Do you ever struggle to identify, embrace, or use your gifts with confidence? You’re not alone, and this episode will help you reframe your thoughts about embracing your gifts. As Christian women leaders, it’s important for us to embrace our gifts--but how exactly do we do this? In the first of our Summer Throwback Series episodes, we’re sharing clips from several of our past guests around the topic of embracing your gifts.  You’ll hear encouraging and challenging words to help you remember some powerful truths about acknowledging, understanding, and using your gifts with confidence. After you listen, make sure to head back and listen to the full episodes with these guests, as these clips are just a small glimpse into the incredible conversations.   Featured Guests on this episode: Abby Rike Rockenbaugh, Episode 3 Breshana Miller, Episode 45 Lilah Higgins, Episode 5 Patrice Washington, Episode 51 Rachael Gilbert, Episode 14 Jill McCormick, Episode 7   Key Quotes from this throwback episode:   “Whenever I say, ‘Oh I’m not a leader, oh I’m not good enough to do that’, then I’m basically calling God a liar.” - Abby Rike Rockenbaugh   “If God has called you to this, and you know this is what you can do--this is how God has blessed you in order to serve other women--there are women who need it.” - Breshana Miller   “When you’re trying to build a business off of your skills, and you’re trying to walk in what God has for you, it’s something you don’t really notice, cause it’s super easy for you, and it doesn’t feel like work.” - Lilah Higgins   “Even as I was building confidence, there was still that seed of doubt that tried to come in.” - Patrice Washington   “The more time I hang out with God… I don’t have the words to express how He shifts something in my heart.” - Rachael Gilbert   “When we confuse confidence and competence with pride, that’s a problem. Because God has gifted you with competence, and He’s gifted you with gifts to use and acknowledge. And you don’t do the world any favors when you deny your gifting for the sake of not wanting to be boastful.” - Jill E.

We have enjoyed getting to know you so much.    Also, thank you to those who have shared the podcast, left ratings and reviews, and especially to each of our guests who has taken the time to share her story. It has been such a blessing to talk with each of you, and your contribution has enriched our conversation about leadership as a Christian woman.    Holly and I also want to thank our team which gets this podcast out each week. It’s truly a team effort and we could not do this on our own! The 5 Most Listened-To Episodes Episode 1: Our Leadership Journeys Episode 17: How the Enneagram Can Help You Nurture Healthy Relationships with Beth McCord {RELATIONSHIPS SERIES} Episode 45: Developing Confidence in Your Gifts & Managing Multiple Roles with Breshana Miller Episode 30: How Your Personality Impacts How You Set and Accomplish Goals  Episode 42: Leading in Women’s Ministry, Doing What You Love, and Building a Team with Sandy Flewelling and Holly Cain  Esther’s Favorite Episodes  Can every episode be my favorite? Yes! But here are the three episodes that really stood out to me:   Episode 3: Surviving Loss & Embracing Leadership with Abby Rike Rockenbaugh. I loved these words Abby spoke, “When I say ‘Oh, I’m not a leader,’ I’m calling God a liar. If the things I say to myself are not truthful, I need to go to the only place I can find the truth - God’s word.” Abby also reminded us that our confidence comes from God, and it’s not wrong to acknowledge our spiritual gifts He has given us.   Episode 17: How the Enneagram Can Help You Nurture Healthy Relationships with Beth McCord {RELATIONSHIPS SERIES}. Beth reminds us that we all have longings, but only God fulfills those longings. We need to capture lies and give them back to God.   Episode 43: Creativity, Calling, and Changing Culture with Jenny Randle. This truth from Jenny is sooooo good, “If you are a believer, you have a ministry, and it’s in the everyday minutes of your life, are you glorifying and enjoying God?” I also loved how Jenny reminded us of the importance of not diminishing our voice as women, and that we have the opportunity to impact culture with our gifts.   Holly’s Favorite Episodes Holly shared the three episodes that really resonated with her:   Episode 8: The Key to Becoming a Better Leader. Holly isn’t one for confrontation and loved the section of this episode where we talk about giving feedback.    Episode 11: From Dream Career to Purposeful Leadership with Jenni Catron {PURPOSE SERIES}. Jenni provides us with a leadership framework that applies in every setting. What does it mean to lead well? Relational Leadership (Heart), Spiritual Leadership (Soul), Strategic Leadership (Mind), and Visionary Leadership (Strength).   Episode 42: Leading in Women’s Ministry, Doing What You Love, and Building a Team with Sandy Flewelling and Holly Cain. When we follow our gifting and strengths, it frees others up to follow and work more deeply into their gifts and strengths. Leaders who support and encourage others to serve in their gifting and to lead in their spaces, frees each one up to grow well. There is no ceiling. There is no limit.   What Episode Do You Love?  Holly and I would love to know which episode has impacted and resonated with you.

40: Five Key Principles for the Christian Business Owner

What sets Christian business owners apart from the rest? Should we follow the standard business advice out there, or should we be doing things differently? In this conversation, Holly and I dive into the topic of business again. In episode 38, you heard Holly interview me as I shared about my business journey. But today, we are digging into some key principles that we believe set us apart as Christian women in business. Whether you have a business of your own, work in a business environment, or have considered working from home or starting a business, this episode is sure to give you some points to consider! And if you are someone who would like to earn some extra income from home, join me for my free workshop to help you understand your options. It's taking place April 9th, 2019 at 12:30pm Eastern. Sign up here for the free workshop:5 Ways to Earn Income From Home. Ministry or Business? Before we discuss the key principles, we want to tackle one question that we received in our private Facebook group: How do I know if I have a ministry or a business? Holly and I each share our perspectives on this, and we note that we all have a ministry, regardless of what kind of work we do. We are all called to bring glory to God in whatever we do, and we’re also called to make disciples. However, if we are purely discussing ministry vs. business in an organizational sense, we identify a ministry as typically being a non-profit organization whereas a business would be for-profit. In this conversation, we are primarily focusing on business in the traditional sense, where a product or service is being offered in exchange for money. 5 Key Business Principles as a Christian Business Owner: 1. Our focus is a Kingdom focus instead of an earthly one. Colossians 3:2 - “Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.” Having a Kingdom focus will affect the way we view work itself, the way we view our money, and the way we treat others. In episode 3, Abby Rike Rockenbaugh shared that in Christian leadership, we might do things differently than what the typical business advice might be.   2. We steward our money and recognize that it belongs to God. When we view our business finances in this way it really gives us a good perspective on how we handle things.  We are working in God's business and we are handling God’s money so what we do with it matters. Deal with your money mindset. Take your finances seriously. It’s not wrong to make money.   Hebrews 13:5 “Keep your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, 'I will never leave you or forsake you.'" The issue is not earning money but rather having a love of money. It comes down to trusting God to provide what you need. At the same time, you need to be willing to work when necessary without being obsessed with money or wealth. Listen to the How They Blog episode about making money as a blogger or online. Listen to episode 35 with Melissa Whaley. Visit Holly's website to learn more about her bookkeeping services. Download Holly's FREE Guide: Best Practices for Handling Money as a Christian Business Owner   3. We treat our clients and customers as people made in God’s image, not just as a means to an end. We believe that if you are a Christian business owner, then every person you interact with should be treated with dignity and respect, because they are made in God’s image. This means that even if they hold different values than you do, or even if they are rude or unkind, we still have the choice to treat them with kindness. Also means that we don’t see our clients or customers just as dollar signs or stats on a page… but rather real people. Honesty, respect, and integrity should mark us as Christian business owners. It’s also important to remember that we never really know what others are going through. We are able to meet people’s needs and minister to them even in the business world by showing them love. Your business does not have to be faith-based to be effective or to be a ministry.   4. With our marketing, we are strategic but not sleazy. There’s a lot of things you can do in marketing that are legal and even praised in the business world…. But they can sometimes become sleazy. It’s possible to promote a product or service without being dishonest. It’s also vital not to be desperate in our marketing attempts. It’s not wrong to sell or to use marketing tools in your efforts, and it’s important to recognize that not everyone will love what you do or buy your product or service.   5. We operate out of our core values. What are core values? They are how we make our decisions. We all have them, but we’re not all intentional about identifying them. Getting clear on your core values will help you make clear decisions. Our core values should be connected to our faith in some way. When we follow other business mentors or leaders, we need to discern whether what they are teaching line up with our core values and/or line up with Biblical principles. It’s easy to get “FOMO” and feel worried about missing out on business or leads if you don’t know what your core values are.

When our obsession becomes money, that is when it’s a wrong perspective and a wrong attitude.” “If I were to only serve Christian business owners, I’m actually losing an opportunity to minister to people who might not otherwise get to know God.” This episode was originally published on estherlittlefield.com/episode40.

What happens when you end up in leadership roles after devastating circumstances? How do you navigate the tension between building a business and being faithful to God’s calling? In this episode, I interview Abby Rike Rockenbaugh and discuss how she learned how to embrace unexpected leadership after loss. You’ll hear some powerful reminders about the importance of sharing your story. The Reluctant Leader Abby’s leadership journey started when she was young. She was referred to as “bossy”, but learned to tone down those skills because she wanted to have friends. Abby was often chosen as the leader within group projects growing up, but she truly realized she was a leader when she was in college. She shares about an experience when she was in a group project where she was not the designated leader. After the project was over, Abby’s professor shared with her that the other members of her group all indicated that they felt that she was actually the leader. Her professor then called out her gift of leadership, which was a turning point for Abby. Instead of viewing herself as bossy and annoying, she was able to embrace that being a leader was a good thing. Abby’s Defining Moment & The Importance of Your Story Abby shares about her defining moment that changed her life forever. She explains that during her grief, leadership was not even something on her radar. She was simply surviving. She had to wrestle with whether God was who she had always thought him to be. After walking through that experience, she felt that now leadership was not just about her natural giftings, but rather about a calling. She now had a responsibility to share her story and point people to Jesus. Abby believes that everyone has a story, and that it’s important for people to know how to share their story. She and I chat about when she recognized that it was time to share her story, and how some of these opportunities turned out to be completely unexpected. Abby ended up being chosen to be a contestant on The Biggest Loser. After this, God opened more doors for public speaking and other platforms to share her story. We discuss how many times God just asks us to take the next right step. I ask Abby how she manages the tension of growing a business vs. following God’s calling on her life. Her best advice is that if something doesn’t rest well within your soul, don’t do it. With leadership, you have to be willing to swim against the current. Embracing Your Gifts & Your Identity Abby shares that she has found the spiritual gift test to be extremely helpful to her as a a leader. She believes that it’s important for us to claim the gifts God has given us. As a reluctant leader, stepping into her gifts and owning them has been the best thing she could do to become a more effective leader. I ask Abby what she has done to embrace how God has wired her. She says that she believes that if she does not accept her identity, then she is calling God a liar. She goes to the source of truth, God’s word, to determine who she really is. We discuss the source of confidence, false humility, and the tension between accepting your gifts and becoming prideful in them. We chat about the importance of having mentors and people who will help you to stay accountable. It’s important to find people who get you, but who will also tell you the truth. You also need people who can be there for you when you are really having a difficult time. Abby’s Passions Abby is passionate about equipping women to be in the word of God. This stems out of her own experience of being a prodigal for many years, and being wooed back to God by His word. She became a Christian as a young child, but she wasn’t truly discipled. Her passion now is to help women understand the character of God. She wants women to experience the transformation of their heart and life. Abby’s ministry, RockThis, was born out of this passion. We also chat about her Speaking For Bloggers business and the history behind this, including when God said “no.” Abby shares how God ended up opening some big doors, including having the opportunity to be on Ruth Soukup’s podcast, Do It Scared. Following the podcast, Ruth invited Abby to be part of a bigger speaking opportunity. In Christian leadership, there are some things that are different than what the typical business advice might be. Instead of beating down the doors, it’s spending time in prayer and having your speech prepared. You can do the preparatory things so that when God says “go”, you’re ready. The bigger doors sometimes open when we’re obedient in the small things. Abby’s Advice for Younger Leaders: Pray for the right mentor Continually grow in your faith Don’t be afraid to fail Leaders Are Learners Abby and I chat about what Abby is learning. She shares that she knows her weakness in her current business is marketing, and she’s been working to learn more about this area. In a noisy world, we need to choose what we are focusing on instead of trying to do everything. We have to limit the voices we allow in. Abby's final thought for us is this: "Stay true to God, stay true to yourself, and God will bless those endeavors." How You Can Connect with Abby: RockThis.Org SpeakingforBloggers.com Abby Rike Rockenbaugh is a professional speaker, published author, and former teacher who now helps bloggers hone their public speaking skills.
