This podcast was a word from God given to Emily whilst she was at a summer christian event. she felt she was given a list of titles, before asking God what the titles were for she was given a picture of some ribs draped in a knitted jumper and then, she felt prompted to write by tye drawing ”ribs and knits podcast” and there was born the podcast.

The podcasts is aiming to help Christian girls avoid wearing what scratches and instead put on what brings comfort (JESUS) 🧶.

Since Emily grew up without an older sister to help her know what to avoid, teach her how to do things, give her advice in tough moments, Emily felt she ended up in situations she would not have if she had someone helping her. This podcast will hopefully act as a big siter to girls and give them confidence to go for things in life and, and know Jesus well.

The Story of Ruth: Faith, Loyalty, and God’s Plan

In this video, we’re breaking down the incredible story of Ruth, a woman of faith, kindness, and unwavering loyalty.

➡️ Naomi and her family left their home seeking a better life, but tragedy struck when Ruth’s husband passed away.

➡️ Instead of returning to her old life, Ruth chose to stay with Naomi, declaring, “Where you go, I will go.”

➡️ To provide for them, she gleaned in the fields of Boaz, who would later protect and redeem her.

➡️ Through Naomi’s guidance, Ruth expressed her heart to Boaz, and their love story became part of God’s greater plan, leading to the lineage of Jesus!

Ruth’s story teaches us powerful lessons:

-Kindness – “May the Lord show kindness to you as you have shown to your dead and to me.”

- Consistency – “Where you go, I will go.”

- Reliability – Ruth worked steadily from morning till night.

- Humility – “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you notice me, a foreigner?”

- Obedience – “I will do whatever you say.”

Ruth was an ordinary woman whose extraordinary faith changed history. If we lived like Ruth, how could God use us today?

🌸 Living Out Faith and Works | What Needs to Die in Your Life? 🌸

Are you ready to grow in your faith and start producing real fruit in your life? 🌱 In this video, we’re talking about what it means to die to self so that you can live out your faith in a way that reflects Jesus. John 12:24 reminds us that “death is required to produce much” — meaning that sometimes, the old parts of us need to die so that new, God-given fruit can grow.

✨ What Does It Mean to Die to Self?

Dying to self isn’t about losing your identity or pretending to be someone you’re not. It’s about letting go of selfish desires and shifting your focus from me to others. For me, this meant letting go of my obsession with how I looked, my fashion, and how others perceived me. Once I stopped focusing so much on myself, I was able to serve at my church, build real friendships, and even get to know the names of the homeless people in my area. That’s the fruit that comes when you make space for God to work in your life.

💖 What Do YOU Need to Let Go Of?

Sometimes we’re holding on to things that are stopping us from growing. Galatians 5:22-23 gives us a clear picture of what needs to go:

➡️ Hate → Love

➡️ Misery or moodiness → Joy

➡️ Chaos → Peace

➡️ Impatience → Patience

➡️ Meanness → Kindness

➡️ Wickedness → Goodness

➡️ Faithlessness → Faithfulness

➡️ Brutality → Gentleness

➡️ Indiscipline → Self-control

So… what needs to die in your life to make way for the new?

🔥 Faith Without Works is Dead (James 2:14)

Faith isn’t just about what you believe — it’s about how you live. Love is action. John 13:34 says, “Love one another as I have loved you.” Jesus showed his love through action — so how can you reflect that love today?

🌺 This isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being real, recognizing the parts of you that need to change, and surrendering them to God. When you die to yourself, new fruit WILL come. Healthy relationships, peace, and purpose will follow.

👉 What’s one thing you need to let go of today? Let me know in the comments — I’d love to pray for you!
