Show Summary: What labels do you put on yourself? What labels have been put on you? We tend to define ourselves through both good and bad labels that shift over time. They may hype us up or tear us down as we get older, but God doesn't want us to live trapped in these labels. Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins, Elisa Morgan, and Vivian Mabuni as they look to Scripture to see how God sees us. Open your Bibles and get ready for this powerful God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “Words can have a lot of weight in our life when we're talking about labels. But we tend to forget how strong they can be [in a positive way.]” —Eryn Eddy Adkins “We are hard-wired to be in relationship with one another, and we become isolated from one another we can spiral out really quickly.” —Vivian Mabuni “God so desperately wants us to bring all of ourselves to Him, any labels that we're carrying, any circumstances that we feel shame about, that we are quietly suffering with.” —Eryn Eddy Adkins “Community reflects back who we really are.” —Eryn Eddy Adkins “You are loved. You are chosen. You are forgiven. You are made new. You are whole. You are restored.” —Eryn Eddy Adkins Verses: Matthew 9:20-22 Mark 5:25-34 Romans 8:38-39 1 Peter 2:9 Ephesians 1:7 2 Corinthians 5:17 Colossians 2:10 1 Peter 5:10 Philippians 4:8 Links: So Worth Loving: https://soworthloving.com/ God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/ MB01AFKMFPXFT0A

Guest Bio: After a harrowing riches-to-rags detour in life, Jennifer DiVita clung to her faith and rebuilt herself as a solo mom and professional career woman. Because of God's goodness, she found her way out of poverty and climbed the career ladder carrying her kids on her back to become Associate State Director of AARP. She's also an on-air personality with WOOD TV and ABC 4 who provides positive advice on aging well, despite initially being kicked out of TV for being “too seasoned.” She published her novel, Not Your Shoe Size, a witty story about growing older and finding the silver lining after becoming silver. Jennifer offers hope that it's possible to overcome roadblocks and pave a successful life after surrendering to God's plan. Show Summary: When we set out into our lives, we often have a plan of what we would like to do or achieve. What happens when our plan falls apart? Jennifer DiVita was a married woman and stay-at-home mom before her husband's addiction led to her life completely changing. Jennifer found herself having to rebuild what she thought was set in stone. Join hosts, Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni, as they talk with Jennifer about navigating career change while becoming a solo mom. You don't want to miss this inspiring God Hears Her conversation! Notes and Quotes: “God has used my story to help so many women, and I would not change one bit of it.” —Jennifer DiVita “I look at my story and know that Good is good because He did not leave me in that place. I look at the twists and turns of my life, and all that I've been through, but see where I've come.” —Jennifer DiVita “God has a redemption story for you. He already sees what's going on. —Jennifer DiVita Links: Jennifer's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jennifer.divita/ Jennifer's Website: https://www.jenniferdivita.com/ God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/ MB01SJDOI45MP8O

Guest Bio: Cathy Sall works at Our Daily Bread Ministries as a Project Manager. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her daughter Caili, either here in Michigan or out in Utah, mentoring a child through KIDS HOPE USA, attending Bible Study Fellowship, or reading. Cathy and Caili are planning a trip back to China in the near future, and her lifelong dream is to get to the Holy Land someday. Guest Bio: Caili Sall is studying social work at Southern Utah University. Caili has an adventurous spirit. She took a gap year between high school and college and spent 3 months in South Africa and 3 months in the Holy Land. She will be venturing out to Mannheim, Germany to study during her spring semester in 2025. She also loves running, snowboarding, and hiking with her friends. Show Summary: When we reflect on our stories, we are often left with memories that carry both joy and grief. Perhaps you got a job promotion while mourning the loss of a loved one, or you got bad news while celebrating a big event. We often have seasons of celebration that mix with times of mourning. Cathy and Caili Sall are a mother-daughter duo who have learned how to hold all of the feelings that come with adoption. Cathy was a single woman when she felt God call her to adopt Caili, an orphan in China. Together, they've learned how to navigate the ups and downs of their story while acknowledging the grief and pain that come with it. Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni as they hear the testimony of Cathy and Caili during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “In whatever happens along this journey, I need to trust that [God] is still walking beside me, and leading me and guiding me.” —Cathy Sall “If you're praying right now [about adoption] or God lays it on your heart, He will walk you through it. He will guide you through it, and He will walk each step with you.” —Cathy Sall “God gives us grace; He extends it to us so we can show ourselves grace [in our stories].” —Caili Sall “There's a lot of sorrow and grief in my adoption story. But I don't necessarily realize those bad things. To me, when I gain those strengths and things as a part of my story, I feel like I'm closer to the heart of Jesus.” —Caili Sall Verses: Ecclesiastes 1:18 Links: Caili's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cailisall/ Cathy's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cathy.sall God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/ MB01QE3FJAXIQZW

Show Summary: Do you ever take time to sit in silence? Do you feel like your schedule is too packed full to have time for yourself? When God created the world, He took time to rest, but we often find ourselves running from one thing to the next without a moment to spare. Vivian Mabuni recently took a Sabbatical. During that time, she discovered how her soul was able to internally settle while she spent quiet time with God. Join hosts Vivian Mabuni and Eryn Eddy Adkins for this God Hears Her conversation as they talk through how we can find times in our lives to rest and reflect. Notes and Quotes: “God keeps inviting us into this place of, ‘Will you trust me?' He will lead, and as a sheep, I will follow. And when He says go, I need to go. And when He says stay, I need to stay, and to not run ahead of Him.” —Vivian Mabuni “Am I prepared to see [God] turn beauty out of pain, and this be a longer road? Or will this be a shorter road where He does a miracle? In that waiting time is a real-time of needing to lay down our will, and trust Him with the outcome.” —Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni “We can't determine God based on our circumstances. We need to determine who God is based on His Word. . . God has revealed Himself, and we need to evaluate our circumstances in light of who He is.” —Vivian Mabuni Verses: Psalm 23 Jeremiah 17:7-8 Joshua 4:1-9 Links: Discover the Word: Taking Time to Rest, Reflect, and Renew: https://discovertheword.org/series/taking-time-to-rest-reflect-and-renew/ God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/ MB01DVFLIRV7JSF

Guest Bio: Brittany Hurd is a former theatrical professional who, in late 2020, went a few rounds with a brain tumor and lost her eyesight. A trained singer, she has redirected her gifts toward chanting the Psalms in a musical theater style on the YouTube channel Canticlear. But her primary job is making her new husband a better Thomist, as they both re-learn what it means to build a virtuous and flourishing home in light of and in response to her blindness. Show Summary: When we're growing up, we probably have an idea of what we want our lives to look like. We may plan along the way and eventually find ourselves exactly where we wanted to be. However, sometimes our plans look nothing like what God has for us. Unexpectedly, we get a scary medical diagnosis, or something significant happens that alters the course of our lives. Brittany Hurd was diagnosed with a brain tumor that ended up taking her eyesight. This has completely changed her life, and now she's navigating the change as a newlywed. Join hosts, Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni, as they learn how Brittany takes it day by day with God in the midst of unexpected change during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “The Lord promises strength for the day. He tells us to ask for our daily bread, not for tomorrow's bread, not for next week's bread, but today's.” —Brittany Hurd “Despite what truly is a bad thing, the Lord brings even a better thing out of it.” —Brittany Hurd “You don't have to do the big, showy, pastoral prayers, where all the words are just right. Just speak to the Lord. . . He always turns it to some resolution.” —Brittany Hurd Verses: Psalm 123 Matthew 6:11 Romans 8:26-27 Psalm 103 Links: Brittany's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Canticlear Brittany's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/canticlear God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/ MB01KAB7HUSOUZJ

Join hosts, Elisa Morgan and Vivian Mabuni, as they discover how to overcome disappointments with Lisa Victoria Fields during this God Hears Her conversation.

He is the only one who can heal your sin-sick soul, your broken heart, whatever is going on.

Guest Bio: Robin Long is the founder and CEO of Lindywell, a global mind-body wellness company that provides Pilates workouts, breathwork, and nutrition to help women build strength, reduce stress, and connect with their bodies. She is a certified Pilates instructor with more than a decade of experience teaching, writing, and guiding women in their health and wellness journeys. Show Summary: How many of us have started the new year with resolutions about exercise or dieting? We tend to go into the new year with high hopes about how we're going to change our lifestyle. What if the first step is actually reframing our mindset? Robin Long is a health and wellness expert who realized she needed to make big changes to alter a toxic cycle of exercising and overeating. Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni as they ring in the new year learning about how to have a balanced approach to health and wellness during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “We all have a journey that we've been on that informs how we relate to our body today, and how we relate to our self-care, exercise, and fitness.” —Robin Long When we aren't feeling well in our body, we go through our day with a level of stress, with a level of disengagement or anxiety, that can really affect our relationships and how we feel.” —Robin Long “How do we break that all-or-nothing mentality? How do we disconnect the belief that wellness equals weight loss. . . or whatever your definition of wellness equals, whatever is on the outside.” —Robin Long God says we are good, and that He created us in His image. So knowing that we are good as we are today, we don't have to change the size of our thighs. We don't have to change the shape of our bodies. We don't have to change who we are in order to be called good, to be called worthy and loved. —Robin Long Links: Robin's Website: https://lindywell.com/ Robin's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robinmarielong/ God Hears Her website: https://godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Our Daily Bread Ministries website: https://www.odbm.org/ MB01VPJCNCPVUGB

Have you ever had a terrible Christmas? Do you find yourself getting caught up in making things look perfect, even though you're exhausted or feeling alone?

Join hosts Elisa Morgan, Eryn Eddy Adkins, and Vivian Mabuni as they trace the Lord's promises throughout Scripture to remind us of Immanuel, God with us.

Guest Bio: Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez (MSW, MSEd) is a truth-teller and space builder committed to helping the Body of Christ be healthy and holy. She is the founder of Full Collective, creator of the annual Sowers Summit, and host of the Being a Sanctuary podcast. She has spoken at conferences such as Proverbs 31 and Verity Conference and has written for Chasing Justice and She Reads Truth. She recently published a book with Brazos Press (An Imprint of Baker Publishing Group) titled Being a Sanctuary: The Radical Way for the Body of Christ to be Sacred, Soft, and Safe. Pricelis is currently pursuing a master of arts in biblical and theological studies from Denver Seminary and is a proud Black Latina born and raised in New York City, where she currently resides with her husband and son. Show Summary: Do you ever feel like you're running on empty? Maybe your schedule is filled and you feel like you have no time to do the things you want to do or spend time with people you miss. Sometimes we feel empty because we're lacking a community that can help fulfill our needs or lend a hand. Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez realized that women were running themselves dry while simultaneously missing out on a devoted community to spend time with. She founded The Full Collective with the hope of bringing women together to experience the fullness that God wants us to have through Him in our lives. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Vivian Mabuni as they learn more about The Full Collective and how we can find fullness through Christ and community during this episode of God Hears Her. Notes and Quotes: “No matter what the battle that has come forth is, no matter what has tried to be stolen, destroyed, or killed in their life, that does not change the fullness that God has for us.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez “I was very much in search of God, but I was looking for Him in a lot of things, a lot of different people, and a lot of different places. . . . I was filled with remembering that I am loved and seen by God, and that He's actually been pursuing me and running after me all these years I've been running away from Him.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez “We have to bring our questions to the feet of Jesus.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez “We need to remember that our faith is not individualized. Although our salvation is individual, the work that the body of Christ is called to do on Earth is a collective work.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez “What is absolute truth is that Jesus came to give us life, and life to the full.” —Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez Verses: John 10:10 Matthew 28:18-20 1 Corinthians 12:26 Jeremiah 29:11 John 14:26 Psalm 23:6 John 7:38 Links: Learn more about The Full Collective Pricelis' book God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ MB01JRU4C2PA0FU

Without being afraid that there will be repercussions if you show up?” —Natalie Hoffman “The egregious nature of spiritual abuse is that it drives a wedge between the survivor and God—her lifeline.” —Natalie Hoffman “My religious beliefs are what kept me in that [abusive] relationship for so many years, but my relationship with God is what got me out.” —Natalie Hoffman “God was my rescuer—not the church, not my friends, and not my family of origin.” —Natalie Hoffman “I listen to my former self—that younger version of myself—and I decided that I was going to be a witness to her pain.” —Natalie Hoffman Verses: Psalm 121:1-2 Links: Natalie's website: https://www.flyingfreenow.com/ Natalie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flyingfreesisterhood/ God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ MB01MZCQPFRUZFN
Guest Bio: Orsika's childhood was magical. As an adult, her choices were less than amazing. She moved from one failed relationship to another, had three children, and lost direction in life. She felt as though she let everyone down. Having experienced domestic violence, Orsika knew something had to change. She hit rock bottom and clearly understood the years of abuse were going to drastically transform her life for the better. Her healing journey began well after escaping the abuse. Orsika lived through the pain, the shame, and the guilt of making decisions that brought sorrow and potential unforgiveness. She understands, firsthand, the feelings of loneliness and desperation. Orsika also knows the journey to healing is through our Lord and Savior, Jesus. Show Summary: When we enter into a new relationship, sometimes we get caught up in the joy and excitement and we fail to recognize potential red flags. Orsika Fejer-Baas was in her second marriage when she started to recognize behaviors that hurt her. After a traumatic event, she was able to escape with her children and start her healing journey. Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni as they learn the signs of emotional and financial abuse with Orsika as she shares her story during this God Hears Her conversation. If you or someone you know is in an abusive situation, please call 1-800-799-7233 or visit this website. Notes and Quotes: “Life isn't perfect, but those are the times when we lean into God more. Those are the times when we cry at His feet and ask for Him to help us through things.” —Orsika Fejer-Baas “Through God I found myself, and I wasn't going to settle for anything less except the best for me.” —Orsika Fejer-Baas “There's a very fine line between, ‘Oh, does this person care for me?”, or “Is this person trying to control me?'” —Orsika Fejer-Baas “I never felt like Jesus left me. . . I knew Jesus was there. And now, I'm able to speak more openly because I have that confidence, and I allow the Holy Spirit to work through me.” —Orsika Fejer-Baas “If my being open to the Holy Spirit to work through me helps one person, then it's all worth it.” —Orsika Fejer-Baas Links: God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Check out Orsika's Where Ya From?

Guest Bio: Deb Hopper spent the first 25 years of her professional career serving in the church and working in the corporate world. After 10 years as the women's pastor at Seacoast Church, she now pursues family ministry and is founder/CEO of a non-profit organization serving single moms called SEEN Moms. Married for 30 years to Gibson Hopper, she has three daughters, two sons-in-love, and eleven grandchildren. Show Summary: When was the last time you reached a moment where the only thing you could do was surrender your circumstance to the Lord? Deb Hopper was a single mom with two daughters when a good friend of hers sat her down and told her about a method of praying that would help her surrender her stresses to God. She knew God would answer in His way and in His timing, but she fully placed her needs into His hands. Join Deb as she shares her story with God Hears Her hosts Vivian Mabuni and Eryn Eddy Adkins during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “I used the [Ask, Seek, Knock] principle to reach up to God out of the pit, to trust Him, and believe He could help me in the most complex areas of my life, and the most simplest of things.” —Deb Hopper “I don't think we talk about answered prayers enough. But in reality, He does move. He does answer prayers. And if we don't talk about them in our natural, everyday life, then why would people pray?” —Deb Hopper “But once I took that first step, God provided the obvious answer for me.” —Deb Hopper “We need God's light to shine on our answers. We need to go to His Word. We need to ask, ‘Does this line up with what God says? Is this true?' ” —Deb Hopper “[God] has the plan. And if you're faithful to do the next right thing, He doesn't waste a minute of it.” —Deb Hopper “Acknowledging God in the promotion, in a child being born, in the marriage, we are acknowledging that we didn't do it on our own. It was God with us, guiding us, and showing us.” —Deb Hopper Verses: Matthew 7:7 1 Samuel 7:3-12 Links: SEEN moms: https://www.seenmoms.org/ God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ MB01OSSZO8UPX9T
Guest Bio: Emily E. Ryan is a minister's wife, mother of four, and junior high English teacher who first dedicated her writing life to the Lord when she was a child. She quickly learned, however, that writing about Jesus could only come after walking with Him through hard times. In this season of life—full of teens, tweens, and all the beautiful noise and chaos that comes with them—she is familiar with the struggle to find those rare, quiet moments and claim them for Jesus. She writes about this struggle in her upcoming book Guilt-Free Quiet Times, where she encourages women with practical creativity to ditch guilt and embrace grace in their devotional time with the Lord. Emily and her family live in the great state of Texas, but you can find her online at emilyeryan.com or through her Guideposts devotions in ' Mornings with Jesus. Show Summary: What comes to mind when you think of spending time with the Lord? Do you picture your favorite comfy chair with your Bible and a steaming mug of coffee? Or do you see yourself frantically running around the house apologizing to God while you chase a toddler who has interrupted your quiet time. . . .again. Emily E. Ryan wants to help women reimagine their quiet time with the Lord by lifting up the guilt we sometimes feel. The stigma of ‘quiet time' doesn't have to be silent time spent in your house with the Lord. Join hosts, Vivian Mabuni and Eryn Eddy Adkins, as they learn how to have guilt-free quiet time during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “God shows Himself to us whenever we ask for our spiritual eyes to be opened.” —Emily E. Ryan “God promised something good from this, so I'm going to start looking for that.” —Emily E. Ryan “God is not calling us into this perfect, little checklist quiet time, He's calling us into a deeper, intimate relationship with Him.” —Emily E. Ryan The Lord has given us so much more choice into how we approach our spiritual disciples than we realize.” —Emily E. Ryan “Whenever we have conviction, it always leads to a solution. If the Holy Spirit convicts your heart, then He's doing so to lead you closer.” —Emily E. Ryan “The highs and lows are going to happen regardless. It's where they are leading you in the end. Are they leading you to the Lord, and is your faith growing?” —Emily E.

Here, you'll find engaging conversations and important questions that help us connect to the body of Christ despite what the culture believes to be true.This season, we are learning how the enemy misleads church girls and to what lengths the Lord goes to restore our faith in Him.JOHN 16:7-11Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth. It is for your benefit that I go away, because if I don't go away the Counselor will not come to you. If I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will convict the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment: About sin, because they do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see me; and about judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.MEET VIVIANVivian Mabuni is a national speaker, author, bible teacher and podcast host.

Guest Bio: Anh Lin is an interior stylist and the founder of the cozy online shop, TheHoogaShop.com. She is a debut author with her new book, Forever Home, and she is now living with her husband and corgi in a renovated fixer-upper. Show Summary: Have you ever looked at a space and felt excited by all of the work that needs to be done on it? Maybe you renovated your home, decorated an apartment, or even organized your car trunk in a cute way for all of the running around you do. What if we looked at our hearts as rooms with potential? What if we saw healing as internally renovating? Anh Lin was in the midst of renovating and designing a new home when the Lord opened her eyes to see how the process was similar to our internal healing process. Join hosts, Eryn Eddy Adkins and Vivian Mabuni as they talk with Anh about seeing the possibilities for our healing during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “You don't have to go big to feel the impact of a changed environment.” —Anh Lee “Surround ourselves with people that are for us, that support us, that are trauma-informed, walk through it with us, and most importantly show us that there is a reality outside of what we think is possible for us.” —Anh Lee “Find community—it's more healing than you think.” —Anh Lee “It was as if God was saying, ‘You can leave this memory because I'm staying here with her. I'm going to save her one day.'” —Anh Lee “There's no shame being where [you] are at mentally, and God can handle [your] timing, [your] pacing because He's a very patient God. He's a gentle Father.” —Anh Lee “For the woman who is feeling so isolated, so misunderstood, know that God is going to continue being active in your life, loving you in ways you might not see now, but will eventually see His fingerprints on all the times you've been hurting.” —Anh Lee Links: Anh's Book Forever Home: https://www.girlandtheword.com/ God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Anh's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlandtheword/ MB01MRYQQZ4KRK7

Guest Bio: Shannon Popkin is the author of Comparison Girl, Control Girl, and (forthcoming) Shaped by God's Promises (Our Daily Bread Publishing, 2024). Shannon is a speaker and hosts the Live Like It's True Bible podcast. For more from Shannon, visit shannonpopkin.com, or connect with her on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube. Show Summary: What are some promises God gives in His Word that you hold on to? God is a Promise Keeper, but all through Scripture we see examples of His people taking things into their own hands. Author and speaker Shannon Popkin has spent some time looking into how Sarah and Abraham immediately discounted the promises God gave them. Shannon realized that even when God makes His ways known, we tend to want things in our timing. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Vivian Mabuni as they talk with Shannon about how God is a promise keeper on this episode of God Hears Her. Notes and Quotes: “I like to think of God's promises as a set of parentheses, you never have one parenthesis without the other. The first is God makes the promise, the second is God keeps the promise.” —Shannon Popkin “Most of our [life is spent] living in the parentheses and waiting in the parentheses for the promises to come about.” —Elisa Morgan “We don't learn God's faithfulness in a minute. We see His faithfulness over time.” —Shannon Popkin “God will be faithful, He is a faithful God. He is a God who makes promises and keeps promises, and He invites us to live like it's true that He will keep these promises to us.” —Shannon Popkin Verses: John 3:1-21 Matthew 19:14 Genesis 12 Joshua 24:1-4, 14-15 Genesis 3 Matthew 27 Genesis 50:20 Ruth 4 Hebrews 11 John 15:1-17 Links: God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Shaped By God's Promises: https://www.shannonpopkin.com/my-books/ Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Shannon's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shannonpopkin/ MB01Y1MQUWEIJEH
Guest Bio: Rochelle Traub loves interacting with people whether it's connecting with friends over a relaxing dinner, creating memories with family in the funny moments of life, or communicating through words and voice in her marketing job at Our Daily Bread Ministries. She's been married to her best friend, Kevin, for 31 years and together they have three children, including their youngest daughter who was adopted from China. Rochelle looks forward to her morning “walk and talk” sessions with her exercise buddy, skiing in Colorado with family, reading a good book while sipping steaming hot coffee, and traveling pretty much anywhere. She is thankful for God's grace and goodness in her life, and her life goal is to share the gift of Jesus. Show Summary: When was a moment you felt God was calling you to something? Have you had any clear moments like that? Did you face obstacles while trying to make that calling a reality? Rochelle Traub felt called to adopt, but for a long time her husband did not. As they prayed together through that season they both eventually felt the call. However, the adoption process led them through more years of waiting. Join hosts Eryn Adkins and Vivian Mabuni as they learn more about Rochelle's story during the years of her waiting season during this God Hears Her conversation. Notes and Quotes: “Watching my children be their own people, and letting them be their own people, that God has provided a journey for each one of us.” —Rochelle Traub “They are all so different, and God has gifted them with what they are supposed to be doing.” —Rochelle Traub “My job as a mom is to know, what I had in hope for you, is not necessarily what God has in mind for you.” —Rochelle Traub “God has that child picked out for you, but He will bring His plan to fruition.” —Rochelle Traub “However we think it's going to go, or want it to go, you have to trust Jesus and hold His hand because His plan is best.” —Rochelle Traub Verses: Psalm 46:10 Ephesians 1:4–5 Links: Rochelle's Daughter's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/savedbygrace_2008_/ God Hears Her website: https://www.godhearsher.org/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://www.godhearsher.org/sign-upsfmc Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast ODB for Kids, Volume 1 link to ODBP Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ MB01LNR3MGBYLGA

I am so eager to share this conversation with you on a life of surrender, living with fresh faith, and what discipleship looks like. We talk about everything from surviving cancer to valuing ethnic heritage to building a thriving marriage. Let's dive in! Show Notes: Open Hands, Willing Heart by Vivian Mabuni John 15:4-11 - “Abide in me, and I in you…” Vivian's Discipleship message at If:Gathering - https://youtu.be/QhexfN4d8Q8?si=iTz-3cD8MG_YOAj- Website: https://www.vivianmabuni.com/ Podcast Someday is Here: https://www.vivianmabuni.com/someday-is-here Family Life Marriage conferences: https://www.familylife.com/weekend-to-remember/ IG: @vivmabuni “Would we live a life of surrender. When we have open hands, God is free to put things in our lives, remove things from our lives. We don't have control over those things. We can grip our hands or we can open our hands.” “God is released to move in our lives when we have a willing heart. And that's one that says, ‘I'm ALL IN.'” “As hard as cancer was, there was still an underlying confidence…I knew the Lord's got me.” “I think that's what fresh faith looks like - that we are continually having to step out and trust Him in ways where we can't figure it out.” “Our ethnic heritage does affect how we do life.” “The way that Jesus wanted us to reach the world was impacting people who would impact people who would impact people.” “Ministry is not life. My kids are not my life. Jesus is life.” “There's a difference between impression and impact.” “Anything that's worthwhile requires work.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/whits-end/message

And what I have to say matters. And what I need matters.” —Katherine Catlett “In losing parts of myself that I loved, I also discovered parts of myself that I love just as much.” —Katherine Catlett “If God calls you somewhere, and if you go, He's never going to abandon you to fend for yourself.

Can you believe Christmas is this Sunday?! What a year this has been! I cannot believe this is the final episode of 2022. I'm closing out December with a conversation with my dear friend Vivian Mubani! Vivian is no stranger to The Happy Hour – she was my guest on Episodes #59 and #251. Today we talk about her podcast, Someday Is Here (which is on our Ivey Media Podcasts network!), her hope for the Asian American Pacific Islanders (AAPI) community, her cancer journey, and why representation matters. Vivian's podcast is targeted towards Asian Americans, and she shares about the AAPI community and how the intersection of the eastern and western worlds impacts our faith, our leadership, and how we do life. Although Someday Is Here is meant to speak to the unique experience of Asian Americans, Vivian also welcomes those who do not identify as such, because Vivian understands that we are better when we are learning together. I have learned so much from my dear friend about the AAPI community and I hope you will join me in learning more about why the representation of these brothers and sisters really matters. A big THANK YOU to all of our Happy Hour listeners this year! This show wouldn't be possible with you all, and I am so grateful that you take time out of your day to listen!Have a Merry Christmas, friends!
