  • Ep. 409 - How Your Family can Lead a Girl Out of Bullying Patterns
    2026/08/13
    What should you do when you discover your own daughter is the one hurting someone else? No parent wants to receive the phone call, text message, or conversation revealing that their child has been unkind—or worse, has developed a pattern of bullying another girl. While those moments can stir embarrassment, defensiveness, or even shame, they also present a powerful opportunity for discipleship. In this episode, Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose encourage Christian parents to respond with courage, humility, and a heart committed to both truth and restoration. Continuing the Raising Godly Girls back-to-school series on bullying, Rachael and Natalie discuss the important distinction between isolated unkindness and repeated bullying behavior, why secrecy allows harmful patterns to grow, and how parents can lovingly guide a daughter toward confession, repentance, and reconciliation. Through a thoughtful Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay, listeners are reminded that telling the truth isn't an act of betrayal—it's often the very first step toward healing for everyone involved. The conversation also offers practical, Gospel-centered guidance for parents navigating these difficult situations, including acknowledging the hurt caused, praying for wisdom and discernment, understanding the full scope of the behavior, involving the appropriate adults, and encouraging a daughter to take responsibility for her actions. Rather than minimizing or excusing sinful behavior, Christian parents have the privilege of demonstrating God's mercy by helping their daughters walk the path of genuine repentance and lasting restoration. If you've ever wondered how to respond when your daughter makes a poor choice, this episode offers hope-filled encouragement that God doesn't waste our parenting challenges. Even difficult conversations can become opportunities to point our girls toward the transforming grace of Jesus Christ. Three Things to Consider: Address harmful behavior with honesty and grace. Accountability is an act of love that points your daughter toward lasting heart transformation. Pray for wisdom before responding. Ask God to help you see the full situation clearly and guide your daughter with both truth and compassion. Pursue restoration, not simply consequences. Genuine confession, repentance, forgiveness, and reconciliation often take time, but they reflect the heart of the Gospel.

  • Ep. 408 - How to Parent Your Godly Girl when She is Targeted by Bullying
    2026/08/11
    When does unkind behavior cross the line into bullying—and how can Christian parents respond with both wisdom and grace? As a new school year begins, many parents wonder how to prepare their daughters for the complex social dynamics they'll inevitably encounter. While every unkind comment isn't bullying, repeated patterns of intimidation, exclusion, or harm can leave lasting wounds if left unaddressed. In this timely episode, Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose equip Christian parents to recognize the difference between everyday conflict and true bullying—and to respond with confidence rooted in a Biblical Worldview. Together, Rachael and Natalie explore why every person deserves dignity as an image-bearer of God, how bullying often takes shape through repeated relational patterns, and why middle school girls are especially vulnerable to navigating unhealthy peer dynamics and cyberbullying. Through a thoughtful Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay, parents are also encouraged to recognize the warning signs of unhealthy friendships and help their daughters identify red flags before harmful patterns become deeply rooted. The conversation offers practical, Gospel-centered guidance for families walking through bullying, including how to validate a daughter's pain without allowing her to embrace a victim identity, pray for wisdom and discernment, assess the situation carefully, involve trusted adults when necessary, and advocate courageously while still pursuing Biblical forgiveness when appropriate. Throughout the episode, listeners are reminded that protecting a daughter and extending Christlike grace are not opposing ideas—they can faithfully coexist. Whether your daughter attends public school, private school, homeschool, or a co-op, this back-to-school conversation will equip you to foster open communication, strengthen her confidence in Christ, and help her build healthy friendships grounded in truth, loyalty, and love. Three Things to Consider: Learn to distinguish between isolated unkindness and ongoing bullying. Patterns of repeated harm require thoughtful, proactive intervention. Create a safe place for your daughter to share her experiences. Listen carefully, ask wise questions, and seek God's guidance before responding. Advocate for your daughter with courage while modeling biblical forgiveness, trusting that God can bring healing, wisdom, and restoration even after painful experiences.

  • Ep. 407 – Grace for Every Story: Women in God's Redemptive Plan with Jen Oshman
    2026/08/08
    In a culture that constantly asks girls to define themselves on their own terms, the Bible offers a far more hopeful and life-giving truth: every girl has a purposeful place in God's redemptive story. In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, Melissa Bearden sits down with author, speaker, and ministry leader Jen Oshman to explore how Scripture answers some of the most important questions girls are asking today about identity, purpose, and belonging. Together, they discuss what it means to understand humanity through a Biblical lens—and why God's design for women is both beautiful and essential to His greater plan. Drawing from her years of global ministry experience as a missionary and church planter in Japan and the Czech Republic, Jen shares how the Gospel speaks powerfully across cultures and life circumstances. Now serving in ministry in the United States, she offers thoughtful insight into how parents can help their daughters develop a Biblical Worldview that stands firm even in a rapidly changing culture. Melissa and Jen also address an important message for every girl to hear: no life story is too broken for redemption. Whether a girl is navigating cultural confusion, personal struggles, or past mistakes, the grace of Jesus Christ offers restoration, forgiveness, and a new identity rooted in truth. This conversation will encourage parents to disciple their daughters with confidence, reminding them that God is actively at work in every life—and that girls who understand His grace can grow into women who walk in courage, humility, and faith. Scriptures Referenced in This Episode: Genesis 1:27 Psalm 139:13–14 Isaiah 43:1 Luke 8:1–3 Romans 8:1 2 Corinthians 5:17 Ephesians 2:8–10 To learn more about Jen Oshman, visit jenoshman.com Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.      Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.
