From Project Management to Empowering Christian Communicators

In this insightful interview, we have the pleasure of chatting with Christa Hutchins, a project manager in the engineering and construction industry who is also passionate about helping Christian communicators, speakers, writers, and podcasters bring their big ideas to life. Christa shares her journey, the importance of having a plan, and the inspiration behind her book, "Moving Forward: Inspiration for the Go-Getter Jesus Girl." Join us as we delve into Christa's story and discover practical strategies for success.

Finding Purpose in a New Season

As Christa faced the transition into her empty nest years, she sought to discover her new purpose. Despite her background in a male-dominated field, she felt led to volunteer as a small group leader for Proverbs 31 Ministries' online Bible studies. This unexpected opportunity introduced her to authors, writers, and dreamers who struggled with implementing their ideas effectively. Recognizing the value of her project management skills, Christa realized she could help these individuals find clarity and take actionable steps toward their goals.

The Power of Isaiah 43:19:

Embracing her newfound calling, Christa founded "Do a New Thing" based on Isaiah 43:19, which says, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" This verse resonated with her personal and professional journey. As she encountered a career wasteland and toxic work environment, Christa found solace in the promise that God was doing something new. With her business, she now helps other women navigate their own wildernesses of confusion, doubt, and imposter syndrome.

The Importance of Having a Plan

Christa emphasizes the significance of having a plan in order to maintain balance and productivity. Without a plan, she noticed a tendency to either overwork or underwork. Through weekly planning sessions, she ensures she knows what needs to be done and can work efficiently without feeling overwhelmed. This habit provides structure, motivation, and the ability to take deliberate steps toward fulfilling her goals.

Inspiration for the Go-Getter Jesus Girl

Christa's desire to bridge the gap between scripture and practical application led her to write her book, "Moving Forward: Inspiration for the Go-Getter Jesus Girl." Drawing from her workshops and group teachings, the book offers 28 short, inspirational chapters categorized into four sections: dream a dream, find your people, make a plan, and do the thing. By exploring familiar stories and figures from the Bible, Christa encourages readers to uncover strategic lessons and apply them to their daily lives, businesses, and ministries.

Empowerment and Inspiration for Christian Communicators

Christa Hutchins exemplifies the power of embracing new seasons and using one's skills to serve others. She empowers Christian communicators to transform their big ideas into successful ministries and businesses through her project management expertise and passion for the Bible. By sharing her story and writing her book, Christa inspires readers to find practical applications of scripture in their personal, professional, and ministry lives. Her dedication to making a difference is a shining example for all aspiring leaders to follow.
