3 Steps to Reset Your Faith-Based Business in 2025 [EP 173]

Midyear Business Reset for Christian Women Entrepreneurs: You're Not Behind, You're Right on Time
Originally published from Kingdom Revolution Podcast Episode - June 3, 2025
Can I be totally transparent with you? The month of May flew by for me, and if you've been feeling anything like I have—a little bit heavy, wondering if you're making real progress in your business—this message is for you.
As Christian women entrepreneurs, we often find ourselves carrying burdens that were never meant to be ours. What once felt exciting and full of purpose in our business can start to feel like pressure, especially when we're not seeing the results we hoped for by now.
But here's what I want you to know: You're not behind. You are not disqualified. You're right on time for a midyear reset and breakthrough.
The Reality of Building a Kingdom Business
While supporting my amazing clients inside the Kingdom Business Revolution and Business by God's Design Academy this month, I've been reminded of something powerful: taking messy, faith-filled action forward is exactly how clarity comes.
In the beginning, we don't know what we're doing. We just know there was a Holy Spirit pivot—that moment where we knew we were called to the online business space, that God was calling us to more. We had this dream, this desire inside to bring forth our area of expertise and create a business that generates both income and impact.
If you're a woman called to online business, I wholeheartedly believe that God is calling you to rise up and step onto the business battlefield. You're not only called to create impact with those you serve—your online business IS the battlefield where you get to show up and change broken and corrupt systems, wreak havoc on the darkness of this world, shift paradigms, and break strongholds.
Why Spring is Your New Beginning
Here's something that might shift your perspective entirely: our worldly calendar isn't our Heavenly Father's calendar. While the world tells us New Year's resolutions should have been accomplished by now, God's calendar works differently.
New Year's in the biblical calendar is actually springtime—when the world starts to wake up from its hibernation over winter. We have things backward when we follow the world's way. God's way is so much easier. His burden is light, and His yoke is easy.
Right now, we're just moving into springtime on the Lord's calendar. It's the beginning of a new year. The leaves are coming back on the trees, the grass is becoming green, and everything is coming alive again.
This is the beginning of a new season in your business. If those thoughts of "I thought I'd be so much further along by now" have crept into your mind, I want to lovingly remind you:
You're not behind
You are not disqualified
You may have disqualified yourself, but the Lord has qualified you
You are anointed for the business battlefield
You're not too late
Your journey is your journey
Three Simple Ways to Refocus and Realign with God's Design
1. Revisit Your God-Given Vision
God planted those seeds for your business in your heart. What did He speak to you before the marketing plans, before the gurus said to do this and that, before you kept changing strategies, before the overwhelm, before the comparison crept in?
What was that vision God put on your heart?
Go back to that place, write it down, and speak it out loud. As Habakkuk 2:2 says, "Write the vision and make it plain, so those that hear it can run after it."
Let the Holy Spirit breathe fresh wind and fresh encouragement into what may feel dry, burdened, or dusty. God didn't change His mind. He called you. He has a purpose for your online business.
Sometimes the clarity we crave isn't a new idea—it's remembering the vision and dream He already gave us.
2. Clarify Your Assignment for This Season
As moms and women, we go through different seasons, and you're not called to carry everything in every season. But you ARE called to do something, and that something may shift from season to season.
Maybe you've been trying to do too much—offering too many things, speaking to too many people, juggling too many platforms, trying to be everywhere on social media, or cranking out freebie after freebie hoping to gain traction.
Social media is not a business growth plan. That's a fast track to burnout and confusion.
A business that is by God's design is not a business of chaos—it's clarity. And clarity starts with what I call the Power of One framework:
One problem you're anointed to solve
One person you're uniquely called to serve
One offer that truly transforms
One clear path for growth and impact
One promise rooted in kingdom purpose
When you align with His focus, not the world's pressure, your business becomes lighter, simpler, and far more fruitful.
Clarity produces confidence, and confidence fuels the momentum you need. But remember—clarity comes from taking action, not from thinking about taking action.
Ask God: "What is my assignment right now in this season? What is that one problem You've equipped me to solve? Who are You calling me to serve?"
3. Renew Your Rhythms
Sometimes it's not the vision that's off—it's the pace you're running at. Maybe you've been running on fumes, feeling disconnected, pushing without pausing, neglecting your self-care, and not spending time with your Heavenly Board of Directors.
Kingdom businesses that are profitable, successful, and sustainable aren't built through hustle culture. They're built through spending time with the Holy Spirit and your Heavenly Board of Directors.
What if your next level of growth doesn't come from more output or doing more? What if it comes from renewed rhythms?
Rhythms of rest
Rhythms of prayer
Rhythms of planning
Rhythms of being present with your Heavenly Father
Let Him guide you back to a place where your business feels light again—not because the work is easy (I know growing a business is hard), but because His yoke is easy when it's shared and we're in alignment.
Strategy is important, but what's more important is strategy with surrender and being in alignment with your kingdom calling. That's where sustainable, spirit-led growth lives for your business by God's design.
The Power of Kingdom Collaboration
Let me share something exciting that happened during my focus on lead generation this month. While putting together the Mic Drop and Juice Boxes private audio podcast summit, my email list grew by 150 amazing women in just one week—and that was only week one of promotion!
This happened through kingdom collaboration strategies—building relationships and leveraging partnerships to add value to other people's audiences. This is how you can significantly grow your email list without being a slave to social media.
Kingdom relationships and collaboration strategies are where sustainable growth happens. It's about serving others first and building genuine connections in the faith-based business community.
Your Next Steps Forward
If you're on the edge of your dream, afraid to say yes, if you've drifted from God's initial calling on your life or business, or if you're second-guessing that stir of the Holy Spirit inside you and waiting to say yes until you feel ready—here's the truth:
You're never going to feel ready. God isn't asking for perfection. He's simply asking for you to move.
For each of you, that next step looks different:
For some, it's time to grab that dream off the shelf that scares you and step into your calling
For others, you need to uplevel yourself by hiring a coach or mentor
Some need to spend time with your Heavenly Board of Directors to determine what that next step is
But whatever it is, clarity doesn't come from striving harder or checking off boxes and trying to do all the things. It comes from surrendering, going deep, spending time with your Heavenly Board of Directors, and taking faith-filled steps of obedience forward.
You Are Here for a Reason
You are here to take back territory that the enemy has stolen. If your business has been starting to feel like a struggle, and those priorities in your life are starting to feel like a burden, it's time to lay everything back at Jesus's feet and realign with God's design for your business.
Remember: You are anointed for the business battlefield. You're called to create kingdom wealth so you can give more, bless more, create that nonprofit, or change those broken and corrupt systems you want to change on this side of heaven.
Your online business is your opportunity to create that eternal impact and ripple effect the Lord wants you to create on this side of heaven.
Moving Forward in Faith
As we move into this biblical springtime, this new season, I want you to hold onto this truth: Your journey is your journey, and you're right on time.
We don't have a fancy plan. We don't have everything mapped out. But you get to be obedient and trust the Lord for your next steps. And sometimes that means hiring someone who can help you go faster—someone who's in alignment with your vision and values.
The frustration of "I thought I would be so much further by now" is from the enemy. Don't let him stop you or hinder you from stepping into your calling.
It's time for kingdom women warrior entrepreneurs to rise up and say, "No more am I going to let the enemy stop me from stepping into my calling."
The time is now. You are ready. God has qualified you.

Surrendering Finances to the Holy Spirit: A New Path to True Financial Freedom with Heather Day
When it comes to finances, we are bombarded with advice: budget better, invest wisely, work harder. But what if there’s a deeper dimension we’ve been missing all along?
Today on the Kingdom Revolution Podcast, we welcome Heather Day, author of the newly released book Money and Spirit. Heather challenges the traditional narratives around money and offers a refreshing perspective: true financial transformation doesn’t begin with spreadsheets or budgets—it begins with surrender.
Through Money and Spirit, Heather invites us to explore how our spiritual lives are deeply connected to our material resources—and why surrendering our finances to the Holy Spirit is key for lasting change.
Why This Matters for Christian Women in Business
As Christian women called to create kingdom wealth, money is a tool God uses through us—to bless more, give more, and bring change to broken and corrupt systems. Yet many of us unknowingly operate from places of fear, anxiety, or misplaced priorities when it comes to finances.
Heather’s message is clear: God cares about the areas of our lives that keep us in bondage—including money. And He longs to set us free.
Meet Heather Day
Heather is a wife, a mom of two, a full-time working professional, and a passionate ministry leader. As a pastor’s kid, Heather grew up with the assurance of God’s love, but her journey has shown her that surrender is a lifelong process—even in the realm of finances.
Heather shared how the inspiration for Money and Spirit came through a simple but powerful prayer during a meeting at the Barnabas Foundation. A moment of spiritual "stuckness" birthed a movement—what started as a Bible study concept eventually evolved into a book that would encourage countless others.
Money Struggles: A Spiritual Issue?
In Christian circles, we often talk about surrendering our relationships, our futures, and our dreams to God. But money? That's often treated as off-limits.Heather points out that when we ignore the spiritual root behind our money struggles, we end up only treating symptoms like overspending, hoarding, fear, or anxiety—without ever addressing the deeper spiritual misalignments.
If our financial behaviors reflect fear, mistrust, or misplaced identity, it’s a clear signal: there’s a heart issue that God wants to heal.
Recognizing the Symptoms and Getting to the Root
If you're feeling that ding-ding-ding of recognition right now, you're not alone. So where do you start?Heather recommends two key first steps:
Prayer of Surrender: Invite God into your finances. Acknowledge that you can’t do it alone and ask Him to lead.
Prayer of Examination: Ask God to search your heart and reveal where fear, pride, anxiety, or misplaced trust might be guiding your financial decisions.
From there, allow God’s Spirit to guide you into freedom—whether that's addressing overspending, fear of not having enough, or unhealthy attachments to wealth.
Heather’s Personal Journey: Lessons from the Trenches
Heather openly shares that even as she wrote Money and Spirit, God was still working on her heart. She described a personal moment when a broken fridge almost spiraled into an impulsive decision to finance an entire new kitchen. It was a sobering reminder that even when we think we've "arrived," surrender is ongoing.
True freedom comes not from achieving perfection, but from constantly inviting God into the everyday decisions.
For the Overwhelmed and Ashamed: A Message of Hope
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or ashamed of your current financial situation, hear this: You are not alone.Heather reminds us that shame is one of the enemy’s biggest tools. The truth is that bringing our struggles into the light—through prayer, through honest conversations with a spouse, mentor, or trusted guide—is where healing begins.
It starts with surrender, continues with obedience, and flourishes in community. God is not asking for your perfection—He’s asking for your heart.

Reviving Your Failed Launch: Strategies for Christian Women in Online Business [Ep. 171]

From Crickets to Conversions: Reviving Your Failed Beta Launch | Christian Business Strategy for Online Entrepreneurs
Episode Description
Have you ever had a launch flop? You poured your heart, soul, prayers, and countless hours into creating something you believe God called you to share, only to hear crickets when you launched? In this powerful episode, Kristin shares three proven strategies to revive your beta founding member program without scrapping everything and starting over. Learn how to transform launch disappointment into valuable feedback for your next breakthrough.
In This Episode You'll Learn:
Why a failed beta launch is feedback, not failure
How to revisit and refine your messaging to clearly communicate your offer's value
The importance of building a nurture runway that warms your audience up before launching
Practical steps to relaunch with fresh energy and conviction
Why small, strategic tweaks are better than major overhauls
Key Takeaways:
Revisit Your Messaging: Ensure your offer solves a clear problem using language your ideal client actually understands. Focus on their pain points and desired transformation rather than your processes.
Build a Nurture Runway: Create intentional content that helps your audience recognize their real problem, trust your voice, and desire what your offer delivers before you make your pitch.
Relaunch Strategically: Don't scrap everything - make targeted improvements based on feedback, simplify if needed, and show up with renewed clarity and conviction.
Quotable Moments:
"A flopped beta launch isn't failure. It's feedback."
"Stop describing the process and start reflecting the pain and desire."
"Just because you are ready to launch doesn't mean your audience is ready to buy."
"Your beta launch flopping isn't a red light, it's just a yield sign."

Doubled Her List, Tripled Her Faith Wendy Wallace’s Summit Success Story [Ep 170]

Doubled Her List, Tripled Her Faith Wendy Wallace’s Summit Success Story [Ep 170]
When Wendy Wallace first entered the Summits with Impact program, she was passionate about serving Christian women through her mentorship and digital content. However, she faced a common struggle: growing her email list with the right audience and creating consistent income in her online business.
In this case study, Wendy shares her journey, the transformation she experienced through hosting her first virtual summit, and why she now considers summits an essential part of her ongoing marketing strategy.
You can join Wendy's next Radiant Resilience Summit Here
This event is for you if you want to...
Stop Winging Your Time with God & Live a Life That Honors Him!
Deepen your relationship with the Lord, gain confidence in Him, and grow your faith so that it doesn't waiver when times get hard.
Build a virtuous life that honors Him and brings peace and joy to your family—even in life’s challenges!
Meet Wendy Wallace
Wendy is a Christian mentor and digital content creator who helps women rediscover God’s joy and peace in the midst of life’s trials. Through her work, she empowers women to deepen their faith and biblical knowledge so they can move forward with joy, no matter their circumstances.
Her journey to this mission is deeply personal. In 2011, Wendy contracted a flesh-eating bacteria that put her in a coma for three weeks and led to the amputation of both her hands and feet. She had three teenagers at the time and found herself grappling with a completely transformed life.
"I found my value and purpose in being a mom," Wendy shares. "But when you lose your hands, it changes how you live, and it messed with my head for a long time. Through God's prompting, I realized He wanted me to reach other women who were stuck—who had lost their joy and peace in their own trials."
Today, Wendy uses her experience to mentor others through the challenges of life, reminding them that joy and peace—fruits of the Spirit—are always available through a relationship with Christ.
The Struggles Before Hosting a Virtual Summit
Despite her passion and clear calling, Wendy struggled to grow her business.
"I kept hearing that people needed what I offered, but I couldn’t find them," she explains. "My email list wasn’t growing with the right people. I had subscribers, but they weren't interested in what I was teaching."
Wendy needed a solution that would help her attract an audience genuinely aligned with her message—and ultimately turn her passion into a thriving business.
She had been part of Kristin's Online Business by God’s Design program, and when Kristin introduced Summits with Impact, Wendy felt a spark of hope.
Still, doubts lingered. "As an amputee, everything I do takes more effort—whether it's typing with styluses or using voice-to-text. Hosting a summit felt overwhelming. I knew I could do it, but I wasn’t sure how well."
Enter the Summits with Impact Program
Once inside the program, Wendy realized she had found what she had been missing.
"Hands down, it was the best program I’ve ever taken," Wendy says. "I’ve been blogging since 2018, and I’ve spent so much time and money learning how to serve online. But Summits with Impact was different. Kristen left nothing to the imagination. She gave us a step-by-step system that worked."
Through the program, Wendy was able to:
Clarify her messaging to attract her ideal audience
 
Create a well-organized, seamless event that speakers and attendees raved about
 
Grow her email list by 104%
 
Bring in $4,000 in revenue before the summit even launched
 
"Everything was organized, clear, and simple to follow. I got feedback from attendees and speakers saying how amazing and professional it all was—and that they wanted to know when the next summit would be!"
The Tangible Results
Before hosting her summit, Wendy’s email list hovered around 800 subscribers, despite years of effort.
After implementing the strategies in Summits with Impact, Wendy grew her list by over 100%—with high-quality leads who were truly aligned with her mission.
"I had been stuck for five years. And in just a few months, I doubled my list—and it's continued to grow since then."
Additionally, by offering a VIP All-Access Pass before the event even went live, Wendy generated $4,000 in revenue.
"For the first time, I wasn't just spending money on my business—I was actually generating income. And now, I have a repeatable process I can use for years to come."
The Ripple Effect
Perhaps most powerfully, hosting her summit didn’t just grow Wendy’s list or income—it created a ripple effect.
"Other women were inspired to host their own events. Speakers wanted to collaborate more. Attendees were impacted eternally by the content shared. That’s the kind of Kingdom impact I want my business to have."
Wendy is now planning her next summit and has set the goal to create all the income she needs for the year—with just one event.
Wendy's Advice to Others Considering Summits with Impact
If you’re considering joining Summits with Impact or wondering if a virtual summit could work for your business, Wendy has this advice:
"I don’t think there’s any reason to hesitate. You get far more than you expect. Not only will it grow your audience and provide a cash injection, but it will give you a repeatable system

The #1 Way I Grew My Email List without a Lead Magnet or Social Media [Ep. 169]

How I Grew My Email List Without Freebies or Social Media
Have you been spinning your wheels trying to grow your email list with little results? Are you tired of being told you need to create yet another freebie or dance and point on social media?
I want to share how I transformed my business by tripling (and even quadrupling) my email list without relying on social media, paid ads, or the standard lead magnet freebies that everyone claims are essential.
My List Growth Journey
Back in 2022, I had only about 150 subscribers after nearly two and a half years of trying to build my list. The problem? I was making critical mistakes:
I created lead magnets that didn't lead anywhere
I had no customer journey mapped out
I lacked clarity on my offer and ideal client
My business wasn't aligned with God's design yet
Then I discovered a strategy that changed everything. In just weeks, I tripled my email list. More recently, I grew my list by 162 amazing women in just 22 days – all while I was sick and unable to actively work on my business!
The Strategy: Leveraging Collaboration as Your Top-of-Funnel Lead Magnet
The key to my success has been using collaborations as my primary lead generation strategy. Instead of relying on traditional freebies, I focus on:
Value Visibility: Strategically showing up where my ideal audience already gathers by participating in collaborations, guest teaching, and providing genuine value
Voice Visibility: Building relationships and credibility by lending my unique voice to conversations through podcast guesting, collaborative projects, and partnership events
This framework focuses on quality over quantity, resulting in more engaged subscribers right from day one.
Recent Results
Those 162 new subscribers I mentioned? They came from just two bundle events I participated in. And my current open rates hover between 30-50% (well above industry standards), with click-through rates also exceeding averages.
This tells me I'm not just growing my list – I'm growing it with the right people who genuinely engage with my content.
Why I Don't Rely on Social Media
Here's where I might be a bit controversial: I intentionally shifted away from social media as my primary list-building strategy. Why?
Social media algorithms control your reach
Platform tactics and strategies constantly change
Success becomes tied to something outside your control
Instead, I focused on strategic partnerships that give me direct access to my audience without algorithm interference. This doesn't mean I abandoned social media completely (though I did lose all my accounts to hacking in January 2025 right before a huge launch). I still maintain a presence, but it's supplementary rather than foundational.
The freedom this shift has given me is incredible! I'm no longer stressed about posting daily or keeping up with the latest trends. I've reclaimed hours each week to better serve my audience and clients.
My Email Growth Drivers
Here's what actually drives my list growth:
Strategic collaborations: Carefully selected bundle events where my offer is positioned alongside complementary experts serving the same audience
Speaking at virtual summits: Events with hosts committed to promotion and audiences that match mine
Hosting my own collaboration events: This gives the biggest return on time invested as you control the positioning and collect all email addresses
The power of collaboration strategies is that they bring in pre-qualified subscribers – people who have actively said "yes" to your content rather than random clicks on ads or freebies.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
As you rethink your email growth strategy, watch out for these common pitfalls:
Chasing vanity metrics: Focusing on likes, shares, or subscriber count over engagement and quality
Inconsistency: Emailing sporadically instead of maintaining regular contact (at least weekly)
Treating your list like an ATM: Only showing up when you have something to sell
Never making offers: Not giving subscribers opportunities to say yes to your products or services
Overwhelming new subscribers: Giving too much content with confused messaging that doesn't lead to a clear next step
Your Action Steps
Ready to implement this strategy yourself? Here's where to start:
Identify 2-3 potential collaboration opportunities for this quarter (remember: what you do today affects your business 60-90 days out)
Implement the visibility framework by asking where you can provide genuine value and lend your voice to existing conversations
Commit to nurturing your current list consistently with a simple email schedule
Audit your current list-building strategies and honestly evaluate what's working and what isn't
Remember, sustainable business growth comes from focusing on the right strategies, not all the strategies. By making strategic collaborations your top-of-funnel lead magnet, you can build a thriving email list of engaged people who genuinely want to hear from you.

168 // AI vs. Human Connection: Why Faith-Fueled Copywriting Wins Every Time with Krista Tressa

 The Power of Faith and Authenticity in Copywriting with Krista Tressa
In the world of business, especially for Christian entrepreneurs, it can be easy to get caught up in the hustle and overlook one of the most important aspects of success: authenticity. How do you build a business that not only thrives but also reflects the values of your faith? Today’s episode of the Kingdom Revolution Podcast is essential for those of you who are seeking to deepen your connection with your audience and create a business that stands out for the right reasons.
We’re diving into the powerful intersection of faith and copywriting with Krista Tressa, a Christ-centered CEO and Chief Copywriting Officer at Caring Messenger Copywriting. Krista’s mission is to help small businesses connect authentically with their audiences through emotionally intelligent, purpose-driven messaging that not only elevates profits but also advances the Kingdom of God. If you’ve ever wondered how to blend your faith with your business in a meaningful way, this episode is packed with wisdom and insight that you don’t want to miss.
From Pharmacist to Entrepreneur: A God-Driven Journey
Krista’s story is one of divine orchestration. Originally trained as a pharmacist and later a high school tech ed teacher, Krista’s career path took an unexpected turn into copywriting. As she reflects, it’s clear that this shift was guided by God. “It’s a God thing,” Krista says.
“Writing’s always been a passion of mine. I didn’t realize that I could help my family financially with it.” Over time, God used her past experiences to fuel her new career, leading her to empower kingdom builders and Christian entrepreneurs through her copywriting services.
Her journey into entrepreneurship, which she now sees as part of her ministry, is a testimony to God’s timing. Krista helps businesses communicate their heart and values through impactful messaging, believing that copywriting is not just a skill—it’s a ministry. “It’s really a God thing,” she emphasizes, acknowledging the role of faith in everything she does.
Copywriting: More Than Just Words
Krista explains copywriting as the art of using emotionally intelligent messaging to connect with an audience and inspire action. Whether selling a product or service, the goal is to emotionally engage potential customers so they’ll take the desired action, such as making a purchase or signing up for a service.
But copywriting is much more than just writing words; it involves storytelling, brand voice, and tapping into human emotions. Krista describes her approach as one driven by discernment and wisdom from the Holy Spirit. She has a unique ability to read between the lines and connect with people on a deeper level. This skill, she says, has helped her build a thriving business and make a positive impact on her clients.
She also shares a special moment when her children, especially her teenagers, ask her for help editing papers. “It’s heartwarming,” she says, “because I get to nurture that gift of writing while encouraging them in their own journey.”
Understanding Your Brand Voice: The Importance of a Tone Guide
One of the key aspects of Krista’s work is helping clients understand their brand voice and tone. For many entrepreneurs, especially in the early stages of their business, it can be challenging to express their unique message in a way that resonates with their ideal audience. This is where Krista’s expertise shines.
She explains, “Not everyone is gifted with tapping into the emotional side of messaging or knows how to share their story effectively. That’s where I come in.” Whether a client is unsure about their brand tone or needs help articulating their message, Krista works closely with them to refine their voice and create a tone guide. This guide serves as a foundation for all marketing materials and ensures consistency as the business grows.
Krista also highlights the value of hiring a professional copywriter early in the process. “It’s so important to have someone who can draw that authentic message out of you,” she says. By enlisting an expert, entrepreneurs can build a stronger connection with their audience and stand out in the crowded online space.
The Role of AI in Copywriting: A Tool, Not a Replacement
In the age of artificial intelligence, many business owners turn to AI for content creation. But Krista warns against relying solely on AI for copywriting. While AI can be a useful tool for streamlining processes or analyzing data, it lacks the human touch that is essential for emotional engagement.
“AI is a tool, but it’s not meant to replace the human connection,” Krista explains. “Your clients will eventually figure out if you’re hiding behind AI. It’s artificial—it’s not real.”
What AI can’t replicate is the intuition, discernment, and Holy Spirit guidance that a Christ-centered copywriter brings to the table. Krista emphasizes that as kingdom entrepreneurs, it’s essential to infuse your faith into everything you do, including your messaging. When you do this, your audience will feel it. “It’s powerful when you bring Holy Spirit discernment into your copywriting,” she says.
Leading with Faith in Business
Krista’s business is not just about writing—it’s about ministry. She provides her clients with tools to communicate their message while staying true to their Christian values. Her freebie guide, which offers 20 action steps for growing spiritually and deepening your faith walk with Jesus, is just one example of how she combines business with ministry.
“It’s about more than just making a profit,” Krista shares. “I want my business to reflect the values of the kingdom and help others grow in their faith, too. If you use the steps I’ve shared in my free guide, I guarantee you’ll experience transformation.”
The Bottom Line: Authenticity is Key
As a copywriter, Krista’s passion lies in helping businesses connect authentically with their audience. Whether through carefully crafted messaging, brand tone guides, or writing services, she ensures that each client’s message is aligned with their mission and values. In an online world dominated by noise, authenticity and emotional intelligence are the key to standing out and building meaningful connections.
For those looking to grow their businesses while staying true to their Christian faith, Krista is a valuable resource. Her services are a testament to the power of integrating faith with entrepreneurship and using your gifts to serve others.
As I always tell you: “We were created for such a time as this. We are called to use our businesses to make a kingdom impact.”

167 // The #1 Lead Magnet Mistake Christian Women in Online Business Make

The #1 Lead Magnet Mistake Christian Women in Online Business Make
Is your free lead magnet secretly sabotaging your sales? Discover why most Christian Women Entrepreneurs are making a critical mistake with their email list strategy.
The Lead Magnet Mistake That's Costing You Sales
You've done everything "right." You created that free PDF guide, checklist, or resource. You've promoted it on social media. You've participated in bundles and summits. Your email list has grown impressively, and your open rates look decent. People even compliment your content.
But when you finally launch your offer... crickets.
If this sounds familiar, you're experiencing what I call the invisible gap – a critical mistake that many Christian women entrepreneurs make when building their email list.
The Core Problem: Your Freebie Doesn't Create Desire for Your Offer
The fundamental issue isn't that you have a lead magnet or that you're building an email list. The problem is that your freebie doesn't strategically align with your paid offer, creating a disconnect in your customer journey.
Most entrepreneurs experience marketing funnels from left to right:
See content or ad
Opt in for freebie
Join email list
Attend webinar/challenge
Consider paid offer
So naturally, they create their funnel in that same order. They start by making a lead magnet, then figure out what to sell later.
This approach creates a fatal flaw: building a bridge that leads nowhere.
The Counterintuitive Approach: Start with the End in Mind
Successful online marketers take a completely different approach. They work backwards, not forwards:
Define your paid offer first - Get absolute clarity on what transformation you provide
Map your signature framework - Outline exactly how you help your ideal clients
Extract a strategic piece - Create a lead magnet that naturally sets up desire for your offer
When you start with your offer first, your entire funnel becomes strategically aligned. Your lead magnet doesn't just build your list – it begins the sales process by attracting the right people and creating demand for your solution.
The Two-Question Framework for Converting Lead Magnets
To create a lead magnet that effectively bridges to your paid offer, ask these two critical questions:
What specific, tangible outcome does your offer provide? (Focus on external, visible results)
Instead of "Improve your YouTube marketing"
Try "Get your first YouTube video ranked at the top of YouTube search"
What does that give them? (Ask repeatedly to uncover deeper emotional benefits)
More exposure
More leads and sales
More money
More freedom and time with family
These questions help you define both the external and internal outcomes of your offer, allowing you to create a lead magnet that speaks directly to these desires.
Common Lead Magnet Mistakes to Avoid
1. Duct-Taping Your Business Together
Creating a lead magnet without knowing what you're selling next leaves you constantly starting and stopping, trying to figure out the next step.
2. Choosing Unrelated Lead Magnet Topics
If your lead magnet doesn't connect logically to your offer, you'll attract the wrong subscribers. Example: A YouTube course with a lead magnet about building an email list.
3. Working in the Wrong Direction
Experiencing funnels from left to right, then creating yours the same way, leads to misalignment and poor results.
The Consequences of Getting This Wrong
When your lead magnet doesn't align with your offer, you'll experience:
Large email list but few buyers
Wasted effort on content that doesn't generate sales
Endless content creation trying to warm up the wrong audience
Constant frustration and underwhelming launches
The Solution: Map Your Customer Journey Backwards
Smart Kingdom entrepreneurs work backwards:
Start with YOU by God's design (extract your unique blueprint)
Define your offer with absolute clarity
Map your customer journey toward that paid offer
Create a lead magnet that bridges the gap
Your lead magnet should be the first step of your sales funnel, not a separate list-building activity. Think of it as the perfect first step in your client's transformation journey.
Ready to Fix Your Lead Magnet Strategy?
If you're ready to stop duct-taping your business together and create a strategic funnel that actually converts, you need to:
Get clarity on your offer
Define your "B to Y" (the bridge that takes clients from their current situation to their desired outcome)
Create a lead magnet that creates genuine demand for your solution
Remember: If your lead magnet doesn't create desire for your offer and move your ideal client closer to saying yes, it's not serving its purpose.

166. Amplify Your Kingdom Message: The Power of Podcast Guesting with Sabrina Hammonds

Amplify Your Kingdom Message: The Power of Podcast Guesting with Sabrina Hammonds
Are you a Kingdom woman in online business looking to expand your reach and impact? What if the key to amplifying your God-given message lies not in chasing social media algorithms, but in authentic conversations that reach deeply engaged listeners?
In a recent episode of the Kingdom Revolution podcast, I had the privilege of speaking with Sabrina Hammonds, founder of Kingdom Connections Podcast and Media Agency. Sabrina helps transformational leaders amplify their message and connect with their ideal audience through strategic podcast guesting.
How Podcast Guesting Can Transform Your Kingdom Business
Sabrina’s journey into podcast guesting began unexpectedly. With no intention of starting a business and no knowledge of what a podcast was, she found herself offering to help someone share their powerful testimony. “I had no idea what I was offering to do for this woman,” Sabrina recalls. “And she says, ‘Yeah, I’m supposed to be speaking. The Lord’s already told me that. Let’s do it.'”
This led to what Sabrina describes as “building the plane as you go” business model, where she discovered podcast guesting as an effective way to help her clients share their message.
“Never discount yourself or count yourself out from doing what you feel like God is leading you to simply because you don’t know. It’s okay. He knows and that’s enough.”
Getting Started with Podcast Guesting
If you’re interested in trying podcast guesting, Sabrina recommends starting in communities where people are looking for collaboration partners. Here’s a simple approach:
Join communities (like Kristen’s) where podcast hosts gather
Share that you’re passionate about your topic and looking for opportunities to add value
When someone responds with their podcast, listen to 2-3 episodes to understand their message and audience
Reach out authentically: “I listened to your podcast. I listened to this episode. I totally relate and resonate with what you shared. I think I could really add value to your audience because this is what I’m passionate about sharing.”
Remember, podcast hosts are looking for guests who can fill in gaps and solve problems their audience is experiencing.
Quality Over Quantity: The Power of One Connection
Sabrina emphasizes that podcast guesting isn’t about the number of shows you appear on, but the quality of connections you make. She shared how one strategic connection with Nadine Mullings has created multiplication in her business and for her clients.
“God is a God of relationships. Through this one connection, there has been such multiplication in my business and in the business and connections for my clients—I can’t even tell you how much, it’s almost too much to count.”
This approach aligns with Kingdom principles. We’re not doing business the world’s way, focused solely on numbers, but the Lord’s way, where He can multiply the impact of even one appearance.
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Pitching Yourself as a Guest
Sabrina highlighted four common pitfalls to avoid:
Lack of research: Don’t mass-pitch to podcasts without thoroughly understanding their message and audience. “Spirituality doesn’t mean the same thing to everybody,” Sabrina warns.
Self-focused pitching: Focus on how you can add value to the host’s audience rather than listing your own accomplishments.
Giving up after one attempt: Many podcasts receive numerous pitches daily. Follow up if you don’t hear back initially.
Trying to fit in: Understand and confidently communicate the unique value you bring. “We’re not supposed to figure out how we can fit, but really understand our value and share that with the podcast host.”

165. Why Social Media Is Failing Us & 3 Things That Need To Be Working Together In Your Online Business

Why Social Media Is Failing Us and 3 Things That Need To Be Working Together In Your Online Business
 
Are you tired of being a slave to social media for your online business growth? You're not alone. As Christian women in business, we're called to make an impact while building profitable, sustainable enterprises by God's design. But the old lead generation tactics—especially social media—simply aren't working anymore in 2025.
Why Social Media Is Failing Us
Remember that old commercial that said, "This is your brain, this is drugs, this is your brain on drugs"? Think of that as "This is your brain, this is social media, this is your brain on social media."
Social media platforms are purposely designed to be addictive. They release quick hits of dopamine that give us snapshots of happiness, and the more we seek it out, the more dopamine gets released. This addiction leads to doom scrolling for hours when we only meant to check our engagement or make a post.
As business owners, this addiction can leave us:
Burnt out
Questioning our calling
Wondering, "Lord, did I even hear you right?"
I've been there. I was spending too much time being a slave to social media, trying to show up in Facebook groups and add value, but it wasn't working. That's when I realized that social media is not a business growth plan.
The Three-Point Customer Lifecycle
There are three essential components that need to be working in your online business to make it successful, profitable, and sustainable:
1. Lead Generation
This is the entry point where new people discover you. The outdated lead generation strategies are not working in 2025 and beyond, specifically social media. We need smarter approaches to bringing quality leads into our world.
In 2022, I hosted my first virtual event that led to 656 new amazing women on my email list. This led to a sold-out one-on-one coaching program for the rest of that year and catapulted me into a membership and group coaching program.
2. Nurture Phase
Building relationships with your audience is just as important as lead generation. Your nurture strategy should be unique to you and your business—we're not building cookie-cutter businesses here. We're following God's blueprint for our specific calling.
This isn't just about nurturing through your email list. It's about implementing strategies that get you in front of your people to increase and strengthen that know, like, and trust factor.
We're currently in a trust recession. Too many people have been burned by coaches and mentors who over-promise and under-deliver. Many potential clients tell me they've invested so much in coaches or programs and are still trying to pay it off because they didn't get the promised results.
Often, these coaches are teaching outdated strategies:
Adding value in countless Facebook groups until you're blue in the face
Sending "hey girl" messages
Running Facebook ads prematurely (before your messaging is clear)
Implementing slow growth organic strategies when you need momentum
3. Sales Conversion
This is where you convert those relationships into paying clients. While you can show up and add value, the real transformation happens at the time of transaction. Solving 100% of your clients' problems happens on the other side of that paid wall.
Moving Forward Without Social Media
All three of these components need to work together like a well-oiled machine in your online business:
Lead generation brings in new leads
Nurturing establishes deep relationships with them
Sales conversion leads them to your paid offer where transformation happens
Now is your "for such a time as this" moment. God is calling bold kingdom women into the online business space to have profitable businesses that not only help the people you're called to serve but also create kingdom wealth so you can give more, bless more, and change broken systems.

164 // Becoming Wealth Blessed With Author Elizabeth Brickman

Becoming Wealth Blessed With Author Elizabeth Brickman
In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Revolution Podcast, host Kristin Dronchi welcomes Elizabeth Brickman, author of "Wealth Blessed: Why Good People Lose Everything and Why You Don't Have To." Elizabeth shares her remarkable journey and insights on developing a healthy, biblical relationship with money and wealth.
From Wealth to Poverty and Back Again
Elizabeth Brickman's journey with money began in childhood abundance. Born into a wealthy family, she experienced financial security until age nine when her family lost everything. "First we lost the housekeeper, and then we lost the house. And all the contents," Elizabeth recalls.
This dramatic shift from comfort to struggle planted a seed in Elizabeth—not for wealth itself, but for financial security. She developed a passion "to not ever be so at risk or to lose everything."
What makes Elizabeth's perspective unique is that, unlike many success stories we typically hear, hers begins with wealth, transitions through loss, and returns to abundance with a transformed relationship to money. Her experience provides a rare and valuable lens through which to view our own financial journeys.
Money: Neither to Love Nor to Hate
One of the most powerful insights Elizabeth shares is her balanced view of wealth. She challenges the notion that holiness requires financial struggle: "We're not allowed to love money, but we don't need to prove our holiness by hating money."
Elizabeth explains that rejecting opportunities to use our God-given gifts (Ephesians 2:10) prevents us from stewarding what God has ordained for us. She poses an important question: "If Christians all decide it sounds holier to be poor, eventually all the wealth will go into the hands of unbelievers. Will those unbelievers support our churches, our ministries? They will not."
Instead, Elizabeth advocates for a middle path: "We're not going to love money. We're not going to hate money. We're going to use money as the tool, God's tool to live our fullest life in Him and to help prosper the church, ministries, kingdom causes."
Preparing for Wealth Before It Comes
Perhaps the most counter-cultural concept Elizabeth introduces is the importance of preparing ourselves for wealth before it arrives. She uses a powerful analogy: "You would never give a lobster to a baby, not because the lobster is bad, but the baby couldn't handle it."
Similarly, Elizabeth suggests that God, as our loving Father, may withhold financial abundance until we're prepared to handle it wisely. When wealth comes to the unprepared—whether through business success, inheritance, or other means—it can become destructive:
"The money intended to answer our prayer becomes the tempter of our sin."
"The money intended to strengthen our relationships becomes the issue that spoils those relationships."
"The money intended to heal our past can end up becoming a billboard that advertises our shame."
Elizabeth emphasizes that being "wealth blessed" isn't about net worth—it's about "net trust" and preparation. It involves equipping ourselves spiritually and emotionally to handle abundance before it arrives.
God's Financial Therapy: Healing Your Money Wounds
At the heart of Elizabeth's message is the concept of "God's financial therapy"—a process of identifying and healing the wounds that shape our unhealthy financial behaviors.
"Most of us, if not all of us, carry wounds from our life," Elizabeth explains. These wounds might come from childhood experiences, a teacher's comment, or even innocent parental actions misunderstood by a child.
The danger comes when these unresolved wounds drive our financial decisions: "Instead of money expressing our godly values, which we do have, the money ends up expressing the wounds." Elizabeth has identified nine common "pain points" where people misuse money to punish, prove, or please others in unhealthy ways.
The solution? "We need to take our wounds, examine our own hearts, bring those to the altar and ask God for His financial therapy."
Elizabeth shares that God's financial therapy works in three dimensions:
Healing your past (childhood wounds)
Healing your present (current financial struggles)
Healing your future (preparing for prosperity)
Common Money Wounds and Their Solutions
Elizabeth highlights several common financial wounds that can sabotage our relationship with money:
1. The Wound of a Poor Childhood
Risk: Merging past, present, and future into one limiting financial identity ("It will never work for me") Solution: "Lord, I know my soul is my most important asset. I am rich in Christ. I have come far and I am going far."
2. The Wound of Past Mistakes
Risk: Becoming judge and jury of ourselves, wearing past mistakes like a permanent badge Solution: Seeking forgiveness from God rather than carrying unending guilt
3. The Wound of Shame
Risk: Making financial decisions based on "bad intel" filtered through shame Solution: Replacing shame with God's truth: "If I am loved by God, who can unsettle me by not loving me?"
4. The Wound of Sadness
Risk: Turning to spending ("retail therapy") to relieve emotional pain Solution: Awareness of the pattern and addressing the root cause rather than seeking temporary comfort
The Mother Lode of Happiness: Generosity
Elizabeth's ultimate discovery through her journey was finding "the mother lode of happiness, which comes through generosity." Her desire to share these principles through her book stems from wanting to extend the impact of generosity beyond her own lifetime.
She shares a beautiful vision: "Imagine if one day the Lord says to me, 'You know what? Tens of millions of dollars were sent to kingdom causes because you empowered readers to thrive financially in me.'"
Your Financial Journey Continues
Elizabeth's message to Kingdom entrepreneurs resonates with hope: "Where you are today is not where you will be later."
She encourages believers to find wisdom about money not from secular sources but from God's Word: "You don't have to know about money. You only have to know about what God says about money."
