Leslie continues the Steadfast Heart series with a powerful look at true happiness. While the culture leads us to believe that happiness is conditional upon our circumstances, and comes from self-fulfillment, God's Word tells us differently. According to God's pattern, happiness is a decision of the will; a purposeful act of fixing our gaze upon Jesus Christ and anchoring our soul to Him. As long as our eyes are on Jesus, we can be happy at the soul-level, even if we go through difficulty. If we make our happiness conditional upon our circumstances, we will always be discontent. In this episode, Leslie walks through several "happiness myths" that we often believe, and contrasts them with the reality of God's pattern for real and lasting happiness.

She contrasts the counterfeit "emotional health" so often promoted by our culture with true emotional health as defined by the Word of God, and offers practical ways to honor God with our emotions in our daily lives and decisions.

Leslie continues her Honorable Womanhood series with a message about the unexpected blessings that come from choosing to honor our God-given authorities, especially in the area of romance and relationships. In our modern age of independence, many of us overlook the fact that God has placed these authorities in our lives — such as parents and other trusted leaders — not to make us miserable, but to bless and protect us. As Leslie shares, we can find tremendous strength by honoring our authorities and inviting them to play a key role in our lives. Honoring teammates brings the blessing of Heaven.

Leslie continues the Honorable Womanhood series with a message about what it means to entrust the pen of our life story to into God's faithful hands. During the single years, it’s tempting to both idolize and idealize our marriage hopes and dreams, thinking that we’ll finally be happy once we meet our future spouse. But this keeps us from finding the perfect satisfaction in Jesus Christ that He intends for us. The enemy often uses the fear of loneliness to cause us to rush ahead of God. But as this episode reminds us, when we cultivate a fully surrendered heart and let God have His way, we'll experience His very best for us.

Leslie continues the Honorable Womanhood with an exploration of God’s vision and purpose for marriage. We often approach marriage from a selfish vantage point, assuming that the main purpose of marriage is for our own happiness. While Christian marriage is a wonderful blessing and gift from God, His purpose for marriage goes beyond personal fulfillment. This episode explores the core principles that create a world-impacting, outward-focused marriage, as well as diving into the role that marriage should play in a woman’s life. If you want a clear, inspiring vision for godly marriage or if you have struggled to find your purpose and identity as a single woman, this episode is for you.
