What happens when life’s emergencies feel like a roaring lion chasing you down, and you don't have the time or emotional energy for a long, polished prayer?

Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a timely and encouraging devotional on Psalm 70, a short, punchy chapter that gives us biblical permission to cut straight to the chase and cry out for God’s immediate rescue.

Acting as an urgent, standalone remix of the final verses of Psalm 40—much like singing the powerful chorus of a song on repeat—Psalm 70 strips away the formalities of structured prayer formats when crisis hits. Jaime explores the fascinating shift in Hebrew language within this passage, where David calls upon both Elohim—the mighty Creator who brings order out of chaos—and Yahweh—the deeply personal, covenant-keeping Father who knows His children by name.

Addressing the common fear that repeatedly begging God to hurry demonstrates a lack of faith, Jaime contrasts the beauty of persistent prayer against the danger of taking matters into our own hands like Abram and Sarai. She reminds us that just like the persistent widow in the Gospels, knocking urgently on heaven's door is actually what keeps us anchored in trust rather than scrambling to force our own solutions.

Come ready to lay down your most time-sensitive burdens—the pressing crises, the relentless opposition, and the desperate moments where you feel like time is running out. Let this episode remind you that crying out "Lord, do not delay!" is not an act of doubt, but an invitation for our Deliverer to step into your chaos. Because He is both the sovereign Creator of the universe and a loving Father who hears your urgent cries, who guards you from stumbling into your own fixes, and whose perfect timing will never fail those who seek Him.

507 Praying Through Psalms 70: When You Need God to Hurry!

How do you hold onto the memory of God’s faithfulness when life moves on and new challenges arise?

Jaime and Alana explore the biblical concept of raising an “Ebenezer”—a tangible monument or stone of help that declares, “Thus far the Lord has helped us.”

While it’s easy to experience an answered prayer or a miraculous breakthrough and quickly move on to putting out the next fire, Scripture repeatedly shows God’s people setting up physical memorials to remember what He has done. The co-hosts unpack the stories of Samuel’s stone of help and the twelve polished stones pulled from the Jordan River, looking at how tangible reminders not only anchor our own faith during hard seasons, but also serve as natural conversation starters to pass our testimonies down to our children.

Through personal stories and everyday examples—from prayer journals, Christmas ornaments, and cross-country bibs to writing Bible verses on bare concrete floors after an Alaskan earthquake—Jaime and Alana share practical ways to create spiritual mileposts in your own home. Alana addresses the tension between celebrating accomplishments and false humility, while Jaime reflects on using physical prompts to persevere in prayer, intentional family reflection, and even the question of whether tattoos can serve as modern-day Ebenezers.

Together, they encourage us to surround ourselves with reminders of God’s goodness so we never forget how far He has brought us. Whether you’re looking for creative ways to share your faith story with your kids, needing encouragement to trust God with a new obstacle, or wanting to build a habit of reflection and gratitude, we hope this episode inspires you to look back on God’s faithfulness with fresh eyes and confidence for the road ahead.

506 Here I Raise My Ebenezer: Creating Tangible Reminders of God’s Faithfulness

What happens when the rising waters of life—whether a devastating health diagnosis, financial ruin, or the slow erosion of your reputation—leave you feeling completely trapped and sinking into the mire?

Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a deeply comforting and raw devotional on Psalm 69, a powerful chapter that meets us in our lowest moments of panic and anxiety, while pointing us toward the ultimate hope of our Redeemer.

Drawing from a vivid, real-life illustration of Alaska’s treacherous glacial mudflats and rapidly rushing bore tides, Jaime paints an unforgettable picture of what David meant when he cried out that the waters had risen to his neck with no foothold in sight. She explores how David’s desperate pleas give us permission to bring our own untidy, raw, and seemingly hopeless emotions directly to the throne of grace, reminding us that authenticity and trust go hand in hand when we are straining our eyes waiting for God to move.

Along the way, we see how David’s deep distress foreshadows the suffering of Jesus on the cross, and Jaime thoughtfully unpacks the challenging concept of "imprecatory prayers"—those jarring verses where David calls down God’s wrath upon his adversaries. Through the lens of New Testament grace, she offers wise, practical perspective on shifting our focus away from flesh-and-blood enemies to recognize the true spiritual battle against the principalities of darkness.

Come ready to lay down your deepest anxieties—the exhausting false accusations, the overwhelming debts, and the situations threatening to swallow you whole. Let this episode remind you that our Savior is bigger than the fiercest tides working against you. Because He is a God who hears the needy, who lifts our feet out of the suffocating silt to set us securely on high, and whose redeeming power can turn even the very seas that threatened to drown us into a chorus of praise for His glory.

How do you redeem screen time and turn everyday media into a meaningful tool for your family’s spiritual growth?

This week, Jess Wolstenholm—VP of Education and Research at Minno and veteran of 25 years in children’s ministry—joins Jaime for an encouraging conversation on helping kids and families experience Jesus every day, both on and off screens.

In this episode, Jess shares the heart behind Minno, a Christian children’s streaming platform featuring everything from beloved classics like VeggieTales to high-quality originals crafted by creatives from Disney and Pixar, including Young David, God’s Greenhouse, and Micah.

Jess also dives into her work as the executive producer and editor of the Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids animated series and storybook Bibles, including their newest release, The Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids: Jesus Stories. She explains how to teach foundational theology to young, concrete thinkers without watering down the truth of the Gospel.

Jess also tackles the intimidation many parents and grandparents feel when trying to disciple their kids at home, offering a refreshing look at why modeling "intellectual humility" and curiosity is far more powerful than having all the answers. You’ll walk away with practical, pressure-free ideas for balancing your family’s "media diet" and using simple, everyday moments as a springboard for organic conversations about faith.

504 How to Raise Kids Who Love Jesus in a Screen-Filled World with Jess Wolstenholm from Minno

Is there a point in praying for world peace if the Bible says things have to get worse first?

In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a complex theological question that has puzzled believers for generations: Should we pray for world peace, or should we pray to hasten Christ’s return?

When end-times prophecies point toward tribulation, war, and global turmoil, it can be easy to grow passive in our prayers—or worse, assume that global suffering is necessary to speed up Jesus’ second coming. The co-hosts explore how popular culture and competing eschatological views can shape our prayer lives, and why trying to orchestrate the fulfillment of prophecy can lead our hearts and motivations astray.

Through honest reflection, biblical wisdom, and a memorable story about Alaskan fireweed, Jaime and Alana discuss the tension between longing for heaven and loving a hurting world right now. Alana shares how the Lord’s Prayer guides us to ask for God's mercy and peace in the midst of suffering rather than wishing for hardship, while Jaime reflects on viewing the timing of Christ’s return through the lens of God’s grace—and why we should never place our ultimate hope in secular or political systems to manufacture a human-led utopia.

Together, they encourage us to fix our eyes on Jesus and remain faithful to the work He has given us today, rather than getting lost in the weeds of end-times timelines. Whether you’re fascinated by the book of Revelation, feeling overwhelmed by global conflict, or simply wondering how to pray for a broken world, we hope this episode brings you clarity, peace, and a renewed heart to be salt and light until He comes again.

Why does God seem to answer other people’s prayers, but not yours?

In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a deeply personal question that can leave us feeling overlooked, discouraged, and afraid to ask what’s really on our hearts: Does God love me less?

When someone else celebrates a miraculous healing or shares another incredible answer to prayer, it can be difficult to rejoice while you’re still waiting—or grieving an outcome you never wanted. The co-hosts explore how hearing only the highlights of other people’s prayer lives can shape our perception of God’s work, and how comparison can cause us to overlook the ways He is already providing for us.

Through personal stories of answered prayer and painful loss, Jaime and Alana discuss the temptation to blame God, ourselves, or others when our prayers have different outcomes. Jaime shares how keeping a prayer journal helped her recognize God’s work in her life, while Alana offers a simple practice for building gratitude into everyday moments. They also explore how to share testimonies with compassion, celebrating what God has done without suggesting that a particular outcome is guaranteed if we just pray hard enough.

Together, they encourage us to bring our jealousy, disappointment, and unanswered questions honestly to God, while making room for both gratitude and grief. Whether you’re struggling to celebrate someone else’s blessing, wondering why your own prayers seem unanswered, or looking for a more sensitive way to share your story, we hope this episode brings you comfort, fresh perspective, and reassurance that a different answer to prayer does not mean you are less loved.

How do you know when it's time to keep persevering in prayer, and when it's time to accept that God is saying "no"?

In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle one of the most difficult and painful questions in a believer's prayer life: dealing with unanswered prayers. 
When you have prayed fervently for a specific outcome—like healing, a job, a spouse, or a child—and God remains silent, how do you know if you should keep knocking like the persistent widow, or accept a "thorn in the flesh" like the Apostle Paul?

The co-hosts dive deep into the theology of prayer disappointment, addressing the tension between the biblical promises that "God will give you whatever you ask" and the very real human experience of devastating loss. Jaime shares a deeply personal story about praying for the miraculous healing of a dear friend with cancer, while Alana unpacks the concept of the "prayer behind the prayer"—how the Holy Spirit translates our specific requests into God's perfect will for us.

Together, they explore the three ways God often redirects our prayer burdens: putting a block in our spirit, diverting our focus to a new prayer, or preparing our hearts to accept a different answer. Whether you are feeling "prayed out," wrestling with a long-term burden, or simply needing someone to hold up your arms like Moses, we hope this episode brings you comfort, fresh perspective, and the courage to bring your most raw emotions to the Lord.

500 Coffee Break: Prayer, Perseverance & Processing God's "No"

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/1ffaed7f-ace1-434b-ac64-b4d300d2a5e0/transcript

What happens when our reliance on prayer crosses the line into complacency or fatalism?

In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a fascinating listener question: 
Can depending on prayer make you too complacent in your day-to-day life?

Using the highly relatable example of losing your keys—do you pray for them to turn up or immediately tear the house apart looking for them?—they dive deep into the tension between trusting God's provision and taking practical action.

The co-hosts explore how personality types (like being a natural "activator") play a huge role in how we approach this balance. Jaime shares a remarkable story about finding a lost bolt in the garage after stopping to pray, as well as her current journey of blending practical parenting strategies with fervent prayer. Meanwhile, Alana unpacks how genuine prayer actually engages our subconscious and prompts us to action, whether we are praying for weight loss, lost items, or big life decisions.

With a bit of laughter, they also admit that there actually might be a wrong way to pray: using it as a spiritual "post-it note" to avoid taking necessary action. 

Whether you are job hunting, navigating parenthood, or just trying to find your missing hearing aid, we hope this episode encourages you to stop hiding behind prayer as an excuse, and instead let it deeply transform your everyday actions!

499 Coffee Break: Faith, Fatalism & Finding Your Keys

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/4e128e61-13c8-48aa-87cf-b4cc00c96ab6/transcript

Have you ever felt guilty for not sharing the gospel with every stranger you meet, or wondered if "just praying" for someone is an excuse to avoid an awkward conversation?

This week, Alana and Jaime dive into an honest and thought-provoking conversation on the complex intersection of evangelism, prayer, and how to authentically share your faith without feeling like a phony.

In this episode, Jaime shares a fascinating story about self-proclaimed atheist Penn Jillette (of the magic duo Penn & Teller) receiving a pocket New Testament from a fan—and how that respectful, grounded encounter left a surprisingly positive impression on him. Together, Alana and Jaime unpack the tension between the fear of forced, awkward "cold-call" evangelism and the spiritual danger of using our introverted personalities as an excuse to never share the good news.

Alana and Jaime also tackle the profound beauty of discovering your unique "witnessing persona." Drawing inspiration from the quiet, relationship-building approach of the biblical Andrew versus the loud, upfront preaching of Peter, they explain why God has equipped you to share Jesus in a way that perfectly fits your specific design, gifting, and emotional intelligence.

You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on how to trust the Holy Spirit's timing, a practical journaling exercise to help you uncover the most effective way you can reach unbelievers, and the beautiful freedom of knowing you don't have to fit a specific mold to be used by God.
