Are written prayers biblical or just empty tradition? If you've ever felt like praying someone else's words isn't "sincere" or questioned whether liturgical prayers belong in the Christian life, this episode will challenge your assumptions and open up a rich tradition of faith. Did Jesus forbid scripted prayers in Matthew 6:6–7? Many Christians assume prayer must always be spontaneous. But throughout both Jewish and early Christian worship, written prayers were a normal part of community life.In this episode, we look at the history of liturgical prayer and why Acts 2:42 says the early believers devoted themselves to “the prayers.” We'll also talk about how written prayers can strengthen—not replace—your personal conversations with God. We will also explore the beauty and biblical foundation of liturgical prayers, from the Psalms (which are themselves written prayers) to the Book of Common Prayer and prayers written by early church fathers like Polycarp. Many American evangelicals dismiss written prayers as "ritualistic" or empty tradition, but Scripture shows us that God gave us the Psalms to pray, Jesus gave us the Lord's Prayer to pray, and faithful Christians throughout history have used written prayers to train themselves in adoration, confession, and thanksgiving—not just requests. I also share a few favorite historic prayer resources and simple ways to turn Scripture into your own prayers.Shop Prayer Resources⦿ Every Woman a Theologian Shop: https://phyliciamasonheimer.com/shop Our Spring Shop is live and filled with new prayer-focused resources including the Praying the Psalms Scripture Guide and Not-So-Quiet Time: Psalms Volume 1, a multisensory guide that you can use alone or as a family discipleship tool.Watch the full Verity Podcast Prayer Series: https://www.youtube.com/@veritypodcastSubscribe to Verity Podcast: https://apple.co/veritypodcastVerity Podcast is an Every Woman a Theologian company.

Watching your child struggle—whether with friendships, health, or their faith—is a journey no parent is ever prepared for. In today's episode, our storyteller reminds us what it looks like to keep praying, even when God feels silent.   Leslie Hedge, who shared her story with our community group in Fairhope, Alabama, watched her son struggle socially through his adolescent years. Her heart broke when he eventually walked away from his faith and declared himself an atheist. That heartbreak turned into fear and panic when an unexpected health crisis suddenly put his life at risk. Yet, as Leslie witnessed God working in miraculous, behind-the-scenes ways to save her son's life, her hope was renewed. She became confident that the same God who preserved his life would one day restore his heart. Listen in as Leslie shares the powerful ways God brought healing, redemption, and hope back into her son's story.   VERSE OF THE WEEK: "Now to him who can do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us." Ephesians 3:20   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Is there an area of your life where you feel God is silent in your prayers? Be encouraged and find rest in knowing God sees you, hears you, knows you, and cares for you!   _____________________________________________________________   Listen to a similar story: Ep. 198- Zoe Tenner: "Letting Go of Control:: A Mother/Daughter Story."   Download a phone background of the weekly verse HERE!   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Leslie and any of our past storytellers!   Join us "In the Room" on Patreon to access new stories straight from our live gatherings around the country!   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series~ Stories of Hope, Stories of Freedom, Stories of Faith Are you interested in one-on-one coaching with our very own Robyn Kown!?  Click HERE!   Check out all of our live speaking engagement opportunities on our website.   Sign up to receive StoryTellers Live's weekly newsletter for updates and details on our live gatherings.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!How do you cope when the deepest wounds come not from a sworn enemy, but from a trusted and familiar friend? Where do you turn when the sheer panic and pain of personal betrayal make you just want to grow wings like a dove and fly far, far away from it all? In this devotional on Psalm 55, we walk through David’s desperate prayer of anguish—a Maskil written in the agonizing wake of being stabbed in the back by a close confidant, his top advisor Ahithophel. We shift our focus from the paralyzing sting of emotional trauma to the beautiful, messy progression of biblical lament, recognizing how David moves from panic and a desire to escape, straight into petition and renewed trust. We explore what it means to cast our crushing burdens upon the eternal God, uncovering the profound realization that while human friends might miss our texts or calls, the Lord hears our complaints evening, morning, and noon. We move past the instinct to simply run from our pain to the deeper truth: that God gives us full permission to process our darkest grief, anxiety, and frustration directly at His feet. Join host Jaime on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of spiritual recalibration and honest lament. If you are navigating the heartbreak of broken trust, feeling overwhelmed by division within your community, or simply need a gentle reminder to take your problems to God before anyone else, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective.Come ready to lay down your heaviest anxieties, pray for unity within the body of Christ, and declare the unshakeable, sustaining power of the Lord over your life.

Heartbreak, a breakup, a long waiting season, and a lot of trusting God. I'm sitting down with my best friend Alyssa to interview her about her unexpected love story. I've know Alyssa from all the way back to my LA days. Alyssa shares her incredible love story with her fiancé, Regan. What makes their story so powerful is that it wasn't a straight path. Alyssa and Reagan met at church and dated for several months before realizing the relationship wasn't healthy at the time. Even though they loved each other, they chose to walk away. During the year they were apart, Alyssa focused on seeking the Lord through prayer, fasting, journaling, and community—even when it was painful. Eventually, God redeems it. Listen for the full story! This episode is a reminder that God's timing is different from ours, but when we surrender our relationships to Him, He can redeem and restore in ways we never expected.

Jump start your week with a Jump Start REWIND, read by Roger Shouse.

Watching Amazon Prime while the Iranians burn. Stuffing our mouths with cheesysugarbacon while the sky turns black over Tehran. Laughing without smiling. Laughing with full mouths and empty eyes while their water mixes with oil and blood. "Hoho this will hurt Trump in the midterms" the liberal chortles, masturbating furiously while ruined parents pull ruined schoolbags out of ruined schools. Frolicking on lawns with hamburgers in both fists doing patchouli tai chi in clothes made by slaves as black rain waters gardens of severed limbs and blown-out eyeballs. This is our culture. This is our religion. Praying to Pornhub while children scream, telling ourselves it will all be worth it when Iranian women can do OnlyFans to pay for boob jobs and butt lifts and go to Capitalist Heaven when they die. Jizzing Taco Bells and bail bonds firms all over the global south, our bellies full of the flesh of children, our veins full of plastic and our mouths full of Lexapro, dancing at the ballroom covered in blood and brains, gyrating to AI-generated music cranked up to maximum volume to hide the sounds of the explosions and the gasps of our dying souls. Oh I'm sorry, am I bumming you out? Have a hamburger and a Xanax. Everything's fine. This is all normal. Let's pick the bits of skull and teeth from our hair and go party. Reading by Tim Foley.

Hi friends! Real Life Decluttering Week is a 7-day decluttering challenge designed for busy Christian women who want a calmer home without spending hours organizing. Each day includes: • a short Scripture reflection • one simple decluttering action (10–15 minutes or less) • practical guidance to help your home support your real life If you're a midlife Christian mom balancing family, work, marriage, and service to others, this series will help you clear the physical clutter that often clouds our focus and drains our energy. Instead of tackling everything at once, we take small, faithful steps toward a home that functions well and supports the life God has called you to live. Because God is not the author of confusion — and peace often begins with clearing what no longer belongs. xo Praying this series encourages and motivates you! 

In Part 4 of The Lord's Prayer series, Pastor Terrell explores Jesus' instruction to pray, “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” While many of our prayers focus on what we want or need, Jesus teaches that prayer is ultimately about aligning our hearts with God's purposes. Praying for God's Kingdom means inviting His rule and priorities into every area of our lives—our relationships, decisions, and future. It shifts our focus from temporary comforts to eternal impact and reminds us that what matters to God should matter to us.The message also highlights the difference between God's revealed will, which we discover through Scripture and obedience, and His hidden will, which unfolds in His timing even when we don't understand it. True surrender means being willing to say, like Jesus in Gethsemane, “Not my will, but yours be done.” When we stop trying to build our own kingdom and instead trust God with our lives, we find peace, purpose, and the security of living inside the will of God.

B"H My heart is filled with gratitude right now. For the holy heroes serving in Tzahal, in the IDF, in the American army, and for their families who carry the weight of that service with them. Their courage and devotion protect lives and stand up for what is good in this world. In Judaism there is a concept called mesirat nefesh, the giving of the soul. When a person devotes themselves completely to what matters most, they touch the highest place of the neshama, a place beyond ego and beyond the self. So many people are living with that spirit right now. For the rest of us, our task is to serve with our own mesirat nefesh. To live our purpose with devotion, to pray, to support, and to strengthen the good in the world. Hashem oz le'amo yiten. Hashem should give His people strength. Hashem yevarech et amo bashalom. May Hashem bless His people with peace. Praying for shalom for Israel, for America, for the people of Iran, and for the entire world. #Peace #IDF #Israel #Iran #USA To watch Torah Thoughts in video format, click HERE Subscribe to the Torah Thoughts BLOG for exclusive written content!

In this message, TA teaches from Acts 5:12–42 and shows what should mark the church. In the early church, believers gathered together, prayed for those who were sick, and saw God work powerfully as people were healed and “more than ever” believed in Jesus. At the same time, the apostles faced opposition and were arrested, but they continued preaching with boldness, saying, “We must obey God rather than men.” This passage reminds us to be a church that prays for healing, prays for people to know Jesus, and lives boldly for the gospel.

Philippians 1:3-11

A prayer asking God to treat his people differently than those who are not his own.

Sunday, March 8, 2026 – Pastor Justin delivers a message titled, “Moving on to Maturity,” based on Acts 2:42-47. In this message, he encourages us to emulate the early church in four key areas. As the early church was forming, Peter encourages them to continue in the 1. Apostle’s doctrines – which means studying together and growing in like faith. 2. Fellowship – meaning building community and living life together beyond just Sunday mornings. 3. Breaking bread – referring not only to sharing daily meals but also to honoring the Lord’s Table of communion and remembering Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. 4. Praying together – which involves sharing burdens by taking them to God in Jesus' name. Let’s put this into action in our lives and be the Church in our community. Come worship and study with us...

Praying to Your Father (Matthew 6:9-10)Four Aspects of How We Ought to PrayI. RelationalII. God-Centered III. Kingdom-MindedIV. Future-Looking“If you want to judge how well a person understands Christianity, find out how much he makes of the thought of being God's child, and having God as his Father. If this is not the thought that prompts and controls his worship and prayers and his whole outlook on life, it means that he does not understand Christianity very well at all. For everything that Christ taught, everything that makes the New Testament new, and better than the Old, everything that is distinctively Christian as opposed to merely Jewish, is summed up in the knowledge of the Fatherhood of God. ‘Father' is the Christian name for God” (J. I. Packer).

After briefly discussing a variety of opinions held by folks across the political landscape, we then move to one topic that very few are discussing, the state of the persecuted church in Iran. This factor should cause us to pray fervently for the future of Iran, to pray for an Iran where the gospel can flow freely, where Christians are not persecuted, and where God's glory is put on display!Resourceshttps://ishr.org/iran-shocking-statistics-of-christian-persecution-latest-individual-fates/https://persecution.org/2025/04/09/the-brutal-persecution-of-iranian-christians-is-growing/https://www.state.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/441219-IRAN-2022-INTERNATIONAL-RELIGIOUS-FREEDOM-REPORT.pdfhttps://www.newsmax.com/draft-stories/donald-trump-iran-surrender/2026/03/06/id/1248565/https://www.namb.net/apologetics/resource/historical-muhammad-the-good-bad-downright-ugly/

One of the most common accusations against Christians is that they're "hypocrites". While this accusation is often not justified, sometimes it is. Today we will look at 1st Samuel 2, which is a study in contrasts. We'll see the contrasts between a godly woman, hypocritical leaders, and a godly young man. Join us for another practical study in God's Word. DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    In our study, yesterday, of 1st Samuel 1, what did Hannah pray? What did she do with Samuel when the Lord answered her prayer? 2.    Verses 1 to 11 contains one of the longest prayers from a woman in the entire Bible. It's a beautiful prayer. As you read over this prayer, how does Hannah's prayer life and the content of her prayers compare to yours? 3.    In verse 1, what is Hannah's view of the Lord? Why does she exalt Him? 4.    In verses 2 - 4, what does Hannah exult about the Lord? 5.    What are the doctrines of God that Hannah praises God for in verses 6 to 10? Are there places where you can you follow her example and bring rich doctrine into your prayers? Which ones? Are any of these doctrines difficult for you to even pray? If so, why?  6.    In a bit of spiritual whiplash, now we look at the example of Eli's sons Hophni and Phinehas. How are they described in verse 12? How do their actions in this chapter confirm this description of them? 7.    What would they do in verses 13 to 16? How is this a violation of the sacredness that was necessary for the sacrifices in the book of Leviticus? 8.    What is the Lord's view of their actions in verse 17? 9.    How did they respond to Eli's admonishments in verses 22 - 25? How should they have responded to him?  10.    In verse 29, what did the Lord say to Eli about his own values when it comes to things of the Lord? How is it possible to put our children before the Lord today? How can we guard against this possibility? 11.    How would you describe this hypocrisy of Eli and his sons? What were its roots? How should it have been rooted out? 12.    What was the Lord's judgment upon them in verses 31 to 34?  13.    In verse 35, who will God raise up instead? In verses 18 and 26, how was Samuel different from these men? 14.    This chapter gives us a powerful example of contrasts. What were the contrasts between Hannah and Eli's sons and Samuel? As you think about your own life, is there any area of hypocrisy that needs to be rooted out? Are there any steps you can take to be more like Hannah and Samuel?

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today! How do you defend yourself when the people you trusted most become the very ones seeking your downfall? Where do you turn when you need more than just a temporary helper, but a true advocate to stand beside you in the courtroom of life? In this devotional on Psalm 54, we walk through David's desperate prayer for defense—a Maskil written after being completely sold out by his own kindred, the Ziphites. We shift our focus from the sting of betrayal to the profound, ancient legal language of God as the "sustainer of our souls." We explore what it means for the Almighty to step into the role of our legal Defender, uncovering the beautiful thread that connects David's protector to Jesus's promise of the Holy Spirit. We move past surface-level comforts to the deeper truth: that God didn't just send an angel to assist you; He sent the Paraclete—another of the exact same kind—to live within you and plead your case before the Father. Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of spiritual recalibration. If you are feeling accused, overwhelmed by opposition, or simply need a reminder of who is standing at your right hand, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective. Come ready to embrace your Intercessor, wield the secret weapon of praise, and declare the unshakeable victory of your Advocate before the battle is even over.

Are you having a Lenty Lent? It may feel like your failing or things are going wrong, but maybe you are right where the Lord wants you. Its just a bit of pain from the composting process of our souls.  Lent is not a gloomy interruption of life. It is the Church handing us winter on purpose.   In the garden, winter strips everything down. The bright flowers are gone. The branches look skeletal. You walk outside and think, Nothing is happening here.   But beneath the surface, roots are deepening. The soil is being replenished. Worms are turning what fell and died into nourishment. What looks like stillness is actually preparation.   Lent does the same.   It takes away the noise. It asks us to fast. To sit in silence. To feel our hunger instead of numbing it. To look honestly at what needs pruning in our lives. And at first it feels like a loss. Like grey skies feel to me today. Like not being able to see more than a few feet in front of you.   But Lent is not about deprivation for its own sake. It is about increasing capacity. Uniting ourselves to Christ in his passion. Praying in the garden of Gethsemane. Facing Calvery.    When you prune a plant, you cut away what once looked fruitful. You remove even good branches so that better fruit can grow. That is uncomfortable. It feels like diminishment. But the gardener is thinking ahead to spring.   And the compost pile is not a symbol of failure. It is where the old life breaks down so it can become nourishment for new life. In the spiritual life, our disappointments, our faliures, our surrendered dreams, even our grief, none of it is wasted. Given to God, it becomes rich soil.   Lent is when we allow that decomposition to happen.    We stop clinging. We let attachments die. We allow deeper parts of the heart to awaken. The grey days reveal what the bright days sometimes hide. They show us how much we depend on consolation instead of God Himself.   And then Easter comes.   Not as a surprise, but as fulfillment. The buds that appear are not random. They are the result of hidden work. The joy feels fuller because we remember the winter. The Alleluia sounds louder because we walked through the silence.   Spring does not erase Lent. It proves it was necessary.   I'm trying to die to myself and give God my fiat. This Lent I'm also saying "I am the handmade of the Lord, be it done unto me according to your word". I'm surrendering myself to the hands of the Gardener.   And I pray for patience while the compost of my soul continues decomposing, I remind myself  that growth cannot be rushed. His ways are not my ways. But I trust and surrender.    The Gardener knows when to prune. He knows when to wait. He knows when to bring the sun.   And even when you can only see three feet in front of you, the roots are going deeper than you realize.
