The Unshakeable Mother: Anchored to His Word in an Age of Fear | Ep. 024
If you have been losing sleep over the state of the world, this episode is for you.
We talk about what it truly means to surrender anxiety to Christ, the difference between being informed and being consumed, and what it looks like to be the thermostat of your home when everything outside it feels uncertain.
Your mission field has not moved. It is still right here, inside your home and inside your prayers, and this episode will help you show up for it with peace that only God can give.
IN THIS EPISODE:
Why anxiety does not change what happens outside your home, but it does affect what happens inside it
The difference between being anchored to His Word versus anchored to state of the world
Why prophecy fulfilled is a reason to trust, not to fear
Your real mission field and why it does not move with the headlines
The News Fast challenge and how to carry the lessons forward

The Courageous Mother: Raising Children Who Will Not Bow | Ep. 023
In this episode, Karla explores a question that is on every Christian mother's heart right now: what do we do with the fear we feel about our children's future?
Drawing from the lives of Daniel, the three Hebrew boys, and the unnamed little maid of 2 Kings 5, and Moses, Karla shows us a pattern: children who stood firm in hostile territory had been shaped before the fire came. Their courage had roots. And those roots were planted at home, in the ordinary moments, by faithful mothers.

The Quiet Trust: What Scripture's Bravest Mothers Teach Us | Ep. 022
Welcome to Hearth Prayers, a sacred pause for Christian mothers who want to begin their week anchored in faith.
In this episode, we sit with five women of Scripture whose stories speak directly to the modern mother carrying more than she expected.
From the widow who poured oil into empty vessels, to Hannah who wept through years of unanswered longing, to the Shunammite woman who declared "It is well" in the middle of grief, these women show us that God has never once abandoned a mother who trusted Him.
If the evenings feel heavy or you simply need a reminder that God sees every quiet act of love, this episode is for you.
IN THIS EPISODE:
Five women of the Bible who trusted God when their provider was not present
How the Widow with the Oil modeled courageous obedience in grief
What "It is well" teaches us about faith before evidence
How Hannah's persistent prayer is still a model for mothers today
The Vessel Challenge, a week-long practice for releasing what you have been carrying alone
