Episode Synopsis



In this episode of The Unsidelined Life, Eileen Noyes continues her teaching on Proverbs 31:4 about kings not guzzling wine by showing listeners exactly how she breaks down Bible verses to make it practical and applicable. As a mother who's navigated eight kids through divorce, cult situations, and rebuilding life, Eileen shares the five specific questions she asks when approaching Scripture: Who is God talking to? What are the physical implications? Why would someone do this? What example am I setting? Am I above reproach? She gets vulnerable about conversations with her 21-year-old son who wanted to drink after turning legal age, explaining how she guided him to his own conviction rather than forcing rules on him. Eileen addresses why she chooses not to drink even though it's permissible, breaking down whether alcohol is being used as a crutch for stress or socializing, and why leaders need clear judgment. She also tackles the "family devoted woman" lie that makes mothers think denying themselves means total neglect and burnout, explaining why the oxygen mask principle matters and how being stuck in your wounds prevents people from receiving the gifts God gave you to share.Discover the five questions that transform Bible reading into practical wisdom you can teach your kids and apply to every decision.
