Have you ever walked away from a conversation with your husband thinking, Why did I say it like that? Or felt that tension in the air when your tone didn’t match your heart? If you long for deeper connection, softer communication, and a marriage marked by emotional safety — but stress, old habits, and unspoken expectations keep getting in the way — this episode is for you.

In today’s Spirit Filled Girl Talk conversation, we’re continuing our Purposeful Wife series inspired by the 28-Day Purposeful Wife Challenge, and we’re getting into the heart-level details that can transform the atmosphere of your home: the power of your words, the posture of respect, the role of affection, and the emotional warmth you carry.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about discipleship in marriage — letting the Holy Spirit shape your heart, your tone, and your responses so your marriage reflects Jesus with tenderness, truth, and peace.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why tone matters more than you realize — and how it impacts emotional connection

• The biblical truth that life and death are in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21)

• How criticism slowly erodes intimacy — and how gratitude rebuilds closeness

• Why gentleness is not weakness, but strength, wisdom, and self-control

• How a gentle and quiet spirit is precious to God (1 Peter 3:3–4)

• The role of affection and physical warmth in building unity (Song of Solomon 1:2)

• Why encouragement is the soil where growth takes root — spiritually and emotionally

• How to stop “vent culture” and start praying Scripture over your husband instead

If you’ve been feeling convicted, tender, or simply hungry for a healthier rhythm in your marriage, let this be your reminder: small Spirit-led shifts carry profound power. Your words matter. Your tenderness matters. And God is not inviting you into striving — He’s inviting you into deeper love, deeper peace, and deeper surrender.

This Isn't Small Talk.

Marriage can ask more of our hearts than we ever expected. And if you’re a Christian woman who feels exhausted from carrying what God never asked you to hold — trying to fix, manage, control, or shape your husband — this episode will meet you right where you are.

In today’s Spirit Filled Girl Talk conversation, we’re kicking off a special marriage-focused series inspired by the 28-Day Purposeful Wife Challenge. This isn’t about striving to be a “better wife” or checking spiritual boxes. It’s about discipleship in marriage — letting the Holy Spirit reshape your heart posture so you can live anchored, peaceful, and secure in Christ no matter what season your marriage is in.

We talk about why control is often an illusion rooted in fear, how it quietly steals peace and connection, and what it looks like to choose surrender to God instead. You’ll hear practical, Spirit-led ways to release over-management, replace reactivity with pause, and learn to trust God fully with outcomes you were never meant to carry.

In this episode, we cover:

• How surrender brings peace in Christ where striving never could
• Why fear often disguises itself as “responsibility” in marriage
• Practical ways to release control and stop over-managing your home or husband
• A biblical view of submission as strength, alignment, and trust in action
• How to “stand down” and let God lead — while still walking in wisdom and discernment
• Why unforgiveness and replaying past offenses can keep a marriage stuck
• How to move from manipulation or pressure into honest, Christ-centered communication
• Why patience is often less about waiting on your husband and more about waiting on God’s timing

If you’ve been longing for a marriage marked by peace, unity, and spiritual growth — this episode is an invitation to breathe again. Becoming a purposeful wife isn’t about doing more. It’s about loosening your grip, returning to Jesus, and taking one surrendered step at a time in faith over fear.

Your Body Is His Temple Series: Holistic Health from a Biblical Perspective (Body, Soul, & Spirit)

Have you ever wondered how your physical health connects to your spiritual life — or felt conflicted about caring for your body even though you love Jesus and want to honor Him? If you’re a Christian woman who feels tired, overwhelmed, or unsure how faith and health fit together, this conversation is for you.

In this episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we’re introducing a brand-new monthly teaching series called Your Body Is His Temple — a Christ-centered exploration of holistic health through a biblical lens. This first episode focuses on the body, and what it truly means that your physical body is the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit — not as a metaphor, but as a spiritual reality that transforms how you live, rest, eat, move, and heal.

Together, we unpack what Scripture teaches about stewardship, worship, and discipleship as it relates to your physical body. We talk about why caring for your health is not about striving, perfection, or control — but about surrender to God, obedience, and honoring what He has entrusted to you. When you begin to see your body through biblical truth instead of culture or the wellness industry, everything shifts.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What the Bible really means when it says your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit

• Why stewarding your health is an act of worship, not works

• How Christ-centered living includes how you care for your physical body

• The role of rest, nourishment, movement, boundaries, and discernment

• Why symptoms are communication, not inconvenience

• How to honor your body without making health an idol

• The difference between stewardship and striving in your healing journey

This conversation is an invitation to move from burnout to peace, from confusion to clarity, and from performance to Christ-centered living. It’s about learning to trust God with your body, walk in faith over fear, and grow in spiritual maturity through small, faithful, daily choices.

If you’ve been longing for alignment — body, soul, and spirit — this episode will help you reconnect your health to your identity in Christ, your God-given purpose, and your walk of discipleship.

Have you ever felt hurt by someone’s words, actions, or misunderstandings — and noticed your flesh rise up before your faith?

If you’re a Christian woman longing to grow in faith, walk in obedience, and respond with grace instead of reaction, this episode will meet you right where you are.

In this Spirit-led conversation, we explore what it truly means to bleed the Word when we're cut — allowing Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and Biblical truth to shape our responses when life applies pressure. Instead of striving, self-protection, or emotional reaction, God invites us into surrender, spiritual maturity, and deeper intimacy with Jesus.

Using the imagery of grapes becoming wine, we unpack how God uses seasons of crushing, waiting, and refining to produce Christ-like responses, spiritual growth, and lasting character. These refining seasons are not signs of abandonment — they are evidence of God’s faithfulness and His commitment to your God-given purpose.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why what comes out under pressure reveals your current heart posture
• How to respond in faith over fear instead of reacting in the flesh
• What the Bible teaches about renewing your mind and guarding your words
• How daily encounters with God strengthen trust in Jesus and obedience to God
• Why Spirit-filled sisterhood and Christian community are essential for discipleship and spiritual growth
• How to walk in peace and purpose even in seasons of testing

If you’re craving deeper faith, clearer discernment, and a more Christ-centered responses to life’s challenges, this conversation will encourage you to slow down, surrender control, and let God do His refining work.

You are not broken — you are being formed. And as you remain abiding in Christ, what flows out of you will reflect His heart.

Have you ever felt that quiet pull of comparison — that subtle longing for what someone else has — and suddenly the life God entrusted to you doesn’t feel like enough? Maybe it’s her season, her marriage, her calling, her friendships, her body, her home… and before you know it, contentment starts slipping, peace feels harder to hold onto, and your heart feels spiritually distracted. Friend, this all impacts our faith growth.

In this episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we’re going straight to the root: coveting. Not just “wanting something,” but the deeper heart posture that imagines a better life outside of God’s will — and quietly steals your faith, peace in Christ, and confidence to trust God fully.

Together, we unpack the biblical warning found in the story of Ahab and Naboth and how unsurrendered desire can open doors to compromise, entitlement, manipulation, and spiritual warfare — including what Scripture reveals about the spirit of Jezebel and how it targets your identity in Christ, your God-given purpose, your marriage, your home, and your Kingdom assignment.

But we don’t stop at conviction — we move into freedom.

You’ll learn how contentment becomes the antidote to coveting and a powerful act of surrender to God. We talk about what it looks like to abide in Christ, practice radical gratitude, take every thought captive, and return to your first love — Jesus — so you can walk in obedience, maintain faith over fear, guard your heart, and stay rooted in your identity in Christ with confidence and joy.

In this episode, we cover:

• What coveting really is (and why it’s more than comparison)
• How unsurrendered desire can become idolatry and lead to compromise
• Why discernment matters for spotting spiritual warfare early
• How to close the door to Jezebel’s influence in your heart and home
• Practical steps for choosing contentment, obedience, and peace
• How Spirit-filled sisterhood and Christian community support discipleship and spiritual growth

If you’re a Christian woman who’s ready to release comparison, reclaim contentment, and trust God’s timing with your calling and your life — this conversation will strengthen your faith and reset your heart posture.

As a new year begins, many Christian women feel an unspoken pressure to do more, fix more, try harder, and finally “get it right.” But what if God isn’t asking you to strive at all? What if He’s inviting you into something deeper — abiding in Christ and learning true contentment?

In this opening episode of Season 2 of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, Sarah Phillipe and Satin Pelfrey invite you into a Spirit-led conversation about heart posture over performance, faith over fear, and learning how to trust God fully instead of chasing outcomes. This episode is for the woman who feels spiritually tired, emotionally stretched, or quietly longing for peace, clarity, and deeper intimacy with Jesus.

Together, Sarah and Satin reflect on how God shaped their hearts in the previous season — through surrender, obedience, healing, and quiet refining — and how He is now calling them (and you) into a new posture for the year ahead. Sarah shares her word for the year, abide, unpacking what Scripture teaches about remaining rooted in Christ, staying connected to the Vine, and drawing life from Him rather than from striving. Satin shares her word for the year, contentment, revealing how a settled trust in God’s timing and portion protects your peace, guards your calling, and frees you from comparison.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What it truly means to abide in Christ according to John 15
• Why God often deepens your inner life before expanding your outer assignment
• How contentment is not complacency, but confident trust in God
• Why comparison quietly pulls us out of our God-given purpose
• How to walk in obedience, peace, and clarity without pressure or performance

Sarah and Satin also introduce Season 2’s new series, “Your Body Is His Temple,” where they’ll explore honoring God with your whole life — spirit, soul, and bod y— through biblical stewardship rather than fear or control. They also invite listeners into their brand-new Spirit Filled Sisterhood community, a Christ-centered space for Christian women to grow in faith, discipleship, and authentic sisterhood together.

If you’re longing for a slower, more surrendered way of living… If you’re craving deeper faith, peace in Christ, and Spirit-filled community… If you’re ready to stop striving and start abiding…

This episode will gently guide your heart into the new year with truth, encouragement, and hope.

Because you were never meant to walk this journey alone. You were created for faith, friendship, purpose, and Christ-centered living.

This isn’t' small talk.

Are you feeling the pressure to keep producing, keep showing up, and keep holding everything together — even when your heart is tired and God is gently calling you to slow down? You’re not alone, sister.

In this special Christmas episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we’re sharing why we’re stepping into a season of rest and how God is inviting you to do the same. As Christian women, we often feel torn between our desire to walk boldly in our Kingdom purpose and the expectations of a world that glorifies hustle. But true transformation doesn’t come from striving — it comes from surrender.

Together, we’ll talk about: ✨ Why rest is a biblical act of obedience, not laziness ✨ How to trust God’s timing when everything in you wants to keep pushing ✨ What it looks like to walk in faith over fear during busy seasons ✨ How slowing down strengthens your purpose, peace, and intimacy with Jesus ✨ Why creating space for God’s presence prepares you for what He’s calling you to next

This episode is an invitation to breathe again — to pause, reflect, and remember the real reason we celebrate this season. Whether you’re overwhelmed, weary, or simply craving quiet with the Lord, this conversation will help you realign your heart with God’s pace and embrace a Christ-centered rhythm of rest.

We can’t wait to step into the next season with you — renewed, restored, and rooted in Him.Until then… rest, surrender, and trust that God is moving even when you’re standing still.

Feeling like you’ve done all the right Christian things — praying, serving, showing up at church — yet your life still doesn’t look anything like the breakthrough you’ve been praying for? Maybe God asked you to lay something down — a business, a relationship, a form of idolatry or counterfeit spirituality in your life — and now you’re in a season of waiting, wondering, Did I really hear God’s voice? Is this what obedience and surrender are supposed to feel like?

In this episode of Spirit Filled Girl Talk, we’re having a real conversation about God’s redemption and favor through obedience. We share how for us, saying yes to Jesus in the holistic health world, meant walking away from divination and idols and how that costly obedience — emotionally, relationally, and financially — became the doorway to deeper surrender, clearer purpose, and a more Christ-centered calling. This is about moving from striving to trusting God fully, from fear of the unknown to walking in faith over fear, and from people-pleasing to living for an Audience of One.

You’ll hear:

• How to discern God’s voice and walk in spiritual discernment when obedience doesn’t make sense.

• Why delayed or partial obedience keeps you from experiencing the fullness of God's favor and purpose.

• The role of repentance, humility, and discipleship in experiencing true redemption and restoration.

• What it looks like to build daily rhythms of small, faithful obediences — rooted in prayer, Scripture, and intimacy with God — that cultivate favor over time.

• How God used a season of pause, loss, and laying things down to birth a new, Spirit-filled ministry, deeper Christian sisterhood, and this very podcast.

If you’re a modern Christian woman who feels spiritually exhausted, misunderstood, or afraid of what obedience might cost, this episode will remind you that God’s love, grace, and redemption are already at work in your story. His favor isn’t reserved for the perfect — it’s poured out on the submitted.

You were created for Kingdom purpose, called to walk by faith, not by sight, and invited into Christ-centered sisterhood that points you back to your identity in Christ. Your “yes” to Jesus — no matter how small — can become the turning point of your whole story.

This isn't small talk.
