Christy & Kristen meet up again, this time to discuss Jesus' resurrection promises, the various promises made to Abraham (and how we receive parallel promises!), the spiritual blessings we're promised in Ephesians, how we know that God can & will fulfill His promises, the beautiful promise of the Holy Spirit as a guarantee, and several "if/then" promises of God.Episode Resources:Promises of God Scripture Writing Plan: https://www.theruffledmango.com/march-scripture-writing-plan-promises-of-god/Promises of God Kids' Scripture Writing Plans: (scroll down to curriculum section for free downloads)https://the-ruffled-mango-school.teachable.com/p/behold-our-god-scripture-writing-extrasPromises of God acapella playlists:Free on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3oXqm83NCE6S2Zl50Dkqmw?si=02ff6f2797e5419b&nd=1&dlsi=c488ed4bfd184d2aApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/promises-of-god/pl.u-8aAVXLjfPXZLXdBehold Our God Scripture Writing Journal (BACK IN STOCK): https://theruffledmango.etsy.com/listing/4383440254Behold Our God Scripture Writing Extras:https://the-ruffled-mango-school.teachable.com/p/behold-our-god-scripture-writing-extrasOur Etsy shop: https://theruffledmango.etsy.comChristy's favorite local chain restaurants: https://www.tazikis.comKristen's favorite lavender creamer: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Starbucks-Oat-Crmr-Lavender-6x28flozUS-nbsp/13696859371?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0(and favorite Vanilla Lavender ground coffee: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Starbucks-Vanilla-Lavender-Flavored-Ground-Coffee-100-Arabica-11-oz/9666971959?adsRedirect=true)

On this episode of Wifey Wednesdays, explore what it means to be wholly pure in a world overflowing with impurity. Purity isn’t partial—it’s a heart fully cleansed, fully devoted, and continually refined by God. While sin subtly seeps in and desensitizes us over time, God calls us to something higher: a life set apart, washed, and sustained by the cleansing power of Jesus.

In this episode of Today With Jesus, we continue our study of Jesus’ words from the cross: “Woman, behold your son… Behold your mother” (John 19:26–27).In Part 1, we explored the moment itself—the raw emotion, the setting at the cross, and the relationship between Jesus, Mary, and John. In Part 2, we turn our attention to what this statement reveals about Jesus’ heart and how it reshapes our understanding of family, care, and discipleship today.

Christy & Kristen talk about how God always keeps His promises, starting from the first prophecy in Genesis 3 and continuing to God's covenantal promise signaled by the rainbow that we see even today. They discuss the conditional nature of many of God's promises, how we can experience promised rest & peace even during trials in this life, and the promises that were made to Mary before she became the mother of Jesus.Episode Resources:Promises of God Scripture Writing Plan: https://www.theruffledmango.com/march-scripture-writing-plan-promises-of-god/Promises of God Kids' Scripture Writing Plans: (scroll down to curriculum section for free downloads)https://the-ruffled-mango-school.teachable.com/p/behold-our-god-scripture-writing-extrasPromises of God acapella playlists:Free on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3oXqm83NCE6S2Zl50Dkqmw?si=02ff6f2797e5419b&nd=1&dlsi=c488ed4bfd184d2aApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/promises-of-god/pl.u-8aAVXLjfPXZLXdBehold Our God Scripture Writing Journal (BACK IN STOCK): https://theruffledmango.etsy.com/listing/4383440254Behold Our God Scripture Writing Extras:https://the-ruffled-mango-school.teachable.com/p/behold-our-god-scripture-writing-extrasOur Etsy shop: https://theruffledmango.etsy.comChristy's favorite way to read: Libby - https://libbyapp.com/interview/welcome#doYouHaveACard & Hoopla - https://www.hoopladigital.com

In this episode, Wayne challenges men to embrace one of the most powerful and formative disciplines in the Christian life: prayer. More than a private spiritual habit, prayer is something our families—especially our children—need to see and hear from us regularly. When fathers pray, they model dependence on God, humility before Him, and confidence in His care.Wayne acknowledges that prayer does not always come easily. At times, believers struggle with uncertainty, distraction, or even spiritual apathy. Yet those moments are often when prayer is needed most. Rather than allowing discomfort or hesitation to silence us, we must push through those feelings and intentionally speak to God, trusting that He hears and cares.The episode also explores several key dispositions of prayer found in Jesus’ model prayer in Matthew 6:9–13. In this well-known passage, Jesus teaches that prayer should reflect reverence for God’s holiness, submission to His will, trust in His daily provision, humility in seeking forgiveness, and a desire for spiritual protection.Through this discussion, Wayne reminds listeners that prayer shapes both the one who prays and those who are watching. When children grow up seeing their fathers regularly turn to God, they learn that faith is not merely something we talk about—it is something we live.This episode serves as both an encouragement and a challenge for men to lead their families by cultivating a life of sincere, consistent prayer.
