The Praying Wife

In this episode of The Praying Wife Podcast, we’re diving into the Weapons of Warfare and what it truly means to fight spiritual battles as believers. Using 2 Corinthians 10:3–5 as our foundation, we unpack what Scripture means when it talks about “demolishing strongholds,” and how many of the battles we face begin in the mind through fear, lies, temptation, shame, pride, discouragement, and deception.
We also address the reality of spiritual warfare and demonic influence from a balanced biblical perspective, not from fear or obsession, but through the lens of Christ’s victory and the authority believers have in Him.
Together, we explore the spiritual weapons God has given us:
Prayer, ⁠The Word of God, Worship, ⁠Fasting, ⁠Faith & ⁠Obedience.
This episode is a reminder that we are not powerless in the battle. Through the blood of Jesus, the truth of God’s Word, and faithful endurance, we can stand firm, resist the enemy, and walk in victory. You are not fighting alone ! God has equipped you for the battle!

In today’s world, believers are constantly surrounded by opinions, cultural pressure, distorted truth, and teachings that may sound good but don’t always align with God’s Word. So how do we stand firm in our faith without becoming fearful, harsh, or argumentative?
In this episode, we’re talking about what it truly means to defend the faith as Christian women, responding with grace and truth, testing teachings against Scripture, recognizing deception, and remaining firmly rooted in God’s Word.
We’ll discuss how discernment is developed through intimacy with God, why Scripture must remain our foundation, and how the Holy Spirit helps guide us when we face opposition or confusion. This conversation is not about “winning debates,” but about becoming women who know God’s voice, walk in wisdom, and stand confidently in truth with love, humility, and boldness.
Rooted in Truth. Guided by Wisdom. Standing Firm in Faith.

What does it really look like to stand on the Word of God in your everyday life,  especially as a wife and mother?

In this powerful and honest conversation, I’m joined by best-selling author and speaker Rhonda Stoppe as we talk about what it means to build your home on biblical truth instead of emotion, pressure, or culture.

Together, we dive into how Scripture shapes a woman’s identity, influences her decisions, and helps her lead her home with clarity and confidence, even in a world full of comparison and noise.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, unsure, or pulled in different directions as a woman, wife, or mother — this episode will ground you, encourage you, and remind you where your foundation truly belongs.
