DownLine Summit: Women of Legacy


I am so excited about the DownLine Women's Summit this weekend in Memphis at Faith Baptist Church! I have had the privilege of hearing all the main stage speakers, and they each have a unique and gifted ability to teach in a way that moves your heart AND your mind toward the things of God. To learn more about Vicki Courtney, Carol Kent, Donna Gaines, Ariyana Rimson, and Cheri Holcomb; the schedule for the weekend; and how to register click here.

My husband founded DownLine Ministries, and it has been a great privilege and blessing to watch the Lord grow the ministry and see people's lives changed as they catch the vision for discipleship and experience the radical growth and maturity in Christ it produces. I'm looking forward to emceeing the conference with my friend Ariyana Rimson who co-directs the DownLine Emerging Leaders program. We're going to have a great time as we're refreshed, revived, and hear from the Lord through these women on how to leave a lasting legacy in other women and our own children.

Donna, Vicki, and I will be teaching in workshops on discipling your children in different seasons. I'm looking forward to sharing some things Kennon and I have done even in this young season to be intentional discipling our toddler/ preschool age boys. It's been a learning experience but lots of fun. I'll share the Biblical principles that inspire and guide our day to day routines and many of our daily, weekly, and yearly traditions that keep pointing our kiddos to Christ. We'll talk about discipline and honor and cultivating a home of worship. I've found in this season of parenting small children, we have to keep a vision before us so that we're parenting proactively. Reactive parenting wears you down real fast... I've been there and still fight not to go there! Psychologists say 1-4 are the most formative years in a child's life, and we'll talk about how to lay a firm foundation in our young children. Vicki is doing a seminar on discipling your tweens and Donna on discipling your teens. So there is something for all you moms!

If you can make it happen, this Summit will be a blessing not just for a weekend refreshing but for years to come! Hope to see you ladies there!
