Hi everyone!! We are so happy to be back today with a NEW episode!!  Today’s topic is one that we (Mariel and Abby) have both walked through... Feeling the pressure to be perfect as Christians. How do we balance the desire to honor God with our lives while relying on the grace of Christ through failure? If this is something you have been struggling with, we hope you enjoy this episode! We pray that you know the Lord’s love for you as His child, as you remain in a relationship with Jesus and look to Him for strength.  Connect With Us:  Instagram: @ourcupoverflows  Email: [email protected] 

Most of us can recall a time where we either listened to gossip, spread gossip, or were the topic of gossip. Gossip is something that people in today's society look at as something fun and harmless to do with friends or bring up when the conversation is lacking. As Christians, we are to live differently and stand apart from this world. There are many verses in the Bible about taming the tongue and how our words hold so much weight. If you are wondering if gossip is actually a sin, or how to recognize gossip in practical ways, this episode is for you! Thank you so much for listening!  Scripture in this episode: 2 Corinthians 12:20 According to Scripture we gossip whenever we: Tell a secret (Proverbs 11:13) Talk too much about others (Proverbs 16:28) Use our words to add fuel to a fight (Proverbs 26:20) Discuss topics we shouldn’t (1 Timothy 5:13) We are also gossiping any time our words cause division (Proverbs 16:28).  Connect With Us:  Instagram: ourcupoverflows Email: [email protected]

Dear Christian, this world would try to trick us and make us believe that is normal to take excessive care of our physical appearance, and that we need to follow a certain pattern of beauty, but the Bible tells us that beauty is vain because it passes away, it says that our bodies will age and perish. Remember what Pauls says in 1 Peter 3:3-4 “Do not let your adorning be external — the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear — but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious”

Hello, friends!! Thank you so much for tuning in to another episode of the Our Cup Overflows podcast. Today we would like to speak to the person who desires to read Scripture every day but battles with consistency. Reading the Bible every day is a discipline that many Christians aspire to do, but sadly, many do not. If you would like to learn practical things to start doing to make Bible reading a daily reality for you, TUNE IN!  We would also like to emphasize that daily Bible reading is not something that we do on our strength, but only by the power of the Holy Spirit who lives inside of all believers. You can do it, dear brother or sister, because of the Holy Spirit within you! Be encouraged because the Lord gives you the power to dive into His Word daily.  Scripture Referenced in this Episode:  Proverbs 29:18  Matthew 7:22-23 Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 Connect With Us:  Instagram: @ourcupoverflows Email: [email protected] 

Let's be real. Most Christians have had a time where we have neglected reading the Bible simply because we do not desire to in that moment. Maybe this phrase sounds familiar to you: I don't FEEL like it. Today we want to speak specifically to the person battling with the spiritual discipline of reading Scripture. We can feel encouraged because as Christians, we do not rely on our own strength, but the strength of the Holy Spirit within us. We hope this episode encourages and challenges you! Have a great week and please don't miss out on reading the Word of God. Connect With Us: Instagram: @ourcupoverflows Email: [email protected]

WELCOME BACK to another episode of the Our Cup Overflows podcast!! In today’s episode, we talk about what it looks like to date with integrity as a Christian. The modern culture we live in today continues to blur the lines between dating and marriage. As Christians, it is important that we avoid “playing house” in our relationships and operating as husband and wife before it is time. Upon reading that statement, you may even wonder why it truly matters to avoid sexual immorality. Listen as we talk about this and more. We pray this episode encourages you and challenges you.  Jesus is Lord and King!  Connect With Us:  Instagram: ourcupoverflows Email: [email protected] 

There are many ideas about dating in our society. Some might think that dating is a status they should stay in until they figure out if they like this person enough to commit to her or him. But as Christians, we should not date like the world. We see dating as a process of evaluation that has movement towards an end: marriage. We hope that you can listen to this episode and have a better idea of what characteristics we should be looking for in a potential partner.

Single? Christian? This episode is for you!! This episode is for the single Christians who find themselves wondering if their single season has a purpose. Spoil alert, it does! Our goal in this episode is to give encouragement to single people that may feel discontent with their relationship status and think everything will be better when they get married.  Listen and find out God’s purpose for your single season (whether temporary or for a lifetime) and how you can live abundantly in it!  If you like this episode, please leave a review and let us know what you think!  - Mariel and Abby Contact Us:  Instagram: @ourcupoverflowsEmail: [email protected]

Many of us know the feeling of weariness, exhaustion, and burnout all too well. What do we do when we get to this place? Join us as we read the story of Mary and Martha in Luke 10:38-42 and discuss ways Christians can recover from exhaustion and live an abundant life in the Lord Jesus. We are excited for you to listen to this episode! We hope that you will listen and feel both encouraged and edified. Have a blessed day!

Hi, family! We finally are releasing the first official episode. We are sharing the reason behind the name of our podcast and diving into the third part of Psalms 23:5. We believe studying the implications of this verse will be edifying and encouraging for our lives.🌿 Psalms 23 is very well known among believers. In fact, this is one of the most popular Psalms in the Bible. However, we want to encourage everyone (along with ourselves) not to lose the awe of familiar Scriptures.

HELLO, HAPPY NEW YEAR AND HAPPY INTRO EPISODE OF OUR CUP OVERFLOWS!! We are so excited to officially be starting this podcast. Our hope is to upload episodes and content for all of us to know and love Jesus more. We hope that you will join us in this journey of life and faith. We would be so grateful if you would follow and share this with your friends to help us spread the Word of God. - Mariel & Abby Connect with us: Instagram: @ourcupoverflows Email: [email protected]
