Welcome to Beyond Believing: Helping Christian Women Heal Post Divorce

In this episode, Katie showcases that just like it's impossible to capture the beauty of nature in a paragraph, it is just as impossible to see other humans as the likeness of God, made in His image, without abiding in Him and harnessing our tongue as we watch carefully the words we say. She points us to the Book of James, in a section of chapter 3 called "Taming the Tongue." Did you know James warns us about the tongue that both praises God and curses His created beings? The Christmas season can be tough for Christian women who are healing from the trauma of divorce, but this message helps to remind us all that God has a plan and purpose for us. What motivates Katie the most in watching her words and being mindful of the preciousness of God's creation is her own children's experience. She wants to be sure she teaches them by example Godly behavior in this post-divorce healing process.

Katie makes reference in this episode to:

Katie Anne is a Woman of God, a Certified Life Coach, a single mother of five amazing humans, and a woman whose journey through divorce deepened her faith and reshaped her future in ways she never expected. Growing up in the LDS (Mormon) religion, she always believed she had the "truth" of the gospel. All of that was radically challenged after she was encouraged to read the Bible and defend the truths she was taught to believe in. After embracing the teachings of Jesus from the Bible, her faith journey has profoundly changed her life and the facts she has come to recognize. This podcast is aimed at supporting divorced Christian women over 40 to navigate their paths with faith in God, grace, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.

Coming to learn and understand relationships, love, and marriage through Bible facts and the Word of God, Katie discovered how deeply intertwined its teachings were with the tools she had learned as a LifeCoach, and she is here to teach you how to understand that the power of the Bible's teachings are more relevant and applicable to your life today than ever. With Katie, you'll learn how to understand the concepts of the Bible and how to apply them into your life with the knowledge and training I've received as a Life Coach.

In each episode, we'll explore the powerful intersection of Christianity and thought work, uncovering how our beliefs and the stories we tell ourselves shape our lives, and more importantly, relationships. You'll learn practical strategies for becoming more aware of your thoughts, how they connect to Biblical teachings of Christ, and ways to align them with the life and love you know God has in store for you.
