This week's episode has been stirring in Susan's heart for a while now. She wants to champion faith leaders, regardless of where or how they're leading, to stay with the unfiltered Word of God. Her heart is for the Church to impact the world and to stay free from a performance mentality because it is God's presence that we are called to pursue most.

I think one of the greatest gifts we can offer to others is the gift of encouragement. To help others feel loved, seen, known, and valued is something that is always needed.

I'm grateful she will be using her gift of encouragement as emcee at the She Rises Women's Conference in May. Megan is a wife to Jake and together they have four amazing children. M...

This episode is very dear to my heart! In a few days of this recording, I will rejoice in my spiritual birthday (February 11th); the day I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior.

In this world, we will have trouble, Jesus said, but He added not to worry because He has overcome the world (John 16:33). With so much happening in nearly every corner of the world, it can be easy to become caught up in the latest news cycle and become distracted. Yes, the world is groaning (Matt. 24), but let's be women who don't become so focused on that and forget our God is mighty and at work! Let's continue to occupy the land and be about the Father's business in this hour! Learn more abou...

There is no shortage of things to be offended by in today's world! But there's a difference between being offended by something and living offended.

In this week's episode, Susan shares a vision she had while praying a few months ago. As she prayed about what she saw, the Lord said these words - The enemy is showing up to the door of My people's lives trying to sell them something that's not from Me. When the disciples asked Jesus how they would know when He would return, the first thing He said was, "Take heed no one deceives you." (see Matt. 24) The Bible warns believers against deception throughout the NT. Obviously, the Lord wanted us to...

As you're aware, Israel was brutally attacked and is at war. Some suggest war is common in the Middle East and so this war isn't a big deal. That narrative, however, only reflects the lack of people knowing their Bible. The biblical significance of this war cannot be understated.

I've known this day was coming for several months - the day I make the official announcement that I am stepping away from a few things ministry related. It bears noting that, as I mention in this episode, the message God has given me to carry hasn't changed, but the method is. It has been my honor to connect with you each week here in the online space. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your week. Some of you I will never meet as this podcast has been heard around the world, but know it m...

I often ask, "Is this a good thing or a God thing?" This week, we're going to talk about not settling for less than God's best in our lives. We can become great managers of good. It becomes our comfort and because it is so familiar, we stop moving forward into the things God is calling us to. Are there areas in your life that you've settled? Don't allow what you were meant to walk through, to keep you. You can learn more about Susan and her ministry, She Rises, at www.sherisesmn.org . Find Susan...

In our final episode of the relationships series, we will talk at length about rebuilding trust so a healthy community can surround you. Often, when mistrust exists, we isolate ourselves believing that's what is best however, isolation isn't God's best for you. Healing from past wounds as a result of experiences in previous relationships is vital in rebuilding trust. From there, we can implement the tips talked about in this episode to put ourselves back out there and find community! You can lea...

This week, we’re continuing the series on relationships with a conversation about your inner circle. The people we surround ourselves with matter because they influence the choices we make, and how we live our lives, and our circle influences our faith. This episode will help take the guesswork out of who should be in our inner circle because Susan clearly explains what those people sound like and add to the lives of others.

I'm often asked about relationships and how to navigate the challenges that we all encounter so I decided to do a series on the most often-asked questions. In this week's episode, we're going to talk about being labeled too much, too loud, too intense, too assertive, too ______. It's time to stop wearing the labels people place on you and start walking in the freedom that how God created you was intentional and not a mistake!

Susan has talked about fear a few times on this podcast but wanted to have another conversation about it with a few added thoughts. Fear especially shows up when we need to make a decision or need direction. Often, when people feel anxious about making a decision, they seek guidance or signs in ways that aren't in their best interest.

This week, we're joined by my friend, Rachael Jenneman to talk about becoming a confident female leader. In all the years of engaging in this type of conversation, I have to say that how Rachael approached this topic was top-notch. She models integrity and it shows in this conversation. One big takeaway is this - in a world that tells us men and women cannot co-labor together or that to get ahead, women need to push men out of the way, we can choose to be women who respect our male colleagues an...

For the woman who feels like quitting, we believe this episode will help you not only identify why you want to quit but help you push through those feelings. In this episode, we'll see that quitting and letting go of something the Lord is finished with (a season has ended) are two different things. Feelings to quit are secondary feelings to an underlying issue. Stay tuned to the end as Susan felt prompted to share a word of encouragement for anyone struggling not to quit.

One of the biggest reasons people quit things they once were passionate about is because they feel unsupported and encouraged. We've all been there and will experience these throughout our lives so it isn't that we need to work harder to avoid them, but rather how to keep going despite of them!

Continuing with the theme started a couple of weeks ago on what things to expect when you step out into something new or decide to go all-in with your faith, this week we will focus on how to handle being misunderstood. Often, people attach their thoughts or expectations on others about how to do something rather than allowing them to grow and become all the Lord has called them to be. No longer allow being misunderstood to cause you to shrink back! Learn more about Susan and her ministry, She R...
