Podcasts about brave beauty finding

What do you do when God seems to have vanished? Maybe you feel alone in your decision making, your parenting, in your life? This is the question on the back of the book that we are going to highlight today. It is called *Esther: Seeing Our Invisible God in an Uncertain World. I don't know if you know this, but Esther is one of the two books of the Bible where God's name is not mentioned once. We are going to dive deeper into this today in our study. But I think it is amazing, because God's fingerprints are all over the book of Esther, but His name is not mentioned. Maybe that is where you feel like you are in your life.  You are like where are you God, I don't see you or feel you. Are you even working? So I love that we can study the life of Esther, and we can see that God still is present. He is still working! I am so excited to have Lynn Cowell and Amy Carroll on the podcast to talk about their Bible Study. It is phenomenal, and we are going to dive deeper into their 6-week study with these words: Listen, Feel, Do, Speak.  Also, both Lynn and Amy are writers for Proverbs 31 Ministries, and I am so excited to share about this amazing ministry for Giving Tuesday. I cannot wait to tell you more about that at the end of the episode. Again, you are going to learn so much from Amy and Lynn.   Also, I am so excited for someone to win a copy of Lynn and Amy's new book: *Esther.

Do you ever find it hard to let God work on your behalf? Are you tempted to trust in your own strength rather than let God work things out for you?  As believers, we have the most incredible opportunity to put our full trust and confidence in our heavenly Father. But, so often, we get caught in the trap of thinking “Surely I'm not the right person to do this” or “There's too much against me for this to actually work out.” Today on The Proverbs 31 Ministries Podcast, Lynn Cowell will help us understand what it means to develop unshakable confidence built on Christ.  With today's episode, you will… Grow your confidence in God as you hear references to stories in Scripture that show how He moved through others who trusted Him to do the impossible. Identify and address the fears that keep you stuck, and learn what practical steps to take to walk in your calling with confidence. Renew your passion to do what only you've been called to do, knowing it's more important to please God than others.

Did you know that a girl’s confidence peaks at the age of nine? Statistics report that 7 out of every 10 girls don’t feel like they measure up.   Moms, how can we raise our daughters with the confidence to pursue courageous and fearless lives? Today's Better Together podcast guest, author and Proverbs 31 Ministry speaker, Lynn Cowell, tells us about her journey to discover what it means to be brave and courageous in her life. As women of all ages fight to find that same confidence, Lynn wants to equip our young tweens so that they can find confidence sooner in life. She is the author of the new book, Brave Beauty: Finding the Fearless, a companion guide written for girls between the ages of 8-12 years old. I loved so many things about our conversation!  One of the most powerful observations was when Lynn explained how culture drives our girls to build their confidence on three shaky foundations:  1. Someone (like a relationship with someone); 2. Some Place (career/status); or 3. Something (beauty, education). But, all of those things can be lost or taken because much of life is out of our control. So, to help our daughters, let's journey along with them to help them to build unshakeable confidence on an unshakeable God because they can’t lose God! What if your confidence has been shaken? Lynn has something for you, too! Lynn has a new Bible study for women titled Make Your Move: Finding Unshakeable Confidence Despite Your Fears and Failures. There are a lot of strong, confident women in the Bible! Lynn has created a Bible study so that you can learn from these women, some of them you might not know, but they will inspire to reach for God's best! Mom, if you have a daughter in elementary school or junior high, would you do me a favor and check out Lynn's website. Our world is coming hard after young girls, but we can equip them to stand strong and confident in Jesus' name. RESOURCES  Lynn’s website – including free resources!

“To live life authentically, you don’t have to share everything. Just live in a way that you are true to who you are and true to who God is in you.”   My guest today is Lynn Cowell. Lynn is a national conference speaker who is passionate about helping women of all ages understand the importance of Christ confidence.
