I appreciate your prayers!
Thank you for your prayers as I enter a tough season this summer of vision-casting for the ministry, which will result in the finalization of our new curriculum development. And...please let me know how I can pray for you. Hugs, katieb
Dear Katie: I hope to begin my training sometime in June and very eager to get started. Today as I was reading PTP I realized that I am actually living out one of my life dreams...to impact other women's lives. PTP has become an important part of this fulfillment. Isn't God soooo amazing how He was able to use your story, move you to tell it, write about it and teach it as an inspiration to others!
After hearing you in Florida I was moved my your sensitivity to the spirit and your obvious dependency on God despite your stories of saying "no" to him. It's your transparency and willingness to be honest that encourages other women that there is MORE.
My prayers are that the vision becomes clear as you seek His will for the next level for the ministry and also that God will provide you with the necessary discernment and wisdom required to maintain the vision to its fruition.
I am learning to enjoy the ride on the way to where I am going!
Yes please know I am praying for you and all that you will be doing this summer.
I am ready to begin level two, pray that God will provide the money needed for this to happen.
I am so excited about what God is doing. I have just put together a proposal for our Church to beign a invisable illness ministry and I will be usuing my training in level one and futher traning in levels to lead this ministry. God Bless debbie
Dear Katieb, Thank you for your passion and vision in leading this transformational ministry. We all love you and thank God for the coaching and life plan facilitation experience. This is an awesome gift we can share with all the world. It is an incredible experience when we share in God's freedom, inspiration and hope for changing lives. Thank you for sharing your life, His story and training so many more to go out and do likewise. Our prayers are with you for God to increase His richest blessings for all. Be courageous and strong as you continue this journey. Looking forward to the next steps of Levels 5 & 4. Love always in Jesus, CJS
Dear Katie, I want to tell you how much your book Pathway to Purpose has meant to me. I am a twice divorced single mother of 3 kids (ages 20, 18 & 18). I had my children at a young age and have experienced many trials in my life. Until reading your book, I thought I was unworthy because of my trials, when in reality God put me through those trials to help me minister to others. I have been wrought with shame for so long, that I can finally begin to see my purpose in life and i have you to thank. Because you write in such a heartfelt honest manner, you have allowed me to really learn from your writing. I am excited to say that i will be signing up to become a Life Coach and hopeful to begin my classes in August. Thank you so much for your guidance.
I pray that you will find peace during this season in your life and that you will emerge with more glorious teachings to minister to the women that have already grown to love hearing your words and God's word through you.
I have come across your website which took me to your blog. I am excited yet scared about my new adventure with Pathway to Purpose Ministry. I live in Virginia and will be contacting Sylvia. I can hardly stay in my seat. Please pray for me; that I will listen to the prompting of the Holy Spirit on this new path of life. Thank you.
Katie, It is an exciting time for you, as well as your ministry. I will be praying wisdom, revelation, and encouragement for you as you enter this new season.
I'm also over-the-top excited about getting started in training. I look forward to the plans that God has through this.
I pray that God would sovereignly protect you and take the lead in facilitating this ministry. I ask for favor, for the right people to help you, for wisdom and guidance and for protection and provision for your health, energy, relationships, possessions and all that is yours.
Lord God, thank you for the vision you have given Katie for helping people steward their giftings and callings. We want your full plan and purpose to be realized through her and every woman in this ministry for your glory!
Thank you Katie for your obedience and inspiration to us all!
God's hand is so evident in this ministry. What a powerful position when women of God realize their giftings and callings and move out to fulfill them! You are equipping and motivating an army to move for the will of God!
Lord, please protect and provide for Katie in every way. Bring wisdom, strength, revelation, rest, health, finances, people, and relational support to her at this time. Thank you that your callings are irrevocable and you are the author and finisher of our faith. We trust in you for this ministry.
Thank you Katie for your obedience to God's call on your life. How pleased God must be to see women awakened to their purposes and moving forward in the destiny He has for them!
Hi Katie My grandson is over today and showed me how simple this is. I so appreciate your books - you followed your dreams and God gave you the desires of your heart. I am really looking forward to all that God has in store for me in the year ahead. May God continue to bless you with peace and joy through your busy summer.Blessings Carelin Penner
Hello! God has brough me to this site for many reasons! I was reading an article from Better Life in Purpose Driven Life. And I read an article, "Perfect Peace" by Michael Reynolds and at the end of his article was some background information on him. This is where I first learned about Life Purpose Coaching. I am part of a women's ministry, which I didn't even know this is where God wants me. And after prayer and meditation, I see that God is moving me to a new venture, one that is clearly guided and directed by Him. So, here I am on your blog and so excited about what God is doing with your ministry, as this is what our women's ministry is about. I will talk with my Pastor's wife, who started the women's ministry, about this more and see what she thinks. I am going to also pray and see if this is where God would like me to begin as He leads me on a completely different path. Thank you for this and I would love to get more information about how to become a Life Purpose Coach. Best wishes to you and may God continue to increase your ministry to touch the lives of His virtuous women!
Looking forward to the new book, but haven't used the other 3 enough yet!
Pray for me as I develop a new ministry plan over the next month to create Purpose tracks. I need to know whether I'll do it within the new church, outside the church or both. I've spoken to a pastor and he's on board so far.
A friend who took my last course is urging me to use the boardroom at her office for a communtity book group at the same time the church is urging us to take Christ to the community. The boardroom just happens to be in the same community as the building the church rents.
Thank you to each of you for sharing your prayer requests and for praying for me too! This was always a delight for me to review. Your words were an inspiration to me and gave me energy. God bless! Katieb
Thanks for your just-received email of acceptance to PTP. I look forward to all God will teach me through this experience. God led me to this ministry, so I know it will be exciting and challenging days ahead. Thank you for your faithful and obedient service. May you know God's favor as you plan and strategize for the future.
Thank you for your e-mails. I look forward to starting my training and learning how to help others through this ministry. It's nice to know that I can use my talents to further God's purposes in each of us! Thank you for your encouragement. God Bless.
Hey Katie, I'm the new kid on the block and I am fired up!! God has been preparing me for this opportunity for the past several years. It truly is amazing that He put you and Sharon Newhardt in my path at this point and time in my journey of faith.
Two years ago I ordered all your books and read them with interest having no idea that God would lead you to develop this life coaching certification program. I had read Tom Paterson's "Living the Life You Were Meant to Live" about the same time and researched several places that offered his 2 day LifePlan experience. At the time, I was too cheap to invest in it (and I was the world's biggest procrastinator) but all that is changing with my new life coach- Sharon Newhardt. With her great encouragement to work on my organizational skills I ordered "The Power of Focus" which I can already see is another tool the Lord is using to get me on the fast track to where He desires for me to be.
I'm signing up for the November "Girls Getaway Cruise" in November and can't wait to meet you in person.
God is clarifying several things in my life though my coaching and I can't wait to see what's next. Eph. 3:20-21 "Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever!
I'll be praying for you as I can only imagine your busy schedule. Blessings, Gayle Kraker
I am so excited to be a part of the PTP ministry. I am excited about what God is doing both through the ministry and in my own life. I am so passionate about discipling women and helping them discover who they were created to be. The ministry is such a wonderful place of support and encouragement. I can't wait for all the different experiences ahead of me! I praise God for working through you to develop such a wonderful ministry. I am so excited about your new book and can't wait to read it! God Bless! Judy
Katie, I just read your book, Pathway to Purpose for Women. I would love to take a seminar. How can I get connected? I live in Carlsbad, Southern California
