RISE UP! In Leadership Part 2

***Hey Friends. While I’m on a bit of  a blogging break this week I thought I’d share some links to a few guest posts I did through out this past summer. I had the privledge of writing for some awesome ministries and I know you will love clicking around their sites!***

This one is from the site Gifted For Leadership. I posted part 1 yesterday so be sure to check that blog out!

RISE UP! What Leaders Need From Young Women

As I mentioned in my previous post on Gifted for Leadership there’s a movement rising up within this generation of young adults. Among these young people are committed Christians who are determined to remain faithful to Jesus and make a positive difference among their peers. Not all of us know what this movement is calling us to do, but we do know we have an itch to participate.

I would like you to meet my small group of young women leaders. We’ve all stepped into various roles in our respective communities, given the call on our lives to rise up and make Jesus famous. Stephanie followed God’s direction and uses her communication skills to mentor and speak truth to teen girls. Nicole loves pouring into lives of abused women, and her sweet spirit is like a balm of comfort to broken people. Lindsey desires to increase her in-depth knowledge of the Bible and attends seminary full-time. We are a band of women, part of a greater movement.

This common itch to rise up as leaders and servants strengthens our bonds as we encourage and exhort each other. Ministry is tough. We need each other. We also need to cling tightly to those leaders––those women––who have paved the way for us to rise up. We face some cross-generational challenges, yes, but we must not let this deter us from the ultimate goal….

Rise Up! In Leadership

Hey Friends. While I’m on a bit of  a blogging break this week I thought I’d share some links to a few guest posts I did through out this past summer. I had the privilege of writing for some awesome ministries and I know you will love clicking around their sites!

 

This One is from the site Gifted For Leadership. I will post part 2 tomorrow.

RISE UP! Part 1: What Young Women Need From Their Leaders

When you look at statistics about young adults, their faith, and the church, well, they don’t look pretty. More and more 20- and 30somethings are walking away from the faith of their childhood simply because they’ve yet to make it their own.

But there is a remnant––similar to Daniel and his young friends in Babylon––who desire to rise up and make Jesus famous in every part of life. This remnant includes young women with a fiery passion to take on leadership roles and make a difference. Though the risk of a fiery furnace now looks more like the darts and bullets of cultural temptations, these women are ready and willing to do life differently than their young adult counterparts both in and outside the church.

These young women need support and training we can offer them. More specifically, here’s what young women need from their leaders…

Please know that though our Stress Point online summer study is “officially” over, it is NOT OVER. Take your time and work through the chapters. Take your time to really sit and have some meaningful conversations with Jesus and then come back here to LIVE IT OUT! and let me know how He is speaking to you. You have no idea how much it THRILLS me to see that you are living out the Kingship of Christ in all your stress points.

 

REMEMBER: The archives of the Stress Point Online Study will be in the pink navigation bar above under Stress Point. YOu can always click there to catch up on chapters, etc.

I want to encourage you to not skip the last conclusion chapter of Stress Point. I wrote it to give you a way to reflect and recount ways that God spoke to you through this book. It can even be a place to check back in later one when you need a reminder of how Jesus is your King of Kings and Lord of Lords with your money, your career, your love life, etc. So…pinky swear to me that you will do the conclusion…ok??

Next week I am taking a bit of a blogging break BUT I will be posting articles I’ve written for other websites through out the summer. I think you will like these other ministries and websites!

OHHHH! And some fun news…my new friend Jennifer Roth is starting up an online study of Stress Point soon. It will be fun to get her perspective on the Stress Point topics and I will be chiming in ever now and then with some new video blogs! She’s also doing a giveaway of Stress Point.  Check it out HERE.

 

Have a great Friday!

HUGS!
