Created by God for a Purpose - Dr. Kathy Koch

Dr. Kathy Koch shares that when she was growing up, she was dismayed at being so tall and having such a deep voice. But those are things that God has used to make her a speaker who can cope with any staging or mic mishaps! She urges parents and kids to embrace their ‘different’ gifts and use them for God’s glory.

“My parents chose to see all the words in me as a strength to develop, not a problem to eliminate.” I love that quote

[@yelitzadiaz2182]

What an awesome message! I'm encouraged to listen to my children with more attention and intention.

[@anar3602]

"I'm pro-life I'm eternal life I'm pro-abundant life I'm pro-living Live intentionally . . . for such a time as this" I want this on a t-shirt.

[@mangomandi6451]

A perfect word right on time! Ty Lord!

[@christinefarrall9391]

That’s like my grand daughter. As a child she talked a lot. Her stories were very very long. I wondered why she was like that. It’s worth praying about. Thank you. 🌸

[@andrewbrendan1579]

I didn’t want this to end..

[@rochellecaffee1417]

I get so much hope, inspired to carry on, and serve with desire to give my hope away, WHEN you share yourself. Thank you!! I needed to hear you, today.❤😊

[@lonefaolan6042]

As a 34 year old, I still struggle with believing life is worth living. It is not just a kid problem but a people problem- of all ages.

[@MissFrisky1221]

I love your voice! It reminds me of one of the best people I know.

[@dominiqueviljoen6880]

[@angietru1911]

Thank you.

[@claudebieniek385]

Just listened to this on the radio, watching it now. We all need this!!!! My greatest desire is to make a difference. But feel so inadequate, I will be watching this many more times. Plus sharing it with others

[@shirleywong9428]

Amen

[@grandmasstories3418]

Thank you for this, Dr. Kathy! The "cool tall" quote is fantastic and comes to my mind frequently now, which is just perfect, as I tend to feel inferior because of many of my personal characteristics, flaws and "defects" that a few people around me reject me for or try to make me feel bad for....

[@JenniferJane78]

Having a deep voice is a great gift, as you are able to reach women who are hard of hearing, as we so often struggle to hear other women. I appreciate your message so much and the secret to spelling, as that is an area that has not been a passion to correct. Going into the stage of parenting I appreciate that reminder to celebrate differences.

[@gramgrampmc.6937]

A man??

[@USCG.Brennan]

I just heard this on Christian Radio tonight and had to find it on YT. ;-)

[@sunriseschubert4391]

Losing my beloved mother on October 6 2022 has been very painful for me. There's more struggles and pain in this world that I don't know what to believe in now.

[@daphnekivinen9482]

I am really short! 4' 7". I look straight into the eyes of children and smile!

[@centpushups]

Change people who are willing.

[@everett8610]

I'm 57 and don't know my purpose yet Kathy

[@monicaperez2843]

Everett, please pray and ask G_D what your purpose is. You can't be born here on Earth without having a purpose. Talk to G_D as if He is your best friend. Then listen (meditate) for His answer.

[@monicaperez2843]

Have always had a deep voice that carries and never needed a PA system. Now I have a chronic respiratory problem that makes me sound even deeper, with a frog in my throat.

[@MariMari-vq8hl]

Hello! I went to look for a video I thought you guys uploaded on “how to talk to your children about lgbt topics” but cannot find it any longer? Is there a link you guys can provide again? Thank you!

[@tknows470]

I watched a short one, the Dr. said to be aware that lgbt is being portrayed (by culture and media) as a person’s identity so if parents reject the sexuality it’s seen as rejection of the person.

[@MariMari-vq8hl]

@@tknows470 thanks for replying ☺️

[@thaoriginal]
