Ever pondered about the power and significance of women in biblical history? As I recount my enlightening experience at the Joyce Meyer Love Life 2023 conference, I am thrilled to share the potent message delivered by Lisa Bevere. The message, centering around the strategic roles held by women within the biblical narrative, is an affirmation of purpose and a call to action for all, but especially for women. Her words serve as a reminder of the importance of women in the grand scheme of things, their value, and their potential. 

Switching gears, we navigate the terrains of the Christian blogging community, focusing predominantly on the female demography. Intriguingly, there are more female bloggers yet fewer successful ones compared to their male counterparts. We delve into potential reasons and explore how viewing blogging as more than a hobby can bring about a shift. From the significant roles women have played throughout biblical history to their standing in today's Christian blogging community, this episode is a rich blend of empowerment, inspiration, and a call to action. Join us on this journey, as we take a step back to move many steps forward.

Do you ever feel like a fraud in the realm of Christian blogging? I've been there too. This episode uncovers the widespread issue of imposter syndrome among Christian bloggers, a struggle I personally navigated on my journey in starting the Kingdom Bloggers Ministry. I'll share my story of starting a ministry with a limited understanding of prayer and scripture, revealing how God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. 

Let's dive into a powerful conversation about how Jesus' selection of his disciples - social outcasts who had no theological education - reinforces that we don't need to be perfect or highly qualified to share His word. I'll also share my personal experience with overcoming the seeds of doubt planted by the enemy and how I found confidence through faith. The focus in this episode is not about being called by God because you are qualified but being qualified because you are called. So, if you've been feeling inadequate or unqualified, tune in to discover the transformative power of obedience and get the inspiration you need to say "yes" to God's plan, regardless of your perceived limitations.

Are you feeling 'not pretty enough' to be an influencer in the digital space? Is this lie holding you back from fully stepping into the ministry God has called you to? We're here to debunk this myth, and remind you that true beauty comes from being created in God's image. We unravel the damaging lie that Satan uses to keep us from fulfilling our divine purpose and discuss the importance of being vulnerable and stepping out of your comfort zone. As Christian women, it's vital for us to live out the values we write about and encourage others to do the same.

Let's address an issue that has kept many Christian women from realizing their potential - the lie that if we don't meet society's standards of beauty, we can't be influencers in the digital world. This mindset not only hinders us from influencing others but also prevents us from carrying out God's call in our lives. So, let's step out and be bold. Let's show the world that our beauty is not defined by worldly standards but by the fact that we are created in God's image. Join us as we walk together in this journey of breaking free from societal pressures and confidently stepping into what God has called us to do.
