Significant Life

How do you take steps of boldness when doors unexpectedly close? How do we trust God? How do we hear Him? These are the questions Jen tackles with special guest, Elyse Murphy (@elyse).

Elyse is a writer, speaker, and influencer who is committed to using her platform to have authentic conversations and help women shake off shame and step into their God-given light. She’s an over-sharer and a people pleaser and will probably get distracted mid-conversation, but she’s doing her best to live a healthy life (body, soul, and spirit) and point them to Jesus... And she’s ok if that’s a little bit messy. In fact, she kind of likes it messy.

Elyse has written devotionals such as “For God So Loved” and “Into The New,” along with many others, and is obsessed with breaking down spiritual truths in simple and relatable ways. In 2021, she co-founded ClubDevotion with her best friend Katy Knox, because they decided to create what they couldn’t find -- a place where biblical faith and best friends meet.

ClubDevotion is a global community of women who are committed to living a lifestyle of devotion, and the membership includes regular meetings, monthly devotionals (written by Elyse), weekly live coaching calls, daily voice prompts, and more… But it’s more than a membership. It’s a movement of women who are ready to find their feet and use their voice, just like God intended.

Elyse also coaches women on a regular basis, and it led her to create Breakthrough Bootcamp -- a six week program for women to get unstuck, shake off shame, and go deeper with God. Enrollments for the Fall 2022 intake are opening soon.

As she’s continued to do what she’s always done, inspire people in their life and challenge them in their faith, her influence has expanded into faith-based media. She is the co-producer and host of “On A Lighter Note” with Lightworkers, and works with media outlets to create content that will help people find hope and have honest conversations about faith, health, and relationships.

Shame is a major force of resistance in our lives. We all endure challenges, obstacles, set-backs, delays, even injuries--and SHAME tells us we are stuck there. How do we refuse to stay stuck in our shame? And how do we take steps to move through that resistance into the purposes God has for us? That’s our topic this week: How to Say NO to Shame.
