SO THEN, JUST AS YOU RECEIVED CHRIST JESUS AS LORD, CONTINUE TO LIVE YOUR LIVES IN HIM, ROOTED AND BUILT UP IN HIM, STRENGTHENED IN THE FAITH AS YOU WERE TAUGHT, AND OVERFLOWING WITH THANKFULNESS. COLOSSIANS 2:6-7

We are still basking in the glow of our inaugural Beautifully Rooted Women's Conference! It was an inspiring and empowering event that brought together women from all walks of life.

The energy in the room was palpable as we listened to the stories and insights of our dynamic speakers, Mary Shannon, Tiffany Johnson, Michelle Strong, and Jennifer Caraccio. Their powerful testimonies left us deeply moved and inspired.

Throughout the conference, we had the opportunity to connect with other women who shared our love of Jesus. These connections were truly special, and we are grateful for the new friendships we made.

Overall, the Beautifully Rooted Women's Conference was a resounding success. We are so grateful to everyone who attended or helped make this event a reality. We're already looking forward to next year!

SPEAKERS

Mary Shannon

Mary Shannon is a powerful Bible teacher and author, whose great love for Jesus and for scripture inspires her audience to get their face in the Book! Her background is rich with spiritual upbringing rooted solidly in the Bible. But as a self-professed recovering perfectionist, for much of her Christian life she was bound by a performance-based theology - God’s affection and approval were contingent on toeing the line of legalism. [Measuring up!] 

 

Most comfortable in a ball cap and ripped jeans, Shannon is a mother of two adult children, an experienced school teacher, and a gifted storyteller with a sassy sense of humor and a fresh transparency about the messiness of life. It’s a recipe that provides her with fresh insight and ample illustrations that can make you laugh and cry as she brings the Bible to life for the ordinary person.

Tiffany has been in a speaking and training role for over a decade. She and her husband James have three young children and reside in Charlotte, N.C.. They recently launched Be An Overcomer Ministries aimed at helping others find hope and strength in challenging circumstances.
