In this episode, Christine Caine welcomes Katie Modrau, country manager for A21 South Africa. Katie’s story is one of needing to lead and pilot in areas where she was young and underqualified. “Don’t fake it ‘til you make it,” advises Katie, “but learn where your limitations are.” Christine and Katie encourage us to trust that God has put us in the places he has, while remembering it’s our responsibility to learn, grow, and improve our skills in order to steward those opportunities well. Listen in as Katie shares the sobering reality of A21’s work in South Africa and be reminded that God has you where you are for a reason and that no matter how underqualified you feel, you can learn and grow as you lead.
Show Notes:
Remain flexible
Katie had plans to pursue a career in Occupational Therapy, but her life was irrevocably changed when she heard about human trafficking. Even when you feel underqualified and inexperienced, you can move forward and steward God’s opportunities.
Learn Your Limits
Leaders often have to pioneer new things, which means needing to grow and learn on the job, knowing our limits and being honest about them. God uses life experiences to equip us so we can equip others and be patient as they are learning.
Learn as You Go
Katie encourages us to put in the work to develop skills to steward our opportunities well. Faith doesn’t just mean “winging it.” We need to commit to developing strengths and skills for the tasks God has given us.
Leading a Tired Team
To ensure her workers can go the distance, Katie puts practices in place like vacation time and counseling opportunities, but reminds us that each person is responsible to implement those. We are responsible for implementing our own boundaries in the ebb and flow of life’s challenges.

Propel Women is an initiative of Equip & Empower Ministries founded by Christine Caine.
We EMPOWER women with biblical wisdom and encouragement, EQUIP women with practical training and education, and MOBILIZE women by providing hands-on leadership opportunities.
No matter where a woman has influence – in an office, in her community, at home with her family, or in ministry – Propel is driven by a calling to equip and mobilize women to become effective co-laborers with Christ and make a difference within their unique spheres of influence.
In this episode, our host, Christine Caine, welcomes Rev. Dr. Nicole Martin, Chief Impact Officer with Christianity Today. Nicole shares how God has used her education, experiences (both successes and disappointments), and the direction of the Spirit to equip her to live and lead with discernment at home and in the workplace. It’s not just one part of us that God calls to follow him, rather it’s our whole person. Nicole will encourage you today to bring your whole self into every space and place God leads you.
Show Notes:
God’s Detours
In many of the disappointing “side” routes she has faced, Nicole says God has been actively detouring her so that He could sharpen her skills or show her new things He had for her. What divine detours might God be leading you on?
A Seat at the Table
Nicole recalls, “when you get to the table, it’s your job to speak up for who’s not there.” We all have a role in creating pathways for other leaders and voices that are noticeably not present.
Bring Your Whole Self
“Code-switching” and having to adapt yourself to new environments is exhausting. Nicole shares how discernment is learning to “listen to the Holy Spirit to know when it’s time to pull back or push forward,” not because you’re too much or not enough, “but because you’re waiting for the appointed time.”
Do What Only you can do
Our bodies are one way God signals to us that we have limits. If we’re overwhelmed, Nicole suggests it may be time for us to be discerning about what needs to change. Christine shares that none of us can do it all, and we can practice accepting help from others where it’s available, so that we are able to prioritize the relationships and tasks that only we can do.

Today on the podcast, Lisa Harper is back and, amidst so many laughs – of course, she and Christine Caine give a behind-the-scenes exclusive look at the creation and purpose of their new 4-week Bible Study and video series The Marvel and Miracle of Advent. For many of us, we’ve heard all about Christmas and the birth of Jesus, but not about Advent. As Christine and Lisa share, you will be encouraged to explore Advent and recapture the wonder of Jesus living among us during the approaching holiday season.
SHOW NOTES:
What is Advent?
Advent is the oldest and best story of God’s arrival and its implicit rescue: as J.I. Packer wrote: “Nothing in fiction is more fantastic than the incarnation.”
Why focus on Advent?
Advent rekindles our awe and wonder, and gets us ready to reengage a hurting world with hope. As Christine explains, Advent activates us: “Activation is an inherent part of preparation.”
Hope for a Hurting World
Our world is hurting, and needs those who love Jesus to shepherd people through pain well. As Lisa says, “Jesus doesn’t say he’ll take the pain away; he says He’ll be present with us in it.” The message of Advent grounds us in real hope as we face the future.

Have you ever had your plans completely derailed by God? Today on the podcast, Christine Caine’s dear friend, Rachel Aguirre, discusses her call to Wall Street and how she uses her position to point others to Christ. If you’re in a difficult season of balancing marriage, motherhood, and career, or struggling to find Kingdom purpose in a marketplace position, Rachel has some wisdom and experience for you to glean from today.
SHOW NOTES:
Life Ministry
Rachel views every commitment and responsibility as ministry and lives out the gospel with everyone she encounters.
Marketplace Ministry
Rachel remarks that Jesus:
1. Spent time with people,
2. Was continually moved with compassion,
3. Met people’s needs.
She encourages us to follow his example in our areas of life.
Treasures Through Trails
When walking through difficult situations, God walked Rachel through the trial rather than rescuing her from it. She encourages us that there is always something on the other side of our trials that is of great value.

In this episode, host Christine Caine is joined by Faith Mdhluli from South Africa. Faith holds degrees in Agricultural Engineering, Chemical Engineering, and Business Administration, and runs the Faithful Heart, Helpful Hands organization that provides opportunities for young girls from underperforming schools to learn and thrive. Faith encourages us today to live generously with what God has given us and lead with excellence in every space. Listen in as she shares how stepping out of your comfort zone makes space for God to move in big ways!
SHOW NOTES:
Living with Generosity
Faith learned generosity from her mother – what do others learn about generosity from you? “In every way I’ve shown you that it is necessary to help the weak by laboring like this and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, because he said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35
Blessing Others
Leadership is not about us, but about the people we are leading. Faith challenges us to steward the opportunities we are given and remarks that leadership is about serving others, how Jesus modeled.
Eyes Fixed on Jesus
If we know why God has placed us in our position, we can work with confidence that we are fulfilling his purpose. We are never tempted to cut corners or compromise when our eyes are fixed on Jesus.
Selfless Leadership
When leadership becomes self-serving it will hurt others rather than help them. We lead with excellence when we nurture those in our care with selflessness and love.

Today on the podcast, British author, speaker, and apologist, Amy Orr-Ewing, joins Christine Caine to discuss her leadership journey, and all the twists and turns that have come with it. While Amy’s journey is one filled with great challenges and disappointment in leaders, this conversation will encourage you to keep moving forward, not give up, and to keep your hope in Jesus when your trust in leadership is broken.
SHOW NOTES:
Leading with Courage
As Christians, Amy encourages us that we can live confidently knowing that God is going before us, he is who he says he is, and even when leaders fail us, he does not.
Opening Doors for Women
Amy says we’ve come a long way from the hostility she experienced starting out, but we still have a long way to go. She stands confident that the Word of God releases and empowers women to be witnesses, evangelists, and leaders.
Anchored in Christ
Amy’s newest book, Lead Like the Real You, unpacks her painful season in 2020 when disappointment in a leader shook her to the core. The Holy Spirit was faithful to rebuild her and used a dear friend to remind her that even Jesus was betrayed by Judas. Our faith and hope remain anchored in Jesus, not people.

Do you need God’s divine activity and power in your life? Today on the podcast, Christine Caine is joined by her good friend, Tara Beth Leach. Tara Beth is the senior pastor at Good Shepherd in Naperville, IL., co-founder of Propel Women Cohorts, an author, and a boy mom.

Listen in to discover the importance of staying connected to the Source, as well as practical ways to do so. Christine and Tara Beth bring some great tips in today’s episode – you don’t want to miss it!
SHOW NOTES:
The Main Thing
Our culture is full of distractions that can fill our minds with divisions, competition, comparison, and immorality. We need to remain connected to God, allowing his voice to be the loudest in our lives.
Listening to God
Tara Beth encourages us to hold a holy reverence that motivates obedience to God. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Proverbs 9:10.
Remaining Steadfast
Tara Beth shares 5 things that she’s doing to ensure she’s reaping a harvest later in life:
1. Connect with the Lord every morning and aim to abide in him all day.
2. Invest in your marriage.
3. Make friendships a priority.
4. Take care of your body through exercise.
5. Discover a meaningful hobby.

Today on the podcast, Christine Caine is joined by Rev. Dr. Kate Coleman, the founding director of Next Leadership. A trailblazer in ministry, Kate was the first accredited black female minister in Great Britain and served as the President of the Baptist Union in the UK from 2006-2007.

Listen in as Christine and Kate share how to cultivate continual transformation and make a lasting impact in your sphere of influence.
SHOW NOTES:
Women in Leadership
Kate shares her story of navigating denominational differences and how God grew her into a woman of bold faith and brave leadership.
Opposition in Leadership
Kate did not want to be a source of division, and her pastor spoke words that can encourage all of us today: “I think God has already spoken to you, and you don’t have the luxury of saying ‘no’ to God.”
Preparation in Leadership
Kate and Christine share a passion for continued growth, as both women have pursued continued education. Kate carries a doctoral degree and Christine obtained a masters. Their conversation will challenge you to continue going and growing in your leadership!
Metamorph
In her forthcoming book, Metamorph, Kate explains that we were made for continual transformation, growth, and development. It’s important not to take yourself too seriously or think you’re the one achieving success, especially when you get to high levels of leadership.
