In Scripture, stillness is often where strength is formed. Jesus withdrew to quiet places to pray. Elijah heard God not in the wind or the fire, but in a gentle whisper.


Hey, y'all! I'm Susannah B. Lewis-- and I'm recording this podcast in my closet. Literally.
Because it's the quietest place in my home. It is my sanctuary. My steady place.


This closet holds what I wear to face the world, but it also holds what no one else sees.

I've stood in here picking myself apart. I've fallen to my knees in prayer. Cried. Surrendered. In this closet, I've eaten chocolate I didn't want to share. I've walked in overwhelmed and walked out restored.

Behind the Closet Door is a weekly podcast for women who feel stretched thin, emotionally scattered or just plain tired-- and who need scriptural steadiness in the middle of real life.

Every Tuesday, we close the door on the noise...

and open our hearts to Him.

Shut the door and come on in.

  • Not Everyone Is For You
    Mar 24 2026

    Some friendships are for a season, some for a reason—and some are worth walking away from. How do you spot the toxic ones, set healthy boundaries, and love with wisdom—without guilt?

    Discover the surprising truth: protecting your heart is an act of obedience, not a failure to love. You'll explore God’s example of boundaries through Jesus’ ministry—how he knew who to trust and when to slip away for prayer.

    Susannah breaks down key insights from Proverbs on cautious companionship, Romans on loving enemies, and the story of Demas—reminding us that faithfulness requires endurance and discernment.

    If you’ve ever felt drained by toxic friendships or questioned whether to cut ties, this episode is your spiritual toolkit for clarity and courage.

  • Don't Worry About a Thing
    Mar 17 2026

    In this episode, Susannah B. Lewis explores how worry rooted in fear subtly challenges God's goodness and sovereignty, turning mental rehearsals into spiritual pride, and how biblical faith provides a confident alternative.

    Discover why Scripture consistently links worry to a divided heart and how Jesus' words in Matthew 6 cut straight to the core of what it means to truly trust God. You'll hear stories from real-life moments—like a dog trembling in pain or a child's innocent "what if"—that reveal how worry often starts small but grows into something far bigger.

    Susannah highlights the transformative power of prayer, gratitude, and calling on the name of Jesus in moments of distress, reminding us that God's presence is the ultimate antidote to fear.
