Nehemiah E-Community Podcast

We are almost wrapping up the Proverbs 31 woman series. So far in this series, we have looked at the Proverbs 31 woman in terms of her character, her work ethic, and her spiritual life. This week, we will focus on her wisdom in decision-making.

This woman is often portrayed as being perfect and having it all together, but we know that decision-making is hard! On the podcast, Wendie and Debra discuss how the Proverbs 31 woman used wisdom in decision-making and how we can too.

The Proverbs 31 woman is known for being wise. In Proverbs 31:26, it says, "She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue." The Proverbs 31 woman is not only wise, but she is also kind. She uses her wisdom to make decisions that are not only in her own best interest but also in the best interest of others.

When it comes to decision-making, we often think about what is best for us in the short term. We may make a decision that will save us money in the short term, but end up costing us more in the long term. The Proverbs 31 woman is wise enough to think about the long-term implications of her decisions. She knows that making a decision based on what is best for her in the short term may not be best for her in the long term.

" We can't speak with wisdom and we cannot speak with kindness, the Lord's kindness, the Lord's love. If we are not, acknowledging Him and asking for His direction."

The Proverbs 31 woman knows that she needs to acknowledge the Lord in all her ways in order for Him to direct her path. She trusts in the Lord's wisdom and love and knows that He will always lead her on the right path.

And when it comes to decision-making, we need to do the same. We need to seek the Lord's wisdom and love, and trust that He will always lead us on the right path - even if it's not the path we originally planned on taking.

So, when you're facing a decision, big or small, ask yourself: "Is this decision based on what is best for me, or is it based on what is best for the Lord?"

If it's the latter, then you can be confident that you're making the right decision, even if it's not the easiest one. Because when we make decisions based on what is best for God, we know that He will always lead us on the right path. And that is a path worth taking.

Have you thought of multiplication as faithfulness to God, or of not multiplying (remaining stagnant) as laziness and wickedness? Has the perspective of passive income as a protective barrier crossed your mind? David Benham touches on these thoughts and more when he visits Patrice to discuss Passive Income and the coming Global Forum on Passive Income.

David is the other half of a twin-brother-duo known together as the Benham Brothers. David and Jason  Benham, are both former professional baseball players, nationally acclaimed entrepreneurs, best-selling authors, and Co-Founders of Expert Ownership.

Expert Ownership is a master coaching program for business owners, entrepreneurs, and organizational leaders. The program is designed to guide business owners and leaders from choppy waters of long, tedious hours manning their business or organization to the safe harbor of creating and living off passive income, freeing them to pursue their God-given passion and mission and make an impact for God’s glory.

In this podcast, David Benham only begins to scratch the surface of the wealth of knowledge he and his brother will be bringing as the featured speakers at the Thursday, September 29, 2022, Passive Income Global Forum. During the Passive Income Global Forum, you will hear how the Lord prepared the Benhams for such a time as this when in partnership with the Nehemiah Project, they are equipping the people of God to be faithful, cultivate the land and multiply.

You will also hear from other entrepreneurs, investment experts, and investors who are on the passive income journey to achieve true financial freedom. Other special guests will include,  Lee Escobar, Lonny and Sherri Hutchison, and Nina Hicks.

Wendie and Debra are back for this week's episode after they 'took a breath' last week to attend the launch of the new E-Community Launch in DFW. Trudy, the regional director for the new DFW E-Community center, was on the podcast two weeks ago and shared her vision and plans for the center. In case you missed it, watch it here or read the recap blog here.

This week's episode is all about the Proverbs 31 woman. What does it mean to be a woman clothed in beauty?

The world tells us that we need to look a certain way, dress a certain way, and wear our hair a certain way in order to be considered beautiful. However, to God, true beauty comes from the inside.

In this episode,  Wendie and Debra discuss what it means to be a Proverbs 31 woman clothed in beauty. They talk about how true beauty does not come from our outward appearance, but from our inward character.

The Proverbs 31 woman is a great example of an inner beauty that radiates to the outside. She is clothed in strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future.

So how can we as Christian women strive for this type of inner beauty?

Wendie and Debra share some helpful tips, such as

These are just a few of the ways that you can become a Proverbs 31 woman clothed in beauty, both inside and out.  So take the time to focus on your inner beauty today, and watch as it radiates to the outside for all the world to see.

When looking for your power suit, you need to ask yourself: "What is the thing that reminds you and fills you with that strength and confidence?"  It's different for everyone. Maybe it is a physical article of clothing, maybe it is your favorite color, or maybe it is something that you wear on the inside, like your wedding ring. Whatever it is, find that thing and wear it with pride.

Inner beauty is something that should be strived for by all Christian women. We should be confident in who we are and not strive to meet the world's standards of beauty. We need to be secure in our own skin and realize that our worth comes from Christ and not from our physical appearance.

The Biblical Entrepreneur's Journey to Sustain Freedom- EC Podcast: Host Tsague with Mr. Chartier.

Lonny and Sherri Hutchison are childhood sweethearts who grew up together, fell in love, got married, had children, built a business, and now enjoy the freedom of living on their passive income. Lonny and Sherri join Patrice in this podcast to discuss their spell-binding journey to financial freedom, and it is one that you will not want to miss.

From the humble beginnings of graduating high school into a blue-collar job, Lonny shares how he realized he had nothing to lose by being the owner of the business he worked in. He started taking contracts and slowly built clients to the point where he employed a dozen people. Sherri worked the business systems side while he grew the technical side till the business hit the ceiling and they needed to pivot to remain sustainable.

The couple made a few mistakes along the way, and God, in His providence, brought them to Nehemiah Project International Ministries, where they started coaching with Patrice Tsague. After some very difficult choices to the point of giving up their business, the Lord opened doors that have ushered the Hutchisons to the position today where they are the catalysts of Nehemiah Project's new initiative on Passive Income! Lonny points to complete surrender to the Lord and submission to Godly coaching as the reasons why they are where they are today. You'll be glad you listened to this podcast.

Experience Lonny and Sherri live on Thursday, September 29, 2023, at the Passive Income Global Forum. Passionate about impacting the Nehemiah community with training and coaching on the principles of financial freedom, Lonny and Sherri will share their personal testimony and insights on building sustainable passive income and achieving true financial freedom.

As we continue on the topic of "The Proverbs 31 Woman", a literal Modern Proverbs 31 woman Joan T Randall joins Wendie and Debra for this episode.

Joan is an award-winning best-selling author, international speaker, business coach, and independent publisher. And she was one of the judges for The International Business Plan Competition.

Joan shares her amazing journey and talks about the abuse she went through in her marriage and how she overcame it to be the successful woman she is today. She says "partner, plan, and prepare" are the three Ps that helped her get out of her abusive marriage and start a new life.

Partnering is necessary because when you try to do it all alone, it's just too hard. Women and men alike going through abuse need to have a solid support system. Partner with a friend, a spiritual mentor, and most importantly with God.

Planning is the second "P" and is also crucial. You need to have a plan for your life and your future. You need to know where you're going and how you're going to get there. And preparing is key because you need to be ready for whatever might come your way.

Joan's story is one of inspiration, courage, and hope. She is an amazing example of what a Proverbs 31 woman looks like in today's world. She reminds us that the Modern Proverbs 31 woman is not perfect, but we should strive to be the best that we can be.

"...we may not have every single characteristic, but if we show up as our authentic self and be the best version of who God calls us to be, then we are modeling aspects of the Proverbs 31 woman!"
