Joyce Meyer's Talk It Out Podcast

What’s your favorite fruit?  No, we’re not talking about melons or apples or grapes or bananas or… well, you get where this is going.  What we ARE talking about is the fruit of the Spirit—otherwise known as love + joy + peace + patience + kindness + goodness + faithfulness + gentleness + self-control—and practical ways we can cultivate each one in our lives. Also, tune in to find out what a pufferfish and an Italian dressing bottle have to do with the fruit of the Spirit, and don’t forget that Joyce is joining us in 2 weeks for part 2, so don’t miss out!!

Y’ALL. Guess who’s joining us today. You might know her as one of the most honest, hilarious storytellers and Bible scholars teaching today… Or maybe as the one who was brave enough to become a mom at age 50 and adopt her beautiful daughter from another country… Or maybe you haven’t met her yet at all—in which case, you’re in for an absolute blast. Wondering who it is? Drumroll please…the dynamic Lisa Harper!! Tune in as Lisa + the girls talk through some of the deepest longings in our hearts—from marriage to careers to momming—and how to hold on to hope when those desires don’t fit others’ expectations or our timetable. It’s time to let your heart beat again.

In case you’ve ever wanted to know Dave + Joyce’s secrets to staying [happily] married for decades, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for! Today they share the good, bad and ugly of their early years together, how they learned to pray effectively about their marriage, plus a hilarious disagreement over Dave’s shirt that gave us all a good laugh. Whether you’re single, married, divorced or somewhere in between, Dave + Joyce’s stories and life lessons will give you tools to help you grow in your relationships.

Ever asked God, “Why?” So have we. In today’s episode, we talk through some of the grittiest situations we’ve walked through that brought us to the point of asking hard questions, coming face-to-face with doubt, and discovering how God’s faithfulness enables us to hold on to hope when we start to drift.

If you’ve been feeling lost or stuck when it comes to Bible study, join the girls for a gold mine of practical tips that will help you soak up God’s Word. No matter how long it’s been since you’ve had a good quiet time, Jesus is ready to meet you right where you are, and His Word can lift your heart again.

We can hardly believe it’s been two years since it all began in Ginger’s living room with the four of us laughing, crying and praying together, and we’re so grateful you’ve joined us! Over cupcakes, we’re celebrating the beauty of godly friendships, unpacking some of Joyce’s best relationship wisdom, and we just *might* be surprising each other with presents that tell a story.

Did you know that six out of the top 10 most-searched verses on BibleGateway are from Psalm 23? Listen in to hear the girls highlight their favorite verses in this powerful chapter, and discover the comfort it holds for your own life. Get ready—you’re about to appreciate this psalm on a whole new level!

If you’re sick of projecting a “socially acceptable” version of yourself, pretending things are okay when they’re not, or feeling afraid to be the real you, girl, LISTEN IN! This is the one where Joyce schools us on how to embrace ourselves + overcome one of the most restrictive problems we face: the impostor syndrome. Get ready to be real again.

Hey there, beautiful! What if I told you that you didn’t have to lose your childlike faith or sense of wonder when you grow up? Would you believe it if I said that you didn’t have to be busy yet bored out of your mind, even in a pandemic? In the midst of the challenges you’re facing, what if your life could still have meaning and beauty and fun? Well guess what—it can! Today Joyce teaches us the art of living amazed and my friends Jai, Erin and I spill the secrets and treasure the moments where we’ve regained our adventure and wonder. Tune in to hear about how Erin’s kids named a slug on their way to school, the compliment that made Megan cry, the odd spot where Jai found one of my souvenirs, and the joy we can all find as we slow down and enjoy the adventure God has placed right in our own backyard…just for us. See you there! Love, Ginger

We’ve all been through deep hurts and rejection that we never saw coming, and they usually lead us to questions like: Does Jesus actually understand what this feels like? Can I truly recover from the pain and rejection I’ve experienced?  Is there a way to become so stable that I’m not shaken when people reject me?  Any of these sound familiar? Girl, you’re in good company, and if you’re ready to know the answers, TUNE IN. Today, Ginger, Jai and Erin welcome Joyce and special guest Christine Caine to the set for a powerhouse conversation where they unpack the nitty-gritty details of how you can begin to heal from rejection.  Get ready to be encouraged, challenged, and reminded of God’s unconditional love + acceptance.  P.S. After the recording, Joyce shared that she really felt this episode was anointed to help people, so we can’t wait for you to hear it!
