In this Sisters in Service episode, we follow missionary Darlene Deibler Rose into the darkest corners of a WWII prison camp — and watch how God kept showing up in the smallest, most unexpected ways. Even bananas became proof that He never leaves His children, no matter how impossible the circumstances look!

I recommend reading her book, "Evidence Not Seen". Order it here on Amazon---> https://link.amazon/B0dH53Xef

In this episode, we look at Ephesians 6:10-15 and focus on "standing". Sometimes, it's all we can do to keep standing, not retreating, not sitting, just standing. We get discouraged when it seems like we're just standing still, but when we look into how the battle is the Lord's, then we realize that the battle will be won as long as we're still standing. I hope this episode is an encouragement to you to keep standing for what is right, living for the Lord and letting the Lord get all the glory!

The song I recommend in the episode is "Still Standing" by the Gospel Plowboys.

Ever feel like life has you pressed, squeezed, and completely flattened out? In this episode, we're talking about what comes out of you when the pressure hits — inspired by Bro. Leonard Fletcher's sermon "When the Trials of Life Put a Squeeze on You" and II Corinthians 1:5-9. Paul knew what it meant to be pressed beyond measure, and he found that God's comfort overflows right alongside the suffering. Let's talk about what the squeeze reveals — and why it's never pointless.

Watch it here!

What does the Bible say heaven will be like—and what won’t follow us into eternity? Today we open John 14:1–3 and Revelation 21–22 for a hope‑filled look at the home Jesus is preparing. If you need Christian encouragement, a reminder of eternity, or a gentle Bible study on heaven, this episode will steady your heart.

We walk through the “no mores” of Scripture:no more sorrow, pain, tears, strife, sin, darkness, rushing, waiting, anxiety, or fear.No disabilities. No deadlines. No closets or planners. Time itself won’t exist—just eternity with Christ.Every heavy thing has an expiration date.

If you’re longing for peace, hope, or a clearer picture of heaven, this conversation will bless you.

What does the Bible really mean when it says “serve” or “minister”? In this Word Pantry episode, we break down the three Greek words for service—douleuō , diakonos, and latreuō—and the Old Testament word ‘abad, where work and worship were one.

We barely skim the surface but we hope it encourages you to dig deeper on your own! May the Lord recall these to your mind the next time you happen across the word "Serve" in your Bible reading/study.

In this Sisters in Service episode, we explore the servant-hearted obedience of Lilias Trotter — the gifted artist who walked away from fame to follow God’s call to the hidden places. From London’s art world to forty years in Algeria, her life shows what faithful, unseen service can look like. If you’re longing for a story of humility, surrender, and everyday obedience, this one will steady your heart.

The Extra‑Ordinary Dish Towel — A Lesson in Quiet, Everyday Christian Service

In this encouraging episode of The Buttermilk Pie Podcast, Leah shares a simple but powerful spiritual lesson from an ordinary dish towel. If you’re looking for Christian encouragement, practical faith, and real‑life examples of serving the Lord with gladness, this episode will feel like a warm conversation at the kitchen counter.

Using the everyday dish towel as a picture of humble service, Leah talks about:

• choosing to serve the Lord with gladness

• Mary’s example of willing obedience

• the “bottle in the smoke” from Psalm 119

• how God uses ordinary, unseen acts of service

• staying spiritually clean through the water of the Word

• second‑mile, quiet, faithful service that honors Christ

You’ll hear how a dish towel absorbs messes, gets dirty doing its job, needs regular washing, dries in the dark, becomes “hole‑y,” and serves without discrimination — and how each of those traits mirrors the kind of surrendered, everyday obedience Jesus modeled in John 13. Leah also shares practical, real‑life ways to live out this kind of service at home, at church, and in relationships.

If you love simple spiritual analogies, gentle Christian encouragement, and faith lessons rooted in real life, this episode will bless you. It’s a reminder that God sees every hidden act of love, every quiet moment of obedience, and every small choice to serve with joy.

This month we’re stepping into our March theme: Serving the Second Mile — the kind of obedience Jesus taught in Matthew 5:41. In this episode, we look at what “go with him twain” meant in Jesus’ world and why the second mile still matters for Christian women today.

We talk about the difference between duty and devotion, how Roman law shaped this command, and why the second mile becomes worship when we do it with a willing heart. You’ll hear Scripture examples, stories of ordinary faithfulness, and simple ways this shows up in real life — in our homes, marriages, motherhood, and the hidden corners of our days.

If you’re writing Scripture with us this month, your free March Scripture Writing Kit is waiting in your inbox and in the show notes here--> https://buttermilkpie.gumroad.com/l/secondmile

A gentle, honest beginning to a month of learning how to live beyond what’s required — not because people deserve it, but because Jesus went the second mile for us.
