Speaking Topics
Audacious Faith: Trusting God When It Doesn’t Make Sense
When we want to grow deeper in our faith, we must walk with God, choosing to trust Him. But what does that mean in practical terms? Together, we’ll explore:
- What it looks like to walk with God in our everyday, busy lives
- Spiritual practices that keep us in step with God
- Choosing trust in the face of uncertainty and anxiety
When we want to grow deeper in our faith, we must walk with God, choosing bold and gutsy faith even when we feel uncertain, unseen or unqualified. Through biblical stories and real-life encouragement, you’ll be prepared to take your next brave step with Jesus.
Awkward & Anointed: What Women in the Bible Teach Us About Faith
Sometimes following Jesus feels awkward. We wrestle with our past, speak up in uncomfortable moments, or step out in faith when we’re unsure of the outcome. But what if these very moments are signs that we are anointed—called and empowered—by God?
In this workshop, we’ll explore the lives of women who encountered Jesus in deeply personal and culture-defying ways. Despite awkward circumstances and social labels, these women show us what it means to live with:
- Kindness that speaks truth
- Joy that overflows
- A story that matters
- Faith that risks everything
Through teaching, reflection, and practical application, participants will be encouraged to embrace the messy, awkward places of faith—where transformation happens, purpose is born, and God moves powerfully.
Practical Theology for the Modern Woman
What is theology and why does it matter to women? Drawing from a rich biblical tradition of women engaging in theology, Sarah will empower and equip you with the tools you need to develop a deeper understanding of faith. Together we will explore:
- How each of us is already a theologian
- Jesus’ invitation to women to develop a deeper theology
- The benefits of engaging in theology
- Practical ways we can develop our own theology
Enjoy the Joy: Secrets of the Happy Mama’s Soul
Motherhood doesn’t have to be all misery and drudgery, there can be magic (even in the mundane!) Happiness, joy, and delight are spiritual practices that can help us grow closer to God. Together we will explore some keys to a happy soul, including:
- Balancing rest and responsibility
- Avoiding the comparison trap
- Developing healthier mindsets
Emmanuel, God With Us: Why Jesus’s Body Matters
At Christmas, we celebrate Jesus’s birth, but what does it mean that God came to us in a body? This talk explores the implications of the Incarnation for our everyday lives. Through Scripture, reflection, and relatable stories, we’ll discover how Jesus’s embodied presence affirms our own experiences as women, mothers, and image-bearers, and how His humanity invites us into deeper intimacy with a God who truly understands us. Together we’ll learn that:
- The Incarnation affirms the goodness of our physical bodies.
- The Incarnation dignifies our ordinary, everyday moments.
- Jesus’s humanity means He understands us fully.
- The body of Christ still matters—through us.
Belonging in the Kingdom of God
For those of us who feel like we never quite fit in, for those of us who are lonely, for those of us who feel “other,” take heart! This message is for you. Drawing from the story of the woman at the well, and Sarah’s own experience as a missionary kid, we will:
- Identify the labels we bear
- Explore our identity in Christ
- Discuss how we can love others across social boundaries
Intentional Parenting
How do we live out our faith as parents? Steering our kids in the direction of our values is so important to cultivating the kind of family we long for. In this practical workshop, each participant will:
- Identify their family’s top five core values
- Create a family manifesto
- Brainstorm ways their family can live out those values
Mommy, Interrupted
Motherhood is filled with constant interruptions! How can we respond with grace and still complete our tasks? Together, we will learn how to:
- Set healthy boundaries around your time
- Deal with interruptions in a loving way
- Model your perspective of time on the life of Jesus
Parenting with Presence, Productivity, and Peace
It’s time to ditch the overwhelm! Crawl into bed at night, knowing that you found enough time for what was important. Drawing from experience, research, and biblical principles, Sarah will show you how to:
- Organize and prioritize your time to get things done
- Create systems and routines that work for your lifestyle
- Be mindful and present in the time you spend with others
