She Influences...

“…We have put our hope in the living God. He is the Savior of all people. Most of all he is the Savior of those who believe. Command those things. Teach them. Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young. Set an example for the believers in what you say and in how you live. Also set an example in how you love and in what you believe. Show the believers how to be pure. Until I come, spend your time reading Scripture out loud to one another. Spend your time preaching and teaching. Don't fail to use the gift the Holy Spirit gave you. He gave it to you through a message from God. It was given when the elders placed their hands on you.” 1Timothy 4:10-14 (NIRV)

Are you a young woman between the ages of 12 and 17?

Do you have a desire to impact your generation and future generations for Christ through speaking, writing, or simply by setting an example for those God places within your sphere of influence?

Have you made the bold decision to be a part of a generation that rises up for the Kingdom?

If these questions speak directly to your heart, the Next Generation track of our annual She Speaks Conference was designed especially for you. We know that it takes a great deal of courage to be set apart – To make godly choices when the world around you encourages you to make worldly choices - To use your voice, your words, and your life to speak up for Truth and lead your generation by living out loud for Christ.

During the conference, you will have the opportunity to attend sessions that will help to build your confidence as a speaker and/or as a writer. You will learn how to develop your message, how to dress for a speaking event, how to write a book, how to improve your writing skills, and much more. You will have the opportunity to spend time with women who have walked the path that you are now beginning. You will discover creative ways to share your faith and to introduce friends to a very real Jesus. You will be encouraged and inspired in ways that you cannot imagine.

In addition to a variety of breakout sessions to choose from, you will attend sessions that address the specific issues, concerns, and challenges that face your generation. You will be presented with information that will help you face these challenges with courage and conviction.

Additional Information:

If you would like to receive some “coaching” on your public speaking skills , please indicate on your registration form that you wish to participate in the Next Generation Speaker group. Don't panic… the purpose of the coaching is to encourage you and to provide you with the tools you need to grow in your speaking. This will be a very fun and uplifting experience. Many of the women who have attended She Speaks tell us that these groups are their favorite part of the conference. They spend a great deal of their time together laughing and encouraging each other, and end up with life-long friends!

Here is what you can expect: You will be giving (two) presentations. These presentations should be written before you come to the conference.

1. The first presentation will be Friday night. You will give a 1-minute introduction that should include your name, where you are from, and what brought you to She Speaks. This presentation is designed to help you feel comfortable speaking to a group. You will receive feedback from this presentation that will help you with your second presentation.

2. The second presentation will be Saturday evening. Information and and outline to help you with this short presentation will be provided to you in advance. (We will email it to you as well as post it on the website just as soon as we have it ready.)
