What happens when the rising waters of life—whether a devastating health diagnosis, financial ruin, or the slow erosion of your reputation—leave you feeling completely trapped and sinking into the mire?
Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for a deeply comforting and raw devotional on Psalm 69, a powerful chapter that meets us in our lowest moments of panic and anxiety, while pointing us toward the ultimate hope of our Redeemer.
Drawing from a vivid, real-life illustration of Alaska’s treacherous glacial mudflats and rapidly rushing bore tides, Jaime paints an unforgettable picture of what David meant when he cried out that the waters had risen to his neck with no foothold in sight. She explores how David’s desperate pleas give us permission to bring our own untidy, raw, and seemingly hopeless emotions directly to the throne of grace, reminding us that authenticity and trust go hand in hand when we are straining our eyes waiting for God to move.
Along the way, we see how David’s deep distress foreshadows the suffering of Jesus on the cross, and Jaime thoughtfully unpacks the challenging concept of "imprecatory prayers"—those jarring verses where David calls down God’s wrath upon his adversaries. Through the lens of New Testament grace, she offers wise, practical perspective on shifting our focus away from flesh-and-blood enemies to recognize the true spiritual battle against the principalities of darkness.
Come ready to lay down your deepest anxieties—the exhausting false accusations, the overwhelming debts, and the situations threatening to swallow you whole. Let this episode remind you that our Savior is bigger than the fiercest tides working against you. Because He is a God who hears the needy, who lifts our feet out of the suffocating silt to set us securely on high, and whose redeeming power can turn even the very seas that threatened to drown us into a chorus of praise for His glory.

How do you redeem screen time and turn everyday media into a meaningful tool for your family’s spiritual growth?
This week, Jess Wolstenholm—VP of Education and Research at Minno and veteran of 25 years in children’s ministry—joins Jaime for an encouraging conversation on helping kids and families experience Jesus every day, both on and off screens.
In this episode, Jess shares the heart behind Minno, a Christian children’s streaming platform featuring everything from beloved classics like VeggieTales to high-quality originals crafted by creatives from Disney and Pixar, including Young David, God’s Greenhouse, and Micah.
Jess also dives into her work as the executive producer and editor of the Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids animated series and storybook Bibles, including their newest release, The Laugh and Grow Bible for Kids: Jesus Stories. She explains how to teach foundational theology to young, concrete thinkers without watering down the truth of the Gospel.
Jess also tackles the intimidation many parents and grandparents feel when trying to disciple their kids at home, offering a refreshing look at why modeling "intellectual humility" and curiosity is far more powerful than having all the answers. You’ll walk away with practical, pressure-free ideas for balancing your family’s "media diet" and using simple, everyday moments as a springboard for organic conversations about faith.

Is there a point in praying for world peace if the Bible says things have to get worse first?
In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a complex theological question that has puzzled believers for generations: Should we pray for world peace, or should we pray to hasten Christ’s return?
When end-times prophecies point toward tribulation, war, and global turmoil, it can be easy to grow passive in our prayers—or worse, assume that global suffering is necessary to speed up Jesus’ second coming. The co-hosts explore how popular culture and competing eschatological views can shape our prayer lives, and why trying to orchestrate the fulfillment of prophecy can lead our hearts and motivations astray.
Through honest reflection, biblical wisdom, and a memorable story about Alaskan fireweed, Jaime and Alana discuss the tension between longing for heaven and loving a hurting world right now. Alana shares how the Lord’s Prayer guides us to ask for God's mercy and peace in the midst of suffering rather than wishing for hardship, while Jaime reflects on viewing the timing of Christ’s return through the lens of God’s grace—and why we should never place our ultimate hope in secular or political systems to manufacture a human-led utopia.
Together, they encourage us to fix our eyes on Jesus and remain faithful to the work He has given us today, rather than getting lost in the weeds of end-times timelines. Whether you’re fascinated by the book of Revelation, feeling overwhelmed by global conflict, or simply wondering how to pray for a broken world, we hope this episode brings you clarity, peace, and a renewed heart to be salt and light until He comes again.

Why does God seem to answer other people’s prayers, but not yours?
In this Coffee Break episode, Jaime and Alana tackle a deeply personal question that can leave us feeling overlooked, discouraged, and afraid to ask what’s really on our hearts: Does God love me less?
When someone else celebrates a miraculous healing or shares another incredible answer to prayer, it can be difficult to rejoice while you’re still waiting—or grieving an outcome you never wanted. The co-hosts explore how hearing only the highlights of other people’s prayer lives can shape our perception of God’s work, and how comparison can cause us to overlook the ways He is already providing for us.
Through personal stories of answered prayer and painful loss, Jaime and Alana discuss the temptation to blame God, ourselves, or others when our prayers have different outcomes. Jaime shares how keeping a prayer journal helped her recognize God’s work in her life, while Alana offers a simple practice for building gratitude into everyday moments. They also explore how to share testimonies with compassion, celebrating what God has done without suggesting that a particular outcome is guaranteed if we just pray hard enough.
Together, they encourage us to bring our jealousy, disappointment, and unanswered questions honestly to God, while making room for both gratitude and grief. Whether you’re struggling to celebrate someone else’s blessing, wondering why your own prayers seem unanswered, or looking for a more sensitive way to share your story, we hope this episode brings you comfort, fresh perspective, and reassurance that a different answer to prayer does not mean you are less loved.
