From Broken to Bold: How to Share Your Testimony & Step Into Your Calling {Part 3 with Christy}
In the final part of this powerful series, Christy opens up about what it looks like to step into your purpose after a radical encounter with Jesus. She and Melissa discuss how to share your testimony with others, how to simplify your message to connect with people who don’t know church language, and why your story matters more than you think.
Melissa offers real-time coaching to help Christy walk out her calling—from starting a Bible study in her apartment to discerning what’s from God and what’s a distraction. They also talk about resting, healing, and avoiding spiritual counterfeits online.
If you’ve felt like God is calling you to speak, teach, or simply share what Jesus has done in your life, this episode will give you practical steps, encouragement, and permission to start where you are.
