It only takes a few minutes of watching the latest news update, or catching the tail-end of a reality TV show to realize that our culture has labeled respect toward authority figures as outdated and unnecessary. Now, more than ever, our culture in desperate need of Christlike women of strength and honor! Leslie uncovers the spirit of the age and shows you how you can be on guard against a disrespectful attitude toward authorities and gain a heavenly vision for honoring parents, leaders, and elders.

Have you ever wondered how you can find your true identity or reach your full potential? In this new podcast episode, Leslie will walk you through the refreshing reality of what it looks like for your life to hidden in Christ – and what it means to identify yourself with the death, life, and resurrection of Jesus. You will quickly discover that the greatest question isn’t really, “Who am I?” but “Whose am I? And how does that change the daily reality of my life?” Join Leslie for this surprisingly refreshing reminder to lose your life for Christ’s sake, and thus, truly find it. 

A common concept buzzing around in women’s circles in Christianity today is learning to “forgive yourself.” Is there truth to this statement? And if so, how do we learn to forgive ourselves for past sin? In this new episode, Leslie uncovers the misunderstanding that the concept of “forgiving yourself” is rooted in and shares the freeing truth and practical applications in receiving God’s forgiveness. Rather than of brushing off the pardon God has extended to us through the blood of His Son, we must be armed with the truth of His Word to understand the amazing gift of His forgiveness and the freedom from sin He has purchased for us!

Join Leslie Ludy for a brand new Q&A episode in our Set Apart Woman series. Leslie tackles challenging topics, like whether online dating is good or bad, how to act around a godly man you are attracted to, and what to do when you are tempted to lower your standards. As Christian women today feel an immense pressure to follow the path of the culture in relationships, it is imperative that we are armed with a biblical mindset to navigate this area in a God-honoring way. Whether you are single, or you are a married woman with a position of influence in a single woman’s life – this practical Q&A will be sure to give you fresh biblical perspective on these challenging topics!

If you’re ready to let go of lukewarm living, tune into this week’s podcast as Leslie traverses the challenging topic of “friendship with the world.” Many voices in our modern Christian culture promote the idea that we will best reach the lost world for Christ when we sidle up to the culture and befriend its passing whims. But what does God’s word state on the matter? In the 20 minutes you spend listening to this episode, you will be deeply encouraged to grapple with what God says about friendship with the world – and you will be freshly propelled to put away this world’s passing pleasures and cling tightly to Him instead.

Defeat doesn’t have to define your walk with Christ. As Leslie shares, victory is not often realized because the power of the Gospel is not fully grasped in our lives. Walk away from frustrated Christianity and learn the power of “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

Counterfeit honesty has infiltrated our culture, telling us to just “be real.” Yet, Christ intended for us to walk in the light as He is in the light, using our words – whether written or spoken – to be filled with grace – not gossip, venting, or ranting. Leslie redefines the cultural view of honesty and replaces it with biblical examples of how to be honest without compromise.
