GiGi on campus girl talk

 “What are you planning?” He stretched his neck, trying to decipher from where he sat what she was writing. She did not reply.  He did not ask again; instead, he rubbed his beard, deep in thought. Jezebel folded the scroll, placed his seal over it, and rang the gong. Elana watched in fascination as a soldier entered from the side door and bowed. Jezebel stretched her arm with the scroll. “Take this to the elders and nobles who live in Naboth's city, and tell them I command they do as this says.” The man took the scroll, bowed, and left the room. Jezebel rubbed her hands together. A satisfied look registered on her face, her amber eyes slanted and malicious. Ahab reached for her hand and pulled her with force onto his lap. “What did you write?” She placed her hand around his neck and leaned her embellished head onto his. “I have proclaimed a day of fasting and have requested they seat Naboth in a prominent place amongst the people so—” “Prominent?”  She placed her index finger on his lips. “Shh. Once he is seated, two vagabonds will accuse him in front of everyone that he has cursed both God and the king.” An ominous smile crept over her red lips. “The town will be horrified to know Naboth has turned against you, and they will stone him to death—when that happens, you are to take possession of your vineyard!” Ahab stared at his wife with his mouth agape. He blinked a few times......                                 ____________________________________________________ This week we are looking at the story of evil queen Jezebel and King Ahab.

Then suddenly, she locked eyes with him! "Hey, aren't you part of those freaks?" she accused. Pete felt like he swallowed a rock. What could he say? Then, with a mind of their own, his lips parted, and he croaked out a no! "Yeah, she's right," a member of the opposing team stated. I'm sure I've seen you at the stations with the other goodie two shoes," he smirked. Pete felt his face grown hot as more eyes turned to watch him. "I don't know them," Pete growled. "Yeah, I've seen you, plus you talk and act differently. ," someone Pete wasn't sure he'd seen agreed. Pete couldn't take it. He felt humiliated. Suddenly, like something out of a nightmare, Pete heard words come out of his mouth. He didn't even realise he knew.  He cursed and yelled, denying any affiliation with the church or Pastor Jay.                                 ____________________________________________________ Join us as we dive into the story of Pete, the modernised Peter.

The courtyard seemed to grow quieter, the murmurs of the crowd fading into the background. Peter's thoughts were loud in his mind, accusing and relentless.  Before he could finish the thought, yet another voice called out. This time it was an older man, his face partially hidden by the shadow of his hood. “Didn't I see you in the garden with him earlier?” he asked, his voice laced with certainty. Peter's heart felt like it would burst out of his chest. He clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms, and his words came out in a panicked shout. "I don't know him! I swear, I don't!" At that moment, a sound pierced the cold night air—a rooster crowing. Peter froze. He turned his head slightly and saw Jesus standing, watching him. Peter gasped. There was no anger in Jesus' eyes—only deep sadness and pain. Join us as we dive into the story of Peter from the bible. His story can be found in Luke 22:54-62.  Today we are going to talk about: If you have ever denied knowing a friend or a sibling? Have you ever been betrayed and hurt by a friend? Or have you ever denied Jesus?

Looking at her watch, she groaned under her breath and wished she hadn't rostered Mia on to help her any of the nights.  Makenzie stormed out of the kitchen and into the church, narrowing her eyes when she saw Mia inside just standing there listening! How irresponsible!    “Why aren't you in the kitchen helping me? She hissed, pulling her sister out the door. “Sorry, but I love when Sally and her sister sing. The whole program has been amazing. You've missed 3 nights already. You ready shouldn't be stuck down there.” “Do you think people want cold food, Mia? We're here to serve the church, not be selfish!”                                 ____________________________________________________ Join us as we dive into the story of Makenzie, the modernised Martha.

"Martha's chest tightened with frustration as she slammed the clay pot back onto the table. The clatter echoed through the house. She couldn't understand it. Didn't Mary care about their reputation? How could she sit there, doing nothing, while there was so much to prepare? Her mind buzzed with a flurry of emotions: irritation, exhaustion, and, deep down, a flicker of envy. Mary looked so peaceful, while Martha felt like a storm—wild and chaotic." Join us as we dive into the story of Martha from the bible. Her story can be found in Luke 10:38-42.  Today we want to talk about one part of the story and what it means.  "Martha, Martha, you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” So what does this mean?  Tune in to find out!                                                  ___________________________________ Read story on blog   Visit our website Shop our books  Artist of the month: Riley Clemmons Keep in the loop by signing to our GIGI Notes HERE DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE  Hosts: Esther & Steph Mix & effects: Stephanie Giselle Purple Planet Music https://www.purple-planet.com/ email us: writegigi5@gmail.com Write by post GIGI Teen Podcast PO BOX 6505 Upper Mt Gravatt QLD 4122 music credit: Purple planet music All music played on the podcast radio is covered under the APRA AMCOS Online Mini Licence.

Zoe rolled her eyes at each photo she scrolled through on social media feed–she paused at the photo of a family - she felt sick looking at their faces and fake smiles. Not that anyone would know those smiles were fake. They looked so genuine and super happy. The whole family looked picture perfect. They were dressed impeccably. The twins looked like dolls with their red hair and freckled smiling faces - big dimples dances on their little cheeks. The brother looked handsome in his dark suit and polka-dot bow tie. The older girl was dressed in a pretty blue dress and Nike sneakers–she had a big grin on her face as she posed next to her mother and brother–but her green eyes held a tinge of sadness. Tears welled in Zoe's eyes as she studied the photo - feeling angry, she tossed the phone across her bed. It rolled, then dropped to the carpeted floor with a soft thud. “Fake! Liar!” she seethed under her breath. She hated those photos of her and her family–fake and fake. It has only been three days since her parents have celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary, so the events of the day were fresh in her mind. Join Esther and Steph as they talk about how hard it is to fake what's going on...Tune in to find out the rest of the story.                                                    ___________________________________ Read story on blog  https://www.gigistorylibrary.com.au/the-masked-reality-navigating-the-pressure-to-pretend/ Visit our website: https://www.gigistorylibrary.com.au/ Shop our books Sign up to our GIGI notes Keep in the loop by signing to our GIGI Notes HERE DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE  Hosts: Esther & Steph Mix & effects: Stephanie Giselle email us: writegigi5@gmail.com Write by post GIGI Teen Radio PO BOX 6505 Upper Mt Gravatt QLD 4122 music credit: Purple planet music

“Stop!” Ella's voice rang clear from the other side of the phone. “Seriously Chloe, did you hear yourself? I mean, you're talking about stuff that isn't even close to happening. Or are you going to get married tomorrow or something?” Chloe shook her head. “No. No, I'm not.” “And are you going to graduate next week? We have 2 and a half years to go. So much can happen. In my opinion, you need to rip every page of that book and let God take care of your future. You're going to have a worry heart attack for nothing.” Chloe's dark eyes rounded at her friends' words. She opened her mouth to defend herself, but nothing came out. She looked down at her list. Ella was right. Everything she had written was for when she was a grownup. Maybe she should let God take care of the future?...

Morgan waved to the new girl and motioned for her to come and sit with them at the table where the praise and worship team sat looking at a list of songs for the new year. “What are you doing?” Kelly whispered as she watched Tessa, the new girl, heading their way. Morgan frowned. “I'm inviting Tessa to sit with us.” “We know that!” Julie said with eyes wide. “But, why? I don't really think she fits in with us.” “She's a little different.” Nelli added. “She can find other people to sit with.” “Shh, she's coming.” Tessa suddenly got busy with the songbook. Morgan shook her head, not believing what was coming out of her friend's mouth. A soft hello interrupted any further thoughts as Tessa sat next to her. “Hey!” Morgan grinned. “Glad you came to church today.” Tessa tucked a strand of her dark hair behind an ear. She smiled shyly, her light brown eyes sparkling. “Me too.” “Do you sing?” Nelli asked, leaning forward and staring at the new girl. Morgan's eyes widened. How rude. She didn't even say hello to Tessa. Today Steph and Esther are talking all about cliques in church! Do they happen or they don't because church people are too Christian?

“Want a drink?” Amanda asked. “Sure, thanks” Lilian agreed taking it. She needed to wash down the crunchy spring rolls. Taking the bottle she quickly scanned it like her dad and brother had warned her to. Oh, it had alcohol. She couldn't drink it. “Thanks guys but it's got alcohol” Lillian said returning the bottle to her friends. “Well it's Lil's 18th, but we got it because it literally says 1% alcohol.” Julz stated pointing to the line claiming the small percentage. “One percent Lil, really?” Amanda said handing her back the bottle. Lillian read the ingredients and the percent on alcohol. It really was only one percent.... Today Steph and Esther are talking all about peer pressure.

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”  When you want to get your license, the first thing you should do is read the driving manual, to know very well the traffic streets and what are the rules that are required of you.

“I don't see why we have to be so poor!” Jessica moaned as she helped her mum make dinner that evening. “Poor?” Her mother laughed. “We're not poor Jess.” Jessica harrumphed – it was Monday night and she had spent a whole day at her new friends house. Britany was not only really nice but also super rich. “Mum, if you saw Britany's house, you will also see how poor we are.” Jessica paused as she peeled the potatoes. “Her room is massive! I mean she has a tv three sizes bigger than our tv. It sits on her wall. Her bed is King size and pretty with flowers and it's from France mum. France!? Mine is from China. Ugh.”...

She watched her sister put her bag in the boot of the car – every single movement was perfect. Her nails neatly filed. Her uniform highlighting her athletic legs and her blazer showed off all her seven badges announcing all her roles at school.

"The first few weeks back at school became tougher than they had ever been over the holidays. Not only was I tired, I was thirsty ALL THE TIME. I couldn't even concentrate in class. All I could think about was how thirsty I was, despite drinking over five litres of water each day. What was happening? “It's just a hot summer,” I kept telling myself. Little did I realize that my nice, ordered world was about to be turned completely upside down. It wasn't until one night at an orchestra rehearsal that my body decided it couldn't go on any longer. I was ready to collapse and Mum decided we would detour via the hospital where she worked, on the way home. We didn't go home that night."

"Dear diary, My dad's having an affair! It all started a week ago when I stayed home from school. I was sick and was curled up in my bed, trying to fall asleep. A soft knock on the front door made me sit up, and I wondered who could be knocking at 10 am. Mum was home, and I tiptoed and peeked out the window. A sleek black car was parked in front of our house—a tall woman dressed in a dark trousers and a nice top stood there—she had short dark hair and her skin was nicely tanned—she looked very pretty.  “Yes, can I help you?” Mum smiled. “Is Drew home?” she asked, looking at her surroundings. “Drew? As in my husband?” The woman nodded slowly. “I'm looking for him.” She said. “Sorry, he's at work, but if you leave a message and a name I can get him to call you back?” The woman stared at mum for a few seconds. Then she mumbled something and hurried off. I stood at the window a little longer and watched her get into her car and drive off. Slowly, I made my way back to bed, totally confused about this woman. I mean, isn't is odd that she mumbled something and didn't tell my mother her name or why she was looking for dad?"

Today on Bible archives we are looking at Stephen, who was one of the young people chosen to carry out the work of God. The first church back in the disciples' time was growing in numbers and the apostles could not keep up with preaching and caring for people, so they decided to seek help. Stephen, a young man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, consecrated in soul and spirit, began the gospel with power, and the church grew and multiplied in Jerusalem. Many obeyed the faith. But sadly, he was hated by many and was killed!  Listen to the full episode to see what happens.                         ___________________________________ Visit our website Pre-order the Royal Palace Get the gratitude journal Sign up to our GIGI notes SHOP OUR BOOKS  eBook library Artist of the month: Riley Clemmons  Verse of the month: Ephesians 4:31-32 (NIV) Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

With each step Salome took towards the banquet hall the more determined she became. Her jewels jiggled as she came to the last step and she exhaled. Music and laughter echoes from down the hallway. She was close. Her mother had told her not to let her down and she would not. She would make Herodias proud of her. Before entering the grand hall she stopped at yet another mirror of the palace and looked at her reflection in the shimmering lights of the night. She was decorated with costly garlands and flowers, sparkling jewels, anklets and flashing bracelets. She had to admit that she was a vision of beauty and loveliness. With little covering and no modesty, every part of her body felt exposed to the public. Her crimson full lips smiled at her reflection. “Show time Salome. Make your mother proud.” She added sarcastically. With that she pranced into the room and waited for the musician to begin their low rhythmic sound of their musical instruments. A gasp erupted from around the room as the men admired her beauty. She looked up and saw Herod gulp and mouth gape at seeing her barely dressed body. She felt indecent and unscrupulous like a lady of the night and not a princess, but this is what her mother wanted of her. She was going to give her more than she had asked. The music began and she started her sultry dance. She forgot her mother. Herod. The guests and the servants watching. The music reeled at her senses and she escaped to another world. A world of pleasure and happiness. A world where her mother did not exist.

"Days and months passed, and we were slowly getting comfortable with our new lives. After living there about a year, this neighbour stopped ignoring us and started standing outside the gate, hands on hips, swearing at us. Every day, the same thing. We were pretty offended and annoyed, to say the least! We felt like we couldn't step out in peace ever again. One day she even followed my sister to school, yelling rude things at her. When we returned from school, we told my mum what happened. Mum said not to worry because God would fight for us, and to leave everything in his hands. What??! Why can't we do something to stop her?"

All these years she had known that God had given her, her husband Jehoiada the high priest of the temple. The palace had been in uproar when she had chosen to marry below her station. Being a princess she had been expected to marry a prince or a King. But, Jehosheba had always felt that the palace was not the place for her. She felt closest to her God when she was worshiping at the temple. The connection she felt strengthened her soul. With her mind twirling with thoughts, she walked Adina to the extra bedroom and put her on the bed to sleep. She rang the bell and asked Hila to bring Adina a hot calming drink. Seeing her friend's fluttering eye lids, Jehosheba walked out the room and took a deep breath. The royal family was no more. Had Athaliah killed the wives and concubines that lived it he palace? Had she killed Ahaziahs wife Zibiah?  Then like a lightning a name came into her mind. Baby Joash! Athalia had killed baby Joash! She gasped for breath and leaned onto the pillar of the temple. Her mind raced. What if the soldier's hadn't gotten there yet? What if there was a chance? She had to do something! Her heart trembled at the thought of facing Athaliah. She wiped the little wet droplets on her forehead. Why must she be afraid? She was no longer a young girl hidden in the shadows watching helplessly from her bedroom balcony as young girls were taken to be sacrificed to Baal. She was a woman now and she had her God. The God her mother had showed her. Her mother had been one of the concubines of her father but a God fearing woman. She had died from a sickness when Jehosheba was younger. How she missed her. The last time they had been together, her mother had prayed over her.

Silently she hid behind one of the thick pillars and watched. It was Jezebel and Ahab. They stood in front of the Baal god. Another shrine had been erected for their worship. The golden half oxen and half man wasn't very big in size. However they had built him on a higher part and had built seven steps for them to climb and reach the image. On the sides of the statue were men with drums drumming while women and men dressed in white danced as in trance around the statue. Elana recognised them as Jezebel's priests and priestess. They cut their flesh with sharp objects till blood came out. They splattered it across to the their god while moaning, groaning and chanting in gibberish. Ahab stood to one side and watched as Jezebel dressed in a dark sheer gown walked toward Baal with her arms outstretched holding what looked like an animal. Her voice rang loud as she screeched and called names to her god. Her head thrown back as if in ecstasy. Elana felt her body begin to tremble. This must be her witchcraft she performed on a weekly basis. She had heard others speak of it but never had she witnessed it herself. Should she be surprised? Queen Jezebel's has been brought to the northern kingdom to be King Ahab's bride to strengthen the military alliance between her kingdom of Phoenicia and the Kingdom of Israel. Her father King Ethbaal was not only a king but also the high priest of Baal. This ritual had been seemed into her since childhood. Fire spitted out of the laps of the golden oxen where a gold giant bowl sat and as Jezebel reached the top of the step and the bowl, she threw her head back and screamed ‘rain' and she hurled the animal into the fire pit. She bowed low, screeched.

The throne room was ivory in colour with elaborate carved pillars and shinny marble floors. Rugs of different colours and patterns adorned various part of the room and thick expensive drapery of purple and blue adorned the ceilings and hung to add elegance. The room was bright with lights illuminating from every corner and people dressed in their finest met her gaze and bowed as she walked down the pathway toward the throne. Music played as dancers twirled in one section of the room. The whole ambience made her feel warm and welcomed. Her eyes fell on the impressive figure ahead sitting on his throne. His elaborate tunic of blue with gold rips on the collar and hem glistered in the sunlight. His red cape was clasped with a golden brooch with the head of lion. His crown was short but adorned with jewels and his beard was trimmed neatly. He smiled at her and she smiled back. His eyes spoke kindness. When she arrived at his feet, she bowed low and watched as Jaleel inclined his head and kept in there reverently. Her maids had been escorted to another side of the room away from the throne. She almost gasped as the king stood up and towered over her. His physic impressive. He bowed and grinned. “Your highness Zaria of Sheba, welcome to Jerusalem. I am humble to have the honour of your presence.” He inclined his head again.

"She scanned her surroundings and suddenly she saw something floating amongst the tall grass. She squinted; from the distance it looked like a baby crocodile. The skin looked thick leathery and scale like. Her heart began to beat and she swam toward her maid. “Onofria!” she shouted. “There's something in the water amongst the reeds.” She pointed weakly to the distance. Onofria and Nefret hurried to her side as she stayed closer to the steps and Bahiti stopped playing. Slowly, Onofria walked further into the water, her neck craned scanning the waters. Anisenath followed close behind feeling afraid of what could be lurking beneath. She had never encountered any danger before, maybe she was overacting. Onofria reached the point where the princess had been before and she let out a laugh. “My lady, it looks like it is something like a child's toy. A basket of some sort.” Anisenath tilted her head to one side and looked over her maids shoulder. The basket disentangled itself from the reeds and slowly floated to where it was more visible. “Oh Onofria, you are correct it's a basket! I do not think it is a toy. It looks a little big.” Anisenath curiosity rose. “Fetch it for me.. I need to see what is inside.” Onofria swam slowly to the basket and took hold of it. Slowly she pushed it toward the princess until it came to a stop. Filled with awe, Anisenath stared at the strange basket made of papyrus and it had been coated with tar and pitch. The strong scent itched her delicate nose. Slowly she lifted the lid and suddenly the face of a baby, all scrunched up, burst into tears. The cry of the baby filled the early morning and she gasped.  “It's a baby!” her throat constricted at the thought of this precious child having been in the Nile invested crocodile waters. Who would do such a cruel act?......

The car slowed down and began slightly swerving, “I'm not feeling well, I need to pull over”, mum alerted while crossing two lines of busy traffic to get off the road. “Call the ambulance” was all that mum could manage to say, now the rest was left to me. I was the oldest so it was my responsibility to now apply the knowledge I'd learnt from young… but had never used before. I grabbed mum's phone off the seat, fear gripping my heart as l looked at mum, once all lively and happy, now helplessly weak lying in the reclined driver's seat. Fingers shaking l dialled 000 for help, thoughts were zooming through my head, my heart beat pounding in my chest making it the only sound that I heard.

"Dear diary, We had the most amazing thing happen to my family and I today! I HAVE to tell you all about it. About a month ago my dad lost his job at the company he worked for. They went bankrupt and had no money to pay anyone out. So they had to let every single employee go. We were devastated but specially my dad. He had been at the company for so long and he feels cheated that after so many years, nothing was given to him in return. Mum reminded him that God had put him there for a reason and that he shouldn't feel resentful. Anyways, a few weeks have gone by and dad hasn't been able to find a job. He does little jobs like mowing someone's lawn or fixing things around their house, but nothing concrete or stable. My sister and I are at school all day so we don't work and my works three days a week – but her salary doesn't cover everything..."

"One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, "Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd." I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up, and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. My heart went out to him. So I jogged over to him, and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, I said, "Those guys are jerks. They really should get lives." He looked at me and said, "Hey thanks!" There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books and asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before. He said he had gone to private school before now. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before, but we talked all the way home, and I carried his books. He turned out to be a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He said yes..."

"Dear diary, I woke up cranky today! I hadn't slept well, and I didn't want to get out of bed. I tossed over to the other side and covered my head with my fleece blanket. I was just drifting off to sleep when the rude sound of my 12-year-old brother running down the hallway and calling my mum, startled me – seriously, I could strangle that boy! Frustrated and annoyed I jumped out of bed and reluctantly got ready for the day. My best friend Angela was still on holidays with her family and wouldn't come till the end of the week.

"Edward had glanced at the clock in the train station. He was supposed to catch the express train to Jammu and then go from Jammu to Katra. The mission station where he lived and went to school was in the Himalayan mountains of Kashmir, northern India. And now the boy had struck up a conversation, seemingly eager for Edward's company. The small Indian boy glanced at Edward. His eyes were bright. “The train will come soon,” the boy told Edward once again. “What's your name?” Edward asked. The boy seemed surprised that anyone would want to know his name. “Sadu is my name. I come with you, yes?” Sadu asked hopefully. Edward chuckled. “Wouldn't your family miss you?” The boy shuffled his feet and looked at the ground. “I have no family,” Sadu replied without emotion. So he's an orphan, Edward thought sadly."

"Seven-year-old Sophie Hayes wiped her swollen red eyes and leaned closer to her father. Her little heart melted with sadness as she looked at the shiny white coffin at the front of the church. Elaborate flower arrangements decorated its surroundings. Her mother lay sleeping in the white box. Sophie hoped she was warm and comfortable. How she wished she could tickle and wake her up, but her father had told her she would sleep until Jesus called her on the resurrection morning. Sophie didn't really understand what it meant, but she knew her mother would not be coming home to tuck her in before bed, play tickles with her or do tea parties. At the thought of going home without her mother, fresh tears cascaded down her cheeks and fell in fat wet blobs on her immaculate velvet black dress. Her body trembled, and she drowned the pastors' words he was saying about her mother, Celeste. Someone reached for her hand and squeezed it tight. She lifted her head slightly and saw her best friend and cousin Giselle with her big hazel eyes filled with tears, too. Relief filled Sophie as she grabbed hold of Giselle's hand in hers.
