It started with a century-old letter from her great-great-grandmother that challenged her to think more purposefully about what kind of spiritual legacy she was building for her children and grandchildren. The letter also eventually led to a beautiful devotional book about spiritual legacy, “Heirloom: Living a Legacy of Faith.” Kathy Howard is a treasure hunter, searching for cherished stories of faith that still impact hearts.
How do we turn panic into praise? Becky Harling understands what it’s like to feel stuck and what it takes to overcome those obstacles. As a survivor of both breast cancer and childhood sexual abuse, praise was the key that unlocked kingdom purpose in her life. Now, the author of 11 books and Bible studies and certified life coach with the John Maxwell Team, she helps those looking to move beyond their personal obstacles to live life intentionally with purpose and passion.
How can women embrace their purpose today? As a first-generation follower of Christ, Liz DeFrain loves helping women experience everything God desires for them. She is an ordained minister and the Women’s Director for the PennDel Network of the A/G.
Why is friendship at times so complicated? Andi Andrew is here today to help us do away with the drama and create authentic connection. Andi is the author of She Is Free, Fake or Follower, and her newest book, Friendship–It's Complicated. She is also the founding Pastor of Liberty Church, a multisite church she pioneered with her husband Paul in 2010. She is the founder of She is Free, a movement that exists to engage and equip women to encounter God and expand the Kingdom in their spheres of influence.
Can we really find hope after heartache? Kellie Haddock is a singer, songwriter, wife and mom. A former widow, Kellie has lived through tragedy and found hope and joy on the other side. Her music draws from real-life stories of beauty, heartache, hope and the celebration of life and reminds us that no matter what life brings, love will have the last word and hope is possible.

Few people can help us shift into the new like Dr. Naomi Dowdy. If there is one word to describe her, it’s “pioneer.” She started as a missionary in the Marshall Islands and became the first woman senior pastor of a Singapore church, back when women pastors (of any kind) were unheard of. She has founded several organizations of global impact, and she is still pioneering and mentoring leaders today.
