What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I looked up “obedience and children” and Ashlee‘s podcast came up and that was the first episode that I heard. I have listened to a couple of other episodes and I really enjoy the practicality she brings to every episode and the sound doctrine. To me this is the most important thing when listening to someone or taking advice from others. Very helpful, practical, and great information.

Ashlee is the REAL DEAL! She doesn’t try to act like she has it all together. She meets you right where you are with love, compassion and grace. Her heart for the Lord and people is so evident. If you are a mama, you NEED this encouragement in your life!!!!

KalieRDrake ¡ Mar 2026

Ashlee was the perfect host. She asked great questions and listened intently and followed up with more questions. She summarized and clarified what I was saying which proved to me she was listening. I enjoyed it immensely and hope to be back.
