“We don’t trip, we trust.” On our final episode of Season 1, we are very excited for you to hear from our friend, YouTuber, and CEO of Bible Beauty Co., Yasmine Williams Woods. It’s easy to get caught up in the detours, setbacks, delays, frustrations, and loss. But if we are going to proclaim that our calling is ultimately for His glory, we have to trust wherever He may lead. So let’s learn how to put our faith in the One who calls us despite life not looking like we thought it would.

This week’s resource is Elijah by Priscilla Shirer.

Show notes

As ministry leaders, hard conversations are a natural part of our jobs. But when do we acknowledge our limitations and refer our students, leaders, parents, and maybe even ourselves to professional counseling? And how do we go about doing that? That's why we’re introducing Aunt P—our friend and residential counseling professional on this podcast!

Aunt P walks you through the steps to seek and refer counseling in the way best suited to your situation. It will be important to know the laws for your state (including, but not limited to, mandatory reporting). We are not here to be your counselor but to help point you in the right direction to find and refer counseling.

This week’s resource is Counseling Women.

8. Remember Your Calling Nov 13, 2023

Did God actually call me to work in student ministry? What if my calling looks different than I thought it would? Am I in the wrong calling? What should I do once I am called? These are all common questions we hear often from ministry leaders, and we want you to know you're not alone if you've asked any one of them. Join our conversation today with two Lifeway Student teammates, Nancy Farag and Alecia Bryant, as we help you remember your calling and the God who called you.
He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it. — 1 Thessalonians 5:24

We can’t do ministry alone! So how can you begin building a culture of leaders who are champions for student and girls ministry? We’ll talk about the purpose of leaders, and discuss a strategy using three touchpoints: coach, care, and recruit. It doesn’t matter if you need one or one hundred leaders, we hope you’ll be encouraged on your next step in building leaders.

6. In Our Feels with Mac and Kenz Oct 30, 2023

We are so thankful to have friends and Lifeway Girls authors, Mac Bridges and Kenz Durham, with us for this episode all about feelings! Working with teen girls in ministry, we experience and talk through all the feels. You might not be a feeler, but what if we told you that God has created our feelings to invite us into intimacy with Him? And here’s the deal, that invitation isn’t just for your teen girls. It’s for you, too!

Mac and Kenz met in the Belmont University cafeteria their freshmen year of college when their moms introduced them because they share the same name (MacKenzie). Then, they quickly bonded over more than just their namesake—they both had a deep love for Jesusand a zeal for community. Over the years, they’ve started Delight ministries together, written books together, and created For The Girl as a way to combine those two passions. They believe that following Jesus is the most wildly exciting ride of your life, taking yourself too seriously is overrated, and faith is best done in community!

Watching your teen girl make mistakes or bad choices can lead to frustration or feeling like a failure. But as ministry leaders, we must be careful not to replace the work of the Holy Spirit in a girls’ life with our good intentions to modify their behavior.

3. Freedom to Be Yourself with Ben and Lynley Mandrell Oct 09, 2023

Show notes

Whether you're falling in the footsteps of a beloved ministry leader or don't fit the mold of "what it should look like," we want to remind you that Christ has called you to be you. This episode is your invitation into a life of authenticity and vulnerability, which is where all meaningful relationships begin.
We are so thankful for our guests, Ben and Lynley Mandrell, who are the hosts of The Glass House Podcast. Lifeway’s “The Glass House” is a space where ministry leaders will shed light on the challenges they often don’t feel permission to talk about. Listeners who work in the trenches of church life will feel seen and gain tools to navigate ministry and life. Those who live outside this “glass house” will better understand what it’s like to dwell there. Join Ben and Lynley Mandrell for these shockingly confessional—yet redemptive—conversations.

2. Navigating Isolation Oct 02, 2023

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

I am the only girl on my team. I didn’t get invited to that meeting. I don’t know anyone else who has this job. I don’t have community, and I don’t have anyone pouring into me. Am I the only one? Has God forgotten me?

We are often able to give the best advice or encouragement to our teen girls. But do we take our own advice? Do we know how to recall what is true in our lives? Do we remember the God who is with us? Let’s dive into this episode and talk about navigating isolation and seasons of loneliness.
