She Connects

Over the years, we've seen various new methods claiming to offer people things to better their lives. While they appear innocent, harmless, and nothing to be concerned about, these methods have origins that do not align with the Christian faith. 

We must use wisdom and discernment when considering these and other methods as part of our daily lives.

This week starts episodes I feel led to discuss - topics we don't hear much about nowadays. As always, I want to encourage you as a friend would.

In this episode, I want to encourage emerging leaders stepping into ministry to take the time to develop the gifts lying within them. I also want to encourage seasoned ministry leaders to remember the importance of mentoring and discipleship of emerging leaders.

Here we go, ladies! This week, my friend, Kristin Kurtz, joins us to have an honest conversation about hustle culture. If you know me well, you know I am not a fan of hustle culture as I don't believe God created us to take life's corners on two wheels!

We're excited you're here for this conversation and it is our hope it will help equip you and bring freedom to any area of your life that hustle culture tries to influence.

What joy to have my friend Cassy on the show to talk about motherhood! We believe this conversation will encourage moms in any season. May you be reminded today that your role as mom is so valuable and we "see" you!

Cassy is a pastor’s wife, a mom of three, and a children’s ministry director. She and her family have been residents of Minnesota since May 2023, when the Lord launched them into full-time ministry at Lighthouse Christian Church, Rosemount, MN. That is when Cassy's career as a full-time SAHM began. As a graduate of Cincinnati Christian University and a former youth pastor, Cassy's passion is to make theology relevant and understandable for all ages so that Jesus gets the awe and wonder He deserves!

This week, we're taking a brief break in the leadership series to hear from Tom and Jill Vandenheuvel. They join me on the show to share a little of their testimony and encouragement for anyone during a challenging season.

We are honored to have them with us at the She Rises Women's Conference in May where they will share their story of victory more in-depth. If you or someone you know needs to hear a faith-filled testimony of coming out of a dark valley, this is your opportunity! Knowing Tom and Jill, and their story, I highly encourage you to register today!

Tom and Jill, lovers of Jesus, have been married for 33 years. Together, they have 3 children and 5 grandsons - Amy (Tyler) - Payten, Ian, Charlie, Reggie, Tyler (Kylie) - Judah, and Amanda. They reside in southern Minnesota.

This week, we're talking about something I am very passionate about - purpose! While recording this episode, I think I could have run a lap around my house!

Sister, you are significant to the Kingdom of God! You were created with and for a purpose! It is my deepest desire that as you tune in you will hear His heart and be awakened to purpose!

We are expectant for the upcoming She Rises Women's Conference and cannot wait to meet you and together, worship King Jesus!

This week's episode has been stirring in Susan's heart for a while now. She wants to champion faith leaders, regardless of where or how they're leading, to stay with the unfiltered Word of God.

Her heart is for the Church to impact the world and to stay free from a performance mentality because it is God's presence that we are called to pursue most.
