   06 | Quit Dragging Your Feet: A Devotional from the Book of Numbers, Abundant Water is Coming...Are you ready to drink?

   In this episode of Preach It, Sister, Ashley dives deep into a topic many of us wrestle with but rarely enjoy addressing—delayed obedience. In "Quit Dragging Your Feet," Ashley shares her personal story of resisting God’s call for years out of fear of failure and the need for approval. She emphasizes that delayed obedience is ultimately disobedience and that it leads to unnecessary chaos in our lives. Drawing from Numbers 20:2-12, Ashley explores the story of Moses and Aaron, who—though obedient to God—only half-heartedly followed His instructions. Despite their doubt, God still provided water abundantly for the Israelites from a rock. Ashley reflects on how God remains faithful even when we are hesitant and how partial obedience can lead to missed blessings or consequences. Ashley invites listeners to examine their own hearts. Are you afraid of failure, of being wrong, or of losing control? This episode challenges you to face these fears and lean into quick obedience, trusting that God’s timing and plans are perfect. Whether you’re dragging your feet in an area of life, or struggling to fully trust God, this episode encourages transparency, healing, and stepping forward in faith. If you're ready for an overflow of God's abundance, join Ashley as she unpacks how faith, not fear, should guide your steps. This episode is a powerful reminder that God is calling you to stop delaying and start walking in obedience. Abundant water is coming—are you ready to drink? Tune in for this encouraging devotional and find out how you can prepare your heart for the overflow.

   05 | God is Smiling Upon You: A Devotional on God taking Delight in You

   In Episode 5 of Preach It Sister, titled “God is Smiling Upon You,” Ashley explores the depth of God’s love and delight over His people. She shares how, while sitting in a coffee shop, the Holy Spirit whispered to her that the message for this episode should be a reminder of God’s joy and affection. Inspired by Zephaniah 3:17, Ashley encourages listeners to embrace the truth that God is not only a mighty warrior but also one who rejoices over us with singing. This episode takes you on a journey through the book of Zephaniah, where God’s judgment transforms into hope, not just for Jerusalem but for all nations. Ashley emphasizes that God’s delight in us is a profound invitation—an invitation to allow Him to purify our hearts, heal our past wounds, and restore our confidence. With raw vulnerability, Ashley shares her personal experience of feeling forgotten and rejected in desert seasons, only to discover that God was smiling upon her all along. She recalls how, in a recent women’s retreat, she felt a tangible expression of God’s smile, even while holding the stories of others' pain and rejection. This episode is a powerful reminder that God’s smile is not dependent on our perfection but is rooted in His deep love for us. Whether you are in a season of joy or pain, God’s invitation to purification and delight is always available. Tune in to hear how you can embrace the overwhelming goodness of God in your life today.

   04 | The Invitation to Rest in Christ- A Devotional Exploring the Spiritual Formation Practice of Liturgical Prayers

   In episode 4 of the Preach It Sister podcast, titled "The Invitation to Rest in Christ," Ashley Forsberg guides listeners on a journey to discover the profound difference between ordinary rest and resting in Christ. She begins with a deep breathing exercise, inviting listeners to tune into their body’s need for rest as an analogy for the soul's need for spiritual rest. Resting in Christ, as Ashley explains, goes beyond the physical act of relaxation—it's about finding peace that surpasses understanding in a busy, anxious world. Through prayer and reflective breathing, Ashley introduces a liturgical practice that may be unfamiliar to some but deeply nourishing for those seeking rest for their weary hearts and minds. She encourages a shift from mere distraction or relaxation to finding solace in God, who offers true, life-giving peace. Ashley shares personal stories, including her experience of learning to sit in silence with God while studying in Australia and embracing scripture amidst the chaos of motherhood. She reveals that God’s invitations to rest often come in unexpected moments and different forms, whether through silence, prayer, or even art and creativity. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on how they might rest in Christ, asking God to reveal the unique practices that can guard their hearts and minds in the face of life’s stresses. This episode serves as an invitation to enter into the deep, soul-restoring peace that only Christ can provide—an unexplainable peace that carries us through life’s challenges.

   03 | God's Heart for His People to Preach...And it's Not What You Think- A Devotional on the Great Commission

   In this thought-provoking episode of the Preach it, Sister podcast, host Ashley Forsberg invites listeners to redefine what it means to "preach the gospel." Drawing inspiration from the Great Commission in Matthew 28, Ashley explores the broader, more inclusive understanding of preaching beyond formal church settings. She emphasizes that God's command to spread the gospel is not just for pastors or religious leaders, but for everyone, regardless of background or vocation. Ashley shares a personal moment of revelation from her prayer time, when God challenged her to tell His people that they are all called to preach. Through a deep dive into the original Greek word for "go" in the Great Commission, she uncovers a surprising meaning: to "order one’s life in such a way." This discovery reframes the act of preaching as not just a task of evangelism, but a lifestyle shaped by discipleship. Listeners are invited to consider how their own lives can reflect the gospel in everyday actions and conversations. Ashley encourages us to examine our spiritual formation and the way we lead our lives, reminding us that every word, every choice, preaches something—so let it be Jesus. Tune in to explore what it truly means to preach and how we can align our lives with God's heart for spreading His good news. This episode will inspire you to rethink your role in the mission of making disciples and how you can live out your faith in a more intentional, impactful way. GIVEAWAY INFO: Share the Love!

   02 | The Recipe of Doubt + Fear: A Devotional Navigating How Perfected Love Cast Out Fear

   In episode two of the Preach It Sister podcast, host Ashley Forsberg dives into two powerful ingredients that can leave us stuck and stagnant in our walk with God—doubt and fear. Drawing from personal experience, Ashley candidly shares how these emotions have crippled her own journey of faith and obedience, often keeping her from stepping into God’s call. Yet, her message isn't one of condemnation but rather an invitation to reshape our perspective. Using a baking metaphor, Ashley likens doubt and fear to adding salt when the recipe calls for sugar—seemingly small mistakes that can derail the whole process. She explains how, just like salt and fear, these emotions aren’t inherently bad; in the right amounts, they can serve a purpose. However, when we allow doubt to take over, it leads to disobedience, and when fear dominates, it can paralyze us from stepping into God’s mission. Ashley brings biblical wisdom into the conversation by unpacking 1 John 4:7-21, which beautifully illustrates how God’s love drives out fear. She explores how our relationship with God, much like mastering a recipe from a cookbook, becomes stronger when we know and trust His love. The more we abide in His love, the less room there is for fear to take hold. Through scripture, reflection, and real-life stories, this episode challenges listeners to step out of doubt and fear and into trust and obedience, knowing that God’s love makes us complete. Tune in to discover how reframing these emotions can transform your faith journey, one step at a time. GIVEAWAY INFO: Share the Love!

   01 | One Brave Yes- A Devotional on the Life of Ruth

   In the debut episode of the Preach It, Sister podcast, titled One Brave Yes, host Ashley Forsberg dives into the inspiring story of Ruth from the Old Testament. Ruth’s life provides a powerful example of how one brave, obedient decision can create a ripple effect that changes everything. This episode offers deep encouragement to anyone standing at a crossroads, facing uncertainty, or navigating through seasons of hardship. Ashley recounts Ruth’s courageous decision to leave behind her homeland, culture, and identity to follow her mother-in-law Naomi and embrace a new identity as an Israelite. Through Ruth’s choice to align herself with Naomi’s people and God, she not only survives but ultimately thrives, finding herself woven into the grand narrative of God’s redemptive plan through her marriage to Boaz, which places her in the lineage of Jesus Christ. Throughout the episode, Ashley encourages listeners to reflect on their own brave choices. She draws a parallel between Ruth’s journey and the daily decisions we face, emphasizing that one obedient step in faith can lead to profound transformation. Through personal anecdotes and reflections from her own life, Ashley shares how her initial yes to writing a book had an unexpected impact on a young girl’s spiritual life. This episode is a call to action, urging listeners to embrace their God-given identity, silence doubts, and boldly step forward in obedience. Ashley leaves her audience with the invitation to reflect on what God might be calling them to say yes to today and to trust in the life-changing power of that one brave yes.GIVEAWAY INFO: Share the Love!
