Purpose & Calling
Read full descriptionHide full description
You were created for more. And somewhere deep inside, you know it. The Purpose & Calling App was built for the Christian woman who feels the stirring — the pull toward something greater that she cannot fully explain but cannot ignore. Whether you are just beginning to sense God’s call on your life, actively walking it out, or somewhere in the middle wondering what comes next, this app was created with you in mind. WHAT YOU WILL FIND INSIDE: ► The Called to Commissioned Pathway™ A four-stage framework — The Called, The Aligned, The Visionary, and The Remnant — designed to help you identify exactly where you are in your purpose journey and what your next faithful step looks like. The Purpose Journey Assessment™ A free assessment that identifies your current stage so you stop guessing and start moving with clarity and confidence. Teachings, Devotionals & Bible Studies Faith-rooted content curated specifically for women navigating purpose, calling, leadership, and spiritual growth. Not generic. Not surface level. Designed for the woman who is serious about what God has placed in her heart. Community Connect with Lilies Among Thorns Society — a community of Christian women of purpose who know they are called and need a space to be seen, strengthened, and equipped together. Because you were not meant to do this alone. Mentoring Access Connect with SheRises Mentoring Circle™ for deeper access, live mentoring sessions, and a circle of women serious about walking out their assignment. Prayer A dedicated space to bring your requests, your questions, and your heart. Come as you are. THIS APP IS FOR YOU IF: You feel called but unclear about your next step You are in a season of waiting and need encouragement to keep going You sense God has more for you but do not know what to do next You are building something God placed in your heart and need support You want community with women who understand the weight of assignment You are a Christian woman aged 30–60 navigating purpose, faith, and calling You are simply exploring and want a faith-filled space that meets you where you are Created by Tereciah V. Smithen-Quintana, mentor and founder of LifeSpark Ministries LLC, this app is a guided companion for your formation season. It is not a content dump. It is a space built with intention, warmth, and a deep desire to see you actually do what God placed in your heart. Download free. Come as you are. Your next step is waiting.
