Can God speak to His people through dreams today?

In this episode of HER Podcast, Pat Domangue and Margaux Nelson discuss biblical dream interpretation and discerning God’s voice through dreams while remaining grounded in the truth of Scripture.

Many Christians feel uncertain about dreams because of concerns that dream interpretation is connected to New Age practices in today’s culture. Yet throughout the Bible, God spoke to His people through dreams—using them to guide, warn, prepare, and encourage. From Joseph in Genesis to Daniel and even the dreams surrounding the birth of Jesus, dream interpretation in the Bible reveals how God has used dreams to communicate His purposes to His people.

So how can believers remain spiritually sensitive while also practicing biblical discernment?

In this conversation, Pat and Margaux explore what Scripture says about dreams, how the Holy Spirit speaks to believers today, and how to test what we hear so that we remain firmly rooted in God’s Word.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What the Bible says about dream interpretation
• How to discern whether a dream may be from God
• Guardrails for avoiding deception while remaining open to the Holy Spirit
• The importance of balancing Spirit and truth in the Christian life
• Why God sometimes speaks through dreams and prophetic impressions
• Practical steps for paying attention to what God may be saying

If you’ve ever wondered whether God might be speaking to you through dreams, this conversation will encourage you to seek Him with both faith and biblical wisdom.

What if the Bible is deeper—and more connected—than you’ve ever been taught to see?

In this episode of HER Podcast, Pat Domangue is joined by Cassian Bellino, host of The Biblically Speaking Podcast, for a rich conversation about how historical and cultural context can unlock Scripture in ways a surface-level reading often misses. Cassian shares her journey from “Sunday school answers” to a genuine hunger to understand God’s Word—and how that desire led her to build a podcast that helps everyday believers hear scholars explain complex topics simply.

You’ll also hear why the story of the bleeding woman is filled with profound Old Testament connections, and how spiritual practices like fasting can shift our dependence from the world back to the Lord.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your Bible reading, unsure what to do with confusing passages, or hungry for deeper understanding—this episode will encourage you to lean in and keep digging.

A fire-tested faith, true identity, and hope beyond healing

What do you do when suffering lingers… prayers seem unanswered… and the life you planned disappears?

In this powerful and honest episode of HER Podcast, Pat Domangue sits down with Lara Silverman, Christian author and former federal prosecutor, to talk about faith that is forged—not shattered—in the fire of suffering.

After developing a rare neurological illness that left her bedridden for years, Lara lost not only her legal career, but later her husband after just one year of marriage. In what she describes as a Job-like season, Lara wrestled deeply with God—asking hard questions about identity, healing, suffering, and trust.

Yet in the midst of loss, God met her with unexpected joy, deep spiritual healing, and a renewed understanding of what it means to find identity in Christ alone.

In this conversation, you’ll hear:

• Why suffering doesn’t mean God has withdrawn His love
• How to wrestle honestly with God without losing your faith
• What it means to find joy without physical healing
• How identity is refined when careers, health, and dreams are stripped away
• Why eternity reframes suffering in powerful ways
• How God works “grief to glory” in ways we may not fully understand

Lara also shares the heart behind her memoir Singing Through Fire, a testimony of joy, faith, and surrender forged through prolonged suffering—and why God never wastes a single moment of our pain.

If you’re walking through a season of chronic illness, grief, loss, or unanswered prayer, this episode offers biblical truth, deep encouragement, and hope that doesn’t depend on circumstances changing.

🎧 Listen in and be reminded: God is still present, still faithful, and still working—even when suffering doesn’t end.

Feeling unloved or unlovable? Explore healing, identity, and the woman with the issue of blood in this powerful HER Podcast conversation.

In this week’s episode of the HER Podcast, we continue our My True Identity series with a powerful and relatable conversation about one of the most common—yet hidden—identity struggles women face: feeling unloved or unlovable.

Pat is joined by licensed professional counselor and marriage & family therapist Taylor Draughn, who brings both professional insight and biblical wisdom into this tender topic.

Together, they explore:

· The woman with the issue of blood (Mark 5) — how 12 years of isolation, rejection, and suffering shaped her identity… and how one faith-filled moment with Jesus transformed everything.

• Why isolation intensifies the feeling of being unlovable
• How discouragement, repeated disappointments, and unresolved issues distort identity
• Why anger, shame, and emotional “baggage” are often symptoms—not the root issue
• How forgiveness becomes a pathway to healing, not a one-time event
• What Scripture says about God’s deep, unwavering love (Ephesians 3:17–19; 1 John 3:1)
• Practical steps to begin healing, shift untrue beliefs, and embrace your true identity in Christ

This episode is for the woman who feels unloved and sometimes feels she is hard to love. She wonders if things will ever change in her life.

Be encouraged—Jesus sees your issues, knows your story, and calls you “Daughter.” Just like the woman in Mark 5, He invites you into healing, wholeness, and identity rooted in His love.

So many women—especially those serving in ministry—live with a constant background noise of “I’m overwhelmed.” In this episode of HER Podcast, Pat Domangue sits down with organizing pioneer and author Barbara Hemphill (Taming the Paper Tiger, Less Clutter, More Life) to talk about what clutter is really about… and it’s not the stuff. Barbara shares how physical and digital clutter often point to deeper emotional and spiritual clutter, why “clutter is postponed decisions,” and how a clear vision (Proverbs 29:18) is key to getting unstuck.

You’ll hear practical, hope-filled strategies for creating simple systems, asking for help, and building community so you don’t try to manage life alone. Barbara also ties it all back to our walk with God—because maintaining a real relationship with Him is where peace, focus, and productivity begin.

If you’ve ever said things like, “I can't keep up. I am so overwhelmed” this conversation will help you breathe, reset, and start making decisions again.

In this episode you’ll learn:

· Why overwhelm is often emotional or spiritual, not just logistical

· How to think about clutter as postponed decisions

· The role of vision in getting organized

· Why women in ministry tend to neglect their own well-being

· How faith and community make decluttering doable
