A Set Apart Podcast Series with Leslie ludy:
Honorable Womanhood
The Secret to Relational Success
Leslie launches a new series this week, Honorable Womanhood. In this episode, she shares the critical ingredient to a romance that only grows more beautiful with time – putting Jesus above all else. When we look to an earthly relationship to meet needs that only Jesus can meet, we put unrealistic pressure on another person, which can lead to heartbreaking decisions in singleness and frustrated marriages. This message is all about finding our soul-level fulfillment in Christ, which allows us to approach romance and relationships with a selfless and surrendered heart and sets us up for lasting success both in singleness and marriage.
What is Counterfeit Purity?
Leslie continues the Honorable Womanhood series by tackling the issue of counterfeit purity vs. Biblical purity. While many versions of “purity” are promoted within the Church, the reality is that a true commitment to purity can only flow out of a heart that longs to love, honor, and glorify Jesus Christ above all else. As Leslie shares in this episode, when purity is merely a philosophy or concept, we can be easily talked or tempted out of it. But when purity is an outflow of our own passionate devotion to Jesus Christ, it’s a commitment that won’t easily crumble.
What Makes Women Desperate?
In this episode Leslie unpacks the question what makes women desperate? While it’s tempting to look to a relationship to try to find our worth, once we understand the incredible value that God places upon us, we will not be desperate for a relationship because our security will be found in Him. This episode offers Biblical keys to finding our identity in Christ, whether married or single, and helps us gain a healthy mindset toward romantic relationships by laying a foundation of confidence in Christ.

This message can help you become equipped for the battle over marriage and lay the foundation for a relationship that will stand the test of time.
Is Marriage a Woman's Only Purpose?
We often approach marriage from a selfish vantage point, assuming that the main purpose of marriage is for our own happiness. While Christian marriage is a wonderful blessing and gift from God, His purpose for marriage goes beyond personal fulfillment. This episode explores the core principles that create a world-impacting, outward-focused marriage, as well as diving into the role that marriage should play in a woman’s life. If you want a clear, inspiring vision for godly marriage or if you have struggled to find your purpose and identity as a single woman, this episode is for you.
