As Christian working women, we are often faced with the tension of finding a balance between our workplace, family, and church. How can we lead confidently as the women God designed us to be and do the work God assigned us? Today’s show goes to Orange County, California, to speak with Helen Mitchell about unleashing Christian women to live and lead authentically in their workplaces – be it the marketplace, a nonprofit, or the home. Helen is the Director of the Talbot Center for Faith, Work & Economics at the Talbot School of Theology at Biola University and an Ethics and Leadership Professor in the Crowell School of Business at Biola University. She is also an author, speaker, and leadership and strategy coach. Helen’s leadership in the business world, the local church, and academia gives her the background to build bridges between the church and the marketplace. She is influencing the next generation of business leaders and women in the marketplace.
Helen met Jesus at the age of eight at a church camp and, at 15 years old, felt the call to pastoral ministry. She recalls telling the Lord that she would serve Him with her whole life. “No matter where?” God responded. She went on to an Executive role in AT&T and then helped architect the Marketplace Ministry at Saddleback Church, resulting in over 300 small groups across Southern California. Helen challenges us as women to step up and step out in our God-Given callings and purpose, but only after we fully step into our God-given identity.

In today’s show, Dr. Rowlanda Cawthon, the Dean of the College of Business at Northwest University, talks about advocating for yourself & others, the mysterious leading of the Holy Spirit, & trusting God in the face of opposition.

Studies show that men and women generally demonstrate similar levels of ambition and talent as they start their careers. And although women tend to earn more advanced degrees than their male counterparts, men frequently gain more encouragement and support to pursue their ambitions in the workplace. Dr. Rowlanda Cawthon, the Dean of the College of Business at Northwest University, is an undeniably accomplished woman. In today’s show, she talks with hosts Martha Brangenberg and Catherine Gates about advocating for yourself and others, the mysterious leading of the Holy Spirit, and trusting God in the face of opposition.
Dr. Rowlanda Cawthon worked in criminal justice for almost 11 years before she felt God leading her to go back to school to pursue teaching and a spiritual mentor confirmed the calling. So, she went back for her educational doctorate in organizational leadership – a choice that brought her to where she is today. The Lord has taken Rowlanda in directions she hadn’t planned - getting her Ph.D., working in education - but as she looks back, she can see how God prepared the way. Rowlanda now wants to carry on the mantle that her spiritual director started, to encourage and inspire others to seek God and follow His lead, no matter where it takes them.
