    One Faithful Step After General Conference

    Have you ever finished General Conference feeling completely inspired… and completely overwhelmed at the same time? Maybe you left the weekend feeling excited about Jesus Christ and full of ideas for how you want to grow. Then Monday comes, and suddenly all that inspiration feels like a giant spiritual to-do list. In this episode, We’ll about how we can receive the inspiration of General Conference without turning it into another measure of whether we are doing enough. Through the idea of “lowering the plank,” she shares five ways to approach Conference after the weekend is over, including learning line upon line, finding a way of studying that works for you, and recognizing that consistent growth does not have to look the same every day. This episode is a reminder that discipleship is not about becoming everything all at once. We are apprentices of Jesus Christ, learning, practicing, receiving grace, and taking one faithful step at a time. 🌿 In This Episode 🌸 How inspiration can accidentally become a spiritual to-do list 🌸 What it means to “lower the plank” in our discipleship 🌸 Why God teaches us line upon line 🌸 Finding a way of studying that draws you closer to Christ 🌸 Why growth does not have to look the same every day 🌸 How to identify the one small step God may be inviting you to take right now You do not have to digest the entire Conference feast today. Choose one bite, one invitation, one truth to carry with you, and trust God to teach you the rest, line upon line. 🎥 Watch the full episode: https://youtu.be/OAYLdTMkf1Q?si=vE6lkmKTLbNZUEzI Connect with me: 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shinemommyshine/ 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kirstinbaxtercoaching 🌐 Website: https://www.kirstinbaxtercoaching.com/ 📅 Book a Call: https://calendly.com/kirstin-baxter/personal-discernment-session 📧 Email Me: https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&to=Kirstin@kirstinbaxtercoaching.com

    What If Ministering Is Practice for Zion?

    What if ministering isn’t one more thing to add to your already-full plate but part of Christ’s way of teaching you that you were never meant to carry it alone? When we think about ministering, it can be easy to think about assignments, visits, texts we should have sent, or one more responsibility we need to squeeze into an already busy life. But what if ministering is about something much bigger? In this episode, we’re looking at ministering as a way Christ teaches us to become more like Him and even as practice for becoming a Zion people. We’ll talk about learning to notice and love people outside our normal circles, why receiving help can be just as important as giving it, and why being overwhelmed doesn’t necessarily mean you have nothing to offer. Zion isn’t made up of perfectly self-sufficient people. It’s made up of people whose hearts are knit together people who learn how to carry one another. In this episode, we’ll talk about: Why President Russell M. Nelson called ministering a “newer, holier approach” and what it might look like to minister in the Savior’s way. How ministering can become part of our apprenticeship with Jesus Christ, helping us practice noticing, loving, listening, and showing up for the one. What it means to have our hearts “knit together” and why the small, ordinary acts of connection may actually be helping us practice becoming Zion. Why an overwhelmed woman still has something to give and why Zion needs receivers, too. How to use discernment to know whether Christ is inviting you to serve, rest, reach out, ask for help, or simply let someone else love you today. Maybe ministering isn’t just about making sure everyone gets checked on. Maybe it’s one of the ways Jesus Christ is teaching us, stitch by stitch and heart by heart, how to become Zion. 🤍 CONNECT WITH KIRSTIN Instagram: @‌shinemommyshine Website: Kirstin Baxter Coaching FREE RESOURCE: The 6 Motherhood Myths That Keep You Overwhelmed Grab your free copy and begin identifying some of the beliefs that may be adding unnecessary pressure to motherhood.

    What If Rest Is More Than Slowing Down?

    What if rest isn’t simply about stopping but about releasing what we’re carrying? In this episode, we’re exploring Christ’s invitation to those who are “heavy laden” and what Mary and Martha can teach us about balancing service and stillness. We’ll talk about surrendering worry, releasing the need to control outcomes, and learning to discern what God is asking of us in each season. You’ll be encouraged to consider: What are you carrying that may not actually be yours to carry? Where might God be inviting you to release pressure and trust Him? How can you do your part while leaving the outcome in His hands? Rest doesn’t always mean the work disappears. Sometimes it means realizing you don’t have to carry the work alone. 🤍 🎥 Watch the full episode: https://youtu.be/5UH3s2xOZ7o?si=me8ap-V95cfFXWVw 🌿 Free Guide: The Six Motherhood Myths That Keep You Overwhelmed Lead magnet https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZvPbFMSWF3MDuzN5z91-GGlpt3coBwES/view Until next time, keep walking with Him one surrendered step at a time.

    When Truth Gets Subtly Twisted
