About Equipping Godly Women
Equipping Godly Women is a non-denominational Christian lifestyle site that provides busy moms with the practical advice, resources, and encouragement they need to enjoy a strong faith and a close family — without all the guilt and overwhelm.
We aren’t here to preach at you, shame you, interpret the Bible for you, hold you up to an impossible standard, or insist you have to believe exactly like we do. (That’d be silly.)
Instead, think of us like your big sister in the faith. Your cheerleader. Your coach. Your mentor. Your overly enthusiastic friend who can’t wait to cheer you on (but will absolutely give you a kick in the pants when needed). Not your pastor or therapist.
Our mission? To inspire, challenge, encourage, and equip you to live out YOUR God-given calling with joy.
What do you need to grow in faith and family? We’re here to share the resources, information, tips, and advice we’ve found helpful – so you can make the right choices for you and your family in this season.
We’re a community of Jesus-loving Christian women committed to growing in faith and family, and we believe:

Official Statement of Belief
Regarding: The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God. It was written to help us know God, understand His will for our lives, attain salvation, and love others well.
As faithful Christians, we have a responsibility to read, study, and understand God’s Word accurately so we can live according to its commands to the best of our ability.
Yet, while the Bible is inerrant, our human understanding is not. In addition to studying the Bible for ourselves, we also need to consult additional resources and learn in a diverse community of believers who will challenge, correct, and strengthen our beliefs.
Regarding: The Trinity
We believe in one God (the Christian God), who exists in three persons: God, the Father; Jesus, the Son; and the Holy Spirit. He always has been and always will be.
Because God created the Universe and everything in it, He knows how it works best, even when his rules don’t make sense to us. His plan is always for our good.
Jesus was truly born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died for our sins, and rose from the dead to free us from sin and death. Now, as believers, the Holy Spirit continually works in our hearts to instruct us, guide us, and empower us to love God and others.
Regarding: Salvation
We believe God offers everyone the free gift of salvation. However, as human beings with free will, we have the choice to accept or reject God’s perfect will for our lives.
We absolutely cannot earn our salvation (it’s a free gift from God), but we know that a true, living faith will naturally produce good works. If we aren’t growing in love for God and others or producing spiritual fruit, we may not be the Christians we think we are.
We seek to obey God’s will for our lives out of love and gratitude, not out of a sense of striving, trying to “measure up,” or trying to earn God’s love, approval, or favor.
Regarding: Marriage
We believe God intended marriage to be a lifelong, unbreakable covenant between one man and one woman, where both love, honor, respect, and submit to each other.
However, life is not a fairy tale, humans have free will, sin is real, and there are times when boundaries, separation, and even divorce are biblical, wise, and necessary.
We cannot control our husbands. (They have free will.) But we do have a responsibility to God, our husbands, our children, and ourselves to do everything within our power to seek God above all, love well, and live above reproach, no matter what others do.
Regarding: Parenting
We believe children are a gift from God, and as their parents, we have a responsibility to raise them well. This includes explicitly teaching them about God, modeling the Christian life for them, and making sure they have godly mentors and influences.
This does not mean we should put our children in a protective bubble. Kids should learn about the “real world” in appropriate ways under the guidance of their parents.
No parent or child is perfect, and God doesn’t expect us to be. Families provide the training ground kids need to grow in love, faith, compassion, and service to others.
Regarding: Work and Home
We believe God calls and equips us all uniquely, and no calling is more valuable than another. Whether you’re an accomplished career woman, a mom of multiples, loving the single life, or anything else, your mission field is right where God has placed you.
As Christians, we have a sacred responsibility to identify, nurture, and use our God-given gifts and talents in the service to others — not to shrink in fear and play it small.
There are few things in life more God-honoring than fully living out who God called and uniquely created you to be. And few things in life more devastating to miss out on.
Regarding: Community
We believe God created believers to live in community. This includes regular church attendance, meeting with other godly women, serving others, and making disciples.
We NEED others’ wisdom, advice, and perspective to help us make wise life choices. We need to be challenged, encouraged, and held accountable for living our faith well. And we need to share this same wisdom, advice, and perspective with others in need.
However, we are under no obligation to “light ourselves on fire to keep others warm.” There are times when setting limits and boundaries is necessary and appropriate.
