Equipping Your Girl’s Heart Against Spiritual Deception

How do we prepare our daughters to discern truth in a world filled with competing voices? In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Melissa tackle a challenging yet crucial topic: protecting our daughters’ hearts against the dangers of spiritual deception. While we often see the church as a refuge, moments of betrayal, false teaching, or leadership failure can leave deep wounds. This episode explores how to guide our girls in recognizing these pitfalls while staying steadfast in their faith. 

Drawing wisdom from Scripture, the hosts discuss the importance of testing teachings against the truth of God’s Word, as instructed in 1 Thessalonians 5:21. They’ll also unpack how to cultivate discernment through prayer, Bible study, and critical conversations at home. Whether it’s addressing leadership failures or confronting half-truths from media and peers, this episode provides moms with practical tools to help their daughters stand firm in Christ’s truth. 

You’ll hear from American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay in a powerful Raising Godly Girls Minute. Patti reminds us that spiritual deception can enter even the most sacred spaces but encourages families to anchor themselves in the Word of God. She shares how intentional prayer for church leaders and a commitment to Biblical literacy can help guard hearts and deepen love for Christ and His Church. 

Throughout the episode, Rachael and Melissa offer actionable advice, including ways to discuss truth versus deception, foster spiritual discernment, and nurture an enduring faith in your daughter. They share personal anecdotes and AHG Troop stories that illustrate the significance of equipping girls with a resilient Biblical Worldview. Join us for this timely conversation and be inspired to create moments of connection and faith-building with your daughter.
