I’ve recently started sharing some Tuesday Thoughts on Abounding Faith’s social media. From time to time, I’ll share some of them here. If you’d like to see them as they’re released, be sure to connect with Abounding Faith on Instagram. Blessings!

Are you prayerfully choosing to collaborate with others or are you stuck competing, comparing or copying them?

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s continue being the original masterpieces God has created each one of us to be while prayerfully continuing to make wise Kingdom-connections with our brothers and sisters in Christ as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” (Proverbs 27:17 NIV)

Don’t shrink back … SHINE 🔥

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember to be salt and light as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. (Hebrews 10:36)

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV)

God is more interested in building your character than building your platform 🔥

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember to remain humble before the Lord as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.” (James 4:10 NIV)

Go Forth – Motivational Monday with Coach Nancy, Abounding Faith Coaching & Consulting

Hey Audacious Dreamers and Doers,

I hope you’re soaking in all the last bits of sights and sounds of summer! (And keeping cool!)

I also hope you’re finding ways to GO FORTH and use your gifts, talents and abilities to continue to SHINE for Christ.

What do you feel God calling you to do in this season?

God knows what’s on the other side of our YES!

If you’re feeling stuck or unsure about how to move forward in this season, I’d like to come alongside you as your Life Coach and help you experience that breakthrough you’ve been praying and preparing for.

I’d be delighted and honored to prayerfully help you gain the clarity, confidence and courage to say yes to God’s call on your life.

I can prayerfully help you:

  • Discover your God-given gifts
  • Develop your unique giftings and skill set
  • Dare to live your God-given dreams

You don’t have to go it alone. Let’s SOAR and GO FORTH together!

May the rest of the year be the best of your year!

Happy Book Lovers Day! (8/9/2022)

Happy Early Book Lovers Day to all my Lovely Readers!

These pictures still make me smile because I still remember taking these pics or posing with my fabulous Readers. These pics were taken at at least seven different events and occasions pre-pandemic.

I LOVE how my diverse readers represent different backgrounds, cultures, races, ages and life stages.

Thank you to every Reader who has picked up copies of Waiting on God Well, Abounding Faith, Crossing Your Jordan River, By Faith and Feisty Faith for you and your loved ones!

It’s so sweet when I’ve gotten to see a Reader surprise their unsuspecting friend standing nearby by buying them a signed copy of my books. It’s also so lovely to hear the stories about who the books are being signed for.

Back when I was a journalist writing for The New York Times and Latina magazine and other publications, I had countless readers but I didn’t have much of an opportunity to interact with them.

What a difference it is to author Christian living books and devotionals and to get to connect with YOU on social media and at past in-person events.

My prayer is that you’re encouraged, inspired and empowered by my books and other work. If so, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Please feel free to leave a comment here or on Instagram.

If you want to help other book lovers discover Abounding Faith’s inspiring and empowering books, please leave a kind Amazon review and rating.

Your reviews are greatly appreciated and make such a difference in the book publishing world. Gracias!

Here’s a glimpse of a recent review. So sweet!

Which book lover can you bless with copies of Abounding Faith’s books?

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:26-28 NIV) 

God is more interested in building your character than building your platform 🔥

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember to remain humble before the Lord as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.” (James 4:10 NIV)

Don’t shrink back … let your light SHINE 🔥

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember to shine for Christ as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16 NIV)
