One step of Faith Changed My Life

 One Step of Faith That Changed It All

One step of Faith Changed My Life 

In 2015, I took one small step—a step that didn’t make sense on paper, but made perfect sense in my spirit. I said yes to writing my first book. I didn’t know then that this “yes” would change my entire life.

That book led to the launch of my YouTube channel.
That channel led to masterclasses.
Those classes opened the door to even more content and creativity.
And by 2018, those seeds birthed what is now known as 
The Butterfly Academy Mentorship Program.

And that was just the beginning.

Let me pause right here and say this — we learned how to build by literallybuilding our church from the inside out, from the ground up, back in 2010. That experience taught us how to build not just a ministry, but how to build with strategy, structure, and sustainability.

From planting our church to helping launch other nonprofit ministries, God was preparing us. What we didn’t know then was that everything we were learning in ministry, we’d eventually use in the marketplace.

Sis — we’re doing ministry outside the four walls of the church now. And yes, we’re making a profit while also creating opportunities for others to earn income too — and in turn, those profits flow right back into the Kingdom and support the church.

If this is sounding a little unfamiliar or confusing, don’t worry — we actually teach all of this in our Lions Den Community (shameless plug, but it’s the truth!).  

Back to the journey 

The books and YouTube presence opened doors into local schools. What started as a faith move soon became a movement. Seeing the impact, my husband and I launched HE Services LLC—and let me be honest, this wasn’t happening inside the walls of the church… but it was the foundation we learned in the church that taught us how to build from the ground up. 

Was it easy? Absolutely not.
Was it worth it? More than you could imagine.

Because every single step of faith stretched us. It grew us. It changed our lives.  I must say when I started my business it changed my life.  

Now listen… my husband and I are both working our business FULL TIME! 🙌🏾 We’re running 6 departments (aka 6 different businesses), we’ve got a whole team we employ, and we’re walking boldly in our purpose. And guess what? It all started with one decision — one moment where we chose to believe in the power of the vision God gave us.

And here’s the good news: YOU can do the same.

That’s why my husband and I are inviting you to join us for the Start-Up Business Boot-camp on April 26th at New Destiny Church.

We’re going to break down exactly how to:

  1. Professionalize your business – so people take you seriously.

  2. Legalize your business – so you’re protected and positioned to grow.

  3. Maximize your business – so you’re not just running a hustle, but building a brand.

We’ll even walk you through how to obtain your LLC (state fees not included)—live and in person!

If you’ve been sitting on an idea…
If you’ve been wondering where to start…
If you know you’re meant for more…

Then this is your moment. Your one step of faith could unlock a future you never imagined.

Register now and meet us there—your business breakthrough is waiting.

Lastly, my sister in Christ… if you’re thinking about it and second-guessing yourself — please stop. You are just ONE step away from changing your whole life.

If you’ve been on this email blog for a while (especially over a year), then you already know our story. You’ve watched the journey. And you know my husband and I don’t just talk it — we live it. We have the tools, the experience, and the heart to show you exactly how to do this.

So sis, come stand on our shoulders on April 26th at 10AM and finally start that business. The time is now. Let’s build together.

Only 7 spots left 

Your sister in Christ, Love & Prosperity, 

Tonya Harden
