In today’s culture, appearance matters more than ever. From social media to fashion to aging, Christian women are constantly told what to look like, what to buy, and who to become. But what does Scripture actually say about beauty — and how does our identity in Christ reshape the way we see ourselves?
In this episode, Ellen talks with Ashleigh Brophy, creative director of Preserve Magazine, about:
• How to break free from cultural beauty standards
 • What identity in Christ means for everyday confidence and worth
 • How creativity, motherhood, and calling flow from a secure foundation in Christ
 • How to renew your mind about appearance and comparison
 • Why biblical beauty begins with rest in your identity in Christ, not striving
True beauty isn’t something you achieve — it’s something that flows from a heart anchored in your identity in Christ.

Dating as a Christian can be exhausting— especially when you’ve done everything “right,” but are still waiting on prayers that seem to have gone unheard. 
Christian Bevere joins Ellen to talk honestly about dating as a Christian with prayer, peace, and discernment. They explore how to wait actively without idolizing marriage, how prayer shapes you in singleness, and how to seek God’s will in relationships without fear or striving.
Whether you’re feeling hopeful, weary, or somewhere in between, this episode will remind you that your life isn’t on hold, and God is still at work.

As counterintuitive as it seems, it's the small, inconvenient choices that shape our faith over time. Ellen and Cynthia explore how a steady, ordinary walk with God forms our obedience, emotions, and love for others—even when no one is watching. Cynthia shares powerful analogies, relatable stories, and biblical encouragement to help you see how God is actively at work in your everyday life.
