Christian Discipleship Coaching for Women

Our Journey at Ebenezer Acres
Hi, I'm Jodi — a disciple of Jesus Christ, a passionate disciple-maker of Christ-seeking women, and a certified Bible-based, Christ-centered, Spirit-led Christian Discipleship Coach. I'm also a pastor's wife, entrepreneur, animal lover, "quiet achiever," and film producer by trade.
My husband and I live on a five-acre hobby farm we call Ebenezer Acres, because "thus far the Lord has helped us" (1 Samuel 7:12). We strive to keep our eyes fixed on Him as we steward this land for His purposes. In 2022, the Lord called us to plant a church in Hugo, MN. We purchased Ebenezer Acres as a ministry property where we could host worship events and missionaries who need a place to stay. Today, our home transforms into Faith Fellowship Church every Sunday morning at 10am, where our living room becomes our sanctuary, and I host women's events as part of the Kingdom Women Coaching & Collective, equipping Christian women in discipleship and Kingdom calling.
Mentoring and Discipleship of Christian Women
Before planting our church, my husband founded and led Celebrate Recovery as part of the Transformation Ministry at Roseville Baptist Church for more than seven years. When we married in 2020, I launched a women's Codependency Recovery Group, where I had the privilege of sponsoring and discipling women walking through hurts, habits, and hangups that hindered their ability to hear the voice of God.
With over twelve years of Biblical-based recovery myself, I continue to sponsor women working through the 12-steps of AA, guiding them toward healing, transformation, and spiritual growth.
My Calling to Christian Coaching
The Lord first called me to coaching at age 23 — long before I understood the shape it would take. Years later, I hired my first coach and launched my adventure company, PLAY it Forward Adventures, helping others move forward in courage and calling.
I do not have children of my own, yet God has unmistakably called me to spiritual motherhood for girls and women of all ages. His words in Isaiah 54:1 pierced my heart early in my discipleship journey:
“Sing, O barren one, you who did not bear; break forth into singing and cry aloud, you who have not been in labor! For the children of the desolate one will be more than the children of her who is married, says the Lord.”
I received that promise personally — not as loss, but as commissioning. For more than 10 years, I’ve nurtured, discipled, sponsored, and mentored women in the ways of Jesus. I am confident in my Kingdom calling to be a spiritual mother or sister to those who need one.
At age 43, I became a certified Christian Discipleship Coach, and in 2024, I launched Kingdom Women Coaching & Collective — a ministry and coaching community built to help women hear God’s voice, honor biblical boundaries, steward their lives well, and walk boldly in their Kingdom calling.
Coaching Services & Mission
Through Kingdom Women Coaching & Collective, I help Christian women become disciples who make disciples, so they can confidently carry out the Great Commission and fulfill their Kingdom calling:
"Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)
Welcome, Sister, to Kingdom Women Coaching & Collective!
How may I help you?
Love,
Jodi
