken out of context amongst believers and non-believers today.

Do the opinions of others cause you to second guess the life you're living? If you feel like you're easily swayed when those close to you tell you how you should live your life, this episode is for you. Shanda talks about whose opinion matters and what to do when those in your life try and tell you how to live.

Shanda's sister, Jamie, is on the show today. Her calling in life has nothing to do with full-time ministry. She is a mom to four boys and shares the ups and downs, trials and triumphs of motherhood. Jamie shares that even though God puts dreams in your heart, it doesn't always work out like we think it should.

Welcome back, my friend. You are listening to episode 4 and today we are talking about God's unchanging word in an ever changing culture. How do we stay true to His word and How do we stand up to a culture that finds His word irrelevant and out of date?

Welcome back. You are listening to episode 3 and today we are talking about a trend going around social media AND women's ministries that I really want to talk about and dive into today.

We are bombarded by influencers and people who want to share their experience, knowledge and expertise. But do we really need to be identified by social media in order to be classified as an influencer? I hope not! Influence is so much more than standing on a stage or speaking from a platform. Influence is how we live and treat others. Our lives are the stage. If you are looking to make an impact and change the world, start where you are. There are many women in the bible who became influencers without a stage and without a social media account. They didn't sign up to get noticed or be heard. God chose them. He changed their lives and He made them an influencer. Are you looking for a stage to stand on? Or are you allowing your life to be the stage?

There's a question I've always dreaded. Maybe you dread it too? I like to talk about what I do, not why I do it. Like, "Hey, I'm a teacher and I teach a bunch of 5th graders." That sounds so much cooler than, "I really love kids and I want to help them learn." But if you want to find your purpose you gotta answer the dreaded question. Are you ready for it? Can you handle it? Because you have to answer why if you want to find your purpose.
