Saturday

On Saturday, 4 women spoke sharing scripture and testimony of its truth:

First up: Angela Thomas an author and speaker.  She was great, she spoke on "running the race" (as the Christian life is described in Philippians) and persevering to the end... as in not quiting...  This is how I'm applying what she taught: when we need rest from this world we rest "in Christ", and we don't quit Christ.

Next: Lysa Tyerkhurst  also an author and speaker, spoke on the 4 different ways of dealing with anger: exploding, exploding while shaming self, stuffing, and stuffing to build retaliation. She gives testimony of how the Holy Spirit can come in and help us in those seconds before we do one of these things and that is a choice we make in asking Him for help.

Third up, Candace Cameron Bure, the actress who played DJ Tanner in Full House, author, & speaker!  Wow! She was great and she hit it home, I know that not one woman walked out of that place knowing that she needed to change something in her marriage.  She talked about partnering with the Holy Spirit in honoring our husbands! Treating them the way God intends us to treat them... whether they deserve it or not. The degree that we honor our husbands is the degree to which we honor God.  ... and I know that this is impossible without the help of God. Completely partnering with Him, allowing Him to work through us!!

Lastly, Kim & Krickett Carpenter spoke, they are the true story behind the movie "The Vow" with Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams.  Here's a video of them:
