I love using stories to give you practical advice to grow in every area of your life. Whether you need encouragement in your life, practical advice for your business, or hope for your faith, you’re in the right place. Every Monday, you can start your week with my faith-based show, Get Your Hopes Up, as I show you how to get to know God, get closer to Him and get your hopes up again. And every Tuesday, you can learn how to build, run and grow your business with my new show, Business Bootcamp, where I give you the practical steps you want and the tough love truth you need to succeed in business. Whether you’re a loyal subscriber that’s been with me since the Business Boutique days in 2015, or you aren’t even sure how you ended up on this channel, I’m glad you’re here. And I hope you find the hope and help you’re looking for. For more encouragement in life, faith and business, check out ChristyWright.com.

In this video, I'll share one important truth that will help you wake up excited, not overwhelmed, about the day ahead. How God Uses You in Your Work with Jordan Raynor Have you ever felt like the only way you can serve God is by becoming a pastor or joining a full-time ministry? Today, my friend Jordan Raynor explains why all types of work matter to God. Does God Care About Your Work? "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters." Colossians 3:23 (NIV) This verse completely changed my perspective on work. I don't know about you, but when I know that God cares about the details of my work, it makes me want to step it up, give it my best effort, and work to please him. Whether you're the CEO in the corner office, or you're waiting tables, or you're a stay-at-home mom, God wants each of us to put our entire heart into our work. Spend a few minutes journaling your answers to these questions: Where do you see God in your work right now? How can you remember that God is using you right now in your work? How can you do your work unto the Lord more intentionally?

And finally, we'll end with a few journal questions about how God's word encourages us through difficulty. When Things Don't Go Your Way, Remember This Are you feeling lost? When we're in the middle of hard things, we quickly lose perspective and give up hope. In this video, I'll share an important truth that will help you find the courage to keep going. Do THIS When Life Doesn't Make Sense with Angie Smith When you're going through something hard, it's easy to question, God, where are you? I sat down with my good friend Angie Smith and talked about how to trust God even when we don't understand the story He's writing. How Your Story Fits Into God's Story "For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope." Romans 15:4 (NIV) From beginning to end, the Bible is full of hope. When we open the Scriptures, we find encouragement for our story by reading about the greater story. Here are a few journal questions to help unpack this idea: Have you ever thought of the Bible as one big story? What is the point of the story of Scripture? What part of God's story do you want to know more about?

We're talking about how to get excited about life again, just like we were when we were kids. I also get to have an awesome conversation with Harris III (an illusionist, speaker, author and entrepreneur) on the topic of wonder. Finally, we'll wrap up the show with a few journal questions. What to Do When Life Gets Boring Between all the errands and chores and work tasks and commitments, it's easy to feel like you're running a business instead of actually living your life. If you're tired of going through the motions, check out these three steps that will help you break out of boredom and experience more joy and wonder. Is THIS Stealing Your Joy? with Harris III According to Harris III, wonder is "A childlike state in which we have permission to believe in a story we have yet to see." The problem is, so many of us live with negative stories running through our heads all day. But it doesn't have to be that way. Harris III shares some practical tips on how to change your story and see limitless possibilities for your life. What Fills You With Wonder? "When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?" Psalm 8:3-4 (NIV) God is performing miracles around us all the time. But often, we're so caught up in our crazy lives that we don't even notice what He's doing! When we actually pause to look at the world around us and see how creative and powerful our God is, we'll be filled with a sense of wonder. I want to give you some journal questions to help you process this: What fills you with wonder? What gets in the way of you being filled with wonder and awe? What's one thing you want to do to take action on this idea of wonder so you can create it in your own life?

What You Need to Know to Build Your Business with Pat Flynn Creatives and entrepreneurs are yes-people. We have a million ideas a minute! So how do you decide which ones are worth your time and attention? I asked Pat Flynn that exact question in our interview. He has lots of practical advice to share about balancing our current projects with our squirrel-brain ideas. What Are Your Goals and Dreams in Life? "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows." Galatians 6:7 (NIV) I love this verse because it reminds us that we are responsible for the choices we make in life. We're going to get results based on the actions we take-good or bad. Yes, God is at work in us, but we get to partner with Him. That's pretty incredible, y'all. Spend a few minutes digging into this concept by answering these journal questions: What are those things you've been thinking about but haven't done anything about yet?

What to Do When Your Child Is Anxious with Sissy Goff My guest for today, Sissy Goff, has been a counselor for 30 years. In our interview, she shares practical tips on how to spot the warning signs of anxiety in our kids and how to love them well through mental health challenges. Don't Worry About THIS . . . "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life . . ." Matthew 6:25 (NIV) I love this passage because it reminds us that it's actually possible to train our minds not to worry! Instead of listening to negative thoughts and worrying about the same old problems, we can choose to focus on our heavenly Father, who loves us and is always taking care of us. Easier said than done, right? To help make this truth a reality, spend some time journaling your answers to these questions: What do you worry about the most? How does Matthew 6:25-34 help you remember not to worry? What comfort do you find when you remember that God will take care of you?

I'll also talk to my friend Crystal Paine about her new book, Love-Centered Parenting, and how we can love ourselves while loving our kids. And we'll close today's show with a few journal questions. Why Loving Yourself Doesn't Have to be Selfish Some of you are already mad at me for bringing this up. As Christians, we're not supposed to love ourselves, right? Here are three reasons why self-love is actually a good thing. Become a Great Parent with Crystal Paine You can't offer something you don't have. So, if you're not receiving the love of your heavenly father, how can you give love to others? In today's interview, Crystal Paine-author, speaker and entrepreneur-talks about her new book, Love-Centered Parenting, and why loving our kids well starts with letting God love us. Love Others (as Yourself) "The most important [commandment]," answered Jesus, "is this . . . 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." Mark 12:29-31 (NIV) When Jesus says to "love your neighbor as yourself," he's implying that we already do love ourselves. It's our gut instinct to love and protect and take care of ourselves, so we should have that same level of care for the people around us. Let's unpack this idea with a few journal questions: Who's someone you love? Describe your love for that person. Be honest: What do you think about yourself? Why is it hard for you to love yourself?

We'll wrap up today's show by journaling about making quiet time a priority. 3 Ways to Make Time for Quiet Time For years, I struggled to read scripture, even though I know how powerful it is! But thankfully, I discovered a system that helped me overcome the obstacles that were keeping me from time with God. In this video, I unpack my system in three simple steps. How to Enjoy Reading Your Bible with Brittany Ann The REAL problem most of us have with our quiet time is that we're not passionate about spending time with God. In today's interview, I talk to author and Bible teacher Brittany Ann about her new book, Fall in Love with God's Word. She'll share practical strategies about bridging the gap between wanting to read more and actually doing it. You Need THIS to Read Your Bible "All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV) All of the things we could ever want or need in life are found in God's word. So, why does it feel like a chore to open up our Bibles? I encourage you to dig deep on this topic by responding to these journal questions: How do you feel about reading your Bible? What would help you have alone time? What is one thing you could do this week to give yourself what you need to have that alone time?

The Secret to Loving Your House "I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty." Philippians 4:11-12 (NIV) Even with a spotless, Pinterest-perfect house, we can still be unhappy with what we have. That's why this verse from Philippians is so powerful: It reminds us that with the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be content in any circumstance! Let's bring this concept home by answering these journal questions: What do you love about your home? How does it change the way you view your home when you set your mind on what you're grateful for?

I'll share four practical steps you can take to make and keep awesome friends. Also, I get to sit down with two of my best friends, Jenny and Sarah. We'll wrap up the show with a few journal questions about the importance of friendship. 4 Ways to Have Great Friendships as an Adult Let's face it: It's hard to make friends as an adult. We don't have many natural ways to meet new people. We get set in our ways and get busy with kids and work and errands. If you want to have more friends-or better friendships-you're going to have to decide to make time for it. Here are four practical actions you can take to get started! How to Make Time for Friends In today's interview, I get to sit down with two of my real-life best friends! Through all of life's ups and downs and changes and challenges, we've managed to make time for each other. No-it's not always easy to coordinate calendars. But it's worth it. We'll share some of secrets that have helped us maintain our friendship for almost two decades. What Do Your Friendships Look Like? "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor. If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up! Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 (NIV) We weren't created to live alone. We need community. I want you to have people who will be there for you-people you can laugh and cry with, share the bad things with, and celebrate your milestones with. To start making some practical changes in the area of friendship, spend some time journaling your thoughts to these questions: What are you looking for in friendships right now? What specific types of friendships do you desire this year? What's one step you can take to grow your friendships this year?

You'll receive five days of encouragement focused on helping you become a more confident you! https://bit.ly/2NzFVmC Women, I believe, face a specific challenge: We downplay our success out of a sense of shame. I tackle that lie in today's show. I also get to interview Jamie Kern Lima, founder of IT Cosmetics, which is the fastest-growing cosmetic company in the world. She knows a thing or two about success! Finally, we'll wrap with some journaling prompts about celebrating-not shaming-our success. You Need to Stop Doing This Today . . . Why is it so hard to accept compliments? I believe it's because we don't know what true humility looks like. The next time someone notices or congratulates you, don't dismiss or downplay it. Say this instead. Why It's Okay to Be Successful with Jamie Kern Lima Before she started IT Cosmetics, Jamie Kern Lima was saving her tip money from waiting tables at Denny's to buy fancy makeup. But just a few years ago, she sold her company for $1.2 billion! In our interview, Jamie shares the lessons she's learned about hard work, rejection and-ultimately-success. How Do You Respond to Compliments? "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." - James 1:17 (NIV) There's nothing we accomplish or enjoy on our own effort. Every single thing-from our relationships to our skills to our opportunities-is a gift from God. That's a humbling (and freeing) truth! Let's unpack it with a few journaling questions: How do you normally respond to compliments? What does humility look like to you? How can you practice being grateful for everything God has done and is doing in your life?

Also, I'm so excited to share part two of my interview with Matthew McConaughey. He tells some personal stories about how he's built confidence throughout his life. And finally, I'll leave you with a few journal questions that will help you walk boldly into the new things God is doing in your life. Why You Should Take More Risks Life is full of challenges that feel too big for us. When you're facing something scary, should you wait until you feel confident before acting, or should you just go for it? I'll unpack the answer in today's teaching. How Matthew McConaughey Built Confidence What's the secret to confidence? It's knowing who you are. And it helps when people in your life remind you when you've forgotten. Matthew McConaughey shares an inspiring (and hilarious) story about how his mom instilled a sense of confidence in him from a young age. How to Listen to God "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" - Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV) New things are both exciting and scary. Maybe you find yourself starting a new position at work, entering a new season of life, or launching a new business. Whatever you're experiencing, here are a few journal questions that will help you process what's going on: What new thing do you sense God is doing in your life? What do you sense God is urging you to do about it? What would it look like to just try it?

And y'all, I'm so excited to share part one of my interview with actor, producer, and New York Times bestselling author Matthew McConaughey. To wrap up the show, we'll work through a few journal questions that will help us be optimistic and focus on the good things in our lives. Why Being Optimistic Is So Important Our minds are powerful. And when you change how you think about life, you'll change how you experience it. For today's teaching, we'll talk about a simple truth that will help you take control of your thoughts, be more positive, and see the good in your life. Matthew McConaughey's Advice About Life I had the opportunity to sit down with Matthew McConaughey: actor, producer and New York Times bestselling author of the new book Greenlights. For decades, he's been acting out the stories of other people. Now, he gets to share his own story-and it's packed with wisdom and humor and life lessons. What You Should Be Thinking About Right Now "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things." - Philippians 4:8 (NIV) Optimism is God's idea. No matter your personality style or life circumstances, all of us are commanded by God to think about what is good. And God calls us to be different for a reason: so we can be examples of joy and hope and peace and put Him on display for the world. Let's apply today's truth by working through these journal questions: What are you looking for? What are you thinking about and focusing on? What are some things that are good in your life right now? Make a list of things to be grateful for. What's one thing that you can do today to put optimism into practice?

You'll receive five days of encouragement focused on helping you become a more confident you! https://bit.ly/2YkAZnQ Where does confidence come from? Today, we're going to get to the root of it by talking about three areas of life where you can find confidence. I'll also talk to the incredible speaker, coach, author and Bible teacher Alli Worthington about her personal journey with confidence. And as always, we'll wrap up with a few journal questions so we can actually apply these ideas about confidence to our own lives. 3 Ways to Build Confidence In today's teaching, we're going to cut through the lies we're told about confidence. No, it's not something you're born with. And no, it's not something that's dependent on your circumstances. We'll cover three practical things you can know and do that will help you build real, authentic, unshakeable confidence. Why Being Confident Is So Misunderstood with Alli Worthington Author, speaker and Bible teacher Alli Worthington has an important truth we need to hear: God has great plans for every woman. Every. Single. One. In our interview, Alli and I talk about how we can find the confidence we need to overcome adversity and face our future with boldness. Where Do You Find Confidence? "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." - Hebrews 11:1 (NIV) According to the Bible, faith equals confidence. As Christians, we might shy away from confidence, thinking that it means we're self-centered. But God calls us to have confidence, not in ourselves, but in Him-His character and His ways. Spend a few moments journaling about the truths we're covering in this video: How do you feel about the word confidence? What feelings or beliefs do you have around the idea of confidence? How can you lean on your faith to build confidence? How can you practice courage this week? What's an area of your life where you're willing to practice a skill over and over again to build confidence?
