Have you ever been to a women's conference? I've been to a few in my day...and I always love the chance to sneak away for a bit, be around a bunch of women who are seeking the heart of the Lord like I am, and the laughter and tears always brought on by the speakers.
But I have to say that Fresh Grounded Faith has been on of my most favorite conferences EVER. And just in case you haven't been to this one, let me show you the fun Lynne and I had at this conference last spring over in Lima, Ohio!
This is one of our favorite parts: being at our table to meet you! (I won't be able to be at this one, but almost all the WBCL ladies will be there to meet you - so come out and say hi to us!) Lynne will be there and she'd love to meet with you and hug you.
This is a new "season" of FGF, so the set will probably look a little different from this one, but I loved how homey it was. Lamps and tables and chairs and rugs. It really does feel like you're having coffee with the gang! (Lynne shared from the stage this past spring...she's not part of the speaking lineup though!)If you've never heard Jennifer speak, you can do so by listening to this morning's interview with Lynne (and then keep listening to hear Lynne talk to Lisa Whelchel and Michael O'Brien), but let me tell you. She's not preachy and condemning. She's warm, loving, full of grace, full of humor, full of wisdom, and full of a passion to draw women closer to the Lord. You'll laugh, you'll ponder, you'll scribble in your journal, you'll learn, and you might even find a tear in your eye. (All things are the mark of a good speaker!)
This time, Jennifer is traveling with Lisa Whelchel and Michael O'Brien, not Kathy and Carl as you see pictured below, but I just wanted you to see another perk of the conference - FREEBIES!! They do some fun giveaways...and as you can see, it's a time filled with much fun, too.
Another great thing about this conference - it doesn't take your entire weekend. It starts on Friday evening and just takes about 2 1/2 hours that night - and then Saturday morning - and you go home at lunch! You can have the whole rest of the day to be back with your family or sneak away to shop and drink coffee or whatever you want to do! It's the perfect time frame.
You'll find Jennifer, Lisa, and Michael to be incredibly warm, friendly, and real. They conclude the conference with a Q&A time - and you'll have the chance to ask questions to the three of them!
So if you're not sure...can I just urge you to try it? Get a ticket to the conference - take a girlfriend with you if you want - and enjoy the presence of the Lord and the encouragement to go forward boldly in your faith!!
