Being a Christian Pro-Athlete with Audrey Shin

However, Audrey Shin is living proof that it's not impossible to be a Christian and pursue a relationship with Jesus and be a dedicated, disciplined athlete. Audrey is a Team USA Figure Skater in the partner discipline, and she joins us to talk about her testimony, her sport, and how she's not just an athlete; she's a Christian, too.You can follow Audrey on Instagram at @audreyshin.skater to keep up with her competitions.

Hey, sister! I left you a message. Hope it encourages you and reminds you that you're loved, you were made on purpose, and God's approval of you is far more important than the approval of others.(I recorded it like a voicemail--if you want to, hold your phone up to your ear like you're listening to a phone call...from me to you. <3)

A big question we all ask ourselves: WHAT IS MY PURPOSE? Rachel Sinclair is just like the rest of us and asks herself this question, too--and answers it in her devotional book, "Find Your Purpose: A 20-day adventure into the abundant life God has for you, even when it's different than what you expect!", which you can purchase on Amazon through the link below. Join us as we talk her journey to writing, where she's found her purpose, and all about "Find Your Purpose"! (I read the book MYSELF and went through the devotional aspects, too--LOVED IT!!)Connect with Rachel HERE! Purchase "Find Your Purpose" on Amazon!

Let's move from prayer as our last resort to our first response! Join me as we discuss making your own prayer journal (hence the "DIY"), the purpose behind having a prayer journal, and how I've been trying to use my prayer journal to work with my crazy, distracted brain. Praying this blesses you and helps you grow your relationship with Jesus!Scripture used:Hebrews 4:14-16Ephesians 6:18Matthew 6:9-13John 17say hi here:email: [email protected]: ⁠The Christian Girl's Tea Substack⁠ (including FREE GROUP CHAT!)Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@thechristiangirlstea⁠⁠⁠I love you, sister! <3

Over the past year, I've grown in my faith, had both good and bad experiences, and LEARNED A LOT! I want to share a lot of the most important lessons I learned with you so that, Lord willing, you can learn these lessons now, from me, so that you can move forward and know even more than I did when I first started. This episode is for girls of all ages (although some mature content is mentioned), whether you're in college, about to start, or it's far off in the future. Grab your notebook and a cup of tea, and let's talk about God's faithfulness in helping me (and those I've met) grow over the past year.Scripture mentioned:Psalm 4:4Matthew 28:20Philippians 4:131 Timothy 4:12Episodes mentioned:INVESTING IN YOUNGER CHRISTIAN GIRLS (taking the time and accepting the command)THE GOSPEL (the foundation of Christianity)Other things mentioned:Versify, an AWESOME app my friends and I use to memorize ScriptureAmy Carmichael, a missionary to India who never married or had children, yet was still used by God to bless many people and save many children from slaverysay hi here:email: [email protected]: The Christian Girl's Tea Substack (including FREE GROUP CHAT!)Instagram: ⁠⁠@thechristiangirlstea⁠⁠I love you, sister! <3

One of the best gifts that the Lord gave me through starting The Christian Girl's Tea Podcast was a friendship with the incredible Shira Rodriguez. She's simply an amazing human, and an even better friend, and I love her so much.BUT that's not all she is! She is now *drumroll please* a PUBLISHED author, with her short story "The Lost History of Lavender Lockbourne" being featured in Wild Blue Wonder Press' anthology, Novelists in November. (Spoiler: I definitely cried at one point of the story...) It was so refreshing to read a genuinely good story, with genuinely good themes and messages that didn't leave me feeling...gross after reading it. She's so cool.Anyway, join us as we discuss what it looks like to be a writer who loves Jesus and shares it both directly and indirectly, with a similar mindset to that of Romans 1:16...Connect with Shira through: Her website Her Instagram Her YouTube ChannelPurchase Novelists in NovemberHERE!say hi here:email: [email protected]: https://thechristiangirlstea.substack.com/Instagram: ⁠@thechristiangirlstea⁠Chat soon!

I'm bring back that lil' "thoughts on..." series from last season to talk about one of my new favorite subjects: THE OLD TESTAMENT!! For so long, I convinced myself it was boring or not applicable to my life--SISTER, I WAS SO WRONG. The Old Testament constantly points to God's true character and to who Jesus is, which is exactly the reason we should be reading the Bible in the first place. *totally geeking out about this episode* Let me know if you either end up reading a book of the OT or want to read the whole OT along with me this year (or the next two years or five years or whatever...as long as you do it!!). say hi here: email: [email protected] Substack: https://thechristiangirlstea.substack.com/ Instagram: @thechristiangirlstea KNOW GOD.

I've missed talking to you!! Thank you for sticking around while I've been transitioning from high school to college; definitely been a big change in my life. I want you to view this episode like a conversation between friends over a cup of tea (or water, or coffee, etc.) who haven't talked in a while. I'm giving you an update on my life, especially the spiritual side, and giving you some sisterly advice about how to approach reading the Bible on your own. In all honesty? This is how I would talk to a sister. I pray this encourages you, and reminds you that you aren't alone in your faith! I mention Matthew 6:33 and Philippians 4:13 pretty briefly, and then talk about memorizing Psalm 4. You should totally take a second and read those on your own. I recommend reading Psalm 4 in the New Living Translation (NLT), as that's the translation the Lord used to comfort and convict me in a season of discouragement. say hi here: • ⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ • Email: ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠Comment using Spotify's commenting feature on podcasts!
