She Connects

Rise Up, Church!

Susan hosts an annual women's conference and the 2024 She Rises Women's Conference was held in May. This week, you will hear a portion of the message she gave at the 2024 women's conference.

 

While it isn't her entire message, we believe this week's episode will champion you forward in your faith!

Are We Living in the End Times? Pt. 2

This week, we continue our conversation about end times focusing specifically on what it means to occupy until Jesus comes.

 

We will cover four key areas to occupy and while they aren't an exhaustive list, they do serve as a great place to begin.

Are We Living in the End Times? Pt.1

Wars and rumors of wars, lawlessness, economic stressors, division, etc. A lot is happening in the world right now and with each day, something new unfolds. Some are asking, What is going on? Others are asking, Is this the end of days?

 

I love the study of eschatology - what the Bible says about end-time prophecy. In this two-part series, we will unpack a few key points that support, from a biblical perspective, that we are living in the last days.

Keep the Faith!

We, globally and within the Body of Christ, are in a time of shaking. Acknowledging that isn't being faithless or negative, but discerning of the times we're living in.

 

In this week's episode, I want to help strengthen your faith. Rather than deconstructing our faith in response to what is happening around us, let's be women who rise up and are determined to live lives of righteousness. 

 

The podcast I mentioned, Let's Talk with Sanctuary, with Bridgette Tomlin can be found on any podcast platform. Highly recommend!

Yoga, Reiki, and other Modern-day Practices

Over the years, we've seen various new methods claiming to offer people things to better their lives. While they appear innocent, harmless, and nothing to be concerned about, these methods have origins that do not align with the Christian faith. 

We must use wisdom and discernment when considering these and other methods as part of our daily lives.

Developing Your God-given Gifts

This week starts episodes I feel led to discuss - topics we don't hear much about nowadays. As always, I want to encourage you as a friend would.

 

In this episode, I want to encourage emerging leaders stepping into ministry to take the time to develop the gifts lying within them. I also want to encourage seasoned ministry leaders to remember the importance of mentoring and discipleship of emerging leaders.

Hustle Culture with Kristin Kurtz

We're excited you're here for this conversation and it is our hope it will help equip you and bring freedom to any area of your life that hustle culture tries to influence.

Raising Kids in Today's World with Cassy Mantey

What joy to have my friend Cassy on the show to talk about motherhood! We believe this conversation will encourage moms in any season. May you be reminded today that your role as mom is so valuable and we "see" you!

She and her family have been residents of Minnesota since May 2023, when the Lord launched them into full-time ministry at Lighthouse Christian Church, Rosemount, MN. That is when Cassy's career as a full-time SAHM began. As a graduate of Cincinnati Christian University and a former youth pastor, Cassy's passion is to make theology relevant and understandable for all ages so that Jesus gets the awe and wonder He deserves!
