In this episode, Lyncon, with Gather The Gals explores the unwavering love of Jesus, emphasizing the importance of focusing on spiritual battles rather than worldly distractions. The discussion highlights the power of faith, the urgency of repentance, and the call to live purposefully in alignment with God's will.

We talk on: Jesus, faith, repentance, spiritual battle, purpose

Gods love will never fail or change. Keep your eyes on Jesus, not the world. Social media distracts us from God's purpose. God's patience leads to repentance. We are created in God's image. Fight spiritual battles, not flesh and blood. Unity over division in Christ. The power of Christ lives in you. You are born with purpose. Repent and follow Jesus today.

Life is but a vapor. Faith in Jesus saves. Our life is a testimony. Be bold in your faith. Jesus meets you where you're at. Confess and believe to be saved. Live this life for Jesus Christ. The enemy seeks to separate. Live boldly, not in shame.

Are you a tired mama craving real connection?
If you've ever whispered, “I just wish I had a friend who really gets me,” you're not alone. Between laundry piles, school pickups, and trying to get 3 minutes alone with Jesus, finding community as a mom can feel impossible.

In today’s episode of Gather the Gals, we’re diving into the power of God-designed community, the kind that actually prays for you, shows up for you, and cheers you on toward your God given dreams.

Whether you're in a new season, new town, or just feel stuck in the same old routine, we’re reminding you that you were never meant to do life alone.

In This Episode, We Talk About:

  • Why friendship feels harder in motherhood (and how to shift that)

  • What real community looks like (hint: it’s not perfect)

  • Bible verses that remind us God created us for connection

  • How to pray for and find your people

  • Encouragement to show up, even when it’s hard

Key Bible Verses on Community:

  • Hebrews 10:24–25“Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds…”

  • Ecclesiastes 4:9–10“Two are better than one… If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.”

  • Galatians 6:2“Carry each other’s burdens…”

  • Proverbs 27:17“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”

  • Romans 12:10“Be devoted to one another in love.”

If You're Longing for Community That:

✅ Loves Jesus
✅ Isn’t afraid of the messy middle
✅ Prays with you and for you
✅ Calls you higher
✅ Wants to study God’s Word with you

Then sister, this episode, and Gather the Gals podcast and ministry was made just for you.

You’re not the only mom who feels lonely, but you don’t have to stay there. Let’s talk about how to build meaningful, biblical friendships even in the busiest seasons.

If your heart feels heavy, if your thoughts are racing, if you’ve been worrying about tomorrow before today even started, this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, I’m speaking to the woman who is tired of being anxious. The one who’s holding it all together, but barely. The one who desperately needs peace.

Together, we’ll talk about:

  • How anxiety distorts truth, and what God’s Word says instead
  • Why you are not alone in what you’re feeling
  • The importance of slowing down and giving it to Jesus
  • A prayer you can speak when anxiety creeps in
  • Scripture reminders to carry with you when the worry won’t let up

You are so loved. You are not forgotten. And peace is still possible, even now.

Scripture to hold close:

  • Philippians 4:6–7
  • 1 Peter 5:7
  • Isaiah 41:10
  • Matthew 6:34
  • John 14:27
