In this episode of The Ever Be Podcast, I am thrilled to welcome Emily Wilson, a passionate advocate for women’s spiritual journeys and understanding the feminine heart. Together, we delve into exactly how Satan is trying to attack women in today’s culture, and what we as women can do to claim our identity and live in the fullness God created us for.

Meeting Emily Wilson

Emily Wilson is a beloved figure in women’s ministry. From her beginnings as a high school teacher at an all-girls school to become a guiding force in faith communities across the world, her heart’s mission is to help women understand how deeply loved they are by God. Our discussion opens with Emily sharing her incredible journey and the insights she has gained from walking alongside women for over 14 years.

Unveiling the Spiritual Battle

Our conversation takes a profound turn as we examine Emily’s book, “Sincerely, Stone Heart.” Inspired by C.S. Lewis’s “The Screwtape Letters,” her book explores how demons might communicate about targeting women specifically. Emily shares that her writing process was a revelation, allowing her to see more clearly than ever how the spiritual battle is at play in women’s lives, aiming to discourage and silence us.

Lies Women Believe

Emily and I explore some of the most subtle yet damaging lies that the enemy whispers to women today. A recurring theme is the pervasive belief that one’s purpose is lacking compared to others, fueled by the constant comparisons made through social media. Emily emphasizes the necessity of recognizing these lies and reclaiming our unique place as reflections of God’s glory.

Practical Steps to Embrace Freedom

Of paramount importance is learning to silence the noise and distractions that prevent us from hearing God’s voice. Emily shares practical advice on prioritizing peace and quiet in our lives, helping us tune into God’s loving voice. This often means challenging the false truths we’ve been led to believe and daring to rest in our true identity as beloved daughters of God.

Finding Freedom

Emily stands firm in her message that God created us for freedom—not just as a catchy slogan, but as a transformative reality of living a life unburdened by fear and lies. Living as free women sets an example for others, creating ripples of change far beyond our immediate circles.

Join the Conversation

I encourage you to take part in this transformative discussion and explore Emily’s book for deeper insights. The journey of understanding and embracing our true identity is a continuous one, but with conversations like this, we hope to provide encouragement and strength.
