Start Here: 5 Simple Steps to Begin Your Work-from-Home Journey as a Christian Mom
Are you feeling called to work from home—but overwhelmed by all the options?
You want to be present with your children.
You want to honor your role as a wife and mother.
And yes—you also want to contribute financially to your family.
But where do you start?
If you’ve ever searched “Christian jobs from home” or considered launching a business, you already know: the options can feel endless—and confusing.
That’s exactly why I created the Christian Work-from-Home Mom Quick Start Guide.
In this post, I’m walking you through the 5 simple, faith-filled steps that will help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
1. Discover Your Uniqueness
The first step isn’t filling out job applications or choosing a business idea.
It’s taking time to reflect on how God uniquely created you.
Ask yourself:
- What are my natural strengths and skills?
- What do I enjoy doing?
- What season of life am I in?
- What are my spiritual gifts?
When your work-from-home path flows from who you are, it becomes life-giving—not draining. That’s why I always say: start with your God-given design, not someone else’s success story.
2. Take the Work-from-Home Personality Quiz
Inside the Quick Start Guide, you’ll find a short quiz that matches you with one of five Christian work-from-home personality types:
- Creative Chloe
- Digital Deborah
- Freelance Felicity
- Remote Rebecca
- Service Sarah
Each type includes a description of your strengths and real work-from-home options that align with your personality.
This quiz gives you a solid starting point—not a box to stay in, but a path to explore.
3. Choose a Path That Fits Your Season
Not every opportunity is the right fit for you right now—and that’s okay.
Once you understand your type, the next step is choosing a work-from-home path that supports your current season of motherhood.
Ask yourself:
- How much time do I realistically have?
- Do I need flexibility or structure?
- Would I rather serve people directly or work quietly behind the scenes?
When your work aligns with your life, you’re more likely to stick with it—and thrive.
4. Create Time Without Sacrificing Family
You don’t need 40 hours a week to make a meaningful impact.
The guide helps you think creatively about your schedule—whether you work during nap time, early mornings, or a couple evenings a week.
The goal isn’t to squeeze in more. It’s to be intentional with the time you do have, so you can work in peace without compromising your values or your relationships.
5. Take a Step of Faith
Once you have clarity on your type, your path, and your time—it’s time to act.
Maybe that looks like researching a job, applying for a freelance gig, or booking a free coaching call to talk through your ideas.
You don’t need to have it all figured out.
Just take the next faithful step and trust God with the journey.
