Wow! I am a man and this episode was one of the most valuable pieces of content I’ve listened to in my life. The husband belongs to the wife and the wife to the husband, they are One Flesh, One Soul, One Spirit, with distinct roles that complement the nature of Christ. Thank you so much Madi, and Lisa!
I’m not entirely sure how to leave reviews, but Stay True Podcast has been such a blessing! Madi brings the truth every time and it’s encouraging to see how God has used her and this podcast to speak truth. Each episode always feels to perfectly coincide with different events in my life and call me out to call me higher! I pray God would continue to use this podcast to touch the lives of many. Thanks to Madi for being so vulnerable and open about her life and walk with God, it’s comforting to be reminded my struggles are not unique to me and be pointed back to God’s love and the race set before me. Also, THIS EPISODE!!! Soooo good and something I think more women need to realize is so important!
Madi, I was surprised, but in a good way that you spoke about voting at the end. As Allie Beth Stuckey says... politics matter, because policy matters, because people matter. I am sure you will receive some backlash for speaking out, but as your sister in Christ, I am so glad you did. I will help you share the arrows.
I come from a long line of strong Latino women. All ended up single mothers and were all abused. I grew up to believe to never rely on anyone ESPEICALLY a man (my grandmother emphasised this) I never saw a strong good man growing up until my step dad came in but by then it wad too late. I thought marriage isn't for me, I'll probably get divorced.. and I ended up in sinking into sin, not respecting my body, being abused and ending up a single mum with a 1 year old. I still wasn't married... I made it work with what I had and never relying on anyone.. I was resilient and the don't rely on a man helped me at tjat time until I met my husband. I have had to unlearn sooo many things and my husband still now has to remind me that I'm safe, and it's okay.. he's not going anywhere. I'm so thankful to find this video and I need more Godly women in my life to talk to about this. I have no idea how to be a godly wife but heavens do I try.
It’s very nice to hear women of God speaking about these things! I’m a millennial and since middle school I’ve never joined in man bashing and have always chimed in to counter act it when others would. I’ve also always embraced femininity and modesty in behavior and clothing since then as well. In high school I started a self-employed business that I still do currently, instead of trying to dominate in a “male dominated field” job. I’ve been very ostracized by woman inside and outside of church and told I’m harming and setting women back by my life choices regarding these. It’s resulted in me having extremely few positive godly women in my life. I have a difficult time feeling sorry or empathetic towards women, because of what women have put me through.
I am inspired by the message/advice you share on your podcast. Thank you so much for taking your time and inviting guest on your podcast to share the important messages that you choose to post up! ❤
I admire your boldness, Madi. Your actions inspire me to live my life the same way. It is difficult for me living in a blue state where people are very vocal about their beliefs that support the pervasive narrative the news media creates. There are so many lies and we have to do our own research as you’ve said.
Madi I just love your podcast so much and I see so clearly how you have stepped into your authority and are glorifying God so beautifully. I live in Dallas and if you are ever back, I would love to get coffee and pick your brain on all things Jesus. God bless you❤
I’ve enjoyed every episode. I’m a sister in Christ. I would like to encourage you, Romans 3 v 23-26. (ESV) “ For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and are justified by his grace as a gift…” it continues but I just wanted to encourage those who might feel judge for any reason at all. A gossiper, etc ( just giving an example) is just a sinner as a homosexual. That’s why there’s no works we can do to receive God’s love but through faith.
This has definitely highlighted some wonderful aspects of women-hood, especially for married women. Do you have any insight for those of us that aren’t in a relationship yet? It’s difficult to feel like I was made as a puzzle piece to help man when there isn’t one in my life.
hello, i’m sorry, this feels inappropriate to comment here but i’m just seeking prayer in any way that i can. and im sorry i’ve commented a few times. im just desperate. thank you in advance for any prayer. i just need help. i’m struggling with so many bad thoughts, my mind is at war even while i sleep. i wake up with bad thoughts that leave me panicked and afraid of God and His word because of how condemned it makes me feel. and when i call out to Jesus i’ll have thoughts that say “No” or “i’m not willing to help you”. I keep praying, rebuking the thoughts, speaking scripture. spending time in the word, seeking to just listen to God but i feel caught up in this endless torment of bad thoughts. thoughts that accuse, and make me feel like God wants nothing to do with me. Thoughts that suggest that God’s done with me. Or that He’ll refuse to listen to my prayers. I know that His word is the truth, but i’m struggling to believe it for myself. i start thinking that maybe i’m just trying to deceive myself if i don’t believe these thoughts. i’m exhausted from fighting. i feel so worn out and torn apart. i’m trying to just remain humble and ask myself what i could be doing but i feel like i have nothing left in me. (making sure im not doing anything to open doors). (i’m pretty strict with what i watch and listen to) but i just end up confused. these thoughts are so overbearing and overwhelming. i feel consumed. i can’t think of anything else. it’s been weeks now. i’m seeking help in every way that i can. it’s hard to lean on God or seek Him when i feel afraid of Him. when i continue to press in and try to continue reading my word or praying sometimes it just intensifies. which makes me feel so defeated. all i hear is accusation. i open His word and struggle with reading it without hearing it as if everything was aimed at me (i struggle with scrupulosity and religious OCD) which makes it incredibly difficult to press in, and painful. emotionally. it hurts so much. and it feels frightening because i want to love God and love His word but it makes me feel like He’s very mad at me. I have thoughts that suggest these things as well while i try to open my word. it happens also in moments when i am at church listening to sermons. it’s fluctuated. it just hurts so much and it makes me feel awful about myself. leaves me feeling terrified and helpless and especially condemned. i know His word convicts but all of this just leaves me feeling so rejected and condemned. i struggle to not believe the thoughts about myself because i know how imperfect i am and i start thinking that maybe im just trying to deceive myself. i believe in Gods word, i believe in Him, but all of this makes me believe it for myself. thinking that maybe God has given up on me. it’s so scary to feel that way. i don’t know how to do this. i keep asking God for help. i apologize this is so long. i feel hopeless. thank you so much for praying for me.
Friendly reminder that feminism has multiple definitions and manifestations, but at its base, no matter what, means that people are worthy of equal human rights- regardless of their identity. Jesus was a feminist, as he encouraged us to treat one another with human dignity, and called for everyone to see each other as children of ywhw, made in yhwh’s image. All that feminism asks is for women to be treated with the same basic rights, respect and dignity that men have enjoyed throughout western history. Across Christian theologies and Feminist theory, this is a central point, and I’d beg to argue that you cannot be a Christian without being a feminist. Woman are human beings, the same as men, period.
I was really loving this conversation until Lisa seemed to encourage women to preach from the pulpit. Is that really her stance? I’m not familiar with her and was initially interested in learning more but sadly I have pause. 😢
God doesn’t make mistakes. And that’s exactly why trans people aren’t mistakes. He tests our ability to love others with people who are different from us. And y’all fail that test. Please allow people to pursue happiness on Earth. Leave them alone. This is rhetoric is dated and so harmful. The obsession to control other people under the guise of religion is so weird.
Jesus loves you so much! I wanted to say that. I also want to remind all who read this that although God doesn’t make mistakes, choosing the lifestyle of being trans means that your original gender was a mistake made by God. That’s not true. God gave us a true identity in Christ. The good news is God doesn’t care about those flaws and errors anymore, Christ already came to clear our sins so it’s easy to repent and change your heart to live for him. But he is coming again and this time it’s to bring judgment upon those who prioritized their identity and self over his word. As Christians yes we are called to love and that includes those in the LGBTQ community but it love is also truth. Leaving them alone because they chose a lifestyle isn’t loving. Speaking the truth in love like this podcast is , is loving!
Do you mean, that God created humans transsexual and that letting children take drugs and be mutilated is an act of love? And that your rhetoric is superior and so are you? And people should not about, but you can?
God didn't make a mistake. satan just got to them before He did. it's unfortunate. satan is all around us, everywhere. poisoning our Healthcare, our food, our water, our entertainment. it's so unfortunate 😢
I don't think you realize what you said, if God makes no mistakes then your gender you are born with wasn't a mistake. No one is born trans. Otherwise of course just because people are different from you doesn't mean you can't treat them like a human. Being born into sin means us humans will want to sin and do things we aren't supposed to, however God did not create our flaws and insecurities or our behaviors. So when people say "God makes no mistakes" then that means the way we were originally made weren't a mistake whether it's male or female.
Olivia, you need a lot of prayer!! ALOT! God will work in your heart to see the truth. Jesus loves everyone, and his grace has no limits. Man is created in the image of God. He has never made a mistake on gender, that comes from the enemy.
Wow! I am a man and this episode was one of the most valuable pieces of content I’ve listened to in my life.

Thank you so much Madi, and Lisa!
Same it’s so good they’re so smart and rooted
Wow! What a blessing! This was so wonderful to hear. So much truth of role of women . Please make more like this! God bless

I never comment on videos, but WOW, this is good. One of the best approaches to this topic I have ever heard!

I am sure you will receive some backlash for speaking out, but as your sister in Christ, I am so glad you did. I will help you share the arrows.
I love this! Please have her back on again to talk more about embracing the beauty of being a female!

When she said, "men don't know how to be men and women dont know how to be women..." HITS!
Omg my two favorite women on earth! Ive never clicked so fast 😂 You two are so awesome/just great roles models. God bless you my sisters!
Yes!! This was so encouraging and uplifting, Praise the LORD! Life giving and strengthening, thank you Jesus
It’s very nice to hear women of God speaking about these things!

My #1 favorite podcaster ❤️ You have changed my life (through Jesus) more than you even know. I wish I could touch lives the way you do! 🫶🏼
Yess these conversations need to be had more often! Thank you ladies for speaking out about this 🫶🏽
I am inspired by the message/advice you share on your podcast. Thank you so much for taking your time and inviting guest on your podcast to share the important messages that you choose to post up! ❤
So good!!!! Thank you for standing for truth 💛

This was one of your best podcast to date. Thank you for speaking truth over a difficult topic 🙏
I’ve enjoyed every episode. I’m a sister in Christ.
I would like to encourage you, Romans 3 v 23-26. (ESV) “ For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and are justified by his grace as a gift…” it continues but I just wanted to encourage those who might feel judge for any reason at all.
A gossiper, etc ( just giving an example) is just a sinner as a homosexual.
That’s why there’s no works we can do to receive God’s love but through faith.

Excellent podcast!

42:31 the if I die I die dialog by Easter, well men love to say that when they are courageous. Such traits got no gender
This has definitely highlighted some wonderful aspects of women-hood, especially for married women. Do you have any insight for those of us that aren’t in a relationship yet? It’s difficult to feel like I was made as a puzzle piece to help man when there isn’t one in my life.
Amen!!
Amen 🙏🏼
I truly miss your old set up 😢 hopefully it makes a come back in your new spot 💝
You guys need some chief swag officer mic covers

So technically they aren’t equal to men if something is forbidden 43:53
I was really loving this conversation until Lisa seemed to encourage women to preach from the pulpit. Is that really her stance? I’m not familiar with her and was initially interested in learning more but sadly I have pause. 😢
Women are frilly? (I know you were not saying that) but another strong non frilly woman….go to Judges 4:21

Woww, I love how real Lisa is 🫶Her explanation and openness, and this comment is just at 7:52 ?! I just felt led to say this. 🤍 hallelujah.
