Starting Conversations
James 1:2 (NLV) Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. Is there any greater joy than looking back and seeing your troubles behind you? Where does the joy come from? Is it knowing it's over? Also, what do you do with the knowledge you have gained from life's storms? Let's talk about what happened and how it affected you. Let's speak about what lessons we learned. How can we avoid or prepare for what's to come, or what will come back again? Afterward, did you keep it to yourself? Did you praise God by sharing your hardship to bring joy? As we grow with Christ, talking, laughing, and praying make life easier as we live as "We Own It" and let every lesson "Humble Us for Life."

We've been exploring how to embrace leadership as we walk this life journey. So today, let's look at how we actually find it within ourselves.
Intimate courage isn't always found in front of others or through a bold public conversation. Making a bold declaration doesn't mean you've got it all figured out. Honestly, phrases like "tell it like it is" or "I said what I said" can sometimes be more hype than help. They sound strong in t...
"You want to be the boss? You have to pay the cost."
I heard that as a kid — on TV, in movies, in church. It's one of those lines that gets said so often it almost becomes background noise. But sit with it for a second, and it starts to ask you something.
Being a leader and being a child of God. Holding any leadership position — are you willing to give up relationships? Friends? Mo...
Are you still waiting for permission to be who you already are?
God created you and me as unique beings with an assignment, even before we could see the hills we'd have to climb. We were created for His glory — created to be intentional in what we do.
Ephesians 2:10 says: "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
Psalm 30:2
Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.
How many times have you gotten more than you expected from God and given little to nothing back in return to Him? Is God our help in the services we begged for, or our healer through the services he chose to render? When we ask for his help, are we really asking for his healing? Let's explore our favor with God as we talk t...John 14:27 Peace, I leave with you; my peace I give you.
Having peace in our lives means bringing pieces of our lives together with the help of the Almighty.
Ecclesiastes 9:11
Nor the battle to the strong,
Are you God's strongest warrior? Do you wish he would pick somebody else? Let's talk about being battle ready.
How can you start conversations about you as a young single mother in the Church? Does God see those running after his heart with a child on their hip?
Learning how to build a relationship with God is not easy when you are not sure where to start. Do you speak to God?
Finding the majesty view while climbing in and out of uncommon situations. Learning to stand with our whole body down on the word in us, knowing the word saves us.
God controls the universe, and every event has a divine purpose. How does this teach us to inspire, influence, and direct our minds to the one above? Who can bring comfort and keep us in our time of deep guilt and sorrow?
God's hands are on every part of our lives, even in the worst-case scenario. Trauma has a way of making us feel that we must keep it packed up and tucked away. We must understand what that does to the human heart that belongs to God.
Trusting God takes everything we have. It takes letting go of what has happened, knowing God has grown you and has more for you, and knowing peace is within our grasp when we let go.
Job 22: 21
2 Timothy 2:13 says," If we are faithless, he remains faithful," yet we forget how faithful the Lord is because we define our failures by our failures. How can we begin to be people of little faith? How can we become people that live to see what God can do, and not people who forget what God has done?
Am I living as a survivor and sleeping as a victim?
Psalm 10:14
