Summary

After an unexpected 5-month podcast break, we're back with our most vulnerable episode yet. While Every Woman A Theologian kept going, we had to pause the podcast to navigate some of life's biggest challenges. What does it look like to live out theology in the middle of pain and difficulty? Here's the real story of why we stepped back from podcasting and how we've had to practice what we preach in our darkest moments. In This Episode: * Living Out Theology in Real Life * Why we paused the podcast * Walking through secondary infertility and loss * Balancing ministry travel with family crisis * A prophetic dream that sustained our faith * Getting ready to meet our miracle baby * The ministry work that continued behind the scenes 🙏 Prayer Requests: Pray for baby Olivera as we welcome her into our family, and for wisdom as we navigate this new season of ministry. 📅 What's Coming: * Verity Conference 2024 session reruns * Verity Conference 2025: October 3-4 (online) * Returning to Ancient Heresies podcast series * New 2026 series (we want your input!) 🔗 Links: Verity Conference 2025: https://verityconference.com/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa0Y1ZHlnbHNFYXhlZEtOUHVUbm01TVV5eXZlUXxBQ3Jtc0tuV09CNEliZzNqWGNEcmJfZVBlOU9FMUJoLXFwby1wWVBHNnJYdDQ1X2phZ2NxdXkzeG1HaWJNYlVHVy1SRm5qQWRmemNQMzBYTk9sOWtYYmJSYUd1MEJ2NmNaeUs5RU9oRTRRZUtLVTNwRU9sSi1GMA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fverityconference.com%2F&v=lGDqQ6KBiBo] EWAT Shop: https://phyliciamasonheimer.com/store/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbms3Q29vQUpQOTNfZnRmRnJ6SzhxREdhZVd2Z3xBQ3Jtc0tsWklueV9PZ1dRdFBNUXZrM1dQcmI3ZzVYb09LQU9OdkFmVVo1ZzU5VmNaWW9WajBFWW0weV9BcFhuajlHNkdVWU9lVk5rb0VmNzQ0a1g3U2NaZDZXV2lSYmFLV3h0TlNhYk93Q2c3UHRnX2Y2aVQzdw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fphyliciamasonheimer.com%2Fstore%2F&v=lGDqQ6KBiBo] 💝 Thank You: To everyone who prayed, supported, and carried us through 2024's hardest season - you are the beautiful body of Christ in action.

0:00.0	What does it look like to live out theology in the middle of pain and difficulty?
0:07.4	What does it look like to hear the voice of God?
0:10.0	What does it look like for the church to encourage one another daily?
0:14.9	All of these things that we've talked about in theory on this podcast, we have actually had to live out in real life.
0:24.7	Hello, friends. Welcome back to Verity Podcast. It has been a little while since I recorded
0:31.9	a new episode for you, and I have some explaining to do about why that is. Our last episode was in April of
0:41.5	2025, the height of our busy travel season for the ministry speaking around the nation for the next
0:50.5	few months after April, and we thought that we could bring the podcast back on for the
0:56.2	summer, but in the end, we had some major changes to our plans, and we weren't able to do that.
1:02.2	So this is a little bit of a season relaunch after our unplanned break for the summer of 2025. But we're so thrilled to be able to come back
1:14.6	for the fall and winter of 2025 as we prepare to finish our false teaching and ancient
1:23.2	heresies series and then launch a new series in 2026. I want to tell you a little bit about where we've
1:30.5	been, what has happened since the last episode went up. And so this episode is not going to be on
1:37.0	the ancient heresies and false teaching. This is going to be more of a personal look at kind of
1:41.1	where we're at as a ministry, why we took a break, why I had to take a
1:45.9	break, and what God has been doing in the meantime. So for those of you who are faithful listeners
1:52.8	of Verity Podcast, you might already be aware of our story. I tend to be better about sharing
2:00.1	more of our testimony, more of our personal story on
2:02.7	my social media, in my email newsletter, and not so much on the podcast. The podcast has become
2:08.4	really more of a place for teaching. We want to be as helpful as possible, and it's not really a
2:13.8	lifestyle podcast, so I don't get into too much about my personal life here.
2:18.8	But I thought, you know, as we're coming back into this series after such a long,
