Unworthy Faith?
[Editor’s Note: This is an excerpt from Shauna Letellier’s book Remarkable Faith: When Jesus Marveled at the Faith of Uremarkable People. (Thanks to Faith Words for sending me a copy for review!) This section of the book on unworthy faith really resonated with me, and I hope it can inspire you on your faith journey as well!] When Jesus had finished saying all this to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum. 2 There a centurion’s servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus,…

Why Do You Need Friends
[Editor’s Note: This is a guest post by Ayodele Oluwafunsho. “Why Do You Need Friends” is a follow-up post to her last guest blog on Devotional Diva on the topic of friendship: “We Are Meant to Relate.” Look out for even more friendship posts from Oluwafunsho!] WHY DO YOU NEED FRIENDS? My last post was about what Friendship is and what it entails. Today, I would like to discuss two other important aspects of Friendship. Why do you need friends? You are a product of people’s inputs; whoever you have in your life is either adding to you or subtracting from you. This either brings a positive or a negative input into…

Change Your Story
[Editor’s Note: The following is an excerpt from Kirstin Leigh’s breakout book, Change Your Story. I am so grateful to Kirstin today for sharing her inspiring story today on Devotional Diva — both in text AND video form! Be sure to watch her video for Devotional Diva below, too!] Choosing to Change Don’t wait until the pain outweighs the pleasure.

My Modesty Story
[Editor’s Note: This is a guest post by Hannah Anderson. Today Hannah is sharing her personal modesty story — and I commend her for that. Everyone has different modesty standards today; let’s face it, there’s no cut and dry rules. Hannah felt led to share and I love the lesson in her story! Thank you Hannah for being brave!] A twenty-something Christian woman who always always held herself up to Christian standards of purity and modesty (sort of, more on that later) and wore her father’s purity ring he gave her a decade prior with pride. This woman always liked to talk about how above the world and the…

Editorial: Why All Women Are Safe at Devotional Diva
Why All Women Are Safe at Devotional Diva I am a Christian, and I believe God made and loves all humans, regardless of their current religion or lack thereof. While I would never want to alienate any of Devotional Diva’s followers, at some point I think it becomes more of an issue to not speak out. I think we have reached that point. I greatly respect everyone’s points of view, so please keep that in mind. However, as a Christian with this platform, I feel the need to speak out. Although Devotional Diva was founded as a Christian blog, please know that your faith doesn’t matter here. You are safe…

How Top-40 Pop Relates to Worship
[Editor’s Note: This is a guest post by Sarah Anne Brown. When Sarah sent this devotional in, I was so excited! I LOVE taking top-40 songs and turning them into worship songs! My personal favorite top-40 song that really gets me in a worship mood is “Rather Be” by Clean Bandit. Thanks so much for sharing your story today, Sarah!] When I first heard “Starving” by Hailee Steinfeld, I did what most people did: put it on repeat for about two weeks and then forgot about it. But thanks to my comprehensive Spotify playlists, I revisited the song a few months ago. When I heard it again, I was undergoing a lifestyle…
