Listen Now

It’s been such a great start to the year! Today the Grace Warriors talk about the peace we can experience in the midst of suffering. Sara and Kathy talk about shifting seasons and how the Lord gives and takes away during different times in our lives. His word talks about the tribulation we WILL experience here on earth, from our brokenness and others! It can be painful to lose certain relationships, jobs, or hobbies but living with hands open and heart surrendered is when the peace of God can wash over us. His peace is His gift to us but He won’t force it on anyone, you get to choose to love and follow him. Make the choice with us today friends and experience the joy that can only come in relationship with your savior!

We’re back talking all about love, again! We have been on the subject of God’s love this month and since it is the LAST day of February, episode 90 is our final “love’ episode. But trust me, it will come back up because everything goes back to His love! Today Sara and Kathy talk about some of the other characteristics of God within His all encompassing love and what that means for us as believers. Remember, He watches over your coming and your going, even when it doesn’t feel like it. Trust in Him and His promises. We love you friends!

This week Sara and Kathy are back going through the gospel prayer! They’re revisiting this awesome prayer as a reminder and recenter. In times of suffering, we can struggle to hold tight to what is true. The world, the enemy and our own minds can distract us from the simple truths of the gospel. We’re so grateful for a Father who sent His son so that we may have deep, untethered communion with Him. He’s such a good God who not only loves deeply but cultivated all of history and time to bring you here, right now, for a purpose, to live in His authority and strength and to allow Him to be your God and you to be His people! Praise God! He is intentional in every detail and He never stops pursuing us. Rest in Him and create space for Him to move and breathe life into you today. You are all beautiful women made in the image of the Almighty God!

We’re back and creeping up to 100 episodes so so quickly! We can’t believe this is episode 88! Sara and Kathy hop on today’s episode to do a “refresher”! They start with talking through the amazing relationships they have formed from the podcast and the intentional ways YOU all have encouraged them both, right when they needed it! We are so thankful for all of you! Seriously, the love you guys show us never gets old. Listen in today and walk back with us as we explore the gospel again and remember the entire purpose we are Christians, and the entire reason we have this podcast, it’s because of Jesus. The Father loves us so much that He created a way to have a holy, righteous relationship with us and that wasn’t through anything you and I ever did, that was through Him sending His only son to live the perfect life then die, bearing the weight of all of our sin, then defeating sin and death 3 days later and now He is alive and seated at the right hand of God! And WHOEVER believes in Him will have eternal life. Dive into this truth today, it will be the best thing you’ve ever given your life to!

Welcome back to part two of our interview with Suzanne Wheeler! This week Suzanne shares more details about specific hard things she has walked through and the anger she has had toward God. Yes, she had many moments of anger towards God and we are so encouraged to hear how she handled her honest feelings. Suzanne has been such a joy to have on the Grace Warriors podcast. We’re praying that her story encourages your Christian walk and desire for the Word. He’s present in all circumstances, even our disappointments and anger. Are you experiencing anger toward God? Let’s dive into that together and search God’s word!

We’re back with another interview! This week the Grace Warriors podcast is featuring Suzanne Wheeler. Suzanne was such a joy to interview this week! Her story is inspiring, grounding, authentic, hard and amazing. God has done a significant work in Suzanne’s heart through incredibly tough circumstances. This podcast episode is such an encouragement to us as believers and her story is allowing our team to cling to the promises of God all the more! We hope this fills your cup to tackle your week as you lay down the life of striving and wrap your fingers around your Father’s hand knowing you also won’t be shaken!

Alright Grace Warriors, it’s time to get real! This week’s episode was fully brought on by the Holy Spirit while Sara was out at her lake house retreating with the Lord. This episode is unique because it is just Sara! She spends the entire episode opening up about her recent health journey and the way that has impacted her walk with the Lord. We desire to walk through ALL of the faith journey with you which means being transparent throughout times of suffering and not just after we have moved through it. The real, the raw, the hard...that is exactly what this episode is. We want to repeat something Sara says at the end because it is truth. We pray this podcast presses you to fall deeper in love with the Word of God. He is the place of ultimate comfort and even when it feels like he isn’t near, we KNOW His word has ultimate authority and it says He will NEVER forsake us. Thank you, Jesus.

Welcome back Grace Warriors! This January we are talking about the heart, which entails so many different things. New year doesn’t mean old patterns disappear and like we have always said, “New Year, Same Jesus”. We are so grateful for the invitation to cut out the excess and center our hearts anew on Him. It’s so easy to get caught up in the expectations of others but as believers we are called to something so much greater and that is submission to the authority of Jesus which allows us to fully embrace His grace. We invite you to lay down your fear of man and step into your true identity in Jesus today. We love you guys so much and are so excited for a new year with you all.

As you know, last week we had a few complications with the podcast episode so we missed out on hearing Kathy’s perspective for the New Year! This week Kathy goes more in depth about her thoughts on 2022. Kathy is a planner and someone who is always striving to do better, as she has grown in her walk with Christ she has seen all the Lord can do when we intentionally pursue him, but this year both Kathy and Sara are focusing on the surrender. We believe having open hands to the Holy Spirit is a necessary step for growth. Kathy talks about her word or thought for the year being “Immanuel", God with us, and that is exactly what she wants to focus on. Join us on this beautiful journey as we figured it out step by step with Jesus. He’s the true guide and His presence is enough, He doesn’t owe us anything but goodness He loves us so much!

We’re so excited to kick off 2022 with our amazing followers. Come join our journey as we laugh and grow together throughout this next year. Today Sara and Kathy do a small check-in and evaluate where they are currently spiritually. Sara talks through setting aside expectations for herself and explains how her heart desires to stay curious throughout this next year. Kathy talks through change and how it is NOT a bad thing, even though it may feel bad, it’s a part of life and it’s only a season! What are you looking forward to this year? Are you setting goals or going with the flow? Our goal is to remind all of you of the gospel, remind ourselves of the gospel and to rest in the assurance of what Jesus has done on the cross. We can’t wait to see what Jesus does in the next 365 days! NOTE: THE EPISODE WAS CUT OFF DURING RECORDING. WE APOLOGIZE FOR NOT HAVING THE FULL EPISODE FOR YOU BUT WE WANTED TO RELEASE THE PARTIAL EPISODE INSTEAD OF NOT RELEASING ANYTHING AT ALL. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.

This week on the Grace Warriors podcast we are continuing our conversation about the gift of suffering with Kelsie Downs. Seasons of suffering will happen to all of us many times in this life. Remember, Jesus didn’t promise it would be easy but he did say to take heart because he has overcome the world! There will be an end to our suffering here on earth but not until we get Him in eternity. The great news is that there is actually hope here on earth too! Jesus has already come and He brings His presence to our suffering and that truly is ALL we need. He meets us in our pain, he soothes the aches of this hard life and he brings greater hope that rests fully in His finished work on the cross. Be filled with the hope of Jesus as we finish out 2021 with this dive deep into how to handle the gift of suffering and walk with joy because of Jesus!

This week the Grace Warriors are back to talk about the gift of the Holy Spirit. We touched on this a little bit last week with Jenny while she talked on the trinity but this week we are taking a deeper dive into her study on the Holy Ghost! We’re so ex

Hello December! Today the Grace Warriors interview Jenny Zabel again. If you have been listening for awhile, we have another interview with her that we recorded a few months back. We love Jenny so much that we invited her back to talk on something she has recently been studying and even taught on at a recent conference. This week we are talking about the trinity and the power of the Holy Spirit. There is SO much to unpack when it comes to the trinity and we barely scratch the surface in today’s episode. This episode is one that will challenge you, make you think and possibly even initiate you listening a second time. Have questions? We’d love to chat with you! Reach out over social media anytime! We hope you have a great week and remember to slow down as we enter one of the busiest month’s of the year!

Today the Grace Warriors interview Amanda Taylor and goodness it was so refreshing to sit down and talk to this woman! Amanda is a friend of Kathy’s and they actually live on the same street. She is rooted deep in the love of her Father and you can see the fruit in the way she obeys Him. Amanda is family-oriented and is deeply shaped by the Word of God. Listen this week to receive encouragement and give you the extra nudge to lean into the Father this week, He won’t let you down. He promises He is always near. As always, we are praying for all of our listeners and we are so thankful for you guys!

Happy Thanksgiving Grace Warriors! It’s the best time of the year and today we are talking all about the beautiful and hard things we are thankful for in this season. A few times a year we love to take time to sit down and ponder afresh on all that God has done and is doing, and that is what today’s episode is! We hope this 30-minute talk encourages you to fall more in love with Jesus, to run to His word when you don’t feel thankful and to choose gratitude even when you don’t want to. There is always a gift in obedience, there’s always a gift in recognizing His grace in all circumstances. We hope you have a blessed thanksgiving, friends!

Today the Grace Warriors talk about a subject we can ALL relate to, maybe even more than we’d like to admit..Judging Others! This is a HARD one because judging others can go hand-in-hand with gossip and honestly both of these sins are socially acceptable in most friend groups, sadly, even in the church. This is an episode you don’t want to miss. We also would love to hear what the Lord has taught you on this subject. Kathy and Sara spend time exploring what the Word says on this topic and also talk through their experiences with hard conversations they’ve walked through with people they love. If you are in a situation where you are needing to confront someone, spend time in the Lord’s presence, sit with him in His word and wait on Him to fill your heart with tender compassion and love for that person. The only way we can be loving is through spending time with the true definition of love, we conforms us and we don’t even see it! Spending time with Him is the BEST use of your time on this Monday! We love you guys!

Welcome back Grace Warriors! We can’t believe we’re already nearing Thanksgiving. Time has flown! This week we are diving into the beauty and ashes of the parable of the lost son. This parable has so much in it that we can take away to help us grow and mature in Christ. Jesus is for all people and he desires for all to be saved. He pursues and loves deeply but he won’t make anyone love him back. We get to choose, life or death, Jesus or this world. Oh and spoiler alert...we do this our entire lives, choosing the world then run back to Jesus. That’s why Jesus came. We couldn’t choose the right path without his grace. We can all relate so much to this parable. We encourage you to sit with it this week and study it in the Word.

If you haven’t listened to last week’s episode, this week may be a little confusing, so pause this one and go back to episode 72! This week on Grace Warriors, we are finishing off Jennifer’s story about her husband Michael. In the first episode she talks about the tragedy that nearly killed her husband, but God had other plans. Today Jennifer talks about the days leading up to Michael waking up being peaceful and not filled with anxiety or worry. She was clinging to the peace that only Jesus can give! This life-changing story is only a miracle from God and he truly has gotten all of the glory for it. Thank you so much for sharing your story with the Grace Warriors podcast Jennifer!

Happy Monday Grace Warriors! This week we are interviewing an incredible woman, Jennifer Buckingham! Kathy and Sara both have mutual connections with Jennifer so we are excited to have her on the Grace Warriors podcast this week. Jennifer is a Christian woman, mother, wife and doctor of pharmacy but there is so much more to her story. On a day she and her family will never forget, Jennifer takes us through one of the scariest days of her life. God showed up in a miraculous way because He is a God of miracles! We don’t want to spoil the story so tune in and listen. God’s presence can be found in any circumstances.
