Woman Evolve with Sarah Jakes Roberts

Bringing our devotional series to a close, SJR grounds us in what it really takes to go rogue in an unfree world. This episode challenges listeners to stop taking messages at face value and start interrogating them with the Truth. You'll be invited to ask better questions, spot when the truth is being distorted, and see why resistance is part of the process, sis. SJR also drops her go-to scriptures that keep her anchored, proving why presence with God and in your body matters. But chile, John 17 sent us!

In the second installment of our devotional series, SJR continues the conversation on what it means to go rogue. And at the end of the day, it's conviction over consensus, sis. Romans 12 sets the tone, reminding us that real change doesn't happen overnight. So if evolving feels like a lot, remember that Jesus clocked every flaw and still chose you. Matthew 5 is assigned as homework because living set apart is not for the faint of heart, especially when them old ways try to spin the block. Don't try to dip out early now! The journaling prompts at the end of this episode will help you name what obedience really costs, where resistance shows up, and what you need to break away from.

Listennnn… welcome to 2026, sis. We are starting this year a little different, on purpose. No performing, no pretending, no "I'm fine" faith. Just real. In this episode, Sarah opens up about what it actually means to go rogue. Not rebellion for attention, but breaking up with the patterns, the fears, and the "truths" you picked up in the air that are keeping you stuck.
We're talking identity, confidence, and the sneaky way old labels try to follow you into a new season. If you've ever been quicker to believe the negative than receive the good, if one comment can disconnect you from feeling loved by God, or if you can tell your heart has gotten a little guarded… pull up. We're getting in Ezekiel 36:26 and asking God for the kind of renewal that doesn't just sound good, but changes you from the inside out.
By the end, you'll be ready to write your own Go Rogue statement, challenge what fear has been "authorized" to say over you, and start breathing fresh again.

Sis, this one goes straight to the heart. A Mind Your Business question about career rejection sends Sarah into a real talk moment about how we handle the "no" we didn't see coming. Because yes, rejection can be redirection… but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. SJR gets honest about waiting on God when He feels quiet, the pressure to have it all figured out, and how easily we turn our relationship with God into a performance review instead of a place of refuge.
In true Woman Evolve fashion, Sarah brings scripture, life, laughter, and love into a reminder we all need: before you get the next command, God wants you in His presence. Not rushed. Not perfect. Not pretending. Just present. This episode is for every woman navigating transition, healing from disappointment, or learning to trust God in the in-between. Tap in and let your heart catch the breath your mind has been begging for.

Sis, what happens when God calls you to do the very thing you said you'd never do? In this heartfelt conversation, Sarah Jakes Roberts and Dr. Anita Phillips get transparent about friendship, obedience, and the cost of saying yes when it changes everything. From unexpected callings to public pressure, they unpack what it means to follow God into unfamiliar territory, redefine identity after loss, and keep showing up when you feel fragile.
It's funny, honest, and deeply spiritual—the kind of conversation that reminds you that obedience isn't about being perfect; it's about being dependent. So if you've been wrestling with God's instructions or trying to rebuild after a "yes" that shook your whole world, this one's for you.
