Thoughts on memorizing Scripture on your own

Have you been struggling with what you're thinking about, how you're acting, or how you're feeling? While memorizing Scripture won't cure any of this, it provides you with on demand access to Scripture--from your mind!! Join me as I talk with you in my local library (that's where the unusual background noise is coming from) about my thoughts and experience with memorizing Scripture! This episode is short, sweet, and still full of Scripture! Scripture used: 2 Timothy 2:15 Psalm 119:11 Romans 14:7-9 John 3:16 Philippians 4:8 Hebrews 4:12 say hi here: •Instagram⁠⁠ (⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/thechristiangirlstea/) ⁠⁠ • Email: ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠Anchor Voice Message⁠⁠ (⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/the-christian-girls-tea/message) If you can, please leave a review of the podcast!

I'm a sinner, and so are you. So what do we do when we mess up? Confess, be humble, and repent! Scripture used: 1 John 1:8-10 Romans 3:23-26 Ephesians 2:8-9 2 Corinthians 12:9 "But if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness."

Hi sisters! It has been a very busy start to my year, and I've been struggling with time management, so I've been prioritizing my schoolwork. BUT WE'RE BACK! Let's talk about what it looks like to work hard at school, and why we should as Christian girls. This episode is short, sweet, and can fit between classes or on your lunch break sometime this week. Listen when you get a chance, but remember to prioritize your homework!! Scripture referenced: Colossians 3:23 Romans 12:11 1 Corinthians 4:12 2 Corinthians 12:9 REMEMBER THIS: "Each time He said, 'My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.' So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me." When you mess up, remember that Christ can work through you! Don't be discouraged. Dust yourself off, and ask God for help. say hi here: • ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ (⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/thechristiangirlstea/⁠⁠) • Email: ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠Anchor Voice Message⁠⁠ (⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/the-christian-girls-tea/message) If you can, please leave a review of the podcast!

THERE'S A LONG-LOST EPISODE OF THE CHRISTIAN GIRL'S TEA PODCAST?! ....yes. Yes, there is. I recorded this episode some months back, completely forgot about it, and rediscovered it a week or so ago. God's timing is incredible because I needed to be reminded of all of this, too. I'm excited to share this hidden gem with you. Ever wonder the backstory of TCGT, my story, and what a Christian girl really is? I'm excited to share all of that through this hidden gem of an episode. I pray that you (if you haven't already) understand the call and accept it. It's not without difficulty, but eternally, it's the most important decision you will ever make. Happy listening. ;) SCRIPTURE USED: Galatians 5:19-26 Ephesians 6:10-17 Romans 10:9-10 OH YEAH. I just released a NEW SONG called "Praise". Want to hear it (AND the music video I released for it)?
