Hi, I'm Firm Faith
As a child, I despised my name. Now, I realize that God has called me to help leaders like you exercise firm faith to make the wise decisions that you need to make, to achieve the desires that He has placed in your heart. I was blessed to see this verse with my name:
"If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all (Isaiah 7:9)."
The verse below also reminds me of how God is leading me to serve you through the LOVE membership.
"... All that matters is faith, expressed through love" (Galatians 5:6).
I invite you to join me and other wise leaders in the LOVE membership.
What's in the LOVE membership for me?

"A person has joy in an apt answer, and how delightful is a timely word!"
(Proverbs 15:23).
Leadership Coaching
Receive group coaching and opportunities to sit in a "hot" well actually a "love" seat to help you discern and commit to your next wise steps.
"A plan in the heart of a person is like deep water, but a person of understanding draws it out" (Proverbs 20:5).
Community of Wise Leaders
Interact and network with wise leaders by sharing and receiving wise counsel and encouraging each other to plan, prepare, promote, and present your love offering.

Your name and your talk will always be there in my mind...
Your firm faith principles are also very inspiring….emotional enough to force me to think deeply about life and strong enough to help people stay motivated…

Virtual Course Design Challenge Participant
Thank you for running your Virtual Course Design challenge last summer in a way that was open to the broader academic community. I learned a lot not only from the content that you presented, but also through appreciating the design of the associated Canvas course...
I also appreciated the meetups you hosted on Zoom to talk through some of the ideas. I enjoyed meeting others from outside my college who were facing the same challenges.
Overall, I feel grateful to have had this structured and supportive environment in which to think through my choices and celebrate everyone’s progress at the end of the session.
I have brought my perspectives from the challenge back to my campus to help my colleagues as they re-designed their courses. I have also since redesigned most of my Canvas course spaces following principles from your [challenge], and I believe that this has helped my students navigate the online spaces of my course even better.
I intend to keep these design features when we return face-to-face.
Thanks again for making an impact!
Dr. Elizabeth Leininger,
Assistant Professor, Division of Natural Sciences, New College of Florida
Leadership Coaching and Consultation
"Firm Faith was instrumental in my decision to pursue my passion through entrepreneurship. For the past two years, I have been growing ATTECS, LLC - an independent center for teaching and learning. But, it came about as a result of much deliberation and reflection: "What is your heart's desire?" discussion
with Firm Faith really helped clarify my choice."

"This is the Membership I Desire!"
Without faith it is impossible to please God. He that comes to God must believe that He IS and that He rewards those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).
What if what you need is not more of what you have been trying or thinking, but wisdom and firm faith that works through love?
Let me help you exercise firm faith to plan, prepare, promote, and present your authentic love offering.
