Dear Christian Black Girl

What happens when adult friendships start looking different than you expected? And what if the friends you have today aren't the only friends you'll have in this season of your life?In this episode of Dear Christian Black Girl, I'm joined by Tiffany Favors for an honest conversation about adult friendship, sisterhood, and learning to make room for new relationships while navigating the changes in existing ones.We're talking about how friendship evolves as life gets busier, the difference between capability and capacity, why honest communication matters, and what it looks like to maintain meaningful friendships without expecting people to show up in ways they simply don't have the capacity for.And yes, we're also talking about the unexpected ways friendships develop, because sometimes you aren't even looking for new friends when they show up. 😂This episode was produced by Charity Warari @_madebycwwFollow Us: @dearchristianblackgirlSubscribe: www.dearchristianblackgirl.comEmail: [email protected]

What do you do when you still love God, still trust Him, but you genuinely don’t have the words to pray?Sometimes life gets heavy enough that you don’t intentionally stop seeking God. You’re just tired, frustrated, overwhelmed, and somewhere along the way… you get quiet.In this episode of Dear Christian Black Girl, we’re talking about what it looks like to go back to the Father when all you have are deep breaths, tears, and a simple, “God, I’m tired.”We’re also talking about fear, frustration and fatigue, what happens when the problem gets more of our attention than God does, and why being used by God isn’t the same thing as personally spending time with Him.Scripture References: Romans 8:26; Matthew 6:26–33Follow Us: @dearchristianblackgirlSubscribe: www.dearchristianblackgirl.comEmail: [email protected]

Sometimes being the strong one means everybody knows they can call you. You’re the one who stays calm, figures out what needs to happen, prays for everybody else, and somehow keeps things moving. But just because you can carry a lot doesn’t mean it isn’t heavy.In this episode, we’re talking directly to the strong friends, and not just in friendship. Maybe you’re the person your family depends on, the mama keeping everything together, the intercessor everybody sends their prayer requests to, or simply the person everybody trusts to show up when something goes wrong.Your ability to function doesn’t mean you’re fine. Your strength doesn’t eliminate your need for prayer, support, encouragement, and people who know how to show up for you too. And strong friend, part of receiving that care means allowing safe people to see when you actually need it.Follow Us:@dearchristianblackgirlSubscribe to Our Mailing List:www.dearchristianblackgirl.comSend Us an Email:[email protected]

Sometimes life changes the plan, and just because you could find a way to keep everything moving doesn’t mean you should.In this episode, we’re talking about what it looks like to actually let something wait. Not because we’re irresponsible. Not because we don’t care. But because sometimes wisdom requires us to recognize what deserves our attention right now and allow everything else to pause.We’re getting into the pressure we put on ourselves to always keep going, what happens when commitment starts looking more like consumption, and why prioritizing one thing sometimes means allowing something else to actually wait.You don’t need an emergency to justify taking a break. You don’t have to reach your breaking point before you’re allowed to stop. And you can be committed to what God gave you without being consumed by it.Sometimes everything doesn’t have to keep moving just because technically it can.Follow Us:@dearchristianblackgirlSubscribe to Our Mailing List:www.dearchristianblackgirl.comSend Us an Email:[email protected]

Somewhere along the way, being busy became a badge of honor. We started treating packed schedules, constant productivity, and exhaustion like proof that we’re doing something right. And Christian culture isn’t immune to it. Sometimes we just put spiritual language around our hustle and call it stewardship.In this episode, we’re talking about the difference between productivity and fruitfulness, why we feel the need to always be doing something, and what might really be underneath our inability to stop.Because sometimes being busy isn’t about responsibility. Sometimes it’s avoidance.We’re also talking about building systems that actually create margin, resisting the urge to fill every available moment with more work, and learning to recognize when you’ve done enough.Because sis, being exhausted is not automatically evidence that you’re being faithful.Follow Us:@dearchristianblackgirlSubscribe to Our Mailing List:www.dearchristianblackgirl.comSend Us an Email:[email protected]

Sometimes God will tell you what to leave before He tells you where you’re going.When I left my former church last December, I knew God was leading me out of that season, but I had no idea what came next. I didn’t have another church lined up, and for a while, I struggled with feeling like I didn’t belong anywhere.But looking back over these past nine months, I can see how God was caring for me, creating community, and making room for me even when I couldn’t see what He was building.In this episode of Dear Christian Black Girl, we’re talking about obedience when you don’t have all the instructions, trusting God through uncertain seasons, and learning not to confuse transition with abandonment.You may not know what’s next, but the Father hasn’t lost track of you. 🖤If this episode blesses you, make sure you share it with another sis who may need this reminder 🤍SUBSCRIBE TO OUR MAILING LIST🌐 dearchristianblackgirl.comBE A GUEST🌐 dearchristianblackgirl.com/contactCONNECT WITH US📲 @dearchristianblackgirl

A platform isn’t a reward. It’s a responsibility.Whether God has entrusted you with five people or five million, influence comes with weight. Stewarding it well means being willing to let God examine not only what we say publicly, but also our motives, our integrity, and the posture of our hearts.In this episode of Dear Christian Black Girl, we’re talking about what it means to have clean hands and a pure heart, why greater influence requires greater accountability, and how stewardship sometimes requires us to make uncomfortable decisions.And friend, this conversation is not about perfection. We are all going to get it wrong sometimes. The question is what happens when correction comes. Are we willing to repent? Are we willing to make it right? Are we willing to let God search our hearts, even when what He shows us is uncomfortable?Because when God entrusts us with influence, how we carry it matters. 🖤

What if the thing you’ve been calling heavy… is actually just weighty?There’s a difference between something that is crushing you and something that carries the weight of responsibility—and learning that difference changed the way I understood what God had given me to carry.DCBG LIVE taught me that the assignment itself wasn’t necessarily heavy. Sometimes, it was everything I added to it: expectations, pressure, fear, and the responsibility I hadn’t yet learned how to carry well.In Episode 68 of Dear Christian Black Girl, we’re talking about the difference between heavy and weighty, how to recognize what God has actually given you to carry, and why feeling the weight of an assignment doesn’t automatically mean something is wrong.Because maybe God isn’t asking you to put the assignment down.If this episode blesses you, make sure you share it with another sis who may need this reminder 🖤SUBSCRIBE TO OUR MAILING LIST: dearchristianblackgirl.comBE A GUEST: dearchristianblackgirl.com/contactCONNECT WITH US: @dearchristianblackgirl

There was a moment during worship at a recent Prophetic Pop-Up where the presence of God became so heavy that all I could do was get on my knees before Him. And when I found out they got me on video I was embarassed 😂But after sitting with it, I realized something:Why would I be ashamed to bow before a holy God?In this episode of Dear Christian Black Girl, we’re having an honest conversation about prayer, reverence, distraction, intimacy with God, and what happens when we slowly lose our hunger for His presence.We talk about:🤍 The difference between Christian content and true intimacy with God🤍 Why many believers are spiritually exhausted🤍 How social media and performance culture can affect worship🤍 What it means to return to a posture of prayer🤍 Why everybody’s expression of reverence may look different🤍 God calling His daughters back to intimacy and surrenderThis episode is not about condemnation or emotional performance.

What does purity really mean in today’s culture? Is it just about relationships and singleness… or does it go deeper than that?In this episode of Dear Christian Black Girl, Geri sits down with Shawante Latrece from Women of Purity for an honest conversation about purity from a biblical perspective. Together, they unpack how purity isn’t just a conversation for single women, but something that matters in marriage, worship, leadership, and our everyday walk with God. We also dive into the dangers of cancel culture, the importance of extending grace the way Christ does, and what it truly means to worship God with a pure heart in a world full of performance, opinions, and pressure.This conversation is honest, challenging, healing, and deeply needed.📍 DCBG LIVE is happening June 13 in Atlanta!Join us for an in-person worship + podcast experience centered around real conversations, real sisterhood, and a real encounter with God.🎟️ Grab your tickets: www.dearchristianblackgirl.com📬 SUBSCRIBE TO OUR MAILING LISTdearchristianblackgirl.com🎙️ BE A GUESTdearchristianblackgirl.com/contact📲 CONNECT WITH USInstagram + TikTok: @dearchristianblackgirl
