Recorded live from the 10th annual Young Women’s Leadership Summit, this episode is a message straight from my heart to yours. I was deeply honored to speak at YWLS — and even more proud of my husband and the incredible team who have poured a decade into building this powerful movement of truth and leadership. In this special episode, I share a bold reminder: we are not just living in cultural chaos — we are standing in a spiritual war zone. And now more than ever, we need women who are not swep...

There are moments in our walk with God when the light seems to fade. We stumble, not because the presence of God has left us, but because something has come between us and the Light. In this week’s Monday Meditations , we explore the quiet eclipse — the subtle ways fear, shame, and failure drift between our hearts and the face of Christ. Like Peter in the courtyard or David on the rooftop, we sometimes forget the light we’ve seen in times when shadows fall. But the light has not gone out. It is ...

Waiting can feel like silence. Like stagnation. Like abandonment. But what if the delay isn't a detour — what if it's divine preparation? In today’s episode of Monday Meditations , we explore what it means to wait with purpose and walk with willingness even when the answers haven’t come. Drawing from the story of Ruth, the groaning of Romans 8, and the promises of God's Word, we uncover the truth that God is never inactive — even when we can’t see His hand. This is for the one in the hallway bet...

This week on Monday Meditations , we walk through the holy fire of suffering and come face-to-face with the unshakable truth: our Redeemer lives. When life feels like a furnace, God's refining hand is at work—not to destroy you, but to purify, strengthen, and reveal His glory through you. In this bold, pastoral reflection, we explore what it means to trust God when the ground shakes and the sky falls. This episode is for the broken, the weary, and the warriors—those who refuse to give up because...

There comes a moment — quiet, piercing, undeniable — when your soul whispers: “This isn’t working.” In this powerful episode, we confront the ache of misaligned ambition, the burnout of chasing what was never meant to fulfill you, and the holy invitation to stop, turn around, and walk with God in a new direction. This isn’t a message about quitting. It’s a call to repentance and revival. To courage. To freedom. To finally stop running East when the sunset has always been in the West. If you’re t...

In this episode we step into the heart of who Jesus truly is—not only our Savior, but our Healer. Through tender reflection, biblical insight, and Spirit-led encouragement, we explore how the Jesus who healed in the Gospels is still healing today. Why do so many believers embrace Jesus’ saving grace but quietly dismiss His miraculous power? What might happen if we began to pray bold, believing prayers again? Through gentle spiritual challenge, you’ll be invited to look at Jesus through fresh eye...

We follow headlines, influencers, and trends — but are we still following Jesus? In a world obsessed with the next big thing, this episode calls us back to the quiet, dusty road behind the Savior. Walk slower. Look closer. Follow deeper. Let’s rediscover what it really means to so closely pursue our Savior that we are covered in the dust of His feet. Questions to ask yourself this week: - Whose dust are you wearing? - Are you covered in the noise of the world, or the presence of the Savior? - Do...

Whenever Charlie and I have a chance to collaborate on a podcast episode together, they quickly become my favorite. Today we're answering real, unscripted questions exclusively from his members.charliekirk.com audience. We touch on everything from faith and calling, to marriage, to navigating the hard places in life with grace and truth. If you hear something today that feels hard—especially if it's rooted in Scripture—I encourage you to bring it before the Lord. Ask Him to reveal what He wants ...

Revival was never meant to live on a stage or wait for a spotlight. It was always meant to start quietly—in the surrendered corners of a life fully yielded. In your kitchen. In your commute. In the stillness before the noise. It’s not hype. It’s holiness. Not a moment. A rhythm. A daily choosing to breathe deeply of His Spirit and burn steadily with His presence. Because when we live in revival, joy returns. Hearts soften. Love ignites—and it spreads. But how do we stay lit in a world constantly...

Comparison isn’t just a distraction—it’s a sin. It’s a silent thief that creeps in unnoticed and leaves devastation in its wake—robbing you of joy, distorting your view of God, and chaining your purpose in insecurity. In this episode, we confront the lie that you need to measure up, catch up, or keep up. We’ll walk through Jeremiah 17:5–8 and Psalm 1:1–3 to reveal the beauty and strength of a woman who is planted, rooted, and fruitful —not because she hustles harder, but because she trusts deepe...

Today, we’re focusing on something small—but deeply sacred. It weighs just a few ounces and lives behind your teeth, yet it can split friendships, sow discord, or breathe life into dry bones. We’re talking about the tongue. Not just what it says—but what it reveals . Jesus said, “Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” That means your words are not random—they’re reflections. Of your thoughts. Of your beliefs. Of your heart. In this episode, we unpack the spiritual weight of our sp...

Let’s catch up — straight from the heart. In this special episode, I’m sharing a recent Live Q&A from Calvary OC where discuss all the things — from how Charlie and I first met, to stories about our babies, to navigating life after the election. We also dig into the real stuff like comparison, faith, and what God’s been showing us in this season. Plus, I took some powerful questions from the crowd. It was such a sweet and honest time — I hope it blesses you as much as it blessed me. Thanks f...

This week, we’re reflecting on unlocking gratitude —not from getting more, but from recognizing what God has already given us: His love, forgiveness, new life, purpose in suffering, and the promise of eternity. Join us as we meditate on five truths that shift our focus from what’s missing to all we already have in Christ. 📖 Scripture highlights: Romans 12:12, 1 John 3:1, Galatians 2:20, Revelation 21:4, John 8:32 🙌 Challenge: Meditate on these truths for 30 days. Let them change you. 💬 Leave ...

In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the choices that define our lives: Will we trust in man and live a cursed life, or place our trust in the Lord and flourish like a tree planted by the water? Rooted in Jeremiah 17:5-8 , we unpack the stark contrast between relying on human strength and surrendering fully to God’s will. Through personal reflections, biblical examples, and real-life analogies (yes, even house-hunting nightmares!), we explore what it means to truly trust in God—not just o...

In this episode I just want to encourage you as you go through the "unseen" season of life. Where you feel invisible to God. Don’t despise the waiting. Don’t mistake silence for absence. God is near, even now. He is working in ways you cannot yet comprehend. Every moment of faithfulness, every unseen act of obedience, is being woven into something far greater than you could ever imagine. You are not on pause. You are being positioned. You are not forgotten. You are fortified. And when the time c...

Loving God with all our heart, soul, and strength is a beautiful command, one designed to deepen our relationship with Him. Yet, when we truly consider what it means, it can feel overwhelming. When we experience a true relationship with Him, nothing else will satisfy our soul. While we will always be growing in our love for God, we do so with the assurance that He strengthens us, renews our minds, and transforms our hearts. And even as we strive to love Him more, we rest in the truth that “we lo...

“Who designed your outfit?” or “What brand are you wearing?” The world chases after couture, but as Christians, we are called to be clothed in something far greater—a garment of praise. When we choose to wear praise, we shift our focus from the temporary to the eternal. Praise is not just a song or a moment in church; it is a lifestyle, a spiritual covering that reminds us of God’s goodness in every season. The world may define status by outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. Instead of...

There is a dangerous message in today’s culture that equates love with silent approval. But love without truth is not love at all—it is deception. True Christian love is courageous. It requires discernment. It extends grace while standing firm in righteousness. But what does this actually look like in practice, especially in today’s world? How do we love our neighbors when they don’t think like us, when they don’t vote like us, or when they mock what we believe? We hope that you enjoy this episo...

Maybe you scroll through social media and see other moms who seem to have it all together—perfect homes, thriving kids, effortless balance—and suddenly, guilt creeps in. In this episode, we’re having an honest heart-to-heart about mom guilt, comparison, and the impossible standards we place on ourselves. Whether you’re a stay-at-home mom juggling little ones or a working mom trying to balance it all, we’ll dive into biblical encouragement a...

The key is to choose God’s way and hold possessions loosely. Jesus warned that “a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions” (Luke 12:15). Money can be a useful servant but a dangerous master. Property is to be used, enjoyed, shared, and given—but never hoarded. Paul reminds us that “the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil” (1 Timothy 6:10). When wealth becomes our focus, it shackles our hearts, hardens our spirits, and blinds us to what truly matters. We hope th...

Welcome to Season 4 of Midweek Rise Up! We're starting off this new season with an awesome episode featuring my husband, the incredible, Charlie Kirk. We sit down together at AmericaFest 2024 discussing a multitude of topics, but mostly explaining what this past year has been like for us, as a family, individually, and also the power of literally surrounding everything to the Lord and saying, "Here I am, Lord. Use me." But, be prepared, because God will do just that, use you, in the most POWERFU...

God loves you—personally, powerfully, and passionately. His love is not distant or indifferent; it is intentional and ever-present. Would He save you only to leave you in fear? Would He teach you to walk, only to watch you stumble? Would He endure the agony of the cross for your sins, only to ignore your prayers? Of course not.Look to Jesus, and you will see the heart of God. Watch as He reveals the Kingdom—His power over disease and death, His ability to restore what was lost, His tears for a b...

Comparison is a thief. It can steal joy, it can steal self-worth, it can steal purpose. It robs people of peace and contentment. God specifically and sovereignly designed you with unique gifts and specific purpose. No matter what season you’re in, be humble and present and find ways to grow. Remember that you’re constantly evolving–for better or for worse. Don’t let comparison put out the Spirit’s fire that is within you. Astonish a mean world with your acts of selflessness and kindness and proc...

We are more than flesh and bone. We are spiritual beings made in the image of God. Jesus is the Son of God and the one and only Way. If you believe this and accept Christ as your Savior, and ask for forgiveness for your sins, then you are a new creation. When Jesus hung on the cross, God didn’t just see Jesus–He saw you, He saw me. God wiped our slate clean. He removed our old life and put new life in us. That new life is Christ who lives in us. We are bought by the blood of the Lamb, Christ Jes...

Hardships do not discriminate and trials come in many different shapes and sizes. When they do hit, remember that you possess the fruits of the Spirit. You have the gift of joy, which is essentially a superpower. You are equipped for the battle. God is for you. He goes before you. He will never forsake you. He will never leave you. His love is unrelenting and immovable. When your joy is challenged, draw near to God. He is the only one who holds all things together. Don’t focus on the storm. Don’...

Growing up I was consistently told that “hope is not a strategy.” This made no sense to me. I thought it was silly to say that it wasn’t because we’re told in 1 Corinthians 13:13 that the three things that will last forever are faith, hope and love. I kept my own “hope strategy” to myself and fought back on the premise I was repeatedly told. Choosing hope will be more difficult at certain times than others. Sometimes the unexpected hits and it throws us off course and challenges our hope. In the...

Repentance is more than just sincere regret or remorse. It’s more than just discontinuing a sin. Though we are extended grace continuously, it’s essential that we check our hearts and make sure that we don’t use it as an opportunity to abuse God’s free and merciful gift. Just because you have the Holy Spirit inside you doesn’t give you permission to sin, ask for forgiveness and then keep committing the same sin over and over again. Stay close to God. Keep that path clear. Stay within the jet str...

In case you haven’t realized, we do not live in a world where everyone is wearing rose-colored glasses and basking in pure utopia. We live on a sinful, fallen earth and we know that the devil is the prince of this world. What God created for good, Satan wants to counterfeit and manipulate and use for evil. Don’t blame God for your “Why me?” moments. God may allow a storm to hit your life, just like Job, but He didn’t create it. None of us wants to endure pain and suffering but we are equipped to...

So many of us are afraid to be alone. We equate it with loneliness. We avoid it because silence is where our thoughts can sometimes be the loudest and our minds are where the enemy often tries to battle the hardest. Throughout scripture, we read of God appearing to people in quiet places of solitude, giving leaders visions, or even speaking audibly. If you find yourself alone in the quiet, it’s great to shift your mindset from selfish pursuits and to instead see it as a wonderful opportunity to ...
