SHOW NOTES!

“Friendship! Friendship is the weapon and we are fighting for worship!”- Suzy

“I value myself and my gift but I value trusting the Lord more.”- Kim

on women in leadership-

“I think I am a smarter and better leader when I tune into the things God put inside me as a woman.”

“The best growth of my life has always come from good feedback.” – Kim

a thought to end with-

“Balance implies there is some perfect way to strive for. Flexibility is a better word. We need to be flexible and willing to change and shift as we ask Holy Spirit for strategies in every step along the way. Be flexible and try not to hold on so tight to the way we think our lives should go.” - Kim

Most holy moment. 1:15:12 in Kim’s Prayer

“It can feel kind of lonely as a woman worship leader. I ask that you would bring friendships to the listeners- some who might say, ‘I wish I had friendships like that. Friendships with kindness and loyalty and with hearts ready to give, love and serve.”
