In Season 2 of the Women Faith + Business Podcast, I asked each guest, “What does the Power of Faith mean to you?”. Each response is always different and powerful, so in this blog post I share the quotes of the Power of Faith from 8 guests on the podcast:
As entrepreneurs we find ourselves introduced to many opportunities that will grow our business and help others. However, we find that many times we carry just as much doubt about accomplishing our goals. Most times we are stuck which leads us to doubt the success of reaching our goals. We get stuck from perfectionism, we get stuck from lack of systems, we get stuck from fear to name a few. To overcome the doubt we have to get unstuck, to get unstuck we have to have faith and belief. In this episode, we explore how to get our SASS on!
As Christian business owners, we sometimes struggle with how to express or share our faith in our business. We wonder is it ok to say God, are we talking about faith too much, are we not sharing enough, etc. Pearlina shares with us how to implement the coexistence of faith and expertise in your business.
When God calls us into to the game we tend to act as if we don’t know who He is talking to. Although we hear Him clearly our response is ‘are you talking to me?’ We allow resistance to rise up stronger than we believe our faith to be. Chari Twitty-Hawkins shares that knowing and understanding when you’ve already asked for something, you don’t need to continuously pray for it. You need to just step up and do it.
Let’s talk about walking in strength and dignity in your business and personal life. You have to surround yourself with like-minded people and have a community of like-minded people to support your strength and dignity walk. These are two qualities necessary to meet success in every part of your life and to build your faith. Pam Drzewiecki shares how this is the guiding scripture in her life.
We are taught to create a plan and map out our lives. We go to school, get a job, get married, start a family, etc. Sometimes, it just does not work out that way! Our plans feel like a complete waste of time and like we have failed.
But isn’t it great that God says different! If only the biggest part of our plan was to get in alignment with God’s plan for our lives.
On this episode you will hear:
How she always felt like she was going to be in business for herself
How the power of prayer and agreement saved her life and saved her daughter’s life
How not getting an opportunity caused her to start her own business
How as people of faith we can make income and impact, and we can make money and make a difference
Her journey to being open about her faith in the marketplace
Sometimes in life God allows something that seems like a set back to happen in order to set you up for the next BIG thing that He has for you!
And that is exactly what happened to my guest on Episode 9 of the podcast, Lori Manns, when she was downsized from her corporate job is was just what she need to set her up on her entrepreneurial journey.
