Episode 68: Heavy vs. Weighty

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

In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to be radically obedient to God.Not halfway.Not when it’s convenient.Not when it makes sense.But the kind of obedience that costs you something.We’re unpacking the truth that obedience isn’t partial compliance… and it’s definitely not something we can delay until we feel ready. Because the reality is, delayed obedience is still disobedience.Through 1 Samuel 15:22, we’re reminded that God doesn’t just want our sacrifices, our good intentions, or our effort… He wants our obedience.And if we’re honest, that kind of surrender can feel uncomfortable.Because radical obedience will challenge your comfort.It will go against culture.It will stretch you beyond fear.It may even require you to release relationships, timelines, and personal plans you thought were set in stone.But on the other side of that obedience… is alignment, purpose, and the will of God for your life.So the question is… are you willing to obey God, even when it costs you? 🤍If this episode speaks to you, share it with a friend who’s navigating obedience in this season 🖤🎟️ DCBG LIVE EXPERIENCECome hang out with us in person on June 13 in Atlanta!

And if I’m being real, it hasn’t always been easy. But over the past few weeks, He’s been so intentional—sending the right people at the right time to encourage me, pour into me, and remind me of what He said. The kind of moments that only make sense between me and Him.We talk about what it looks like to be in that tension… where your reality doesn’t fully match the promise yet.And we also get into this truth: doubt isn’t something that just happens to us. It’s a choice. And if it’s a choice, that means we don’t have to choose it.We can choose faith.We can choose to believe what God said.We can choose to declare His promises—even when it feels uncomfortable.If you’ve been in a season where it’s been easier to doubt than to believe, this conversation is for you.💌 SUBSCRIBE TO OUR MAILING LIST https://dearchristianblackgirl.com🎟️ JOIN US LIVEWe’re hosting our first Dear Christian Black Girl Live Experience on June 13 in Atlanta.

But with answered prayers often comes something else: heart work.We talk about what it really means to come boldly to the throne of grace, how declaring God’s Word back to Him strengthens our faith, and how God sometimes begins excavating the hidden things in our hearts so He can replace them with His truth.If you’ve ever prayed for something and wondered what happens when God actually says yes, this conversation is for you.📬 SUBSCRIBE TO OUR MAILING LIST:dearchristianblackgirl.com🎙 BE A GUEST:dearchristianblackgirl.com/contact📱 CONNECT WITH US:@dearchristianblackgirl

In this special year-in-review episode, Geri and Tiffany reflect on the lessons God taught them throughout 2025—lessons that stretched their faith, challenged their obedience, and reshaped how they view influence and identity as Christian entrepreneurs.They talk candidly about what it looks like to obey God when His instructions don’t make sense, to trust Him when life feels chaotic, and to anchor their confidence in who God says they are—not in numbers, platforms, or outcomes. This conversation is especially for the Christian woman building something God-led in a culture that often prioritizes visibility over obedience.Geri and Tiffany also dive into the responsibility that comes with influence, particularly for Christian content creators. They discuss the importance of creating content God’s way, stewarding platforms with integrity, and being willing to walk away from opportunities, partnerships, or paths that don’t align with God’s vision—even when it costs you.If 2025 required you to let go, trust deeper, show up differently, or realign your business and content with God’s voice, this episode will remind you that obedience is never wasted and alignment is always worth it.This conversation is encouragement for the woman who’s building, believing, and becoming—God’s way.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR MAILING LISTStay connected with Dear Christian Black Girl and never miss an update:👉🏾 dearchristianblackgirl.comBE A GUESTInterested in joining the conversation?👉🏾 dearchristianblackgirl.com/contactCONNECT WITH US👉🏾Follow us on all social media: @dearchristianblackgirl
