Her Faith Inspires Podcast

Last month, a young Haitian missionary couple were killed in the field. A lot of people condemned them for being in a dangerous country where their lives were at risk, saying they had no business being there. The real question is: is Christianity comfortable? Are we supposed to pick and choose where to take the gospel as long as it's safe and we know it won't cost us anything? Shanda discusses the core of Christianity and why looking for comfortable Christiantiy is dangerous. We look at missionaries who gave their lives for the sake of Christ as well as what Paul said in his epistle to the churches about his own missionary journeys. This episode is both encouraging and convicting as we push past our comfort zone into the uncharted territory of uncomfortable Christianity.      Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

Why do people arrive at their beliefs? Richard Suttles, otherwise known as The Faithiest Atheist, is here to discuss the importance of having civil conversations with people who don't think and believe like you. His background in counter-terrorism has led him to see there are only two steps in taking beliefs to a dangerous level. We discuss what those are and why it's important to be passionate about what you believe, yet balance it with mutual respect. We also discuss his "ministry" and why some atheists might not want him in their club.    Follow Richard on Facebook @TheFaitheistAtheist      Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop

There's a saying by parents that goes, "This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you." It's only until you become a parent yourself and are in the middle of disciplining your child that that statement rings true. In this episode, we talk about effective discipline of children and teens, and we get into how to deal with adult children living in your home. For those parents who don't like to discipline their kids becaues it hurts YOU too much - we talk about why that's selfish. Discipline is part of the long game in effectively training your child.   Check out the EMNR (Evangelical Missions to Non-Christian Religions) conference in Jacksonville, Fl in August.   https://emnr.org/conference/   Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

With culture encouraging women to find their purpose outside the home, SAH moms feel undervalued and under appreciated. But what does the Bible say? Shanda and her mom, Susan, talk about the ministry of motherhood. They share what that means and why a mom is the biggest influence in a child’s life, the sacrifices it takes to be there for your kids and why diligence is the key word in parenting.     Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

Can moms balance a successful and demanding career and a busy home? The cultural message is that we can, but is that true? It's impossible to give your best effort simultaneously to more than one aspiration. Everything else is going to get second best. Angela Mitchell from Raising Apologists is on the show to talk about why you can't have it all in motherhood, but you can have what's most fulfilling. We discuss why role models matter for little girls, and the three most important things a mom needs to remember when it comes to being in the thick of motherhood.  Find Angela Mitchell @RaisingApologists on Facebook and Instagram   Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

Whatever is at the center of your life shapes you. The atmosphere of the home helps a child understand what is most important. Where does the family gather to talk and are free to create? Are more words texted on a device than to each other? Shanda talks about the center of the home before technology and why parents are losing ground when it comes to influencing their children to follow God. No family is perfect, and since we're all humans and descendents of Adam and Eve, every family is disfunctional in some way. However, that doesn't mean there isn't a design for the home that will shape and develope a biblical worldview in your family.    Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

Should a husband and wife divulge all of their baggage to each other, especially before they get married? What is baggage? If something can be carried it can be put down. But that means it must be dealt with. Shanda talks about the three types of baggage that can crush a marriage and what you can do to make sure it doesn't. Choosing to love your spouse means you sacrifice how you feel for what's best for the marriage. How do you do that? All of these questions are discussed and answered so you know how to deal with baggage in your marriage.     Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

It's no secret that almost 50% of marriages end in divorce. When something becomes normalized in society that doesn't mean the church should stop speaking out about it. Unfortunately, the breakdown of the family is reflected in the breakdown of society. Shanda discusses the history of divorce in America and how it affects the family and children. If you think divorce does not ripple beyond you and impacts those around you, the statistics shared in this episode will cause you to re-think your position on divorce. Finally, Shanda will tell you why God hates divorce and you should too.   Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop  

In this first episode of the Marriage and Family series, Shanda lays out a defense for why marriage is not a social construct. With more people marrying later in life and less marriages overall, why do young people devalue marriage? The bottom line is that marriage is not only good for society, it's good for you. Shanda breaks down why the definition of marriage cannot be changed and how marriage makes you a better person overall.     Find Shanda www.shandafulbright.com Instagram & Facebook: @shandafulbright Email: hello@shandafulbright.com Free Resources: https://shandafulbright.com/links YouTube: http://bit.ly/ShandaYT2021 Store: www.Shandafulbright.com/shop
