Gailfriend Talks

Waiting on love can feel challenging, but singleness is not a pause—it’s a season of purpose. If you are a Christian single woman who desires to date while still honoring God tune in for encouragement, biblical insight, and practical wisdom on embracing your single season. Be inspired to find peace, growth, and joy in the wait.

Are you minimizing the vision God wants to maximize? Too often we pray according to our humanity oppose to God's divinity. We pray according to what seems logical to our finite expectations, but God in all of His greatness wants to exceed our expectations. Tune in as Gail shares about the points of enlarging our vision to align with God's vision for our lives.

Because life is always changing there will always be seasons of our lives we have to say goodbye to. This isn't always easy, but its necessary for us so that we may BE, DO and GO to the next God is calling us to. Tune in as Gail shares with you about the "Act of Goodbye."

We are what we believe. In fact, we live our lives based on what we believe about ourselves. Tune in as Gail shares about the lies of the enemy we sometimes agree with, and the truth that will set you free.

Sometimes our expectations on how God is going to answer our prayers are the limits we place on God. God does not just want to meet our expectations, He wants to exceed them. Listen, as Gail shares about expecting the unexpected.

Too often we allow procrastination to rob us of our time. Life is passing by along with your dreams, plans, goals and purpose. Procrastination comes with all sorts of excuses. We even use the excuse, “I am waiting on God” when in actuality, God is waiting on you. Listen as Gail shares with you about spiritual procrastination.

Let’s face it! There will always be something trying to take our attention away from God. We must be vigilant and intentional in maintaining our focus. Listen as Gail shares how distractions can affect our relationship with God and what we can do to combat being distracted.

The truth is we all have certain beliefs that we stand on. However, is what we believe the truth? Listen as Gail shares the revelation she received recently about accepting what we believe verses real truth. Sometimes the truth can be staring us right in our face and we still refuse to accept it. Why? -Because we are too fixated on what we believe.

Sometimes in life, we will feel stuck, as if nothing is changing or going our way. Our contentment, as believers and joy do not come from circumstances. It comes from our relationship with the Lord. Being stuck and feeling stuck are two different things. We must determine the truth of our situation and draw from God and trust that God is always working whether we see it or not.

What is your barometer on love? Is love a feeling or a choice? Let's just say, there is nothing natural about love. Love is supernatural. Only a supernatural natural love can love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you and forgive those who have trespassed against you. Only a supernatural God working on the inside us could do these things. Not our feelings. Our feelings would do otherwise. Listen to the latest episode of Gailfriend Talks as she shares on the struggle to love.

Grief is something we will all experience in our lives. It’s the emotional suffering you feel when something or someone you love transitions. The Lord, who is our Comforter let’s us know in Psalm 34:18 that He is close to the broken hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. That is how I described my grief when my mother went home to be with the Lord. I was broken hearted and crushed. Tune in as I share my story about grieving the loss of my dear mother.

Let’s face it! The struggle is real. We all have that one thing or two that we struggle with. It is the thing that requires more prayer and faith. God is waiting to perform a miracle in your life. Will it require obedience from you? Yes! —But when we put our trust in God and exercise our faith, that something that may have seemed impossible to overcome becomes possible. After all, nothing is impossible with God.

Our words carry real weight and power. The Bible says, “Life and Death is in the power of the tongue.” When we make comments that are the opposite of what we desire to see, it is likely you will create what you say. It’s important that we partner with God’s word when declaring what comes after the words, “I am…” “I am” is a identity confession. Instead of speaking what you do not want to see, begin declaring what you desire to see according to God’s word. Tune in as Gail shares with you the meaning and the power of the words, “I am.”

Have you been agreeing with trauma, your fears, insecurities and life’s challenges have been telling you? It’s time to breach the contract with the enemy’s lies and accusations and walk in the blood written contract of our Lord and King. Tune in and listen to this powerful message about only answering to what is true.

Gail starts season two of Gailfriend Talks with a powerful testimony of all God is doing in her life. Her testimony confirms what happens when you persist in prayer, seeking and trusting God even when you do not see any evidence of change. Tune in and be inspired to keep marching.

Let’s face it! Nobody likes to suffer. Nobody wants to experience the pain of losing a loved one, a divorce, persecution or a health crisis, but these things are happening every day. People are suffering. Christ suffered for us all. He left us a blueprint on how to suffer through. Listen as Gail shares a message on how to respond to suffering.

Have you grown weary with doing the right thing? Has it become a struggle to continue to do good? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? You are not alone. Just because you are a follower of Christ does not erase the fact that sometimes weariness sets in. Listen, as Gail shares how to overcome those weary moments and enlightened you to the fact that weariness is where God’s strength resides.

Our freedom is not so much in being freed FROM as opposed to being freed TO be who Christ says we are. Too often, we exhaust our human energy trying to be freed FROM, not recognizing as children of God, we are already free. Tune into Gailfriend Talks to hear about being set free to walk in who God says you are.

Let’s face it! We all will encounter rejection, but it’s the root of rejection that can cause adverse effects in a person’s life. If you have been struggling to be set free from rejection’s sting or know somebody who has, tune into this life changing talk on the root of rejection that may set you on the road to freedom.

Some people believe meekness is a sign of weakness, but quite contrary. It is strength under the power of God. It is an attribute that does not come easy, nor naturally. It is Holy Spirit induced. Listen as Gail shares why meekness is the answer to life’s questions we pose to God that go unanswered.

Success defined varies for every person. Some believe it is based on possessions and accomplishments. Others may think differently, viewing success less about what you have but Whose you are. Listen, as Gail shares her idea on what it is to be truly successful.

Have there been moments you have felt as if your role, position, your gift did not matter? Perhaps you feel that way now. God sees all our gifts on even playing field. They are all useful for the building of the kingdom no matter what your role, position or gift. There is one body with many parts. We all have a part to play. You know what that means? Your. gift. matters.

Entering new territory can be uncomfortable, especially when you do not feel as if you do not know enough to do what you are doing. The beauty of not knowing is it allows us to lean and depend on God to do. Listen as Gail shares her heart about the beauty of not knowing.

What are you waiting on? Are you waiting on God to answered that prayer? Let’s face it! Waiting on God can be difficult. One of the things that can make it less difficult though is, instead of waiting ON God, we should learn to wait IN God. Listen as Gail shares on the importance of waiting IN God.

Sometimes we lose sight of our relationship with God, our dreams, health goals and the list goes on. Sometimes we get caught up on what see, when what we see is not necessarily what we see. Tune in as Gail shares about the power of focus.

Let’s face it! Sometimes trusting God can be a struggle, especially when life hits with the one-two punch! Listen as Gail shares some tips on learning to trust God in our every day lives.

Trust is a very powerful thing. Without it, relationships can’t flourish, companies cannot properly run, or people cannot grow! Amazing how we will trust a stranger to cook our food, transport us to various locations whether by plane or car, but when it comes to trusting God, the creator of heaven and earth, some waver. Why is that? In my opinion, I believe the main reason is, we tend to correlate trusting the perfect God with trusting imperfect people.

Welcome to 2022! As I reflect on the past year, there are three lessons I have learned. I am almost certain that these lessons will speak to you as well. If not, maybe you know somebody that could benefit from what I have learned. Either way, life is one big lesson. As we continue to learn, that means we will continue to grow!

Listen as Gail shares how to combat settling into the effects of fear, becoming too comfortable and low self-esteem.

Have you found yourself settling IN what you should not be settling FOR? Too often we become too comfortable in areas in our lives that were only meant to be for a season. Although comfortable is a place you can live, it’s not a place you can grow. Listen as Gail shares on not settling.

It goes without saying that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Even in Biblical times, God used David to slay a giant. He used Moses to lead the children of Israel out of Egyptian slavery and the list goes on. God is still doing the same today even amid a pandemic! When we seek God first and walk in obedience to His word, He honors our obedience and faith. Listen as Gail shares a powerful testimony about God’s faithfulness.

Are you living what you deem to be a full life? If not, what does a full abundant life look like to you? Everybody has their idea of what it is to live a full life. One thing is for sure, we all want the kind of life that we can truly say we enjoy living. Listen, as Gail shares her perspective on what it means to live a life that is abundantly full.

Recently, I listened to Matthew McConaughey’s 2014 Oscar’s Award acceptance speech. There are three things he mentioned he seeks every day. They help him not be complacent, instead be active in the pursuit of becoming a better version of himself. Life can easily land us on the methodical “merry-go-round” if we allow it. Listen as Gail shares her perspective on three things we should know to propel us into living a life that is not silent but speaks.

Let’s just face it! We all have found ourselves asking God why? Why did this pandemic happen? Why did my loved one pass away? Why does it seem to be one thing after another? We ask questions mainly because we don’t understand. However, is it right to question God? Listen as Gail shares her perspective on questioning God!

Do you find yourself asking God what mission does He have for you next? You may find yourself in that space in life where you know God is calling you to more and greater! Listen as Gail shares ideas on what’s next for you!

Much like the widow disregarded the jar of oil in II Kings as “nothing”, we tend to do the same. We, sometimes minimize what God can maximize. What have you regarded as useless that God can use for His glory? Listen as Gail shares what we all can learn from the widow’s story.

Too often we may miss the blessing of God because our finite mind wants to understand what God is doing or may be calling us to do to make sense. A lot of times, when God called people in the Bible, it didn’t make sense. Just ask Noah and Abraham and so many others. On the other side of our obedience is our blessing. Trust God even when it doesn’t make sense.

We live in a culture that most often focuses on me, myself, I and mine. God calls us to lay aside self for the greater good of His kingdom through serving others. Sometimes, it’s not about you, but what God wants to do in and through you. Listen, as Gail shares her story about serving others.

So many times we may give people the “what”, “when” and “why” without the “how.” This episode will enlighten you to HOW to let go of what you may be holding on to or what has been holding on to you.

How many times have you start something only to not finish? Whether it is completing college or project, what is God asking you to finish. Instead of starting something new, go back and finish what you started! You. can. do. it!

Let’s just face it! Love can be painful. Pain will always be the twin to Love. You cannot have love without experiencing pain. “Pain arouses what love can heal and love arises when pain is revealed. Listen as Gail shares how we can love pass what hurts.

Sometimes we have the tendency to hold on to those things that may be holding us hostage. Whether it’s fear, unforgiveness, bitterness, it is power in letting go! Listen as Gail bares all in her story of letting go, what that meant and what it can mean for you!

Life has a way of knocking the hope out of you, especially when life happens.  In our world, people are experiencing challenges and pain on a level that is leading to a sense of hopelessness.  Hope is life-sustaining.  Without it, we cease to have the desire to live a life that is full of the good things our heavenly Father blesses us with.  If you have lost or misplaced your hope in God, or you want to safeguard from not ever losing or misplacing your hope, this episode is for you.  It is a life-changing word that will certainly empower you and restore your hope in a God whose love is unfailing.

This episode shares some powerful wisdom and knowledge on what it is to be single and Christian.  Listen as Gail interviews three introspective  singles who share their perspective on walking in their "single season."  Their understanding and knowledge will most assuredly give any single the tools to not only wait on the one God has prepared for them, but how to thrive while waiting.  

We’ve all had those moments we wanted to quit because we weren’t getting the results we desired. However, one of the biggest problem with quitting because we don’t see the results is quitting before getting the results had we not quit. Listen and learn, there is great power in not quitting.

How is your relationship with yourself? We often don’t ask ourselves this question, but it’s necessary to understand where we are not only emotionally and mentally but spiritually. Regular self examinations will assist you in recognizing just where it “hurts” and where God needs to perform “surgery.” Listen as Gail explores how a relationship with yourself should look.
