5 Influential Women Who Shaped Church History

February 18, 2026/in Entrepreneur Education, Entrepreneur Ministry, Entrepreneur Spiritual Growth, Entrepreneurship/by Heather Rosson

The Women History Almost Forgot (But We’re Bringing Them Back)

 

Imagine this: A dusty old church archive full of scrolls, letters, worn-out leather bindings. Tucked between the lines of church history are women’s stories—some barely whispered, others intentionally silenced.

But here’s the truth: Without influential female figures and their contributions to church history, the church wouldn’t be what it is today.

Their stories aren’t just nice-to-know facts. They’re essential reminders that women have always played a pivotal role in God’s Kingdom—leading, teaching, prophesying, nurturing and reforming.

And today, we’re celebrating them.

Because as Christian women entrepreneurs, their courage fuels our calling.

Let’s dive into celebrating influential female figures and their contributions to church history—so you can see the legacy you’re part of.

Name Era Primary Contribution
Lydia Early Church (1st Century) Entrepreneur, first European convert, and house church leader.
Macrina the Younger Patristic Era (4th Century) Theologian and mentor to the Cappadocian Fathers.
Hildegard of Bingen Medieval Period (12th Century) Visionary, composer, and bold preacher to the papacy.
Catherine Booth Victorian Era (19th Century) Co-founder of The Salvation Army and advocate for female ministry.
Jarena Lee 19th Century First authorized African American woman preacher in the AME Church.

1.Lydia: Female Leadership in the Early Church

First up, Lydia. Businesswoman. Dealer of purple cloth (a luxury item). Likely wealthy, well-connected.

When Paul met Lydia (Acts 16), she became the first convert in Europe. But Lydia didn’t just say amen and sit back. She opened her home for worship, likely becoming a founding leader of the Philippian church.

Her financial contributions and hospitality helped the Gospel take root in Europe.

Why she matters: Lydia is proof that entrepreneurship and ministry aren’t separate lanes. Your business can fuel Kingdom work.

Celebrating influential female figures like Lydia reminds us that our businesses are part of God’s mission.

2. Macrina the Younger: Shape Theology in the Patristic Era

I bet you’ve heard of the Cappadocian Fathers—Basil the Great, Gregory of Nyssa, Gregory of Nazianzus.

But behind their theological brilliance? Their sister—Macrina the Younger.

She was a theologian, teacher, and monastic leader, shaping her brothers’ spiritual formation. Gregory of Nyssa wrote about her with deep respect, calling her “the Teacher.”

Without Macrina, the theological foundations of the early church would look very different.

Why she matters: Macrina shows us that women shape theology, even if their names don’t always make the headlines.

When we celebrate influential female figures and their contributions to church history, we honor the hidden influencers too.

3. Hildegard of Bingen: Visionary Leader in the Medieval Period

A 12th-century Renaissance woman (before the Renaissance was a thing).

Hildegard of Bingen was a:

  • Composer of sacred music 
  • Writer of theological texts 
  • Preacher who spoke truth to power 
  • Herbalist and healer 

Her visions, which she called revelations from God, inspired her writings on theology, science, and medicine.

Why she matters: Hildegard reminds us that creativity and leadership are not mutually exclusive. She boldly spoke in a time when women weren’t supposed to preach.

Celebrating influential female figures like Hildegard shows us how multi-passionate leadership can thrive in faith spaces.

4. Catherine Booth: Powerful Preacher in the Victorian Era

When you think of the Salvation Army, you might picture brass bands or red kettles.

But it was Catherine Booth, alongside her husband William, who co-founded it. And Catherine?

She preached. Powerfully.

In fact, many said she was the better preacher of the two. Her fiery sermons on social justice and the Gospel helped shape the Salvation Army’s mission.

Why she matters: Catherine Booth normalized women preaching in the 19th century—arguing that if God calls, no human should silence.

Celebrating influential female figures like Catherine affirms that women’s voices belong in the pulpit and in social reform.

5. Jarena Lee: First African American Woman Preacher in the 19th Century

In the early 1800s, Jarena Lee felt God calling her to preach. But the male leaders in the African Methodist Episcopal Church told her no.

That didn’t stop her.

Eventually, the church recognized her calling, and she preached to thousands across the U.S. Her autobiography shares her journey of faith, struggle, and triumph.

Why she matters: Jarena Lee’s story reminds us that women of color have shaped church history—even when they had to fight twice as hard to be heard.

When we celebrate influential female figures and their contributions to church history, we commit to telling the whole story—including the voices that history tried to silence.

Why This Matters for Us Today

You might be wondering: Why dive into church history when I’m just trying to run my business and serve my clients?

Here’s why.

These influential female figures didn’t separate their faith, work, and leadership—they integrated them.

  • Lydia leveraged her business to support ministry.
  • Macrina used her wisdom to shape theological giants.
  • Hildegard blended creativity and leadership.
  • Catherine Booth combined preaching and social justice.
  • Jarena Lee persisted through barriers to fulfill her calling.

Sound familiar?

You, dear entrepreneur, are walking in their footsteps.

When you lead your business, mentor others, or speak truth—you’re part of the same legacy. Your contributions matter just as theirs did.

Final Thoughts: Don’t Let History Forget You

Church history is full of forgotten women—but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

By celebrating influential female figures and their contributions to church history, we reclaim the narrative. And we remind ourselves that we, too, are writing history.

Your leadership, your business, your faith—it’s part of God’s story.

So keep showing up. Keep leading. Keep making history.

And if you’re ready to connect with other women writing their own faith-driven stories, join us at NACWE. Together, we’re not just celebrating history—we’re making it.

21 of the Best Encouraging Bible Verses for Women

January 28, 2026/in Devotion to God, Devotions, Entrepreneurship/by NACWE Admin

(Especially When You’re Worn Out and Wondering What’s Next)

Ever tried praying with one eye open, stirring dinner with one hand and replying to a client message with the other?

Yep. Same.

If you’re part of our NACWE sisterhood—a community of women who feel called to both business and belief—you know the battle. You love Jesus, but also have to deal with deadlines. You want to walk in peace, but the notifications won’t stop. You’re trying to be faithful… and profitable… and not lose your mind.

That’s why this post exists. No five-step strategy. No marketing jargon. Just Scripture. The real, encouraging kind your soul is craving.

These are 21 of the best encouraging Bible verses for women—handpicked for those of us who love the Lord and still have a website tab open with 14 things we “should” be doing right now.

Here’s your permission to pause.

Let these verses remind you that you are not forgotten, not falling behind, and not failing. You’re just being refined.

Sometimes, the most productive thing you can do isn’t a new system—it’s creating space for rest. So, breathe deep. Let God speak. He sees you.

1. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.”

Not “those who hustle” or “those who have it all figured out.” Just those who hope.

2. Proverbs 31:25 (ESV)

“She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she laughs at the time to come.”

You don’t have to fear the future. You can actually laugh at it. Imagine that.

3. Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

Even pricing your offer at a level that makes your voice shake.

4. Joshua 1:9 (NIV)

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.
Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged,
for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Even on Zoom. Even in the pitch meeting. Even at the kitchen table when the kids won’t nap.

5. Psalm 46:5 (NIV)

“God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.”

Even if the coffee didn’t kick in yet.

6. Romans 8:28 (NIV)

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,
who have been called according to his purpose.”

Yes, even this thing you’re walking through right now.

7. 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you,
for my power is made perfect in weakness.’”

It’s okay to admit you’re not enough. That’s where He steps in.

8. Psalm 139:14 (NIV)

“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well.”

You were not made to be small. You were made to reflect His glory.

9. Galatians 6:9 (NIV)

“Let us not become weary in doing good,
for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

You’re not behind. You’re just in seed-planting season.

10. Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)

“So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

You don’t have to hold it all together. He’s holding you.

11. Matthew 11:28 (NIV)

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Permission granted: take a nap. Cancel the meeting. Breathe.

12. 1 Peter 5:7 (NIV)

“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”

Even the anxiety that pretends to be “just being responsible.”

13. Zephaniah 3:17 (NIV)

“The Lord your God is with you,
the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you;
in his love he will no longer rebuke you,
but will rejoice over you with singing.”

God is not disappointed in you. He’s delighted in you.

14. Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord,
‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”

Your spreadsheet may look scary. But His plans are still good.

15. Hebrews 11:1 (NIV)

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”

Your calling may not “make sense” to others. Keep going anyway.

16. Psalm 23:1 (NIV)

“The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.”

Not validation. Not clarity. Not money. Not connection. Nothing.

17. Ephesians 2:10 (NIV)

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works,
which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

You don’t need to force your calling. Just follow it.

18. 2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

That panic you’re feeling? That’s not from Him. Send it packing.

19. Psalm 34:5 (NIV)

“Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.”

You don’t need to hide your gifts. You shine when you look to Him.

20. Lamentations 3:22-23 (ESV)

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.”

You’re not running out of time. You’re running into fresh mercy.

21. John 15:5 (NIV)

“I am the vine; you are the branches.
If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit;
apart from me you can do nothing.”

Let’s stop trying to do business apart from the One who gave us the idea in the first place.

Feeling a little more grounded?

That’s the goal. Because we weren’t called to live stressed out and spiritually dry. We were called to live connected. Deep roots. Living water. Real growth.

If you’re navigating the unique challenges of blending faith and business, you’re not alone. Many Christian women entrepreneurs feel the same tug between marketing strategy and spiritual calling.

Whether you’re building a new offer or simply praying for your business, remember, God is guiding every step.

And if you’re looking for more than just verses—if you want a real community of women walking out this faith-and-business life with you—you’ll love being part of NACWE.

Bible Verses for Business Success: Faith-Based Wisdom for Christian Entrepreneurs

January 21, 2026/in Christian Woman Entrepreneur, Devotion to God, Entrepreneur Spiritual Growth, Entrepreneurship/by NACWE Admin

Building a successful business requires more than strategy, skill, and determination—it also requires wisdom, integrity, and purpose. For Christian entrepreneurs, Scripture provides timeless guidance on leadership, stewardship, perseverance, and prosperity. If you’re seeking encouragement and direction rooted in faith and business, these bible verses for business success offer powerful insights to help you grow a business that honors God while achieving meaningful results.

Why Faith Matters in Business

Business success is often defined by revenue, growth, and recognition. While those metrics matter, the Bible consistently points to a deeper measure of success—faithfulness, obedience, and wise stewardship. Scripture reminds us that God cares not only about what we build, but how we build it, especially for those starting a Christian business with the desire to serve both God and others.

Incorporating biblical principles into your business decisions can help you:

  • Lead with integrity
  • Make wise long-term choices
  • Stay resilient during challenges
  • Keep your purpose aligned with God’s will

The following bible verses for business success are especially relevant for entrepreneurs, leaders, and professionals seeking to integrate faith and work.

Bible Verses About Wisdom and Decision-Making

Sound decision-making is essential in business. The Bible repeatedly emphasizes wisdom as a key to success.

Proverbs 16:3
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”

This verse reminds business owners to begin with surrender. When your goals, strategies, and ambitions are committed to God, He provides direction and stability—an essential foundation for any faith-based business.

James 1:5
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault.”

Every entrepreneur faces uncertainty. This verse reassures us that wisdom is not something we must generate alone—it’s something God willingly provides.

Proverbs 3:5–6
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”

In business, it’s tempting to rely solely on experience or data. Scripture encourages us to trust God even when the path forward isn’t clear.

Bible Verses for Diligence and Hard Work

Success rarely comes without effort. The Bible consistently affirms the value of diligence.

Proverbs 10:4
“Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth.”

This verse highlights a biblical principle many entrepreneurs live by—consistent, disciplined effort leads to growth.

Colossians 3:23
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.”

When business becomes an act of worship, excellence becomes non-negotiable. This mindset transforms everyday tasks into meaningful service.

Proverbs 22:29
“Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings.”

Skill, preparation, and professionalism matter. God honors those who pursue mastery and take their responsibilities seriously.

Bible Verses About Integrity in Business

Integrity is foundational for long-term business success. Trust, reputation, and credibility are built through ethical choices.

Proverbs 11:1
“The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with him.”

Honesty in pricing, contracts, and communication is not optional for Christian entrepreneurs—it’s a reflection of God’s character and the heart of ethical business practices inspired by scripture.

Luke 16:10
“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.”

Faithfulness in small decisions prepares you for greater responsibility and influence.

Proverbs 20:7
“The righteous lead blameless lives; blessed are their children after them.”

Integrity in business doesn’t just impact profits—it creates a legacy.

Bible Verses for Provision and Prosperity

Many Christians struggle with the idea of prosperity. Scripture clarifies that God is not opposed to success—He is opposed to greed, pride, and misplaced priorities.

Deuteronomy 8:18
“Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth.”

This verse centers success where it belongs: God is the source, not the business owner.

Matthew 6:33
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”

When God’s priorities come first, provision follows in His timing.

Psalm 127:1
“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.”

True business success is sustainable only when God is at the foundation.

Bible Verses for Perseverance and Resilience

Every business faces obstacles—economic shifts, failed launches, setbacks, and doubt. Scripture offers encouragement to keep going.

Galatians 6:9
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

Persistence matters. This verse is especially meaningful for entrepreneurs in difficult seasons.

Isaiah 41:10
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.”

You are never building alone. God’s presence provides strength when confidence runs low.

Romans 8:28
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.”

Even setbacks can be part of a larger purpose.

Applying Bible Verses for Business Success Today

Reading Scripture is powerful, but applying it is transformative. Here are practical ways to integrate these bible verses for business success into daily operations:

  • Pray before major decisions
  • Build ethical guidelines rooted in biblical values
  • Lead your team with humility and fairness
  • Define success beyond profit alone
  • Trust God during seasons of uncertainty

Faith-based business isn’t about perfection—it’s about alignment.

Final Thoughts

The Bible offers more than encouragement—it offers a blueprint for sustainable, purpose-driven success. These bible verses for business success remind Christian entrepreneurs that growth, provision, and impact are deeply connected to faith, wisdom, and integrity.

Whether you’re launching a new venture, scaling an existing business, or navigating challenges, Scripture provides steady guidance. When you build with God at the center, success becomes more than an outcome—it becomes a testimony.

What Does the Bible Say About Finding Your Purpose in Life?

January 7, 2026/in Christian Woman Entrepreneur, Entrepreneur Community, Entrepreneurship/by NACWE Admin

You can only organize the pantry so many times before the question hits you:

“Is this it?”

You’ve followed the rules, checked the boxes, done the devotionals, volunteered at VBS, and even built a business out of your God-given gifts. But somehow…you’re still wondering what your real purpose is.

Not the “be a good mom” purpose. Not the “serve at church” purpose.

You want the kind of purpose that lets you breathe deeply and say, “Yes. This is what I was created for.”

So… what does the Bible say about finding your purpose in life?

Let’s talk about it—messy middle and all.

First, You’re Not the Only One Wondering

Our NACWE community is full of brilliant, faith-filled Christian women entrepreneurs just like you—entrepreneurs who are building businesses while still trying to figure out how to make dinner without burning the garlic bread.

They love God. They want to serve. They want to make money (without feeling weird about it). And yet, they wonder:

“What if I’m missing it? What if I’m doing business…but not my calling?”

If that’s you, I’ve got good news: You are not lost. And you are not behind.

The Bible has plenty to say about your purpose—and it’s a lot less complicated than Instagram makes it look.

Your Purpose Isn’t Hiding from You

Sometimes we treat purpose like it’s a puzzle God left behind on a sticky note that got swept behind the refrigerator.

But the Bible doesn’t describe God as someone who hides important things from us. In fact:

“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” — James 1:5

So instead of imagining that finding your purpose is some kind of cosmic scavenger hunt, what if you believed that God wants you to know it?

He’s not dangling it in front of you like a carrot. He’s placed it within you.

And sometimes, discovering it begins with learning how to surrender to God—to let go of your need for certainty and trust that He’s already laid the groundwork.

You Were Created On Purpose, For a Purpose

Let’s go back to the basics:

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” — Ephesians 2:10

This verse doesn’t say you’ll discover your purpose once you hit 6 figures in revenue. It says:

  • You’re God’s handiwork.
  • You were created to do good works.
  • Those works were prepared in advance.

That means your purpose isn’t some futuristic destination. It’s woven into how you were made and what God’s already planned for you.

You don’t have to chase it. You just have to recognize it.

Purpose Isn’t Just One Thing

Spoiler alert: Nowhere in Scripture does it say, “Thou shalt find thy one true calling and stick to it forever.”

David was a shepherd, warrior, king, and poet.

Paul was a church planter and a tentmaker.

Jesus was a carpenter before He was a preacher.

Purpose evolves. Seasons shift. Roles change.

So if you’re in a business-building season, that doesn’t mean you’ve missed your calling as a mother, minister, or mentor. Your purpose may stretch across multiple callings—and they all count.

Your business? It’s not just a side hustle. It can be part of your Kingdom work—an expression of faith and business working together.

Purpose Isn’t About Platform—It’s About People

We live in a world that makes “purpose” feel like it has to be big, visible, and Insta-worthy.

But Jesus didn’t tell Peter, “Go build your brand.”

He said, “Feed my sheep” (John 21:17).

Sometimes your purpose looks like coaching clients. Other times, it’s being available when your friend texts you at 10:47pm saying, “Can you pray for me?”

Either way, you’re living on purpose when you’re faithful to what’s right in front of you.

Purpose + Business = Not a Sin

Let’s clear this up.

Making money isn’t unholy.

Wanting a profitable business isn’t selfish.

You are not more spiritual if your business stays small and under the radar.

The Proverbs 31 woman ran a household, bought fields, managed servants, and sold goods. And the Bible calls her wise and worthy of praise.

So if you’ve been shrinking back, thinking, “I can’t possibly build this business and honor God,”—pause that thought.

You’re not just allowed to step into your purpose through business.

You’re invited.

When You Still Feel Like You Don’t Know

Let me guess: You’re nodding along and still thinking, “That’s great, but I still don’t know what MY purpose is.”

That’s okay.

Sometimes purpose doesn’t show up as a lightning bolt. Sometimes it looks more like:

  • The conversation that stirs something in your spirit
  • The project that makes you lose track of time
  • The client who says, “That changed my life”

Start there.

Purpose is often revealed in the doing, not just the praying.

And sometimes, it’s revealed in the middle of the ordinary. Right when you least expect it, God shows up and offers you peace in chaos—and suddenly, your next step becomes clear.

Want to Surround Yourself with Purpose-Driven Women?
