We are so delighted to introduce Cheri Gregory to you today! It is a privilege to have her on the podcast this week. Cheri is an Author, Speaker, and Podcaster who loves to help women embrace and live in their God-given giftedness.

She openly shares her journey of what it means to be a "highly sensitive person."

On her website, Cheri writes:

"As a Highly Sensitive Person, you’re tired of…

… being easily overwhelmed by things nobody else even notices.

… feeling blind-sided by the intensity of your own emotions.

… hearing, “Why do you have to take everything so personally?” and “You’re just oversensitive!”

…wondering, What is wrong with me?

Cheri has found great freedom in loving herself as an HSP and
"believe(s) every highly sensitive Christian woman can grow
to become both Sensitive & Strong."

Be sure to share this podcast with a friend today. Someone who needs to know they are loved the way they are—maybe that's you, too.

Welcome to A Burst Of Hope. We are thrilled to welcome back Mary Kirby for Part 2 of Sacred Rhythms. Be sure to listen to Part 1, which aired last week.

Our conversation with Mary Lynn explores how spiritual disciplines can transform our hectic modern routines into deeper intimacy with the Lord. Today, she shares more of her LGPA acrostic, concentrating on a practical way to pray for others. From creating a simple prayer box that holds cards for the people you are praying for to cultivating intentional acts of kindness that ripple through your community, we'll explore how these spiritual rhythms can ground us in our walk with Christ.

Thank you for joining us! Please share this episode with a friend.

Welcome to "A Burst Of Hope!" We are thrilled you are joining us, and we're excited to introduce our guest to you. Mary Lynn Kirby is a dear friend to both Martha and Kim. She is passionate about living in the awareness of God's Presence. Mary Lynn practiced law for many years and has served and continues to serve the local church and community in many ways. This week and next, we're diving into something special: gratitude journals and prayer boxes, two sacred tools that help us remember God's presence in our lives. As Mary Lynn says, when my mind can't remember, my pencil does. Her story shouts of the faithfulness of God.

If you're looking for a refreshing approach to gratitude and prayer, these practical rhythms offer a sure path to drawing closer to God and bringing a burst of hope to your spiritual journey.

Welcome to A Burst Of Hope! This week's podcast guest is Shandry Hembree. Shandry shares stories of her incredible life, from being an Air Force wife to owning and managing a gift shop to using her God-given gift of hospitality.
Her life was interrupted by profound loss along the way. Yet the grace of God has sustained her, and her life remains one of great blessing and purpose.
If you have ever wondered how to rebuild your life after dramatic twists and turns, you will hear about Hope from the ruins only Christ can give.

Here's the book Shandry talks about:

365 Days Of Prayer For Life

Welcome to the A Burst of Hope podcast! We're happy to introduce our guest today, Jane McMillan. Jane is a worshiper, has been married for 48 years, has two children, and retired from her career as a legal administrator.
In this episode, Jane shares how her trust in God began as a young child. From a praying Grandmother to other people God strategically put in her life as mentors, her faith was awakened and grew strong.
When we open our hearts to the Holy Spirit's gentle whispers, He takes us beyond our comfortable boundaries of belief, teaching us to trust deeper in God's infinite power.
Whether you're wrestling with doubt, celebrating a breakthrough, or simply seeking to grow in your walk with the Lord, Jane's stories will remind you that God's fingerprints are everywhere. Please help us get the word out about this podcast! You are our best advertisement!

Welcome to 'A Burst Of Hope Podcast,' where your hosts Martha and Kim explore what it means to keep pressing forward even when life feels stuck. In this New Year's episode, we're diving into something powerful: the space between where you are and where you want to be. The place where you have hard questions for God. That little word 'yet' holds so much hope. It's a God-sized word that reminds us that our story isn't over. Whether you're curled up with your morning coffee or tackling that evening commute, join us as we share honest conversations about embracing new beginnings, finding strength in the journey, and choosing hope even when things aren't quite there... yet. We've got some real talk, practical wisdom, and, yes, probably a few laughs ahead. Let's walk into this new year together."

Happy New Year to you, our Burst of Hope Family! Martha, Kim, and Priscilla want to express their appreciation for your faithful following and pray for God's abundant blessings this new year.
They have many surprises in store for you this year and plenty of stories of hope to be shared!
This week's title, "Prisoners of Hope," may sound confusing. It's taken right from scripture, though, and Martha and Kim delve into a conversation around this phrase and other Bible verses that speak to our Hope in Christ alone.


Here's the article that was mentioned:
