We often view seasons of loneliness and pain as a problem that needs to be avoided at all costs.  In this episode Leslie reminds us what those seasons can become - an opportunity to grow closer to Christ than we ever thought possible. Leslie unpacks the reality that Jesus is not a distant King who can’t relate to our struggles or meet our deepest needs, but the perfect fulfillment of every longing within our heart, and offers practical suggestions for drawing near to Him during seasons of aloneness and heartache. And remember - only a few weeks left to register for our 2022 Set Apart Conference!  Join us in person (only a handful of spots are left for CO) or via simulcast anywhere you are, and gain access to the session for the rest of this year.  Learn more and register here: https://setapartgirl.com/2022-set-apart-conference/

Most Asked Questions: How Do I Overcome Fear?

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series this week with a deep dive into the question "Why does it seem like women's ministries are often shallow?"  In this episode, Leslie unpacks some of the key reasons why many Christian leaders are choosing an easy, watered-down Gospel when it comes to women's ministry, and shows us how our own passionate pursuit of Jesus Christ can have a positive impact upon this modern-day trend.  It won’t be chick flicks, spa parties, or shallow feel-good messages that will change a woman’s life and awaken her heart to the Gospel. It will be the pure, uncompromising, timeless Truth of Jesus Christ.  This episode reminds us not to settle for shallow when it comes to our spiritual lives, and offers practical ways we can influence the women around us to go after more of Jesus.

Most Asked Questions: Why do women's ministries seem shallow?

Leslie continues her Most Asked Questions series with a Biblical look at responding to manipulative people.  Many women struggle with feeling controlled or strongly influenced by manipulative friendships, and it can be confusing to know how to respond to this challenge in a healthy and Christ-centered way.  As Christians, we are to be controlled only by the Spirit of  God, rather than by human manipulation.  In this episode, Leslie shares three Biblical keys to becoming set free from manipulation.  If you have struggled with being manipulated, you will be amazed and the freedom and joy you find once you allow God to remove the unhealthy control of others over your life, so that you can make yourself completely and fully available to Him.

Most asked Questions: How should I handle manipulative people?

Is it possible to be healthy and balanced in both family and ministry? While ministry is a wonderful way to showcase Christ’s love to others, the enemy can often use our good intentions to serve others as bait for stress, chaos and overcommitment. Many Christians who start enthusiastically in ministry end up in a place of burn out and disillusionment as time goes on. In this episode, Leslie draws from her own ministry experience to share key Biblical principles that can help us approach ministry in a healthy and Christ-centered way. She offers insights into how to balance ministry with other responsibilities such as family relationships, and gives practical suggestions for avoiding ministry burnout.  This episode casts a vision for ministry that goes the distance. To learn more about our 2024 Ellerslie Discipleship programs, visit https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/.
