I share practical examples, scriptures, and real-life moments that show how shifting your mindset can shift your life.Whether you're battling fear, feeling “not enough,” struggling in your marriage, or simply wanting to grow deeper in your walk with God, this episode will remind you of the authority you have as a daughter of God to take every thought captive and speak life over your home, your future, and your heart.Listen in and be encouraged; your mind is worth renewing.Enjoyed This Episode or Have Feedback?

In this episode of The Praying Wife Podcast, Corain dives into what it truly means to serve God - not just in church, but in every area of our lives.
