Balancing Ministry and Family

How do you strike that right balance between demands of family , work and ministry?  Frustration rises because we want to give everyone and everything 100% of our attention 100% of the time.  That is when we become jugglers of schedules, finances, emotions and energy.   In this session you will explore resources that God provides to strike a balance that is right for your life.   We leave our Super Woman  capes at the door as we laugh with each other, share a few tips and then  look honestly at how God leads us to achieve harmony between ministry work and all the rest of life’s blessings.

Reaching Your Destination When You're Tanked

Tank: slang. to do poorly or decline rapidly. Hebrews 12:1 tells us to “run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” But how do we reach our destination when we’ve completely tanked? Do obstacles, disappointments, hurt or sin threaten to keep you from reaching your destination? Kim Goad and teen Addison Ahrendts share how God has woven their lives together in a wild way and the secret they’ve learned to persevering when the enemy threatens to steal, kill and destroy. You can overcome setbacks like broken relationships, addictions, self-destructive behavior and depression by getting God’s big vision for your life. You’ll learn not only how to get a vision for your own life, but also how to help fuel a passion to lead in the younger women you influence.
