Beyond Believing: Helping Christian Women Heal Post Divorce

There's a woman in Luke 10 who does everything right — and Jesus tells her the thing she's avoiding is the thing she actually needs. It's nearly four years since my own divorce, and God is still teaching me that same lesson, in places I didn't expect.

There's a woman in Luke 10 who does everything a good host, a good servant, a good woman "should" do — and Jesus tells her the very thing she's avoiding is the one thing t...

Rahab is introduced in Scripture by the worst label her culture could give a woman — and that word never goes away. Not in Joshua. Not in Hebrews. Not in James. But a few generations later, that same woman is written into the family line of Jesus, and called faithful in the same breath Scripture still calls her "the prostitute."

In this episode, I walk through three moments in Rahab's story — the spies she hid and lied ...

I always assumed the beloved wife is the one God favors. Genesis says otherwise.

Rachel had her husband's devotion. Leah had God's attention. And it's Leah's line — not Rachel's — that carries the Messiah forward.

In this episode, we walk through Genesis 29–31 and 35: the wedding-night deception nobody saw coming, the sister nobody chose, and the rivalry that followed between two women wounded in completely differ...

Beyond Believing was recently named one of the top Christian divorce podcasts on the web by FeedSpot.

Thank you to everyone who listens, shares, and leaves a review — this recognition exists because of you. 

You have probably felt left to fend for yourself at some point in your marriage or your divorce — exposed, discarded, uncovered by someone who was supposed to protect you. That wound is real, and it is ancient...

After my divorce, I learned I was fluent in giving and illiterate in receiving. It's taken four ordinary years — and three places in Scripture — to teach me the difference between performing love and actually receiving it. This episode is that story.

Beyond Believing was just named one of FeedSpot's Top 14 Christian Divorce Podcasts — thank you for being part of why this show is reaching more women than ever. http...

A few days ago I was on a walk, listening to Judges 16, and I couldn't believe how obviously foolish Samson was being — three times warned, three times he handed Delilah more of himself anyway. Then a second thought stopped me cold: how obvious is it to the people who love me, when I'm doing the exact same thing?

This episode is the answer to that question. It's the story of a walk that turned into a confession, a chapter in ...

I had the intact home. The husband. Five kids. On paper, nothing was wrong. Everyone on the outside thought we had the ideal home. This week, I'm telling you what was actually happening underneath it — and about a woman in Scripture whose story I read years before my own marriage and never understood until it was already too late to have it going in.

In this episode, we go back to Genesis 24 — the marriage the Bible des...

God once commanded a prophet to marry a woman known for infidelity — not after she cleaned up her life, but in the middle of it. This episode is about what that means for you.

God told the prophet Hosea to marry a woman who kept running back to other men. Not once — repeatedly. For centuries, that story has been read as being about her sin. It isn't. It's about how f...

Grief has been close this month — the sudden loss of a beloved young friend, and the grief so many women carry for a marriage that ended. In this episode, Katie shares two kinds of grief she sees in the women she works with, a truth from a pastor who buried his own son, and the promise in Scripture that lets you grieve and trust God at the same time — without letting grief become who you are.

Scripture referenced: Roman...

Have you ever thought, "I just don't let people in anymore"? There's a verse people misuse to make women like you feel guilty for being guarded — but the truth is far kinder than the guilt.

In this episode, I'm unpacking Matthew 23:37 — the moment Jesus grieves over Jerusalem's willful rejection of Him — and why that passage has nothing to do with a woman who's simply never been shown true, godly covering. Through...

I always believed asking for help made me weak. This week, waiting on God finally showed me why that was a lie.

I've always believed that being weak, being vulnerable, are dangerous positions to be in — especially after you've already been hurt by trusting the wrong person. So this week, in the middle of a season after my divorce that feels full of nothing but waiting, I did something I genuinely never do anymore.

In this epi...

If you ever believed that God protects us by standing between us and whatever's coming — a wall, a barrier, something in front of us like I did, I found that's not the only posture Scripture describes.

Deuteronomy 33:27 says underneath are the everlasting arms. Not just in front. Not just behind. Underneath. And once you understand why God would position Himself there, you'll never read that verse — or your own story &m...

There is something I want you to know before you press play.

At the end of this episode, there is an invitation. Not an assignment. Not a challenge. An invitation — to sit with a question that I believe has the potential to change everything about the way you see yourself, the way you receive love, and the way you relate to God.

You don't have to be ready for it. You just have to stay until the end.

Here is what this episode ...
