Shielded

Do you love to study God’s Word but get confused because you are searching verse-to-verse for answers? Do you have the confidence to share your faith? Are you craving a community of people like yourself to study and review the Bible with?

I am so glad you are here! This podcast will help you research context, understand the Bible as one story, and learn about creative ways to study to help you feel connected to God’s Word and grow your faith!

Hey, y’all! We're so glad you are here! I’m Gina, a daughter of the King, mom, GiGi, wife and creative gal who loves to study the Word using all of the creative talent that the Lord gave me. My Mom, Pat, and I are taking a mother-daughter journey through faith and we would love for you to come along! We will start in the beginning and read the books of our Bible in chronological order so that our creative minds can draw timelines and do character studies in our own way. 

I used to struggle with what to study. I tried devotionals, but that didn’t give me the type of fulfillment I craved because there was never a story line that I could stay on. So, I started to just open my Bible to find the verse that I thought God had led me to. That worked for me a little bit, but I never knew how to fit it all together into the full story that the Bible has to tell us. 

I have found that my favorite way to study is in the order that the big story happened. I love to dive deep into the characters, the context, the language, the history, and the landscape as if I were there when it happened. I like to “paint” myself in so that I can imagine what it was like while it was happening. 

I created a plan that starts in the beginning and goes in order with a deep dive into context, character studies, word studies, verse mapping, and journaling and I want to share it with you!

So grab your Bible and let's get started!

In Genesis 30–36, Jacob’s journey is filled with family conflict, fear, faith, and transformation. Jacob builds a large family, separates from Laban, wrestles with God, receives the new name Israel, and finally comes face-to-face with his brother Esau after years of separation. In this episode, we explore Jacob’s return to the Promised Land, his powerful encounter with God, the unexpected reconciliation between Jacob and Esau, and his return to Bethel.
Through every struggle, broken relationship, and uncertain step, we see God faithfully keeping His promises. Join us for this Genesis 30–36 Bible study as we discover what Jacob’s story teaches us about surrender, reconciliation, obedience, and trusting God through life’s messiest seasons.
Genesis 32:33 Hebrew Bible Translation "That is why the Children of Israel to this day, do not eat thigh muscle that is on the socket of the hip, since Jacob's hip socket was wrenched at the thigh muscle."

In this episode of Shielded, we continue the story of Abraham. It seems like every chapter starts off by someway saying Abraham was old. It made us giggle, but the story of Abraham is one of the most interesting in the Bible (to us).
We hope you enjoy this episode and that you will share it with your friends!

In this episode of Shielded, we continue our journey through the book of Genesis as we explore three pivotal events that reveal both the brokenness of humanity and the faithfulness of God.
Join us as we discuss Cain and Abel (Genesis 4), the story of Noah and the Flood (Genesis 6:13–22), and the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1–9).
Why did Cain allow jealousy to lead him to murder? What can Noah's obedience teach us about walking by faith in difficult times? And what does the Tower of Babel reveal about pride, self-sufficiency, and our need for God?
Together, we'll uncover how these ancient stories still speak to our lives today—challenging us to examine our hearts, trust God's plan, and rest in His mercy.
In this episode, you'll discover:• The danger of unchecked jealousy and sin• How Noah modeled faithful obedience in a corrupt world• Why pride separates us from God• The consistent thread of God's grace throughout Genesis
Whether you're new to Bible study or have been walking with the Lord for years, this conversation will encourage you to confidently grow in God's Word and increase your faith.
