If you are visiting my blog from Lysa’s site, then Welcome! I hope that we will not only become bloggy friends, but, hopefully, we will be able to meet in person at She Speaks.
If you are going to She Speaks, I would like to pose a question, well, a couple of them, actually. One, have you ever been before, and two, what led you to feel that you should go? Okay, I actually have another one. Could you tell a little about how you feel the Lord is leading you right now in this particular aspect of your life, i.e., your purpose and calling with regards to speaking and/or writing?
Thank you in advance for sharing, and I look forward to hearing your stories.

Well lets see. I have been a few times. My calling and purpose is that I am a minister who has been called to speak. My purpose is to go back into the belly of the whale and help set captives free. I return to the conference to stay conected to other woman who hunger to speak with wisdom and have learned that my ministry flows from relationships and through those I met at P31 I have found my way to running my race that has been set out before me.

Hello,
This is my first year at She Speaks. My story is that in April God told me he would move me into His purpose for my life and it would be a new direction. Then He told me to start a blog. A few weeks later people started suggesting that I publish the stuff! After that He led me to put my name on the She Speaks waiting list, He then miraculously got me in!!
I know I am supposed to write, to encourage women on this journey. But, beyond blogging I don’t yet have a clear vision. I believe that I will begin to see more clearly after the conf.
Hope to meet you there!

This is my first year going. I’ve wanted to go for several years, but never got up the courage. Now I’m having doubts as to whether I really heard God right I guess I’ll see after the conference 😀

Ok Dawn, Found out we’re in the same speaker evaluation group (thanks for the email) super excited that I will at least meet one of you bloggers. Are you coming to the blogger social by the way on Friday before the conference begins?? I am all signed up and super duper pepped!
Here are the answers to your questions: I’ll try not to write a book!
One, have you ever been before, and two, what led you to feel that you should go?
Well, 1st this is my 1st year. I have wanted to attend a speaker’s conference for MANY years, but haven’t had the opportunity. This one is divinely inspired I know. You can read more about that on my blog here: http://lifefrommylaptop.com/2008/02/01/we-think-its-a-god-thing/
Could you tell a little about how you feel the Lord is leading you right now in this particular aspect of your life, i.e., your purpose and calling with regards to speaking and/or writing?
This is my calling, I have a ministry to girls and their moms and already speak and write full time: http://beautybydesignonline.com
