button. Make sure we've got that there. Perfect. Great. Okay, I
think we dotted all our I's and crossed all our T's. And we're
going to take a moment just to get in the presence of the Lord
Tamara is going to fire up and we're gonna have some fun today.
Amen. Amen. Father, we thank you so so much for bringing us
together. We thank you that my sister Monica and I we got a
chance today to practice our peace. So thank you, Lord. Thank
you that Lord, you are with us in all of the moments when
they're crazy, hectic, and when everything is going smooth, God,
we welcome you in Holy Spirit into this session, that we can
grow, we can build each other up during this session. Lord, I
pray over each of us that we will continue in the momentum
that you have started in us by knowing our identity and not
surrendering our identity to to what's going on around us. Oh,
God, we thank you for healing for ourselves and for our
families. Oh, God, all of us that are standing in need of
prayer. Oh, God, for certain issues. I ask that you move on
behalf of your people. Show yourself strong on our behalf.
Oh, God, continue to help us to have our quiet time with you as
a non negotiable. Oh, God, that we will carve out that time to
be with you to be refreshed to be restored to be renewed. I
thank you that we will walk in peace. Oh, God. So I bless
Monica today, Lord that you will give her the wisdom that she
needs to answer our questions on today. And I bless all of my
brothers and sisters watching now and on the replay in Jesus
name. We pray. Amen. And amen. Amen. Amen. Love it. Thank you
so much. All right. Let's get started with some wins. Let's
hear some exciting news from your week and it can be about
anything. Who would like to share a win? Can I jump in?
Okay, I don't know if everyone got to see my post. I know we're
all busy. But my dad was in the ICU. He went April 10 trouble
breathing on a ventilator. Every report from the doctor was not
good. Basically time to say goodbye was is what the doctors
were giving us. And again, I know age doesn't matter,
honestly, but my dad is like 6667. So, you know, but the
doctors like it's time, you know, basically let them go or
whatever. So anyway, I'm can probably say that my dad is off
the ventilator as of yesterday breathing on his own, through
the powerful, powerful prayers of you all anyone that was able
to jump in and pray for him at any given time and just family
and friends that were praying. And so testimony is still
loading. And I'll share more but just had to share that, that the
Lord is still working miracles, no matter how grim a situation
may look in literally every report from the doctor was not
good, not good, you know, and basically, they're just saying,
okay, it's just a matter of time. So basically, get your
goodbyes in now is what we were told. So but God, so anyways,
just had to share that.
Love that. Thank you, Lord. He is moving. And he is breathing
life back into your dad. And he's gonna come out better than
ever. Yeah. Yeah. Awesome. Anyone else like to share?
Looks like Holly has her hand up. I would.
Praise God about your dad. That's amazing. That's a good
story. Well, I have had just a change, drastic change in my
life. My family and I have been taking care of my in laws for
almost four months. And they moved in with us. They both have
different forms of dementia. And around Christmas time, it became
clear that they could not be alone at all in their home, they
were living alone. So they moved in with us. And it basically was
a pause, like we just took a pause from our life because they
couldn't be left alone. So one of us, either my husband or
myself, or one of my kids had to be with them all the time. And
so we basically just set everything aside to serve them,
love them and figure out what to do next. And it was really
difficult to find a place for them to go that was affordable,
that we felt like was okay place for them to be. And it took a
long time, but we found a place for them. And they were really
upset about it.
I guess we were just shoving them off and leaving them and controlling their life.
They didn't understand.
Um, so it was really difficult, but we found a place.
I flew them, um, to their place in Colorado last week and they actually love it.
They're so happy there.
And my family, we're, we feel like we are finding a whole new
rhythm and flow to our life.
And we also have this extra revelation of God's love in action.
So I'm excited to see how, what's, what's next and how to
pick things up again and move.
These divine pauses that he brings, right.
And we're in the moment, they just seem kind of maybe it feels out of control,
but in the end you just see how he works it all for good.
And it's such a great revelation.
I love that.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Thanks for letting me share that.
Of course.
I love it.
All right.
Who else do we have?
Or, um, Hillary.
Hey everyone.
So, um, I'm excited for those two testimonies because we're kind of in
that with my parents, you know, we're like running shifts on who helps mother
get daddy up, showered, ready for bed, all that stuff.
So, um, it's a, it's a privilege to, to do that for your parents.
And then just like wanting to know what, what is, um, what
are the best decisions to make?
What's the best for dignity, for love, for, you know, and so, uh, it's nice to
know, and God, God said, he's redeeming.
He's redeeming the testimony of the caregiver.
He said, it's the story of Ruth and it's my story.
And so I just like, just also bless you all with that.
It means so much to God.
So I was actually calling because yesterday I was in a meeting with my, my
membership meeting and, and I was out at the beach house and my computer fell on
the ground and my screen got all wonky and I was like, oh gosh, I mean, you know
how everything we do is on computer.
So I, um, so I right away called Apple care and they're like, actually you
didn't get Apple care on the new computer.
And I said, well, that's because we have a year and they're like, you have a year
on your warranty, but that doesn't include if you drop it.
So I was like, okay, all right.
Thank you for the information.
And then I called our insurance company because we always get a
provision, a technology provision.
And they're like, yup, you've got that provision unless you drop it.
Cause you know, I'm telling them I, it fell off my lap.
So I'm like, okay, all right.
Thanks so much.
Okay.
It's going to cost me.
So I couldn't get an appointment with Apple.
So as soon as I got back into town, I ran over to Apple and I walk in and I, I
tell them my computer fell off my lap and here's what happened.
They're like, yep, it's not covered.
You have to come back tomorrow for an appointment though.
So anyway, I'm sorry about the long story, but you know, I would
tell everyone, here's what happened.
So I came in this morning and I had this computer and I had the old one to see
if we could, you know, repair that one too.
And so he said, well, you know, show me what's wrong.
So I'll open it up and he can see the screen.
And then, so I'm talking to him and I'm talking to the other guy.
So then he said, can I take off the top?
And he does, and he's looking at it while I'm talking to the other guy.
And he said, well, all right, if, um, you know, you're within the one year
warranty and because there's no evidence of impact, um, that's free.
Otherwise we'd be having a $600 conversation.
I know it's just, it's my computer.
Everything's on it.
I'm without it for three to five days.
I'm not sure how that's going to happen.
I feel like I'm twiddling my thumbs.
So doing this on the phone anyway.
Um, I just felt like that was total favor.
Yes, it is.
And yeah, if he can do it for me, he can do it for y'all.
So yeah.
Amen.
Thank you for letting me share that.
I love it.
It's him acting in the everyday, right?
I love it.
Awesome.
Denise, did you have something you wanted to share?
I saw your hand up there.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I can't come on video because it's good to see everybody because, um, I can't, I
can't get my volume up on my phone.
I had to drive and if you don't want to be looking into my ear, so I got
the phone up to my ear anyway.
Um, anyway, I have, um,
some good news to share about. I was on a vacation last couple
weeks, and then we had a great trip. And then I also have just
come off of a sabbatical four weeks sabbatical, where I
studied the Sabbath. And in that time, I actually asked God to
show me just how to make the podcast much more doable,
because they were taking way too much time. And there was no flow
in it. And I was just getting, I don't know, it was just taking
like eight hours to do a 10 minute podcast. So anyway, it
was just not sustainable. And just God show me some things
about how being in Sabbath rest on a continuous basis. I mean,
every single week, I mean, I've conviction now to take a day
off and, and rest with him, but also throughout my week, just
being in continual walking, of course, we're always with him.
It's not just a given day, but learning how to redeem the time
and eternity just as a place for God and us to relax and be
with each other has been so life giving. And so what's happened
is out of that I've just been flowing with a lot more peace, a
lot more serenity and writing the podcast and getting such
great feedback. I was visiting some friends in North Carolina,
and they were saying, I look forward to your podcast every
day, every week, when it comes out, it's the first thing I go
for and just how it was sustaining people that I don't
even know. I didn't even know we're listening to it. So it's
just kind of encouraging. And I know it comes out of my
connection attachment with him. So that was really great.
I love that. Wow. So important to rest, right? We're seeing
that kind of across the board. Learning in such a crazy world
we have that so go go go. Oh, yeah. Take that rest. It's just
you're able to just the awareness just up a notch of all
so correct. Yes. Thank you for sharing Denise. All right. Um,
Marion, and then Amy real quick, and then we'll get started
since we started a little bit later. All right, go ahead,
Marion.
Yeah, mine is just my TikTok video that went viral 31 and a
half thousand now.
And it's just about the Holy Spirit and our guarantee. And
it's like, okay, I think I hit a nerve because so many people
don't understand that they can't lose their salvation. I mean,
it's very hard to lose your salvation.
The so I love it. Did
that need encouraging? Yeah,
and it's so true. Did you see that we featured you on our
TikTok on our
I did. Yeah.
I love it. That's amazing. And it's just it just goes to show
that consistency and working in alignment with the Holy Spirit
just it'll it'll happen. And his timing is perfect. And whoever
needed to see that particular video in that space in time. It
was all just orchestrated by him. So keep pushing everybody
Marion is an example of what it looks like to keep pushing and
showing up. I love that. Thank you, Marion. Wow. All right,
okay, real quick, this Denise, I just was tracking with your
testimony. And I thought about a phone call that I received today
from she's a lady that I've known for several years that
works at our local Dillard's, which is sadly way too close to
my house. But anyway, and so the makeup that she is the person
now at the makeup counter where I buy my my skin products. And
anyway, they have some kind of a special that I was going to need
to give her my credit card. And she called me that she her
husband for the past two years has been battling lymphoma. And
she is I think they're about 4647. So they're young, and they
have two boys, and he has had a recent, you know, relapse and
recurrence. And it's in his, his, his bones, it's in his
brain. And he's looking at a bone marrow transplant. And, and
so I have been able to go in on, you know, every time I go, and
she is not able to really be with him. Because she has to
work, they need her insurance from from Dillard's. And I'm
giving you their names, Lucy and Jose. So you all can pray for
them. I've had our peer team at church praying for him, I will
just go in and throw my arms around her and just pray all
over her. And, and I've never met Jose, but he knows I'm
praying. Well, today, and she's told
me. She said, I watch your podcasts all the time. And she
said, yesterday, I went home for lunch and Jose and I watched
together and she said, Amy, they're ministering to him and
and he's he's getting encouragement because he's, I
mean, he's fighting and he's in so my prayers for him to stay
encouraged and for this bone marrow transplant to do the
trick and for God to heal him.
And amen. We just it's just so amazing to me. Thank you for
sharing that how you just never know. You never know who God is,
is preparing for you and and that connection that he's got
it's it the timing is just so perfect. And sometimes our
hesitation will will make us lose the testimony for ourselves.
Right? And it's, it's just so it's so fantastic. And I'll,
I'll tell you really quickly how how that connects with me. And
then we'll get straight into questions, because I know you
guys have some, but that reminds me of one time I was with my 11
year old, one of my older twin girl, and we were in Target. And
we had already finished checking out we were heading to the car
with a full cart. And a woman and a man walked by me and I
noticed them and then as soon as they passed by, I felt the Holy
Spirit say, stop and pray for her. And I was standing there
with my full cart. And I was like, Lord, but I have ice
cream and all the things that are gonna melt. I just really
need to get home. We've been at Target too long already spent
much I need to get out of here. And, and for some reason, I was
literally like stuck in time, I was stuck in that space. And
then, and then I said, Okay, fine, I'll go back. So here's
the first lesson on hesitation. If I had just done it in that
moment, I wouldn't have had to go back into Target to actually
be on a stealth mission to find her. So we went back in, and we
finally we found her. And I went up to her and I said, I'm
sorry, but I just really felt a nudge from the Holy Spirit to
pray for you. Is that okay? And she does look blank space face
like so much Yes, please. So I prayed over her. And then I
looked at her after I opened my eyes and tears were just
streaming down her face. And then the gentleman and tears
were streaming down his face. And I was a little confused
because I didn't know what the situation was. But she just
turned to me and she said, Thank you so much. You are an angel.
God literally sent me an angel. And, and I was like, Well, I'm
happy to that that that you feel God's presence right now. And
then I turned to the gentleman and he said, You don't
understand. She has terminal cancer. And, and then she, she
turned and looked at me and she was crying. And she said, This
week, I felt like God had forgotten me. And you came to
remind me that he still loves me and he sees me in the middle of
this. And so for me, it was just such a powerful example of us
being willing to be obedient to the nudge to the calling that
he's given each and every one of you your voice matters. Your
voice matters. And it was such a great example for my daughter,
because I could walk. I'm like, remember when I was standing
there, and I just wouldn't move. And she thought that was really
strange. And then I made her go back into the store. So I was
showing her you know, you when he tells you there's a reason
timing is important for each of you to show up in your specific
ministry. Your timing is important to him. And to and to
the ultimate plan that he has. So I just want to encourage you
all that right now we he's calling us to step up I feel
very much I'm very much kind of a warrior spirit. I have that in
me and and I just feel that that right now he's really calling us
into the huddle as kingdom messengers and saying, Look, I
want you to come into the huddle so I can give you the next play.
You just need to be here so that I can give you the next play and
you can hear the next play and you can be ready to move in that
and don't worry about the words. Don't worry about the graphics.
Don't worry, but I will line it up just like he did in target. I
will line it up and that's that's the firm foundation that
we want to stand on as we as we
move as kingdom warriors, as messengers of a word that is life-giving, literally, literally.
So okay, I could talk forever, so let's go ahead and jump into a question that you may have,
and we will get at it. Now let me say, I may not have the answer to all of your questions,
but if I don't, I will get it for you, and we will do a separate video, and I'll upload it
to the group, but I'm happy to answer anything that you guys may have pending. You know, my
specialty is content creation, and some of the tech within that, so I'm happy to help, but let's
see what comes up. So go ahead and unmute to have a question. Who's up first?
Marion, did you have something? I did. I've been putting things on anchor every week,
ever since I started, which is probably 10 months. I've looked back and over the page,
down and down, not a single person has listened. So how do you get people? What is the point?
You know, I'm wondering if I should bother putting things on anchor.
Well, one of the things about having a podcast is you have to let people know that you have a
podcast, so that they can watch. Yes. Okay. So what I would recommend that you do is, for example,
one of your posts on TikTok, on Instagram, one of your reels could be, guess what? Did you know
that I have a podcast? And you can listen to it there, and I explain in depth what I've been
giving you in little golden nuggets here. You may want to do that, and you could do a call to action
with the name of the podcast and say, let me know in the comments if you went and checked it out. So
giving them something to do and kind of like how I was sharing, hey, we opened up our TikTok for
Kingdom Messenger. Let me know if you signed up, right? If you're following it. Can I do that on
Facebook or? On everything. Any of them. Okay. Yeah. That's good. Now, one more question.
I think it's TikTok. I have one man, it says he's a pastor. He keeps video calling me.
Like, I think it's a video call. It starts to ring. It sounds like my phone ringing.
I haven't answered at all yet. I looked him up. He's got a private account.
He's a pastor, but it's private, and he only has seven followers.
No, I would block him, Miriam. No one has the liberty to phone you.
Well, it wasn't on my phone. It was like... Right, right, and through the app. Because like,
even like, let's say Facebook Messenger, I could send somebody a video call, right,
or an audio call. Okay. But I didn't know... Yeah. I didn't even know you could do that.
Okay. Yeah. There's certain etiquette within social media, right, that you... that you just
know. Okay. If you want to go deeper with someone, you... you text back and forth, and then you see
if that's a good fit. Yeah. Thank you. That's good. Good, good. Excellent. I can't wait to
hear about your podcast on your channel. Yeah. All right. Hilary, you have a question?
Yeah. You said, okay, my specialty is content creation, and I'm like, okay, let me throw this
at Monica and see what comes out. So, what I was doing, especially for
women traumatized by narcissistic, codependent, destructive relationships, was I would...
God has given me a series, a whole, like, kind of framework. So, I would bring them through first
the journey to freedom challenge, so they would understand where wilderness is, and how to move
into promised land. And then we would go through the enjoying your life challenge for two weeks to
kind of understand what it takes to make the choices to enjoy the life God's given you and
not blame anybody else for your life, but it's so empowering. And then we would go through
a deep dive, a 30-day deep dive called Sweet Secrets of Success from the Sermon on the
Mountain. He said, you tell them, if they'll sit at my feet for just an hour a day seeking
the one thing that's needful, I'll give them what they ask for.
or in a way nobody can take it from them
and I will renew their root system.
And so, and then we would go from there into,
so that was all coming out
of the Taste & See Freedom Free Group
and then into the Taste & See Empowerment Membership.
So I was bringing people in, just small pods
because I never advertised or anything like that.
And so anyway, it was so powerful.
I mean, they're still with me
but I stopped everything a year ago
because it's not sustainable the way I was doing it.
I haven't, you know, pretty, like someone said to me,
so is this someone else's framework or is this yours?
And I, I like, I held it back.
I started to cry because I felt,
well, God's given me this framework
and I haven't, he's given me so much to produce
and I don't even know where to begin.
So I just thought, okay, Monica just said that.
I'm just going to throw all this out there
and see what the Lord tells you
because I need to start fresh.
And what, so what I, what I do,
what I am doing with my time,
I mean, I still do my membership for the three groups
and then I do heart healings.
I do prophetic coaching.
I do Kingdom Entrepreneurial Coaching
and, and consultation, stuff like that.
So anyway, I don't know what to say.
Yeah, so what you're looking to do is,
are you looking to condense
or kind of consolidate what you created,
all of that framework that you created?
So you've got two challenges that leads to that 60 day.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then into community, which has been,
I mean, the whole, every single step
has been so transformative.
Honestly, it's so powerful.
So, and, and I have mostly female clients.
I now am getting more male clients
that I wasn't even, you know, pursuing.
What's happening is like female clients are saying,
I gave you as a gift to my husband for Christmas.
I'm like, I'm a Christmas present.
And then, and then they bought a package,
you know, stuff like that.
But, so I know it's about freedom
and it's about breakthrough.
So.
Yeah.
So ultimately what you're trying to do
is get them into the community,
the membership community, right?
And the challenges are a way for them to experience you.
And then the upgrade or the special place
where you guys hang out is in that membership.
So, are you, I don't think you need two challenges.
I think you could start with one
and place the other challenge within the membership
as part of a secondary process,
if you're looking to consolidate.
Like the enjoying your life, probably.
Yes.
You can do that.
And one thing I would recommend inside of a membership
just to keep being fresh
because either have an open membership
or a closed membership.
I don't know what kind you have.
It's been closed, but I need, I just need,
I need to revamp everything
so that I can see it clearly.
And it's like, here's what it looks like.
And I'm not throwing balls in the air
and then keeping them in the air with,
because what I would do,
it's kind of a discipleship process.
Actually, we're going through something.
So each new group that came in
had started at the beginning, but it required me.
And that's like, that's,
I mean, I love meeting with everybody,
but I think bringing everybody together
is more beneficial.
And then, you know, maybe groups, I'm not sure.
Okay.
So I have a recommendation.
So this is what I would do
for anybody wanting to do a membership style group
is it's really important to have a roadmap for them.
Just like we're talking about
the kingdom messenger roadmap.
It is your success for them.
What you're talking about going from the wilderness
to the promised land.
You could call it that.
That is the roadmap.
And what are the pit stops that in the wilderness
to get to the promised land?
Most of the time roadmaps or success paths have,
you know, four or five, six steps maximum
that are just like the main anchors and within each one.
So let's say everybody might be at a different stage
of that roadmap,
but what you can do is you can create
pre-recorded videos that give an explanation
of each one of those stages.
What are the main features?
And what are the milestones that you need
to get from stage.
One, two, and then from six.
So don't go to stage three if you haven't completed stage two.
So it's really important.
And this goes for not only memberships or anything else,
but you can think of your own assignments.
I call audience assignments your own assignments.
What kind of journey are you taking them through?
Are you just giving them content and wanting
them to figure it out on their own,
or are you taking them somewhere?
Where is the ultimate place that you want to take them?
And right now, you are probably in your beginning stage
of just creating content.
So maybe you haven't thought that far.
But today, I'll challenge you the next level, which is,
where do I want them to go with this?
What is the outcome that I want for those people listening
to this to have, either with me or with somebody else?
Am I recommending something for them to participate in,
or am I creating something for them to participate in?
And so then, Hillary, in your success path,
you can have, what are milestones
that they need to reach for every part?
So that if they were to come in in a place
where you guys are working on stage three,
but they're stage one, it's OK because they can catch up
from the pre-recorded videos to those parts.
And you can have maybe PDFs or whatever extra resources
you need.
And they can, when you do maybe, I
don't know if it's a weekly or a monthly live,
or how often you speak with them,
you could ask them questions that
relate to each stage, depending on where they're at,
so that they don't feel like they're behind or ahead
or whatever it may be.
But you have something that will address each person,
meet them at their point of meeting on the questions
that you're asking.
And so consolidation is really easy.
It'll be very easy for you to maintain
when you create the success path that literally loops around
over and over and over again.
Because even if they were to reach stage five,
you might be saying, well, they're pretty much done.
Why would they continue?
It's not true.
We're always evolving in the spirit.
And so there's always a new challenge also with time
that's to our life that's going to push us
into that next level.
But you've created such a strong foundation
that it will almost say, OK, you can go back to step one,
but in light of this new situation that you're facing.
And able to go through the steps even quicker now
that they've been through it once.
Does that make sense?
Oh, totally.
I mean, even the groups ahead, I've
kind of opened up the other ones so that they
can come in if they want.
And people are allowed to hear things
they couldn't even hear before.
There is like the ones that were ahead
are actually getting the more breakthrough, which actually
stirs up the ones coming in from behind.
So that's pretty cool.
Oh, it grows me, of course, each time.
And so, yeah, I've already begun trying
to do something like that.
So what do you think about like a,
do you think there's room there?
Or I should even consider kind of a 90-day sprint?
Or is that a good just to bring everybody into?
Because like the empowerment is that discussion on sonship.
And the Lord, I was like, why do you want them through this?
It's the 30 days is amazing.
Nobody wants it to end.
The whole thing that he's done is amazing.
Blows my mind.
But I was always like, why do we have to do this?
And he said, because they have to learn
how valued they are as daughters before they can even
enter into the conversation as sons.
And so there's definitely intentionality behind these.
This is what I would do.
I would have those three months, those 90 days,
almost like as a course, although you're teaching it
live.
But let's consider that like a course.
And then the follow up, because they're
going to need the extra support, accountability,
community, all of that.
That comes at the tail end of that.
Continue in that space forever.
But you need to have lived and experienced this in order
to be part of this community that can support you
in the rest of the process.
Yeah, it's a whole new.
mindset. I mean, you're absolutely right. So okay. So
and that that's how I've been doing it. Like they each portion
is its own thing. And then once they get into the membership, I
open the door for them to do all of it forever. And they, you
know, so okay. All right, gosh, you've kind of just affirmed
what I was doing only told me I have, I have more work to do. I
can't I can't just keep showing up. I had to produce something.
So
here's the one thing about community is because you have
all of us have a lot of content. We have a lot of life
experiences and downloads from God and all of that. Here's the
problem. The people who are listening are don't have all
the time that we have. We all have different amounts of time
to consume. We may be able to create it, but they might not
have as much time to consume it. So what would be the most
important things that they need so that we also don't overwhelm
them, so that they feel that they are behind less is when it
comes to memberships when it comes to groups, because it
gives people a win. Everybody loves to have a win. So if you
can get a win for them immediately, and make those
easy to achieve, you will get more movement, because we have
information overload anyways. Yeah. Yeah, God will highlight
for you what are the most important pieces. So so for
example, let's say Marion made a 10 minute video on YouTube, and
she's going to create a reel out of that 10 minutes, she's going
to go through the whole 10 minutes and find the one minute
that really hones in on the main message. And that's what she's
going to give everybody. That's the same thing that you would
do. Any of you would do you're going to hone it down so that
they can get a win like an aha, so that they don't have to
overthink it or overanalyze it or, or ask themselves what does
what really saying so that it needs this long explanation.
It's like it's boom, it's there, they receive it, and they're
ready to move on to the next.
So then is that the thing? So Marion's one minute that she's
expanded, like, that's the one kind of word or phrase that's
woven into that theme, so they can identify with that, like,
that's, that's what you're focused on today.
Exactly, exactly. Not only today, but within this stage,
let's say, framework, you know, you make it very simple, like in
this space, all I'm going to focus on is this one thing, I'm
good, these are the milestones that I need to accomplish it.
And these are the things that I need to get done here in order
to graduate to the next one.
Wow. That's so good.
You make it very easy. The, the courses that I have finished,
and trust me, I have spent a lot of money on a lot of courses
over my 30 years being an entrepreneur. And the ones I can
honestly say that I have finished are the ones that were
all two to five minute videos, I don't care if there were 30 of
them, but there were five minute videos that I could consume when
I was waiting in the car when I was, you know, sitting anywhere.
And then, and it just, it just went is like I wanted more, just
like you get to the next and the next and the next is because you
get a win. So the shorter you can make it even if you want to
give them all of that, split it up into 10, you know, you have
to, but they will consume it and they will complete it. Because
did you know that I think it's in the 90th percentile of people
complete a course, which is very sad, because the content that
they're, you know, given to give people is for consumption for
them to use for their life. Most people won't finish it. So
wow. Yes. Is your favorite way then to trip it on a daily or
weekly basis for the win? Or no, I give I like to personally it
depends on how people like to consume. I like to have it all
because if I have one day where I have time to watch five videos
that are you know, two to three minutes long, I'll do it. I'll
accelerate my speed. Now if you have them going through a
process where they need you live, then maybe I wouldn't give
them the information to go super far ahead, right? That doesn't
make sense if it's if it's going along with you. So so that's
that's something I would take into account as you as you see
what kind of content you want to give them.
Awesome. Excellent feedback. Want to
But thank you so much, you are welcome.
All right, do we have any other hands or any questions or comments.
On that.
Let me know I think it's really important it's funny how you know, while we may be talking about a course or a membership it really applies.
To everything let's say you're making a story for either you know let's say Facebook or instagram your stories also can.
A stages, it can almost have like a template where is it that you are looking to let's not okay right now i'm just going to show you, you know, a picture of my cool flower pen.
And then the next one i'm going to pray for you and the next one i'm going to show you, you know my line water and then next one i'm going to show you my little you know where it's kind of all over the place.
it's also just thinking ahead Okay, what kind of experience, this is all about.
I want to go, you know when you go to a certain store let's take amy's dealers right she goes she'll drive the extra mile to that dealer because she knows.
That the experience, there is one worth going to.
We all have certain stores, even if it's the same store oh no I, like the one in this city better because.
it's a different vibe a different feeling there, so what kind of experience, what kind of emotions, are you stirring up in people as you take them through a process of experiencing God side by side with you.
it's very important to take that into account sometimes we're so just focused on, am I doing it right, am I figuring out you know what words, should I say, but it becomes very like personal.
And it, and this is just the content that i'm creating and i'm hoping i'm doing it right, I do want to help people, but, but let me focus and make sure that i've that i've got it figured out.
That i've got it figured out, and so, while that's all very important to be in alignment with God and all of that, and a second step to that is how am I bringing people into the experience of God with me and taking them somewhere.
Just like we don't like being stuck so we show up for the open coaching calls.
Your people who are listening to you don't like being stuck So how are you going to take them through that experience it's all about experience, the next time that you go on.
To someone that you like to follow on social media or even you know your favorite starbucks or whatever it may be.
start paying attention to the experience, why do you keep going back to them, what is it about them that's drawing you to them.
and see if you can pick up a few hints not to copy but to say well, how do I do it differently.
Or it might be the same but guess what it's a different mouth that speaking it out and i'm a say a few different words than them or people, even if it's the let's say it's the exact same words, but people are going to receive it differently from Marion than myself.
Right God has our own story that we are that he has us placed in so even if it's the exact same thing and that's why.
So awesome she's always like I don't care if you copy my content right she's always saying that you know just take it all and to me as an entrepreneur hearing that like.
My mouth fell to the floor because everybody is so protective of their content in the business world and so but it's really she she she got the download from God it's the it's not the content it's the person.
They come for.
And I would rather hear Marion tell me about salvation than Monica today Marion I feel like she's let's say you know someone listening, I just feel like I need someone like Marion to speak into me today.
And you all, as you consume content have those people that you go to like you know what this person is a little tougher, I think I need a little tough love today, let me go see what the person has on their content or you know what I just need a.
touch i'm done with the you know, with the hardcore go, go, go, I need someone to just like speak peace into me i'm going to go look at this person.
Right and so you're able to to decide or or acknowledge and accept you know, who am I, as I show up and lean into that lean into that some people are very.
very bold behind the scenes.
But when they come onto the camera,
they don't show up that way.
They're very reserved because they're
wanting to be accepted by whoever's listening to them.
And they're scared that if they're bold in the way
that they say it behind the scenes, they may be rejected.
And the truth is that people love when you
know where you're standing.
They want to follow people who are standing firm.
They want to follow people who are
strong in their values and their convictions
because everybody else is wishy-washy.
Everybody else is.
So I need, if I don't have that person in my personal home
or workplace or family, I need to find that one person who
knows exactly where they stand.
And then I can identify with them.
I can latch on to their faith when I don't have faith.
And I can walk with them and have
them help lead me to where I know I'm supposed to be.
That's why you guys are all leaders.
That's right, Hilary, a hug or a weak kick in the face.
That's exactly right.
So I hope that helps just in the way that you're
viewing how you are showing up.
The first step was Lindsay and Bruce basically
got you to a place where, yay, you're there.
You have a presence.
Now it's time to start developing that presence
in a way where you feel very excited about the powerful word
that the Lord has given you.
And don't diminish that because of what
you think you have or don't have.
His word is truth, and it stands on its own
regardless if it comes out of you or anybody else.
And so your only job on a daily basis
is to say yes or no to the invitation
that he gives you to participate, to share that word.
And when you do, guess what?
You get life.
Because as you speak it out of your mouth,
you are literally speaking life to others and to yourself
because to you it's a confirmation.
Like, wow, Lord, I didn't even know that I had that in me.
I didn't even know.
That's what happened to me in 2022.
Every day sitting in this.
And sometimes I would be in that bed, deathly sick,
and I would crawl over to this seat.
And as soon as I would sit, all of my ailments would go away.
And I would talk for 30 to 45 minutes with zero preparation.
That is how the Lord works.
All he needs is your yes.
And so it's amazing to be able to see him just
like morph you into that new creation
where you're able to little by little,
as you say yes every day.
Yes, not every video is going to be awesome.
Not all the views are going to be there.
But that 30,000 plus people, you better
believe, Marion, that in that one video
you have literally planted the seed of legacy.
It's no small thing.
It's no small feat.
But guess what?
In that video that only got two views, the same thing happened.
The same thing happened.
And those two people are just as important as the 30,000
in the eyes of God.
And so it's a reason to rejoice.
If you're looking at numbers, that's the enemy.
You're looking at it through the enemy's eyes, to be honest.
Because it's a distraction.
It's a distraction from what he's
called you to do, which is to be bold, to be a messenger.
The angels would come, and they would appear to people.
They were messengers of God.
They are messengers of God.
And people would freak out.
And what's the first thing they would say?
Fear not.
Like, you know, calm down.
Take a chill pill.
Everything's fine.
I am here.
I am here to give you a good word.
When you show up, you are a messenger.
You are a messenger.
And there are some people out there
who may freak out by your message
because they don't know what you're talking about.
goes so against the grain of what they're used to hearing.
And it's literally like nails on a chalkboard.
It's like nails on a chalkboard.
And the Lord was telling me yesterday,
your job is to be the sound of nails on chalkboard.
Why?
Because that is what my word does.
It's like you're shaking the tree so that the fruit can
fall off that's not supposed to be there.
And the one that's supposed to grow and be tasty and be eaten
can stand firm and grow on that tree.
And so we are disruptors.
We are disruptors.
And we need to be OK being that.
Yes, Hilary.
And I love that you just said that about the nails
on the chalkboard, because sometimes that's
what the Lord has in mind.
And sometimes he says, be the nectar.
So that what they taste is so sweet
that they'll drop the trash.
They'll walk away from the junk.
Because he said to me, you know how I fight my battles?
I show up.
What's darkness when the light shows up?
What's the storm when peace is in the house?
What can death say if life is speaking to everyone present?
And where's fear if love is flooding
through the hearts and minds?
So it's whatever.
When we're sucking from the vine, he knows what's needed.
We're just sucking for dear life.
And he knows what needs to come out the other end.
And so I love that you said that,
because it's not for us to decide.
But if that's what happens, that's not our source.
However they respond, whatever happens,
we weren't looking for something from them anyway.
I mean, we've just got some fruit.
If they want it, they can have it.
If not, they can pass on and eat from the branch next door.
And that because our source is that sucking.
And if we're filled with what's vital life,
then some will partake of that.
And others will react to it.
But that's a seed sown.
If it's chalkboard, we don't have to worry about it.
It's like, oh, I'm sorry you didn't love that.
It's awesome for me.
That's OK.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It will be for specific people.
Your content is not just something,
OK, let me see what I came up with
or what the Lord even gave me.
It's literally, he's like, OK, who do I
want to reach today through Amy?
Who do I want to reach today through Tamara?
OK, let me put these words in her mouth, in her heart,
and let her speak it out so that it
can stir the spirit of that person waiting
on the other side, right?
So important.
Susie, did you have a question?
Well, a question, comment.
I just wanted to thank you so much for the fingernails
on the chalkboard, because that is what I've been afraid.
You know, talking Greek, who wants to hear Greek?
And I realize that now some of my favorite Bible verses
were ones that were fingernails.
You know, you are dead, by the way.
Or ones that I just didn't get are like, oh,
in everything give thanks.
Are you shitting?
Are you kidding?
And to not be afraid, because what I am speaking is, oh, no.
You know, the mind you've always relied on?
How about if we listen to the Holy Spirit?
Well, how do we do that?
I don't know, but he does.
You know, it's just so annoying.
And I talk about our core, and people say, I have no idea.
And do you have to use that word?
Can you use another word?
No, I don't know another word.
You know, just the whole thing is so messy.
And so I'm, OK, I've always known embrace the messiness,
but I never liked it.
And so, yeah, I'm excited.
And those Bible verses that we look at and we say, yeah, yeah,
that's nice.
I've memorized them.
I know them.
And then God brings up, and it's like, ah, no, I didn't know them.
And that's kind of a different form,
but that God does come back and highlight
Bible verses that are annoying.
So certainly, I need to be annoying also.
We're not afraid of being annoying.
Exactly, exactly.
And I love that you.
said it's messy because the first thing that came to mind to me was so was the cross.
Yeah and you know it I love that because it's those troublesome passages that have kept us
before the Lord like what are you saying even for years that then when they're brought to life in us
like there's nothing no gate of hell can prevail against us that's a good word that's really good
exactly and in today's world when it comes to social media when it comes to content the truth
is if you strive to be like everyone else and just be in the status quo you will never stand out and
you will get lost in the sea of other fishes saying the same thing and so if you really
want to go viral in order to have the word heard by more people be the bold person be the messy
person the one willing to share the true word that he's given you the real word the convicting word
the spirit shaking word that he's given you that's how people will perk up either they will
define themselves let them define themselves don't have you conform to them so they'll like you let
them define themselves this hit home for me shoot I've never heard it this way or yeah that's not
for me and that's how the Lord does his sifting but the only way he can do that is you being
willing to be with be messy I was showing this earlier for what Amy was you know so that she
would witness but I this just reminds me of how messy it is to bring you know I don't know if you
guys can see what his crown is saying but Jesus did all this so he could say be healed be healed
I have a stripe for that I have a stripe for that too and I'm not ashamed be healed be healed and
boy you can't get messier than that so that that's good you're right I love this conversation
one more thought what you were saying Monica as a people person people pleaser and I actually
believe God put that in us because he wants us to please him it's just gotten distorted and so yes
that that heart to please but I realized I had to come to the realization I was being manipulative
because I was not presenting myself in a way that people had the freedom to reject
I had to be somebody that somebody who didn't want what I was would reject
and that I was actually being manipulative by trying to be what they wanted
it exactly right that's exactly right so now it's literally like the Lord is saying
today starting today if you haven't had this conviction before you are free I give you
permission to be free and to be who I created you to be in the face of the world
and it's amazing it's amazing
yep that's why I have the it is finished here on my arm because it's my daily reminder I have
to remember that I have to it is done I am the new creation and I have to rise up as such
every day every day I love it yes Amy okay this is just a quick prophetic moment but
I had a dream last night and I had a dream the night before and the dream yesterday that I woke
up to was disturbing like and I was just like you know just talking to the Lord about it because it
sort of you know felt like one of those clouds over my head and so basically it I didn't let it
set the tone of my day I just worshiped the Lord all day you know and it was fine but I knew he
would tell me what was behind this behind this dream which it was like I was in the military
and I messed up doing something and the person that let me do it is the one that really got in
the worst trouble but I was in trouble and anyway you know I just I don't like being in trouble
you know so anyway so that you know woke up and I just thought that was
weird. And, and really just had a wonderful day of worship. But
last night, as I was preparing dinner, I, I had this thought
that, I mean, it was just clearly the Holy Spirit in just
the kindest way, saying, telling me that, basically, there was a
lid on top of my thinking. And, and, and that it was really like
a remnant of performance, where it was like, like, I, there's
always the fear of that I'm not doing everything right. I mean,
just to be really honest. And, but I was listening to a song
about being held in his arms, and just about being held by the
Father's love. And I felt so loved by him. And then he spoke
this word to me. And so last night, I had a dream. And
really, if you just measured the circumstances in both dreams, it
should have been completely disturbing. Because the
situation I entered into, I stepped into to minister Jesus
to these people that didn't know him. And they, I mean, like,
they despaired of life and were just willing to just like, die
because of their life wasn't what they wanted it to be. And
so, but I stepped in, and I was just like ministering. And I was
just, you know, ministering Jesus. And I was, like, in
charge, and just like, like reordering, and they were
receiving, receiving. And so this morning, I, you know, I was
thinking about the dream, and I just came to the Lord. And he
showed me the contrast, that there was this, like, it was
like a, a background, like this, it's sort of a looming
background, that is beyond notice, without the light of the
Holy Spirit. But that it was, it was something that he was
removing. And, and so I got second Corinthians 10, which is,
you know, really about the mind of Christ, and the authority
that the mind of Christ in our thinking, and, and, you know,
it's the very in the passion translation, it says, it's as
soon as you choose complete obedience to the mind of Christ,
basically. And I knew, you know, of course, I've submitted
myself to that. And he said, this one thing in the in the
background of your thinking, was created like a maze or a
labyrinth of your thinking, and with a ceiling of it where you
could only go so far in your thinking, and that is, is coming
out because it was like it was putting a lid even on my worship
yesterday, in a very, very subtle way. And I was having to
push against something. And so, you know, and I, and I know
that's gonna be my next episode, because I'm, this week's is
going to be about my testimony about performance and
perfection. And they're going with me on the journey, you
know?
Yeah. It's like, come with me on the journey of performance and
perfection. Yeah, let's see where we identify and let me
show you how the Lord showed me a way out of it. Yeah. I love
it. That's so good. Thank you for sharing. All right, guys. Do
you? Is there anyone else who has any final questions? Thank
you so much, everyone for sharing. This has been awesome.
And I want to keep you longer. I know we started a little late.
Did you have
I was typing something and we don't have time. I just wanted
to point out, my Greek to Amy, you know, take every thought. I
used to think of those thoughts as individual thoughts. But the
word is actually thought processes, ways of thinking, not
individual thoughts. And that's the same word in 11.3, where it
says where I'm at, but I'm afraid, lest as a serpent
deceived Eve by his craftiness, that your mind should be led
astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.
And and it's this that your minds in 11.3 is the same word,
I am, you know, I am concerned that your, your minds and that
led astray, that word is actually shriveled, dried up.
And and so the tying in between our thought processes, taking
them captive to obey Jesus, and to the simplicity
that's due to Christ and that that's life, not shriveling.
That is so good, Susie.
Yeah, because that was the word, I mean, I wrote a lot
and the word was, I mean, about the mindset.
It was like this subtle thing that is in opposition
to Jesus and to the light of the gospel.
But honestly, I felt rescued this morning by the Lord.
But anyway, thank you, Susie.
Yeah, I love, love, love your podcast.
Yes, now Susie's gonna show up tomorrow
for her next episode, just like ready to do the ball.
Yes, Marion.
I just want to thank you, Monica,
because I have learned so much today
and it's been so alive.
The whole conversation has been just so great.
You are so different to Lindsay and Bruce,
but you have a lot to offer.
Yeah.
And so it's been really good.
Thank you.
Oh, thank you so much.
I really appreciate that.
And that's why we work as teams, right?
So that we get a little bit of everything
and the body of Christ just gets stronger.
So I love that.
I love that.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you for showing up today as usual.
And thank you for your patience
and us getting things set up with tech.
Tech is always an adventure.
And we cannot wait to see how you show up this week.
And this Thursday, there will be no masterclass, correct?
So we will see you again next Tuesday, God willing.
And I cannot wait just to see what God is going to do.
I can't wait to hear the news next Tuesday.
So God bless everybody.
And we will see you next time.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, thank you.
Take care, everybody.
Awesome, awesome job.
Thank you.
