Equipped for Truth

 "Whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved."  (2 Peter 2:19)
Lies!  Lies!  Lies!  That is what Satan wants us to believe.  He wants us to believe that we are in bondage to __(you fill in the blank)__  and cannot break free from it.  Then he uses that to make us feel incapacitated to share the gospel, which is one of our main purposes in life. We, as leaders, need to not only recognize the lies that Satan is using in our lives, but need to equip other young women to discern the  lies they are believing. 

If you are wondering how you can equip young ladies (and yourselves) to live in the truth as wise women in a world of lies, then you should seriously consider bringing a group of ladies, college students, and/or high school students to the W conference with Mary Kassian and Heather Payne on the campus of Southern Seminary, November 19-20, will be an equipping tool in how to truly live in the truth and not be disabled by lies.  Check out the website for other information.  I am certainly going and taking as many high school students (girls) that I can from the high school where I teach.  Let's not miss this opportunity!

Shine in a Crooked World

"that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world" (Philippians 2:15, ESV).

The end of last week was a great time of remembering what being a woman in ministry is all about. On Wednesday, I got to be with some of the finest young women who are in our girls ministry class happening this semester at Southern Seminary.

We were blessed to be joined on Thursday by Women's Ministry leaders who came to our campus where we discussed the ways to reach young women with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Chris Adams was our guest. On Friday, the students gave presentations of how one would base a ministry to girls on the Word of God, and carry out Titus 2 ministry to middle and high school girls. It was an incredible week.

I was reminded of this verse in Philippians 2:15. One of the groups based their ministry plan on it. What a great reminder! We are called to lead young women to be blameless and innocent in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation. We are to lead them to shine like stars, holy and pure, pleasing to God!

This is what our W Conference is all about...showing women how to reach the next generation, modeling how to live holy and pure lives, and making a difference in the world we live in. We need your help! Please pray. Please bring women. Please come and help us by being available to reach out to those who come. Find more details about W at http://events.sbts.edu/wconference.

Please pray. We want to change the world!

Simplifying Womanhood in a Complicated World

I have been told many times that I have the gift of simple. It is the gift of taking complicated things and making them simple, or uncomplicated. That is the whole plan with the W conference coming to Southern Seminary the weekend before Thanksgiving.

We at Southern Seminary are pretty pumped about it. Mary Kassian will be teaching her new book, Girls Gone Wise. Heather Payne, formerly with Point of Grace, will be leading us in worship, and we have some awesome breakout leaders and breakouts. All designed to help you simplify your life in this crazy, mixed-up world that we live in. Think of it as the conference for young women that will sort out what the Bible says and how to live it out as a woman in today's culture.

Check out all the info on the provided link. http://events.sbts.edu/wconference. We would love to have you come and bring your friends. Pray that God would do a mighty work before, during, and after this conference. We'd like to see the world changed...one woman at a time.

"Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise" (Ephesians 5:15, ESV).
