Praying Christian Women

And we believe that our prayers change the fabric of reality. But we also acknowledge that there are times when prayer can be an excuse not to take action. So how do we know if we're making prayer a priority in a healthy way, or at the expense of taking the actions God is calling us to? Join us for a really interesting discussion!

Grab your free scripture journal at www.prayingchristianwomen.com/journal today! This week's guest on the Praying Christian Women podcast is author, speaker and mentor Karen Ehman. Karen brings us an incredibly timely message straight from her new book "Reach Out, Gather In: 40 Days to Opening Your Heart and Home." Hospitality is something we might find more difficult in a post-COVID world, but Karen brings us some much-needed encouragement about how hospitality is a state of heart you can take with you anywhere. She offers advice, personal stories and helpful tips for how we can overcome obstacles to making hospitality a regular part of our lives, and in doing so how we can open doors to minister to others through prayer in ways we never could have otherwise.

Grab your free scripture journal at www.prayingchristianwomen.com/journal today! Do you pray before going on a big trip, or even each time you walk out the door? Praying for "travel mercies" or a "hedge of protection" is something that has become commonplace in many Christian homes. Is this kind of prayer biblical? Can it become superstitious? Is God interested in our physical protection, or is it missing a bigger picture to focus only on remaining safe? You might be surprised at some of the conclusions we come to in this really interesting discussion about prayers for protection!

In episode 116 we talked about "spiritual housekeeping," looking at different aspects of our spiritual lives using the analogy of rooms in a house (if you missed it, you might want to listen to that one first!). But after getting your spiritual house in order, what are the next steps involved to get your physical house in order: taking a home and making it into a sanctuary for you, your family members, and even any visitors who might come through the door?
