In this episode, I'm giving you a run-down of when and how I was called by God to vocational ministry, what my journey has looked like, and how that led to the creation of my new self-funded ministry, Content for Christ. Come join me!

Last week was tragic and heartbreaking. In this episode, I share my thoughts on all of what happened and where I think we, as Christians, go from here.

In this episode, I'm diving into a personal struggle I've been dealing with lately: What happens when the thing I've been called to do becomes an obsession, even an idol? 

Maybe you can relate. If so, listen to find out what I'm doing to continue being obedient to God without letting the results of that obedience consume my every thought. 

You know you have a calling from God, and you have a pretty good idea what that is. Now what? In this episode, we talk about a simple process for getting started following your God-given dreams.

Ever wondered what your specific calling is? In this episode, you'll learn 6 tips for diving in and figuring out God's plan for your life.  

Have you ever wondered what your purpose in life is? How about your calling? Wait...aren't those the same thing? Not exactly.

We all sometimes struggle with seeing how God's working in our lives. It can often seem like He's being silent, like maybe he doesn't even care about what we're going through. We know that's not true, but how can we combat those feelings?

In this episode, I'm talking about what it looks like to truly trust God and surrender to Him, and how I do those things in a real way in my everyday life.

If you've been longing to experience God's faithfulness, these 5 steps can help! 

Note: This episode was recorded several months before it was published, so the story I tell from my life is a little outdated, but I believe it has value and can still be an encouragement to you. 

Have you ever prayed for something for a really long time, hoped for it, even thought God was promising it to you...only for the door to be slammed in your face or the thing to be yanked away?

That's what we're talking about in this eposide. We dive deep into the pain, frustration, and even anger that can overwhelm us when God answers our prayers with a firm "no."

Believe it or not, God can use these situations to grow our faith and trust in Him and to turn us into the people He's called us to be.

Discover the steps you can take to keep from spiraling or throwing in the towel when things don't go your way.

Oh, and learn all about (probably more than you want to know!) the book publishing industry and my career history and setbacks.

Warning: I get really vulnerable in this episode and might even get a little choked up. If that makes you uncomfortable, you might want to skip the middle. ;)

We all face discouragment, disappointment, pain, and suffering in our lives. So how do we keep being obedient servants of God and steward well the resources, family, and talents he's given us - even in the bad times?

Do you have a habit of compartmentalizing your life? Me, too.

But, as Christian women - especially Christian moms or women in business - we shouldn't keep God confined to just one area of our life.

How do your spiritual gifts and natural talents and abilities fit into your work? And how can you use them to glorify God?

In this episode, I'm answering those questions and diving into what it looks like (in a real, tactical way) to bring God into your work...whatever "work" means for you.
