Some women set New Year's resolutions every January 1st, while others set goals. Some do it at the end of the year in preparation for the new year, while others choose to set goals throughout the year. Many create quarterly objectives.

It is a familiar experience for many of us to feel our initial enthusiasm for our goals fade over time. This is a shared struggle, not unique to any one of us. Regardless of gender, we all find it challenging to sustain our resolutions or goals.

Does no one want positive change in their lives? 

Of course. Our deep desire for positive transformation in our lives is a common thread that binds us. The issue is not a lack of desire, but often the need for enhanced diligence and commitment.

Often, what is needed is a boost in our diligence, a quality we all possess and can enhance.

Is this not also true of our very faith in Christ? 

If women are not diligent in keeping our eyes on Jesus, we easily grow tired of doing the right thing and f...

In a world where consumerism is rampant and debt often feels inevitable, the concept of financial stewardship can serve as a powerful antidote. But what exactly is financial stewardship, and how can it transform your financial life? Let’s explore.

What is Financial Stewardship?

Financial stewardship is the responsible management of the financial resources God entrusted you with. It is not just about budgeting or saving but about viewing money as a tool you temporarily manage. Whether you have a little or a lot, financial stewardship involves making decisions that align with your values, goals, and the needs of those you care for.

Why is Financial Stewardship Important?

1. Long-Term Stability: Effective financial stewardship helps ensure that you and your family have the resources needed for the future. It’s about creating a sustainable financial plan considering immediate needs and long-term goals.
2. Freedom from Debt: Many people live with the stress of overwhelming debt. By embraci...

Women all have things that happen in their lives that cause them to lose hope. It could be losing a job or not getting the promotion they were anticipating. You may have to move away from family and friends to start in a new home.

When a cherished dream dissipates, have faith that God has a fresh dream in store for you:

• A different path
• A new journey
• A new calling
• A powerful message
• A renewed passion

Even in the face of your loss, trust that God, the ultimate comforter, can alleviate your pain and develop something innovative within and through you.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 KJV - "For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are ...

When feeling anxious, it is common to experience Automatic Negative Thoughts (ANTs), which can make your thoughts and emotions feel out of control. ANTs tend to be negative, inaccurate, and filled with fear and worry. It is important to counter these thoughts with the truth.

Managing your anxiety can be achieved by controlling your thoughts. Your thoughts act like a conductor, directing the orchestra of your emotions. Interestingly, one of the ways God transforms us is by guiding us toward changing our thoughts.

The Bible says, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” (Romans 12:2 KJV). The apostle Paul saw the benefit of this.

In Philippians 4:6-7, Paul advises the Philippians to refrain from feeling anxious, then shifts focus to their thoughts.

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, w...

Beloved sister, Christian Life Coaching for women is the quiet table where holy desire meets holy order—where we “sit down first, and count the cost” (Luke 14:28, KJV) and then rise to build with peace. In this blog, we step out of Lie-Locked Living—the whispers that say I am empty, unseen, finished—and into a Truth Mindset that thinks with Scripture until the heart agrees with God.

Under the wings of the Lord (Ruth 2:12, KJV), we will watch Ruth’s steady obedience become our pattern: humble steps, timely counsel, and faithful work. With my T.O.W.E.R. Framework—Target the Aim, Outline Resources, Write Milestones, Establish Boundaries, Review and Rejoice—Life Coaching turns grace-filled intention into dated steps you can finish, so your days gather clarity, your pace keeps its peace, and your labor bears lasting fruit.

A Biblical Case Study — Ruth: Beginning Again With Holy Order

As we enter the new year of 2023, it is the perfect time to reflect on our spiritual journey and set new goals that draw us closer to God. The beginning of a new year offers a fresh start and a renewed sense of purpose. As Christian women, it is essential to prioritize spiritual growth and intentionally seek ways to strengthen our relationship with Christ. Setting spiritual goals is not just about doing more but about aligning our hearts, minds, and lives with God’s will.

The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 16:9 (KJV), "A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps." As we create plans and set goals for the year, we must first seek God’s guidance, trusting Him to lead us in the right direction. When we commit our spiritual goals to Him, we place our faith in His ability to direct our paths toward fulfillment and peace.

Christmas is a profoundly spiritual celebration for Christians around the world. While it is often associated with gifts, festive gatherings, and beautiful decorations, the true essence of the season transcends the physical. Christmas celebrates the birth of Baby Christ—the world's Savior. It is a reminder of God's great love for humanity, a divine plan that unfolded in a humble manger in Bethlehem over two thousand years ago.

The Incarnation: God With Us

At the core of the Christian spirituality of Christmas is the doctrine of the Incarnation—God becoming man in the person of Jesus Christ. As foretold in the Old Testament, the birth of Baby Christ fulfilled God’s promise to redeem His people. Isaiah 7:14 prophesied, “Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel,” which means "God with us." The miracle of Christmas is that the Creator of the universe chose to step into human history, not in a palace but in a stable, to be with us and to offer s...

 Like many of us, my client Barbara struggled with prayer for years. She longed to be close to God, to hear His voice, and to walk with Him as others did. But when it came to prayer, she felt awkward and unsure what to say.

During our coaching session, I encouraged her to spend fifteen minutes a day trying to pray. I explained, "It feels awkward because God is a stranger to you. You have heard about Him. And you have accepted Jesus. But you do not truly have a relationship with Him...yet."

Many women are like Barbara. They want to develop a relationship with God but struggle with prayer. It might be helpful to consider your early prayers a "blind date." Naturally, you will feel awkward—you do not know God yet. Not personally.

When we persist through the initial awkwardness and continue to 'meet' for regular 'dates' (i.e., prayer time), we will cultivate a relationship—a profound, enduring relationship with God that will carry us through life's trials. This relationship will ...

One definition of failure is a lack of success in accomplishing something or coming short of a performance standard we or others have set. Disappointment is the sense of unhappiness and frustration resulting from the failure. These feelings can stem from our failures, the failures of others, or both. What does the Bible teach us about failure and disappointment? How should women respond to disappointments?

Scripture's consistent message is that failure and disappointment are inescapable parts of the human experience. Biblical examples of failure expose the painful disappointment that follows in its course: disappointment with self, others, and even God. One of the challenges with the constant victory narratives we are fed today is the message that triumph is for everyone and that everyone will be a winner. The result is that no one is prepared when victory is slow to visit and when failure knocks at their door, sometimes repeatedly.

Wisdom from disappointments can boost your...

We need to humble ourselves before god, and He will honor us. This humbleness does not mean that Christians should carry the burden of low self-esteem. Learning from successes can boost your self-esteem. You learn more about yourself and your strengths. Everyone excels in at least one area, and often in more than one. A Spiritual Gifts Assessment helps you understand your God-given talents. This can help you understand where your best skills lie. You should then do activities that empower you to take advantage of those proven abilities more often.

^“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” – James 1:17 KJV

If you do something well, you feel a sense of accomplishment. Your confidence surges because you were able to achieve something that either helped you or helped others. In many cases, you were the best choice for the task and were more easily able to achieve ...
