Episode Details

In this summer season, the Raising Godly Girls Podcast is circling back to listener favorites from the first part of season 3. Today's episode is a replay of "Fortifying Your Girl's Faith for Life" which originally aired on January 6, 2026.

Melissa Bearden queues up fellow hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose's conversation with an endearing 'dear younger me' chat to give advice for their girl selves.

The hosts zoom in on the idea of "fortifying" a girl's faith to go the long haul—"parenting forward" to teach lessons today that will resonate far into the future and into eternity. The Raising Godly Girls Minute in this episode serves as a timeless reminder that Scripture serves as a "nightlight" so guide girls when days seem dark.

Rachael shares the fun opportunity to "start something new" through AHG Patch Programs and resources—for both non-members and AHG Members alike. She also shares a chance for listeners to grab the AHG Thinline ESV Bible as a way to launch girls into a year of reading God's Word.

Two Things to Remember:

• Parenting-Forward is not a Formula—so open your hands in prayer, submit your will and your understanding to God, and do your best to steward this parenting journey daily in the process.

• You can take joy in knowing that God will always be found faithful. Since that is His character and even in the hard seasons, He will always pursue her.

Scriptures Reference in this Episode:

• Mark 8:36-37

• Psalm 119:105
