Friend, you are in the right place. This podcast will help you understand your Bible, apply verses to your life, and become more confident with the who, where, and why in scripture
Hi, I’m Angie. I’m a pastor and Bible teacher. For years, even though I knew God loved me, I still dealt with defeating doubts about my value and purpose. It wasn’t until I began deeply studying the Bible that I experienced a heart transformation that allowed me to recognize the lies of the enemy that kept me stuck in shame and defeat. Studying scripture allowed me to stand firm on God’s promises that offer peace, joy, hope, and rest. I created a Step By Step Bible study method that teaches you to find life application in one word of scripture, and I will share it with you in these episodes.
If you crave a deep dive into scripture…
Bible study tools you can trust…
And a method designed to equip you to study with confidence…
Then, pull up a seat at our table, open your heart, and prepare to hear God speak directly to you.

329 | Shield of Faith: Speaking God’s Truth to the Enemy’s Lies (Ephesians 6:16)
Ephesians 6:16 urges us to take up the shield of faith to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. But what does it really mean to raise that shield in the heat of spiritual battle?
In this week’s episode, Angie and Susie dive deep into what faith looks like when fear, insecurity, and doubt come rushing in. They unpack how our trust in God becomes a powerful defense against the enemy’s lies, and why even mustard-seed faith is more than enough to hold our ground.
Through word studies, commentary insights, and honest conversation, we explore how faith isn’t just belief, it’s surrender. And when we choose to believe God is who He says He is, we don’t just deflect the enemy’s attacks… we extinguish them.
Ephesians 6:16 (NIV)
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
