How do you anchor your soul and stand firm when the world around you feels completely unstable?

This week, Mariel Davenport, a Bible study teacher and creator of the TEND method, joins Jaime for an uplifting and encouraging conversation on reorienting your heart based on her newest Bible study, 1 Peter: Sustained by a Living Hope.

In this episode, Mariel shares the beautiful picture of community through the lens of her salsa garden—explaining how the "companion planting" of tomatoes and jalapeños perfectly mirrors how the body of Christ is designed to mutually benefit and grow together.

Mariel also tackles the misconception that reading the Bible is just an academic exercise, and offers practical advice on how slowing down to handwrite Scripture can cultivate a vibrant, intimate relationship with God rather than just gathering a collection of facts.

Mariel also opens up about the reality of spiritual warfare, sharing how deeply knowing who God says you are is your greatest defense against the enemy's lies. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on what it means to truly tend to your soul, and how remembering your identity as chosen and holy can transform your daily walk with Jesus.
