#92: The Power of a Godmother with Lisa Bevere

Real Talk with Rachael Podcast

This week on Real Talk with Rachael I'm talking with author Lisa Bevere about her new book Godmothers: Why You Need One. How to Be One.

Lisa Bevere’s authentic and passionate teachings weave profound biblical truths with practical application. A New York Times best-selling author, her books are in the hands of millions worldwide. Lisa and her husband John are the founders of Messenger International.

We're Talking About:

• how Lisa's experience with women in the church lead to God calling her to be the mentor to other women that she wishes she had herself
• mentoring doesn't necessarily have to do with age, it's who been further in the process
• "God will have us bless others out of our brokenness."
• "When I'm committed to growing others, I can't help but grow myself."
• using your social media influence to encourage others without making it an idol or letting it determine our value
• the role of Godmothers and how to choose who speaks into your life
• "When we don't celebrate growth, we become hopeless."
• the importance of multiple Godmothers to speak into different areas of life
• insecurities about mentoring others - it's better to move and make a mistake than it is to freeze
• setting boundaries as a Godmother
• We are blessed when we can show people how to cooperate instead of competing or fighting. That's when you discover who you are and your place in God's family.
