Ladies! Welcome back to Water with Lemon and thanks for joining in on this week’s episode! This week, I got to sit down with, Amanda Hope Haley. We talk all about her new book, Mary Magdalene Never Wore Blue Eyeshadow and the adventures that led up to it. I got to have such a fun conversation with Amanda about what God says about the Bible versus what we say about the Bible. I think that this conversation is so vital because we live in a world that listens to podcasts and reads different devotionals as a supplement to the Bible, however, we should not let those things alter what God and the Bible are actually saying. Something that Melissa said that really stuck out to me is to be uncomfortable and spend time in those places because that’s where He is going to reveal Himself the most. It is so good that we have all of these new books that we can use to grow and understand the Bible. At the end of the day, the only way that we can understand the Bible more is to dive into the Word. I’m so excited about this co

Hey there, ladies! Welcome back to Water with Lemon and thanks for joining in on this week’s episode! This week, I got to sit down with my new friend, Melissa Maimone. We got to talk about her struggle with anxiety and depression and how she has found the Lord in those moments. . I got to have such a life giving conversation with Melissa and finding freedom in having depression and anxiety because we have God who is with you the whole time. I think that this conversation is so important because we live in a world that suffers in anxiety and depression on a daily basis. Melissa’s testimony is so inspiring of how God has really transformed her and taken her from that. We chatted about how you can have a really good life but still struggle with a mental illness. It is so freeing to think that we have a God that carries our burdens when we don’t think we can take another step. I’m so grateful that I got to talk with Melissa because hearing her testimony and knowing that we are not alone in this! Something that wa

Hey there, ladies! Welcome back to Water with Lemon and thanks for joining in on this week’s episode! This week, I get to sit down with my new friend, Lisa Brockman. We got to talk about her story of leaving Mormonism and finding the Biblical Jesus. Lisa shares with us about how she left the Mormon church and how she found and fell in love with the person of Jesus. I got to have such a deep conversation with Lisa and finding herself worthy in the One who loves and knows her. This conversation was so close to my heart because so much of my family is Mormon. It was so cool to hear about God transformed Lisa’s heart to surrender to God. However, we got to chat about how God is worthy of sacrificing everything and experiencing God on such an intentional level. We have a God that shows us grace and mercy even when we are coming back to the Father. I think that this episode really pulls that out. I’m so thankful that I got to talk with Lisa because seeing her testimony transforming her life was truly eye opening! S

Hey Ladies! Welcome back to the podcast and thanks for joining in on this week’s episode! This week, I get to sit down with my friend and pastor, Jamin Roller. We got to chat about mental health and understanding who we are. This week on the podcast, we have my wonderful pastor Jamin Roller talking about mental health and his thought provoking ideas about it. I got to have an insightful conversation with him about it and understanding who we are and who we are in Christ. I think that this was such a life-giving conversation because we got to talk about things that people really struggle with when it comes to anxiety, depression, and other mental illnesses. We live in a generation that is constantly surrounded by technology and stress that can lead to things like depression and anxiety. However, we have a merciful and loving God that is near take those worries away. In Matthew 11, it says that when we go to the Father, He will take our heavy burdens and give us rest. I think that this episode really speaks int

This week on the podcast we are talking about putting our priorities in check. I go on a soapbox rant about how important community is and encourage you guys to not let being “busy” slow you down from making sure you are meeting with one another. Scriptures I mentioned: Genesis 2:2 Hebrews 10:24-25 Questions I challenged you with: What do you fill your free time with? What is important to you? Do you have a group of girls you are meeting with consistently to confess and pray with one another? What areas of your life might you need to surrender to the Lord and replace with things that are for your flourishing? If you are finding yourself to be too busy, talk to God about ways you might be able to realign your priorities so that you have time for rest and community.

Welcome to episode 1 of my January bonus episodes! We are talking about all things new year and new beginnings. I hope you all have had a wonderful start to the new year. There is something so great about a fresh start. Here are the questions that I challenged you to reflect on in the episode: Can you identify a moment when you experienced God for the first time? Or maybe in a new way that you never had before? Journal about that. Or maybe you can’t recall a time and you might ask God to reveal himself to you. What are some old clothes you still have on..things from the past that have no hold here in Christ? Commit to daily reminding yourself to put on your new self and leave that stuff behind. Lastly, lay out your goals for the year before God and find scripture to align your goals with what His word says. See if there is any insecurity behind those goals and lay them before God. DON’T FORGET YOUR SWEATSHIRT! Get it while it’s still chilly outside and to get the size you want! Use the code NEWYEAR a

Hey ladies! Thank y’all so much for coming back and listening to the podcast week after week! This week I get to sit down with my friend, Mary Demuth and talk about her past dealing with sexual abuse and what life looks like now. We talk about her new book, We Too which focuses on how the church can redemptivley look at sexual abuse. I think that this is such an important topic to speak about it because so many men and women have been in those shoes but are too afraid to speak up. Hearing her story and hearing that even in the hard conversations, His name can be lifted high. I loved having this intimate conversation with her because I think it’s so important to get the conversation started so others can speak up. Oh my word — I’m in awe that I have so many people that come back every week to listen to Water with Lemon. I pray that you continue to seek the Kingdom first and find community that you can trust and that can speak life into you. I know that it can be hard to share your story but after having m
