Jill teaches why boundaries are essential to guarding your heart against temptation. She also talks about the importance of allowing God to be in charge of your marriage instead of just an observer of it. This is the 1st message in Jill's 4-message series, "8 Things that Make a Marriage Work." Mark 10:1-9

How do you stay when you really want to go? It's not easy. Abigail was a woman stuck in a difficult marriage with a difficult husband. But instead of being angry and vindictive, she showed godly wisdom and self-control in diffusing tensions, and remained committed to her marriage. In this message, Jill Briscoe walks us through Abigail's story and gives us an example of how to deal with the difficult people in our own lives. Based on 1 Samuel 21-25, this is the 7th message in Jill's 8-message study of women in the Old Testament.

When we think of influential leaders, we often think of those who make bold statements, those who are aggressive or loud. But not all change happens that way. Ruth changed her world using humble acts of love and kindness. Despite her circumstances, Ruth spent her life in service. She lived a life that exemplified love to those around her, particularly in caring for her mother-in-law, Naomi. Jill Briscoe teaches us how much we can learn from Ruth about being a true friend. This is the 6th message in Jill's study of women in the Old Testament and is taken from the book of Ruth and 1 Corinthians 13.

Every day we fight battles: teaching our kids to clean up their toys, dealing with difficult co-workers or family members, getting society to clean up the environment. But even though these battles are big, there is an even bigger war going on - a spiritual one. While we know that God is the ultimate victor, we live every day surrounded by Satan's armies. The judge and prophetess Deborah was surrounded by not only a spiritual war but a physical one! God gave her the gifts and talents she needed to complete the task He gave her. In this message from Judges, Jill shares with us Deborah's story and shows us how we, too, can respond to God and find our roles in this great battle.

Have you ever felt wrongly judged? Rahab was someone who was judged for her outer appearance. A harlot, known for keeping brothels within Jericho, no one would have believed by simply looking at her that she was seeking God. Thankfully, God looks beyond what man sees to the desires of our hearts, and changes us from the inside out. This is the 4th message in Jill Briscoe's series Women Who Changed Their World. Joshua 2-6 & James 2

If you've ever wondered what it looks like to be a servant of God, look to Miriam. Miriam served God using her gifts when she took on a willing, servant attitude. Miriam discovered that she had the gift of prophecy, and she used it where God called her - in leading the people of Israel to the Promised Land, alongside Aaron and Moses. God wants to use you, as He used Miriam, with the gifts and personality that He gave you. In the 3rd message of Jill Briscoe's series, Women Who Changed Their World, we see how God will put you in the right place at the right time. But He requires you to have the right attitude. Exodus 2-15; Psalm 139; I Timothy 2

When we think of someone with a good attitude, Abraham's wife Sarah is probably not the first person who comes to mind. We might think of her arguments with Abraham, how she laughed at God's good news, her harsh dealings with Hagar, how she lied to Pharaoh. But in 1 Peter 3, Peter commends Sarah as a model for all women for her "quiet and meek spirit." What happened in Sarah's life to turn this feisty, contentious, rebel of a woman into God's royal princess? In this message, Jill teaches us about Sarah's life - her shortcomings and how God turned this rebel into royalty - and how giving God control in our own lives can transform our attitudes like it did for Sarah. Based on Genesis 12-18 & I Peter 3-4, this is the 2nd message in Jill's 8-message study of women in the Old Testament.

Women throughout all of history have been trying to find their identities - through marriage, children, a career. But we can find our true identity and fulfillment only in our relationship with God. Eve had a unique opportunity to be with God in the Garden of Eden, and God revealed His intended work for her, what He designed her to do. But Eve's identity was challenged in the Fall when Satan deceived Eve into trying to find her identity outside of the God in whose image she was made. We, too, were created in God's image and were designed for the work He has for us. In this message, Jill walks us through Eve's story and teaches us how it is also our story - how our own identities may be obscured in the Fall but are renewed in Christ's redemptive work. Based on Genesis 1-3, this is the first message in Jill's 8-message study of women in the Old Testament.

Jesus is coming again. He is coming soon... and we'd better be ready! Jill boldly states this as she talks about the second coming of Christ. She explains the need to be alert and shares the joy in anticipating His return. This is the 8th and final message in Jill's series on the parables, titled Hidden Treasures. Matthew 25:1-13

How can I know that I belong to the King and His kingdom? What characteristics should shine through my life? Jill gives us some examples of Christ-following traits in Luke chapter 10. This is the 7th message in Jill's series on the parables, titled Hidden Treasures. This message is centered on the Good Samaritan - the man in the ditch. Luke 10:23-37
