I'm thrilled to officially share, together with this week's guest, all the details about an upcoming weekend created for women coming January 13-14, 2023. It's a weekend for women to step away and find breathing room for their souls as they sit at the feet of Jesus.   This week, we are joined by a special guest, Hannah Harren. Hannah has such a beautiful and tender heart for the Lord. You will undoubtedly hear that in this week's episode. Hannah captured the heart of the Lord for this weekend with this quote, "I believe the Lord wants us to hand over our ashes from the last season so we can walk forward in all He has for us in the next season."   We hope you will join us in January! As mentioned in the episode, space is very limited so grab your tickets here https://www.sherisesmn.org/.    You can find Hannah at https://www.facebook.com/hannahjo.harren.5.  You can find Susan on Facebook or Instagram at Susan Vandenheuvel.

This week, one of my dearest friends, Robin Ruonala, joins us to talk about her story of how God helped her through one of the most challenging times of her life - the tragic loss of her first husband.   Be encouraged today that no matter what you've been through or walking through right now, it isn't the end of your story.    In Word, and in song, Robin’s desire is to impart a transparent expression of hope and freedom; in Christ - to this, and future generations.Residing on the coastland, she and her Husband Rick Ruonala serve as Associate Pastors, at their home church; Grace Christian Fellowship, in Little River South Carolina. “My tongue is the pen of a ready writer, overflowing with the goodness of my King”.

Identity is a topic I could have a conversation about every single day! It's the overarching message of everything She Rises is about.   In this week's episode, I am sharing a portion of a message I gave recently at a conference for young adults. I hope this episode helps you throw off anything you might be wearing that isn't meant for you.   Learn more about Susan and her ministry, She Rises, at https://www.sherisesmn.org/.

God's blessing, favor, and anointing are upon you being you, not a version of someone else! You can glean from another person and even admire her, but don't take the bait of comparing yourself to her.   You can learn more about Susan and her ministry, She Rises, at https://www.sherisesmn.org/.

Are you an overthinker? You're not alone! Overthinking create scenarios in our minds without proof to support our thinking. This often leads to worry, anxiety, and strain in relationships. You can shut the door to overthinking! You are not powerless! Together with the tips shared in this week's episode and the help of God, you can steer and guide your thoughts in the direction you want them to go.   To learn more about Susan and her ministry, She Rises, visit https://www.sherisesmn.org/.

In this final episode of the mini-series, Embracing Change, we'll talk about lifting your voice. Lift your voice and decree the promises of God and what you know to be true about Him over your situation, questions, doubts, and the unknown.   The resource Susan talks about can be found at https://www.sherisesmn.org/.

This week, let's talk about putting footsteps to your faith. Faith has an element of risk and we can't take steps three and four if we're first not willing to take steps one and two.   Often, it's the fear of failure or fear of the unknown that holds us back, however. In this episode, we'll cover how to put footsteps to your faith when fear is present.   You can learn more about Susan and her ministry at https://www.sherisesmn.org/.

We're in a mini-series on transition and this week's episode has been on my heart to include. Often we hear about doors closing, seasons ending, and new doors and new beginnings but not a lot about the space in between.   You've maybe heard, "Until the Lord opens the next door, praise Him in the hallway." This week, let's talk about the hallway. When transitioning, it's important to learn how to wait well because God is equally concerned about our time in the hallway as He is walking us through new doors. Perhaps, even more!   Honored to have you here, now let's connect!   Learn more about Susan and her ministry, She Rises, at https://www.sherisesmn.org/.

I hope you're enjoying this mini-series on change and transition. This week is part two of Embracing Change - Faith Has Ears. This episode is so practical! Because I believe God doesn't make it complicated to hear His voice, I wanted to give you tools to better understand and grow in your confidence to hear Him. I've also shared a couple of examples of how I confirm something I feel the Lord has spoken to my heart. He wants you to hear Him!   You can learn more about Susan and her ministry, She Rises, at https://www.sherisesmn.org/   You can find Susan on Facebook and Instagram at Susan Vandenheuvel.

Well, hey there! It's so good to be back! After an extended time off the grid, I'm excited to connect with you here!   I have so much to share about what the Lord has spoken to my heart in recent months, I decided to start us off by talking about change and when God is closing doors, or ending a season of something in our lives. In this series, we're going to talk about how to identify if God is changing things in your life, what to do next, and how to activate your faith to follow His lead.   Thank you for tuning in and for leaving a review or some stars.
