Crisis Happens: How to Prepare Your Home, Heart, and Mind
Crisis doesn’t always make the evening news—sometimes it’s a phone call that flips your world in a moment. In this powerful episode, Coach Leah shares a personal story of her husband’s car accident the night before Thanksgiving and walks wives and moms through a practical, faith-filled framework for navigating crisis. You’ll learn what to get in order before a storm hits, how to steady your mindset when fear tries to take over, the role of community when you need backup, and how faith anchors you from panic to peace.
Grab the free Crisis Management Checklist below and start preparing this week.
Key Takeaways- Preparation protects peace. Wills, insurance, and organized documents don’t remove pain—but they prevent added crisis.
- Mindset sets the temperature. Panic paralyzes; clarity directs. Your calm cues your family’s calm.
- Community is a God tool. Don’t isolate. Identify and activate your 2 a.m. circle.
- Faith anchors outcomes. Trust God’s presence whether the outcome is what you prayed for or not—“God is able, and even if He doesn’t, I’ll still trust Him.”
Scripture Highlights
- Romans 8:28 — All things work together for good…
- Daniel 3:17–18 — Our God is able…but even if He doesn’t…
- Acts 16:25–26 — Praise at midnight breaks chains.
