Reflections on Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference

“The best part of this conference was the word on being beloved! The Spirit moved throughout!!” – BELOVED Women’s Conference Attendee

There’s no way to fully describe how God showed up at Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference sponsored by Nyack College, but the smiles and hugs in the pictures speak volumes!

There was laughter, tears, prayers and a wonderful time of fellowship!

God’s BELOVED daughters traveled from Upstate, Yonkers, Long Island, Brooklyn and the surrounding area to be part of this special gathering.

What a delightful surprise that Open Bible Church International was decorated for a wedding taking place later that day! The decorations were perfect for our BELOVED conference.

Here’s a short clip from the conference:

I’m so grateful to our wonderful Presenting Sponsor Nyack College for their generous support of Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference and their commitment to preparing men and women to “take the whole Gospel to the whole world.”

Congratulations to Valeria on winning the partial scholarship to Nyack College! The ladies cheered and Valeria burst into tears when her name was announced. What a blessing for all of us to witness that God moment!

Valeria wasn’t even supposed to be at the conference. She was a last-minute replacement, but God already knew she would be joining us.  After winning the scholarship, she testified to how God has been drawing her to study at Nyack.

We’re so excited to see how God will continue equipping Valeria for all He’s called her to do.

Here’s a short video clip from Valeria:

It’s a blessing to be able to give away great prizes to my guests.

I’m so grateful to my friends at Our Daily Bread for the lovely resources they offered as prizes to the ladies.

And many thanks to my friends at TBN NY for the lovely books they offered as prizes to the ladies.

What a joy and privilege to get to be among God’s BELOVED daughters!

“The best part of this conference was the message, fellowship and sharing.” – BELOVED Women’s Conference Attendee

It’s a little surreal that my third women’s conference is now in the books. What a blessed time we had at Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference! God is Good!

I couldn’t host these events without the help of my family, volunteers and all those who were praying and helping to spread the word about this inspiring conference.

Thanks again for all your prayers and encouragement. I’m looking forward to continuing to share faith-fueling and hope-igniting messages with more groups. To learn more about inviting me to speak at your church, gathering or event, click here.

Reflections on a Few Summer Surprises

The Lord saw it fit to surprise me this summer in a few ways including these opportunities (pictured above) to teach and speak.
 
I’m grateful for every opportunity I get to encourage and inspire groups as they walk by faith and live their God-given dreams!
 
It was a blessing to teach a summer class at the New York School of the Bible in June based on one of my books and then to teach a Life Skills class at The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center in July based on another one of my books. It was also a delight to share testimonies at a local church and lead Chapel at The Bowery Mission’s Tribeca site.

 

God is so Good!

 

None of these speaking and teaching opportunities were on my calendar at the beginning of the year, but God already had them planned.

 

We just need to be available and willing. God knows what’s on the other side of our Yes!

 

I’m looking forward to continuing to share messages of hope with more groups.
 
Local Ladies, I’d love to encourage you at Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference! You can register here.
 
I’d also be delighted to share an uplifting Bible-based message at your church, school, conference, chapel service, retreat or outreach event. Your group will be inspired and filled with hope. Learn more here.
 
Thanks for your continued prayers and support! Blessings!

Reflections on Teaching at The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center

“The Holy Spirit pours out of you! Not only when you’re praying, but as you’re speaking.” – Resident at The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center

What an honor to get to teach a Life Skills class for my friends at The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center!  It was a delight to get to teach a chapter from my latest book, By Faith: Adventures and Reflections on Walking with God Here and Abroad.    

The women were so gracious and receptive to what I was sharing.

The lady quoted above went on to say that normally she writes down one confirmation she gets from each speaker, but this time she couldn’t because there were too many to write down. Glory to God!

The ladies asked great questions and shared such kind feedback.

I felt so welcomed there, as usual. From the moment I arrived to right before I left, the ladies had such sweet things to say.

“I’m reading your book,” exclaimed one of the young ladies I bumped into while waiting to enter the building.  She went on to share that she had been preparing to interview for an internship and was worried that she wasn’t going to get the position. That’s when their Chaplain gave her a copy of Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible. “It wasn’t a coincidence. I got the internship!” she said.

I’m so touched that my book encouraged her faith at just the right time.

It’s always a pleasure to inspire my friends at The Bowery. And guess what? I leave uplifted as well!

As we are a blessing to others, we also get blessed. God is Good!

I find it interesting that God has me teaching this summer and based on two of my books. That’s been a surprise to me, but not to God!

There’s a beauty in embracing the mystery and following God’s lead.

I look forward to sharing hope and encouragement with more and more groups.

I’d be delighted to encourage and empower your group as they walk by faith and live their God-given dreams. Your group will be inspired and uplifted. To learn more about inviting me to your church, school, chapel, conference, retreat or outreach event, click here

What’s Your Story?

After I felt the Lord ask me to lay down my journalism career, my writing went into hiding for y-e-a-r-s. But for some reason, I couldn’t shake the feeling that one day God would ask me to pick up my pen and write for His glory.

I’m in awe as I look at Books 1 – 4 displayed with my flyer for Abounding Faith’s third Women’s Conference. This pic was taken in my classroom where I’m teaching Abounding Faith: Believing God for the Impossible, a summer class for women at the New York School of the Bible based on my book Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible!.

I’m so touched that the Abounding Faith devotional is inspiring my students  here in NYC, Crossing Your Jordan River is encouraging a reader who just opened a transitional home for women in Chattanooga, TN, By Faith has been endorsed by the President of Nyack College and others and Waiting on God Well continues to inspire people years after its release.

All of this helps to encourage me as I work on Book 5!  God is Good!

What a privilege it is to write uplifting books that encourage readers as they walk by faith and live their God-given dreams! It’s a joy and honor to write faith-filled books that help to bring hope to hurting hearts and that inspire Pastors, Pastors’ wives, ministry leaders and new believers.

As I meet my readers and others, I keep coming across people who say they feel called to write a book.

It’s got me wondering …

What’s your story?

If you’re dreaming of honoring God through writing a book, I’d be delighted to help you navigate the process of going from idea to book. There are many steps along the path, which I’m now traveling for the fifth time.

If you have burning questions about your book project, I’d be happy to hop on a 1-hour strategy call to help you bring your book to life. You can learn more about my Book Writing Consulting and Coaching sessions here.

Sometimes all you need is a little prayerful coaching and encouragement from someone who is experienced and has traversed similar roads.

Blessings to you on your book writing journey, and thanks for being part of my faith journey!

Abounding Faith Class in Full Swing at the New York School of the Bible

What an honor it was to teach my very first Abounding Faith: Believing God for the Impossible class at the New York School of the Bible (NYSB)!

There was a sweet spirit among the lovely ladies who attended the first class this past Saturday.

I think my late Senior Pastor would be proud to know that I’m teaching at the same Bible school he suggested I attend a few years ago.

What a joy to get to encourage others in their faith by sharing some of the lessons I learned while writing my second book Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible! (Available on Amazon).

Local Ladies, there’s still time to sign up for the remaining three classes. Come and be encouraged in your faith! You can register today.

Here’s a few pics of me in teacher mode. God is Good!

God continues to surprise me in delightful ways. I hope you’re having a wonderful unofficial start to your summer as well. Blessings!
