Unshakable Identity 
Sister

Episode 71 | July 7, 2025
Lisa Brenninkmeyer and Laura Phelps

Join Lisa and Laura for our series Unshakable Identity. During these four weeks we look at four different aspects of our identity as women and the corresponding characteristics of our feminine genius. As daughter, it’s sensitivity. As sister, it’s generosity. As bride,  it’s receptivity. As mother, it’s maternity. Our goal is that as we explore each of these, we will gain a better understanding of our true identity. Today, Lisa and Laura dive into what it means to be a sister. Being a good sister means we receive others wholly rather than through a narrow perspective. We give of ourselves generously. But what happens when comparison and jealousy creep in? Practically speaking, how do we kick competitiveness to the curb so that we can experience true sisterhood? Grab your sisters, tune in, and find out!

Open your Heart to our key Scripture.
1 Corinthians 13:5: Love does not insist on its own way.

Invite Him in with this episode’s questions for reflection.
When did the seed of comparison and jealousy take root?

When did the enemy speak shame, criticism, the lie that you are not good enough?

What do I need but am too afraid to ask for?
