🎙️ Episode 37: Did the Church Block You???👀

When the People Who Represented Jesus Wounded You

Have you ever been hurt by someone who claimed to follow Jesus?

Maybe it was a pastor. A church leader. A close friend. Or someone you trusted who made you question whether you even wanted to go back to church.

If you've ever found yourself wondering, "How do I keep following Jesus when His people have hurt me?"—this conversation is for you.

In this honest and hope-filled episode, Kara and Misty tackle one of the deepest wounds many believers carry: church hurt. Together, they explore what God's Word says about betrayal, forgiveness, healing, and why the failures of people should never become the reason we walk away from the Savior who never fails.

In this episode, you'll discover:

✨ Why church hurt cuts so deeply. ✨ How Jesus understands betrayal firsthand. ✨ The difference between trusting Jesus and trusting imperfect people. ✨ How forgiveness and healthy boundaries can coexist. ✨ Why your calling is still alive, even after disappointment. ✨ How God can heal wounds you thought would never heal.

If you've been carrying pain caused by the church, we pray this conversation reminds you that your story isn't over. Jesus still sees you, still loves you, and still has a purpose for your life.

People may have wounded your heart, but they don't get to write your future—Jesus does.

Because faith meets real life... and no conversation is off limits. 💜

Have you ever prayed with all your heart... and still felt like heaven was silent?

Maybe you've prayed for healing that never came. A marriage that still fell apart. A child who walked away from God. Or a breakthrough you've been waiting on for years.

If you've ever wondered, "God... did You even hear me?"—this conversation is for you.

In this heartfelt episode, Kara and Misty explore one of the hardest questions every believer faces: What do we do when God doesn't answer our prayers the way we hoped?

Together, we'll discover: ✨ Why God's silence doesn't mean He's absent. ✨ What Jesus, Paul, Habakkuk, and Lazarus teach us about trusting God through seasons of waiting. ✨ How to keep praying when you're discouraged. ✨ Why God's delays are not always His denials. ✨ How to find peace even when you don't understand God's plan.

If you're carrying an unanswered prayer, we pray this conversation reminds you that God hears every tear, every whispered prayer, and every cry of your heart.

Because sometimes the greatest miracle isn't the answer we wanted... it's discovering that God never left us while we waited.

💕 Episode Quote: "God's silence is not proof that He isn't listening. Sometimes it's proof that He's still writing a better ending than we can see."

Your Children Are Watching

When Public Faith Doesn't Match Private Life

Who are you when the church service is over?

Our greatest testimony may not be what we say on Sunday—it may be how we love, lead, and show up for the people waiting for us at home.

In this heartfelt conversation, Kara and Misty explore the difference between public faith and private faith, why our first ministry begins at home, and how to navigate the challenges of co-parenting with grace when another parent continually lets your children down.

If you've ever struggled with broken promises, family disappointment, or wondered how to point your children to Jesus in the middle of difficult circumstances, this episode is for you.

Together, we'll discuss: ✨ Why your children are watching more than they're listening ✨ What the Bible says about authentic faith at home ✨ How to respond to disappointment without becoming bitter ✨ Encouragement for parents, grandparents, and caregivers carrying the weight alone ✨ Why showing up consistently may be one of the greatest acts of love you'll ever give

Your children don't need a perfect parent.

They need a parent who keeps pointing them to a perfect Savior.

Join us as we discover how living an authentic faith at home can leave a legacy that lasts for generations.

💜 Because children may not remember every sermon... but they'll always remember who showed up.

Have you ever wondered...

"Is God trying to tell me something?"

Maybe you've prayed for direction, searched the Scriptures, or waited in silence, hoping God would make His will clear. If you've ever questioned whether God still speaks today, this episode is for you.

In this encouraging conversation, Kara and Misty explore the many ways God speaks to His people through His Word, the Holy Spirit, prayer, wise counsel, and the quiet promptings that draw us closer to Him.

You'll also hear personal testimonies of how God has faithfully led, opened unexpected doors, and used ordinary moments to reveal His extraordinary plans.

Together, we'll discuss: ✨ How to recognize God's voice ✨ How to distinguish His leading from our own thoughts ✨ Why God's Word is the foundation for every message He gives ✨ Common obstacles that keep us from hearing Him ✨ How obedience often begins with listening

God has never stopped speaking. The question isn't whether He's speaking—it's whether we're listening.

If you're longing for wisdom, direction, or reassurance, this episode will encourage you to quiet the noise, lean into His presence, and trust that the Good Shepherd still calls His sheep by name.

Because God still speaks... and He wants you to know His voice. ❤️

patterns of addiction, anger, fear, broken relationships, or spiritual bondage run through your family? Have you ever wondered if you're destined to repeat what came before you?

In this powerful episode of Girls Can Pray Too, Misty and Kara explore what the Bible really says about generational patterns, inherited struggles, personal responsibility, and the transforming power of Jesus Christ. Together, they separate biblical truth from common misconceptions, showing that while family patterns can influence us, they do not have to define us.

Through the stories of Rahab, David, Solomon, and other biblical examples, you'll discover how God redeems family legacies, breaks cycles of sin, and creates a new inheritance for those who belong to Him.

If you've ever felt trapped by your past or burdened by your family's history, this episode is a reminder that your story doesn't have to end where theirs began. Freedom is possible, healing is available, and in Christ, every generation has the opportunity to start a new legacy.

In this episode, you'll learn:

What the Bible teaches about generational sin and generational consequences.

The difference between inherited tendencies and personal choices.

How faith can change the course of a family legacy.

Practical steps to break unhealthy spiritual and emotional patterns.

Girls Can Pray Too is hosted by Misty and Kara, where real women have honest conversations about faith, healing, and walking boldly with Jesus—even when life is hard.

Have you ever felt like everyone else's prayers were being answered except yours?

You've prayed.

You've cried.

You've waited.

And heaven feels silent.

Whether you're waiting for healing, restoration, direction, breakthrough, or a prodigal to come home, waiting seasons can test our faith like nothing else. It's easy to wonder if God sees us—or if He's forgotten us altogether.

But what if God's delay isn't His denial?

In this hope-filled episode of Girls Can Pray Too, Kara and Misty explore what Scripture teaches about waiting on God's timing and trusting Him even when the answer doesn't come as quickly as we hoped.

Through the stories of Abraham and Sarah, Hannah, and Lazarus, we discover that God's delays often have divine purposes we cannot yet see.

In this episode, we discuss:

✨ Why waiting is one of the hardest acts of faith

✨ The difference between delay and denial

✨ What God may be doing while we wait

✨ How to remain faithful in difficult seasons

✨ Why God's timing is always perfect

✨ Finding hope when heaven feels quiet

Friend, if you're in a waiting season today, don't give up.

The same God who was faithful to Abraham, Hannah, and Lazarus is faithful to you.

Because sometimes God does His greatest work in the waiting.

📖 "But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength..." — Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)

If you've been weary, discouraged, or wondering if God still hears your prayers, this episode is for you.

Have you ever felt like God was calling you to something that nobody else seemed to understand?

Maybe you've been overlooked. Maybe you've been underestimated. Maybe people have questioned your calling, your gifts, or your purpose.

If so, you're not alone.

Throughout Scripture, God repeatedly called ordinary people into extraordinary assignments long before anyone else recognized what He was doing. David was left in the field. Jeremiah felt too young. Deborah led with courage in uncertain times. Even Jesus Himself was misunderstood.

In this powerful and encouraging episode, Kara and Misty explore what it means to follow God's call when others don't see what He sees. Through honest conversation, biblical examples, and personal reflection, they remind listeners that obedience to God often requires walking by faith—not by the approval of people.

In this episode, we discuss:

✨ Why God often chooses the unlikely

✨ What to do when others doubt your calling

✨ The danger of seeking man's approval over God's

✨ Staying humble and teachable in ministry

✨ Trusting God's timing and purpose

✨ Remaining faithful when obedience feels lonely

Friend, if God called you, He will equip you.

Don't let criticism stop your calling. Don't let praise become your motivation. Keep your eyes on Jesus and trust the One who sees what others cannot.

📖 "For the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart." — 1 Samuel 16:7 (KJV)

If you've ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or questioned while trying to follow God, this episode is for you.

Who is the Holy Spirit—and why is there so much confusion surrounding Him?

In this powerful and grace-filled conversation, Kara and Misty explore one of the most discussed and often misunderstood topics in the Church today: the person and work of the Holy Spirit.

Is the Holy Spirit still active today? What are the gifts of the Spirit? Does God still speak? And how do we test spiritual experiences according to Scripture?

Through honest conversation, personal testimony, and the unchanging truth of God's Word, this episode seeks to build understanding—not division. Whether you come from a Baptist, Pentecostal, or non-denominational background, our prayer is that this discussion points you back to Jesus.

In this episode, we discuss:

✨ Who the Holy Spirit is

✨ The purpose of spiritual gifts

✨ Speaking in tongues and differing Christian views

✨ Dreams, burdens, and discernment

✨ Testing every experience by Scripture

✨ Why fruit matters more than gifts

✨ How the Holy Spirit always points us to Christ

As believers, we may not agree on every secondary issue, but we stand united in the truth that Jesus Christ is Lord.

📖 "Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." — 1 Thessalonians 5:19–21 (KJV)

Join us as we seek truth with humility, pursue discernment through the Holy Spirit, and keep our eyes fixed on Jesus.
