I help women safely reconnect with God. I know what it is like to have so many questions about the Christian faith. If you are like me, you may have some religious baggage that left you questioning your self-worth in a big way. You’re asking... How do I raise my kids with faith when I’m still trying to figure it out? Where can I find a community I can trust? Why does every church feel like culture shock? Will I ever know Jesus? Is Faith something meant for other people? It’s just so overwhelming. And the world keeps telling you you are enough- all on your own, you are enough. …but you don’t feel like it. In fact, you question your self-worth at every opportunity. Friend, I have been there! And here is a secret- without God, you will never be enough. And that is an amazing thing. Keep reading… I’m Shelby Hohsfield. At times, I was an ex-Mormon, agnostic, a Sunday Christian, want-to-be Buddhist, and a New Age follower, but God had very different plans for me. The whole time I was living in one very big lie- that I was in charge of my own enoughness and my works would save me and my life. Don’t get me wrong, I am all about self-help and personal development, but as a born-again, fully transformed Christian, I learned there is the world’s way, and there is God’s way. It took me 20 years after leaving the Mormon church to finally meet God, and when I did, I would never be the same. To quote CS Lewis, ”The more we get ourselves out of the way and let Him take us over, the more truly ourselves we become.” Mere Christianity. You are enough not because of what you have done but because of what He has done, and He lives through you. In this podcast, we are going to dive into Bible truths explained just for Exmos and New Believer mamas so you never have to feel overwhelmed or question your compass or self-worth again. We talk about social pressures, family struggles, basic Christian beliefs, and God’s amazing grace for you. This is the place for theology, apologetics, and wisdom from His word that will shape your life, your confidence, and yes, your feeling of enough. Be prepared for Self-help done in God’s amazing way. Friend, you are in the right place! xoxo, Shelby ___________________________________________________________________ ABOUT YOUR HOST Finding Faith Above is hosted by Shelby Hohsfield. Shelby grew up in a mixed-faith home and attended the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormon or LDS) church until she was 18. As most people do when they leave the church, 85% actually, Shelby left God altogether when she left the LDS church. It wasn’t until she was pregnant with her son that God was made evident to her. From there sparked a quest to FIND FAITH, a fleeting idea that challenged her at every step. After trying all matters of religion for years, she was struck one night when some big things literally brought her to her knees- When things got super hard, it was the surrender to the one true God that changed everything about Shelby’s life, belief, and understanding of this universe we live in. After a 20-year journey after leaving the church, she finally found faith above. As Jesus asked us to do, Shelby now dedicates herself to the great commission- telling the world the good news of Jesus. ___________________________________________________________________ CONNECT WITH ME Email＞ hello@findingfaithabove.com Website＞ https://findingfaithabove.com/ FB Group＞ https://www.facebook.com/groups/christianwomenafterreligion Instagram＞ https://www.instagram.com/findingfaithabove/ _____________________________________________________________

One of the biggest hurdles Ex-LDS ladies have to overcome is figuring out how to teach our kids about God.
When we don’t have an example and are coming to motherhood with so much religious baggage, teaching our kids about Jesus can be overwhelming. We are just trying to figure this all out ourselves, let alone be a guide to one of God’s precious children.
In today’s episode, we get some help with that.
Author and long-time children’s ministry goer is giving us some practical and applicable advice for bringing the fruit of the spirit into our home and into the lives of our kids.
How do you explain God’s love to a child?
Take a listen!

Today we are talking about the essential tools that we need in living out our faith with my longest and one of my closest friends, Vanessa Szanto. Vanessa has been hugely instrumental in my walk with faith. No two faith journeys are the same, but there are tools we can all pack into our toolkits to help us on this adventure of our walk with God.
You are going to hear in Vanessa's voice just how much she loves the Lord and how important sharing that love with others is to her.
I hope this episode moves you, changes you, and helps you pack those tools on your journey with Jesus that can find, live and share faith.

Today, we are talking to a wonderful Christian mama who has a huge heart for helping women who have left the Mormon church, because she did as well. Like me, she had a rocky faith journey after leaving and got swept up in new-age spirituality.
With the power of prayer and the love of Jesus, Courtney Ko now finds herself walking in step with the Jesus of the Bible.
Today's question:
When we judge how does that come back to us and are we capable of radical transformations?

Why do I think it is so important to understand creation, who God is, and where we came from?
He created all things out of nothing, He is the Word, Jesus is God and the devil is no match for Him, we were intentionally knit in our mother's womb, and no matter what, He is sovereign.
Today's Question: What is God's Creation and is there a Preexistence?
