Christine Caine | Living and Leading with Courage | Amy Orr-Ewing

Today on the podcast, British author, speaker, and apologist, Amy Orr-Ewing, joins Christine Caine to discuss her leadership journey, and all the twists and turns that have come with it. While Amy’s journey is one filled with great challenges and disappointment in leaders, this conversation will encourage you to keep moving forward, not give up, and to keep your hope in Jesus when your trust in leadership is broken.
SHOW NOTES:
Leading with Courage
As Christians, Amy encourages us that we can live confidently knowing that God is going before us, he is who he says he is, and even when leaders fail us, he does not.
Opening Doors for Women
Amy says we’ve come a long way from the hostility she experienced starting out, but we still have a long way to go. She stands confident that the Word of God releases and empowers women to be witnesses, evangelists, and leaders.
Anchored in Christ
Amy’s newest book, Lead Like the Real You, unpacks her painful season in 2020 when disappointment in a leader shook her to the core. The Holy Spirit was faithful to rebuild her and used a dear friend to remind her that even Jesus was betrayed by Judas. Our faith and hope remain anchored in Jesus, not people.

This is an actual confirmation of my calling.. God was speaking to me about being the light in the secular spaces and I wasn’t sure if been hearing right .. thought maybe flesh BUT this is it.. it opened up sooo many words of knowledge .. thank you for your obedience

[@AmySimmonds-luv4Jesus]

Thank you for this conversation. It gives me more to consider when considering my role in ministry. The 1 Timothy passage has been used many times against me doing anything in ministry. When I asked why God was using so many women like yourselves to lead others to Christ, I was told that God was using women's disobedience for good but that we would still need to answer for it. I have also been told that when Eve listened to the snake and then Adam and Eve entered into sin, part of the "curse" was that women would always want to be dominant over men and that we had to learn to control this. God is trying to help me sort it all out.

Wow! I’ve been against women in leadership. This helps me understand.
