• Adrianna Anderson - She Prays: The Joy of Spending Time with Jesus (General/Ministry Leadership)

  Prayer is the most important call in the life of a Christian woman. It is the lifeline to our Heavenly Father who desires to be in a close relationship with us. Let's look together at what God's Word says about prayer and discuss ways to take the "negative stigma" and "dread" out of how to pray by learning to experience the joy of spending time with Jesus. 

• Adrianna Anderson - Real Talk: Unmasking Mental Health Issues Facing Women Today (Personal Equipping)

  Mental health issues are rising at alarming rates in the church! We live in unprecedented times, face insurmountable pressure and uncertainty is all around us. In the midst of a changing world, there is an epidemic of mental health issues affecting everyone. In this session, we will use God's Word as our guide to identifying resources and tools that will help equip you as a leader to create an open and safe environment where women can be encouraged to break the silence, learn how to take off the masks they wear to hide the pain they are facing and to expose the lies and stigmas that keep them in mental bondage.

• Adrianna Anderson - Apologetics for Women Today: How to Lovingly Defend Your Faith (Biblical Literacy)

  Christian women of this generation must navigate through a myriad of landmines. We live in an explosive culture where anything goes and where wrong is right and right is wrong. This mindset has permeated our society and repeatedly denies the existence of God, morality, values, family, and gender identity while continuing to question the validity of Christianity. It’s time to defend our faith! This session will look at biblical ways to lovingly and confidently apply the practical knowledge of apologetics to remove roadblocks that hinder conversations with unbelievers in the world today, and to be able to give a reason for the hope that lies within us (1 Peter 3:15).
