I love telling other women how one September day back in 2012 I put my big girl pants on and finally went to a faith-based “blogging” conference. I’d seen several promoted online but I was always afraid to go.
Would they like me? Am I “big” enough? What if they don’t think I’m cool? What if I wear the wrong thing?
These thoughts plagued my mind. But I kept sensing a leading to go and for some reason, I felt deep in my heart that this one would be different.
And it was different. Turns out it wasn’t a blogging conference at all. . .
Read more of my story over on The Influence Network blog where you’ll discover an amazing community of women who are waiting to meet YOU!
If you are a blogger and you want to link up with us as we share stories of beautiful community, join in this week. Or you can simply read and be encouraged by story after story of women who found connection at The Influence Conference.
This year I have the privilege of going to the conference again, for the third year, serving as community leader and teaching a workshop on publishing. I am thrilled to be getting more and more involved with these amazing creative women. They inspire me and encourage me deeply.
Are you a woman who desires to grow deeply with the Lord while using your creative gifts to make much of him? Then what are you waiting for? Join us in The Influence Network and at the conference in September!
I’m stopping in from the Influence link-up and I just wanted to say that I love the name of your blog and all that it stands for. Motherhood has taught me so much about grace, especially the importance of extending grace toward other moms. I think I’m going to enjoy looking around your site. Thanks!
