Anticipating the release of Braver with Belief

Save the Date: September 16, 2025

It's hard to believe that it's almost been a year since I started writing Braver with Belief. This book is one I wasn't sure would ever get finished. It's the first book that I have ever written as events were unfolding in real time.

What makes this book special is that it's a look into the struggles we face as we wrestle with the decision to follow God's calling and step into servant leadership. I share with you very candidly the refining of my heart I had to undergo before I could fully step into leadership confidently.

There were things I had to let go of along the way, like regrets and grudges. By releasing these things from my life, I was then able to pick up humility, kindness, and joy to become a well rounded leader. 

There are so many ways in which a person can become a servant leader. It isn't just about being a leader in a church. You can be a leader in whatever field you are an expert in. It could be within your career or your business. It could be through writing your testimony in a book to help teach others valuable lessons you've learned. It could be starting your own ministry to serve others in the way you feel called to do so.

It took me a while to realize this was truth. I used to think that in order to be a good leader, I had to be in a well known company, a large church, or be popular (or famous). Because of this limiting belief I had, I denied myself the chance to help others in areas that I had knowledge in.

One day, I woke up and realized that I could (and should) not only do better, I should also be better. But what does that mean, exactly? 

You'll have to read the book to discover the answer to that last question.

I cannot wait to share with you the Braver with Belief book and the guided journal, Called to Serve. The two together will equip you with everything you need to get started as a bold leader who leads with confidence.
