Episode 207: Amy Orr-Ewing
Amy Orr-Ewing's story is a powerful testament to how God can use our lives in extraordinary ways when we are open to His leading. As a young woman, Amy experienced a prophetic call to go to Afghanistan and share the gospel, which she courageously pursued despite the risks. This experience shaped her life and ministry, empowering her to become a bold and effective leader in defending the Christian faith. Now, Amy has written the book "Lead Like the Real You" with the purpose of empowering young women to step into their calling and lead authentically. She wants to provide the mentorship and encouragement that she wished she had received at a younger age. Amy's story and her new book are an inspiration to all women to follow the Holy Spirit's prompting, even in the face of adversity, and to empower the next generation of women leaders. Let us be encouraged to lead like the real, authentic selves that God has created us to be.
