Ep 338: Left Behind or Led Astray? Rethinking the Rapture with Todd Hampson
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
In this episode, I sit down with Todd Hampson to talk about one of the most debated topics in Christian theology—the rapture. What does the Bible actually teach? How has culture distorted it? And why does it matter for how we live today? Todd brings clarity, biblical insight, and a grounded perspective to a topic that is often misunderstood and sensationalized.

Ep 337: Morality Across Cultures: Who Decides What’s Right?
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
In this episode of the Her Faith Inspires Podcast, we’re tackling a question that hits at the heart of culture, morality, and truth: Why do different cultures disagree on what’s right and wrong? This conversation was sparked by a text from my younger brother—who loves history, follows culture closely, and always asks thoughtful questions. He pointed out how standards have shifted over time: what was once considered immodest, inappropriate, or even sinful in one generation or culture may be completely acceptable in another. From modesty and language to gender roles and societal norms, it...

Ep 336: Life After Life: What Happens When We Die? | with Philip DeCourcy
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
What happens when we die—and are we truly prepared for what comes next? In this episode, I sit down with Pastor Philip DeCourcy to discuss his book Life After Life and the biblical reality of eternity. Together, we explore what Scripture teaches about heaven, hell, judgment, and the eternal destiny of every soul. In a culture that avoids the topic of death or redefines it through feelings and speculation, this conversation brings clarity, truth, and urgency. Philip helps us think biblically about what lies beyond this life and why what we believe now matters forever. We also talk about...

Ep 335: The Mirror We Choose: Truth, Flattery, and the Word of God
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
In this episode, Shanda shares a personal (and relatable!) story from a fitting room that sparked a deeper spiritual question: Do we really want to see ourselves as we are, or as we wish we were? Just like mirrors with different lighting can change how we look, we often try to “adjust the lighting” in our spiritual lives—surrounding ourselves with messages, influences, and even interpretations of Scripture that make us feel better rather than show us the truth. But God’s Word doesn’t flatter. It reveals. Drawing from the book of James, we explore how Scripture acts as a mirror,...

Ep 333: The Problem with Modern Worship (And What Scripture Says)
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
What is worship—really? For many Christians, worship has been reduced to music on a Sunday morning. But is that what the Bible actually teaches? In this episode, we take a deeper look at what Scripture says about worship and how a biblical worldview shapes our understanding of it. From Genesis to Revelation, we trace the theme of worship and idolatry to see what God truly requires of His people. We also examine how modern worship culture can sometimes reveal something deeper—subtle forms of self-focus that shift attention away from God. In this episode, we discuss: What worship is (and...

Ep 332: The Mercy of Jesus: What Six Women in the Bible Teach Us Today with Tamar Miller
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
Throughout the Gospels, we see Jesus encountering women from very different backgrounds—some broken by sin, some weighed down by shame, and others overlooked by society. Yet in every encounter, Jesus responds not with condemnation, but with truth, compassion, and life-changing mercy. Tamar walks us through the stories of six women who met Jesus face to face and experienced His transforming grace. Together we discuss what these encounters reveal about the heart of Christ, the power of repentance, and how Jesus still meets us today in our own places of need. If you’ve ever wondered whether...

Ep 331: Insecurity and the Problem of Self: Lessons from Scripture
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
Insecurity is something many women wrestle with, but what does Scripture actually say about it? In this episode, we explore how insecurity often reveals a deeper issue of self-focus. Looking at examples from the Bible, we’ll see how people responded when God called them and how God answered their excuses. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt or feeling inadequate, this conversation will help reframe insecurity through a biblical lens and point you back to where your focus belongs.

What are the red flags of a shallow women’s ministry? What role should spiritually mature women play? And how do we move women from consuming content to becoming committed disciple-makers?

Ep 329: Are We Reading the Bible for Therapy Instead of Theology?
Her Faith Inspires Podcast
Today we explore a growing trend among Christian women: approaching the Bible more for emotional comfort than for the knowledge of God. Why do we gravitate toward the “easier” books of the Bible and avoid the ones that require deeper study? Has church quietly become a place for therapy rather than transformation? And how has a worldview known as Moralistic Therapeutic Deism shaped what many Christians expect from faith? Shanda shares a personal lesson that exposed this mindset in her own life and offers a biblical solution—one that doesn’t dismiss emotional healing, but roots it in...
info_outlineIn today’s episode, I sit down with Dr. Leonard to talk about his book Seekers in the Hands of an Elusive God—a deep and honest look at why God can sometimes feel distant and how that shapes our search for truth. We explore the tension between doubt and belief, what it means to genuinely seek God, and how Scripture meets us in seasons when God feels hidden.
If you’ve ever wrestled with unanswered questions, spiritual confusion, or the silence of God, this conversation will strengthen your faith and give you renewed confidence in the God who promises to be found by those who seek Him.
