What if the "ransom" for your soul is a price so high that no amount of wealth could ever cover it? What if the security you crave can't be found in your bank account, but in a transaction only God could make?

In this devotional on Psalm 49, we explore a biblical "riddle" that perfectly foreshadows the redeeming work of Christ. We move beyond the text to discuss the "legal" nature of the spiritual realm and the folly of trusting in riches. Jaime also shares a candid personal reflection on the hidden defenses we often use to avoid facing our true selves.

Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of deep encouragement and honest confession. If you’ve felt stuck in patterns of avoidance or envious of worldly success, this episode offers a fresh perspective on where your true worth lies. Come ready to drop your defenses and accept the freedom of a redeemed life.
