The Carla Broadnax (CB) Connection Mentoring Minis"trees, which is under the umbrella of Iron Sharpening Our Sisters Partners in Ministry, was divinely inspired and developed based on my passion, to mentor, encourage, equip and empower women in order for them to connect, stay connected and/or reconnect to the vine in pursuit of their fruitful purpose, in the spirit of iron sharpening iron, regardless of their ethnicity, location, background or denomination.
After a divine "pruning" health scare, which accelerated my retirement as a supervisory administrator with the New York State Education Department 8 1/2 years ago after 31 years of dedicated service, I prayerfully sought the Lord for a 21st century global home-based way for His glory, to go beyond the walls, yet still touch women's lives to gloriously bear fruit without compromising my health and my quality time with my Boaz.
Hence, after a yearlong post-retirement journey of flying solo with just me and the Lord, He answered my prayers and showed me unmerited favor by blessing me with the vision eight years ago and subsequently The CB Connection Mentoring Minis"trees", a web-empowered home based mentoring ministry was birthed in me to plant fruit bearing seeds of hope that God keeps His promises because He is the vine and we are the branches.
During my journey, I met beautiful powerful fruit-bearing women en route to their destiny fulfilling their purpose dealing with haters, destiny blockers as well as those that were discouraged because they were not bearing fruit to their fullest potential who wanted to connect with other like-minded women as sources of inspiration to operate under their God-given anointing.
I also met women who were not blooming where they were planted, those that were in a valley of dry bones that were spiritually dying as well as those like the infamous fig tree Jesus cursed that was not bearing any fruit as well as women who were seeking spiritual guidance due to unfortunate circumstances they had been subjected to as well as dealing with health, family, work and/or personal issues.
Subsequently, asking God to use me as His humble and willing vessel, I truly believe that my purpose, as we journey together, is to mentor, support and help others to realize their divine purpose to bear fruit in the Kingdom of God for His glory.
