What happens when following Jesus costs you something? Maybe God is asking you to surrender a relationship, a dream, a career, the approval of others, comfort, or simply the version of your life you thought you'd have. In this episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we're having some honest girl talk about the cost of following Jesus and why walking in obedience to God sometimes requires letting go—even when what we're surrendering isn't bad. Discover how surrender and real sisterhood transform our walk with Jesus. Join sisters in Christ as we discuss the hard truths that deepen our faith.

• In this episode, we discuss:
• Why following Jesus requires surrender
• The biblical cost of discipleship
• When God asks you to let go of something good
• How to trust God when obedience is painful
• Surrendering dreams and plans for your life
• Why God wants our hearts, not just our obedience
• Discovering that Jesus really is enough

If God is asking you to loosen your grip on something you love, you don't have to understand His entire plan to trust the One leading you. Surrender isn't the end of the story. In God's Kingdom, it's often where the story begins.

What happens when you're following Jesus and growing closer to God, but the friendships, invitations, and rhythms of your old life keep calling you back? In this sisterhood episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we're talking about the uncomfortable in-between that can happen when God changes your desires and priorities—but the people you love haven't necessarily changed with you. How do you honor what God is doing without becoming judgmental, rejecting people you care about, or falling back into people pleasing?

Together, we explore outgrowing friendships as a Christian, navigating changing relationships with grace, and learning when God may be asking you to step back, participate differently, or simply trust Him one invitation at a time.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why spiritual growth can change your friendships
• Outgrowing old rhythms without rejecting people
• People pleasing and the fear of disappointing others
• How to say no with grace instead of over-explaining
• When God may change the setting instead of the relationship
• How to discern whether God is saying yes, no, or not yet

Following Jesus isn't simply learning how to say no. It's learning to recognize His invitation above every other invitation.

If you're caught between the life that no longer fits and the life God is still unfolding, we pray this conversation helps you walk forward with wisdom, grace, and trust.

Have you ever realized you just don't fit in anymore? The conversations you once enjoyed feel different. Certain friendships or places don't feel like home anymore. You're growing closer to Jesus—but somewhere along the way, you started wondering, Am I becoming judgmental? Is something wrong with me? In this sisterhood episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we're talking about what it really means to be set apart by God and why spiritual growth sometimes comes with unexpected loneliness and grief.

As we grow closer to Jesus, He doesn't just change our behavior—He transforms our desires, priorities, and even where we feel at home. We'll explore the biblical meaning of being set apart, what to do when you begin outgrowing old friendships or rhythms, and how to discern the difference between spiritual transformation and becoming judgmental or self-righteous.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What it means to be set apart by God
• Why growing closer to Jesus can feel lonely
• Outgrowing friendships and old versions of yourself
• How God changes our desires as we grow spiritually
• How to know if you're becoming judgmental or simply changing
• The fruit that reveals whether you're becoming more like Jesus

If you've been wondering why you don't feel at home in your old life anymore, maybe God isn't simply taking something away. Maybe He's inviting you into something better.
