Breakout Sessions
Abide and Grow: Friendship in the Garden of God
Sara Jones
This session explores how Jesus shapes, grows, and weaves our friendships together for His glory and our good. Through shared testimony and guided reflection, we’ll explore how God intentionally plants friendship into our faith journeys. Together, we’ll reflect on the ways He forms relationships that refine us, support us in all seasons, and point us back to Him.
Beyond Busy: Making Room for Intentional Friendship
Honey Wiggs
Many women long for deeper friendships but aren’t sure where to begin, especially in a world full of busyness and distractions. This breakout offers space to reflect on how overloaded schedules or past hurts may be blocking meaningful connection. You’ll pause, examine what’s crowding out relationships, and leave encouraged and equipped to pursue deeper, life-giving friendships, even in a busy season.
Different by Design: Friendship That Thrives Across Personalities
CJ Crenshaw
God created each of us wonderfully unique, yet those differences can stretch even the best friendships. In this session, we’ll explore how to love well across different personalities, priorities, and parenting or lifestyle choices. Learn practical tools to build grace-filled, resilient friendships that honor God and strengthen the women He’s placed in your life.
Finding Your Tribe: Why One Best Friend Won’t Cut It
Jessica Mathisen
In a world riddled with isolation and loneliness, we all long for, and desperately need, community. But how do we find it? How can we find our tribe in the midst of full and often changing adult lives? In this session, you'll learn about God's desires for us in friendship and what it looks like to find your tribe among the people He's placed in your life.
Friends Help Us Heal: A Thriver’s Story After Abuse
Rossanna dos Santos
Rossana shares her testimony post partner abuse of survival, faith, and empowerment which will focus on the importance of friendships fostered through church community and the women that did not give up on her. The friendships cultivated throughout her healing journey were one of the main ingredients Jesus used to shine light in the darkness.
Healing Relationships Through Prayer and God’s Word
Lynda Poole
Discover how to partner with God through prayer and His Word to intercede for those you love, inviting His healing, freedom, and restoration into their lives. Learn practical ways to stand in the gap, pray with authority, and trust God to mend broken places, renew relationships, and draw your loved ones back to Him and to those who care for them.
How to Be a Friend, Keep a Friend: The “Art” of Forgiveness
Ginger Anderson
Come and see how to obtain and share peace as you learn not only how to forgive, but maybe even harder, how to ask forgiveness. See how friendships, marriages, and working relationships can be healed as we obey Jesus’ commandment to “Just do it.”
In the Waiting of Restoration
Adelle Graham
Join Adelle as she discusses navigating the unique journey beyond brokenness and relational betrayal. She’ll provide practical tools to help you identify the blind spots and false walls that hinder connection so you can be empowered to experience the deep, thriving relationships God intends for you.
