Speaker: Christina Vaupel
At 51, Christina Vaupel has spent decades saying yes to God and building a life defined by faith, family, and purpose. A former middle school teacher and children’s ministry director, she spent more than 20 years pouring into young hearts and minds through classrooms, church ministry, and homeschooling her three children.
Today, Christina works from her home in Josephine, Texas, writing a book and coaching families alongside her husband. Together, they help others discover their God-given callings and pursue greater purpose in leadership, life, and finances.
Like Esther, Christina believes we are each placed exactly where we are “for such a time as this.” She and her family are currently living that out by opening their home to a family in transition while they rebuild.
As she raises a 22-year-old entrepreneur, a 21-year-old Airborne Ranger, and a 16-year-old future missionary, Christina is also stepping into a new season of building income and impact through her coaching work. Her story is a beautiful reminder that ordinary obedience, offered at the right moment, can change everything.
