What do you do when justice feels hopelessly out of reach — when hidden evil goes unpunished and the truth seems buried?
Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 64 — Prayer for Deliverance from Secret Enemies — a psalm that speaks directly to the frustration, anger, and dread we feel when injustice seems to be winning, and enemies are laying secret snares with bitter words.
Jaime unpacks the heavy emotional toll of watching people get away with evil, and the lie that we must simply wait for eternity to see things made right. Instead, she explores a powerful cosmic reality: God doesn't exist on our finite earthly timeline. He is the great “I AM,” not “I will be.” Even when hidden traps aren't exposed in our space-time continuum, God is already at work in the spiritual realm. When the enemy aims bitter speech like a weapon, God is ready to shoot His own arrow, turning secret plots upside down and bringing the darkness into the light.
Come ready to lay down your honest complaints and confront the anxiety that comes from picturing a dreaded future without God in it. Let this psalm remind you of the profound power of two simple words: “But God.” Because He is a God of justice here and now, you don't have to wait to experience His goodness, and you can confidently take refuge in Him while declaring His mighty works.

What happens when the spiritual disciplines that once came naturally suddenly feel completely out of reach?
In Part 2 of their conversation on Scripture Memorization, Jaime and Alana tackle the mental blocks, perfectionism, and daily distractions that often keep us from hiding God's Word in our hearts.

They discuss why getting an "80%" on a memory verse is infinitely better than never opening your Bible, and why the simple act of slowing down to absorb Scripture is a valuable spiritual practice in itself—even if you forget the exact words a few weeks later.
Alana opens up with a deeply personal testimony about a grueling season in college when the stress of her studies caused her to lose her ability to recall Scripture completely, and how God graciously restored that gift during a profound moment on a mission trip to Russia. Jaime shares a beautiful story about how a specific passage in Matthew ministered to her teenage son's doubts, proving that the Holy Spirit can bring the Word to mind exactly when it is needed.
Along the way, they swap practical, everyday tools for getting verses to stick when your adult brain feels a little too full. From using dry-erase boards and acronyms to incorporating sign language and leaning into the undeniable staying power of catchy children's Sunday school songs, they offer realistic ways to make memorization work for you.
Whether you are battling the friction of an overwhelmed mind, wondering which passage to pick first, or simply need a gentle reminder that your spiritual gifts are a daily grace to be stewarded, we hope this episode encourages you to embrace the beautiful, imperfect process of knowing God through His Word.

What do you do when God says “Leave” — calling you out of your safe stronghold into the open wilderness?
Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a devotional on Psalm 63 — The Thirsting Soul Satisfied in God — a psalm born out of raw obedience in the wilderness of Judah, where David dares to leave the secure cave of Adullam and his band of four hundred loyal men at the prophet Gad’s command — and still sings for joy in the shadow of God’s wings.
Jaime unpacks the historical backdrop from 1 Samuel 22–23, when David was fleeing Saul, had tucked his parents safely away, and had built a strategic military stronghold… only to hear God say, “Leave.” In that dry and weary land with no water, David’s soul thirsts for God more than his body thirsts for drink. He speaks truth before his emotions catch up, declaring that God’s covenant lovingkindness is better than life itself, lifting his hands in praise, clinging to the Lord, and choosing to meditate on Him through the fearful night watches.
Come ready to look at your own strongholds — the places that feel secure, logical, and safe — and the moments when God calls you out into uncertainty. Let this psalm remind you that there is no truly secure place apart from Him. Because His lovingkindness is better than life, His wings are the only shelter you need, and in the wilderness, when your soul clings to the One whose right hand upholds you, you can still sing for joy.

How do you anchor your soul and stand firm when the world around you feels completely unstable?
This week, Mariel Davenport, a Bible study teacher and creator of the TEND method, joins Jaime for an uplifting and encouraging conversation on reorienting your heart based on her newest Bible study, 1 Peter: Sustained by a Living Hope.
In this episode, Mariel shares the beautiful picture of community through the lens of her salsa garden—explaining how the "companion planting" of tomatoes and jalapeños perfectly mirrors how the body of Christ is designed to mutually benefit and grow together.
Mariel also tackles the misconception that reading the Bible is just an academic exercise, and offers practical advice on how slowing down to handwrite Scripture can cultivate a vibrant, intimate relationship with God rather than just gathering a collection of facts.
Mariel also opens up about the reality of spiritual warfare, sharing how deeply knowing who God says you are is your greatest defense against the enemy's lies. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on what it means to truly tend to your soul, and how remembering your identity as chosen and holy can transform your daily walk with Jesus.
Visit marieldavenport.com to connect with Mariel and pick up a copy of 1 Peter: Sustained by a Living Hope, which provides a timely, step-by-step guide to standing firm and finding eternal hope in our shifting culture.
While there, you can also learn about her weekly podcast and her Tending Together online community, and connect with her on instagram at @marieldavenport.

Where do you turn when the noise of the world is deafening, the demands on your time are endless, and you desperately need a quiet place to anchor your soul?
Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a deeply personal devotional on Psalm 62 — a profound invitation to step away from the chaos of living and make God alone your refuge from busyness and betrayal.
Jaime unpacks David's experience with treachery and the exhaustion of dealing with people who bless with their mouths but inwardly curse. Rather than simply looking outward at the offenses of others, she turns the mirror inward. With gentle vulnerability, she leads a time of confession, challenging us to examine our own integrity, hidden judgments, and the ways we might be double-minded in our own thoughts and words.
We also dig into the striking, subtle shift between verse 1 ("My soul waits in silence") and verse 5 ("My soul, wait in silence"). Jaime explores how waiting on God is not a passive resignation, but an active, intentional quieting of the endless media and mental inputs we consume every day. She shares how we can practically coach our restless, weary souls back to stillness when the turmoil of life makes us want to run.
Come ready to unplug from the striving and step into intentional white space. Let this psalm remind you that while the world spins in a blur of endless activity and shifting truths, you have an unshakable stronghold. Because He is the rock. He is the anchor. And He is the quiet refuge where our souls can finally be still.
