S2 E161: Why do some Christian women still have mean girl energy?
from Unpolished but Called · host Kathrin Shaffer
Why do some Christian women still have mean girl energy?This episode started with a question that came across my Facebook feed in a Christian women's group. I opened the comments—and honestly, I was shook by how many women described feeling excluded, judged, talked about, or like they'd somehow found themselves back in the high-school cafeteria.So we're going there.We're talking about church cliques, competition between women, passive aggression, gossip disguised as concern, and what happens when “I just don't have a good feeling about her” gets elevated into spiritual discernment.But we're also turning the mirror around, because this conversation gets uncomfortable when we stop asking who the mean girl is and start asking whether we've ever been her.And there's one question in this episode that might sting a little:Would another woman describe me as safe?This isn't about being nicer, pretending everyone gets along, or never confronting another woman. It's about something much deeper—and Galatians 5 gives us a pretty revealing place to start.🎙️ S2 E161: Why Do Some Christian Women Still Have Mean Girl Energy?Scripture: Galatians 5:16, 19–23; James 2:1–4; John 7:24; Philippians 2:3–4; Proverbs 26:24–25; Titus 2:3–5📺 Subscribe to Unpolished but Called:YouTube.com/@KathrinShaffer🌐 Books, Bible studies & more:KathrinShaffer.com🔗 All my links:https://linktr.ee/unpolishedbutcalled
