Have you heard about the She Speaks Conference? You can check out all the details at http://shespeaksconference.com/ . Here's a quick preview:
She Speaks is a conference founded in 2001 by Proverbs 31 Ministries with the intent of: "encouraging and equipping women as they communicate God’s Word through writing, sharing their testimony, leading a Bible study and speaking from the podium". Whether you're a woman with a heart for speaking, writing, or leading in women's ministries...the 2011 She Speaks Conference is for you!
Here’s what’s in store for 2011:
She Speaks: (Speakers’ Track) Whether you feel led to speak in a large arena or lead Bible studies in your church, you will be equipped with the tools you need to effectively share your message, build your platform, and market your ministry.
She Writes: (Writers’ Track) Learn everything from basic writing guidelines to preparing an article or manuscript for submission, and everything in between. In addition, you will have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with some of the top editors, publishers, and literary agents in the Christian market.
She Leads: (Women’s Ministry Track) This track is specifically designed for women’s ministry directors and facilitators. Learn creative ways to reach your community, determine the best curriculum for your group, plan effective special events, and share ideas and network with other directors.
Right now on her blog, Lysa TerKeurst is offering the chance to win two Cecil Murphy She Speaks Scholarships to this year's conference! Check that opportunity out at: http://lysaterkeurst.com/2011/03/she-speaks-scholarship-contest-2011. The value of this scholarship is $595, which includes your conference materials, conference registration, 2 nights at the conference hotel and meals associated with the conference. You can also sign up for Cecil's newsletter for writers at: http://themanbehindthewords.com/. He's a very godly man and his newsletters are full of encouragement. If you're a writer at heart, I'd definitely encourage you to sign up for his free newsletter.
Ever since I learned about the She Speaks Conference last year, it has been my dream to attend! I've felt God tugging on my heart to begin using my gifts of writing and speaking and my love of His Word in some way bigger than I can currently imagine. I really think that the She Speaks Conference will be the first step towards God unveiling His plans for my life in this area! However, unless I win a scholarship or God works in some other BIG way between now and when registration closes, my dream will just have to be put on hold another year. So I'm going to attempt to win every She Speaks scholarship that I see between now and when registration closes. That's why I'm writing this blog entry today...to try to be one of Lysa's lucky winners!
What about you? Does this conference spark your interest as well? Want to go and be my roommate? I encourage you to check out the above websites and join me in trying to be one of Lysa's scholarship winners. Oh, and leave me a comment if you're as excited about the possibility of the She Speaks Conference as I am. I'd love to pray for you to be able to win a scholarship or see God come through for you too!
