About this episode
What happens when a strong, independent woman learns to submit—not to a man, but to Christ—in marriage? In this heartfelt and honest episode of the I AM HER Podcast, Pastor Lisa and her daughter Bekah sit down for a raw and real conversation about what it truly means to be a wife in the Christian faith. They open up
about the challenges, surprises, and spiritual growth that come with stepping into marriage for the first time—from navigating the balance between leadership and submission to learning how to love with grace, humility, and a heart fully surrendered to God. Whether you're newly married, preparing for marriage, or have been walking through it for years, this episode offers powerful wisdom, encouragement, and truth for every season of womanhood and marriage.
