76. Wicca and Paganism: Exploring Earthbound Religions and Modern Attraction With Amy Davison From Mama Bear Apologetics

What is a Wiccan? What is Wicca? What do they believe? And why is it on the rise today?
These are just a few of the questions that our guest today, Amy Davison, answers for us. Throughout the episode, Amy shares her own story of Wicca and how she was led down a different path before she met the Lord.
Amy is an Air Force vet turned apologist with Mama Bear Apologetics. She received her MA in Apologetics from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and speaks on cultural challenges to the faith, biblical sexuality, and how to raise children to be warriors in the faith. She and her husband Mike are currently raising 3 teen boys with a little girl on the way in a little house in Texas.
 
This a must listen, cultural episode that I think we should all be aware of what is going on today. Let me know your thoughts on this episode, I can’t wait for you to hear it.

72. Choosing Faith Over Fear, Worry, Or Anxiety

Hey friends!
 
Do you deal with fear?
Have you dealt with fear, worry or anxiety?
 
In the month of all things scary, this topic is one that is worth talking about again and again. But we are not just talking about halloween or the boo scared- we are also talking about actual fear. Panic. Late at night worrying, can’t sleep, anxiety, the never to do list, the afraid to do the thing because of the unknown, the medical diagnosis, the list goes on.
 
Fear manifests itself in so many different ways but today we are talking about ways to combat and overcome fear. 
We are going to chat about 4 questions to ask ourselves when fear or worry or anxiety knocks on the front door and discuss four ways to beat fear every single time.
 
When you walk around with a spirit of fear you take space away from the victorious joy-filled life God intends for you.
A spirit of fear robs you of life; fear is a distraction and an all-consuming force. But with Christ, overcoming the spirit of fear is possible!
Join Sam for a 20 minute training and leave prepared for battle.

71. From Striving To Thriving, How Vivian Cumins Broke Free From Perfectionism

Hey friends,
In this episode of the Abundant Woman Collective Podcast, Vivian Cummins shares her personal journey of battling perfectionism and striving for control. Vivian, a federal employee with over 24 years of civilian service, talks about how her need for perfection and control led to an unbalanced life filled with stress, burnout, depression, and anxiety.
In 2020, she rededicated her life to the Lord and vowed to relinquish control and submit to God's will.
However, in 2021, her life took a challenging turn when she was diagnosed with stage three melanoma. Despite the fear and difficulty of this season, Vivian claims it set her free from captivity and taught her to embrace imperfection, recognize unbalance, and trust God.
Today, Vivian not only shares her testimony with other busy women but also provides valuable lessons and helpful tips for actively seeking balance. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing when you're feeling unbalanced, being intentional about self-care, and relying on the power of Scripture and prayer to combat perfectionism.
Vivian's story serves as a powerful reminder that you're not alone in your struggles, and God is always there to provide guidance and healing. Embracing vulnerability and seeking His help can lead to a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Until Next Time,
Sam
